3. Mizuki vs. Raku
Raku’s most impressive performance to date. She showed good offense, reflexes, workrate, and determination. Her sleeper technique seems solid and has the potential to be a useful tool when she develops it. Mizuki does a good leading. Her subtle heel work coupled with wacky mannerisms and facials has made her stand out this year. They created exciting moments towards the end with counters and finisher teases.
***1/4
5. Misao vs. Miu Watanabe
Misao has been shining with her aggression and heel work. Also her European style transitions are smooth and feel appropriate for the character. Miu worked another good performance underneath - great selling and timing, explosive power in her comebacks. The giant swing turned into a boston crab was a nice combination. They worked a great match that elevated the younger Miu and put over Misao as a killer.
***1/2
