When the usually very reserved and respectful japanese are outraged, you know you done messed up big time. Evo should never be involved again.
Every time they start eating sports I think Mike Ross was right.
Daigo got served lol. All there is to it. And they played the rounds they were suppose too. I didn't see a problem with it. Sounds like jealousy. Its not a nfl playoff game.
Japan feels "Disrespected" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣… thats rich coming from the people that have Disrespected, downplayed, misrepresented and outcasted "black" people in their games 🎮 and their anime literally from the inception 🤨… gtfooh👉🚪 with that ish!!! They are salty 🧂 because their gaming God Daigo got PACKED-UP and STEPPED ON in front of the whole world by someone of that said cultur and colour (a "black" man👊🏾!!!) 💯%!!! They can't stand it 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭!!! I say "cry me a river" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ernesto chan , come to my hood , my barber gonna get you a flatop,, it's gonna be lit
evo losing all prestige after this year, wow you won 1 of the 12 evos? good shit bro
DIAGO DESERVES A REMATCH WITH RICE BALL AT EACH ROUND SINCE HE GOAT
Let's be real. Adding more Evos has nothing to do with production quality. Evo France will be run by French staff. If the Japanese can't run an event properly that doesn't meant the French can't. If anything, more Evos will expose which places have the necessary people to run an event and which places don't. From what we've seen twice now, Japan can't pull off an Evo without technical issues. Surprising certainly. But if it means anything it means that Evo Japan was a mistake. It says nothing about Evo France.
The translations could of been better. But if he did translate that part people would be holding diago to those words. They didn't so he gets to continue just a bit more
Ryan got put in a stupid position and should NEVER have been doing 3+ jobs. Evo dropped the ball on this one MASSIVELY.
A massive prize fight with huge emotional story was never translated.
Both players were cheated
They need to start hiring an actual professional translator. Not Ryan hart just cause he's an ex pro
That FT10 was NOT Kemonomichi AT ALL. If you watched all the previous Kemonomichis, you shohld know. It was hust a regular EVO FT10 slapped as Kemonomichi without its spirit.
The "who do you think is gonna win" question is NEVER a good idea. I fucking hate it.
Ryan is fine, I was just confused why Robtv was there, and not a Japanese fgc legend
This whole thing is actually sad.
A lot of us OGs were already watching Daigo vs Mena with weight on it. Like this felt like one of the last sacred walls of the old era getting challenged by one of the new monsters.
But then you find out there was a whole deeper story most of the English audience didn’t even get properly.
During the build-up you could literally see Daigo surrounded by Japan’s elite players, Kawano, Bonchan, etc, all these killers, all pouring knowledge into him. In that moment Daigo wasn’t just one player. He was basically carrying the whole collective brain of Japan. He was their sword.
Then you add the retirement context, the fact this was him questioning if he was still strong, him saying he’s 45 but today he’s at his peak… that changes everything.
That’s not just “Daigo vs Mena hype FT10.”
It reminds me of Vegeta’s speech in DBZ when he talks about being the proud Saiyan prince, watching a low-class Saiyan surpass him over and over, losing his destiny, his pride, everything.
Now imagine that whole speech got translated as “yeah I’m just here to whoop you bro.”
That’s what this felt like.
Mena deserves full credit. He won. He earned it. But the English audience got robbed of the soul of the moment.
And Ryan shouldn’t get cooked for this either. One man shouldn’t have to be MC, translator, interviewer, hype man and cultural bridge all at once.
This was a production failure, I'm sure Rick won't forget this anytime soon.
All this saudi blood money and they can't get shit to function?
Sure.
Wdf is the beast path?
Rick the Hadou has been a plague to the FGC with his attempts to make it e-sports.
It makes sense now how invested the japanese audience now. Its a retirement of Daigo if he losses.
I do understand that was want to retire, but it’s a risk to be out there to lose in any time anyway, and if you want to hang it up, I’d understand, but I would say for him fight the great fight no matter what that’s a real legacy of it
I felt disrespected that it was 5+ hours
for 3 fights
Ok that bit about retiring was huge. Hart not translating it is bad. Ppl saying he got seniority, blabla so gets a pass? Wth is that man, so he can do anything he wants now lol
Aging is no joke. I used to have 2.5 vision in both eyes, but now at 45, I'm wearing glasses. 🤣lol Every day, I can feel that my knees and shoulders just aren't what they used to be.😂😂😂
At this age, competing against the best in the world at that level is truly beyond comprehension. If Umehara quits drinking and starts exercising—moderately, of course, since recovery is so much slower due to aging 😂—we might just see him get back close to his prime.
why isnt this technical, the fgc is full of perfectionist, so they must build it…
I think it may be impossible for this guy not to D ride Punk at every single opportunity.
Damn, I had no idea. I'd be pissed too if I did
Honestly, if i was in a positiin to beat Daigo, I'd have made the match 9-10 close and let him win.
Knowing i could beat him would be good enough for me. Especially with my achievements as an EVO champion. Besides, beating Daigo now IMO wouldnt hold a lot of weight. His reflexes are slower and he doesn't have the same dedication.
Hes dome what he needed to do. This is the equivalent of the Tyson vs Paul fight. Daigo has nothing left to proove.
To comment on production at EVO, as a casual person who gets inspiration to try fighting games everytime it rolls around and someone who played them as a kid. I feel bad for the production crew cause I think they arent getting enough support/short handed and are cutting corners due to limited time to set up and test.
