Would *love* to see Naniwa in the GSL. More foreigners to support is never a bad thing, and I think he'd be more than a match for a few of the Korean players!

Milk. Interesting...

Great interview, thanks much!

I really like Naniwa, but I can't stand milk so I might start supporting Thorzain instead.

"Q: What is your favorite movie? - American Psycho."

This will probably just put more oil into the fire. ^^

@heyoka: What an awesome writing, thanks for that!

Amazing. Nani grew from a petulant boy into a determined, competitive man. If only a certain US zerg could do the same...sigh.

I spent most of my life drinking milk for dinner. Not sure I would pick it for my favorite beverage though.

If Grandfather-toss prescribes it I'll make sure to keep drinking it.

Man, milk and cats? Definitely not what I expected, haha.

Like always, great article. All this hype, I can't wait.
Blah.

Originally when I read the Naniwa "bonjwa" comment, I thought it was kind of silly. I mean to be a bonjwa you have to be absolutely dominant in Korean SC. But I think it's cool that he has that as a goal, and even better that he's actually headed to Korea to play.

Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

Naniwa just went down in my book: He is a cat person. That makes him lame.

Why? Cats are way more awesome than dogs. To be that independent and not really care about what the humans do to them while dogs are satisfied with being slaves to humans.

I recently invested in a one year gym membership so I will do that for as much as I can, as I stopped when I bought sc2 and became in terrible physical shape.

Respect for recognizing it, admitting it publicly and (most importantly) acting on it. Hope he finds time to work out every now and the. Good luck in the finals!

Was never the biggest Nani fan, but I'm with most the others saying he really seems to have changed for the better and I can appreciate him as a player a lot more as a result. GL tomorrow, I'm expecting an awesome series
