Hey!

A sight I’ve only seen in New Japan Pro-Wrestling and the Ashikaga Shogunate.

So why are Yoshitsune and Inoki strangely linked!?

The Ashikaga regime = I really like the new theory.

Was professional wrestling an imaginary existence…?

Professional wrestlers are entertainers, but they are not fictional characters.

Nanboku-chō Deathmatch

Sponsor: “Do you really think you can get by without Inoki?”
New Japan wrestlers: “Indeed…”
Inoki remains, Shinma Toshiyuki is held responsible and fired.

“The royal family of North Korea: ‘Do you really think you can manage without Yoshitomo?'”
The warriors of the North: “Indeed…”
Takanori Takashina was held responsible and fired for remaining loyal to Yoshitsune.

Reality ≠ Pro Wrestling
Unreality = Professional Wrestling = Taiheiki

When you are cornered
Try to sever my neck!
It seems like something Takauji would say.

Wrestlers are beings of fantasy.

A Basara daimyo is basically just a fighter who wants to stand out, so they are almost like a pro wrestler.

Collection of Famous Quotes by Ashikaga Takauji
Try cutting my neck!
Is there anyone who thinks about losing before they even fight?
If you have energy, you can do anything.

A man whose scale is so grand that it looks good from a distance, but getting involved brings nothing but trouble.
That is Antonio Inoki.

My younger brother won, but since the older brother and younger brother are like one body, it makes sense to say that Yoshitoki actually won.

Is there really someone like Takashi Suneo in New Japan?

Magazine direct shot?

I can’t see my bright future!!

My younger brother and Takashi are both blindly trusting Yoshinori, and it doesn’t seem particularly strange in this manga; it’s all about Yoshinori’s achievements and rewards.

If Inoki appears in next week’s commentary, I’m definitely going to laugh.

In the end, Inoki was too strong as a wrestler, and the guys around him got scared and shrank back.
If you think that Yoshitsugu’s strong presence as a samurai ultimately intimidated those around him and made them retreat, then it makes some sense.

I will! Do professional wrestling in this shogunate!!

It’s frustrating because Inoki’s method feels more realistic than a brainwashing beam.
Well, in later generations, it might be said that Inoki was firing brainwashing beams as well.

You have to think about strength, not logic or ethics.

The squid seems tough.

Well, the shogunate is just a gathering of samurai after all.
At that time, the samurai were just attention-seeking, narcissistic fighters, like professional wrestlers.
It has a high affinity with professional wrestling organizations, which are gatherings of professional wrestlers.

Stop the rumors about Yoshitsune pouring money into strange ventures!
Well, it seems like they would do it…

The theory of Takauji = Inoki is interesting because it also fits the theory of Toshiaki = Shinma.

Wrestling has a script, but…
Running a pro wrestling organization doesn’t have a script, you know.

You know that pro wrestling was born during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, right?

Shinma Kotobuki “I believed in Anton too much…”
Takarashi Nao “I trusted Lord Ashikaga too much…”

In the pro wrestling hell edition, I laughed at the scene where Kimura, who lost the hair-cutting match against Inoki and ran away without getting his hair cut, had to have Shinma’s head shaved instead.

Niima Kazu “I still like Inoki-san.”
Takashi Naru: “As I thought, I like Lord Yoshimitsu.”

Are you saying that in later generations, Inoki will be treated as someone who exuded a strange brainwashing aura?

The Inoki Q&A is just too much; he’s such an overwhelming charisma.

It may be that Inoki acted on his own to venture north because the soul of Yoshitsune residing within him whispered to go north.

Is the Hojo family Rikidozan?

Rikidozan is not Minamoto no Yoritomo, is he?

It seems like there was an intense angle in this scene.

It was said that Yoshitsune’s actions were incomprehensible, but thinking of him as Inoki really makes it click.

Don’t underestimate Tough’s provocation.
“No joke, I could write ‘What is the true identity of this man…!?’.”

In the future, Inoki may be remembered as an enigmatic figure like Yoshimitsu.

Is Mr. Baba not in the Taiheiki? What about Riki?

Does Sonshi want to retire or not?

When I compared Antonio Inoki and Ashikaga Takauji
Choshu Riki’s life overlaps with Sasaki Doyō.

Did Inoki reincarnate as Yoshimitsu?

