Chairs, crowd brawling, wince-inducing strikes, and an unhealthy amount of headbutts make this one of the most violent, intense, and wild matches that I've seen in the 21st century. They throw in some grappling and some out-of-nowhere submission spots that do a really good job at establishing that both woman are capable of winning the match in an instant, and there's some great character work on display. One that I am seriously considering.

SWEET! I literally watched their 8/18/13 JWP today and really liked it. I've watched 3 Arisa Nakajima matches so far and have really enjoyed each one.

Yeah this is my 2013 Joshi MOTY and I think I like it a bit more after rewatching it. It just has such hard-hitting nastiness throughout and the brawling on the outside is some of the best non-contrived looking version of it I've seen post 2000 maybe. The only thing that holds this back a bit for me is I wish they'd quit it with the headbutts. I'd really rather wrestlers bladed or something than do that.

Definitely a third
Holy fuck this is insanely violent. They do a great job of getting across that this is a really out of control uncooperative fight. Big fan of this. Definitely want to revisit this again down the road after I've watched a bunch more modern joshi. On a first watch this really seems like one I'm going to remember.

This was excellent. The start of the match featured great outside of the ring brawling and the level of intensity stayed high. I agree that the way this was worked made it feel like either could win in a flash.
