While Shizuka may have been tossed about the entirety of the event thus far, she had been working out where her opponent had been overmatching her: he was bigger than her, clearly had more experience at this, and was just overall better.
But Shizuka had panache. She had creativity!
Figuring out just the right way to flop about when the Mantis went in for his final through, Shizuka finally managed to at least save some sense of her dignity by not allowing Hiroto a total sweep!
