Amikura and Sakurai along with SAKI and Hikari Shimizu have continued the Color&#8217;s name as an independent group that run their own events.<\/p>\n<p>Sakurai debuted in 2018 for Actwres and since leaving the group has appeared in Ice Ribbon, WAVE, Gatoh Move, and other promotions. Amikura also debuted in 2018 and is seen as a major prospect on the Joshi scene.<\/p>\n<h3>Momoka Hanazono Teaming with Waka<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"tl\" dir=\"ltr\">May 13 New Blood 2<br \/>\u25c6 Tag Match<br \/>MIRAI &amp; Ami Sourei<br \/>vs<br \/>Momoka Hanazono &amp; Waka Tsukiyama <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Pr5yUyS8Ib\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/Pr5yUyS8Ib<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; We Are Stardom (@we_are_stardom) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/we_are_stardom\/status\/1516724282218655748?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">April 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Stardom enters the HanaZone as Momoka Hanazono makes her debut for the company.
