were her hands and feet all bound together, or was it just her feet bound together and her hands bound together? Because if it's the latter, it's possible to get onto your feet like that (not exactly the easiest of things though).

They were bound separately, but I still don't think it's particularly possible given the time frame. There's just nothing to push off with the way she was tied.

Same opinion as Akonyl: you can get up from there, but it will be far from an easy achievement.

But each second in the DC Universe is about 1 Day in real Like .... If not how do you explain that in about 15 years the time spent in the Anime is about a few months xD

Using your hands to lift the upper part of your body and then push up your entire body while supporting it with your legs to finally get up (Which is the way I'm thinking) would some more seconds, perhaps 7 or 8. So for me it is possible.

I was originally going to use a BTK reference, but now you've just gone and stepped up the game.

I guess I have, but David Carradine is a far more... wholesome reference than BTK.

not that the Carradine reference is particularly wholesome either.

Not at all, but still, some dude who auto-erotically asphyxiated himself is a lot less unpleasant than a serial killer/rapist.

Also, while we were discussing bondage, the contest got sort of close. A come from behind victory would be cool, even though I obviously prefer 3 to 6.

So, about Ran´s bondage scene, is really hard stand up with your hand and feet tied up :(, but there is some anime, and even movies, with damsels in distress that are able to stand up in the same situation that Ran ;D. Besides, remember that Ran is a karate expert, and that kind of people have very good equlibre  ;), so for her is a bit more easy stand up even in the pervert way that Jack tied her up >:(. So, I don´t see why that is a impossible situation. ???

By the way, ¿why Ran always is tied up like the girls in hentai-anime?  ??? ??? ???(remember episode 555)

Go Phantom, Go!!!
