The teams are The Magical Sugar Rabbits, 121000000, Kyoraku Kyomei, Daydream, The Bakuretsu Sisters, Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta, VENYU, Marika Kobashi & Raku, Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu, Haruna Neko & Kaya Toribami, Arisuzu and Moka Miyamoto & Yuki Arai.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “CHANGE THE WIND DIRECTION” Results

March 6, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “CHANGE THE WIND DIRECTION”, 06/03/2021
Tokyo Nerima coconeri Hall
208 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Saint-Michel submitted Shiori with the Saint-Michel (11:42).
2. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Yamashita pinned Misao with the Attitude Adjustment (15:02).
3. Nao Kakuta, Marika Kobashi, Raku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Mirai Maiumi, Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo when Kakuta pinned Endo with the Shiden Kai (10:55).
4. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Mizuki and Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Fame Asser (8:37).
5. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku when Tenma pinned Harajuku with the Killswitch (13:09).
6. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh when Sakisama pinned Yamashita with the Academy Award (14:05).

NEO Biishiki-gun wins the first “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament! It was a close one in the final against 121000000. They took it down towards two against one when Sakisama got rid of Maki Itoh with an Apron PK. Miyu Yamashita almost grabbed victory from the jaws of defeat when she hit Sakisama with the Skull Kick then had her pinned with a German Suplex. Mei Saint-Michel broke the pin with a Double Knee Drop to Yamashita and Sakisama was the first back to her feet. She hit the Academy Award to the back of Yamashita’s head for a nearfall then did the move again from the front to win the final.

When NEO Biishiki-gun were given their trophies, Saint-Michel was thrilled to receive an identical prize that her master gets. Sakisama doesn’t care about the trophies but if her maid is so happy to have a matching item then there is something better out there they should get. Sakisama now want the Princess Tag Team Titles! She called out The Bakuretsu Sisters to sell the belts to her but they refused. Saint-Michel then had a tug of war with Nodoka Tenma over a belt but she lost and was thrown to the canvas. She told NEO Biishiki-gun that if they want the titles then they should win them properly. A title match was made for the next Korakuen Hall show on 17th April. Yuki Aino said that they have to beat NEO Biishiki-gun because they couldn’t do it the last time they had a title match when Sakisama and her partner were the champions.

Backstage after the show, Yamashita apologized to Itoh for losing. Itoh was also sorry because Yamashita always supported her but she couldn’t do the same today. Itoh kept thanking Yamashita for teaming with her then started talking about becoming stronger when she comes back. Yamashita was confused and asked if this was the end of their team but Itoh wouldn’t answer her directly. She only said when she comes back, she will become even stronger…

The semi finals saw NEO Biishiki-gun eliminate HikaShio in a rematch from 4th Janaury and 121000000 beat Kyoraku Kyomei. A disappointed Sena Shiori thought her team with Hikari Noa had gotten stronger but they found out it wasn’t strong enough. Noa remembers chasing after Natsumi Maki when they were a tag team and she learned you cannot get stronger just by doing that. So that’s the lesson Shiori should learn from today. They will continue teaming together so they can become equals. Hyper Misao promised to fight fair but instead used her cloak as a weapon against Yamashita. However she couldn’t beat Yamashita and Shoko Nakajima was held in place with the Itoh Special.

Mizuki got blinded by Haruna Neko during the 3 Way Match after Neko scratched her in the eyes. She continued trying to fight but missed dives and tangled with other people not wrestling in the match by mistake. She ended up falling outside the ring and wrestling with Mahiro Kiryu while Yuki Kamifuku beat Neko.

No rope breaks are allowed and weapons are permitted except those considered by the referee to be particularly dangerous.

