Thread of all my articles and interviews so far! I try to keep them relatively timeless, so I hope that people will be able to enjoy the older ones, tooπŸ™

Apologies for the extended silence! I had what will hopefully be the final exam of my life (or at least my university life) yesterday and I REALLY couldn't afford to fail it, so I had to focus for a while. Now all that's left is my thesis, so I should be able to return to normal.

We recently asked Shun about the possibility of Z-Brats repeating R.E.D.'s fate after Kikuta joined, btw. #DRAGONGATE

In our first interview, he specifically said that he could see Kikuta being the one to surpass him in the future, too, though I don't think he expected it to look like this.

It's out! It doesn't cover tomorrow's match, unfortunately, but there's still a lot of interesting info in here so please check it out.

The link should work now, too... My apologies, it's about 4am here. Avoiding overlap with American events is difficult, haha

Sorry for not posting for so long, but we're definitely putting something out before Kobe World. It's going to be 23-26 questions depending on various circumstances, so definitely a long one. I hope everyone will enjoy it.

Hopefully I'll be able to do more writing/interviews after exam season, but rest will have to come first, haha

I JUST updated those questions... Interviewing DG wrestlers is hard, haha, because things are always happening

It would be a bit of an annoyance to get my customary interview thank you cookies to a New Japan wrestler, so I do have a preferred outcome, but either way, I'll make sure that everything goes up before World.

Just pushing through challenges with sheer focus and willpower always sounds like such a great and feasible idea right up until your body folds and you're stuck in bed for two weeks straight I really wish I wasn't this weak, but here we are

Of course I know that reasonably, there is only so many times that you can do several weeks worth of work in a single day until you start having to pay the price somehow, but it's still frustrating

One really difficult part of researching for interviews and such is always figuring out... whether English commentary and the wrestlers are on the same page, to put it one way. You can really mess things up for yourself if you just assume everything commentary says is true.

It also just annoys me a bit on a personal level, sometimes, haha. Like, no, the Z in Z-Brats does not come from generation Z and they have plenty of older members. But a bunch of English-speaking wrestling fans falsely think otherwise now, because of the US shows

But even commentators who know a lot about the wrestlers will sometimes just throw stuff in for flavor and it can be hard to tell when they're doing that versus when they're actually revealing backstage knowledge

I am only now slowly realising that my bachelor's thesis will inevitably entail making several middle-aged German media & communications professors read a bunch of WON and Fightful articles

Given that one of them already has very strong opinions on regular sports journalism, I am very interested in what she'll think of wrestling journalism, haha

It's kind of wild, the way that getting further into journalism has emotionally divested me from wrestling. I recently got asked how I felt about the upcoming DoA cage match and my immediate reply was "Nothing in particular, I'll just have to adjust my questions afterwards"

In general, stuff that 3-4 years ago I would have lost my mind about is now just more news. It's a good thing for my work, of course, but I do sometimes miss the excitement of being more of a fan.

Then again, given what apparently happens when I meet people I actually am just a fan of, it probably is for the best in several ways. I talked to one author for 1 minute and nearly fainted, it was terrible, haha

Handed in my final paper (and non-thesis presentation) and now all that's left is 2 exams and my bachelor's thesis. I can't wait to have the time to write articles again, lol
