TV Zombie posted:On a new note, here's Nakanishi looking uncomfortable with Oka near some anime. At least Oka was smart enough to bring him to a Bushiroad property event instead of like, Comiket so he could buy hentai: https://twitter.com/chibasyu/status/947713169744584705 Oh god I found Nakanishi's tweets about it: https://twitter.com/nobitokun/status/949579113244770304 https://twitter.com/nobitokun/status/949579365708267520 https://twitter.com/nobitokun/status/949580227654574080 https://twitter.com/nobitokun/status/949627144212168705 (The woman in the tweet Nakanishi's linking to is the star of the property, Mimori Suzuko. She's also in like almost everything else Bushiroad makes. Also is a giant, lifelong wrestling fan - she was the woman who led Tiger Mask W to the ring last Wrestle Kingdom dressed as her character from the show.) Oh no, Oka took him to Akiba, maybe he did buy porn: https://twitter.com/OkaTomoyuki/status/949565830445940736 Barely related, lol: https://twitter.com/aptaube/status/949377553994797056 The Cameo fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Jan 6, 2018 |

Surprisingly that's the only outright perverted thing in his likes. I need to dig up that news story some network did of him in the dojo, his bunk is the most loving ridiculous thing. edit: ah ha, found it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gndr2dDlZJ0 actually, most of this is ridiculous, especially his shirt at the start The Cameo fucked around with this message at 21:01 on Jan 6, 2018 |

Endless Mike posted:Asuka screaming in...Osakan, apparently, owns. Kansai dialect is like the Japanese equivalent to sounding like a New Yorker, which is why it's also like the standard movie Yakuza dialect, which is why a lot of Japanese wrestlers use it. Asuka's just better at it since she's actually from Osaka so she can just slip into it naturally and start yelling and everything sounds like "you fuckstick, I'm gonna string you up by your Achilles tendons and use your dead body as a speed bag".

VJeff posted:I've heard Nakamura, by contrast, speaks with a "country" accent, is that true? Kyoto's a weird city that has essentially it's own dialect - but don't call it a dialect, because they get a little huffy since Kyoto used to be the capital. For like a thousand years. Which meant how you talked in Kyoto was what people thought of as Japanese. (Tokyo has literally only been the capital since 1869 - think of it as if after the Civil War, the Union said "maybe Boston should be the capital" and shoved everything up north, except this was more... an eastward, slightly northward move. Speaking of which, for like $125 you can get from Kyoto to Tokyo in like under three and a half hours, not bad for a three hundred mile distance by train. Considering it takes like an hour plus to go less than fifty miles by train from Boston to Providence here, it's loving ridiculously good.) I've never looked too deep into it, but I also wouldn't be surprised if that's where the language developed the deep-seated passive-aggressiveness that's all over the place. But, yeah, you could describe it as "country". Kyoto-speak is very relaxed, nonchalant. You could as much call it a Southern or country sound, or a California sound, depending on your preference of reference. Either way, it would make more sense for anime dubs to deem Kyoto as the Southern, semi-Texas accent equivalent, moreso than the Osaka derivative of the Kansai dialect, which is what they commonly do. I'm also pretty sure Okada just uses Kantō dialect when he's doing public appearances and cutting promos for the sake of mass appeal (since he is the face of the company and Kantō dialect is considered Standard Japanese), but I have to imagine he relaxes to his normal dialect somewhat in private, which would I believe be Nagoya dialect or Chita dialect (Anjō, his home city, is on the precipice of being along the Chita peninsula; having never really been to the city or having heard much talking in either of those specific dialects, I couldn't tell you which). Pretty sure Kenny's learned straight Kantō dialect. Like 95% sure, he doesn't speak enough for me to suss out any potential deviations from it - and besides, he's lived on the East side of Tokyo forever, so it would have developed in that direction anyway.

Kenta Kobashi still hangs out with people he met in the cancer ward during his recovery. https://twitter.com/FortuneKK0327/status/961756272453304320 Kenta Kobashi maybe owns more as a retired wrestler than he did as an active one.

You're right, it is. So it's actually just Kenta hanging out with a fellow cancer beater. Honestly, seeing him with a shirt on and not looking like a big club of meat threw me off.

SamuraiFoochs posted:Yeah. I'd be fine with him talking poo poo after an awesome NJPW show but he was involved with possibly the worst show of the weekend by the sounds of it. Talk poo poo almost any other time, Kenny, honestly. But pick your spots. Eh, he already worked a better match than anything on Mania two weeks ago, so he's still got a pretty good average going.

Jerusalem posted:Was it Nash who told the story about buying a small but nice home with cash, and some old wrestler telling him,"Well done, you just won at being a wrestler."? The full story is Nash was looking at buying a house with his first Mania payoff or something, and Strongbow saw he was looking at a bunch of different houses and places. Strongbow then tells him "think of the best house you remember from when you were a kid in the town you grew up in, and buy that." Nash looks into properties in the Detroit area and finds that exact sort of house for a good price, his wife likes it too, they put down a whole bunch of money on it and start moving in, and the next time Nash sees Strongbow, he tells him he took his advice. Strongbow says, "now you're not owned by the business."

I like the idea of someone on the internet responding to a Japanese person with "if you don't know what JoJo's is..." when JoJo's is a loving cultural touchstone in Japan, like at One Piece and Slam Dunk and Dragon Ball levels.

From the guy who once accused the Big Boss Man of anally raping inmates with a nightstick Or he might have been referencing that he and the other guards were just kinky, I don't remember how he exactly said it It just makes me think of that story about Amy Poehler and Tina Fey making period and queef jokes at each other in the SNL writer's room not long after getting in there, and Jimmy Fallon being like "ew gross". Amy rightfully flipped the gently caress out on him because the room had dick, sex, and poo poo jokes every three minutes for like forty loving years, he could handle some comedy workshopping about pussy farts And thinking about it, there's a lot in common between those two: both have absolutely zero skill in their current role and yet somehow failed upward into having a top-tier job in it because they're liked by someone with an egregious amount of power.

dromal phrenia posted:I gotta admit, I didn't much care about Kojima when I first started watching NJPW. I didn't hate him or anything, but I figured hey he's a legend that I didn't see in his prime, so I had no nostalgia for him. First rule of Bread Club is always be talking about Bread Club (Also Kojima still owns, remember the G1 match where Kenny wore his house show shirt and tights and forgot the US belt backstage, thinking “this’ll be easy!” and by the end of it his shirt had been torn off of him and he was exhausted because CHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOP)
