I feel like they're mostly worked, at least the one where she holds her opponent's head (can stick her thumb in between on impact), but I do get anxiety with headbutts in general since Sakura Genesis 2017

the one that miyu did is def the outlier, most of her headbutts aside from the diving one are pretty safe yeah.

I dig Nodoka's increasingly wilder mullet. Like she looked at Takumi Iroha and went "holy poo poo, YES" but realized she couldn't kick anyone

I think this is the only show I watch where whatever sound mix catches the low, bassy THUDS on strikes, most shows seem to catch the high notes of the slapping sounds, but no lows

TJPW's ring mics are the absolute best part of their production. They capture all of the incidental yapping everyone does as well

it's paticularly good when mizuki, yuka or itoh are wrestling since they really never shut up.

If Mei Suruga and not Mei Saint-Michel was working TJPW, she'd be part of that crew for sure

Other than the ayayayayays, my favorite thing about Yuka's theme is that they absolutely crank the in-house bass for it

Remember when Yuka debuted the springboard 450 against Yuki Aino and Miyu flipped the gently caress out on commentary

The English commentary for this show has been fantastic. Everyone is super knowledgeable of the history and storylines, Brookes has fit right in, and they have referenced a wrestling world outside of TJPW. It makes everyone in the promotion look like stars.
