The feed comes up following the ad break and again more infectiously cheery pop music signals the return to the web broadcast. May is seated much like a news anchor, behind a desk, fake glasses over her eyes, a blazer over her idol outfit, and a stack of paper in her hands. Behind her is a sign displaying the name of this particular segment; and when the music dies down, May speaks up.
“Welcome to Meiko’s Minute, the part of the show where your hostess, me, Meiko, discusses the hot issue for a minute. Remember, PRD Faithful, that if you send us an email or a tweet that your hot issue can be featured in future episodes! Today, however, I’m here to talk about an observation I’ve noticed in PRD’s second field. HARU-CHAN! START THE CLOCK!”
On cue, a timer appears on screen beneath Meiko, counting down from sixty seconds. As such, Meiko now speaks very quickly.
“It’s become common for women, and probably men, to go around acting like they’ve got something to prove and they do that by what I learned is called peacocking. Being arrogantly proud, strutting and buying into self-hype. I’ve been seeing it all over the place, back in GPW with an ineffectual trio we beat, with the tag champs that we beat individually, and even here in Seishin where there is an older vet telling us young stars to get off her lawn, a child not understanding why people don’t take her seriously and refusing to listen to anything or admit wrong, and even a woman giving us a sales pitch on her client like she was selling us a used car.”
“Peacocking doesn’t work; it gets laughed at by anyone who understands. So why do it? Why, Miss Rag? You believe in your client, my opponent, Enigma, and that should be enough, but you make claims like Enigma will win the tournament, will be the only champion, will cure cancer and bring world peace and is it any surprise when no one believe you, Rag? I saw what Enigma looks like and I am aware that after I grab hold of her and throw her around a few times that her only advantage, that she’s fast, is negated. That’s not peacocking, that’s prediction. What is your defense, Enigma, once your feathers are clipped? How can you peacock then?”
“No one ever takes us seriously despite having a near perfect record in our old place. They can’t get past our outfits and our attitudes. Even when we win it’s always some excuse. There won’t be any excuse, Enigma. I’m going to show you and everyone why PRD is no longer a target for ridicule. Your peacocking is going to lose out against someone who doesn’t need to pretend to be good. I’m already PRD Great.”
A buzzer sounds and with it another ad break. The text promises that after the break, Junko will appear. Stay tuned.
