Similar for Washu, just because she's a "super-genius",
she doesn't necessarily know how to bowl.

This is debatable.  So, everyone in the ffml...
whadaya say?  I put the question to you.

Would Washu be a good bowler?

I dunno know, that's a hard question. Washuu is a genius after all and she
may not waste her time on activites like bowling...(Or she may who
knows...:)

Of course who's to say Washuu wouldn't or couldn't cheat. 5:1 that Washuu
would make some personal modifications to the bowling ball that might
result in some postive benfits (and chaos for other people....:). It
would just be so un-Washuu for her not to fiddle with at least the bowling
ball (or the pins, or the scoring machine...:)

I personally bowled in a league before and have taken
classes.  Trust me, even if you know *exactly* where to
place the ball, how to line up and how to deliver, it's
a far cry from actually getting it down physically
(unless you practice like the pros).

Well... bowling a few times myself... some I know
take to bowling alarmingly quick.... others are
slow.  Me?  I'm averaging a meager 140 these days.

I did 5 pin for a few years and I did all right, when I played 10 pin once
I did okay but mostly terrible. I did get 1 strike though which helped
heal the ego a little bit...:)

Also, I'd mention that Kyosuke himself is not
beyond a little cheating when being shown up
too hard (in tennis, skiing, boat rowing and
other events in the past in the real KOR).

Good point.
 
How willing would he be to do that here though. There is no Ayukawa around
so the motivations for him using the power are limited since he isn't
showing off to anyone he cares about. And the risks of the power being
exposued are still there, though every one else their just reeks of
secerts....

Of course male pride may take over in the final frame as he scores a
couple of strikes....:)

Or tries to foul up the girls play...Hmm, ESP vs Washuu ball..:)

Ja ne!!
