>[Stardom] World Champion Maika's "Dedication": Waka Tsukiyama, Hanako, and Others Appreciate Her "Leadership"
>Through our interviews, we heard about the efforts of the world champion, who in January joined forces with Mina Shirakawa to form "E-Nexus Vie (EXV)" with Waka Tsukiyama, Hanako, and Xena. Tsukiyama, who has been coaching me on a regular basis, said, "Maika-san watched my matches and said, 'No one can do such strange moves, so in a way it's my strength. She told me that I should know myself better and develop my own techniques with more ingenuity. Since then, my awareness has changed. Maika-san doesn't start with negativity, but rather affirms it. I respect her as a person.
>Maika, who is also nervous about the newcomer's body, introduced HANAKO to her own personal gym. Hanako said, "Maika has been paying for it without saying anything. The trainer at the gym told me, 'Actually, Maika told me to keep it a secret, but...' I was really touched. Maika also adjusted her diet to my weight loss and took care of me a lot. She is a senior whom I respect very much.
