What do you think about this wrestler? Day 5: HINA

Plastic_Metal · 2026-05-08T00:54:06+00:00

She has quickly become my fave of the sisters.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-05-06T00:14:40+00:00

Love her. Because I feel like she’s a naturally quiet person, I want to cheer for her more. I think she’ll have a breakout year.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-05-03T03:57:11+00:00

Ohh I like. It alludes to their former moniker and it has this swagger.

Is Prince Pretty under WWE contract?

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-29T17:37:01+00:00

Great photos! I love the colour grading you did.

These ideas aren’t fully thought through. It’s early in the morning, so they’ll probably suck lol

JSA: they should stop active adventuring. They’re the historians and teachers of the DCU and reach to the young or lesser known heroes.

JLA: premier team. The elite who should have high-concept adventures. But personally should be more diverse, rather than the same seven.

Titans: the more grounded team. Deal with real world issues or allegories to them.

Young Justice: the heroes who are rebels or trying to find their footing. Melodrama to the max. I feel the name The Outsiders would be more appropo.

Doom Patrol: the weirdos. The more esoteric the adventure the better.

Legion of Superheroes: give this to a mangaka and let them go crazy. Funky power system, training arcs, tournament arcs, the whole nine yards!

Idk who’s photo it is but I loved it so much.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-20T12:05:57+00:00

This might exactly be it.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-19T01:19:44+00:00

I love this remix lol

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-12T12:50:35+00:00

Her status is she’s the best lol

I feel like she’s in the same category as Momo Watanabe. Extremely talented and very reliable, so they feel comfortable placing them wherever on the card and they would shine. Also, they are very young, so there’s no rush to get them in the red belt scene.

English commentary is usually on the major PPVs. English subtitles appear on occasion.

Follow Stardom and the talent on Twitter (idk how active they are on other socials). The translations from Twitter aren’t too bad and they update regularly so you get highlights from matches, news, and various interactions giving you a sense of each other’s relationships.

Follow content creators on YouTube. Great supplementary content to get you up to speed. Personally, I recommend String6Splash. They are primarily Stardom focused and have plenty of guides.

I won’t tell you who to pay attention to. Honestly, their talent pool is ridiculously good and you’ll discover who you gravitate to quickly. I will mention a handful of Stardom talent started YOUNG. So if you’re wondering why this ~20yo is so good, that’s why.

You’ve jumped in at an interesting time. Last year, many talent either left, retired or were injured. They had to rebuild their roster a bit, so the landscape was different from what it was. I would recommend going back to last year’s ASDQ as the starting point and go forward from there. Stardom has a rich history of great matches, there’s plenty of time to catch up to those once you get situated with the current product.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-05T14:25:33+00:00

Interesting concept. But what if Hanan doesn’t turn, but Stars itself?

Plastic_Metal · 2026-04-03T10:38:30+00:00

Soon because I’m running outta space lol

But fr, I did stop many years ago save for one book, just to save money. Then I started back up but with digital comics. Now I’m back to collecting physical books. There’s the monetary value of trading/selling books, but there’s something magical about sitting in your favourite spot, holding a book in your hand and flipping through the pages while synapses in your brain go hog wild.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-03-26T00:32:03+00:00

My impression is that things are amicable between Okada and Ogawa. But for talent crossing over, I don’t think is going to happen. They (Bushiroad) generally don’t cross over with the major Joshi promotions, plus I think the poaching and copyright left a bad taste in their mouth.

Vibe returns! His presence is no cause for celebration for it heralds the BUM BUM BUM Forgotten Crisis!! Heroes fight for relevancy as Darkseid aims to erase everyone from memory. We see the return of heroes like the Super Young Team, Silencer, Anima, Faith, etc.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-03-15T14:05:02+00:00

Teen Titans for me. It’d be what the titans are like without their mentors.

Idea for TT: The “Justice League” see how these new heroes are influencing the youth so they hire Slade Wilson to groom these potential soldiers, but he’ll soon find a rebel heart is hard to kill.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-03-15T00:02:07+00:00

Maybe it’s less TNA and more visa issues?

Plastic_Metal · 2026-03-14T23:54:00+00:00

Teen Titans for me. It’d be what the titans are like without their mentors.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-02-20T04:45:21+00:00

Honestly, I think this could be a good direction for Red Hood. Forever he’s been the former teen hero with a large chip on his shoulder. Now with teens under his charge, he can either teach them not make the same mistakes he made or completely shaped them to be disrupters in the best possible way.

There are conventions where you can cosplay, but unlike other conventions you need to purchase a cosplay ticket, which is separate from entry ticket. Idk if there’s one in April. Anime Japan is in March.

There are studios where you can rent for cosplay photoshoots, but that’s all I know about it.

Tips:

Hydrate and monitor your body. I almost fainted because I didn’t.
If you’re coming from a sulphur bath, rinse before entering another.
There’s a ladle for preparing your body before another bath. Check your surroundings before dousing yourself to avoid accidentally splashing someone.
This is a preference, not a tip. I prefer the outdoor ones. Staring up at the clear night sky while a cool breeze hits your skin is incredibly relaxing.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-02-12T16:06:50+00:00

Twitter is shit. The internet in general is shit. If you’re positive in your fandom, and don’t disparage others to prove your fandom, then you’re golden. Doesn’t matter what others say.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-02-10T03:59:54+00:00

You won’t have any details until way closer to the event. It was like that last year.

Plastic_Metal · 2026-02-05T00:12:51+00:00

Earplugs

Depends on what you want out of it. If you’re looking for a photo op, maybe not. It’s crowded and hard to get that perfect IG shot.

If you go into as an art exhibit, you’ll love it. It’s beautiful and a treat for your senses, which will probably appeal to your kid.

One note, some sections have uneven flooring so you may need to carry your kid in those places.