Yuki Ueno and Yusuke Okada have to be split apart and put on opposite teams again.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “CHANGE THE WIND DIRECTION”, 06/03/2021
Tokyo Nerima coconeri Hall

1. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori
2. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: X & X Vs X & X

We’re down to four teams: NEO Biishiki-gun, HikaShio, 121000000 and Kyoraku Kyomei. Ever since Sakisama returned to Tokyo Joshi Pro for her latest campaign, Sena Shiori has been a regular opponent for her in what has been a one sided feud so far. The other side of the bracket involves two teams both with massive momentum behind them.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GENGHIS KHAN KIRISHIMA PRESENTS TJPW PPV SHOW 3 ~11 VS 11 KOUHAKU TAIKO THE☆BATTLE 2021~”, 07/03/2021
OPENREC.tv

1. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
2. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
3. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
4. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
5. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
6. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
7. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
8. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
9. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
10. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
11. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X

The teams will now consist of 11 participants instead of 12 because Maki Itoh has a scheduling conflict and cannot be on the show. I have no inkling of what the schedule clash is so you’re not getting any speculation here. Team White is captained by Rika Tatsumi and Team Red has Shoko Nakajima as their captain. A lottery will determine who from the roster will be on which team. Each match has a 5 minute time limit and 2 Count pins. If the time expires then 1 Count sudden death overtime begins to determine the winner. The team with the most wins at the end gets the Genghis Khan Kirishima prize voucher.

DDT “DAY DREAM BELIEVER 2021”, 14/03/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Junretsu Vs Eruption!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi
2. DDT UNIVERSAL TITLE: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Yusuke Okada

Okada has stepped up to Ueno, jealous of the DDT UNIVERSAL Champion for being more successful and better looking than him. There’s still a sense of friendly competition going on between them but that could get thrown out the window if the match gets heated.

GANBARE☆PRO “RUMBLEFISH 2021”, 21/03/2021

5. STOP THE Hidaka! Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ikuto Hidaka & Yasu Urano

It looks like Ikuto Hidaka has virtually swept the Ganbare☆Pro roster but Kouki Iwasaki wants another shot at him. They last fought each other in a singles match back in November.

Onryo is a big step up from Shota’s last opponent that’s for sure.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 01/04/2021
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Hardcore Match: Hikari Noa Vs Rina Yamashita

Tokyo Joshi wants to challenge their roster to new possibilities with a series of shorter experimental shows held in front of a small audience. The first of these will be main evented by Hikari Noa and Rina Yamashita in a Hardcore Match! Noa has been wanting to do hardcore wrestling for ages and Rina was the first person she suggested as her opponent. She wants to learn as much hardcore wrestling as she can from her while in return introduce Rina to TJPW.

Two promotion representatives face off in the main event. It’s Ken Ohka from Ganpro against Takashi Sasaki from FREEDOMS. Ohka wants to go one step further after he finally defeated The Aka Rangers and he is willing to go through lighttubes to do it!

The new GWC 6-Man Tag Team Champions have decided to hold off on defending the belts until this show. It was Shinichiro Tominaga’s idea because he does not want to risk losing the titles before they make it to Korakuen Hall.

Wrestlers announced to appear include Moeka Haruhi, Minoru Fujita, Yasu Urano, Miyuki Takase and Ayumi Hayashi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 WINTER ~LOVERS~”, 21/02/2021
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
163 Fans – No Vacancy

1. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Noa pinned Kiryu with the Blizzard Suplex (8:55).
2. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Mirai Maiumi & Suzume when Saint-Michel submitted Suzume with the Saint-Michel (14:28).
3. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo defeated Marika Kobashi, Raku, Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko when Sakazaki pinned Harajuku with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (8:43).
4. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe when Itoh submitted Tatsumi with the Modified Itoh Special (13:53).
5. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino when Nakajima pinned Tenma with the Diving Senton (14:09).

Two rounds in and the big guns of the tournament have mostly all fallen. The Bakuretsu Sisters were eliminated by Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao in a rematch of the recent Princess Tag Team Titles defence. Misao saved her partner from the Killswitch and got rid of Yuki Aino with the Hipami Returns. That gave Nakajima the opening to pin Nodoka Tenma with the Diving Senton. Nakajima still regrets failing to win the Tag Titles and owes a debt to Misao over it so they’re aiming to win the tournament! Also Nakajima noticed that she is moving faster and lighter around the ring than she has been for the last month. Maybe being a superhero for a month worked out for her after all. The Sisters are obviously disappointed over losing and said they will wait at the top of the mountain for the eventual tournament winners. They’ll take the lift up there while everyone else is climbing after them.

