"High-speed Fairy" Natsupoi achieved a birthday victory. At "Sammy presents STARDOM 5★STAR GP 2026 in TOYOHASHI" held on July 19th (Sunday) at the Loisir Hotel Toyohashi Holiday Hall in Aichi, she teamed with Saori Anno in the first match against Matoi Hamabe and Emma Namashima
At the Ota Ward tournament the previous day, she challenged IWGP Women's Champion Shuri. She came very close to winning, but ultimately fell short of the belt
Natsupoi, whose birthday was that day, changed her mindset and entered the ring in a celebratory mood. She and Anno worked together brilliantly to attack Hamabe
However, during the match, at Anno's instruction, Hamabe and Tanashima put Natsupoi on the ropes. Then Anno put a birthday hat on Natsupoi's head and said, "Happy birthday!" Anno, Hamabe, Tanashima, and their second, Kurei Sayaka, celebrated with a giant party popper
Now fired up, the fairy launched a flying body attack on Mashima. After fending off the counterattack, she finally defeated Mashima with a Poi Rock
After the match, Anno grabbed the microphone and began teasingly, "Natsumi. I felt like there was something I needed to tell you. It was about a year ago, I think. I've wanted to tell you this for a long time. I think I can say it properly now, so I'll say it," before saying, "Happy Birthday!" and holding up a balloon with "31" on it
Natsupoi was surprised, saying, "When did you prepare something like this? I'm so surprised!" She then added, "Thank you, Saori! I've turned 31. Just like the miraculous 35-year-old, I'm aiming to be a miraculous 31-year-old, and I want to continue to pursue strength and beauty! Please continue to support me in the future as well."
