[ Ice block vs. Shinji, who will win.....! Definitely not the Japanese, if today's WC match was any prediction.
Not that his reaction time is poor, per se, but some of the cold's started to set in and the snow makes for difficult terrain to traverse through. So when he spots the ice block sailing in his direction, eyes wide with alarm, his futile attempts to get out of the way results only in him sliding onto his knees - his loafers really had not been designed with the arctic in mind - and thus getting slammed in the midsection by a giant block of ice.
The ice block slows slightly, thanks to the laws of physics, but Shinji definitely goes flying—right into his own untouched ice block. One small corner chips off. 1/10 for technique.
RIP Shinji, he died as he lived, a sad corpse of a teenage boy. ]
i can't believe this
