Matsushima Momo: The Rising Star of Professional Mahjong and W-STA Promotion

Matsushima Momo: The Rise of a Professional Mahjong Player

Renowned professional Mahjong player Matsushima Momo has joined W-STA (Ryansuta), a promotional material and tool service by Pack-X Co., Ltd. This exciting partnership marks a new chapter in the evolution of Mahjong promotion.

A Brilliant Mind with a Passion for Competition

Matsushima Momo was born on September 16, 1984, in Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. From a young age, she was surrounded by books, fostering her inquisitive nature. Momo set her sights on Kyoto University’s Law Faculty during her high school years and successfully gained admission. After graduating, she pursued a legal career in law school. However, her desire for a life in the competitive realm led her to reassess her path, prompting her to become a professional Mahjong player.

In 2010, she excelled in the Japan Professional Mahjong Association's professional test (the 9th late session) and achieved first place. Momo’s distinctive playing style is characterized as a “small carnivore from Kyoto University,” showcasing her strategic prowess paired with audacity.

A Multi-Faceted Talent

Beyond her competitive achievements, Matsushima Momo began serving as an official commentator for the M League in September 2018. Her engaging style—often intense yet methodical—has resonated deeply with both players and viewers, earning her substantial support from the Mahjong community.

Outside of Mahjong, Momo is a dedicated fan of the Shiki Theatre Company and enjoys murder mysteries and escape games, highlighting the diverse interests that define her.

Her intellectual capabilities are evident not just in Mahjong but also through her accolades such as winning the quiz show “Attack 25” and achieving a perfect score on “The Time Shock.” Moreover, she actively participates in various quizzes and manages the Capriccio channel on YouTube, further broadening her influence.
