“Watch out kids, there is a group of pedophiles over there!”
The above image is a scene from Rurouni Kenshin. In this frame the sumo wrestler is taking two young girls to safety, protecting them from seeing the commotion the characters in the backdrop are involved in. Unfortunately for the viewers, his mawashi (sumo belt) is not visible in the frame.
Welcome to Japan. The place where it is normal for gay porn star wrestlers, who are also transformers, to chase lesbian rabbits in yellow steamrollers. Why?
It is something to do with an Initial D racing anime parody with Billy Herrington, the gay wrestler who attained notoriety in Japan through the video sharing site Nico Nico Douga, chasing Kagamine Rin (a Vocaloid personification) in a steamroller.
You’ve been warned, you cannot unsee the video below. Watch it at your own risk!
Shinya Aoki defeats David Gardner in a Dream 7 Welterweight match. Aoki has Gardner in a back mount but strangely Gardner raises his hand to wave to the crowd yelling “Hello Japan”. At that moment Aoki wraps round the rear naked choke for a submission victory.
With the ensuing result it would have been more appropriate to yell “Goodnight Japan!”.
I like Aoki’s post-match interview: “I think David was waving his hand to the audience, saying ‘Hello Japan’ during the fight,” speculated Aoki. “Maybe he thinks he’s on vacation? But I’m here to get the job done, so I choked him and finished him. Hello Japan!”
