When you let ChatGPT write your stories for you, you get some bonkers facts wrong - like this special tournament celebrating 100 years of professional soccer in Japan (false!) or Nintendo cofounding Kyoto Sanga in 1933 (false! origin club was founded in 1922 and Nintendo became sponsor in 1994).
Nintendo just put Pikmin on a professional soccer jersey 👀

Kyoto Sanga FC's 2026 kit celebrates 100 years of Japanese football with hidden gaming Easter eggs.

This collab goes deeper than you think 🎮⚽

Speaking of Kashima #Antlers, Leo #Ceára was indeed a key factor in securing the title ⚽️

The Brazilian striker has made a long way from his difficult days in Okinawa.

The Brazilian Sniper
From a random forward in Okinawa to a menace in the top-flight, the story of Leo Ceára is a peculiar one.

Kashima #Antlers won (deservedly) the J1 title, but it wouldn't have been possible without Tomoki #Hayakawa's hands 🧤

The keeper is another example of the "deer mentality" pervading Antlers' backbones - a winning culture, at all costs 🦌
#RegistaAwards
Deer Mentality
Tomoki Hayakawa is the embodiment of how Kashima Antlers’ mentality is unbeatable, and what he could bring to the national team.

This weekend in Chiba was legen... - wait for it - dary.

#JEFUnited Chiba are back in the top-flight after 17 years of drought.

We used a quote from HIMYM's Barney Stinson to explain why it was such a crazy ride for them 🟨🟩
The Possimpible
What do JEF United Chiba and Barney Stinson from “How I Met Your Mother” have in common? The promotion to J1 highlights that.

#J1League – tables of the first half (left image, Kashima in front) and the second half (right image, Kashiwa in front) of the season.

#Albirex went from bad to ridiculously bad in the second half – winless since a 1–0 against Marinos... in Round 20 on 15 June 2025(!). -_-

What an insane end to the regular season to J2:

#Mito , the farm team for J1, finally makes it to J1.

#Nagasaki barely squeaks out promotion.

Big oof to #JEFUnited who did their damndest and still couldn't clinch J1.

And #Toyama survives in a blaze of glory, leaving #Kumamoto to J3.

Wow!

Mito #HollyHock were (probably) tipped to go down and they're instead leading the J2 table.

Arata #Watanabe was let go by Oita, and he's now captaining the side with already double-digits of goals in 2025.

A rebirth story for the striker.

After a career spent wondering around, Arata Watanabe found his peak at 30 years old and where no one expected: Mito HollyHock.

His career seemed over when his competitiveness got in the way (again!), but Takashi #Inui is doing just fine.

He could have had more from his career, but at 37 years old, his stint with #Shimizu S-Pulse reminded everyone of what he's capable 🧙‍♂️⚽️
The Eighth Sin
Unlike other Japanese players who reached his age, Takashi Inui is still bright at 37 years old, fuelled by his competitive inner fire.
