… and i bet you know each and every top player in japan? (no offense intended)
hachigashira is a top guile player. you proly never heard of him because ppl cant read his name in kanji.
edit: just bought my ticket and registered for tourneys (except the console ones, to think back i shoulda registered but then i might need to take a break and play casuals with other players)… see yall there w00t
Not Hachigashira, his name is “Yazu”.
He is No.1 on BP ranking of Guile. (100000BP!) He lives is Fukuoka (far Southwest from Tokyo) and rarely seen in movies. but his Guile will show you unbelievable rush of sonic-boom.
oh nice thanks ODC for letting us know the proper pronunciation! yazu it is (i just checked)
ive seen some of his vids before though, probably trfs… maybe he came to tokyo sometime ago…
Gaaah! I input Hachigashira and I get the same kanji as Yazu. FML.
hahah yeah ive always thought its called that too.
kanjis. serius biznez.
anyway, i assume this time less gaijins gon be around? last was close to sbo so we had all these ppl coming from the states and all…
is spectating an option? and if yes, will that cost anything?
its still 3000(pre-sale)/3500 yen(on the day) entrance fee(+1 drink i think), even to spectate. entering tourneys are optional.
anyway even if you dont play in tourney, people are going to be playing casuals… last time they had like more than 10 setups for people to play on.
From that other thread:
The first list is people who still needs to qualify on the day, only four players are gonna be chosen. Might be from that list, or some other dude who entered the qualifiers.
As for the 2nd list, im curious who the top players going to main in the console chars only tourney.
I’d love to see Uryo pick Rose, but he’s probably gonna use Seth.
Cool, im on the list (Mike Boczar) Dunno why I used my real name instead of my handle. I guess it doesnt matter. I wonder if I can change it when I get there to ElvenShadow. Oh well whatever
Reno, i’m really close to shinjuku. i’m like 2 blocks away from ikebukuro, is there anything against spectating? i would love to watch all this in person.
Edit:shoot sorry i just realized Capps Indigo already asked this question. My fault my fault!
why not just enter? Im far from being a pro SFIV player but it should be fun anyway
i know i should, but my main concern is making it on time. the same day i have to meet some people thats the only reason why i wanted to know if spectating would be cool. trust me i would love nothing more but to play with the pros. i’m assuming i’ll be seeing you there, should be fun being around someone that speaks english and loves fighting games!
This may have already been answered but I couldn’t find it. Why isn’t Daigo participating in GG2?
Thanks for all the info Reno, it is appreciated. Can’t wait to watch vids. 
Daigo is going to France for this: http://www.worldgamecup.com/register/register_list.php?tournoi=sf4s
Ohh, Yazu! Yes, I have heard of him. Being a Guile fanatic, I love his stuff. At one point (when he was “only” Master status), he had an 85% win rate. Just incredible.
Can’t wait to see some footage. 
Your player name has already changed !
Chichimonda Honda huh, hope theres more dictators invading GG2.
wow, thanks!
Tokido and Mago are on that list as well.
