[@xleague1996]

Thank you for coming to Japan for this interview!🇯🇵 We continue to grow with them 🏈

[@sulemanadeyemi5039]

Deep in Faith, Discipline in person; Football was just the icing. I couldn't have wished for a better Son. Proud Dad.🎉

[@InsideSportJapan]

A legend on and off the field. An incredible player and even better human being.

[@dn9597]

Nothing but respect for this ambitious young man and God bless the Japanese football team especially the head coach for giving him a chance to play football in Japan! Hope his dream of playing in NFL comes true someday!

3:47 Satoshi Fujita is one of the best coaches in Japan. (He played QB during his playing days.)🏈

[@Sam-Icy]

oh man, we need more Japan content. This is awesome!

[@boost_jay]

As a Lions fan and someone who hopes to move to japan next year, what an awesome story

[@MickMIzuki]

He just gained a fan in Japan, rooting for you!

あえて、日本語で書きます。 フロンティアーズ、ライスボウル優勝おめでとうございます！ アディアミ選手、日本に着てくれてありがとうございます！ 動画がアップされて、すぐに優勝なんて神様の思し召しとしか考えられません。 本当におめでとうございます‼

[@たけ-e8g6i]

Ade, you have brought a beautiful story to us. Thank you for coming to Japan.

[@MrUHTiger]

Respect to that man..

[@xxxeien]

Respect his passion and love KAWAII Japanese family at the end❤

[@davidmotu8056]

Amazing piece!! If any foreign player was to represent the league, it was Ade 100%. Love brother.

[@woopopop5353]

Adeの目線がまっすぐで素敵。 NFLでプレイすることを本当にできると 信じているのが伝わります。

[@Skeletors_Closet]

I did not know that American football was played in Japan. We learn something new everyday! Awesome story about what seems like an awesome individual in an EXTREMELY awesome country. When I make a trip over there I’m def going to make sure it’s during the X League season. That’s so cool. I bet it’s better without all of the extra bravado. The Japanese are very respectful and reserved. It wouldn’t seem like football would fit over there, but now I see that it actually does.

[@katblue-mountain5722]

Good and heartwarming story. Decades or a century later, NFL may find a player like Nomo, and then, Ohtani in MBL.

[@kimberleywoo5658]

Great story told by a brilliant director/writer/producer! Loved this one Lisa! 🎉❤

[@mnxn727]

さすが本家、すごいクォリティ。NFL JapanでもXリーグでも、すぐに日本語字幕を付けて公開させてもらわないと・・・

[@Hyokano]

字幕が完成したばかりなのでもう少しの辛抱です。DAZNにも放送予定です。

[@tarutori]

シーガルズファンだけど、こんなの観せられたらフロンティアーズに傾きそうになるわ！ John Grisham should write about you, Ade.

[@abubakaryakub1411]

This is beautiful ❤. The storytelling and everything in-between >>>>>

[@jordanpax9735]

I respect the courage it to to stay loyal to your coach and team. When you got that call from the nfl. I love your story. I pray for that day the nfl and x league get a true partnership. I want to see football blossom like we all know it can in japan and i want to see more asian ppl play the game and enter the league. Also anyway we can get ufotable to remake and complete the eyeshield 21 series

[@Billylamar]

An eyeshield 21 remake would be awesome.

[@Mattch9]

NFL is all about the stories and this one was told well. This was really interesting!

[@Coding_H17]

What a beautiful story!

[@04075692]

Wonderful story, thank you for sharing and inspiring me a lot. I will do my best for my IKIGAI!!

[@cm5174]

Loved this story👏 So inspirational!!

[@danielboals9602]

Having been to Japan many times on business, I can attest that it is a very difficult country to be a foreigner or gaijin in. Having said that, when you truly make friends with a person from Japan, the level of loyalty is hard to express. Satoshi Fujita is obviously a great coach, but the way he became friends with Ade is not unusual in my experience. Japan has a concept of giri or duty that we have forgotten in the last 7 or 8 decades in the West. We would be wise to try to regain it. Amazing video.

[@ashleywhite4689]

Beautiful story!

[@Billylamar]

Would love to see the NFL work with The league in Mexico, European League of football, and the x-league more. Those are 3 solid leagues, and with the NFL exposure could really help grow. I think in the next decade we’re going to see a lot more foreign players in the NCAA.

Dang, that's some Yamato Spirit, not leaving the team for a better opportunity in the middle of season.

The meaning of the word "Ikigai" is just "what you live for," like "His Ikigai is playing football," but his explanation of the concept is well said. His love for football guided him to Japan, and we Japanese appriciate him with all love🤍❤

Definitely made the better decision to stay in Japan and getting to the championship game every year. Rather than to play for the Lions, lose half your games, and not even make it to playoffs... and if they did, they lost in the 1st game. lol
