Sharing Thoughts on Contract Renewals
Recently, discussions around the M League’s BEAST X have been heating up. There are various opinions on whether the contract renewals for Suzuki Daisuke and Nakata Kana are reasonable. I’ve also taken some time to think about this matter.
The Appeal of Daisuke
Suzuki Daisuke has gained attention for his dual career in Shogi and
Mahjong, and his playing style in Mahjong is truly captivating. Just the other day, while watching the M League with friends, I couldn’t help but exclaim “Wow!” at his moves. Especially that moment when he achieved a Yakuman; the excitement was palpable even through the screen. It’s no surprise that he has the most appearances and points in his team.
The Significance of Kana
On the other hand, there are mixed opinions about Nakata Kana. While her performance may not be stellar, I believe her idol-like presence brings a fresh breeze to the Mahjong scene. When I first saw her, I was taken aback, thinking, “Wait, a cute girl plays Mahjong!?” It’s undeniable that her presence has sparked interest in Mahjong among many people, which is why I feel the contract renewal makes sense.
The Future of Sarukawa and Sugawara
Regarding Sarukawa, it’s unfortunate that the results haven’t been favorable, but he surely has his fans. It’s a good system that he still has a chance to make a comeback through auditions. I hope Sugawara also gets another opportunity. Her unique playing style makes me eager to see more of her.
Conclusion
The M League is not just a Mahjong tournament; it has a strong element of entertainment. It serves as a platform for showcasing the individuality and charm of each player, allowing more people to enjoy Mahjong. Therefore, I believe it is reasonable to consider various elements beyond just Mahjong skills. What do you all think? If you have any memorable matches or player stories, please share them in the comments! I’d love to hear more of your opinions.
