How did it feel to be in the ring for the first time in about a year?
>I'm extremely frustrated. But I also feel relieved that I was able to leave the ring without any injuries in my return match. As for the fight, I was completely torn apart by HATE. I couldn't get revenge from a year ago, so I felt even more determined to get revenge.

You were sidelined due to injury in July last year. During your long absence, the landscape of Stardom changed drastically.
>I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. But more than anything, after I returned, I was excited to think about what I could do in the Stardom ring.

You made your return at the Yoyogi tournament on June 21st. How did it feel in the ring?
>In terms of movement, I don't think it was that bad. For about two years since I first stepped into the Stardom ring, I had been fighting without an anterior cruciate ligament in my left knee. I've had reconstructive surgery now and it's in perfect condition. So I don't have any wobble, and it's even better than it was a year ago.

What do you want to do when you return?
>During my absence, I was watching the ring from the commentary booth. One thing I noticed was that Stardom wrestlers were coming home to their hometowns for triumphant returns. I was so jealous. It gave me a goal to definitely play in a big match in my hometown of Fukushima. And one more thing, I would like to win the Artist of Stardom Championship with God's Eye. As for the belt, I would of course like to aim for a singles title as well.
