A terrible year for Tooj in terms of booking, inspiration, hype etc. There was only a small glimmer of hope for the future in ME on the Anniversary Show. TK finally spotlighting some intrigue with a generational conflict; however, this spotlight drew attention to how far the next gen has to go if they're going to eventually lead the brand. Miu has followed Shoko's path, and taken wrestling seriously. For the last 5 years she's worked hard to develop herself and is ready. Arisu is a tier below her but she shows promise. Her development has been fast and very enjoyable to follow. I was very pleased to see her get the point win for her team, even if its timing and expression in the match were not ideal. Suzu takes number 3. I'm afraid she's hit her development ceiling as Arisu has surpassed her. Moka I just don't see it; Arai is a great attraction but nonetheless not a full-time player and, I don't believe she will transition to a full-time wrestler when she graduates SKE48. In short, I feel that only 2 newish players are capable and ready to be Tooj headliners.
