Tokyo Joshi Pro - Let's Go To Osaka In The Spring, Together With Your Friends! (4/7/2018)

2. Miu vs. Yuu

This was an amazing burst of violence. It only lasts 4-minutes, but the action was laser-focused and economical. The Pink Up Up Girl was working hard.

***1/2

3. Maki Ito vs. Nodoka-oneesan vs. Shoko Nakajima

I can't say I'm fond of these 3WAY matches most of the time, but this one was great. The action was exciting and flowed smoothly, and the comedy was well-played. Ito was phenomenal, one of her best performances yet.

***3/4

4. Dragon Bombers (Maho Kurone & Rika Tatsumi) vs. Hyper Misao & Priscilla Kelly

I expected this to be a cringefest with Maho and Priscilla feuding, but I actually dug their interactions - great clash of characters. Misao as the hot tag was fascinating as well, I don't think I've ever seen her wrestle with so much momentum. Oh, and there's no way I can't mention the spot where Rika gets her ass eaten by Priscilla (and powers through it).

***3/4

6. Marika Kobashi vs. Miyu Yamashita

Big Match Marika does it again. This match was intense, action-packed despite only being 8-minutes. The work was tight and precise, and the pacing and transitions felt organic. Miyu kept things exciting with the neat ways she found to kick Marika in the head, and some of those chops from Marika were brutal.
