Masa Takanashi VS Chon Shiryu
Annual Battle! Drunk vs Dragon!
Finally, they get to go beyond an exhibition match!
Drunken Brawler, Masa Takanashi, takes on
the Kung Fu Specialist, Chon Shiryu every year for Gatoh Move. Unfortunately the combination of the Pandemic and Masa's injury postponed this annual bout. However, now that Masa has fully returned to action, the match can finally happen! While appearing in front of the online audience might be a bit different than what they are used to for this traditional match, the battle should be just as intense. Two of the Pillars of Gatoh Move collide! Masa is a swaying, smooth as butter Counter Style brawler. He'll damage your limbs, your nose, and probably your ego! While his movements might seem drunken, this technician tends to make his foes feel like they're the ones that are hung over. Chon Shiryu on the other hand is called the Dragon with good reason. His lighter-than-air movements and brutal alternative strikes are a positively flashy affair. Chon tends to make every match look like a fight scene from a Jackie Chan movie (his idol!) with his expertise in motion and punishment. Who will come out the victor this year?
Mei Suruga, Chie, & Otoki
VS
Anton, Hagane Shinno, & Akki
Team Shuffle: The Essence of Gatoh Move!
Gatoh Move is famous for the fact that any match can happen! What potential match ups and twists does GTMV bring about? Kenny Omega fighting Kaori Yoneyama? Check! A Kappa entering itself into a Battle Royale? Check! The Tag Teams of ChocoPro being split up for a special mixed wrestling match? Let's check this one off, too: White Comaneci (Otoki & Anton), Best Bros (Mei & Akki), and EGG TART (Chie & Hagane) are split up and rearranged in a fun Trios match! How will the suddenly formed teams get along? While the Joshi team of
Mei, Otoki, and Chie have a lot of vicious rage and goblin energy on their side, the Puro team of
Anton, Hagane, and Akki have the veteran experience and technical advantage! Can the Apple Girl, Super Rookie, and Frantic Fencer work together well enough to bring down the Storyteller, Cold Killer, and the Ace all at once? There are so many combustible elements in this match! Expect a lot of madcap action and probably a lot of comedy, given that Anton is in it! This will be one for the ages.
Yuna Mizumori VS Makoto
The Beautiful War!
Papaya! Mango! Coconut! Tropical.....YAHHO!
“Tropical Fairy” Yunamon finally gets another singles match! Due to her Idol schedule and her appearances for other promotions including Ganbare Joshi & Actwres Girlz, Yuna hasn't been as active in ChocoPro as she was in the earlier seasons. While she has gotten plenty of tag battles, it has been over 30 episodes since the Sing Song Lariat Machine got a solo bout! Makoto is definitely a challenge worthy of one of the “Top Three” (according to Akki) of ChocoPro. Yunamon brings a vibrant charisma and a ridiculous mix of speed and power that will get you on your feet! There is something indescribable about her matches, the way she yells with passion, the way she calls out her Tropical Moves, the way she makes such grand entrances! One of the biggest assets of Yuna Mizumori is her nearly limitless supply of endurance. This stamina monster will keep going and going well beyond the normal level, pushing her limits far beyond imagining! This fight will be a good test of her survival skills, considering the overwhelming presence of her foe...Yuna might need to unleash that devastating Spinning Back Kick for this one!
”Oriental Doll”, Makoto, returns for the second time this season! This imposing, elegant, and intense member of Las Fresa de Egoistas (the other key frequent being ASUKA / VENY) has come back to assert her beautiful dominance once again! The graceful fighter is well acquainted with Ichigaya and Gatoh Move as a whole, being one of Emi's (and Tajiri's) veteran students! This adaptable freelancer makes her own way in the world, appearing in many promotions across the Joshi scene. Makoto brings with her the legacy of Emi Sakura, though the Oni's aspect comes out in different ways you should be able to understand rather quickly...Makoto is deceptively strong and unmercifully cruel when she needs to be, not being afraid to bend the rules in her favor. Her alluring demeanor and poise might fool you for a moment, as will that innocent (though intense and confident) smirk. While she possesses an impressive toolkit befitting the eternal rival of Riho, watch out for her scary striking ability. Can Yunamon bring down one of the most powerful students of the Oni? Can the strength of the Beauty As Is mantra help her bring down her beautiful adversary? Has the Pineapple Girl grown to the point she can pin one of the upper echelon? Let's find out together!
