At Stardom’s New Blood 4 event JUST TAP OUT’s Tomoka Inaba joined forces with Syuri, Ami Sorei, and MIRAI of God’s Eye. Inaba becomes the group’s fifth official member as Konami is considered an honorary member despite her absence.

Earlier in the show, Inaba wrestled Queen’s Quest member Hina and defeated the young QQ member. Initially, fans didn’t expect to see her again during the show but she reappeared following Ami Sorei and MIRAI’s match with Starlight Kid and Haruka Umesaki. It was then that she requested to join the group. All three members said yes and welcomed their newest member.
Tomoka Inaba is quite the excellent fit for God’s Eye given her stylistic similarities to Syuri and Konami. The TAKA Michinoku trainee is an adept grappler who also boasts some of the best kicks in all of Joshi wrestling. Inaba getting to work with and learn under Syuri will no doubt help elevate her game to a new level, but she also offers God’s Eye something they haven’t had yet, a pin eater. Inaba is still young and growing which means they don’t need to protect her as much as the other members.
Inaba is also unlikely to be a full-time member as she is still the Queen of JTO Champion in her home promotion, she defeated Aoi to become the inaugural title holder recently, and will have to finish up her commitments there before possibly making a full-time move.
