Tokai University was prevented from winning seven consecutive victories in the traditional seven-person team competition without weight discrimination. He was avenged by Kokushikan University and allowed his nemesis to win the seventh victory for the first time in 16 years.

The absolute champion challenged with a young lineup. Kaito Amano, a second-year student in the 81-kg class, who is expected to participate in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics (Olympics), and Michihiro Arai, a first-year student in the 100-kg class, were both tied.

In the next match, 191 cm, 120 kg Kazushi Morita (3rd year) is a big miscalculation that loses by one match with his opponent, 168 cm, 73 kg Miu Odagiri (3rd year). Manager Josui accepted the result, saying, “I was defeated by Kokushikan’s tenacity. It was a complete defeat.”

Since taking office in 2008, he has won 13 times. Seven consecutive wins, victory, and V7 again were shattered, but six of the seven finalists were under the third grade. The manager said, “There is no mysterious loss.
