1. Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated Yuki Aino with a Shoulder Block (9:35).

Haven’t we done this already? We have! But the first performance of “HYPE! 3 ~MY UNIVERSE~” back in June did not turn out to be the complete vision Hyper Misao had for the show. She wasn’t in the right frame of mind at the time which led to her making some decisions she wished she could go back on. So a second performance was put together and it took place today. The story is largely identical to the first performance with two major differences to focus on. For the sake of saving space I’m only going to include the new parts here. You can click on the link at the start of this paragraph to read the story as it went the first time around and work in the new stuff from there.

The scene with HIMAWARI and Tetsuya Koda that explains the power of the ring bell was extended to include Miyu Yamashita and Hisaya Imabayashi. In the scene HIMAWARI and Ms. X-shita (Yamashita) were two joshi wrestlers on a double date with Koda and Imabayashi but the men were acting like know-it-all jerks (they think pro wrestling is rigged!). So Yamashita intimidated the men by crushing an apple with her bare hand right in front of them and then dumping the remains into a beer mug that Chika Nanase served them. HIMAWARI then scared them off by hitting the ring bell.

The other big changes are for the finale. The end of the story gets rushed through because it’s running behind schedule so Yuki Koino (Yuki Aino) cuts off Urahime (Uta Takami) before Urahime could ask if she can join the Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling Academy. The story ends there and Misao walks out as planned to reveal what was going on. However this time the video explaining what happened is different.

The incident where a mystery man in black abducted Misao actually did happen which also meant Misao and Aino really did swap bodies! During the intermission Misao (in Aino’s body) found found Aino (in Misao’s body) next to the side of the road with no memory of what happened after the abduction. They focused their attention back to the show where Misao told Aino that she is the main character and is getting an important wrestling match for the final act. Aino saw who her opponent was in the script and objected because she has no connection to this person. However Misao convinced her to do it. They then accidentally bumped heads again, causing them to return to their normal bodies. However the bump also knocked out Misao so Aino had to go run the rest of the show by herself. With that out of the way it was now time for Aino’s big match. Aino said the story getting a happy ending was good enough so it would be fine if nobody watches the match. In fact she admits doesn’t want to go through with it. Misao explained she wants to see Aino be the main character because she can do it even without the need for preparation. The match Misao came up was the entire reason this show was put together in the first place!

To set the scene everyone went back to the final moments of the story. Urahime was defeated but instead of asking to join the Academy she instead swore she wouldn’t give up. She would instead reveal her true self! She collapses, the room goes dark and suddenly Urahime transforms into Danshoku Dieno! The Student Council tried to attack him but he fought them all off, leaving just Yuki Koino as the last one in his way. The Student Council called on her to fight but she couldn’t find the courage until Dieno asked her what her true feelings are? Aino said she doesn’t get excited to fight when she gets provoked. When she fights she wants to confront her opponent with her true desire to win so everyone from the wrestlers to the fans will be fired up. After listening to her answer, Dieno told Aino that in this moment he wants to crush her more than he wants to crush Hiroshi Tanahashi! Aino now wanted to use all her strength to beat Dieno and agreed to do the match in order to make everyone who came to the show happy.

The match went ahead with a complete presentation, entrances and ring introductions included. Dieno shrugged off a Shoulder Block and gave Aino a Brainbuster right away. Aino tried fighting back with Elbow Strikes but she would just get slammed down and put in submission holds in response. She would finally get going by countering a Vertical Drop Brainbuster into a Back Body Drop. From there she would get more offence in and get a nearfall with the Venus DDT. Dieno took back control and gave Aino the Danshoku Driver but she kicked out of it! Dieno then gave Aino several Shoulder Blocks, one for every time she stood back up. He then did a Superplex and left Aino laying so the ref could count her out. Aino struggled to get up so Dieno shouted her words of encouragement. When she made it to her feet to break the 10 count, Dieno hugged her and then hit another Shoulder Block. That one kept Aino down and Dieno pinned her for the win.

