I didn't really notice Seki against NEC but she looks sharp in these OK matches --also nice and scrappy in the defense department. I love that. Seki's making a superstar out of Ogawa, although Ogawa also did well in that OP-py role in VCup with Shirai. She's going next level right in front of our eyes
I don't remember if this is a new thing for her but in Toray v Himeji she defended zone 1 (on the right) instead of zone 5 after serving and left zone 5 to Noro (OH, temporarily OP because of Kurogo). I haven't watched Toray's other matches yet.
