>In the singles match in May, I said I didn't want to fight her because I love her, but to be honest, that feeling is still somewhere in my heart. . . >Shino-san's first win on her own, I'm confident that no one else among her peers would want to join her, and I definitely want to fight and team up with her.
>People tend to say that Shino-san doesn't seem like he can win, and he tends to think negatively easily, but since I've been practicing with him, I know that he's working hard and improving and steadily increasing the things he can do. I think people who have the heart to move forward one step at a time no matter how many times they feel like giving up are very, very strong!!
>It's true that she may not have been blessed with a good physique, but that's something she can do if she trains!! Shino-san, she always comes to the dojo!! She can work hard and do basic training steadily. I think being able to do this is Shino's overwhelming weapon!!
> It's my first singles match in six months, so I'm excited because there's a different kind of tension!
>Shino has grown since her debut.But I'm sure she's the one who's been able to grow... But it's not like I haven't done anything for the past six months without her!
>I know that we're both working hard, and that's why I want to fight with all my might!
>I love her so much that it's fun whether I win or lose.I want to have a match where we can say "I love you" to each other.
>But I can't let her get her first victory here on her own! She's fleeting!! I can't afford to lose!! That's why I'll fight with all my might today too
