In addition to China, the C stands for Curve. I spent 20 bucks for this little piece of expensive yet useless information. May as well get some use out of it.

Just China Smash 2024 alone brought in CN¥57 million (~US$7.8 million) in ticket revenue and the event attracted funding of CN¥25 million (~US$3.4 million). For China Smash 2025, it's said funding could reach over CN¥100 million (~US$13.6 million). Chinese fangirls: Stop biting the hand that...

The most noticeable improvement for Kuai Man is that she has shed some weight.

I'd give them the benefit of the doubt for filing the annual return late. They admitted in early 2024 that FY 2023 was a challenging year. FWIW, WTT has applied for an "Extension of Time for AGM/Annual Return" (up to 60 days) in 2022, 2023 and 2024. ITTF Finance Forum 2024...

Like I wrote, most of them played table tennis. It was an era before the social media boom. The fansite was hosted by 全乒乓/ALLTT.COM, which was a table tennis forum. How many people who don't play table tennis visit TTD? 全乒乓 | 全情·全力·全速- 楠忘王楠-帖子列表...

Harimoto needs to prepare extra pairs of underwear from now on. Mizutani: Freeballing is the way to go.

WTT performance appraisal 2021- Chinese fandom cultured 2024- French fandom cultured 2025- Japanese fandom cultured

Gotta tip my hat to Hirano for going 1 on 3 at WTT CT Zagreb 2023 (3-1 LWS then 3-1 KM then 4-3 SYS), where Harimoto 1-3 KM (and then Ojio H. 2-3 KM) then Kihara 2-3 LWS then Hayata 0-3 SYS. OTOH, it's difficult to imagine the only CNT player Ito beat in the last cycle happens to be KM at WTT...

Tieba users call him 贅空/son-in-law Sora (but lives with the Harimoto family) for good reason... Last but not least, he still has 8 years to get it right! ;)

To me the slo-mo is inconclusive (if only we had the bird's-eye view from right above or even from right behind). Even if the ball did not hit the shirt, it would still not be an easy put-away shot because Aruna's "Matrix" stroke put a ton of spin on the ball.

No one is saying he's a failure, just like I didn't write off Hayata a few years back. But unlike Hayata, Matsushima has not shown enough interest/motivation in MD and XD that are actually keeping him relevant. If he doesn't realize the significance of that now, why would anyone be so...

And winning a selection trial for once is not development? He has to compete against his teammates regardless of age. Harimoto, Uda and Togami all went through that. Continuing from my previous post about Ishikawa and Hirano, Hayata lost to Ito in the final selection trial for WTTC 2018, lost...

Yeah, WYC 2024 was pretty bad except for Kawakami who lost 3-4 against Tang Yiren in U15 BS QF and won both his matches against TPE in U15 BT QF. The desirable thing about him is that he is a righty.

He said that in an interview after defending his national title. 全日本卓球選手権/Zennihon Takkyu Senshuken/All-Japan TTC = 日本一/Japan's no 1, the terms are synonymous and that's how it's reported in the news. That's why their players treat it very seriously (way too seriously as Miyazaki has said it...

Pretty much it. And they are all younger.

Same here. He showed a lot of potential and he did translate it into domestic and continental results in MS, and international results in MD. Looking back, his initial trajectory bears a resemblance to that of Hayata.

JTTA's selection system doesn't care about that. Matsudaira Kenji will turn 36 this April and he's going to WTTC 2025. Ishikawa was 27+1 and Hirano 20+1 for Tokyo 2020+1, which was the easier edition compared to Paris 2024.
