TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE NIGHT BEFORE GRAND PRINCESS ’25”, 01/03/2025
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
215 Fans

1. Pom Harajuku defeated Uta Takami with the Pom de Justice (6:19).
2. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Kira Summer & Chika Nanase when Kamifuku submitted Nanase with the Fujisawa Koroshi (9:06).

4. Suzume, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Moka Miyamoto, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Mifu Ashida when Suzume pinned Ashida with the Ring A Bell (9:02).
5. Mizuki & Arisu Endo defeated Haru Kazashiro & Toga when Endo pinned Kazashiro with the Ju no Okite (10:15).
6. Hyper Misao 10th Anniversary Match “hypedesz PROJECT-AUDITION” Final Audition ~ 1 Vs 5 Handicap Match: Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino, Raku, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko defeated Hyper Misao when all five pinned Misao (5:44).
7. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Shoko Nakajima & Kaya Toribami when Itoh submitted Toribami with the Itoh Deluxe (14:50).

There’s still a handful of Tokyo Joshi Pro events coming up before “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” but this is pretty much the go home show. It was Shoko Nakajima’s last chance at facing 121000000 before their Princess Tag Team Titles. She teamed up with Kaya Toribami but was helpless to save her partner from tapping out to Maki Itoh. 121000000 taunted Nakajima with their title belts after the match but also admitted being frustrated by fighting her today. Miyu Yamashita even admitted that Nakajima made her angry today so she’s going to let it all out at the title match. It’s not enough for 121000000 to defend the titles. They also want to completely defeat Kyoraku Kyomei once and for all!

Nakajima’s usual tag partner Hyper Misao had other matters to deal with today. Namely her match that was celebrating the 10th anniversary of her debut. It was advertised as a 6-Woman Tag Match but when the other five wrestlers made their entrances, Misao came out and revealed they were actually taking part in the HyPro Final Audition of the Hypedesz Project. It would play out as a 5 Way Match with two count pinfalls. Whoever scores a fall would then be given a Misao related task and if they passed it, they would win the audition and become her best friend. Haruna Neko scored a fall and was told to perfectly copy Misao’s entrance. She tried to do it but Misao told her it looks completely different. Raku got the same task but also failed. When Mahiro Kiryu scored a fall she was told to listen to Misao’s entrance song and continue singing it without making any mistakes. She failed and Misao started to complain that nobody was motivated to win. By this point Rika Tatsumi got fed up, threw Misao into the ring and dared her to fight everyone else in a 5 Vs 1 Handicap Match. Surprisingly Misao accepted.

The match rules changed and Misao even put up a good fight against the number disadvantage. She even manipulated Yuki Aino into giving her some unintentional piggy back assistance so she could attack everyone with her Hero Spray. However the numbers took their toll and all five opponents piled on top of Misao to pin her after she did the I Am A Hero onto Tatsumi & Aino. Misao said she was disappointed she couldn’t even pass her own audition but she also packed in a bunch of unreasonable requests when putting this match together so in a way she feels satisfied. In the end she decided everyone passed! The lights then went out and a message appeared on the screen. “HYPE! 3” will take place at Kitazawa Town Hall on 27th June! As usual she hasn’t figured out what the show is actually going to be yet. But this time she is considering holding a public dress rehearsal for the show.

The Fujisawa Koroshi used by Yuki Kamifuku to win her match today is the temporary name for her Foot-Clutch Manjigatame submission hold.

Pom Harajuku wanted to spend her match celebrating Hinamatsuri (Girl’s Day) because it is happening in two days time. Uta Takami refused because she wanted to take their match seriously. Harajuku was still able to find ways to make Takami and also Daisuke Kiso play along with her.