After the match Dieno said if this is Aino’s way of life they everyone should watch it closely. He heard about her story to become a wrestler. She trained hard but suffered a neck injury before her debut so she gave up. But she missed being in the ring so she came back. She also came back to be with an older sister that she trusts but the sister ended up taking a different path. In this life working hard doesn’t necessarily mean you will get rewarded for it. But at least here in Tokyo Joshi Pro people will come to see you do that hard work. There’s no other wrestling company in the world that puts on a show like this so Dieno told Aino she should be proud of that. He promised he will go on to crush Tanahashi as if Aino is a part of Dieno. The two then gave each other a fist bump.

Aino asked Misao if she saw what she wanted to see? Misao thanked her for showing something that went beyond her imagination, going so far it was like going into space. Misao told the audience that Aino Vs Dieno was the match she originally wanted to do for the first performance but Aino wanted to wrestle her instead. She was happy with how that turned out but still really wanted to put the other match together which is why the second performance was set up on one month’s notice. Misao thanked everyone involved for successfully getting today’s show over the finish line. The show ended with the catchphrase “I get HYPE! We get HYPE!”…

… Except we got a little stinger right at the very end. When the credits finished rolling the mystery man in black appeared on the screen with a message to give everyone. “It seems you all know too much about the secrets of space and pro wrestling.” He then rang the ring bell to erase everyone’s memories.

1. Special Single Match: Hyper Misao Vs Yuki Aino ended in a Time Limit Draw (15:00).

For the third year in a row Hyper Misao gets to produce her own show and it hasn’t gotten any easier. Three days before the event took place the entire cast waited at the dojo for rehearsals but Misao was nowhere to be seen. Yuki Aino decided to leave the others and go look for her. Meanwhile Misao was isolated in an office room, having purposely taped herself onto a chair so she could complete the script for the show. She found the task so difficult that she started praying to the wrestling gods to give her the strength to continue. After drinking one energy drink too many, she blanked out for a second. After coming to, Misao had a brainflash and suddenly realized the secret of pro wrestling as well as the universe!

Freshly invigorated, Misao went back to work typing as much as she could. Unbeknownst to her a mystery figure entered the room, approached her from behind and knocked her out with a bell hammer! As this was happening Aino was walking down the street and saw the figure carrying a still conscious Misao into a nearby parking lot. Aino rushed towards them, grabbed Misao and pulled her away. But the two clashed heads, knocking both of them down. The mystery person picked the now unconscious Misao up onto their shoulder and walked off.

Aino woke up to Mahiro Kiryu, Suzume and Shoko Nakajima all standing over her checking if she was alright. Something was wrong because she started thinking she was Misao and asked the others what had happened to Aino? Once she saw her reflection in a mirror, she started to realize what was going on. By bumping heads Misao and Aino had switched bodies! Back in the dojo everyone was told what had happened. Misao was now in Aino’s body and Aino was now in Misao’s body, which had just been kidnapped. They also have this show to worry about so they agreed in the meantime to do all that they can to make “HYPE! 3” a success.

Our story begins during the year 20XX in a version of Japan where pro wrestling is a nationally certified profession. Only those who pass a national exam are allowed to take on the job which for 15 consecutive years has been voted by children as the No. 1 career they want to have in the future. A private school in located in Shinjuku called the Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling Academy brings in students from all over Japan because it has an enrollment rate of 90% among its graduates. Today is the first day of class for the academy’s newest transfer student, Yuki Koino (Yuki Aino). Unfortunately Yuki was running late for class so she needed to get there quick. As she was running, she bumped into somebody wearing another school uniform (Toga) and knocked her down. When the student wouldn’t accept Yuki’s apology, Yuki called her a jerk and continued on her way to class. However something about that moment made Yuki feel excited in a way she never felt before.

