When approached for comments on the new Olympic events,
Ito said she still hasn't decided whether to aim for LA28, that she is still focused on her goal of getting a WTTC WS medal, but hints at wanting to play WD in the Olympics.

【卓球】ロス五輪新種目の「混合団体」。日本は有利だが、卓球人からは怒りの声も多数出ている

Some of the Yahoo Japan users are so strict with Hirano and yet lenient with Hayata over their win rates against top CNT players,
but clearly they have had enough of Ito.

まずはそれまでに中国のトップ5相手になんとか少しでも勝率を上げてほしいね。その前に日本代表をどのように決定するのか決まってないけど、頑張ってほしい。あと、やっぱりコーチは必要だと思うよ。
(First of all, I want them to somehow improve their win rate against the top 5 Chinese players by then. Before that, it has not been decided how to decide the Japanese representatives, but I want them to do their best. Also, I think coaches are a must after all)

中国トップに勝率上げるってか、この４年以上まるで勝ててないからね。これはもう何か根本的な問題があるんだろうと思います。
(I mean, we can't win against China's top team for over 4 years, so I think there must be some fundamental problems.)

早熟の天才伊藤さんの時代は、残念ながら終わっています。彼女のピークは、混合ダブルスで金を取る１年前ですね。金は水谷さんの影響度合いが大きかったと考察します。
いずれにしても、オリンピックチャンピオンですので、これからの目標もこの目標設定でやらなければなりませんが、ピークは過ぎていますので、本人にも卓球協会も更に若手育成にもマイナス面しか生まれて来ないと、粗断定できますのでトップクラスで試合する事を辞めて頂いて、一度休み、視野を広げてから若手指導に展開して欲しいと考察します。
選手として辞め時の価値観は色々ありますが、伊藤さんにはオリンピックチャンピオンとして、潔く良く引いて欲しいと願います。
(
Unfortunately, Ito's era as a precocious prodigy is over. She peaked a year before she won gold in mixed doubles. I believe Mizutani's influence was a major factor in her gold medal.
In any case, she is an Olympic champion and will have to set these goals from now on, but she is past her peak and we can roughly conclude that this will only have negative effects on her, the Table Tennis Association, and the development of younger players. Therefore, I believe she should retire from top-class competition, take a break, broaden her horizons, and then develop into coaching younger players.
There are various values when retiring as a player, but as an Olympic champion, I hope that Ito will quit gracefully)

伊藤・平野選手は中国から研究しつくされているので中国を撃破するのは難しいと思います。お二人が新しいプレースタイに進化すれば対抗できるかもしれませんが、特に伊藤選手はプレースタイルが全く変わらないので中国との差は開いていると思います。若くて才能のある選手がたくさんいるのに、いつまでも平野・伊藤選手に頼っていては若くて才能がある選手が伸びず、数年後、中国との差は広がってしまうと思います。
(I think it will be difficult to beat China because Ito and Hirano have been thoroughly studied by China. If the two of them evolve into new playing styles, they may be able to compete, but Ito's playing style in particular has not changed at all, so I think the gap between them and China will widen. There are many young and talented players, but if we continue to rely on Hirano and Ito, the young and talented players will not develop, and in a few years, the gap between us and China will widen.)

伊藤は、前回のオリンピックの団体戦について、協会が発表する前に、3人目の推薦枠を拒否している。
理由は、シングルに出場出来ないため、補欠要員となり、シングル二人のサポートは嫌だからと。
プライドとわがままが、邪魔したのでしょう。
シングル二人は、張本、早田、大藤から選ばれるでしょう。
伊藤に聞くだけ無駄なのに。
マスコミの嫌みか。
(
Before the association announced the lineup for the team event at the previous Olympics, Ito refused to be recommended for the 3rd spot.
The reason was that she would be unable to compete in the singles and would have to be a reserve, and she didn't want to support the two singles players.
Pride and selfishness probably got in the way.
The two singles players would be chosen from Harimoto, Hayata and Odo.
There's no point in asking Ito.
Is it just the media trying to be mean?)

卓球競技の普及ということを考えた時に必ずしもマイナスとは限らない。
男女それぞれの団体戦が見たいという点には完全同意だが、男子偏重の国が多いことがこの混合団体の導入で変わる可能性、女子の強化へ踏み切る可能性があるということは卓球競技にとってはプラス。
なお、日本有利という論調は意味不明。なぜなら、団体のメダルが確実であろう女子団体が消えるのだから、女子ダブルスでもメダルが期待できるとしても一発勝負の個人トーナメントよりも3点先取の団体戦の方が確実性があり、そして混合団体も確実とは言えないのだから決して有利にはなっていない。
男子もメダル圏内ではあるが、同時にメダル決定レベルの戦いになると組み合わせやその時の調子によって全敗してもおかしくはない。つまり、男子ばかり強い国と当たった時に男子全敗で敗北する可能性もあり混合団体は女子団体ほど確実なメダルとは言えない。
(
It's not necessarily a negative thing when you think about the spread of table tennis.
I completely agree that we want to see team events for both men and women, but the fact that there are many countries that are biased towards men may change with the introduction of this mixed team, and there is a possibility that they may take steps to strengthen the women's team, which is a positive for table tennis.
The notion that Japan has an advantage is incomprehensible. Because the women's team, which would be sure to win a medal, will disappear, even if there is hope for a medal in women's doubles, a first-to-3-point team event is more certain than a one-shot individual event, and the mixed team is not sure either, so it is by no means an advantage.
The men's team is also in the medal zone, but at the same time, if it's a battle at the medal deciding level, it's not strange that they will lose all their matches depending on the pairing and their condition at the time. In other words, if they face a country with only strong men's teams, there is a possibility that the men will lose all their matches, and the mixed team is not as sure of a medal as the women's team.)
