My initial reaction was HM because there was no build or stakes to the match. But after thinking about it more, this was a perfect showcase of everyone (save maybe Rin but I'm okay with that since she didn't do much to impress me).

This match flowed amazingly from crisp, innovative spots to comedy to intense strike battle. Really awesome match. Nth-ing the MOTYC nod.

them keeping the kayfabe from their last lego deathmatch where they called it a "kids' blocks match" or something to avoid copyright issues with Lego and MAO brought out cinderblocks and justified it by saying those were the blocks he played with as a kid was really good too.

Another nice little touch was when they were setting up the ring with all the kids' toys they used the BJW deathmatch theme that they use when setting up deathmatches

Shunma Katsumata vs MAO - Kids' Room Deathmatch
- Sauna Club explodes! I love these two crazy fucks, and I love that Shunma acts like such a brat when he's the oldest member. A couple of times I found myself watching in amazement, just hoping neither guy got really badly hurt by the stupid poo poo they were doing (they were lucky neither got impaled by either the wooden block table exploding or the plastic storage box fragments). Shunma took a couple of headshots that were hopefully way louder than they were hard, but otherwise I enjoyed everything they did in this match.

https://twitter.com/RealHero12089/status/1366365262187012099?s=19

This is my current MOTY. Absolute nonstop chaos as some of the absolute best wrestlers in the world face off against each other. You're always guaranteed a good time when Asuka and Arisa Nakajima get in the same ring, but the absolute highlight of this match isn't even a competitor as Yumiko Hotta shows how outside interference should be done, getting a lot of vocal reactions from the crowd in the process. Incredible stuff with a shocking finish (especially considering the post-match)

An extremely good match, Emi startled me just how great she was in the role of the big bully heel. Some great spots like the brutality of the rolling surfboard. An awful lot to like here.

I'll second this, although i'm not as high on it as you are. Suppose it speaks to the quality of wrestling in 2021 that I don't have a thought of putting this in my top five and it's behind Arisa/Nanae vs Iida/Momo in terms of SEAd matches i've seen this year. Obviously Arisa and Asuka are great, but the few things i've seen of her has opened my eyes to how much I slept on Nanae Takahashi last year in the handful of shows I watched. I always just glazed over her as another member of MAX VOLTAGE with Ryo Mizunami being the one that drew my interest, but she's been killing it in the matches posted here this year, especially looking at just how long her career has been.

Nanae didn't wrestle between January 24th and December 23rd last year so dismissing her as another backing dancer isn't so bad

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
Nah she lost her hair in November 2019 in a very good match against Arisa Nakajima then announced that she needed surgery to help with arthritis in her knee or something like that: worked through January 2020 and then was off until the last show of last year.

3rd. This is all sorts of great. Obviously a match with Asuka and Nanae and Makoto and Arisa is going to rule and so it was. Las Fresas de Egoistas are such a great act and team, just total motherfuckers. The absolutely nasty chairshots, the stiff kicks and chops, the moonsault and cross bodies and what's not to love?
