But even in combat sports the loser gets show money.

Then again, I'm trying to apply human logic to boobs and butt sumo. Clearly the two do not mesh together.


You will never get rich relying on show money. Especially since if you only lose, nobody will want to fight or watch you. A jobber keeps jobbing because he can't afford NOT to.

She wants to get RICH. That means prize money. That means winning, and winning BIG matches.

I don't get "it". This isn't a sport, it's a game show, right? If only the winners get paid and the losers only get the honor of exploited. So, she meant bonus, right? There's a baseline pay and a bonus for winners? Right?

"Winners get paid, losers get wet. This is what I want to do!" Episode off. Kind of a record, didn't even make it to the credits.


>> This isn't a sport, it's a game show, right?

it's a gambling sport, normally there are 6 players per match, and people gamble on which are the ones who will remain on the land, and who will have a better score (who sinks more opponents or makes them fall on the land); in case of a time out, the score decides the winners.

>> If only the winners get paid and the losers only get the honor of exploited.

exploited, how? If one football/basketball/voleyball/whatever team, or one player of any single-player-based sport loses, are they exploited too?

>> There's a baseline pay and a bonus for winners?

the scanlations still haven't reached that part, what's known so far is that there are rewards for being the player with the most bets, that with enough points you can advance to a higher rank, and that with higher ranks, the players get to participate in more and larger scale tournaments.

On the new episode, Nozomi had to overcome an enemy Stand!

It really is Kei-JoJo, at this point.

Boobnotism.


Titnosis has better assonance, I think.

Trust me dude if you read the manga you'll see quite a few anime/manga references early on

I'm guessing here weakness will turn out to be that she take her eyes off her opponent too fast when she attack.

(Hanabi, Kusaki, and the masculine-looking girl with the really short hair whose name escapes me)


While its not really that important, her name is Yoshida Atsuko. It was listed back in ep 4

Kusakai is the openly lesbian one, not Hanabi.

Probably along those lines. There were several times where Nozomi messed up because she didn't realize where her opponent was standing.

This was a phrasing choice made by me, I tweaked it to what I thought he meant, but I was incorrect - I'm changing this to Theron's original wording and apologize for any confusion. We'll be more careful with the editing in the meantime. Thanks!

So apparently we're going to get a nipple beam next episode, that's gonna be a thing... Maybe we'll see a return of the tiitypnosis too.

I just love how like every shonen show the attack are becoming more and more out of this world except they all involve butt and are still played straight. With the no windup butt attack (buttdouken, maybe? Great sound effect on it btw) and the butt induced sandstorm.

sorry to ruin your fun but spoiler[there's no beam, that's censorship] , which, well it was either that or a barbie style nipple, since they alreayd censored nipples when they were shown in the manga.

You know, i was browsing my brain over where i had seen Nozomis finishing pattern before. Then Therons description mad it click: It's Mashibas Hitman style! Fast, precise attacks leading into a chopping straight. She just became the Hearns of Keijo!

Even if the rival intros are late, the 8 episodes we've spent with the main girls have made them endearing to the point where I was genuinely angry when they got insulted. I'm looking forward to them coming out on top.

Sayaka's father in the audience commenting "this is not right" is basically all of the show'a detractors summed up in a single sentence, lol. Hell, even I find myself thinking that at least once an episode. I swear, hearing characters say lines like "take your butt to the absolute limit" with the utmost passion and seriousness will never not be hilarious.
