Natsupoi's comment
"(Showing the hand part of her costume) The Future Champion was so hot that my new costume got this damaged. I've never held the Future title, I couldn't walk the path of the Future, and I can't walk it now, but I really tasted the flavor of the Future title. Seriously, age and experience don't matter, every ring is exciting and educational, and I learned so much. But whether it's singles or tag team, I will never lose. Next up, Osaka, Kicchan. It won't be a draw like last year, so I'll make sure she tastes the flavor of revolution. Bye-bye."

Shirakawa's comment
"Yay! I got two points! Thinking about Keiji Mutoh's retirement, I've been thinking that I want to become a wrestler who can get a submission with a figure-four leglock, so I've been trying out leg attacks recently, and I finally achieved that goal today. After all, wrestlers like Liger and Mutoh are amazing just by standing there. I love those kinds of matches, so I want to become a wrestler who can do that properly, and I've achieved one of my goals. When I say that, Liger, Inoki, Mutoh, and other legendary wrestlers all have an aura just by standing there. Sorei Ami already has that. That's why I'm really jealous. So I'll use my head and my heart more and more, love pro wrestling more and go higher. And I will definitely become the white belt champion!"

But I won today. I think I've crossed that formidable wall just a little bit. But it's not over yet. I'm still going to explode, I'm not done yet. Just watch."

4 minutes 22 seconds |
Mai Sakurai <8 points> |
Utami Hayashishita and Mai Sakurai will clash in the 5★STAR GP. Will this be a match between two players with unexpected records?

A win for Sakurai here would put her ahead of Hayashishita, making this a particularly interesting match. Will Hayashishita secure two points and stay in contention for the championship, or will Sakurai pull off a stunning upset and take the lead?

Comment from Utami
"I beat Sakurai and got two points again. I lost to AZM yesterday, but I switched my mindset and managed to get two points today. I don't see Sakurai much because we're not in the same unit, but I can feel that she's growing day by day. I'm still far from reaching Hayashishita Utami's level, but as someone born on the same day, September 14th , I'd like to support her a little from the sidelines. So, Hayashishita Utami will turn 24 on September 14th . Thank you. I'm looking forward to receiving lots of heartfelt letters from all of you. Thank you very much. Now that I'm 24, I wonder if I still held the belt last year when I was 23 ... As for my 24th year, I made 23 my year as Hayashishita Utami, so I've become more settled, but I'll use that as a springboard and make 24 my year as Hayashishita Utami cool, royal, and beautiful again."

5 minutes 45 seconds |
AZM <12 points> |
AZM won her match against fellow stablemate Utami Hayashishita at the Yokohama tournament the previous day, putting her ahead of the former Red Belt champion and leading the Red Stars. Her opponent today is Risa Sera of Prominence. Although they have played more matches, Sera also has only two losses, just like AZM, so she is still within striking distance.

Sera's comment
"I thought she'd come at me from the start since she's the high-speed champion, and I was wary of that, but she was fast, as expected. I thought I'd win if I could just stop her movement once, so that was the only thing I was able to do. What do you call it, I think she tried to roll me up with a hurricanrana? I think being able to stop that and do a giant swing was a big part of my victory. She's my contemporary, I think. She's so small but she's my contemporary. She's only twenty, she's almost there, and even though she's my contemporary, I'm not going to lose to a youngster like her. But it was kind of fun, so I hope we can do it again."

Right now, everyone in Kozuen is desperately struggling to become number one, some are fighting the fear of having their place threatened, some are struggling with the feeling that they have to take the lead, and some are struggling to produce results. To be honest, it's really tough right now. But we can only become number one by overcoming this pain. The bond of Kozuen won't crumble here. Everyone, please believe in us and follow us. We will definitely make you happy."

I won the main event at the end, but I don't have the energy left to speak on the mic. I just want to go home, I just want to go home. Yesterday at Yokohama Budokan I15-minute draw with Giulia, and today too... But I managed to get 2 points, so there's a good chance that Iwatani Mayu will win the championship. STARS 3, please wrap things up for me."
Iida: "Mayu-san has taken quite a bit of damage, but I've taken quite a bit of damage too. Because I beat Hazuki-san, who is my mentor in STARS! I finally managed to score two points this time, and I beat Hazuki-san, so I'll be closing out this Korakuen Hall event. So I'll believe in tomorrow... (Mukou points out her mistake) I'll believe in the present!"
Hanan: "Believe in the present, shine tomorrow, we are STARS!"
Iwatani's comment
Iwatani: "I managed to get two points. It was a bit tough. At the end, it was kind of a matter of mental fortitude. But I really wanted to win my first match against Suzu Suzuki by landing a dragon or moonsault, but I'm glad I won, even if it was by pinning. There's still a good chance that Iwatani Mayu will win the championship. Probably. I don't know, though, what everyone's scores are. But I'm going to run through this summer and show everyone a different Iwatani Mayu in 2022, that's all. Ah, it was tough. Thank you."
