Multiple members of the faction were entered into the JET RISE GP 2018. None of the three KAGUYA-Gun participants, JUNKO, KAGUYA or Kyoko Watanabe were able to make the finals. At RISE GP 2018 Finals, the KAGUYA-Gun trio of Hotaru, Kagura and JUNKO failed at capturing the JET Trios Championship.

Post-RISE Grand Prix the faction entered a feud with the JET Seki-gun or better known as Team JET. KAGUYA feuded against then-JET World Champion Nina Sanada while JUNKO was set to lead KAGUYA-Gun against Mizuki Nakata and Team JET. Meanwhile, Stela Delgato and Kyoko Watanabe would enter a mini-feud with Tomoyo Hirate and Miracle Masami.
