Champion cosplay kickboxer Yuichiro “Jienotsu” Nagashima has, as predicted, crushed his wretched opponent, though he did not go on to final victory; of more note is that he dominated the tournament with his Macross Frontier Ranka Lee cosplay, complete with an extravagant opening show.
As expected of a man who treats kickboxing as a part-time way of financing his cosplay career…
The closing ceremony saw him receive some prize money (¥500,000) to squander on more Vita figures. The ¥5,000,000 grand prize went to the same sweaty man who won it last time.
In the lead up to the match, Yuichiro was also keenly cosplaying Index, of To Aru Majutsu no Index…

This guy is just too awesome for words :D
Took the words right out of my mouth. (of which there was none due to how awesome he is)
Sadly he didn't win because he got injured (cut) and the semi-final he was in had to be stopped after the cut opened again during the fight according to a news site.
Went down like this:
Yuya Yamamoto vs Yuichiro Nagashima (semi-final, stopped after his wound opened again and Yuya Yamamoto got declared as the winner)
Taishin Kohiruimaki wins against Yuya Yamamoto and sacks the grand prize
Does anyone know what his total record stands at now? None of the usual places seems to update his profile, and I don't really know how to navigate the Japanese official K-1 site...
His best cosplay so far to be honest.
Then again I got a thing for greenhaired girls.. even if they're guy's, that would kick my ass.
Dude. He's friggin' awesome.
But as gay as it is, I wish he'd shave his pits for an outfit like that.
pwetty good dood! X3
That ranka frown picture is win.
So GAR I came.
Sadly though he didn't won the match but he achieved his target of beating Hayato. I was kinda surprised when he crossplayed as Ranka Lee....Not to mention his entrance is wa~~y fancy.
RANKA ATTACK !
By the way, it seems that the video was removed somehow was it.....?
Im sure someone is going to make a show out of this. Crossplay Fighter Yuichiro, combining cosplay with mixed martial arts. It'll be Lucky Star ,if it were made of adult male kickboxers.
I feel bad for the guys that lose to him.
Hmm, his entrance was awesome, though it does look like he spent for more time training than rehearsing (and rightly so), though he can be rather sloppy in his fights. I dont watch kickboxing that much but he certainly did seem to have a lot of holes. Still he's a hard and harsh fighter. Definitely worthy of being the champ.
Ever heard of something called 'fighting spirit' or 'spiritual power'? He's clearly morally superior, that's why he can still beat the shit out of opponents who are technically superior. After all, that's what almost every shonen anime tries to teaches us, right?

i'd hit it.
but first i'd shave his underarms & legs. :P
That guy have balls.
Well... he's a GUY after all...
This man is a true an hero! A thousand internets to you good sir
how is he an hero?
he's a hero, sure
but i think you should be the one to an hero for such a failure
ooohh i love him!!! ^·^
You guys are forgetting that Muhammad Ali mentally destroyed his opponents before they stepped into the ring. His mouth was as much of a weapon as his fist. If Yuichiro is able to get into the minds of his opponents before the fight starts, then victory is his to claim...
Shame he lost in the second round.
Uhhmmm guys, what's the 19 second nico nico video telling me? Unpaid bills?
it says nico hates tranvestites
LOL there he goes again, making a mockery of masculinity.
This is so wrong!
better dont mess with him XD
*facepalm* I-It could get worst. :O
never seen someone so happpy in a long while. hav fun jounggrasshopper
disturbing
he should cosplay as Papillon from Buso Renkin
ugh...there's nothing worse than ugly guys cosplaying little female characters trying to be cute.
That guy is just awesome. He's got balls to cosplay in a ring.
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY EYE!!!
OH SHAWT.
and thus bricks were shat.
I can't find the words the describes the sheer awesomeness of this guy
Youchiro you are my hero!!!
I really admire you.
Thanks, Anon!
rejoices, looks like someone upload the video to youtube :D

This guy just cracks me up lol.
He's too just too awesome~
I don't get it, if he won shouldn't he get that ¥5,000,000 grand prize? Seems he got knocked out in the semi-finals.... =P Unless of course if you meant he won the hearts of the fans, then I might agree with you. =)
Haha, he sure is an awesome person to hang out with.....
Lol, I was supposed to quote RaikenTB's comment.
Oh well....
He won his bout against Hayato.
Probably the guy who became the champion.
Winner probably got a purse of 5.000.000, while the loser of the final would get 500.000
But lost against whom?
That is just so weird.
oh my god. your the last person who should say that. thats like my anti-hate speach arguments on a couple of these+my nazi avatar. like wtf mate?
You are aware that your avatar is Maidguy, Yes/No/Genuflect.
*looks at avatar*
Does not compute
indeed LOL
Perfect comment for the guy holding the 5mil yen
F*** YA FIVE MILLION YEN CHOCOLATE BAR :DDDDD
