日本国家柔道队被命名为"哥斯拉日本"

“Godzilla Japan” has been chosen as the nickname for the Japanese national judo team that will compete in the World Judo Championships set to begin on Aug. 25 at the Nippon Budokan hall in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, the All Japan Judo Federation has announced.

日本柔道联合会宣布,“哥斯拉日本”被选为日本国家柔道队的昵称,该队将参加8月25日在 Chiyoda Ward Nippon Budokan 大会堂举行的世界柔道锦标赛柔道锦标赛。

The federation said on Tuesday it chose the name after Toho Co., the studio behind the Godzilla films, took an interest in the nickname that judo insiders bestowed on the computer system used to analyze video of matches — Godzilla, of course.

该联合会周二表示,它之所以选择这个名字,是因为哥斯拉电影公司(Godzilla films)背后的东宝电影公司(Toho co.)对用于分析比赛视频的计算机系统——当然是哥斯拉——的内部人士给它取的绰号感兴趣。

The federation and Toho agreed to join hands to publicize the sport based on the similarities between judo and Godzilla, such as their origin in Japan and image of strength. They are currently considering whether to use “Godzilla Japan” for next year’s Tokyo Olympics as well.

日本柔道协会和东宝公司同意携手宣传柔道和哥斯拉的相似之处,比如它们的起源和力量形象。 他们目前正在考虑是否在明年的东京奥运会上也使用"哥斯拉日本"。