There are some new homecoming shows being added to this year’s schedule. Yuki Kamifuku’s homecoming in Fujisawa will be on 11th May. Shino Suzuki’s homecoming in Shimizu will be o 24th May. Haruna Neko’s homecoming in Kofu will be on 21st June.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL 5 ~BOX OFFICE FOR FEMALE FANS ONLY~” Results

March 1, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL 5 ~BOX OFFICE FOR FEMALE FANS ONLY~”, 01/03/2025
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
145 Fans

1. Yuki Aino defeated Kira Summer with the Venus DDT (6:29).
2. Yoshiko Hasegawa, Kaya Toribami & HIMAWARI defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Haruna Neko & Chika Nanase when Hasegawa submitted Nanase with the Muffler Hold (11:48).
3. Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Miyamoto submitted Takami with the Rashomon (10:08).
4. Rika Tatsumi, Raku & Ivy Steele defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Mifu Ashida when Tatsumi pinned Ashida with the Twist Of Fate (10:05).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Pom Harajuku & Shino Suzuki when Nakajima pinned Suzuki with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:26).
6. Miyu Yamashita defeated Haru Kazashiro with the Skull Kick (11:04).
7. Mizuki & Suzume defeated Maki Itoh & Toga when Mizuki pinned Toga with the Cutie Special (13:38).

The last time Tokyo Joshi Pro held one of their female audience only “GO GIRL” events was back in October 2023. In the main event the Princess Of Princess Champion and International Princess Champion teamed up against one half of the Princess Tag Team Champions. The end result was Suzume taking out Maki Itoh with the Mikazuki Meteor Shower leaving Mizuki to pin Toga with the Cutie Special. Mizuki felt a little flustered because the fans chanted her name more than she expected. She hopes the show will inspire this audience to come see TJPW more often. Suzume talked about being a TJPW fan who then became a wrestler so she hopes the fans today will fall in love with TJPW and take their first steps into something new. Mizuki then joked about how her first time meeting Suzume was at the merchandise booth.

The other Princess Tag Champion had her hands full in first time singles bout. Miyu Yamashita was challenged to a match by Haru Kazashiro in the latest display of Kazashiro’s progression up the card. Yamashita encouraged her to give her best and although Yamashita won, she shook Kazashiro’s hand afterwards. She praised her for having a strong willpower and becoming more like the wrestler she wants to be than she might realise. Kazashiro understands there is an overwhelming difference between them and that makes her want to aim even higher. However she is a little anxious over the high expectations everyone in TJPW has for her. Even though she is happy she doesn’t think she has lived up to those expectations.

Hyper Misao thought she was going to have the audience on her side for Match #5 because she made a bunch of handmade signs for everyone. However Pom Harajuku and Shino Suzuki came up with the same idea and placed their own signs for everyone. Misao then tried to start a cheering contest but Harajuku was louder than everyone else so Misao attacked her to start the match. Misao & Shoko Nakajima then wrapped Harajuku & Suzuki together with tape outside the ring to try and get them counted out. When they got back to the ring together in time, Kyoraku Kyomei praised them for doing a great job and unwrapped them. The sportsmanship ended when later when Misao sprayed Suzuki in the face and Nakajima pinned her with the Northern Lights Suplex.

Everybody in Match #4 fought over Raku’s pillow.

KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles Vacated, Hirata Might Be Booker Of The Year, Full Cards For Grand Princess & Judgement 2025

February 25, 2025

Today DDT announced the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles have been vacated by DAMNATION T.A. The status of the championship was up in the air since Sunday after KANON was kicked out of the unit. He was one third of the champions along with Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul but the situation between them was “deemed difficult” according to DDT for future title defences to be scheduled. A match to determine the 57th champions will be announced as soon as it is decided on. I swear DAMNATION T.A have the weirdest luck with tag team championships. They either lose them immediately or hold onto them long enough for something within them to fall apart.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE NIGHT BEFORE GRAND PRINCESS ’25”, 01/03/2025
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall

1. Pom Harajuku Vs Uta Takami
2. Miu Watanabe Vs Ivy Steele

6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Shoko Nakajima & Kaya Toribami
7. Hyper Misao 10th Anniversary Match: Hyper Misao, Rika Tatsumi & Yuki Aino Vs Raku, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko

While Hyper Misao is celebrating her 10th Anniversary, Shoko Nakajima gets one more prelim match against 121000000 before their Princess Tag Team Titles match takes place. She’ll be teaming with Kaya Toribami but I don’t know how much of a difference the bird is going to make to be honest.

