Manabe has not produced a single player that can be considered a promising talent on a global scale. Koga is not considered a global talent and if you have to ask then you're not paying attention. Mayu is currently the NT's best bet and all Manabe has done so far is hold her back. Meanwhile on the men's side they keep introducing hotter college phenoms that keep volleyballworld and their youtubers at the edge of their seats.
VBW didn't even announce when the women's roster dropped but they put out an IG story about Santiago and Valdes lol. Yes I am aware that their social media manager is a Filipino it's common knowledge by now but still.
