Reading "Pu-Joshi Hyakkei"
I read "Pu-Joshi Hyakkei" by Hiroku.
The overview of the book is as follows.
In recent years, professional wrestling has begun to attract attention once again, while also capturing the interest of female fans. This book is an illustration collection depicting "Pu-Joshi" (pro-wrestling girls)—women who have fallen head over heels for the charm of pro-wrestling—giving their all to perform wrestling moves on each other. It covers a total of 260 moves, ranging from basic techniques like the Cobra Twist and Backdrop to the maniacal finishing moves of popular wrestlers and organizations, such as the Shiranui, Boma Ye, and High Fly Flow! It is a new type of pro-wrestling girl pictorial book that can be enjoyed loosely by everyone from those who know nothing about pro-wrestling to hardcore fans. For some reason, middle school girls are giving their all to perform pro-wrestling moves on each other!
It is a book with a rather unique concept—a pictorial book of illustrations of girls performing pro-wrestling moves on each other—but it was very interesting to be able to see such a comprehensive range of moves.
If I had to ask for more, I would say I wanted to see the movement from the start of the move to the finish. Some moves were drawn in a way that looked like a burst of photos, so if there had been a bit more of that, I think it would have been better (?) because it would have been easier to imagine the act of performing and receiving the moves.
Personally, I liked "001 Shooting Star Press Girl" and "231 Sky Twister Press Girl." By looking at them in a list like this, I realized once again that I like aerial moves.
