The Queen of Villains 2024 / An intimate, sweet depiction of the savage world of ‘80s joshi wrestling

7.8

This series is proof that no matter how silly or brutal things get, pro wrestling can always serve as someone’s sanctuary. Though they sprinkle in pixie dust to make the industry as sketchy, barbaric, and ambiguous as possible, there’s a sparkle to the show’s energy that makes it feel like you’re watching a sweet cinematic drama, or rather a dreamy depiction of the monstrous world of ‘80s joshi wrestling. Ultimately, they do a stellar job conveying intimacy in interpersonal drama and portrayal of combat (even when combat amounts to stabbing someone’s head with a fork), and taken as a whole, makes for such a breezy and mesmerizing pro wrestling drama.
