OK BREAK 2025.

Saturday, October 11, 2025. A free-admission floor was set up once again inside the atrium of AEON Mall Okayama, 1F Mirai Square. OK BREAK 2025, hosted by the Okayama Breaking Culture Association, drew 38 crews in Breakin' 3vs3 and 32 dancers in B-Girl 1on1 — 146 dancers in all. The day kicked off with opening remarks from the Deputy Mayor of Okayama, and the program ran from prelims to awards in a single space at Mirai Square.

In 3vs3, eight crews each were chosen from blocks A and B. Billed Battle Guests HEROES (m0nm0i / KENT / TSUKKI — Osaka / Gifu) clawed back into the main bracket through a tie-break between the eighth-placers, then ran the table from TOP16 to the final, downing Okayama / Ishikawa's Kicks Okayama bboyz to seal a four-peat (2022 → 2023 → 2024 → 2025). In B-Girl 1on1, defending champion Mirei (Kurashiki) advanced through a TOP8 tie-break only to fall to 7G in the semis, setting up an all-Ishikawa final between YUINA and 7G — and YUINA edged her hometown rival to claim her first crown.

The five-judge panel — NORI (TAKE NOTICE) / JUN1 (BODY CARNIVAL) / SHIE-CHAN (AIR REAL) / KYOHEI2 (NINE STATES B-BOYZ) / KOSSY (FNC) — oversaw scoring from prelims through finals. SINSK8, NOV -Roger Groove- and Long Neck handled the decks; Ku-chang and TOKKEY worked the mic. Tie-break battles were scored by all five plus Judgames. Backed by headline sponsor Innosho Forestry alongside JOHNBULL, Kamons and Nishi-Nihon Housing Support, with Okayama Prefecture, Okayama City and the Okayama Urban Sports Association on patronage, the floor stayed packed — shoppers leaned in over the rope, and the upper floors of the mall watched down through the atrium. Breaking, brought right into the city's everyday foot traffic.

The day's archives live in three places: Judgames for the competition data, the shared album with 301 photos, and the YouTube playlist with 23 battle clips.
