Keijo!!!!!!!!, also known as Hip Whip Girl is an innovative sports manga, also adapted into an anime in Winter 2016, starring characters competing in a sports that can be best summarized as sumo wrestling with butts and boobs. Despite the tasteless-sounding premise, the series fully embraces its ludicrousness and whole-heartedly pushes the boundaries of creativity of what can be achieved in special techniques based on enticing body parts, and things like shockwaves, explosions, buffs, hypnosis, Stands, and much more are par for the course.

Portuguese fans of this underappreciated series have been hard at work trying to work out a real lfie version of the sport, and you can appreciate their progress on their Facebook page:

Their passion has not gone unnoticed, and some news outlet reported on it as well:

Lastly, just today, a video of some sessions has been published on Keijo Portugal's Facebook, with some short interviews of the participants (in Portuguese):

It's good to see people taking a positive approach to the concept and having fun with it.

Surprised how in-depth they've taken this with their concerns about protective gear to avoid injury.

It's doubtful it will go anywhere, but the internet has made it possible for unexpected movements to go, so maybe in a few decades we'll have male and female Keijo competitions at the Olympics.

I've seen this in the 4 Dead or Alive Extreme games.

Also a Simple Series 2000 PS2 game that was basically the same as that series.

We're getting a giant robot fight between the US and Japan funded by Kickstarter. Anything is possible.

"I am the butt of my sword
　　Steel is my body and fire is my butt
　　I have created over a thousand behinds
　　Unknown to death
　　Nor known to life
　　Have withstood pain to create many glutes
　　Yet those hands will never hold anything.

So, as I pray, Unlimited Butt Works!"

Portugal knows what the most important sport of the future is. We should all follow this great example.

Also, season 2 when?
