[6.0] "This was a very solid show for the most part, with nearly every match being good, but not great. Only two matches really fell below that level for me and neither was particularly bad either. [MOTN: Arisu Endo vs. Miu Watanabe]"

[8.0] "Haru Kazashiro, HIMAWARI, Raku, Shoko Nakajima & Uta Takami vs Chika Nanase, Kira Summer, Toga, Wakana Uehara & Zara Zakher: A good paced opening match where all involved got their moment and show something, some great exchanges between Zara and Shoko [***]. Maki Itoh & Pom Harajuku vs Mahiro Kiryu & Rika Tatsumi: Pom and Maki had some interesting exchanges which was decent to watch, fun little match that had it's moments that made for an interesting watch [***1/4]. Yuki Aino vs Runa Okubo: A short match that could have been given more time as they weren't able to do much of anything due to the very limited time they had [*1/4]. Suzume vs Shino Suzuki: Suzuki being the least experienced of the two was able to shine against the more experienced Suzume, the action was solid and just wished it went on longer [**1/2]. Yuki Arai vs Kaya Toribami: Decent match that had some decent sequences, that had some limb work and they went at it and ended very suddenly, wish they had more time to shine [**1/4]. Mizuki vs Moka Miyamoto: Had the makings for a 4* match, but unforunately the pacing was slow to start but did pick up towards the end, the action was solid towards the end [***]. Miu Watanabe vs Arisu Endo: A great match to send the crowd home, both Endo and Watanabe had great outings in this one and it felt there was loads of chemistry between these two which made it even more compelling to watch [****1/4]"

[8.0] "A really good first night of TPC action here! I liked the variety of matches on the card, with the tags being a nice breeze of fun before the cup matches. Aino / Runa was ok, I liked Arai / Kaya + Mizuki / Moka, but for me the standout matches of the night were Suzume / Shino and Miu / Arisu. They both featured underdogs putting in fiery performances, more than matched by the passion of their opponents. Really simple stories to tell, but told very effectively!"

[6.0] "Decent matches to open the Princess Cup. Nothing really blew me away, but the brackets this year are kind of dull. I hope we can get some upsets to make the tournament interesting."

[8.0] "Probably the strongest bout of first round TPC matches, taken as a whole. There's some great stuff here."

[7.0] "Good opener to the TPC with a nice variety of matches. A nice easy to watch show with quick openers leading into good tournament matches."

[8.0] "A strong show with no weak matches. The undercard was 2 fun short matches that made way for the TPC battles, all of which had some special moments and good action."

[8.0] "A very good start for the princess cup. The undercard was entertaining and all the tournament match were at least solid, which isn't often the in the first round. I'm slightly surprised by the absence of upset; the main event is quite recommended."

"Leaving a comment not because I watched the full show (only watched the last 2 matches), but because there was an old dude in the front row wearing a Wizards Michael Jordan jersey. I saw it, and I want every one else to see it. Anyway, carry on."
