So much insight in this interview, he basically just explained why the koreans are better.

"Basically, I placed well and beat good enough players to claim that I am pretty good. And if I don’t have confidence in myself, then no one else will either, so I have to at least, even if I do suck – which I hope I don’t – I have to believe that I’m good at least."
is an amazing quote

Thats indeed an amazing quote. Its something thats as true in SC2 as it is true in everything else in life.

Great interview. It was really a good read.

All this needs is "mmm..." substituted before every one of his answers, and he'll sound exactly like he does in interviews as he does in my head while reading this.

He explained that in the interview.
Now we are both in the club of "people who caught mice and asked IRC what to do". Mine was caught face first on a glue trap though, but his back legs were free and he was pushing the trap all over my house. I ended up drowning him. - Lemonwalrus

If you would read his post, like 2/3 of this interview is on the importance of the "mentality" aspect rather than pure skill.

Very interesting interview. I really enjoyed it. I'm not a fan of Naniwa, but I like that he doesnt just give out standard responses, like so many other players do, but says what he actually feels, always makes his interviews interesting to read imo.

Jesus.. Very well played thus far naniwa! really. I enjoy watching you play and cheer for you being a swede and all. But you really need to grow up a bit and not take things too hard. Really, flaming someone in the audience? Think, don't just react. Keep putting sweden on the map! Much love!
