basically going to start from the beginning of my wcs journey, truthfully i did not expect to qualify as easily as i did when i came back. i always believed in my own potential as a player but i honestly did not feel ready when i came into wcs, i just randomly thought of playing some sc2 but people kept hyping me up and expecting unreal results straight away because of things ive done in the past .. for example some people such as demuslim ( who i am friends with ) spread false rumors not intentionally i believe about how much i played and mana hyped it up aswell because i played late at night lol, altho i played only the games i streamed and ladder. i rarely played customs . i guess this is all going to sound like excuses which i guess it is, I played bad in my games and everyone has bad games. im mostly writing this because i feel so stressed and pressured about everyone having high hopes and expectations for me . All i want to say with this is that i still like sc2 , not as much as before right now but im still going to hang on to legacy and try that while also trying my best to play this game as much as i can while doing progress as time goes by, not instantly expecting myself to win big tourneys straight away . i will stream in a few days when ive taken a break from sc2 for a bit since honestly playing against a player who plays like has makes me disgusted and he is the very embodiment of a PvP player that i think is wrong with this game, but thats not up to me to change. i just have to adapt better to the game and find other solutions that fit me and increases my win percentage.
So basically i want to try starting on a bit smaller scale perhaps, online tournaments as such so i can take it step by step.
last but not least i want to thank people who makes threads such as the naniwa reddit cheer up one. i realise now in the later stages when starcraft is smaller that a reason i got a bit demotivated was because the scene got smaller, but seeing people still being so enthusiastic makes me feel very happy and makes me want to keep trying so i guess all i want to say is that i appreciate all my fans regardless if im bad at showing it !
also special shoutouts to harstem and Theo who tried their best to help me prepare for wcs, but unfortunately my poor mindset got the best of me.  regardless big thanks to both!

Hi Naniwa! It was great to see you in WCS and its awesome to hear you're sticking around! Good luck in the future
|
Take your time Naniwa! Very much looking forward to your stream and comeback in LotV.
|
Watching your stream and WCS games these past couple of weeks has been fucking awesome. Smashing through to premier league after being gone for a year is really impressive and you should feel good about it. I'm very happy to see you're going to keep playing and streaming. Good luck in your StarCraft adventures!
|
Interesting how you look up to sOs this much, yet bash Has' playstyle after losing to him.
All in all you sound way more mature since returning though and I'm looking forward to your stream. Next season will be better
|
All Protoss players have the cheese in them, I mean you even tried the first game as well......
|
Really happy to have seen you play this season. For very selfish reasons, I'm glad you're planning to participate in online tournaments. I hope to possibly see you play the Lycan League next month. WCS Season 2 is calling your name and I know you'll do well if you decide to play.

Naniwa,
You should write more blogs. I found this real and authentic. Far different than the public image that has been made for you on TeamLiquid.
Best of luck.
|
Naniwa as a fan, the only thing that mattered in the hype, was that you were back. Your stream is awesome. Just keep being awesome and dont turn back into your mindset when you left.

Great to hear that you keep playing, really looking forward to your stream. I am sure season 2 will go much better for you, since you made such a fast progress after your break.

People like to hype you up because you said you could be the best foreigner in 2 weeks. Obviously you were just exaggerating but it is that confidence that makes some people believe. I've been a Nani hater but you have a great instinct for the game. If you keep at it you could actually rise to the top again someday. Best of luck
|
Nani your stream is without a doubt the best protoss stream out there because you have really high skill and unlike others, actually have the entertaining commentary to back it as well. Most of the time streams either have the entertaining commentary with mediocre play or not as much commentary with great skill. Keep up the great work and screw the haters
|
Hang in there buddy. We will patiently wait for your full comeback.
|
I've been a fan since 2011 and that's not going to change any damn time soon. When you're ready to come back I'll be therre!
|
Naniwa, you are a boss. That is all. gl hf gg. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and writing a blog for your fans!
Naniwa 4 Lyfe~~

Nani, I wanted you to win your matches obviously but more than WCS I am so stoked to have you back playing and playing streaming. Your streams have been a ton of fun and following your run in WCS was exciting! Keep doing you! (^_^)

I'm glad your back tbh I thought you performed very well despite just coming back after a long break. Everyone including myself had the "Dream" of Naniwa King of the North returning to sit atop his throne in Europe. But in all honesty that was just too much to expect for someone just coming off of hiatus.
