Hello SquaredCircle! Welcome to our Weekly Discussion Thread!
What have you watched lately? Seen any great matches? Have suggestions for things to watch? Anything not getting covered in other threads that ya wanna fill people in about? Questions about promotions, wrestlers, ‘the business’ or more?
Feel free to post below!
(Reminder, this thread can and will contain spoilers for possibly any show. Spoiler tags are not required in here, but if the show just happened try and keep spoiler talk it to its respective discussion thread for the first day).
Ooo thank you for posting it. Been waiting for it to come into ye ol port of call (along with a few other well overdue things) but no one’s gotten to it up yet.
<This spot reserved for eventual review of show!>
THE CARD (no spoilers) for whoever wants to know before hitting play.
Edit: Ok I need an authority to tell me if it’s pronounced sue-kay-bon or skee-bon, or if its an English vs Japanese thing cause to my (in all likelihood laughably inadequate) knowledge it should probably be skee-bon but I keep hearing it both ways from people involved including the commentary guy at the start of the video and my ADHD is getting triggered over it lmao.
Matches haven’t started yet but I wanna applaud the venue choice. It looks much better than the last show, hopefully the lights won’t give me a stroke this time.
Edit: First match over. I’m still gonna be grumpy about the flashing lights on the 3 count/submission, but at least they aren’t aimed right into the fucking camera this time. That being said I hate the lighting in general of every damned Sukeban show lol.
Edit: *looks at card*
Sukeban: “Thank you for joining us Konami-san.”
Konami: “Arigatou gozaimasu.”
Sukeban: “So here in our company, everyone has a unique identity. Who would you like to be?”
Konami: “Konami.”
Sukeban: “Ah sumimasen. I may have misspoke. Everyone plays a new character based on old gangs, so here you’ll have a name different than the norm. What should we call you?”
Konami: “…I’m fucking Konami.”
Sukeban: “…understood ma’am!”
The above is my permanent head-canon.
Edit: *watches time be wasted by a guy playing with a yo-yo, thankful to be playing Simcity 2000 at the same time*
It’s an English vs Japanese thing. Both are correct. Just like “Yah-mahsh-tah” and “Yah-mah-shee-tah” for Miyu Yamashita. It’s more an accent thing than a pronunciation thing.
Figured, just wasn’t sure.
I dunno, bruh… Homie has mad yo-yo skills… I can dig it.
Oh 100%, man had skills.
But if I paid to watch the show I’d also be pissed lol.