Yuki made it to the academy in time and was introduced to the rest of the classroom by the homeroom teacher Rika-sensai (Rika Tatsumi). A different student then hurriedly entered the room. It was Rune Okure (Uta Takami), another transfer student. She introduced herself by saying her strength is she’s the most competitive person in the universe. Her weakness is also that she’s the most competitive person in the universe. Today’s lesson was the history of why pro wrestling became the most important profession in the country. It is because pro wrestlers protect the Earth from aliens! Once there was an evil alien who invaded the planet threatening to conquer it when a wrestler challenged it to a wrestling match. The wrestler won and when the bell rang, the entire area was enveloped in light, weakening the alien and saving the entire planet.

The sound of the ring bell also has the power to wipe out memories. A side demonstration was put together by a normal civilian (HIMAWARI) who used the ring bell to repel a pickup artist (Tetsuya Koda). She had to keep ringing it though because once the artist lost his memory, he would forget what had happened and begin flirting with her again. Back in the classroom Rune asked Rika-sensai if a wrestler ever lost to an alien? Rika told her so far it has never happened. Pro wrestlers are the strongest. Rune found that last sentence to be interesting and repeated it to herself…

Later in the day, Yuki was visited by three members of the school’s Discipline Committee (Suzume, Raku & Haru Kazashiro) who are there to enforce the rules of good behavior, purity and integrity. They noticed her’s blonde hair goes against their rules so they started calling her a delinquint who is impure and violating compliance. Their solution was to dye her hair black straight away! They all grabbed Yuki and brought out a bottle of hair dye when all of a sudden the student who Yuki bumped into earlier came out to save her! The student is Toga Amasawa and it turns out she is so popular in the school that other students formed a fan club, which goes against the Discipline Committee’s rules. Yuki & Toga freed themselves from the Committee’s clutches and were about to make their escape when another group of students suddenly approached them.

To the tune of “Timing” by Black Biscuits, three students made their entrance to the ring. They were all members of the Student Council: President Shoko Domanakajima (Shoko Nakajima), Secretary Shinogono Suzuki (Shino Suzuki) and Vice President Mahrio Kiryunen (Mahiro Kiryu). The Council were here to crack down on the Committee’s strict and tyrannical ways. After chasing the Committee away, the Council then tried to recruit Yuki and Toga to join their side because they are currently understaffed. Toga wasn’t interested and walked off by herself, leaving Yuki behind. She didn’t want to join but all of a sudden Rune ran in saying she will do it alongside her! Looks like Yuki has no choice but to go along with it.

With her first day of school finished, Yuki walked home in the rain where she once again saw Toga down the street. Toga had found a kitten that was getting soaked in the rain so he was doing what he could to help it. Yuki joined in and had a talk where Toga explained his poor family background to her. Feeling sympathetic, Yuki asked Toga to meet her at this same spot tomorrow so she can help him take care of the kitten too.

The next day at the Student Council meeting, Rune suddenly ran into the room panicking. She told everyone something weird has happened to the Discipline Committee. The Committee then arrived singing and dancing to “Cosmic Treat” by Perfume then introduced themselves as Haruchi (Haru Kazashiro), Ra-chan (Raku) and Suzumebachi (Suzume). Together the three of them make up Panic! Shoko realized that they had been taken over by aliens so they must fight to bring them back to their senses! A wrestling match suddenly broke out and despite a moment when Rune got in the way, the Council were victorious in the end. The bell rang and the Discipline Committee returned to normal, remembering why they wanted to be pro wrestlers in the first place (to take naps during matches, do Kamen Rider poses and become cooler than everyone else). They also all remembered they got Fs in their mock exams which is why they thought becoming plain and strictly following the rules would solve their problems. Yuki then taught them the lesson that pro wrestlers are strong and cool because they are true towards what they like.

