BEAST X, operated by the nationwide free broadcast station BS10, is pleased to announce that following the conclusion of the professional mahjong league "M.League 2025-26" on March 27, 2026, the team finished the regular season in 3rd place, securing a spot in the Semifinal series for the first time in its three-year history.

▼ Regular Season Review

This season, BEAST X entered the competition after making the major decision to overhaul its roster. New addition Geki Shimoishi achieved an individual score of 614pt, winning the MVP (Individual Score Award). Captain Rio Tojo, returning to the M.League, brought momentum to the team with her overwhelming consistency. Kana Nakada, fueled by the frustrations of the past two seasons, refined her playstyle to be both delicate and bold, significantly updating her personal best score and awakening as a key point-getter for the team. Daisuke Suzuki, who has led the team since its inception, also made significant strides, particularly in 2026, using last season's setbacks as motivation. Despite facing difficult moments, the team maintained its aggressive style until the very end, allowing them to break through the regular season in this, their third year.

Looking ahead to the Semifinals starting on Monday, April 6, we will continue to fight with all our might alongside our fans, guided by this year's team slogan: "Hunt the Peak."

【Rio Tojo】

I am truly happy to have returned to the Semifinals in my first year back in the M.League. Knowing that we can enter the Semifinals with the significant lead my teammates built gives me peace of mind, and I am truly grateful. Since advancing to the Finals with this lead increases our chances of winning, I want to overcome my own internal battles and fight to accumulate even more points in the Semifinals. I hope our fans feel glad that I joined the team and returned to the M.League, so I will fight until the very end without regrets to contribute as many points as possible to the team.
