My matches of the month for May are up! Features a lot of ChocoPro, some old lads headbutting each other and more! Give it a read if you're into that kind of thing.

the US fucked up so bad you got footy fans on here defending a referee

[YUNA @yu7girl]

先日、試合後にVENYさんとツーショ撮っていただきました💖
引っこ抜かれた前髪も一瞬にして直るのがわたくしの強みです🎶

[Mei Suruga 駿河メイ🇯🇵 @Mei_gtmv]

今日はカホ＆練習生でリング練習でした❣️
#ChocoPro
カホは身体で覚えたり真似っこするこが
とても上手だと思う。
教えてないのにりりりんGO踊れてたり、
メイをそのままトレース出来ちゃうくらい🤣

なので人に教える時は、
動きを理解し直してから言語化してるはず。
途中でうぅーん？ってこんがらがる事
多かったんだけど、中学生になったカホ、
どんどん伝え方が上手になってます！

足を高く上げるんだよーと言ったと思えば
窓枠ジャンプの時みたく上がるんだよーって
その子がわかり易い例え出してくれてて…

好きなことを積極的にやる子って
知らないうちに成長するんだね😭
感動と同時に、これからカホから発せられる
輝きを見逃さずにいようと思いました⛵️

たぶん2026年だけでも
止まらなく成長するだろうから、
大注目してね！！メイは目見開いておく！

The Only Gaijin In The Village - Iain Maloney

Surprisingly, I found the book about a guy from Aberdeen, and has lived in Edinburgh, who moved to Japan relatable.

It's a bit overwritten, but it avoids a lot of white-guy-in-Japan-memoir pitfalls.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

New year, new book thread.

Children of Ruin - Adrian Tchaikovsky

I preferred this to the first. It still has that almost intimidating world building, but I felt it wasn't as clogged down in it.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Yardstick for Failure - Ivo Graham

It must be nice to be famous enough to be asked to write a book, even if you don't actually have an idea for one.

[Shutts @Shuttsapalooza]

A truly stunning bit of selling yourself short here from someone with 154 international caps

[相撲関 @SumoZeki]

The Sumo Association’s archive project has finally reached the September tournament of 1985, which of course includes one of the greatest matches of all time. It remains the only bout in which I’ve seen a punch thrown.

Hoshi vs Terao

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Veny and YUNA should have a run teaming together.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Spike is getting over with the Senjo fans. She's getting good reactions.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Chi Chi and Manami are really good together, they should do more with that pair.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Miyu got a really good reaction for that challenge.

[Burning Ham-Eater @Chris2KLee]

"You will be visited by three spirits"

[The Puro Pourri Podcast @PuroPodcast]

NEW EPISODE!

The penultimate episode of the World Cup of Ladder Matches is here, it's King of the Mountain 2005, and it's time for Monty Brown to take us all down to the Serengeti! (There are apparently also four other people in the match.)

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

I am fond of them all, but it's probably a good thing for Senjo that they have YUNA as a buffer between Oka and Minami for the next generation of Senjo rookies.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

My MOTY is Oka trying to start the car.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

The bulk of this episode seems to be an Oka, Manami and YUNA roadtrip, which is perfect.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

@PuroPodcast At least 3 Japanese people I've drunkenly told about it know it exists, which is definitely worth more than 1 Meltzer.

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

I've decided I'm going to try all the trails on Mount Takao (there's not that many, so it's quite a short-term project) and ticked another one off this morning. The advantages of not drinking on a Friday night.

[deirdre @dkeane16]

really sad about anthony head!! always really loved this story where he invited a fan of his to his farm for the day when he heard they were having a hard time after coming out as trans

[Stuart Iversen @Iversen83]

Lead singer of Chat Pile tonight very endearingly spent the time between songs listing off his favourite Japanese directors.
