How Shirakawa, who belongs to both Cosmic Angels and Club Venus, leads her partner will likely be the key to victory

Giulia: "Hello everyone in Shizuoka. Himeka's retirement has been announced, and today's match is probably the last direct confrontation between two Donna del Mondo stablemates. So everyone who came here today is super lucky. That's why I'm sure everyone is curious. I want to hear Himeka's mic skills."
Himeka: "As was announced the other day, I will be retiring from professional wrestling in May. This Fuji tournament, Fujisan Messe, will probably be my last time here. But I think it's a miracle that I can come here and meet all of you, and everyone, what did you think of today's DDM intern vs. intern match? I've been with the wonderful DDM for two and a half years, and I want to run through to the end with DDM. There are still three months left, so I would be happy if you would watch until the very end. Sakurai, Thekla, Maika, Giulia, Lady "D". And Himeka. Big is strong, big is justice. And big is cute."
Julia: "Arrivederci, see you later!"
Comment from DDM
Maika: "Why are you (Lady) the one crying the most!? You shouldn't be crying!"
Himeka: "If you're feeling lonely, it probably means you want to join DDM. You've made up your mind to become Lady D."
Maika: "You've already made up your mind, haven't you? The resolve to become Lady D."
Lady: "...Um, well, let me think about it later..."
Maika: "Later?! There's no time for that. Decide now!"
Himeka: "I only have three months left, so decide now. Here you go."
Maika: "Here you go. What are those tears for?"
Lady: "I'm really sad that Himeka is retiring..."
Maika: "So that means?"
Himeka: "So?"
Lady: "Let me be your second and support you for the full three months..."
Maika: "Eh?!"
Lady: "I want to watch Himeka, so I'll be cheering her on from the corner..."
DDM: "Bye-bye!" (DDM calls for people to go home)
Lady: "Isn't that a bit harsh treatment all of a sudden?"
Maika: "Your home is QQ, right? Go home, go home."
Himeka: "Bye-bye, thank you for the past few months."
Julia: "Sad C, lonely C, Lady C"
Lady: "I'm lonely!"
Giulia: "Thank you very much. Thank you so much. You're right, this match today might be the last direct match between two teammates. It's a little sad. Having Himeka in DDM is really reassuring, and I'm truly grateful for how far she's come. But I won't say anything more to her. There are still three months left."
Himeka: "For me, Stardom memories are synonymous with DDM memories, or rather, memories of DDM, so I believe that I have my current place because Giulia created it for me. For the remaining three months, I want to give it my all so that we can create wonderful memories and records for both DDM and myself."
Sakurai: "I owe Himeka a great debt of gratitude, and I was able to come to Stardom thanks to Himeka, so I will work hard to become even stronger so that I can repay Himeka for her kindness."
Tekura: "It's a shame, but somehow it looks like a happy retirement, so it can't be helped. Do your best in life."
Himeka: "I'll do my best (laughs)"
Maika: "I still have a lot to offer."
Julia: "All the customers who came today were so warm and welcoming, and I think they'll have made some great memories. I think this is all thanks to Himeka's power, so let's do our best for the next three months! Arrivederci, see you next time!"