Daydream were also eliminated in an upset but the result might be a sign of an upcoming shift in power at Tokyo Joshi Pro. The team of Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh is not a new pairing and their teamwork was something Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe didn’t anticipate. Itoh was lifted up for the Daydream Eternity but Yamashita saved her and dropped Tatsumi face first into Itoh’s head before German Suplexing her. Itoh then took over with a Modified Itoh Special and shockingly made Tatsumi tap out! Backstage, Yamashita & Itoh announced they now have a tag team name. From today forward they are 121000000 (One To Million)! Itoh explained that they may not be able to win on their own, but together they are both a million times stronger. Yamashita came up with other names but Itoh ignored her messages and came up with 121000000 after talking with Yuki Kamifuku.

Whatever bad omen Sakisama sensed yesterday doesn’t have anything to do with NEO Biishiki-gun it seems. They had no problem beating BeeStar today. Mirai Maiumi & Suzume are so insignificant to Sakisama that she only remembers them by their colours, blue and yellow. She also isn’t impressed that the tournament winners will get a trophy because she can buy trophies whenever she wants. She wants a victory parade instead.

Last but not least, Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori made it to the semi-finals over Toyo University Tag. Shiori said her bond with Noa is strong which is why their team works. Kamifuku teased Mahiro Kiryu backstage for losing the fall. She said Kiryu lied to her about wanting to win today. She threatened to leave her unless she promises not to lie to her again and also buy her lunch at the school cafeteria. Only then will they make up.

The semi-final lottery was held later in the evening for the final rounds happening on 6th March. The first semi-final is NEO Biishiki-gun Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori (team name HikaShio). The other is 121000000 Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (team name Kyoraku Kyomei).

A new series of events called “TJPW INSPIRATION” will begin on 1st April. The concept will be an experimental show held every couple of months with a small roster being challenged with new possibilities. The main event of the first show will be Hikari Noa versus freelancer Rina Yamashita in a Hardcore Match! Noa wants to absorb everything that Yamashita throws at her. She also wants Yamashita to go to Tokyo Joshi proper so this might not be a one time appearance.

136 Fans

1. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo when Kiryu pinned Miyamoto with the Spinebuster (9:38).
2. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko when Watanabe pinned Neko with the Tear Drop (10:56).
3. Miyu Yamashiya, Maki Itoh, Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Hikari Noa, Sena Shiori, Mirai Maiumi & Suzume when Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Northern Lights Suplex (9:08).
4. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Marika Kobashi & Raku when Sakisama submitted Kobashi with the Versailles Foot Choke (11:25).
5. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki when Tenma pinned Mizuki with the Killswitch (13:09).

The Bakuretsu Sisters have one goal on their minds in the “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament. They want to cement their status as THE tag team in Tokyo Joshi Pro’s entire existence. The current Princess Tag Team Champions are on track to prove it by eliminating The Magical Sugar Rabbits in the first round! Nodoka Tenma asked for some time to rest but Yuki Aino reminded her that Round 2 takes place tomorrow.

Mei Saint-Michel went into today’s show still depressed over experiencing her first defeat. She cheered herself up by copying Marika Kobashi & Raku’s mannerisms and told Sakisama she is okay after they won their match. Mei’s attempts at doing Kobashi’s Gal poses annoyed Sakisama, who thinks they are vulgar. Later backstage something ominous happened. Sakiama’s rose fell apart in her hands during her post-match interview. She thinks it’s a sign that a storm is coming tonight. What could that storm be?

The tournament is a chance for the lower level wrestlers to step up but Rika Tatsumi thinks her opponents failed to do that today. She wanted Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko to come at Daydream with enough momentum to break them but Tatsumi was left disappointed. Miu Watanabe expected them to have more unique attacks than just sneaker kicks and nail scratching. On the bright side, at least the result showed that Daydream are still a powerful force together.

Yuki Kamifuku celebrates her birthday today by advancing to Round 2 with Mahiro Kiryu. Kamifuku’s advice to her tag partner is to look beyond just winning the Max Heart tournament. Everyone in the tournament is thinking about winning so their goal should be to gain Max popularity!

Tomorrow’s Round 2 matches are Daydream Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh, Toyo University Tag Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori, Bakuretsu Sisters Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao and NEO Biishiki-gun Vs BeeStar. Everyone who lost in the 1st Round today are being thrown into an 8-Woman Tag Match.


