Japanese rugby is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen the last years. Respect from France

[@芝井幸太]

Happy to hear that! Gonna go to France in 2023 for the RWC from Japan😎🇯🇵

[@B4rberblacksheep]

It really is so much fun to watch and is very different to a lot of the styles that exist already. I can't wait to see more of them on the international stage

[@Rugby-union-and-sports]

They have to play that way to have any chance because they're physically smaller so keeping it in the forwards wouldn't work for them.

[@たろ眼鏡]

Great movie. Lots of people think Japan suddenly became strong and won over South Africa but this shows their gradual progress to the win

もちろん、日本ラグビーチームはいつも運動して、練習して、頑張っていただから

[@カットマス-u1b]

個人的には今大会で1番好きな試合は準々決勝の南アフリカ戦、2015年大会の時とは違いお互いが戦略を練ったり対策をしたりして全力でぶつかり合った試合だった。 日本は負けたけどティア1の中でも最強の南アフリカが全力で潰しに来てるのに26点しか取られてないうえに前半なんてほぼ互角の勝負をしていた、この試合にすごく今後の日本への可能性を感じた。

From New Zealand, Japanese rugby is awesome to watch.

[@dwainebotha3425]

As a Springboks supporter, I was wrecked and shocked to the core by what happened in Brighton, but truth be told, that game made me fell in love with the running Japanese style of play and the 2019 RWC was testament to the amazing work Eddie Jones did with the team and the systems instilled at the JPRU structures (taking nothing away from Jamie Joseph). Upward and onward Japanese rugby!

[@tanakashiro4685]

Thanks Dwaine. Many japanese also respect Sringboks again. It was so strong in 2019.

[@jimfonzie2887]

I love the passes, i love this team. Wish a good future to japanese rugby. Regards from France.

Well done Japan hope ur rugby keeps growing. Congrats from Buenos Aires ARG

[@tiocfaidharla3200]

Japanese rugby supporters the nicest people in the world

[@GraniteSoundtrack]

Great video! I've been living in Japan for 16 and the rugby team was the first link I've had with the nation and sport. Won me over to rugby and gave me a more hopeful outlook on what my kids may experience seeing a team of ethnic Japanese, mixed race Japanese (like my kids) and immigrants working together to shock the old guard. がんばれ日本！

Japan were an absolute pleasure to watch at Rugby World Cup 2019, kind regards from Wales

I am Japanese but a try from the South Africa mall was incredible try. That’s one of the decisive moment in that game for me. However, the brave blossom made us Japanese proud. Well done!! And thank you !

Japanese Rugby has always been exciting to watch even long before introducing some international players to their team. Japan is ranked No 9 now and would love to see them move higher up.

[@oliviaunderwood]

Fantastic video, absolutely superb editing, goes without saying. Rugby now is more popular in Japan than ever.

[@johncage3969]

This is Amazing! Best rugby video on KZbin by far.

I was at JPN V IRE and it was 1 of the best and loudest matches I have ever had the privilege of attending still gives me goosebumps when I watch the footage again!!! Awesome video brought back lots of amazing memories of the month I spent there enjoying what will go down as the best RWC's ever!!!!

[@Timoteih]

I can't wait to see them play here in France in 2023, I'll make sure to get tickets for all their matches!

What a incredible movie you made. Thx for recalling memory of beauty last year.

[@gregorygrant5347]

Terrific film! Hopefully Japan will join the rugby championship soon.

[@karlosdeevs]

i don't even know what was in Sanzar's minds not to, i-mean they'd have been south africa's ideal replacements since they couldn't come. And then if they felt like it South Africa could've joined the Autumn Nations or 2021's six nations along with USA Eagles..

[@hughmasson2200]

Excellent movie. Love watching Japan play. Pretty much every try is a masterpiece.

