I would like to thank my parents for cheering me up after losing last year and the year before. I was nervous from this morning, so I am happy, but I will do my best after this competition.

I am a little disappointed, but I am happy to have won the second place. I want to win the next tournament, too.

PR TIMESI'm really glad I've been playing Puyopuyo. I had never been able to win a single Puyo Puyo Grand Prix, and I had been searching for my own play style for a long time, but I am very happy that I finally got the result that what I have been doing was right. In this final, there were many young generation players, and I won with the feeling that I would never lose. I feel that I have found something that fits my style of play, but I have a feeling that I can still do more, so I would like to improve my accuracy even further for future competitions.