Toyotaka might also be found in the Taiheiki.

It’s an eye-opener…

Was the Taiheiki a book…?

Why is there such an incomprehensible collage?

So, that means Sonshi was a professional wrestler!?

A new truth about professional wrestling has been revealed again.
For now… let’s just prepare.

With an imperial decree, anything is possible!

Is it a imperial decree?!

Pro Wrestling Superstar Legends = Taiheiki

One possibility, considering it without divine power, might be that the younger brother didn’t want to let go.
Even without mentioning divine power, we are brothers.

Simply put, at this time, Kiyonori is on the Southern Court side and as the shogun, he has the largest military force, so no one can oppose him.

To be serious, it seems my younger brother never really thought about taking over and managing the world in place of my older brother.

Since this is not a proper pro wrestling thread, I’ll ask: Are the processes of coups and conflicts in pro wrestling, from start to finish, all scripted?
The feeling that decent adults shouldn’t engage in corporate takeovers or brawls clashes with the feeling that such things might happen in professional wrestling.

I’m getting a bit tired of this, to be honest.
It’s fine for this person to be unreasonable, but the development is so incomprehensible that it has nothing to do with this person.

Somuji… has incomprehensible behavior and fails in organizational management, but is charismatic and strong in battle.
Inoki… although there are incomprehensible actions and failures in organizational management, charisma and professional wrestling are strong.

I’ve been through a lot with Antonio Inoki, and even though I was tossed around by him, there are people who ultimately participated in his caregiving in his later years, so he must be someone with an indescribable charisma.

It is famous that at this time, Ashikaga Takauji said that the man who had failed to seize the world had risen well.

It’s like New Japan was managing at a Muromachi period level.

What you’re saying is incoherent, but since the one in trouble is the disliked Naoyoshi, I guess it’s fine!
Let’s ride the big wave of Yoshimitsu!

The matter of Antonio Inoki being reborn as Yoshimitsu.
It seems like there might be something like that.

The character of Naoyoshi in the drama Taiheiki is so perfectly suited as a man who missed his chance to take the world that it’s interesting to watch, although it’s tragic.

Shinma Toshio has passed away… I learned about it through this kind of thread.

It’s amusing that Inoki and New Japan can offer a certain solution to the interpretation of Ashikaga Takauji that has troubled historians.

First Chief Steward of New Japan Pro-Wrestling, Hajime Shinma
Second-generation butler, Katsuji Nagashima

I understood the Muromachi period in New Japan!

Power struggles and factional disputes have existed throughout history and across the globe.
One of the few organizations that can follow the chaos of the Kanno Disturbance is New Japan Pro-Wrestling.

After all, it’s no wonder that Nobunaga, who operates logically even as a super genius, becomes popular.

Sonshi Bombaiye

When looked at calmly, it is indeed true that both Ashikaga Takauji and Antonio Inoki are just nothing but trash.

As Inoki’s influence waned and indie promotions and shoot wrestling flourished, New Japan began to show signs of decline, marking an era of professional wrestling’s warring states.

After the genius Nobunaga and the prodigy Hideyoshi transformed and took control of Japan.
The beauty of the story in which the studious genius Ieyasu establishes a stable government.

Killing Rikidozan and killing Hojo are the same thing.

The collapse of the organization due to my death is a bad ending, as it clearly leads to the complete downfall of the Toyotomi family’s successor organization as well.

I wonder if Takauji was thinking about it…
For the sake of the world and for the sake of people…

There were times when the conflicts of the samurai were likened to the yakuza as a group of martial men, but professional wrestling organizations also have a surprisingly high affinity and their episodes are famous, so it’s convenient.

The management of New Japan Pro-Wrestling was a complete mess due to extremely rough estimates.
The Ashikaga shogunate became chaotic when Takauji granted the same territory to multiple people.

Why didn’t Akiko Yosano kill Takauji Ashikaga?

It seems like the two people below are fighting, and I was supporting one of them, but my younger brother won.
Well, I’ll decide on the reward.

It seems like there could be some strong-willed founders, right?

I felt that while I valued the affairs of the world, I didn’t understand the human heart.

If you look closely at the bottom left part, it’s an acrylic stand, isn’t it?
Why is there such an acrylic stand?

What is this guy?
