The idol/fighter, former member of Kamen Joshi (masked girls), Nanaka Kawamura, has retired. Her statement:
It is sudden,,
I, Nanaka Kawamura, will retire as a mixed martial artist.
I started practicing martial arts in 2017, made my amateur debut on December 3, and made my professional debut on March 10, 2018.
When I started martial arts, I wanted to be unique.
While there are a lot of idols, I'm just happy to be active.
I chose martial arts because I wanted to try something that no one had ever tried.
Martial arts experience is 0. Rather, I haven't seen many games, and it really started from 0.
I think everyone at Reversal Gym Me, We, who has been indebted from the beginning, was surprised.
I don't know anything too much. It was really tight when I first started, I chose a ridiculous path! It was a day I thought lol
The opponents who win the game are all more experienced than me, and every time I try,
But I want to go to RIZIN! I practiced desperately every day thinking of winning the game with the big dream.
Everyone at the gym also saw me as a player, not as an idol. I was really happy with that. At the beginning of the debut, there were many criticisms.
I'm sorry for martial arts. I'm an idol. Such,,
I thought about my experience in martial arts. I think so. What? I can't be a fighter with half-hearted feelings. It was really tough and I respected the fighters in many situations.
Heaven if you win. Hell if you lose. Of course, the content of the game is important, but the result is everything.
The fighters living in such a severe world are really amazing.
Idol fighter. It was treated as a colored item, and there was a lot of criticism, but it would be nice if you could support me like this.
He was there a lot.
I'm sorry I didn't give you any practice photos or videos recently, and I couldn't tell you anything without a match report.
I'm no longer a martial artist, but I love martial arts. I still watch games and want to go to the gym as a hobby

(I think I'll want to do it as a player again someday lol)
With idols graduating and fighters retiring, Nanaka Kawamura is about to take on new challenges!
Some people may not be interested in Nanaka Kawamura, who is not a fighter, but ...
I'm glad just to remember that I got this kind of stuff in the corner of my head

If you would like to support Nanaka Kawamura in the future, please wait for another announcement

DEEP officials and RIZIN officials who participated in the match Thank you
I enjoyed my martial arts life.
Thank you very much.
Pretty candid.
