Posted April 16, 20214 yr comment_5948010 It's all happening here on discord: https://discord.gg/2tqvKBK2WA The first one will be on Saturday (17th) at 1 eastern, for a couple of hours. Watching some Jaguar Yokota. Join us if you want, either voice, chat, or just listening on while on mute.
April 16, 20214 yr comment_5948037 I've seen precisely one Jaguar Yokota match, a tag from 2004, so I'm very up for this. Is this going to be an entirely Yokota session?

Is this going to be an entirely Yokota session? Yeah, every week we'll do about 2 hours on a particular candidate. We can change that in the future if need be, plus supplemental ones people can do whatever! You are in for a treat with Jaguar!
April 17, 20214 yr Author comment_5948302 1 eastern, we will be watching for our first watch party. If you don't want to voice chat in the discord, you can still watch the footage and use a regular old chat here: https://sync-tube.de/rooms/rLzjEAJga
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948319 Really enjoyed that; thanks for setting it up! Looking forward to more.
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948320 That was great. Thought it was a perfect "meet this candidate (and her peers)" watch with the match choices.
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948329 Yeah, I think the first watch party went really well, an excellent choice of matches. I think it was a useful exercise because Joshi doesn't have the obvious entry points that other types of wrestling do. You can easily start watching puro by using US performers as a gateway, or even someone like Liger who worked a lot of WCW. Same with lucha, where I started by looking up the WCW luchadors. Now, I've a bunch of different names I enjoyed from the footage and that can lead into a number of different directions. Plus it was fun when Jaguar did some crazy suplex variation or some insane bump to see a bump of "Fuck" "OMG!" in the chat.
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948335 Yeah I really appreciated the social aspect of the watch party, and these were really fun to watch with a group. The chat made watching wrestling an even better experience.
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948337 That was my first time doing a watch party, and it went awesome. I've seen those matches before, but it's Jaguar, I'm always down for some rewatches. The chat was great and added to the experience. I will try to do the other ones, especially for the stuff I've never seen before.
April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948344 I dunno about you all, but I'm still reeling from that gorilla press into a backbreaker.

April 17, 20214 yr comment_5948354 We talk about all the moves that were copied from 80s Joshi, but what about all the moves that weren't copied from 80s Joshi.