Akiyama Joins DDT, Max Heart 1st Rounds, Watase Injured, Ueno Can’t Decide

February 15, 2021

Today a press conference was held by CyberFight to give some big news for DDT and NOAH. On the DDT side, Jun Akiyama has signed a one year full time contract with DDT. On the NOAH side, Keiji Muto has signed a two year contract with NOAH. President Sanshiro Takagi said the signings were made because he believes these two treasures will be the driving force behind CyberFight becoming No. 1 in the pro wrestling world. Takagi originally asked Akiyama to join DDT back in January after having conversations with All Japan at the end of last year. Akiyama held off on making a deal because of his knee surgery and asked to wait until after “KAWASAKI STRONG 2021” to make a decision. As soon as the main event was done and the show was over, Akiyama accepted Takagi’s offer to become DDT’s head coach. Akiyama knew of the risks involved and wants to put everything he has into DDT. Naomichi Marufuji believes Muto’s starpower is important to help make NOAH become a global company. He also has a strong sense of responsibility towards the company after becoming the GHC Heavyweight Champion. Muto said as long as NOAH has the No. 1 wrestler in the industry, CyberFight needs to become the No. 1 organization as well.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT UNIVERSAL TITLE: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs X

There are so many people Yuki Ueno wants to defend the DDT UNIVERSAL Title against that he can’t decide who to pick next. He’s on the lookout for somebody to get his attention.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi

There are only two wrestlers who have beaten Akiyama in DDT so far. Tetsuya Endo and Kazusada Higuchi. Akiyama got his win back from Endo yesterday and he won’t consider himself a deserving KO-D Openweight Champion until he avenges his embarrassing defeat to Higuchi. So that’s the main event of the 24th Anniversary show set.

There has only been one person who has given backlash to Akiyama’s coaching in DDT. Danshoku Dieno doesn’t like the way Akiyama sees pro wrestling which is understandable given how much Dieno has represented DDT in the past. Akiyama welcomes the criticism and invites Dieno to show him his point of view. But he also warns that as head coach he won’t let members of the roster rebel against him just for the sake of it.

5. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) defeated Mirai Maiumi with the Diving Fame Asser (9:46).
*V1 for Yuki Kamifuku.
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) defeated Shin Ultra Shoko & Hyper Misao when Aino pinned Shoko with the UBV (13:28).
*V2 for The Bakuretsu Sisters.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) defeated Miu Watanabe with the Missile Hips (18:18).
*V1 for Rika Tatsumi.

The Daydream showdown marked Rika Tatsumi’s first defence of the Princess Of Princess Title. She survived a Top Rope Canadian Backbreaker Drop from Miu Watanabe then countered the Tear Drop into the Twist Of Fate. From there Tatsumi hit Watanabe with Hip Attacks until she got the pin with the Missile Hips. Tatsumi thought she was going to be too strong for Watanabe but that didn’t happen at all. She thinks that is amazing and thanked Watanabe for fighting her. She will continue to support Watanabe building the bridge between idols and pro wrestling. Tatsumi also has a dream and that is to make Tokyo Joshi Pro bigger. The two of them agreed to continue teaming together as Daydream and they will enter the “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament beginning later this month.

A big battle requires big armour. The Tokyo Joshingers arrived for their Princess Tag Team Titles match wearing new combat suits which left the referee Yukinori Matsui looking confused. The Bakuretsu Sisters tore the armour off to start the match. Yuki Aino cut off Shin Ultra Shoko by pulling her down by her cloak. Shoko freed herself from the cloak and wiped out the Sisters outside the ring with a Suicide Dive. Hyper Misao followed up by throwing a dislodged piece of her Combat Bicycle at them. The challengers had their chance but Aino suddenly countered Shoko’s Northern Lights Suplex into the Venus DDT. She then finished her off with the UBV for the three count. Backstage after the match, Shoko said she will entrust Misao and The Bakuretsu Sisters to protect the world while she returns to the stars. Her month as a superhero has ended and Shoko Nakajima will return. She also wants the Sisters to have her mask while she is gone. Misao is sad to see Shin Ultra Shoko leave already but she still wants to team with Nakajima for the Max Hearts Tournament. Nodoka Tenma promises to win the tournament so everyone will remember The Bakuretsu Sisters as TJPW’s number one tag team.

