Fighting Style:
Tazu isn't a mega powerhouse like her tag partner, Tetsu Tanaka, but she makes up for that disparity of strength with a high motor and impressive athleticism, incorporating running attacks, quick but strong moves, and even top-rope assaults. She isn't uncareful, and does calculate the risks she does, but in times of frustration or desperation, can pull off more dangerous moves and dives that could end up costing her the match. Along with this, she loves to taunt and play up to the crowd, sometimes to her own disadvantage.

Stats:
Strength: 4/5 – Tazu is strong, able to handle women her own weight and below, though she can struggle with women that are heavier than her, even if those women are rare.
Speed 4/5 – Tazu has very solid bursts of speed, and along with being able to cross the ring in impressive speeds, this also goes into her strikes and recoveries
Agility: 3/5 – Tazu is not blazing fast when navigating the ropes, but does so impressively for a woman her size.
Endurance: 5/5 – Tazu has a very strong 'Never Die' attitude, having almost been out of wrestling before and treating every match like a must-win, and it shows in how tenacious she is when getting out of submissions or kicking out at the last moment.
Charisma: 5/5 - Tazu, along with her tag team partner, Tetsu, are both female Ultimate Warriors in a way, huge, face-painted wrestlers that can go crazy and wake-up a crowd, and their charisma/overness is arguably what got them into AFW in the first place.

Wrestling Stats:
Strikes: 4/5 – Tazu can unleash a burst of quick, strong strikes, and doesn't limit herself to just punches or kicks.
Submissions: 3/5 – Tazu is mostly a fan of wear-down submissions, and has a couple in her arsenal, along with some solid technical expertise, but she isn't really a master of it.
Powerhouse: 4/5 – While not the powerhouse that her tag partner is, Tazu can still toss around anyone just a bit smaller or even on par with her.
Aerials: 4/5 – Tazu is limber and athletic, and while it's not the base of her fighting style, it's certainly a weapon she pulls out often.
Counters: 2/5 – Tazu isn't the best at countering, preferring to kick out or break out of stuff, rather than waste energy avoiding it.
