My Take
Honestly, there's something immediately likable about a footballer from Kitakyushu — that city has a gritty, blue-collar energy that just feels right for someone who earns their living by running themselves into the ground on a pitch. Takahiro Kunimoto was born in 1997, which means he grew up watching the golden era of Japanese football and probably dreamed his way into cleats early. At 173cm he's not towering over defenders, so you'd bet the whole thing runs on technique and reading the game rather than brute physicality — the smart, scrappy kind of player who frustrates opponents more than he dazzles highlights packages. Libra with an Ox year in the mix sounds weirdly accurate for a midfielder type: balanced judgment, stubborn work rate, keeps grinding when flashier players have already clocked out. I find myself rooting for the quietly persistent ones, and this guy fits that mold.
