[9.0] "The first half was nothing out of the ordinary but the last three matches are absolutely recommended, especially the main event, which to me is a candidate for match of the year."
[7.0] "Itsuki Hoshino -vs- Leo Onozaki [3/4*] Not very convincing, but Hoshino gets a solid win for herself. DEATH Yama-san & Leyla Hirsch -vs- Jamie Hayter & Zoe Skye -vs- Saya Kamitani & Saya Iida -vs- Tam Nakano & Starlight Kid -vs- Rina & Hina - (Gauntlet) [*] These gauntlet matches were over before they meant anything. Natsuko Tora & Saki Kashima & Sumire Natsu -vs- Hana Kimura & Jungle Kyona & Konami [* 3/4] Alright, but this didn't reach any peak apart from Hana's laughing fits. Momo Watanabe & Utami Hayashishita & AZM (c) -vs- Giulia & Shuri & Maika - (Artist of Stardom Title) [** 1/2] Okay match, but not the kind of display that'll steal a show. Effective in establishing Donna del Mondo as the new key stable in Stardom. Arisa Hoshiki (c) -vs- Bea Priestley - (Wonder of Stardom Title) [***] I wasn't feeling any peaks, but it was downright solid. Bea was on stalking on her prey and doing damage effectively. Hoshiki was hanging in there and getting credible desperation offence, not letting Bea take complete control. Wish there'd been a stronger climax portion, but the end held the same class as the rest of the match and was fine. Takumi Iroha -vs- Mayu Iwatani [*** 1/2] Iroha was a last-minute replacement for Sareee, so the match lacked any specific hype or heat to build on. That's the main set-back. However, they delivered a stunning trashing. While originally a Stadom girl, Iroha wrestles represents Marvelous now, yet got to dominate the Stardom Red Belt holder in a convincing manner. Iwatani is so likable that it doesn't really hurt her that much, but not sure this was best for business unless it leads to a actual title bout down the line. At least there was some super hot bits in this bout, and they kept it stiff in true ace-style! Honestly, The match definitely has a lot of positivity and one that one can easily sit back and enjoy."
[8.0] "This followed a similar pattern to last month's Korakuen event, with the opening few matches being fine, but the second half of the event being very good. Mayu vs Takumi was the best women's match of the year so far and the winner was a genuine surprise to me; the post match events also set up some interesting things for the near future. Bea vs Arisa had some slow moments, but overall was an enjoyable match, as was the Artist of Stardom title match, which has been a common theme with them as of late."
[9.0] "Another very good Stardom Korakuen Hall show, even though it was a step down from two previous Korakuens. Another very easy to watch show, and not just because there's only five matches. You can skip the gauntlet match though - it was fine but inconsequental, and the most notable thing was that Saya Kamitani pinned Starlight Kid. Oedo Tai/TCS was good, and it feels like that it will only get better for Oedo Tai from here, I really liked their new fresh look and remixed theme song. Last three matches are great in their own different way (Hoshiki-Priestley was ACKCHYUALLY good), but if you have time only for one match - watch the Main Event."
