L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

Alizeh had the upper hand so far thanks to her technical skill shining through, taking Kimiko and causing some early damage. Something that would be all too useful later on. That was then though, as for now Kimiko was back up and after circling for a moment Alizeh would dart forward, intending on trying to lock up once again.

Kimiko though seemed to want a change in pace as she swung her leg up at Alizeh with a kick! Eyes widening in response Alizeh would try and put her arms up, partially blocking the kick as it connected, but she was still rocked and sent hurtling backwards onto her but with a groan, disoriented from the sudden blow.

Kimiko's kick was nearly blocked though it still managed to connect with its target sending Alizeh back down onto her ass with a thud. Kimiko meanwhile almost lost her balance stagger back into the ropes before catching herself. Kimiko was not about to let up though, far from it, she was going to cause some damage of her own in this match! Kimiko then charged towards her dazed and seated opponent aiming to drive her knee into the woman's chin with one brutal and fast strike that would likely floor Alizeh if it connected. If successful Kimiko would sit on her opponent chest and hook the woman's leg going for the first pin attempt of the match and her career.

Kicked hard by her opponent and even with a guard up Alizeh was knocked back onto her but. Stunned a bit by it and left unable to do anything as Kimiko ran the ropes and rebounded back towards her, bringing her leg up as she did so to drive a knee strike right into Alizeh's face, taking her from a seated position right onto her back! Something that left her unable to do anything as Kimiko sat on her chest, grabbing her leg and securing a pinfall position on Alizeh!

"ONE!"

"TWO!!"

Shockingly the count went to two, but just after that two count was made Alizeh would twist her hips, bringing her leg forward to kick out of Kimiko's early pin attempt. If successful Alizeh would have twisted herself to her side as she did so to dislodge Kimiko from her chest and get on her side to hopefully keep her from immediately following up on her.

Kimiko raised her arm in the air, counting along with the ref on her and as she pinned Alizeh. Kimiko was so excited as the count reached two before she was forced off of the Green haired woman when she kicked out. Kimiko quickly rolled and got up to her knees looking visibly disappointed. "So close" Kimiko said to herself as she pushed up to her feet and reapproached Alizeh. Kimiko would then reach down attempting to pull the woman up by her hair and arm. If successful the young lioness would then send Alizeh to the corner with an Irish whip.

"It's okay Kimiko!!! Don't lose focus!!!" Akari shouted from the sidelines, clapping her hands together, getting the crowd in sync with her established rhythm as a wave of support came rolling in for the debuting Kimiko, her mentor gathering people together to cheer her on as they were impressed with her work thus far. Going toe-to-toe with a woman like Alizeh was no easy feat...be it physical or mental, there were PLENTY of disadvantages working against Kimiko, and she managed to fight through most of it so far with clarity and ease, showcasing she was no run-of-the-mill talent. "You got real close, don't let up! Space your strikes out...she'll be looking for them now!" Akari said, trying to toss any tips she could toward her mentee...the problem was that Alizeh was also in earshot. Akari had to shout just to be heard over this loud audience, so she tried to sneak in whatever she could without pissing off the referee or cluing Alizeh in.

Alizeh had been well and truly rocked by Kimiko's strikes and as a result the girl had managed to get the first pinfall attempt early on. Not that Alizeh would roll over that easily for her and thus she kicked out with plenty of force, but not quite as fast as one would expect. Still it left Kimiko the opportunity to haul Alizh up against her will and send her running towards the corner! Turning and hitting it back first Alizeh would let out a soft hiss as she locked in on Kimiko, preparing herself for whatever the girl may try and do.

Kimiko turned her attention to her friend and mentor outside of the ring cheering her on giving her a smile as she glanced at part of the crowd cheering her on and blushed slightly, it was a new feeling for Kimiko but it felt great. Kimiko would listen to Akari's advice and give her mentor a nod before looking at Alizeh charging forward Kimiko had a plan in her head instead of going for out right strike she would go with something much more athletic and acrobatic.

As Kimiko got close she would attempt to jump up slamming her knee's into her opponent's chest. If successful Kimiko would latch herself onto Alizeh before throwing her weight back to throw Alizeh over and out of the corner with an impressive monkey flip!

Alizeh started to take notice of Akari at ringside actively offering advice and strategies mid match. 'That's not gonna be good.' Alizeh thought to herself but in doing so had distracted herself for a split second too long, looking up to notice Kimiko taking to the air and landing knees first against Alizeh's chest! "Ugh!" Alizeh groaned out in pain before being pulled forward and then pushed up, getting flung through the air with a monkey flip throw! "Ngh!" Alizeh groaned out as she hit the mat back first and recoiled up!

Kimiko smiled as Alizeh seemed distracted by her mentors advice though it wasn't even meant towards her so when Alizeh turned her attention back to Kimiko the woman was met with the sight of Kimiko diving towards her knee's first into her chest! Taking a moment to show off for the crowd Kimiko latched onto Alizeh with one arm while she used her free hand to briefly point upwards wanting to get the crowd behind her a bit and some of them did getting a decent pop from the crowd as she quickly latched both her hands onto Alizeh before throwing her weight back and sending her out of the corner with a monkey flip!

Kimiko wasn't done with her opponent just yet though instead remaining latched onto Alizeh attempting to roll through and pull her opponent to her feet before grabbing the waist band of her attire in order to hit her with a follow up snap suplex looking to establish control of the match before going for her finisher and securing the first fall.

Thrown for a loop after paying the cost of getting distracted Alizeh would find herself crashing on the mat after a monkey flip, leaving her relatively stunned from the impact. Which meant that she'd be totally ignorant of Kimiko having rolled through along with her to immediately pull Alizeh up along with her. "Ngh." Grunting a bit as she was lifted up Alizeh would feel her waistband grabbed before she was lifted up and taken through the air, sent crashing down to the mat with a snap suplex! "GAH!" Alizeh cried out in pain, shooting up a seated position, arching and holding her back in pain!