Everyone then started to wonder how and why the Committee were taken over by aliens. They brought up having a black notebook that contains information on all of the transfer students when all of a sudden a loud sound made them all fall to the ground, clutching their heads in pain. When they recovered they all noticed the notebook had gone missing! Rune told everyone they need to get help from a teacher and ran off to go look for Rika-sensai. She found her in the science lab where she was trying to convince Toga to drink a special liquid that would turn her into the perfect pro wrestler! Toga refused and had to physically stop Rika from forcing her to drink it when Rune made her late entrance…

Rune returned to the others with an alarming update. Both Rika & Toga had also been taken over by aliens! The two then showed up singing and dancing to “UFO” by Pink Lady. Yuki tried to check if Toga was ok but he pushed her away, making the Student Council feel the need to start another wrestling match to save them. Again Rune stepped in trying to help but got in the Council’s way. However the Council recovered and were able to win, ringing the bell to restore Rika & Toga’s memories. Rika realized that her love for students had gotten out of control and she was no longer fit to be a teacher. Toga meanwhile admitted to Yuki that she wants actually wants to wear the same uniform as everyone else because she likes cute, girly things too. She promised not to hide her girlish side from Yuki for now on.

The situation had now become an emergency so Rika went to look for her transfer student documents to figure out what was going on. However she too was then struck by the noise attack and the documents went missing in the process. Rika-sensei had no choice but to close the school for everyone’s safety. Yuki and Shoko decided to walk home together when Suzuki chased after them, telling them that Mahiro had gotten herself into danger! She left her school bag behind and when she went back to the classroom to get it, she found Rune sitting alone trying to cover up the transfer student documents! Mahiro grabbed them wondering what it was and noticed the photograph on Rune’s document was that of a completely different person (Haruna Neko)! Before Mahiro could do anything about it, Rune knocked her out by shooting beams from her hands at her. The rest of the Student Council arrived and at this point realised that Rune was an alien all this time! Rune confessed it is true. She is actually Urahime of the Ura Earthlings and comes from the most competitive planet in the universe. She has come here to conquer Earth! During the intermission Tatsumi asked everyone in the dressing room where Misao (in Aino’s body) went. Nakajima went looking for her and found her sitting down the stairway. She asked if she was feeling nervous and told her it will be all over soon. Misao/Aino told her she’ll do her best.

Back to the story. Urahime had now revealed her true self by singing and dancing to the song “Invader Invader” by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. She then used her beam to revive Mahiro and take control of her. Suzuki ran towards them trying to save her friend but Urahime hit her with the same beam, taking control of her too. Shoko & Yuki now had to fight the three of them in a wrestling match with Shoko trying to get her friends to snap back to normal. However the power of friendship was not powerful enough to overwhelm Urahime’s beams so Shoko needed Yuki’s help to beat them. Shoko pinned Urahime and Yuki rang the bell to bring everyone back to normal.

Urahime showed regret for her actions and promised to reform if she could be allowed to join the Academy so she can study pro wrestling. Shoko gave her her endorsement because she enjoyed fighting her so much and wants to do it more. Suzuki called this a historic moment that needs to be written down. Mahiro said this school is so great that she’s definitely going to repeat the year. And so our heroes had saved Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling Academy from an alien invasion! The End.

No wait, that’s not it just yet. The story had finished and Misao/Aino gathered all the cast members to the ring when suddenly Hyper Misao walked out on the stage. Everyone thought it was Yuki Aino in Misao’s body but she dropped the act and admitted there was no body swap to begin with. Aino dropped her act too and showed everyone a video to explain what was going on. Back when Misao drank her energy drinks to finish writing the script she actually gave up, broke free from her chair and left her office. Aino caught her trying to leave the building and tried to stop her. Misao said the script was completed but she isn’t confident it will be good so she wants to disappear for a while. She’s caused everyone enough trouble already and suggested Koda can book four matches on the fly as a replacement show. Misao then ran off, leaving Aino by herself. Aino could hear other people approaching the building so she came up with a plan on the spot to pretend that somebody abducted Misao and Misao swapped bodies with Aino in the process.

Back in the ring everyone was coming to terms with the truth. Suzuki thought it made sense because body swaps don’t work that way. Nakajima however pointed out it does happen that way in pro wrestling! Raku then realized that all this time it was Aino who handled all of the preparations and rehearsals while Misao was missing. Misao apologized and talked about how last year she got injured right before “HYPE! 2”. When she came back and won the Princess Tag Team Titles with Nakajima, she had decided on the plot for this year’s show. However this year she got injured before the show again and became worried she lost everyone’s trust. She decided to run away but secretly came back today to watch the dress rehearsal and full performance. She saw all these amazingly talented people make her script turn out a hundred million times better than she expected so she had no choice but to walk out and apologize to everyone.

