Early life

[edit]

Harajuku has a swimming background, although not achieving any major performances or doing it full-time. She first attended a professional wrestling event at the Thailand Japan Expo in 2017, where she saw Daimaou Kosaka performing on one of the Michinoku Pro Wrestling shows, moment in which she was captivated by the action and decided to become a professional wrestler herself.[4]

During her time in the promotion, she competed in various signature events.

At CyberFight Festival 2021, an event promoted by TJPW, DDT and Noah on June 6, 2021, Harajuku teamed up with Nao Kakuta, Raku, Mahiro Kiryu and Kaya Toribami in a losing effort against BeeStar (Mirai Maiumi and Suzume), Haruna Neko, Moka Miyamoto and Arisu Endo.[16] One year later at CyberFight Festival 2022, she teamed up with Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino, Yuuri and Haruna Neko in a losing effort against Nao Kakuta, Mahiro Kiryu, Moka Miyamoto, Arisu Endo and Kaya Toribami.[17]
