"Supremely underrated performer. Was part of a legendary tag team with Kyoko, but I would highly encourage her singles work in the late 90s-early 00s as she was consistently a high level performer. Excellent at working the breakneck style people associate with Joshi. But knew how to sell, work the mat and would hit spinning backfists every bit as violent as Aja Kong. There is no chance I put together a top 100 without Takako Inoue. I still need to fill in gaps for 2003-Present. But based on the strength of 1993-2003 she's a no brainer."

I really liked Takako's narrative during the inter-promotional era. It was fun to watch her growth during that period. Some of her stuff with Kyoko is good as well, but I didn't see much value in her freelance work and she strikes me as more of a tag wrestler than an all-round great.
