Ancham

[10.0] "Cham is an incredible wrestler. Trained by Yuki Ishikawa, who was trained by Yoshiaki Fujiwara and Karl Gotch. So of course her skillset of grappling, submission holds and leathal strikes make her really stand out. She really understands to deliver technical masterclass while not losing any kind of speed or storytelling. Her nickname the joint lock angel is quite logical. She also has a really comedic side, which she blends effortlessly into her craft in the ring. Currently (July 2025) she is a vital part of Ice Ribbon and the international tag champ with Yappy, together as Bad Butts. In Sukeban she is Babyface in which she interprets her character a little bit different, but here and there the real Ancham comes out, if you see Sukeban matches. And yeah, she is a fearless deathmatch warrior!"

[7.0] "She's a very good mat technician and has all the hallmarks of a really good prospect but has yet to truly be put in a spot where she can show her full potential. So far she's proven she's a good undercard tag hand but she's not on the same rocket path up the ranks as someone like Tomoka Inaba or Hanan, until she proves she can show out in big tags/singles matches I think a 7 is more than fair."

[8.0] "Ancham's mat wrestling skills are quite solid, as other ratings have referenced, but her strikes leave something to be desired and she needs a bit of polish. More consistent ring time will be a benefit to her. A 7 feels right for where she is at the moment, but she has a very high ceiling. [July 17, 2024 edit: The strikes have been improved and there are few finer grapplers out there. Upgrading to an 8.]"

[10.0] "Ancham deserves nothing less than a perfect 10. At only 24 years old she's not only "payed her dues", but she is a one of the best in ring technicians. She has so much finesse. Her submission holds are smooth and cool looking. She does a bridge that is photo perfect. You can see for yourself when she retweets some of the pictures on her twitter. The nitpick someone can make is maybe how what tv show she is not on, or what belt she did not win. I don't go around looking for things wrong, but you will not find a folly in Ancham. Even her costumes are always good. She is about as close to perfect as you can get."

[8.0] "Ancham is very consistent in the ring. She could become a strong contender in the near future since she's slowly getting over her rookie years."

[9.0] "AnCham is an INCREDIBLE mat wrestler. The fact that she trains with Yuki Ishikawa shows. She got a cool unique look, personality and great grappling. Her kicks are solid and she sells pretty well, but where she really shines is in submissions. Intelligent use of submissions with transitions that logically follow from what an opponent is trying to do within the submission, with constant counters figured out for what they try to do, and a million and one counters prepared to get an attacking opponent into a submission. In particular turning kickouts into armbars or countering lariats into reverse leg locks. Really comes across like master strategist tinkering with her gameplan as the match continues. Only three years into her career (and well less than that really, as she lost months last year due to cancer treatments), it's really stunning to see not only the skill, but the thought process too."