Sadly for Mirai Maiumi, the Miramare Shock did not happen today. She was all ready for it too with a new look. Yuki Kamifuku had something new of her own to show off, a new entrance song. Kamifuku kicked away Maiumi’s custom steel case made for today’s match and even closed it over her opponent’s head for added insult. Maiumi trapped Kamifuku in the Miramare submission but Kamifuku found ways to get out of it. She ended up winning with two Fame Assers, one from the second rope. Maiumi wonders if Kamifuku delivered her own Miramare Shock before the match even happened. She kept making fun of Maiumi’s rural background and all it did was make Maiumi notice things about her that she never noticed before. Maiumi promises she will deliver the Miramare Shock some day and when she does, everyone will be seeing a new Mirai Maiumi. Kamifuku said was a little worried because her opponent today has a lot more passion for pro wrestling than she does. Mirai watches a lot of famous wrestling matches and copies what she sees. Kamifuku doesn’t want to be a parody so she put more effort into her entire package today so she would win as herself instead of an imitation. She thinks it is better to show your attitude than to talk. A shock happens on its own, it is not something you can force.

The Max Hearts Tournament is on the minds of everyone in TJPW. A lot of the results were signs of intent from the women towards winning the whole thing. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh made their message loud and clear with a big victory over NEO Biishiki-gun. No amount of cheating with roses and silver platters could stop them. Yamashita wiped out Sakisama with the Skull Kick while Itoh pinned Mei Saint-Michel with the Flying Big Head, handing Saint-Michel her first loss in TJPW. Even though Itoh ultimately wants to beat Yamashita someday, she sees they make a good team together. Yamashita agrees. It’s a mystery how their styles are so different but still fit each other. Yamashita is also pleased she won a match against Sakisama. She knows she will beat her in a singles match when the time comes.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits are trying out a new move called the Yukacchi Bomb but they haven’t quite figured it out yet. It involves Mizuki doing a Sunset Flip on Yuka Sakazaki and they both land on top of their opponents to pin them. However the move also does damage to Sakazaki which makes her lift her shoulders and weakens the pinning attempt. Still, Mizuki wants to continue working on the move because it is good for them to keep challenging themselves. It’s a good thing that the experiment didn’t cost them the match because Suzume & Arisu Endo threw everything they had at them. Suzume got Mizuki out of the ring for Endo to finish Sakazaki off. But Sakazaki fought back and got the win with the Magical Merry-Go-Round.

Hikari Noa came out of her match wanting to face Nao Kakuta more often. She also wants a singles match against Yuna Manase. Both Mahiro Kiryu & Sena Shiori were disappointed they’re not at a stong enough level yet to show off their growth to Manase. Raku however was at her happiest. She won the match and got to do it in front of her two “older sisters”. Since Manase is working so hard over in Ganbare☆Pro she keeps thinking she has nothing left to do in TJPW. But there’s more to wrestling than big matches so whenever she can use her connections for a TJPW booking, she’ll look forward to being there.

Last time in Korakuen Hall, the team of Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko lost to Moka Miyamoto. Today they got their win back against her. Neko got rid of Marika Kobashi with the Codebreaker leaving Harajuku to get the win with the Pom Do Justice. The pair want to team up for the Max Hearts Tournament with the team name Harunyan.

TJPW will have a show in for a women only audience at Itabashi Green Hall on 4th April. They originally planned to do the concept a year ago but it had to be cancelled because of the pandemic.

Four days away from Korakuen Hall and the wrestlers involved in the two singles title matches met crossed paths in the main event. Miu Watanabe was the strongest as shown by the finish. She got rid of Rika Tatsumi with the Canadian Backbreaker and pinned Pom Harajuku with the Tear Drop. Tatsumi credited Watanabe for winning today but she won’t lose to her next time. Mirai Maiumi then said Yuki Kamifuku is trembling in fear of the Miramare Shock! Watanabe then included Suzume & Sena Shiori in the show closing speech by saying they will fight with the feeling of challenging for championships at Korakuen.

A new tag team tournament will be held over the next two months. The “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament will determine the strongest tag team in Tokyo Joshi Pro. The 1st Round will be held on 20th February, the 2nd Round will be on the 21st and the remaining rounds will happen on 6th March.

Hyper Misao is looking to recruit more superheroes for the Tokyo Joshingers to bolster up the numbers alongside Shin Ultra Shoko. She brought along custom made masks for Yuki Aino & Marika Kobashi to wear for an audition. They reluctantly went ahead with the idea but ripped them off when the match began.