Aino could understand Misao’s regrets because she has many regrets too. When she was a child her sister Nodoka Tenma and their father would perform in community musicals together. She loved watching them but whenever she was asked if she would like to join them, she never had the confidence to do it. She always regretted that so when she was offered the main role of today’s show this time she wouldn’t refuse. She thanked Misao for coming up with today’s script and giving her this opportunity. When Tenma graduated from Tokyo Joshi Pro three years ago, it left Aino with a big gap in her wrestling life and she ended up feeling like she was stuck in a maze. Then when Sayuri Namba’s graduation took place recently, she realized she was never alone. She just avoided taking the time to look at everything surrounding her. The warm and uplifting TJPW ring helps broaden her world and she loves fighting in front of the fans. She is passionate now but wants to get even more passionate so she challenged Misao to a match right there, right now!

After a replay of the intro (both times included a Namba cameo) allowed the two wrestlers to get into their gear, the main event singles match between Hyper Misao and Yuki Aino began. Misao took the microphone and told everyone this is her first singles match since coming back from injury. It is a match she cannot afford to lose and she wants to be passionate from the bottom of her heart. But when she reached out to shake Aino’s hand she got a cheap shot in by kicking her in the gut. But Aino got Misao into the corner and started a Train Attack featuring the cast of the show all still acting in character. The match then became more normal and even serious afterwards. As it entered its final few minutes, Misao applied the Crossface Chicken Wing and almost smothered Aino with it but she was able to reach a rope break. Misao then climbed the top rope but Aino grabbed her and did a Super Side Suplex. They then blocked each other’s signature moves until Aino was able to pull off the Venus DDT. However Aino was too slow to make the pin and only got a two count out of it. Misao was also able to kick out of a Side Suplex and do a Flying Cross Body for a nearfall of her own when the bell rang to signal a time limit draw.

Misao told Aino after the match that is was super exciting. She doesn’t know if it’s because she has so many feelings built up inside her but this was the first time she did a singles match in such a bad mental state. Her heart has never burned hotter than it had from fighting Aino today. She trusts everybody in TJPW which is why she wants everyone to trust her. She wanted Aino to have the main role today because she always tries to help others stay calm and collected, even if it means she never gives priority to her own passions. So she was so happy when Aino approached her asking for a singles match against each other to happen on this show. Aino said Misao always puts herself down when she should never be saying things like that. Everyone here thinks Misao’s ideas are funny, they all love her for it and it makes them sad whenever she says things like that. Nakajima then spoke on the mic, telling Misao that while working hard on your own can be a good thing, is can also be a bad thing. Everyone has fun working on “HYPE!” so she shouldn’t be worrying too much. She then passed the microphone to Kiryu who admitted she had nothing to say after watching the match. Tatsumi scolder her but what she meant was she has nothing else to say that others haven’t already said. Misao took the mic back and got to close out the show. She said it didn’t felt right to do the the first two times but she’s sure it will get better as they go along. “I get HYPE! We get HYPE!”

1. Aja Kong defeated Raku with the Back Drop (7:44).

Last May Hyper Misao produced her first show called “HYPE!” and it got such a good reception she put together a second one almost a year later. And just like last year Misao was not going to be the hero of today’s story. Instead the show began inside a packed train entering Suidobashi Station. Raku was among the passengers squeezing through the crowd when she suddenly tripped to the ground. When she got back up, a hooded stranger handed her a bag thinking it belonged to her. The stranger disappeared before Raku could correct her and hand the bag back.

