Yep, Yuichiro "Jienotsu" Nagashima won the K-1 World MAX 2010 -70kg Japan Tournament!
He also did Touhou cosplay :D

hmm, I wonder... Does he even play Touhou games? :V

Of course he does boxing is all about dodging and throwing bombs.
Anyways I would like to see him try that over here in America.
-
That....is so freaking awesome. And his little group of fans all pull of the cosplays very well. Seeing all of them follow him down to the ring in a pose is pretty cute. And Yuichiro is no slouch either! He pulls off Marisa amazingly well. Just awesome.

It's p cool his cosplay friends were there cheering him on.
Also, getting your ass kicked in a kickboxing match by a guy dressed like a girl is hilarious and insulting at the same time.

does ZUN know about this? he should.
-
To think that my brother doesn't think I'm serious when I say touhou is too manly for most people.

jewtube plz

From Poosh, and from the Deranged:
"From ZUN's twitter:
# おお昨日のＫ－１見忘れてた。東方のコスプレしてるんだっけ？ 一応「一回戦で負けないこと」を条件に許可したけど勝ったのかな？
Ohh, I forgot to watch yesterday's K-1 [world max 2010]. There was Touhou cosplay, wasn't there? I gave my permission on the condition that he did not lose a single match. I wonder if he won?
# 優勝なのかー。すげぇな！
Ahh, he was the champion? That's amazing! "
-
I wonder if anyone also recorded the fights... or did he take of the costume before the fight?

Last Round, but the user have uploaded the whole fight.

That's not "lose a single match", it's "lose in the first round".

Wow. Hahaha.
ZUN must be proud of him!
-
I guess ZUN used his blessing on him to win.
-
It's official. ZUN can create miracles over Twitter.

It's official. ZUN can manipulate reality.
-
Heh. So that guy was beaten by a guy who cosplays as a girl in his spare time. How is he gonna explain that to his kids?
In all honesty though, congrats to him. the fact that he's a Touhou fan is nice too

That's why he cosplays. It's more humiliating for his enemies.

I wonder if he made the same translation mistake? XD

ZUN manipulated causality, obv.

Correlation equals causation when ZUN says so :moogy:

The wrestler.
"Oh crap, ZUN says I can't lose, so I MUST NOT LOSE."
(I know they both speak Japanese but the joke only works if you ignore that.)

On second thought, maybe ZUN didn't have as profound an effect as I thought. With this kind of entourage, how could you possibly lose? If this isn't inspirational, I don't know what is.

Doh, that's what I get for skimming the line. Thanks for the correction.
More stuff about this: Jienotsu was present in his Marisa cosplay at the tournament closing press conference as well, and gives rise to one of the most surreal pictures ever:
(http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2010/images/0328_max_01/ph01b.jpg)
Full report in english: http://www.k-1.co.jp/en/news/2010/0328_max_01.html
One thing I found amusing as well; in the Japanese version of the report, it states Jienotsu's cosplay as "the character Marisa from 『東方見聞録』". (Touhou Kenbunroku; literally "Travelogue of the East", better known to westerners as "The Travels of Marco Polo"). Whether this was because someone fed that to the reporter as a prank, or someone just told him it was from "touhou" and the reporter made that assumption himself, I have no clue. It certainly doesn't seem like the Japanese reporters are any better than everyone's favourite CNN though.
