Released members

For failing to qualify into the final in the previous season, the U-NEXT Pirates were required to release at least one team member. Both Koushin Asakura and Nobuhiro Ishibashi were released. For KADOKAWA Sakura Knights, the status for Makoto Sawazaki is still in question due to his recent cancer treatment, which kept him out of the team final. A decision will be made on June 30.
