Having lived in Japan for 3 years and experiencing a lot of their culture, I've learned that the reason anime characters yell their attacks is because it promotes a fair, honest fight. Japanese people love friendly rivalries, and the only way to truly prove yourself better than your opponent is to give them every advantage and still come out victorious. Only a truly bad person would try to sneak in for an attack and catch their opponent unprepared. And that won't settle any rivalry, even if they won the fight.
Plus, yelling your attacks just sounds cool.
So, like, I can throw a party balloon filled with 1.7 liters of urine at someone and it will be acceptable, as long as I remember to shout: DANGEROUSLY OVERFILLED PISS BALLOON as I toss it?
Alternate names for consideration: pissengan, urinitron, bakapeepee
EDIT: before you even tell me that I can't go around hucking piss balloons, remember that these people might literally poke me in my actual anus, as a prank. If someone does that shit, I'm definitely piss-ballooning them, at the earliest opportunity.
I think that's just called Jarate and the only difference is the container. Personally I'd go for the jar, might cut them and then you're pissing in their wounds.
