Comment from Koyo Takahashi:
Thank you for this past year!!
I am so happy to have played with Nego-san after several years, and to have been welcomed as the last player to join the team! While I regret not being able to win the championship, I am glad that we were able to achieve good results, including winning the regular season and finishing as runner-up in the playoffs.
I am grateful to Yabu-san and all the team staff for the opportunity to play with this team! Thank you very much!

Comment from Naoto Ikue, President and General Manager:
Koyo, thank you for your wonderful play and impact throughout the season.
Even though you were the latest addition to the team this season, you managed your condition well and showed your true form immediately, which was truly impressive. As the season progressed, your leadership on the court with your innate sense for the game, along with your communication with teammates to inspire and provide a sense of security, made you increasingly reliable. Koyo, thank you so much for coming to Kagawa! We wish you further success in your future endeavors!