DDT “YACCHAINA FIGHT 2025”, 08/03/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya

3. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y Vs Minoru Suzuki & Akito

There will be only one prelim match between Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki before the DDT Universal Title bout. Yokohama will host it just under two weeks before the 28th Anniversary show.

Tokyo Toyosu PIT

1. Maki Itoh Vs Uta Takami
2. Miu Watanabe, Raku & Haru Kazashiro Vs Pom Harajuku, Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki

I think this will be the first time Maki Itoh is wrestling at a Garafes mat wrestling event.

*Special Referee: Katsumi Tamagawa.

What a load of surprises Kazuki Hirata has in store for everyone. He’s bringing in Hiromu Takahashi for the main event, Yoshihiko and Pokotan will clash against each other, there will be a Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor reunion, Punch Tominaga is getting thrown in with the weird people and he’ll even have a prize for the winner of the Battle Royal that he promises will cheer them up.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’25”, 16/03/2025
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

This will be the first of three trips to Ota Ward Gymnasium for Tokyo Joshi Pro this year. Meiko Satomura will face Yuki Arai in what may become Satomura’s final appearance in the promotion before her retirement. Raku has challenged Pom Harajuku for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title and is doing so out of love. Aja Kong is going to cause some destruction again. Moka Miyamoto is going to bounce off of Max The Impaler like a tennis ball being thrown into a wall. Kakeru Sekiguchi returns to TJPW to team with Mahiro Kiryu again and this time she’ll be introduced to Kiryu’s cat Haruna Neko.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2025 ~28TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 20/03/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Toru Owashi Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Makoto Oishi, Akito & Soma Takao Vs Yukio Naya, Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura
3. Special Tag Match: MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs JJ Furno & Tomomitsu Matsunaga

8. DDT Extreme Title: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine
*Special Referee: Amon Tsurumi.
9. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki
10. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

Meanwhile Chris Brookes decided to defend his KO-D Openweight Title against his longtime CDK teammate Masahiro Takanashi. But this is not being done out of love or friendship. The two want to give DDT fans a fight to remember to close out one of the most important shows of the year for the company.

Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine are threatening to give everyone the worst match ever for their DDT Extreme Title bout. Hisaya Imabayashi will be turning back into Amon Tsurumi for one night only to officiate the match.

He doesn’t understand why he’s been expelled from DAMNATION T.A but KANON wants to get revenge on Daisuke Sasaki. DDT quickly put together the singles match between them for this show.

It’s planned to be a five hour show but the card still has to be crammed together a little bit. That means Kazusada Higuchi and Shunma Katsumata will make their respective returns from injury in the same match. It’s also a good excuse to have a Harimao Vs NωA Jr. trios match.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Hideki Okatani Return Match: Hideki Okatani Vs X
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

Whoever comes out of Korakuen as the KO-D Champion in March will return there in April to defend it against the D GENERATIONS CUP winner Yuya Koroku.

KANON was kicked out of DAMNATION T.A to be replaced by the return of Hideki Okatani! He isn’t ready to wrestle again just yet but once April comes around, the world will see what this new version of Okatani will get up to.

The match update for this show on the DDT website refers to Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro as a master and disciple relationship. Now there’s a future I see for Aino: The trainer of future champions!

Uta Takami is probably going to have a much nicer experience being in the ring with Miu Watanabe this time around. They won’t be fighting each other and they’ll have Raku & Pom Harajuku as their opponents so the potential beating will be more emotional than physical.

