It's mostly built on the women's pro-wres fascination and video games related to that. I'd be surprised to see if they damage themselves seriously enough in this show to where medical attention would be needed, like Wanna-Be's showed. |

Yeah, about that.... I doubt you've seen much of it at all. Probably didn't even watch Season 2 at that. |

I think the point here was to outline to story for us, and who's going to pay attention to that if something is actually happening in the ring?

Do you honestly think anybody will be watching this for the story?

Looks like another tenjou tenge style anime.

That was a little uncomfortable to watch, which was probably exacerbated by my inability to understand the dialogue. For my own sake, I shall assume that she was giving a brief introduction to Heidegger.
Well, now I'm just sad. I don't know much about Heidegger and I just missed my chance. It was also dull to watch, which was also probably exacerbated by my inability to understand the dialogue. I would hope, for the sake of anybody watching this, that they just looped some spare footage together specially for this and they won't pull anything this cheap and boneheaded in the actual show. The notion of lot of stiffly animated boobs on a loop set to pained moans and squeals has a distinct sad desperation about it. Some people, of which Japan seems to have a larger proportion of than most nations, seem to find some kind of satisfaction in seeing or hearing women in states of distress. My reaction is rather the opposite. I think that's what would probably bother me most about this series. I might be amenable to a show about sexy women wrestling, but not like this. So, ick ick eww no, pass for me. |

I couldn't agree with you more in this, actually. I was really psyched to see a wrestling anime featuring strong female characters and some hotblooded competition. Then I see this promo - the beach ball-sized tits, the suggestive sounds, and the uniforms (Because that is what female competitors wear. Riiiiight). My heart sank. I am utterly disgusted by how this show just seems to waste the potential it has to be a great sports anime. |

Joushi pro-wres isn't what you'd call normal competition. What potential? Any series has the potential to be the best, or worst, but it's no guarantee. It could have been a serious wrestling anime but still sucked because lack of decent animation, boring characters, boring fights, stupid story progression, and so on. |

26 years have passed since Wannabe's release and since then I have yet to see *one* anime where buffed & attractive heroines do some real damage in a melee fight. By the character designs and the preview it seems it will be a barbie doll moan-fest where not even one of them has real abs, let alone something akin to a bicep, this is depressing, Mikasa Ackerman has shown your main heroine can look strong/attractive and not hurt potential manga or anime sales, Dropped before it even starts.

Yeah, muscle girls isn't a big enough fetish yet. Because if the show's going to do anything, it'll do it in a fetishistic fashion. |

Can't they at least throw us a bone? Dragon Crown has but one amazon, Senran Kagura has one OP senpai with abs (in the anime), they could likewise have made the mugen-style karate girl buffer since it is supposed to be a real combat discipline (supposedly not designed with flashy moves like wrestling).Meanwhile there is a loli in about one in three animes *sigh* |

First 10 seconds of character animation is giant tits being thrust towards the camera... *sigh*
A show about female pro wrestling sounded interesting. Hopefully they'll actually make a show like that someday, because this sure as hell isn't going to be. |

Going by the anime promo...
The anime version is quite tame in comparison to the eariler drama CD version, which featured a totally different cast. This what I posted about the drama CD version nearly two years ago on this forum:
Shizuka Itou and Hitomi Nabatame, if I remember correctly, were also members of the drama CD cast, though I don't recall who they played. |
