>>51347180I wouldn't bet my food rationing stamps on it. The man has a patch cycle measured in days but does whatever his insane autism demands. The steam page estimated 2 years of early access, but we're closing in on that and it's still comfortably off.So there's no way to tell a percentage because no one can estimate where the finish line is.

Buzz Rhythm editionThis is a thread to discuss all-female Japanese bands that play their own instruments. That certainly includes Koiai, Band-Maid, Hanabie, Hagane, Lovebites, NEK!, East of Eden, Scandal, Bridear, PaleNeO, Lonesome Blue, and what is left of Nemophila and STMLT.Individual female instrumentalists and singer-songwriters are also welcome.As for the frequently asked questions:>why on /jp/?Because this thread is about Japanese popular culture. Also, the subject is not too far off from other 3D content on /jp/. A good number of artists discussed here are also former (or even current) idols, gravure models and voice actresses.>The band I like includes men. Are they allowed in this thread?Just post about the female members then.>Is this thread only about metal?No, go ahead and post about pop and jazz if you feel like it.
>>51346415I don't see why not - they create new material and tour regularly, are fun and eclectic, and thanks to some early covers have some awareness from the Band-Maid fans. Not having a drummer in the band will be a handicap they will have to deal with, however.
>>51346497>Not having a drummer in the band will be a handicap they will have to deal with, however.Maybe they can convince Natsumi to tour with them. She seems to be quite open to such gigs lately.
>>51346557Possibly - I am waiting to see if LustQueen decides to raise their activity now Fami is also available for a year, and Natsumi just worked with them. Sakitee from STMLT is also available and may be a good fit as well. And they've worked with Kanako before so if they could convince her to join...
As for bands stepping up in 2027... I think Hagane is ready to take on the role as lead melodic power metal band in Lovebites's absence, and Nek! should take advantage of Scandal's retirement. I don't see any band, not even Nek!, taking Band-Maid's spot, they're too different from anyone else, but I can see most of the other bands listed in the OP getting more time on larger stages than before as the venues need someone. And of course there's an entire second tier of all-female bands looking for a chance, and who knows, someone entirely new may break out.
>>51346812Hagane will take Lovebites' spot for sure. Zilqy will try and fail to do the same.I don't think a lot of Scandal fans will get into NEK!. NEK! is too much of a technical band for that.Caramel Candid will continue to blow up probably, but Scandal and Band-Maid fans are not really the audience they are succeeding the most with.
I belive that corporate bootlicking is an important part of japanese cultureJapan was the only Asian country that didn't get colonised or fell under western influnce like India or Chinda did which where historically more advanced and wealthier than japan which was just an unimportant island to the east at the time because it was the only country that copied Europeans and modernisedThey specifically hired prussian military advisors to modernise their military and went through massive efforts to westernies their country and successfully pushed back against russian expansion in AsiaWhen WW 2 happend and the country was fucked unemployment was at an ath and people where desperate to bring some normalcy back into their lifes and fix the countrySo the few companies that existed offered life time employment at the time if the wagie didn't quit or complain about working 16h shifts and everything went back to some level of normalcyThen in 70 and 80 their economy really pushed into gear with tech companies producing high quality chips and japans gdp almost eclised the USat the time japan was still occupied Okinawa was under us jurisdiction and their foreign policy was all about making America happy since they gave them massive credits to rebuild their countryBut when japan became a tech leader all of a sudden they had actuall some sort of political power chips where being used more and more by the military for heat seeking missiles and whatnot and japan produced the most advanced semi conductors at the time and could effect global power by choosing who to sell themits when corporate bootlicking reached its ath since companies like sony produced these chips and massively contributed to Japanes sovereigntynowadays they are just a shit game studio but back in the day where an titan

A thread for discussing and posting pics related to Japanese women's pro-wrestling.What is pro-wrestling? Pro-wrestling is, for lack of a better term, a fake sport. Pro-wrestlers pretend to fight in order to put on an entertaining show for the audience (who is aware that it is all just a show). The goal is to either pin one's opponent to the mat for a count of three or put one's opponent in a hold so they will submit. Matches take place in a wrestling ring, but the action can often leave, at which point the ref, at his discretion and depending on the rules, might start a twenty count after which anyone still outside the ring will be disqualified.Wrestlers compete for various title belts which reflect their status in the company. Since wrestling is fake and everyone knows it is fake, wrestlers are not trying to put on a convincing fight, but rather an entertaining one that tells a story much like you might see in a movie. It's a live action show. Any wrestling company has various story lines that are progressing at any given time.>Stardomhttps://www.wwr-stardom.comhttps://www.stardom-world.comhttps://x.com/we_are_stardom>Dream Star Fighting Marigoldhttps://www.wrestle-universe.comhttps://dsf-marigold.com/https://x.com/DSF_MarigoldComment too long.

>>51347296>why? they're wrestlersDon't know but they did.But back then sentiment was even more against us than it is now and jannies were active in pulling joshi posts. And I'm not the only person who pushed back, obviously, but my strategy for pushing back was always having the OP picrel involve a joshi in the ring, so the jannies would have to answer uncomfortable questions from the mods about why they were pulling as off topic shit that was obviously wrestling related.
>>51347316>implying the mods knowthe fucking jannies and mods on /k/ used to delete on topic gun threads were people were posting their legally owned guns because the jannies and or mods thought they were illegal
>>51347335Nah, I don't think the mods know or even really care. But I'm pretty sure that a woman standing in a wrestling ring is enough for them to have doubts so I banked on that and those threads started surviving when others would get pulled.
>>51347342when the hack happened there were like 9,000 comments on that janny feedback page bitching about the /vt/ jannies and asking for flags on /vt/ and the mods didn't do shit about it (/vt/ has some really bad jannies). To /vt/'s credit, like half of the board, maybe more than half, left during the hack, went to a new site and then stayed there after 4chan came back
>>51347402Based af.Although to be fair, during the hack a good chunk of /pw/ did wind up on Sharty. Had a mod-supported Wrestlemania party and everything. I think whomever runs the place was glad to have us since we were a step up from the usual users of the place.People swore they'd stick around but we all wound up coming back.

Now that I look again, Temako is actually getting ok views. Maybe my worries were unfounded. The wave of that game came and went, so the live viewers went down, but another wave will eventually come. I'm just sad I can't catch her streams live anymore.