GANBARE☆PRO “SPRING BREAKERS 2024” Results

April 27, 2024

GANBARE☆PRO “SPRING BREAKERS 2024”, 27/04/2024
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
294 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Mizuki Watase & Rekka defeated Tyson Maeguchi & Tsuyoshi Okada when Watase pinned Okada with the Venetian (13:38).
2. Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Takuya Wada with the Modified Schwein (9:11).
3. PSYCHO, Yuna Manase & YuuRI defeated Minoru Fujita, Sayaka Unagi & HARUKAZE when YuuRI pinned HARUKAZE with the Swanton Bomb (15:47).
4. Yumehito Imanari & Tatsuhito Takaiwa defeated Ken Ohka & Fuminori Abe when Imanari pinned Ohka with the Lariat (16:46).
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii defeated Shuichiro Katsumura (c) with the Locomotion High Angle Double Arm DDT (19:59).
*Shuichiro Katsumura fails in V3. Keisuke Ishii becomes the 7th Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion!

A new chapter begins with a new champion! Keisuke Ishii is now the leading man for Ganbare☆Pro after he defeated Shuichiro Katsumura for the Spirit Of Ganbare Title. He was able to counter the Triple Three 3 Lock into a cradle to get Katsumura to let go of the hold. Ishii then hit the High Angle Double Arm DDT three times in a row to secure the title change. He wanted to speak after the match but Shinichiro Tominaga quickly grabbed the microphone off him. Tominaga said he wants to win the SOG Title and Ishii is a worthy champion. But it is a wrestler’s golden rule to take down their rival when they are weak. So that means Tominaga wants a shot at… the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles!

He noticed Katsumura was still recovering from the main event so he called out his tag team partner Takuya Wada, who he had defeated earlier in the show. Wada blamed Banny Oikawa for the result (she was the referee for their match) and asked Tominaga who is partner will be? Tominaga quietly admitted he asked everyone in the GanPro locker room but nobody stepped forward to accept his offer. However he still has friends in the student pro wrestling scene particularly in CWP who will do whatever he asks. Also today is Tominaga’s birthday so Wada cannot deny his wish. GROUND ABSOLUTE will accept his challenge and the match will take place on 18th May.

After that was all sorted out the new champion Ishii finally got to speak. He said today was the perfect moment for him to win the title and he feels lucky it went that way. GanPro is now under a new system which means he too is under a new system. Under this new system he will become the ace of GanPro! After the show had finished, Ishii announced to reporters that his first defence will be against Kouki Iwasaki on 18th May. Iwasaki had given him encouragement before today’s main event and he is also the kind of tough challenge Ishii wants to face.

Ken Ohka is feeling good despite losing his first GanPro match under the new management. He said GanPro will face a lot of hardships but it is something the group all built together. It does not need a parent company and will overcome any trouble that can get in their way. His attitude along with Yumehito Imanari has spread over to Tatsuhito Takaiwa and Fuminori Abe. Both of them admitted they did their best today because they got motivated from watching Ohka and Imanari.

There were a few changes to the undercard because Munetatsu Nakamura became unwell during the week and could not wrestle today. PSYCHO was added to Match #3. The match result was YuuRI pinning HARUKAZE and afterward she challenged Sayaka Unagi for the Kitsune World Title! YuuRI explained she wants to take GanPro worldwide and she can take a shortcut by winning Unagi’s championship from America. Unagi said she cannot see YuuRI going worldwide like she does but she wants to beat her in GanPro along with other people. She accepted the challenge and will assess YuuRI for the title on 18th May.

As already mentioned, Banny Oikawa was the referee for the Tominaga Vs Wada match. She almost became a target of some intentional crossfire moments which is why Wada blamed her for losing the match. However Tominaga did in fact beat him clean.

Rekka was moved to Match #1 as the replacement for Nakamura.

Moeka Haruhi announced she will return to wrestling and her first match back is happening on 15th July. She has been out of action since last summer after taking part in a kidney transplant operation for her sister. She said she may be small but she fights to leave a big impact with people. She hopes her return will move people’s hearts in a big way.

A new trainee was introduced to everyone. Shota Kawakami is a childhood friend of Munetatsu Nakamura and he will make his debut on 18th May. He said he wants to do his best to become the ace of pro wrestling inside a fiercely competitive ring.

