Holy piss. I shouldn’t have slept and instead watched the debut of Mei Saint-Michel.

What are you talking about, Mei Saint-Michel was apparently found by Sakisama while doing some pied piper poo poo, I don’t think she’s ever met Yunamon.

Sakisama is a rich french lady who has maids and leads a faction called NEO Biishiki-gun in TJPW.

Saki Akai is is a japanese lady who wrestles for DDT in a faction called Eruption.

I hope this clears things up for you

This was exactly what I was looking for. Sorry I wasn't clear. I just started watching and don't think I've seen Saki in either gimmick yet.

I feel like I really need to try and get into TJPW. We saw it when we went to Wrestle Kingdom a couple years back and it was a ton of fun, but where can a lowly American watch it easily (and hopefully on his TV)? Do they live stream events?

They're all on DDT Universe, usually live but not always.

They do live stream events, as well as post the VoD's almost immediately after a show.

It's under the DDT Universe conglomerate which includes TJPW, DDT Pro, some NOAH, some DDT-affiliated indies (Ganbare, Basara). Price is like $8 a month, they're still improving the website

Guide to signing up is here

So far no built-in way to watch it on a TV, I just have my computer screen mirrored via Roku to my TV and full screen it.

I'm watching the SEAdLINNNG show from earlier this month with Yoshiko defending against Aja Kong and Best Friends vs Yuu and Ayame Sasamura.

For some reason they turned down the audience and in ring volume relative to the commentators in the picture and picture and it really detracts from this. Could swear this isn't normal for NicoNico

If you've got earphones then use just the right bud (or some media players let you use mono sound). It plays just the ring audio and not the commentary and makes nico broadcasts way more tolerable.

Yeah, it's a common thing for non-NJPW Japanese promotions to list the affiliation of outside talents. It always stings seeing "Sareee (WWE Countdown)"

Sendai Girls are running Korakuen Hall in three days time. The initial plan was for the show to be a very early preview for the GAEAISM show next April: with the show being seven 1v1 singles matches between a Sendai Girls wrestler and a Marvelous wrestler. However a Marvelous trainee has tested positive for COVID so they've withdrawn from every show for the next two weeks so they lost half of the wrestlers.

The good news is that they've tested everyone in Sendai Girls and they all tested negative. The bad news is that now they have to put together a Korakuen Hall level show without half of the initially announced wrestlers and also without Meiko Satomura who's in the UK. The show is still on and it'll be interesting to see what we get: they do have a regular group of freelancers but who knows what their availability is (they weren't needed for this show) so they might have to find some different people. Looks like Saki Akai is working the show for example - would be her first Sendai Girls show but she has worked SEAdLINNNG, WAVE and Marvelous recently and Meiko wrestled her in DDT over the summer so its not that surprising. If its a totally messed up card it could actually be a really good show: shows like this have a habit of impressing in spite of the situation.

brave to call Meiko Satomura a coward; better make sure she doesn't hear of that one.

Mei Suruga was one of those Sendai Girls regulars pre-COVID: she was initially in their rookie tournament but withdrew because at the time Gatoh Move weren't working other promotions (really annoying since the next round was Mei Suruga vs Mei Hoshizuki which would have been a very very good match) so her randomly popping up again wouldn't shock me. Depends on if there's a ChocoPro or a TJPW show though I guess
