Which Japanese Smash Players are the Most Popular Overseas?

[@Song_of_Pines]

It’s great to see such great camaraderie between Riddles and Asimo, I would love to see them play doubles together at a future event.

[@naruinvegas]

Trueee!! They should!!

[@ignite09823]

Cosmosが「He is My son!!」って言ってるのは、スマ4でザクレイがまだオフに出てくるかどうかくらいの頃、当時世界最強カムイ使いだったCosmosにザクレイが突然DM送って「俺上手いやろ！」みたいな微笑ましくも大胆不敵なやり取りがあった(ザクレイ本人の談)からじゃないかと睨んでる

確かに、TweekとCosmosはラジオでいつもザクレイさんのことを話してます！

[@thundercharged1]

There's something cute about many of the Japanese players naming the overseas players who shared their mains lol. I love the solidarity. I'm also a bit shocked that other comments are surprised by Asimo's popularity. I thought it was known that he's one of the most universally beloved players here! His dedication and perseverance with Ryu even through bad matchups makes him very easy to root for!

[@naruinvegas]

I think Asimo himself doesn't know that either. I should tell him!

[@thundercharged1]

I would love to see his reaction lol. Genuinely, I don't think I've ever seen a single Asimo hater, he's that popular!

[@EDDYSUNSHINEv2]

The dude's inspiring, honestly. Ever since L'Odysseé Pretty sure I spelled that wrong), I became a fan.

[@FreddeGreddeMusic]

Fun content, I want more of this! I'm really curious to hear more about what japanese players (and fans) think about foreign and local players. Not just "they play the same character as me" answers, but like, who's the most annoying foreign player, who's the most hype, who do they root for, and so on! Do they think Steve (and Sonic) are as broken as we think in the west? Ask them please! 😁

[@startic7516]

So many people saying Zackray makes me smile

[@naruinvegas]

I know! It was really surprising!

[@bradybrandt9326]

I would say Zackray too - but because I’ve been watching him for so many years back in smash 4 too

I’m surprised that none of the Japanese players said Leo!

[@LoafGaemr]

It's probably because the question is aimed at Japanese players USA players are a bit more well known and talked about more

If you go to Europe, the majority will say Leo. He is to them what Zackary is to the American smash szene

[@NyakuBatake13]

[@Ironsilo]

From the perspective of the USA Zackray was one of the best players throughout the entirety of smash ultimate. When he first came over for Genesis, he was the best pilot of Wolf. He did really well into top 8 and was very young, he’s always been seen as a prodigy over in the USA. His rivalry with MKleo was also a big storyline here, plus he’s a likeable guy.