[@ほいこうろう-h6l]

ラグビーの前へ前へをみてると美しすぎて涙が出る

[@renenoir]

日本のいいところは最初から強豪国だったのではなく、オールブラックスに17－145の屈辱的な大敗を喫して、世界から弱小国と嘲笑されたところから始まったこと。 現在発展途上のチームにも、頑張ればティア1の強豪国を打ち破ることができるという、ティア2の国に希望を与えてくれるモデルになれたこと。

[@Thewouf]

The entire video is fantastically edited, but the use of Grandbrothers' Bloodflow at the beginning and during the Scotland match is particularly inspired

[@ThabaniTBowseHadebe0909]

Best ruugby world cup hosts in the history of rugby!! big hearts they have such passion! #loverugby - Springboks forever

[@HugoBrown]

It's always great watching a Japanese Rugby game, just the passion from the players and the fan;s make it a must watch for any rugby fan

[@Samizouza]

A good example of what happens when 2nd tier teams have regular hitouts with tier 1 nations.

[@EuropaSkyline]

Say that to Italy

[@karlosdeevs]

@@EuropaSkyline but we haven't said it to Georgia, b-cuz nobody knows yet if they can..

[@EuropaSkyline]

@@karlosdeevs Agreed, i want a play off match between the last of 6 Nation and the first of Tournament B

[@Samizouza]

@@EuropaSkyline Unfortunately the six nations won't do it for some reason. Italy is pretty much stuck between a rock and a very hard place, unless they somehow end up like France who had plenty of years to get to where they are now when they joined the "home nations." But the ANC should show how Georgia has grown despite a disappointing outing against Scotland in a warm-up. No surprise if Italy finishes at the bottom of the pool.

[@brandenemmanuelwoodham6114]

No it’s when those tier 2 nations play running rugby against those tier 1 nations, not kick a penalty when they’re 40 points behind or something , that’s what’s Japan the team they are turning into

[@RDirtyPew]

Such a beautiful display of resilience and skill. Truly inspirational. Brought tears to my eyes, cheers!

[@moodymakhlof]

The team has done more than great work and so have the generations in the past, i’m really proud of what you have done, and you’re as a role model for us in Libya. Honestly, i don’t like the end of the video, it looks like it’s the end (loosing), it’s not, definitely it’s another step forward for your rugby career. keep going guys we following your steps, please don’t give up.

[@noriyukitakano2366]

Thank you for supportive comment for Japan Rugby. I understand what you say, but the ending seems to quite fit to sense of many Japanese because we are quite sentimentalists, I admit. Saying that, let us review Japan's games from early years in this movie. Even in complete defeats, those players were always playing or fighting at their best. Maybe that's the Brave Blossoms are about. By the way, do you know Honda motor company has a Rugby team in The Top League Japan? Soichiro Honda, the company founder, left a saying like "behind one success there are ninety-nine failures." I agree with you, nothing is over, after loosing a game, too.

[@chatrymarie7232]

@@noriyukitakano2366 That's why the right world for the Brave Blossoms, as for Honda, as for whole Japan is EPIC ! No matter starting an outsider, work even harder and harder, with constant discipline and intelligence, never give up... then win ! An example for us all. Love from France.

[@poomjainp2656]

I love Japanese rugby and Football, because of their respect for other teams and always try their best, even if they know that they are going to lose.

The rise of the blossoms is truly one of the greatest rugby stories ever told…………..built it up from virtually nothing to what it is today is testament to the Japanese and their love for rugby - may they continue to shock the rugby world……..the day they beat the All Blacks is most likely the most significant scalp of all to them - if the Pumas and the Irish can get a dub beating the ABS then so can Japan - no international team will ever sleep on them again - the Phoenix has risen 💯❤️ love from All Black diehard………respect 🏉🇯🇵

[@thebeat2370]

One thing I love about Japan is DISCIPLINE. And they have this unique way of treating one another with respect that I really can't find in any other place. That's why they are so dangerous in the grounds, especially during one of their set plays. They truly deserved to be one of the best❤
