Kaito Streets

Okay, "Kaito Streets" — the first time I saw that name I genuinely had to stop and re-read it, because it sounds like a street-art alias someone picked in a Brooklyn loft, not a fencer from Kanagawa. And yet here we are, and honestly it works. Born in Yokohama in 1994 to a British-American father and a Japanese mother, he grew up in California, fenced for the United States as a teenager, then chose Japan and represented it in sabre at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Fencing never gets the spotlight it deserves in Japan, so anyone who commits to it is already doing something I respect. With the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics as his next goal, that name and that path are enough to make me root for him.
