The spring festival, "Cinderella Tournament 2026," held its final match at the Yokohama Budokan on the 15th, where Hanan won the sisterly showdown against Rinami, achieving her second championship title in two years
In the semi-finals held on the same day, Hanan defeated Sakuya Aya, and then faced Rinami, who had also overcome Amasaki Mitsuyoshi to reach the championship match for the second consecutive year. From the start, Hanan was overwhelmed by Rinami's fierce attack and was pushed to the brink of defeat
Even so, it was still past the 10-minute mark. He executed a desperate plancha and followed up with a Famouser. He was then cornered by a Hydrangea, but he refused to tap out. He desperately continued to look for an opportunity, getting back up like a zombie
It was just over 20 minutes into the match. He went from a locomotion-style back drop to a rock drop hold. When that still didn't work, he finally managed to get the three count with a wrist-clutch style back rope hold at exactly 22 minutes
After the match, she burst into tears, saying, "We met in the finals. Do you remember when we watched the first ever Cinderella Tournament together at home on Samurai TV? I'm so happy that the two of us are competing in the Cinderella finals!" She then called out to Rina, "I lost to you in the semi-finals last year, so I got my revenge today. We're still rivals, aren't we?" and vowed, "Watch me as I climb back up from here and stand in the center of Stardom!"
In the ceremony, where she was clad in a rainbow-colored dress, she expressed her wish as the Cinderella champion, saying, "I want to challenge Konami for the Wonder of Stardom belt." She also promised, "I will illuminate the dark world of Stardom."
But then... a nightmare awaited her at the very end. As she walked back down the aisle, Konami was waiting behind the gate. By the time Hanan realized what was happening, it was too late. To make matters worse, she was sprayed with black paint, staining not only her face but also her dress black
Konami left the scene with a sinister smile, saying, "Your Cinderella story has come to a bad end. Hanan, it's over!" Thus, the spring festival, which had been full of twists and turns until the very end, came to a close