Suddenly a voice coming from inside the bag called out to Raku. Inside was a stuffed rabbit toy who was really a Battle Fairy named Shokopple who is searching for a masked idol named Re:. Shokopple believed Raku was Re: using an alter ego to hide in public. Raku didn’t understand so Shokopple explained that Re: is a magical idol who is powered by Entertainment Energy. She is meant to be at a sold out solo concert at the Tokyo Dome today. However 3 days ago Re: suddenly tweeted that she was quitting with immediate effect. The shocking news drove the city into chaos which caused Shokopple to go in search of Re:, which brought her to Raku. Sirens then went off and a commanding voice gave orders for Re: to go solve an incident happening in Shibuya. Shokopple gave Raku no choice but to follow the order.

A gang of Ganguro Gals have been going around Shibuya kidnapping innocent people like Sayuri Namba and transforming them into even more Ganguro Gals! The three Gals named Miupipi, Mokachamu and the newly transformed Bassa danced to “Night Of Fire” and revealed their plan to turn all of humanity into Ganguro Gals! Raku arrived to stop them but was mistaken for someone who was next to join the group. The Gals all surrounded her and Raku was in trouble. Shokopple told Raku there is a mask in her bag that will transform her into a magical hero. Raku grabbed the mask, put it on and transformed into Re:! During the transformation Shokopple also powered up into human form. Together they defeated the Gals in a fight. Afterwards Re: transformed back to Raku and the Gals regained their normal personalities. All were horrified that they had turned Ganguro but Miu seemed to recognise Raku. Before they could talk, the siren went off again and Shokopple dragged Raku off to the next mission.

Deep in the heart of Tokyo there is a host club called $hoot $hin. Shokopple could sense there was something evil about the place but all they could find were the three handsome hosts Kiryuin, Tosuke and Haruki serving female customers in a charming manner. They performed the song “Shuchishin” which made Shokopple notice Entertainment Energy filling the room. Raku was then handed a bill for 32.1 million yen! That was when they realized the host club was just a front for a gambling gang! Raku transformed into Re: for the next fight scene. The hosts tried to use Love Story powers but Re: resisted them and left them in a beaten pile. The hosts were snapped out of their senses and Kiryuin seemed to recognise Raku. But the siren went off again and Raku was gone just as quickly.

Along the way there was a breaking news story on TV. Ace reporter Azusa Takigawa was near the Tokyo Dome where the planned Re: concert was being hijacked by the heavy metal band Kokuchumu! The band members Kuroharu, Yukinojo & Bird took over the show to perform “Boukyoku no Sora”. Raku arrived when they had finished but when she put on the mask, she didn’t transform into Re:. While they tried to figure out what was wrong, Kokuchumu attacked them. The lead singer Kuroharu then grabbed the mask and revealed to Shokopple that she was Re: all along, not Raku! Re: only wanted to be an artist and she remembered how much fun music is when she met the other members of the band. They then attacked Shokopple but Raku stopped them. She tried to reason with Re: but she wouldn’t change her mind. They would have to fight.

All three of Kokuchumu then attacked Raku. When things looked their worst and Raku looked to be done for, all of the people she saved earlier in the show appeared on stage dancing to the ring. They all grouped around Raku reminding her that she is an idol. Memories of Raku’s entire wrestling career flashed through her mind as the voices all called out for her to wake up. Raku, now in her wrestling costume, fought off Kokuchumu until it came down to herself against Re:. She told her there was no reason to fight and told the story of how she became an idol. She then sang her song “Marshmellow Cacao Station” ending it by introducing herself as Raku from The Up Up Girls!

Raku told Re: she was forgetting the most important thing as an idol. It is to entertain the fans in front of you. Re: saw the error of her ways and settle her problems with Shokopple. It was now time for Raku to return home but nobody knew how until Shokopple figure it out. Raku is in the middle of her own dream and the only way to wake up is to go through a gruelling ordeal. Suddenly Aja Kong’s music played!

That’s right, Raku’s end to her story was to have a match against Aja Kong! Raku shook her hand and confirmed she wanted to do the match. She threw Chops after Chops but Kong wouldn’t budge. Raku then sang her a lullaby which did send Kong briefly to sleep but only for a two count. Kong then went on the attack, knocking her down and doing her own version of the Oyasumi Express! Raku escaped and used the Smile Train for another near fall. She then armed herself with a pillow to go against Kong’s Steel Can. Raku was able to disarm Kong and hit her over the head. She could have done it more but chose to fight on without any weapons. Kong easily overpowered her though and won by giving her the Back Drop.

