~ CHRIS & DREW MASTERPOST ~

putting together a list of matches available online featuring chris and drew either teaming together or against each other bc i have no life! and also for my fellow chrisdrew heads bc we gotta stick together.

some of these links will be behind a paywall, but i will try my best to find options that are not!! they'll be in order of year and organized by promotion. i have not been able to find any of their matches pre-2017, but i will continue my search until the day i die.

Konami Krazy Racers, known as Konami Wai Wai Racing Advance in Japan, is a kart racing video game developed and published by Konami. It was released in 2001 for the Game Boy Advance, making it one of the early titles for the handheld console. The game is a kart racer, similar in style to the Mario Kart series, and features characters, items, and tracks drawn from various Konami franchises.

The game includes a variety of playable characters from popular Konami games, such as Goemon from the Ganbare Goemon series, Gray Fox from Metal Gear Solid, Dracula from Castlevania, and Power Pro-kun from the Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu series. Each character has unique attributes that affect their performance, including speed, handling, and acceleration, providing a varied gameplay experience depending on the player's choice of racer.

The racing mechanics of Konami Krazy Racers include typical kart racing elements, such as drifting, item collection, and track obstacles. Players can pick up various items during races, which can be used to attack opponents, defend themselves, or boost their performance. These items include homing missiles, bombs, and speed boosts, among others, adding a strategic element to the racing.

The game features several different modes, including Grand Prix, Time Trial, Free Run, and a multiplayer mode that supports up to four players via the Game Boy Advance link cable. The Grand Prix mode involves competing in a series of races across various themed tracks, aiming to finish with the highest overall ranking. The tracks are inspired by the games from which the characters originate, offering a range of environments and challenges.

Visually, Konami Krazy Racers employs a colorful, cartoonish art style with sprite-based graphics that were well-received for their vibrant and detailed design, considering the technical limitations of the Game Boy Advance. The game also includes catchy, upbeat music, with tracks inspired by the respective Konami franchises, enhancing the nostalgic appeal for fans of those series.

I've always liked this game for its responsive controls and tight handling, making it accessible for players of all skill levels. Additionally, the variety in character abilities and track designs provides a good balance of challenge and fun, ensuring replayability. Despite its similarities to Mario Kart, I praise this title for its originality in character selection and the integration of Konami's diverse game worlds.

Overall, Konami Krazy Racers offers engaging gameplay, charming presentation, and the novelty of bringing together characters from different Konami series into a single racing game. I consider it a hidden gem on the Game Boy Advance and one of the most interesting racing games available on a handheld console outside of the Mario Kart universe.

[fagcrisis]

while were on the subject. i understand that stardom might be hard for some people to jump into because of the storylines and also the lack of english commentary but if u wanna watch more joshi i rly recommend tjpw!! if you pay for wrestle universe you get it along with ddt noah and ganbare pro (or u can hmu me for less legitimate links) and it has english commentary on like, shows in tokyo and big events. commentary is by chris brookes and drew parker who are kind of just random men who happen to be there but its fairly good (u shld trust me on this on3 im a commentary freak) and the storylines and stuff are very easy to just jump into. also suzume is there she is a bee

WOOHOOO!!

Ive been learning Japanese for a little over two years now. I’m so so so proud of you!!

It’s a challenging language, but it’s so rewarding when one day it just clicks, and you can’t stop thinking in two languages haha! 😵‍💫

Pro Tip: if learning on duolingo, click the あ on the bottom toolbar.

Do not start grammar and vocab until you can write AND read those symbols!! Both Hiragana and Katakana

Knowing your two alphabets is CRUCIAL!

Hiragana helps you to read “Native” Japanese words. すし(Sushi) みず (water) ごはん (Rice),

Katakana helps you to read “borrowed” words. アメリカ (America) トイレ (bathroom/toilet) アイスクリム(ice cream!)

When it comes to Kanji, do not touch ANYTHING below the first set until you can count to 99 confidently. (I’d say 100, but it does not follow the same rule as the other numbers below it!) The others are taught to be used to read names. This is because the first three are used as symbols for the numbers 1-3!

Here’s what they mean: 山 (やま/yama/mountain), 口 (くちor ぐち/kuchi or guchi/mouth), 田 (たor だ/ ta or da/ rice field) 中 (なか/naka/inside or within)

Naka reads like this:くつはかばんに中です (Kutsu wa kaban ni naka desu/ the shoes are inside of the bag) but you’ll get to this MUCH later on.

Kanji is the HARDEST part of Japanese other than conjugation. Those little buggers are SO SIMILAR?? I mean, for example 大(big) 犬 (dog) see that little stroke there??? They’re almost identical! Ahh!!!

When learning grammar, this little fucker (affectionate) right here —> 。

This is the only punctuation you get. I’m dead serious. Sometimes for exclamations you can use a mark, but other than that no. Questions are indicated by か at the end of every sentence.

For example: 今何時ですか。(ima nanji desu ka?/what is the time right now?) the か indicates a questioning intent in your phrase, meaning you don’t need a mark.

This was probably clear as mud, so if you have ANY questions, need help with anything, or need some exercises to practice, feel free to shoot me a dm, an ask, or tag me!

No matter how hard it gets, don’t give up! In no time at all, you’ll be able to write long sentences with lots of kanji just like this! 今は八時九分ちょうどです。(ima wa hachiji kyuufun choudo desu/ it is exactly 8:09 right now)

I believe in you!!!

私の友達をがんばれ！ (Watashi no tomodachi wo ganbare!/you can do it my friend!)

Ignore my progress of the alphabets in these photos oops- I started on Duo, then took a face-to-face class.

I learned how to spell sushi in hiragana which is a big step for me because I’m always struggling with hiragana—

So anyway check this out

Sushi

すし

So proud of myself

Jackie! What's a good way to watch ddt pro? Is their streaming service international user friendly? I've been falling down a Takeshi Masada hole and I need to know more

hello slap i HIGHLY recommend wrestle universe!! i'd say they're p international user friendly for the most part..they don't typically have english commentary on non-big shows from what i've found, but that really doesn't bother me tbh. plus they also have tjpw, noah, and ganbare pro wrestling on there, so you really get your money's worth imo!
