Hikari (ProWres) created a new song with Kakuta Nao, another female pro wrestler from TJPW.

I can't really grasp much info on this due to limited japanese, but it seems Michitomo and Yamada were the composers of said song.

Here's the link if anyone is interested or could provide some more info (the Michitomo/Yamada reference is in the response)

I like her and all, but I never got Mayu's appeal. I always thought Honoka was the one with ace material and would be the front girl (guess she is now)

I would apreciate some enlightment about Mayu though, what makes her special and appealing?

She had prior idol experience. Her birthday and age is the same as ace Sayashi Riho. She is tall, multi-talented, charismatic. She is from Akita prefecture. She is a gamer. An all-arounder.

Yeah, she is amazing, but I always saw Honoka as the ace material for some reason. I do see Mayu as a more stable singer than many of them and I always thought that was a factor for a front girl. Guess I don't see aces as other people do

Honoka is the main reason I keep an eye on UUG (2).
It's an interesting group with a lot to offer, but she's the main draw for me.

What I like about Mayu?

1) She's pretty but also... kind of weird looking? Her eyes are big for her face, and her philtrum (the space under her nose) is really small. It gives her a bit of a cartoonish appearance but somehow really cute (to me)
2) She loves singing. She's the type of person who would be heartfelt, enthusiastic and inclusive in a karaoke, not showoff-y or competitive. (Like, Tsubaki's Kishimon is a force of nature on the mic, but I have no doubt she will body you and then back up and run you over in karaoke)
3) She comes off as having a really gentle and kind personality.
4) I like her personal clothing style. Not too flashy, just a little hint of idol sensibility.

I really liked her 500% more after seeing her perform Higedan's Hyakujuugoman no FILM with Chinatsu


Anyway, nowadays my main interest in UUG(2) is Shima-chan. She's so tiny and adorable, she's like a chibi version of the already chibi actress Karen Fukuhara

It's light and catchy. I like it.
