I find this long interview more interesting that the regular short ones, they have a lot more insight

I hope wax made more with coaches and GSL finalists

(I also hope we will have a video tour of TL house in Korea)

Naniwa comes off a little more friendly in this interview than in others I have read. Great read though. Stealing socks is still horribly immoral, lol.

great interview, really good to hear how seriously nani takes SC, he wants to win more than most people i think, he has the drive and the dedication thats needed, cant wait to watch him next Code S makes it soo entertaning having a clear player (forigner) your cheering for.

Good interview. Naniwa seems like a much nicer guy from this. Wish more pros would have this kind of long sit down talk, might help their rep.

Great read! I love his attitude about the game and everything, even though he makes iffy decisions at times.


Full on support! Your the best Naniwa!

:D I hope the Swedish guy who he got mad at reads this, I thought that was a really sweet thing to do to apologise to a fan. I liked his attitude too, he was honest wtihout being disrespectful. Particularly re. Stephano - being sceptical about player's chances but saying you hope they prove you wrong is a good attitude to have.

Great interview

I do really like his style of honesty no flittering around issues and no inflamitory statements because he can he just says what he really thinks. I also respect his attitude toward the game. Keep fighting Nani

It's strange that NaNiwa is saying that Stephano is relying on timing when the latter said that he just feels the game. Maybe it was just him being cocky.

Anyway good interview.

Awesome interview Thanks for this!

I like Naniwa's opinions. It was interesting to hear his evolution and comparison between GSL and other tournaments, and comparing other players.
