Not sure if you can say it out loud here, but it's definitely true. Chinese fans have much less sense of personal boundaries and respect, I know several CNT players who can't stand them but can't say that out loud, there are probably many more...
even CTTA have official statements by saying it out loud and banning the official groups on social media.
so, why can't we comment about it :)

I think there is just too much selfishness of only thinking of personal gain from these fans and sacrificing morals even when you alienate your "hero" and embarrassed your peers - so much even your fan peers think it is wrong.

Hopefully more education is provided and it need to come from the fan group bosses

Harimoto says he made sure to beat Kallberg in straight games and not 3-2 this time (noting how it's the first time he did it) and will keep doing so in the future, otherwise he can't say with confidence that he will win in the next Olympics... LOL Also, he noted how Shinozuka has been in good form since the All-Japan Championships 2025.

Shinozuka also says his body was moving really well after 3-2 LSS.

Now Harimoto says the same thing about WCQ as well, confirmed by TV Tokyo.

(Not as fast as Matsushima (Sora)
If you can get to 5 or 6 shots in a rally, you'll win

Cool story Hari bro
2-11 tells a different story unfortunately.

Harimoto says he prepared and played better than at WTT F Fukuoka 2024 and kept fighting until the middle of every game. Still far from winning and a long way to go, but he played a little better than in Fukuoka and so is very satisfied with his performance as he secured his seeding. Same for World Cup and WTTC, his primary goal is to secure his seeding and get a medal. Winning is difficult, but taking 2 or 3 games will be next and if he manages, he will win.

He spent the rest of the video on Tasei's last international tournament as the head coach and then Kishikawa as the successor.
