>>8006121Both of them hit each other for real because it's meant to look real. I'm going to post the Ishikawa quote again because it's eternal.
>Q: Why do you and Ikeda hit each other harder than any other wrestlers hit each other?>Ishikawa: Because we are not hitting each other, we are hitting the fucking stupid people in the world who think that pro-wrestling is fake like a trained monkey show. They say that pro wrestling kicks are fake so it is not painful. etc. Once they see our fight, they have nothing to say. They watch our fight like a fool with their mouth open with surprise. So our violent fight is not only for our opponents but for the fucking people that make light of BATTLARTS. Our fight is anger towards people who make light of us.
