She's had surgery last April. No info on whether she's fully recovered now.
Surgery for what?
She was running and training vigorously in hisamitsu's recent stories even doing monkey bars with Mandai

sean1 you said saga is going downhill after the toray match... it's really happening mate. you're a clown for that
It was inevitable. Did you even watch them? Clearly they weren't nearly as stable in offense as they thought.

Should be replays. Takes a couple days to get them up
NIFS is likely to play again the next couple days but it might conflict with vleague and I’m still not positive they will show the SF and Final there for free
I saw someone quote Sportsbull who does the paid stream for Haruko
They said something like the Empress Cup always proves that high school players are superior compared to uni players for the women's side anyway. Who are the current notable uni stars in the league? Matsui?

Do you think this is attributed to the lack of interest for Japanese female players in general? Not even volleyballworld is reporting on what's happening with any of the current NT players or any promising players like Matsui. It seems as if barely anyone cares about the female players not even for Koga or 'Ishikawa's Sister'. It's great that there are people who are highly invested in them here but that's hardly the case outside of this forum.
staccato lightning mentioned in the men's NT thread that it might be due to JVA prioritizing the Olympic members of the men's team. Yanagida was also apparently blocked by JVA from playing in Europe.
What you say is true for the most part in that there isn't a current massive international interest for Japanese female players. The lack of a clear ace plays a big part. It's fine for now since they're about to rebuild their image. Once a consistent lineup emerges and they start doing well again they'll eventually attract more attention.
Honestly with Matsui I don't see her blowing up but I see it happening with Momii gaining Miyashita's level of popularity outside of Japan if she eventually succeeds. But I'm probably getting way ahead here.

If anyone wants a look at new SAGA recruit Saki Nakajima, NIFS is playing a QF match at 10:00am JST (about two hours from now) on UNIVAS She's #4
NIFS are the reigning All Japan Uni-champions, and very likely to win again this year
will there be a replay available to watch or only the live one?
-
It does sound rather off. It's like he's appealing more towards the visual aspect than the actual talent.
-
What if she's all of those?
which girl from Okayama?Lol right that's why I'm asking cause there's always that 1 girl in each highschool and v1 team that looks just like her and is the ~promising one
I don't know the name of the Seagurl player but she's the girl in the left here
-
Megumi is reigning Champion, MVP, and Best Scorer ... as a second year student. If she does it again as a Senior that will be almost Kurogo-esque. But it looks like Hachiojijissen and Seitoku will have something to say about it
I was just thinking is that the girl in Okayama or... is it the one from Araki's interview? they all kinda look the same
is it the girl in the upper left?
-
Saga can't even pull a reverse win damn. They were leading in the first 2 sets only to bite the dust. Sakai is a flop he doesn't know what to do with their current roster.
Araki should be an active player.
They're about to go downhill from here.
-
Proof that Saga got lucky they battled weaker teams first. They're nowhere near solid. I don't get why Sakai keeps nagaishimoto as a weapon they don't work well together when all 3 are in the court. It didn't work then, it's not gonna work now.
They're bestfriends. It's like an established trio in Hisamitsu like how Risa-Nana is a thing. They're doing it before 1 or all of them retire. Tbh I wasn't sure if Ishii and Nagaoka were close but apparently they are
-
I thought he was working with the volleystation people? too bad. It's a miracle it lasted that long. I guess the safest bet would be hosting it on vimeo. They take down videos on dailymotion too according to Yanagida's fans.
-
Ok but seriously I'm not convinced Okumura has retired. Inoue and Tashiro would've posted about it.
-
JVA doesn't even post anything on her birthday
Maybe she really did retire
JVA doesn't usually post for retired players anymore. The disrespect omg not even a goodbye ceremony? even V2 players get those and she's an NT member who stood with the team during the Olympics -
If I am not mistaken, she didn't sign anywhere
Is she currently in Turkey?
-
No, and I don't know Haruka Miyashita is a crybaby
But I don't think anyone calls her Saori
-
Also I'm pretty sure Rio has a collab with Victorina for Mizuno that's why she's soft-stanning them but tbf they're trying so hard not to disappoint esp Plak
I'm just glad I don't have to see Yoshioka so often
-
Saori has them below Toyota
Ouch!
You don't call her Rio?
oof but the amount of dislike in that video lmao and the people roasting Kano
-
there ya go ... defense is what you do when you're not spiking. I rest my case
She seems like she is above having to play defense. It's what the commoners do. I've described her as walking around like a British Aristocrat drinking tea with her little pinky finger extended
Her and Imamura don't really do defense. But I think Arisa is still likely to make wide roster
-
Arisa Inoue has that creepy Kana Yoshioka smile. I personally don't mind her but she doesn't seem very likeable
She does lol. Is that why Sakai isn't rooting for her and wants to push Nakagawa instead... but I think Arisa will eventually become Saga's ace. I don't see Nakagawa as ambitious or driven and I have yet to see some growth from her
-
I think Arisa is a very fine attacker, but her defense and her vibes are so bad ... if she makes the NT I quit
I'm confident Manabe agrees with me on this
Wdym like an attitude? I barely feel any presence from her except when she's spiking
