On December 30th, it was announced on a press conference that Noa would be taking time off due to an illness and relinquished the championships. On February 20th, DDT announced that Noa would be taking time off indefinitely. This ultimately lead to her sudden departure from TJPW, and the Up Up Girls group she was in, on May 19, 2024.
