Maria & Riko Kawahata vs. Nanae Takahashi & Seri Yamaoka

[9.0] "This was my first time watching Magenta as a team (I've seen them in singles matches or with other gimmicks) and apparently this was their first match as heels and I thought they did a good job here, this match was action from start to finish and imo it was the best match on the show"

[6.0] "Although Magenta was a good choice to take the belts from Nanae and Seri, the match itself was "decent to good". I don't know, I think the end was more slow than it should be, and the final minutes felt a bit stale. But I enjoyed the match by the middle of it. (***1/4)"

[7.0] "Magneta have gone goth like a bunch of edgy teenagers in suburbia. Like most of their matches, it builds really nicely so I was really into it by the end. Good stuff."

[6.0] "Fine tag match. Few things I could nitpick, with the main one being it didn't feel like they were laying strikes in at times. Outside of that it's a very respectable match. 3.25"

[7.0] "Good match for the Twin Star title. Good back and forth action with the teams working well together. There wasn't anything too impressive that happened, this felt very straightforward. Magenta just turned heel recently and are still working out all the kinks, but overall Maria and Riko did well in their first big match since the change. Nanae as usual kept the energy level up and beat up her opponents without it being over the top. Seri did a good job, too. She can sometimes look a little overwhelmed when asked to do too much but here she looked comfortable. Seri got a couple of visual pinfalls but thanks to a ref bump didn't result in victory. Riko managed to get the better of Seri and hit a moonsault for the win. Magenta are the new champions, which was the right move otherwise Nanae would have soon retired without having dropped her title. Seri taking the fall made sense, it serves as a reminder that despite her super rookie status she can be beaten. It also makes the feud between Marigold and Marvelous more interesting with a title in the hands of the rival company. 7/10"

[8.0] "Typical high quality match involving these 4 women that's aided by Magenta being a legitimate tag team with years of history who wrestle as such. Loved the opening with Maria punking out Seri and then starting shit with Nanae (who she has history with that goes all the way back to at least 2020 in SEAdLINNNG). Seri getting pinned was smart too as that leads to more interesting stories and it also seems to indicate that Rossy has learnt his lesson about protecting his projects too much; in layman's terms, Seri could and should have been pinned here. Post-match was amusing too with Magenta truly looking like the cats who got the cream (their play on Marigold's "Shine Forever" show closer was amusingly bitchy too). The Marigold/Marvelous feud continues to heat up and continues to provide highly enjoyable stuff."

[7.0] "Magenta's first any work as a heel, a lot of people complain about their appearance and especially the lack of eyebrows, I don't care about the appearance as long as you present good wrestling. I think Maria feels much better as a heel compared to Riko who looked a little confused in that role, but it's their first work, Saya didn't look good at first either and it got better as time went on. Seri looked very good in this match, possibly one of her better individual performances. Magenta wins. Solid Match, I'm curious which way it will go next"

[8.0] "A very good match, even if it was probably Nanae and Seri's weakest title defense, which still says a lot about their overall quality of their run. Magenta keeping the match mostly clean, aside from the spot where they pulled the referee out of the ring, was a pleasant surprise given their recent heel turn. The finishing stretch was strong, and Seri delivered all the right emotions to elevate the moment."

[6.0] "New look for MAGENTA as they relaunch their tag run with a win that, in many ways, felt like the expected outcome. Nanae Takahashi did a solid job as both tag champ and mentor to Seri Yamaoka, who despite more than an issue with match psychology, proved she can hang at Championship level in Marigold. That said, the match itself was fairly bland, with several rough spots, especially from MAGENTA. Maybe next time they should focus more on the match than the aesthetics considering they are both really good wrestlers. Still, it's a bit of a shame to see Seri taking the pinfall in the end, she was genuinely breaking in tears."
