The top 2 in each block advance to the Quarterfinals. In Block A, Anou moves on if she beats Koguma in her final match. Everyone else is still in it but they (and definitely Amasaki & Jay) need Kid-Gina to be a no contest or some no point scenario. Right now Anou holds all the relevant tiebreakers as her only loss so far is to Jay, but she went to a draw against Kid. In Block B, Kashima was denied a Quarterfinals spot today by Kamitani but still has a key tiebreaker because she beat Sera already. Yagami & Thekla are now out because of tiebreakers while Kashima stayed alive largely because she’s now beaten Kamitani and also Hanan but would lose to Sera. Kamitani has Suzuki next but needs help to advance before her final match but perhaps fortunately for her it’s Yagami. Sera is in a bad spot because she only has one match left while Suzuki & Hanan have two. Interestingly, both have the same remaining foes-Yagami & Kamitani-and remember the Suzuki-Hanan result was a draw so if they tie for one spot we’ll probably need a rematch.
The next event is Friday at Sendai Pit in Sendai with the Red Blocks. Live streaming on Stardom World will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.
