This is the "chorus" part from the the second video most popular video when you search Wrestling Series by Popular on Nico Nico Douga on NND. Uploading this because you need a VPN to see it otherwise and you never know when Japanese companies will decide to delete all "explicit" content in order to appease the credit card companies.
@ion288 Gachimuchi posts are allowed here. Please do not tag/reject non off-topic posts with off-topic.
All of those posts are either parodies or fanart of the characters, not live-action footage like yours. That's like saying that scenes taken straight from the Super Sentai series should be allowed because we have active posts from that franchise.
Real life pornographic photos or videos, such as Western porn actresses or Japanese JAV idols.
Real life photos that have nothing to do with anime, manga, or videogames.
Low effort or unoriginal memes.
This upload fits at least the first two criteria, and possibly the third. And if you think this isn't explicit enough to count as pornography, I'd counter that live-action footage of a guy having his crotch grabbed and being spanked in his underwear is close enough.

Unless the rules on this have changed since I read them around 2011, the rules regarding posts featuring real life photos/videos are that they are allowed if the people in said posts are important to Japanese internet culture. That's why we have several post featuring photos of Zun and posts featuring real footage of people from Manatsu No Yo No Inmu. Gachimuchi is one of the oldest pillars of Nico Nico Douga making it extremely important of early 2000's Japanese internet culture. I see you joined Danbooru in 2023 so you might not be aware of this exception to the rule. Considering your quote "And if you think this isn't explicit enough to count as pornography, I'd counter that live-action footage of a guy having his crotch grabbed and being spanked in his underwear is close enough." It sounds like might be young enough to not even be aware of Gachimuchi and/or it's cultural influence on Japanese internet culture. Either that or you just straight up don't know who Billy Herrington was if you're going to describe him as just a guy getting his crotch grabbed. That footage has been used for countless MADs throughout the last 20 years, describing it as just "live-action footage of a guy having his crotch grabbed and being spanked in his underwear" is tantamount to describing a Van Gogh painting as just oil paint on canvas. If you can find evidence to the contrary of that rule being revoked, then I will relent.

Fair point, though those are uploaded very sparingly. It should also be noted that no Zun photo has been approved in seven years. The four uploaded after that were all uploaded by the same Contributor.
I acknowledge Gachimuchi's innfluence on Japanese Internet culture would save it from the second point. The same can't be said of the first.
Five deleted posts, all of the same person, three of them being identical except for the background, and all tagged off-topic. Zun is the better example to use.
I'm not counting any posts with photo insets since they all contain at least something more than just a photo.

I have been here since at least Kill La Kill first aired, though I only started paying more attention to how the site actually works a year before I created my account so I would have a strong head start. And I've always been aware that certain things that would be normally rejected are allowed in small doses (again, your post is the only one with live footage of them I could find on this site, and the only one with things like crotch grabs).

I'm older than you, at least. And no, I don't know much about them outside of what little I've seen on here. I don't watch MADs or browse the Nico websites. I just have some knowledge about the anime and video games I enjoyed over the years. Not everyone your age is going to draw from the same reference pools.

I described him as such because that's what's being shown in the video: a guy in his underwear getting his crotch grabbed. That detail is more relevant to the first point than his name or how important he is. I don't know whether that would be enough to ban the video (I'm thinking not), but it still seems dangerously close to the line.
If you can find evidence to the contrary of that rule being revoked, then I will relent.
I'll let the Approvers decide whether it should be tagged off-topic. I'm not fighting to keep it on or anything, just noting that the content of the video makes it seem that it would apply based on the guidelines. If there's any debate about its topicality, it's better to leave the tag off. But that doesn't mean it's likely to get approved.

A fair response, thank you. Also I'm sorry if I came off as rude, I've been a fan of Gachimuchi for a very long time so I can get very passionate when talking about it. Even more so after Billy Herrington's death.
