This is a six-person tag team match between E neXus V's team of Maika, Tsukiyama Waka, and HANAKO, and Mi Vida Roka's team of Suzuki Suzu, Yamashita Rina, and Aoki Itsuki. A full-scale confrontation between the two teams will take place at the big match in Osaka on February 7th, so this match is a preliminary bout. Matches for both units are scheduled for the following day, so they will clash for two consecutive days. Following the Takamatsu event, will HANAKO rebel against Maika at Korakuen Hall as well? The rift in EXV's teamwork is something to watch out for

Yamashita: "It's fine that you guys are clashing with each other seriously. Don't think that those of you who are squabbling amongst yourselves can beat Mi Vida Roca. We're not that weak. I'll give you a hint, a big hint, make sure you figure out who the real enemy is!"
