Watanabe and higashino, The most unique mixed combo. Probably the only pair not reliant on both the male’s power and the woman’s defensive skills. Purely just speed, talent, trickery and precision.

[@wattfadad688]

very well said. arisa is just so quick at the net.

[@Aragorn333]

Congratulations to Japan pair. They deserved it for their tremendous improvement.

[@SgtKenzo]

Watched this live and YES!!!!!!! I knew they could do it, history is made for Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino to be the first Japanese Mixed Doubles pair to win the Japan Open! The Thai pair kept them on their toes and played well to come back in the first game. Great Final and Yuta/Arisa are in great form right now!

[@mathilde9402]

WATAGASHI!!! the most exciting pair to watch in the world ! Love from Belgium ❤❤❤

[@glud2292]

The official name is WataGashi😊 It's play on words with "Watagashi", the cotton candy in japanese.

[@vinhat6235]

Chúc mừng Nhật Bản ạ 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵

[@maisuong7146]

Congrat to WataHigas! 🎉🎉🎉

[@ayodeji7651]

Watanabe constantly finding the gaps in the opposite court is just amazing!! Pure talent, dont think any coach can teach you that.

[@nguyenviethung6794]

I can do the same easy, it is innate ability but I dont have coach... :D

[@2malachi]

Yes, I remember a doubles opponent at a club I used to visit saying to me 'Gary, I have realised why you're so difficult to play against, it's because you always hit the shuttle to where no-one is'. I laughed and replied 'well, there's no point hitting it directly to the opposing players'. So, I appreciate Watanabe's style, the little angles and pushes into gaps, because it's a fun way to play, much more so than smash smash smash all the time. And it wasn't coached to me, I just developed that style through playing.

[@isaacchen1893]

@@nguyenviethung6794 yes of course, see, if i had a coach i would be world number one in mens singles, doubles, and mixed because of my innate ability. unfortunately i dont, so i cant.

[@randz4607]

​@@nguyenviethung6794 are you competing internationally with that innate ability of yours? Haha you can find gaps but how is your footwork. How many medals? Haha quiet? I thought so.

[@nguyenviethung6794]

@@randz4607 If you say that, I know your brain doesn't have that ability so you feel jealous....

[@chanthalouk6359]

Two of my favorite teams! Congratulations to Watanabe/Higashino🎉👏

[@nguyencongdung25392]

both pairs were playing so well, always love to watch their matches. Taerattanachai has a strong defense skill against flexible attack of Watanabe & Higashino. Finally, congratulation JP MD team.

[@jackysia6174]

What an exciting match! Congratulation to Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino!

[@superyt4ever]

This was the most thrilling final, imo.

[@okoan4340]

本当にかっこいいワタガシ！

[@2malachi]

Such a wonderful match, two lovely pairs too. Good commentary as always from Gill and Steen.

[@mr.commander3947]

THIS HOME WIN for watan / higa is remarkable victory at home---japan ---for them,, It poise tons of influence to the entire country---because this is japan open tournament, and it was won by japanese pair,, can not remember the last time any japanese mix players ever won the japan open,, ,must trace long long time ago,,,

[@kch4900]

[@999suj]

If you don't have good footwork and play against yutannabe, you will end up having broken knees and hip😂😂 The Thai girl though 😍

[@chrisang3774]

TO THE COMMENTATORS: PLEASE REFRAIN YOURSELVES FROM TALKING DURING PLAY. YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT MORE ENTERTAINING BUT YOU ARE CAUSING A GREAT DEAL OF DISTRACTION.

[@Aragorn333]

Asking commentators not to talk throughout the play is such an innovative idea. I prefer listening to their commentary. That makes more sense and the match more interesting.

[@eugenejohnson7755]

@@Aragorn333 They can comment between points and say a quick few words during play. Have you not been paying attention or turned off the volume? They always talk about other stuff such as history, etc. which is totally unrelated to the match when players are playing.
