Promo for Glee’s Japan Premiere Confirms Rumor That the Japanese Are Awesome

Glee is about to make its debut in Japan and just like Americans, the Japanese make promos in anticipation of such events. But Americans don't make promos like this. Featuring two adorably fat sumo wrestling tweens, retired sumo great Akebono and a cast of fly girls, this promo should result in Super Bowl level ratings. As Akebono would say, "So fun, so Fox!"

A lot of news in the actual Sumo world these days. Asashoryu is once again on the verge of being permanently retired for his brainless antics.

now only if we can get the McMA guys to snip themselves... perhaps that would help the image of the sport and make it more family friendly, which would generate more revenue for the McMA industry - creative marketting 101.

if we could only get you right wing traditionalist to stop playing Dungeons and dragons and stop eating cheetos and leveling your mage on warcraft we could bring the image of TCMA back up to status quo out of imaginary land.

I've always enjoyed Sumo and had the chance to see some Sumai when I was in Japan centuries ago.
It is a devastating MA, even in its very restricted sport form.

You should keep up on it. Some very interesting developments in the pro ranks lately.

Sumo reminds me of Shuai Jiao, I wonder the connections.
