This year Japan defense was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. Kojima was incredible

But don't forget fukudome! She's also fantastic

The crazy thing is that their other libero, Fukudome, is also probably top 5. Imagine being one of the best liberos in the entire world, and you're the back up, because Kojima is even better.

Japanese young men and women make volleyball very entertaining, making it a must-watch sport every time there is a game.

Always nice to see the libero get some love. Usually the attention is on the spike monsters, but the libero is *so* important for the team, saving and setting up many points ... all the more so for a team that is as defense-oriented as Japan is.

Incredible. I love volleyball because of her power.

For me she has been the best libero since her debut, the only reason shes not awarded is bc of the unfair award system where only the podium finished team is awarded

Exactly! 👍 This "quota" reward system is ridiculous and must go! This year, Iwasaki had much better perfomance and stats, comparing to Orro, but Orro was given "Best Setter", because 2nd place only gets 2 rewards per quota, and it was already given to Koga and Kojima. Also, not including players, who are simply amazing, but didn't get to the Finals, is against the spirit of sportsmanship. You can have the team of solid, but not special, players and get to finals and then they will "force" the reward on someone, because of quota, and you can have a player that carries the team and does miracles all through the VNL season and they get nothing

This reward system really is unfair, Brazil finished the first phase unbeaten and Carol was the best blocker on the VNL by far. At least she deserved to be one of the best middle blockers.

Thank your for making this amazing libero. She's phenomenal. Flexible, accurate and fast.
To believe I saw her in person is less than like 20 feet from me is crazy

Отметил её способноти ещё на далёкой Универсиаде 2013 года. Тогда ещё удивился и одновременно - нет, тому что она за Команду Университета играет. И не заиграна за профессиональную де факто команду v league. Помню года три назад некоторые нюансы в лиге принимали когда систему трёх дивизионов вводили то как оформлены спортсмены.

This is a genuine question. Do they wear chest pads for protection? Because when they dive it looks so painful 😩
@chiaki12944 ай бұрын
hi!! to answer your question, no they don’t! diving is painful if you don’t know how to execute it or do it properly, and that can be achieved by experience in playing and in practice.
