It's kinda like a DDT undercard, but extra loud, like, it literally is an entire promotion based on shouting, haha. Basically, if you saw their offer match on the CyberFight festival show, that's a really good representation of the things they do.

Also occasionally features some people you've seen in chocopro, like cherry, hagane, fujita, and asuka, as well as being home to former TJPW standout Yuna Manase.

Chie and Yunamon are both absolutely made for Ganpro.

This could be the most one-sided fight since 1973 when Ali faced an eighty-foot tall mechanical Joe Frazier. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think the entire Earth was destroyed.

Lulu vs Brookes is gonna sweep, and rightfully so

ChocoPro's first post-Emi match is now available on Wrestle Universe from the GanbarePro: "THE SHOUTING PROMOTION!": https://www.ddtpro.com/universe/videos/10294

The 2nd match is YunaMon vs Chie in a fisheyed in-ring battle against a reassuringly familiar blue surface

Here's my review of the match:

An okay match. Really good in the opening where Chie managed to convey her ChocoPro character very well and it felt like a high speed cartoon version of a wrestling match. Both got pretty blown up early on in the match and they lost a lot of their character and speed. The crowd was very forgiving but the match dragged and lost the comedy that would have worked to their advantage. I'm not sure the fencing chops spot works in a ring at Chie's current level of muscle strength.

I hope that Chie and Yunamon can work on their cardio so that their comedy can last throughout the match or...maybe that just comes with experience. I really would like them to do well in various promotions.

So curious about Chie's music now.

CHOCOPRO #145: THE WITHOUT YOU ERA BEGINS AND I'M SCRAMBLING TO GET THIS ONE DONE ON A WEEK NIGHT. DARK TOO GOOD
WATCH LIVE ON YOUTUBE HERE
Time: 10am (JST) / 2am (BST) / 6pm (PDT) / 9pm (EDT)

STARTS REAL SOON!

Below is Super Fan Dogglesnake's match guide for tonight from Reddit. Found HERE

quote:

Combination shuffle! White Comaneci battle!

Tokiko “Otoki” Kirihara & Baliyan Akki VS Antonio Honda & Masahiro Takanashi

Baliyan Akki & Otoki!? The Ace & the Super Rookie! It's been a while since these two paired up (Not since episode 19!) but Akki & Otoki have been long time foes. They are actually one of the most common singles matches in ChocoPro history, due to how spicy the bout always seems to be. How will they work together when fighting on the same side once again? These two might have striking power on their side, but they'll need that and more to handle what is sure to be an unpredictable pairing: Anton & Masa! Masa is a booze loving counter fighter who has an amazing level of expression. Where do you think Mei gets all her cartoonish reactions from? Antonio Honda is a story teller that hides his true high level of wrestling ability behind a layer of shenanigans and cruel pranks. Don't forget the wild card in this scenario: Anton & Otoki usually work together as the villainous “Comaneci” team! (Both Black & White forms) Also there is the ancient fox spirit sealed within Anton, but surely Gon needs time to recover after what Lulu did!

Fan Favorite Fight! Style vs Energy!

Dragon Ninja (Sayuri & Chon Shiryu) VS Warm Caterpillars (Mei Suruga & Chie Koishikawa)

Dragon Ninja traveled a rocky road through Season 8, but that is the past now! The new season gives this dynamite team a fresh chance to prove themselves. This pairing is like a fantastic action movie come to life: the Crimson Kunoichi (female ninja) of the Fourth Generation Sayuri and the Kung Fu Specialist Chon Shiryu! They are a stylish force to be reckoned with! Sayuri is able to perform tactical Jutsu's, vanishing and even running across the wall! She has finally hit her legendary bodyslam, and the sky is the limit for this red clad ninja. Sayuri is one to watch...she made a big impression in the Tag League, even if the flashy team didn't claim it! Chon's artful offense is both beautiful and deadly. How can he move like he does? He finds a way to be both lighter than air, and stronger than steel. The dynamic fighter almost seems like an acrobat when he moves across the Square. Dragon Ninja is a lot of fun to watch all around. Look out for their synchronized movements! Will this be the season of Dragon Ninja? Let's Bodyslam!

More Warm Caterpillars action (the name comes from one of Mei's many alternate characters, Caterpillar-chan. It is her state of being wrapped in a blanket, not wanting to leave bed!)! Mei Suruga & Chie Koishikawa are often together outside of ChocoPro...and occasionally do their own frantic “Kawaii” streams together that involve cooking, fun outfits, and fire hazards! A pair of energetic, loud, talented youths (“Apple Genius” Mei Suruga and “Too Much Energy” Chie Koishikawa) the Warm have proven themselves to have a surprising level of natural synergy! While this team was formed out of necessity (due to Akki's injury at the time) they ended up being one of the most popular combinations in the series thus far. Running wild strategies and employing a barrage of strikes and submissions (including a team bow and arrow!) this team is sure to fire up the audience. Mei is a pin specialist with a goblin streak (meaning she isn't afraid to break your bones in those brutal submissions!) while her partner is a speedy striker (known for her cheery greetings) with more stamina than a well hydrated football team. Let's get WARM!

Visual Battle: Makoto returns!

”Beautiful Cosplayer” Sayaka VS ”Oriental Doll” Makoto

Prepare to be a fan of ”Beautiful Cosplayer” Sayaka, a model and gamer who has been on the rise since the day she returned to Ichigaya! She is most known for her “gunshot-like” forearm strikes, picture perfect dropkick, and surprisingly smooth pin & submission transitions. She already has a unique one of each! When she is not hanging out with Minoru Suzuki at PILEDRIVER, she's training her mind & body for battle (on any plain of existence)! Despite her low level of experience so far, she is absolutely marvelous in the ring. She has one of my favorite looks in the promotion, a straight forward singlet! Sometimes simple is better, and a throwback set of gear is always gonna win me over. While she hasn't been around in ChocoPro as long as the other Fourth Generation rookies, she is making up for lost time quickly. Check out her skills in Season 8's Tag League (in her team Mi Sayaka with Minoru Fujita) or along with Otoki in “Othello”! Sayaka will definitely leave a lasting impression, on both you and her opponent's chest! (Although this time she might not want to get into a striking contest...Did you know Makoto suggested wrestling to Sayaka?

Makoto is back! Another member of Las Fresa de Egoistas returns to Ichigaya (the other key frequent being ASUKA / VENY)! It has been such a long time since the Oriental Doll appeared in ChocoPro (Not since Emi Sakura's 25th anniversary all the way back in episode 41...by the way, today is Emi's 26th anniversary!), though she knows Ichigaya well. This adaptable freelancer makes her own way in the world, appearing in many promotions across the Joshi scene. Makoto brings with her the legacy of Emi Sakura, though the Oni's aspect comes out in different ways you should be able to understand rather quickly. Makoto is deceptively strong and unmercifully brutal when she needs to be, not being afraid to bend the rules in her favor. Her elegant demeanor and poise might fool you for a moment, as will that innocent (though intense and confident) smirk. While she possesses an impressive toolkit befitting the eternal rival of Riho, watch out for her scary striking ability. She has an air of refined prowess, as one of the original trainees of Emi Sakura (and also Tajiri!)...Makoto is not someone to take lightly! Good luck, Sayaka!

Welcome to Season 9!
