WingedEagle Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Google translate doesn't seem to be picking up exactly what he's going for. What are the ratings / categories? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Cooke Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 This is neat. Always interesting to get the view of the native fan, especially in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilTLL Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Google translate doesn't seem to be picking up exactly what he's going for. What are the ratings / categories? Given the composition of the lists, it appears "good game" 好勝負 means good/very good matches, and "name game" 名勝負 means excellent ones.

Jetlag Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 To be honest, he doesn't seem to be that different from the people who browse these boards. He probably uses cubsfan's site too. Do you think that is representative of a typical japanese smark? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJH Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 My Japanese isn't great but I think 名勝負 = famous matches rather than "excellent". But essentially... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohtani's jacket Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 名勝負 is mei shobu, which basically means "best match," though I believe it can also be used to describe historically famous bouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He/she buys from Alfredo, which I thought was cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 The All Japan list, especially the "name game" list, is pretty much the Usual Suspects through the 90s. If you took a look at Loss' rankings in the Yearbooks, the DVDVR 80s discussions/results, or the stuff I've pounded over the years, you're not going to find many if any surprises.

NintendoLogic Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I came across this site some time ago. It's an interesting combination of "Meltzer consensus" and "PWO consensus", for lack of better terms. It's kind of neat to see a list that highly rates both Davey Richards vs. Eddie Edwards and El Dandy vs. Negro Casas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohtani's jacket Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 It's his lucha ratings I like. Not a fan of lucha brawling at all. Sangre Chicana vs. MS-1 no more than average and the following week's trios terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
