The spring festival, the "Cinderella Tournament," opened on the 6th at the Chunichi Hall in Aichi, and Hanan, aiming for their first championship in two years, got off to a good start
In the first round, she faced Momoko Kogo, also from STARS. After withstanding Kogo's prolonged onslaught, she unleashed a devastating counter-attack with a neckbreaker. This stopped her opponent's movement, and she secured the three-count with a powerful backdrop hold.
"I made it through the first round!" shouted Hanan, then praised Kogo, saying, "Thank you for the match against a fellow student. Your growth is incredible. It was really incredible. I'm so happy to have such a strong opponent next to me and to be able to compete against him."
Then Kogo also said, "I've been watching her from the sidelines for a long time and I knew it, but Hanan-san is really amazing. There's her personality and her incredible wrestling skills, but she has it all and is cool. But today, I'm happy to hear that I've grown, but I don't want to stop at just having grown, so I feel more frustrated than happy," biting her lip
In the second round (on the 8th at Korakuen Hall), she will face Ranna Yagami, who defeated Wakana Tsukiyama on the same day. Hana vowed, "I want to win the tournament properly and wear the white belt properly. I'm the only one who can take it from Konami. Hana will be this year's Cinderella!" and concluded the tournament
She won the 2024 tournament and challenged the then-Wonderland Champion, Saori Anno. However, she was unable to win the title. This year, she has only one goal: to win the Cinderella title for the second time and then claim the Wonderland Championship, currently held by Konami, for the first time