Kong was apologetic after the match but she had to go hard against Raku to make it matter. She praised her for her performance throughout the show and didn’t expect her to sing a song at the end so that was a nice bonus for Kong. She was happy to wrestle Raku one on one for the first time on a show like this. Next time she wants them to team up. She suggested they can go look for the producer and crush her together!

The other cast members all gave their support for Raku too. Rika Tatsumi thanked her for all the hard work and said the match grabbed at her heart. Shoko Nakajima talked about how little time everyone had to prepare for the changes in the show after Misao got injured. But Raku was always the first to learn her lines and put in the most effort when she was given the lead role of the story. Raku told the audience that when Misao gave her the role, she also told her she was going to have a match. Raku immediately thought of Kong but was too nervous to do it. Misao convinced her to take it because it was a big opportunity for her.

Misao then explained that she got injured before the script was even finished. She even revealed HIMAWARI came in on a day’s notice to play the puppeteer for Shokopple in its rabbit form. Misao then told the fans she will need to get surgery on her injured ankle. She will be out for longer than she expected but she will come back! She also wants to produce more “HYPE!” shows so it can be a place where everyone can see that everybody in Tokyo Joshi Pro has talent. She ended the show by telling everyone “I get Hype! We get Hype!!”

3. Miracle Heart Catch Shuffle Tag Tournament Final: Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Yuki Aino & Mahiro Kiryu when Tatsumi submitted Kiryu with the White Dragon Sleeper (11:46).

Today’s show came entirely from the mind of Hyper Misao. She was the producer so anything she said, goes. Proof of that was seen in the first match. It was a Battle Royal where the winner is rewarded with the right to become Hyper Misao II. Nobody booked for the match wanted to be a part of it so Misao gathered them all into a room before the show and brainwashed them into worshipping her. The result was everybody entering the Battle Royal wearing a different Hyper Misao costume from over the years and imitating her gimmick. Miu Watanabe and Yuki Kamifuku fought over the microphone, Raku wore Misao’s very first costume, HIMAWARI showed up as Akemi Daredasore and Moka Miyamoto did all of Misao’s superhero poses. Suzume ended up as the last Misao standing after all six of them sprayed each other in the face. Her full reward was an invitation to join the Hypami Lecture and it will only cost her 990,000 yen (discounted because Suzume already has a superhero costume). Suzume realised this whole thing was a scam and she snapped out of her brainwashing. She stopped Misao from brainwashing her again, took off her mask and told everyone she wants to do her best by being herself.

A first time ever matchup between Shoko Nakajima and Yoshihiko was next. It was a chance for Nakajima to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title, which she has only held once previously. Yoshihiko ignored a customary handshake before the match began. The two grappled with Yoshihiko getting the upper hand and sending his opponent out of the ring. It followed up with a big Topé Suicida but Nakajima used her big kaiju strength to lift Yoshihiko up with a Gorilla Press onto the ring apron. Back in the ring Nakajima targeted Yoshihiko’s legs with submission holds. Yoshihiko reached the ropes and the two started throwing blows back and forth. It led to a scramble of pins after a Hurricanrana ending with Yoshihiko keeping Nakajima’s shoulders pinned to the mat long enough for the three count.

The third and final match revealed that even though Hyper Misao produced this show, the hero of today’s story was actually Mahiro Kiryu. Her match teaming with Yuki Arai against Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo was suddenly revealed to be the final of the Miracle Heart Catch tournament, a previously unannounced competition shuffling random teams together. Endo had Kiryu trapped in the Camel Cluch late in the match when all of a sudden time froze and a masked woman who looks like Hyper Misao entered the ring. Only Kiryu was still conscious and the women told her she must win this match otherwise the world will collapse! She freed Kiryu from Endo’s frozen grip and the two travelled to another dimension where Kiryu will have another match and win it to save the world.

