*Clarification on Cerezo Osaka* I've been informed some of the information on Cerezo Osaka is incorrect. Captain Tsubasa doesn't belong to one club specifically (although you can say it belongs to the creator's real team Nankatsu SC). Cerezo's biggest claims to fame are the unique pink sakura inspired shirts and being the club that produced the likes of Shinji Kagawa, Takashi Inui, Hiroshi Kiyotake, Yoichiro Kakitani and Takumi Minamino. The origins of Gamba Osaka and Cerezo Osaka were intertwined, and it's arguably the biggest regional rivalry in the country. Similar to Schalke-Dortmund in Germany. (Source: shinyuu3466 on Reddit) Osaka does have a Captain Tsubasa Stadium in Tennoji Park. The ''stadium'' consists of multiple five-a-side pitches. Tsubasa is known for his acrobatic football skills. And on these pitches players can work on their freestyle and street skills. (Source: Urban Pitch)

As of now, I don't have a specific favorite. But I think I might end up with Kawasaki/Urawa/FC Tokyo

Have been a fan of Frontale since 2008. Love Kengo Nakamura and his loyalty to the club, despite had to wait for a long time until they won the league title after came short for a few times. Glad for him to finish his career at the top winning with Frontale.

For someone who just wants to know, Kazuyoshi Miura still plays football in Oliveirense, a Portuguese Second League team. Matter of fact, if you play Football Manager 2024, you can search him, and see that he's actually OP with those 55 years old.

Japan club crest are some of the best I've seen 👌

I support FC Tokyo now. Thank you!

Since 2016 I started love J league because this competitions have a world class tactically,strong philosophy, amazing fanatic from supporters especially kashima antlers every match like listen sing a chants "kashima wooo kashima wooo kashimaa woooooo oooo oooo oooo" and many flag in right tribune but really I more excited to gamba osaka

Park Ji-Sung used to play for Kyoto Sanga (the club you didn't highlight because they're playing in J2) before going to PSV and United. Some other players who played in J League before playing in the Prem are Shinji Kagawa (Cerezo Osaka, then United), Takumi Minamino (Cerezo Osaka, then Liverpool), Takehiro Tomiyasu (Avispa Fukuoka, then Arsenal), Hwang Ui-jo (Gamba Osaka, then Nottingham Forest), Shinji Okazaki (Shimizu S-Pulse, then Leicester), and Maya Yoshida (Nagoya Grampus, then Southampton)

Kyoto Sanga is back in the J1 league! Since just a year or so ago.

A couple of weeks ago I went to a Gamba Osaka game against Niigata & it was a great game for the environment and how cool the fans were.

Mannn, i'm leaning towards Shimizu S-Pulse! Thanks for the video!

Thanks for this video. I’m currently torn between Kyōto Sanga or Cerezo Osaka. Although this video is making me lean towards Cerezo

Ive been a fan of Kashiwa Reysol because of ao ashi, and after watching some j league games, I loved the attacking energy of Sapporo, and I love snow. Great video, I learned a lot from it

I can’t for the life of me figure out why they have a Spanish name though? Cerezo is Spanish for cherry blossom tree, the KZreadr said that’s Japanese but it’s definitely not. There doesn’t seem to be any reason on the webs as to why a Japanese team would have a Spanish name???

Great to hear that the video was helpful in making your choice! I'm not sure about the rivalry, since Yokohama FC has not had many years in the J1 League. But I would assume that there is a rivalry because they are from within the same city and Yokohama FC is the smaller club of the two

If the translation is correct, I don't have the best advice on how to play football in Japan and play for one of the academies. All I can suggest is to work hard on achieving your dreams. Uploading highlight reels of yourself on social media platforms may also get you some attention. Best of luck! I'm glad my video helped you become a fan of Yokohama F Marinos.

The biggest rivalry is Alianza Lima vs Universitario. Both are from Lima. So big, police riot have to separate the fans. I myself am a Sporting Cristal fan. Sporting Cristal was founded in 1955 and when they entered the league they became champions. They are known as Champions from birth.

Let me ask, I am a factory worker who lives in Southeast Asia, I am 22 years old, my position is as a striker, is it possible to play in the J1 League? Am I late? It's okay to play in a weak club, the important thing is to be able to play in the J1 League, my dream if I play in the J1 League is to play at Kashima Antlers or at Urawa Red Diamonds.
