So the real, honest Naniwa was punished and then his personality was put behind bars.
This makes me sad, really.
I was and am on Nanis side on this, even after this artificial "public relations statement".

You know, that´s exactly what I hope. Shy people (not a bad thing either) without character we have enough already.

For a long time, I never really played this game for anyone else other than myself. Now, I realize that it involves so much more than that. I’m not alone playing from my home anymore; there are so many people watching my every game, and wanting to see me perform at my best. I don’t just play for myself anymore, but for all the fans of StarCraft 2 and eSports. Clearly, being a pro-gamer involves a lot more than I initially thought.”


I hope you know what you said right there you are starting to change. If so great and I wish you the best of luck for the future!

Good appology. If Nani shows the skill he displayed at MLG Providence he will win his way back into code S in no time. Goodluck!

Totally accepted. The most important thing is that everyone learns from this. It is unfortunate for Naniwa that he now has 1 less opportunity, but he'll surely get it later.
There are three types of people in the universe: those who can count, and those who cant.

Naniwa acts like a child or at least seems to have the mindset of a child quite often. I don't really mind it nothing he has done bothers me, but for him it is like digging a hole you can't crawl out of. Dissing every Korean you manage to beat at a MLG, thanking ONLY his Swedish fans, and now this. Shooting yourself in the foot over and over again. I personally find it all quite amusing his awkwardness while attempting to diss Nestea after a game at MLG and raising his arms like a monkey got an actual lol from me. I also like seeing his eyes after every loss and seeing the anger. He is a true gamer. But because of that he shoots out quite a few chances to make money without actually winning tournaments. GL in the future Nani Code S and so on.

Probably because alot of his fans are Swedish and most the vocal, it's a Swedish community thing.

"I prepared a lot and wanted to show everyone – especially my Swedish fans – that I had what it takes to beat the best. Instead, I let everyone down."

He did not say only his Swedish fans, just means the Swedish community is especially special and noteworthy for him.

So if Naniwa was a racist and sprouted hate messages in the middle of the game, would it still be ok because he's honest?

Being honest is a good thing, being disrespectful isn't however.

Catering to the masses of self entilted douchebags that seem to hang on this forum, "I feel super offended you should aplogize to me" people are so full of themselves and they talk about respect yet have none. I don't see the need for this apology but its what people wanted I guess.

According to the poll that underwent here recently, a considerable amount of members, including myself, think that Naniwa didn't do anything wrong and obviously shouldn't apologize. Don't generalize everyone, as they are different, multicultural, if you will. Also another poll results suggested that it is, in fact, a cultural clash. In my cultural background, demanding apology is even more insulting than the wrongdoing itself. Who's the judge, right?

Korea does have the experiences when it comes to progaming so now the foreigners need to make their own mistakes to realize that they are playing for both themselves and the fans.
Hopefully he will get a second chanse and learn alot from all this.
Sweden fighting!

I don't fully accept this yet... We'll see how he actually handles himself when he comes back out to play.

I am glad to see that he made a honest statement about the matter; hopefully, he will behave more conveniently in the future. He is a very good player, and losing him to bad manners would be greatly disappointing.
