Welcome to a little gif thread I& #39;m calling & #39;affection in Momo no Seishun& #39; aka my take on baton passes and tag team support. Exhibit A - Kotoge& #39;s last match in Osaka Pro Wrestling.
First point - these guys love a fist bump. Love it. First thing they do after Kotoge& #39;s win.
Oh, and they have a real history of being nice but also insulting each other in their post-match mic time. Witness Harada& #39;s speech that day...
So, of course Kotoge does this - the affectionate headbutt.
It& #39;s okay, they hug it out too
Oh but then the flowers. I mean Harada could just give him the flowers. But no, let& #39;s pretend to fight with them first.
I mean these two have a long history of fighting each other - a long history that Kotoge has a BIG lead in btw - but they do hug it out when called for. Even when they are feuding, a bow or wave isn& #39;t uncommon for them after a match, though there are exceptions.
And betrayals, arguments? They cope - this just a few months after Kotoge turning on Harada in 2008. Fist bump.
And an affectionate pat on the head from your senior when you& #39;re angry about losing, always nice.
Which brings us to this of course. Fist bump. I think they just might be okay.