They found a dimension where Sanshiro Takagi and Tetsuya Koda were looking over resumes for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s new project, a unit of pro wrestling idols collaborating with The Up Up Girls. In this dimension Koda rejects the application from Hikari Noa because she is just a high school student from Hokkaido. Instead Mahiro was chosen as the mahjong loving blue member of The Up Up Girls, Mamamama Mahiro! In the ring she performed two songs with Watanabe & Raku then wrestled her match. Things suddenly went wrong and Mahiro was almost pinned by Tatsumi when time again froze and the masked woman sent her to another dimension to start their plan all over.

This time they entered a dimension at the point in time where Mahiro had not debut yet. Takagi came up with an idea to give TJPW a Takarazuka Revue gimmick and Mahiro was the perfect candidate. She was going to become the Romeo to Aino’s Juliet. However when it was time for the Miracle Heart Catch Final, she discovered that Tatsumi & Endo also had completely different gimmicks. They were now like the violent heels from 1980s joshi attacking their opponents with canes and chains! Mahiro tried her best to defend Aino but suffered the consequences. She was about to lose again when time froze once more. It was time to visit yet another dimension.

The masked woman decided to keep things simple this time and went to a dimension where she simply spiked Tatsumi & Endo’s drinks before the final. It caused the two of them to enter the match with stomach aches while Kiryu & Aino were in perfect condition. Then a twist nobody could see coming suddenly happened. The match was interrupted by the Chiisiki-gun, this dimension’s Biishiki-gun equivalent! Chiisakisama and her devoted maid (who looked a lot like Haruna Neko & Antonio Honda respectively) had crashed the tournament and were now Kiryu’s new opponents! Kiryu was once again going to lose the match when time froze once again. However they were about to reach the end of the road.

A voice from the Space-Time Police interrupted the proceedings and revealed to Kiryu that the masked woman’s real identity is Hyper Misao! They weren’t in fact travelling through different dimensions but were instead travelling back through their own timeline over and over in an effort to rewrite history. Misao defended her plan, asking Mahiro if she ever wanted to go back to the past and correct her mistakes? It is something Misao has been asking herself for the last eight years. As she was saying this she suddenly began to realize that she can’t change the world after all. Kiryu told Misao she used to be a recluse just like her. Kiryu only had her mother’s support to rely on and that helped her gradually become a member of society. However one day her mother’s health began to deteriorate and they soon learned she did not have long left to live. Kiryu could not figure out what to do and had no answer other than wishing it was just a dream. She felt emotionless about her own life until she came across a video of DDT doing their street pro wrestling matches. Just like Misao, she thought it looked so much fun and it made her decide to become a pro wrestler. Kiryu has many regrets but becoming a pro wrestler is not one of them. She cannot change her past but she can change her present and future. Misao understood and for one final time they travelled back to the past to right before today’s main event began.

The match began from the beginning and this time Kiryu was full of determination. She went toe to toe against her opponents, fighting her way out of Endo’s Camel Clutch and grabbing hold onto Tatsumi’s legs to cut off her mobility. She gave Tatsumi the Spinebuster but Endo broke the pin at two. Tatsumi caught her in a Sleeper Hold and transitioned it into the White Dragon Sleeper. Kiryu held on for as long as she could but had no choice but to give up in the end. Afterwards Tatsumi admitted she didn’t expect to see Kiryu be so good in the match today. Kiryu just taught her that whenever she falls down she should look forward and keep going. The two hugged and brought Misao into the ring to close out the show.

Misao told Kiryu she did a good job today and offered her the microphone to speak. Kiryu thanked the audience for coming to see the show and is surprised to see so many people here. Misao said this whole reckless match was her idea. As you can see from the show poster, she brought all these wrestlers together to fight inside her mind. She thinks everybody in TJPW are so incredibly talented that they can all handle her crazy ideas. She didn’t plan on a show closing catchphrase so she thought of one on the spot. In English she told everyone “I get hype! We get hype!”