At the start of the show Imanari revealed that he kept in contact with Shinjiro Otani during GanPro’s transition to their new system. Otani was originally an on-site manager for the promotion before his injury. He told Imanari he has no intention of giving up the role despite being unable to attend shows in his current condition. So it’s now publicly confirmed that Otani is continuing his role and Imanari will work as passionately as he does!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 SPRING” Results

April 27, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 SPRING”, 27/04/2024
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
223 Fans

1. Mahiro Kiryu defeated Kira Summer with a Crab Hold (5:07).
2. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Nao Kakuta and Chika Nanase when Tatsumi submitted Nanase with the Dragon Sleeper (10:38).
3. Maki Itoh & Uta Takami defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Toga when Itoh submitted Toga with the Itoh Special (10:06).
4. Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Mizuki & Shino Suzuki when Raku pinned Suzuki with the Doctor Yellow (8:42).
5. Wakana Uehara & HIMAWARI & Runa Okubo defeated Suzume, Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when HIMAWARI pinned Kazashiro after a Combined High Speed Brainbuster (13:18).
6. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino defeated Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto when Nakajima pinned Miyamoto with the Diving Senton (16:38).

It isn’t long now until Shoko Nakajima challenges Miu Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title during Golden Week. Today Nakajima’s message was load and clear. She hasn’t given anyone permission for the new era to take over Tokyo Joshi Pro yet! She countered Watanabe’s Giant Swing into a cradle and went on to pin Moka Miyamoto with the Diving Senton in the main event. Even Yuki Aino was impressed by her performance today. Nakajima wants to keep this up and be the kind of wrestler who can throw curveballs and fastballs at her unsuspecting opponents.

Wakana Uehara & HIMAWARI were able to show their growing teamwork by using a Combined Brainbuster to win their trios match. They still have time left before they challenge Daisy Monkey for the Princess Tag Team Titles so they would like to focus even more on their teamwork. Runa Okubo wrestled the match with an eye patch because she currently has a stye in her left eye.

When TJPW were preparing for their American shows earlier this month, Miyu Yamashita strongly encouraged them to produce double the amount of the show’s T-shirts expecting them to be in high demand. Unfortunately the extra shirts did not sell and had to go with the crew back to Japan. TJPW are now trying to sell off the extra shirts at their events as well as their online store. They are encouraging fans who bought the shirts to tweet pictures of them with the hashtag #山下ありがとう (“Thank You Yamashita”).

7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul
8. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Akito

Last week Sanshiro Takagi hatched a plan to get the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title off of Sayaka Unagi. He no longer trusts Unagi to protect the belt after she lost it to an unknown person in America last month and risked it disappearing from DDT forever. Takagi’s plan was to attack Unagi with a pack of Grilled Unagi in her dressing room before a press conference. Takagi choked Unagi with the unagi and she tapped out. The referee was about to hand Takagi the belt when he instead told him to give it to the Grilled Unagi! Sayaka Unagi got revenge during the press conference when she opened the pack of unagi, filled it in a bowl with rice and began to eat it. After taking a few bites, the referee checked on the unagi for any movement and ruled it had been knocked out which means Sayaka Unagi is the champion again! She then promised to defeat Takagi on behalf of all kinds of Unagi.

Keigo Nakamura asked MAO to put the DDT Universal Title on the line in their match. MAO likes the idea because the story of a wrestler winning the title in his comeback match from injury hasn’t happened before with the Universal Championship. He wants to do unprecedented things in his title reign and that matches what he is looking for. Nakamura developed a desire to win that particular championship while he was rehabbing from his injury.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HYPER MISAO PRODUCE ~ HYPE! 2” Results

April 19, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HYPER MISAO PRODUCE ~ HYPE! 2”, 19/04/2024
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
227 Fans – Super No Vacancy

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!!”

He’s been playing the long game, focusing more on targeting Yuki Ueno’s legs and wearing him down over time instead of winning all of their prelim matches against each other. It was only just at the end when Ueno started to show cracks in the armour, showing frustration over how Akito’s been handling him.
