It was fast paced and it was a decent opener.

shoulder throws her then Kak shoulder throws her. Akari goes up and over
her in the corner and dropkicks her. Kak then crossbodies her off the
2nd rope and camel clutches her. Kak ties her up in the ropes and

dropkicks her. Akari then lariats her and Kak STO's her. Akari hits a
suplex and they trade forearms on their knees. Akari kick combos her for
2 then Kak comes back with the fujiwara armbar.
Kak has her bodyscissored and is suplexed over top by her, then Kak taps her out with the armbar.
The
finish was kind of out of nowhere, but I thought it was decent with Kak
working the arm before getting the pin. The two worked well together and
Kak really fits well in Pure-J.

The first 2/3rd's of this were smart, logical wrestling, then they gave it up to trade moves at the end that had nothing to do with the rest of the match.
Overall thoughts: They were on the right path in the main event but went off road and the semi-main tag match was good. I also liked the the other two matches so it was a good Pure-J show.
