(Mods if this is in this wrong place, please let me know and move it… it’s about fighting games so I thought it should go here.)
Super Battle Opera is coming up, and our great players from Kuwait have traveled to Japan 1 month before the tournament to do some praticing. Maan, one of the major members of the Kuwait fighting game scene, went along to support our 2 contenders for SBO, Ganoon (sakura) and Nox2 (guy).
Maan is writing a Journal and posting pictures and information about the trip, and I thought it would be cool to share with other fighting game enthusiasts because it’s really detailed in talking about Japan, the arcades they’re going it, and the people they’re playing against! They’re playing against lots of big name players in Japan such as Fuudo, Daigo, Mago, and lots others! Here’s a picture that was just posted:
(bottom arcade Maan, mid arcade Nox2, top arcade Daigo)
So check it out cause it’s really an interesting read!
I just read the forum post over on White Tower. Nice read. Seems the guys could at least hold their own against some of the big names too. Will be interesting to see if that transitions into the big tournament! Good luck!
well, I’m salty and jealous…our “Community” can’t even gather in one Place to play some casuals. all we ever had were ONLINE and it’s laggy as hell
I’ve seen Nox2’s Guy Videos and he’s Guy is super good !
i wish them good luck at SBO
Well Kuwait team is out of SBO. They managed to beat a US team Banana Ken/hsien, but then played against Daigo/Iyo right after that. This is the youtube clip:

Our guys are calling fowl @ the SBO organizers. Making us and even the US team play an extra match when there was no proper seeding conducted and no other teams had to do this. Furthermore, they put us against Daigo/Iyo right after that. Some people think its really fishy and guys are saying Maan will go into detail about this soon.
This might be a bit off topic but what’s the food situation like in Japan. Any halal places around? The lunch picture looks like some arabic joint. (or turkish)
