----------------------------------------
Oop and the fun continues. I do wonder if they are going to use any new submission moves from pro wrestling besides the Boston Crab for a conclusion in the future. Intense match~

I'm glad she didn't start off as some amazing prodigy and win her first game. They even showed that the last throw wasn't as bad as it could have been. The first match was pretty intense. Oops look at me talking about the plot. Nice oppai though.

Those 100 throws she had to endure looked painful as hell, and that moaning just made it so cringeworthy. But her debut match was alright, I wish she didn't give up though, personally, it made all that training seem like a waste. And that preview suggests that she is going to lose a lot, so this doesn't look like it'll turn out good, but it might be interesting to see how she develops.

Intense episode, it's tough seeing her having to lose. But not until she receives training from Misaki does she get better in her matches. So far spot on with the manga though suit designs are a bit different but thats fine.

I couldn't careless about the fanservice but shit. The progress is fast as shit , nigga you need to slow down. The only thing I'm glad is that , they didn't make Sakura op and make her win her first debut and so all.

anyway , waiting for the tities in blu-ray 8DDD

Underdog anime.

I enjoyed this episode, they had some realistic thoughts put into this: Sakura doesn't auto win; Wrestling moves are real actual moves, not some random crap like "Fire-ball slam",... Of course, some oppai wouldn't be anything bad xD.

And yes, watch with headphones on, especially if you have other people coming over.... Horrible mistake if you didn't. But yeah, this episode had that aspect toned down a bit.

Wow, interesting really thought they'd go the boring route and she'd win her debut match but she lost pretty easily. A lot less dangerous moaning this episode. XD...:(..;P

Won't be dropping, to be honest just wish she'd have more personality atm I really have a great bod but nothing else vibe from her. What this needs is some life outside the ring perhaps.

I don't think my bones would be able to take 100 throws like that. I might not be able to stand up after 20.

Good episode. Good thing she lost, too.
I still stand by my post in the episode 1 thread that Sakura should have challenged Rio to dance and sing on stage with her. Maybe it'll happen at the end of the series or an OVA. Who knows.

Look at those splits and squats.. plus when she fell down on her back panting just add some jizz and you have hentai already

It seems we're also guaranteed a shower scene every episode. I'm glad she didn't just straight up won her first match because that will be too easy and unrealistic. I'll give this show a props too for using real wrestling moves and correct terms.

Crying out, she was tormented from the start as expected. lol Surprised to see her cleaning the toilet. Glad she passed the test. Congrats, Sakura. Characters (even that silver haired wrestler) are likable. I liked it when the opponent shook hands with Sakura at the end of the match.

That was so out of place in that training montage.


They were trying to see if she would quit. Hence seeing what she is made of. So they made her do all the shit work and then take a beating.


On topic hopefully as the show moves on the comments will die down with the hate i mean come on.

Kinda bummed that she lost, but this is how it should be at the start since she is a complete amateur. Can't wait to see her evolve from an underdog to a dark horse.

I can't help cringing when she screams in pain. I keep on expecting for her bones to break or at least to pull a tendon. Seems like there would be some injuries.

This was at least an entertaining episode.

In certain games, in order to get "good CGs" you need to keep on losing.

Man that trainer looks more like she teaching Jujitsu than wrestling.

A hundred throws for someone who wants to go pro???????That's cruel , even in the WWE divas doesn't do that kind of thing.

Not in the WWE, or anywhere else in the US, Canada or Europe for that matter, but in Japan, it isn't that unusual. The Joshi (female) wrestlers in Japan go through way more stringent training regiments than pretty much all other places.

Actually a much better episode then the first one.

Only thing I don't understand are those 100 throws. Okay, she managed to take 100 throws but that alone doesn't decide you can decut as a pro after 'only' 3 months of training.

that's a thing that bothers me as well. her screams are so... awful. it sounds like she gets tortured so badly. it makes me cringe every single time.

but i'm glad she lost her first battle. during the whole training she seemed so op that i thought she would win her first battle.

She's actually quite strong, I bet she could have won her fight. The problem is that she's a noob, and I think despite all her determination she just doesn't have that "killer instinct" yet. She's probably also thinking too much, which is slowing her down.

I need to adjust my judgement and expectation of the anime after this episode. At first I thought it is just a fan service anime but in fact there is heavy focus on determination to get strong and competitive spirits. The hardship Sakura went through in training and testing may have been wildly unrealistic but would have looked quite in place for many old-style sports manga. And it is only natural that she would lose her first match after turning pro (in fact from the trailer she is going to lose and lose and lose). Of course all the moaning and screaming of the seiyuu and the erotic angle and animation are still part of the game, I cannot deny that this anime is quite a bit more than that.

Also the way it portrays the pride and team spirit of big idol group (obviously modeled on AKB48 with its election of center) is very close to the ideal as espoused by such group in real life, which makes me think that the author of the manga must be an AKB fan...

This is NOT out of place at all. If you are a newbie in such gymnasium, you get to do a lot of the chores which include cleaning the toilet.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.
