>>51175338Look up Pawapuro, it's surprisingly fun and surprisingly got no fan-translated version even though there's 30 fckn years of games they've put out! (Yes, I know this belongs in /vg/ or something)Anyway, I'm glad that at least I was able to Google translate my way to understanding a couple of their /jp/-only games, with the help of a little know-how of my very low-level nihongo mastery.
>>51175890No American influence in China.
>>51175338A jap never won the World Series, so they aren't that good.
>>51180541Not sure it I buy that one. Basketball got big in China without American influence. Japan gatekeeping baseball from locals sounds more likely.
>>51175338u need to watch more ohtani and butakami
>>51175890The mainland chinese people skinned and ate all the baseballs
>>51175338>>>/sp/, but I do enjoy talking about how inmu culture spread thanks to a shitty NPB pitcher failing in the MLB
>>51180551Which rock do you live under?
>>51185272They named a nigga Butakami? That's fucked up.
Pigkami

>>51190732Is there any japanese team that won the world series? No, because AMERICA is the only country where people play good baseball.
