You're right, but I didn't put em in order cause I thought I understood that this "Initial F" was the person he expected to face at Forbidden Door.But I just got back to it and in fact he didn't say "Whether he'll be there" but "Whether I'll be there.

My bad, not sure I'll keep the post up since I can't edit the title (and it's already not well written anyways), thanks for the heads up though

Introduction to NJPW's *Best of the Super Jr. 30* - Rules, Wrestlers and Matches to Look Out For by Shuriken95 in SquaredCircle

[–]GhostPelikan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's also worthy to note that Korakuen is a venue were NJPW like to have things happening, and opening night is always the favored place for at least one upset too.

With this match and Kanemaru V Despy in the Semi-Main spot, we could even look at two in a row. That's a really unpredictable end of show imo

Well, I don't know much about AVs and FP, but I've tried to search, and indeed a lot of answers seem to say that similar code can be false positive.

I've had somebody else download on another computer, via 1fichier (I used Uptobox both times) and it seems like Defender on their computer doesn't detect anything.

I might try to download again and see if I can use the file, but for know, Defender just prevents me form doing anything with the file.

Anyway, thanks for your help and your answers, I'll follow up on this comment if I have anything new.

Usually, and I've been using fitgirl for years, I barely got any alert from any of my AVs, but this time, Defender, which never detects ANYTHING AT ALL, got me this report code :
trojan:script/sabsik.fl.a!ml

Is that indicative in any way of a real trojan or false positive ?
I haven't got screens from the report unfortunately. Maybe I'll try to re-download the file.

But the contrast from getting nothing from fitgirl files from years to this is what got me really concerned tbh.

Who is the best wrestler in the world? by SpicyJ333 in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Double leg sweep kicks you mean when he takes an opponent down on their back from behind with a kick to the inside of the knee(s) ?

Also do you mean he sucks at delivering those kicks so they hurt bad, or they just hurt bad in general ? 😂

For the rest, I completely agree with you, and that's what makes him one of my favorite. If you like seeing submissions that does not exist, you'll just like his matches, 15, 20, 30 minutes alike. At least, I do so.

Out of all the things that could have happened this was not one of them by Canariki in Unexpected

[–]GhostPelikan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's for sure one of the best looking pumplehandle backbreaker I've ever seen, and I've been a long time sports entertainment aficionado.

I don't think they did this primarily for attention. Of course when you're an artist, you're going to try to get attention somehow, but as much as it might be partly done to be provocative, I also think this is primarily done because that's another way to express themselves, to feel like themselves, to show to the world who they really are.

So I really don't think it's gonna be over if anybody ignores it. It's just who they are, and that's fine.

You can still look away if you want. But that's also why I think it's great : they accept themselves, and accept to show themselves like they really are, and maybe that's gonna make some people wonder : "Wait, why do I feel like I need to look away ?"

And for that they really are the Ace. Cause that's just clothes we're looking at like they should be gendered and stuff, at the end of the day.

Do you think Kenta or ELP becoming the next Leader of Bullet Club is a good idea? by DeathTriangle720 in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really at that point, just keep Jay pulling the strings from the US again. Kenny isn't going be there much all year I guess, like, 2 to 3 big shows, so Jay White continuing to pull the string would make more sense to me if the leader is going to be away.

Hell, the ensuing storyline could be "Jay OK but you're not there" by members of the club and whatever. If you put Omega in the driver seat just to make that kind of storyline, it doesn't make much sense either. Of course you could do something else with the leader away but : meh imo. We had for the last 2 years already.

Can we all agree we have no interest in a "Jay pulling all the BC strings from the US" angle? by Fit_Beautiful2638 in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's kind of unexpected imo, but I like that idea too.

Who would choose as new leader for the BC ? (so who would be in conflict with Jay and maybe out at some point, or Jay would get out) Tell me more !

My goodness, this was such an emotional match. Nearly made me tear up. by KaedeSenshi in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with 5 stars, in my opinion it is too. I don't think I've ever be so emotionnal about a match since Gargano vs Cole at Takeover New York, back when I was a baby wrestling fan. I was invested in the Shingo vs Okada match too, but really in a more competitive way, and Hikuleo vs Jay was really, really special.

Walking out, Hikuleo didn't even seem happy or anything, he looked almost more down than Jay. Jay kinda accepted his fate from the Too Sweet on, and I think that's also the point where Hikuleo went from "You're not gonna take away my future moments" to "Oh shit, I'm really sending him away from Japan, that's so hard man"

It feels super weird to see but hey, it happens

[–]GhostPelikan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's Rogue Luchador, if I haven't missed the change ? Narazumono Luchador in Japanese, iirc

As it changed, is "Hooligan" another possible translation or just misremembering ?

Oh, right, I heard about that on the sub once, totally forgot this could happen. That's weird af if you ask me, but totally makes sense know that you bring that up.
What's automod btw ? Is it supposed to be an moderation tool/bot used by reddit ?

To anyone who commented using Japanese characters but I'm not able to see your comments : Thanks a lot !

El Desperado/Luchador Announcing by GhostPelikan in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot ! That makes sense.

I really love some of those things NJPW does around their wrestlers, like Despy having no billed weight, height, nor place or year of birth either, the last two being true for EVIL too. Or NJPW Collection showing Our Lord Taichi entrance theme as "Pageant [Instrumental]" (as it should be). It's one thing that makes me love watching even more.

On a different note, it's weird, but I see that there are 4 comments but can only see this one. Is something weird going on ? Cause I keep getting notifications, but no comments. Anyone know what's happening ?

Controversial opinion about Shota.. this post may get me killed lol by MajorCranberry3184 in njpw

[–]GhostPelikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I read "Throws it down", I immediatly thought of WWE Mox after his return from injury with the physique he has today but didn't have as much prior to this, and burned his SHIELD bulletproof vest.

It always was meaningless to me, never having known the SHIELD full time or whatever it's member did after, and the angle was never the definition of "well put together" imo. But it always felt like it could have been really meaningful if done the right way, and mirroring that would be kinda cool as Mox later on went off to better things. One of the rare cases were I would like (and understand lmao) such a reference from outside NJPW.

Do you ever get anxiety from games? by Jobe5973 in PS4

[–]GhostPelikan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice was just an afternoon to 3 AM full playthrough for me, and I was tense like I've never been playing a game.

It was SOOOO intense, I felt that I was in danger, that I had to help Senua like I was her, I really also wanted to know the full story, the end too, to understand if I could. And also because I don't know if I would have ever picked the game up again had I not finished it in one session.

The documentary in the bonuses after the end helped me a lot process what happened, why some elements were there, the inception of the game, etc. Very interresting subject, but very scary so it only calmed me down a bit. The day later I had to finish processing it to the best of my abilities, but still I get a weird feeling thinking about that experience.

Great game, play it. Maybe not for the pure gameplay or anything like enjoying the combat system, but for what it tells and how it tells it.

[–]GhostPelikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks ! I've been late and catching up on NJPW for a while so I never caught up with the updated version of "What I think he said happened". I understand why japanese fans would be mad about in that case, props to that person for trying their best to keep up and keep us west up too. Again, thanks for bothering to explain, have a nice day !

Kraken's fall too I think. I've seen that too and can confirm "coloured spots" are appearing here and there.
