Shibuya ABEMAS Director Yasutaka Tsukamoto
We entered this season with the goal of winning consecutive
championships, but we were very disappointed to lose in the
semi-finals in 5th place.
The players fought hard until the end, but the journey to consecutive victories has come to an end.
The role of leading the Shibuya ABEMAS team as the new manager was a big responsibility for me.
I am acutely aware of my loss in my first semi-final series, not making it to the finals, and my own lack of ability and issues. In response to this result,
Building on this year’s results as a team,
We will continue to work towards further growth and success for the next season. I am determined to take on the challenge once again.
Thank you to all the fans for your continued support over the long season. We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to all the sponsors and everyone involved who support the team.
We will fulfill our revenge next season.
Please continue to give us your support.

KONAMI Mahjong Fighting Club Hisato Sasaki
This season’s KONAMI Mahjong Fight Club was unable to advance to the finals, and ended the season in 6th place. My honest feelings right now are that I wanted to hit more and that I wanted the fans to watch us play until the end. This season in particular has been a difficult and painful season for me personally. Despite this, there were some good news, such as Date winning the title of 4th place evasion rate and Takamiya finishing second, but the number of top players as a team was too small. This will be the biggest challenge, as Takizawa recalls that there were several games he missed. I would like to practice hard during the off-season and enter the next season in perfect condition. Thank you for your encouragement.
