Lennart Green's contribution to sleight of hand will be remembered forever

[@ziky3329]

"There will always be an Asian who takes it to the next level." Ryan Hayashi

[@sayksalazar7546]

Goosebumps on Hayashi and Takahashi!..the best

[@paulmayerpiano]

Lol Hayashi is hilarious, and MAJORLY skilled - a world class entertainer.

[@truth_merchant7839]

Sorry to disappoint you but he is demon possessed.

[@zhchee7734]

This guy is so amazing ... I'm surprised he didn't get the golden buzzer

[@itsybitzzy]

In my thoughts, he'll use his skills to actually get the golden buzzer. Damn!!!

[@BOH-28]

Yeah only the pinoy acts deserve the golden buzzer unfortunately

[@he_brew6623]

There is no Golden buzzer left unfortunately.

[@savehubedits7985]

Please read my comment and judges have seen those cards also...but for the trp of channel they shut there mouth

[@petrified2988]

He is world class lol. He was a student of the legendary magician Lennart Green

Petrifi Ed how about he tries going on penn and teller

[@fredplaysbgs5756]

@@ImotekhTrazyn he would easially fool them lol

[@PfropfNo1]

I don’t think he could fool them. If you know a move you can recognize it, no matter how perfect it’s done. And I think Penn and teller know these moves.

[@petrified2988]

@@PfropfNo1 well magic is something to be entertained with not to fool others. Ik how he did it but don't be salty

[@PfropfNo1]

Yes it’s a good act and I think if magic can fool laymen is more than enough. Tbh I’m not the greatest fan of the fool us Format because magicians try to specifically fool magicians. A simple double Lift can habe amazing effects but would never fool a magician. So they need much more complicated techniques to achieve the same effect, which might be surprising for other magicians but confusing for layman. Someone said takumi could easily fool P&T and I doubt It. It’s not a criticism to takumi. He is performing for laymen here so he did everything right.

[@adorkable81]

We all know he hides the cards in his hand. The impressive thing is he made it look flawless with relative small hand. No punt intend, just amazingly talent!

I usually don’t laugh at spelling errors but “desciple” actually made me laugh due to the way it sounds when read.

[@elmariachi6252]

i surprised he didn't get the golden buzzer.

[@Kratax]

Probably because there was no show, eg. dramatic music, slow motion, etc. It more like "only" showed skill and clothes.

[@adeliajoys]

Maybe they want to see more tricks 😂

[@supporthe8548]

Giving a golden buzzer is the judge's decision. I forsee a lot of experts are gonna leave their comments dictating who should get the Golden Buzzers. I would highly recommend those experts to be the judges of the show. Like seriously.

[@notme1972]

Maybe because he isn't that good?

[@ayumisanyuki7116]

Seriously knowing only David got the last GB, it's expected last GB gonna be singer. :/ It's the 3rd season bruh.

if u look the whole video closely at .25× speed u can see how he performed it.. Even though i admire his speed and his slight of hands... for the aces trick.. while dealing the card he put the aces at the back of the pile of cards in his hands and not on the table but his moves is soo smooth that it feels like he is dealing the aces on the pile at the table..

Takumi is a lennart green student. This sleight of hand, while props to Shin, is insanely much harder than any of those that Shin does. The laser deal is one of the most coveted sleight of hand techniques, congratulations Takumi.

[@roymizrachi7360]

@@natehochuli6457 agreed. Takumi is one of the best slight of hand artists out there. Shin has some mad slight of hand as well but not at this level. As a magician I'm so happy Shin went viral and Takumi is going to get viral as well, both are great artists and finally the world can see the beauty of close up magic

[@thestoryofmydiary9653]

This guy shares the same talent and superpower with Shin Lim as they know with each other, but Shin Lim's performance is way better, more hypnotizing and delivering more added value to the audience because he uses coreograph and dramatic music. Meanwhile this guy's performance is just like an ordinary street magician show.

[@zraven2931]

I personally like this style more, even though its not fitting for a theater this big.

[@zhchee7734]

I personally like Takumi better, honestly. It shows that you don't need all the props and dramatic music to make people amazed by your magic. I like it better if we can just focus on the magic shown without a lot of distractions.

[@thestoryofmydiary9653]

@@zhchee7734 Liking Takumi or Shin Lim is totally up to you or everybody else, but to win the contest is a different story. For me, although Takumi is super talented, it's hard for him to win because his performance is only at the level of street magic in a carnival or a circus. He does not present a showmanship like Shin Lim. Please note all the magicians who ever win a big contest like AGT or FISM always come up with a concept story, coreograph, face expression and dramatic music to be bundled into one package and I found Eric Chien's close up magic performance (the FISM winner in 2018) is better than Shin Lim's.
