This is what everyone says when he's winning. When he's losing then everyone says he doesn't care or isn't playing with passion lol. Nothing on you, it's just funny how it works.
@@matthewhaverly3108 nothing important but if u r the opponent its annoying coz i hav played enough against screaming players and its a great sense of satisfaction when u win against them.
@@matthewhaverly3108 Well, first screaming is something you do to pump yourself up, so if you don't need to scream to win I consider it a plus. Second, screaming is something that can be really annoying both to your contender (which makes him more error prone and the match less of a fair play if the other doesn't use it against you as well) Third Harimoto is not the only player who screams when winning points but he is certainly the loudest and that's why most people are annoyed by him. He is just too much. You can hear him scream even if you are watching other matches.
@@quasira1908 yes on paper... Winning doesn't matter and it sounds good too.. But it's the numbers that put u on top.. Example. Marat satin was a great player and at times greater than Federer n Nadal but he has very lass grand slams so he's not considered that great. Same for Koki... People other than TT world will not even know him.
I really like Koki niwa, he's very calm, and also very talented, as several players have already studied the garish and false Japanese, and they have it neutralized
FZD had show how to easily beat screamoto..change pace and attack from mid-distance..because that screamoto weakness plus he can't lob or attack from long distance
Niwa is a great player ,he is really good ,he blocks and he atacc perfectly,Harimoto is too young but a great player he is good too but i think he need to came down first ,be relax like Niwa !Good job 🤗
I remember when Koki Niwa said that he couldn’t go all out when facing with a younger opponent, but when he faces an older one, he can go all out and not feel bad about it. Watching this match made me remember of that statement.
I will always root *against* Harimoto as long as he screams and celebrates against every net ball, missed serve, and unforced error his opponent makes. His unsportsmanlike behavior is shameful.
I hate Harimoto's screams just a much as anyone else, and I was rooting for Koki all the way. But I do have to say that Harimoto never cho's when he gives a net or an edge. He does apologize very politely when that happens, so I gotta give him that
I didn't expect that three years ago Harimoto was already taller than Niwa? I personally think Harimoto improved a lot in the past three years. But no one can dislike Niwa! He is really a unique person!
Can someone please put screamomoto on mute...His way of playing is to scream, it should be illegal, he is only putting of his opponent because he can not keep up with them through skill - good on Koki for winning.
I feel sorry for Harimoto. Somebody who was responsible for coaching him from a young age, years ago, failed him. They allowed him to form his habit of screaming after winning any point. And I think it reveals some kind of failure with whoever was teaching him and the method used. Regarding mental development. The mental side of the game. Something is not right and I cannot put a finger on it exactly. Perhaps the teacher, whoever that was, allowed him to think he was too great? If that makes sense.
lmao he's just not very mature, and screaming after points to keep momentum isn't him saying he's the best. there's no underlying mental stunting to look for here; don't be so dramatic
If cho'ing every point pumps him up, then great. He should keep doing it. He's 15 years old and number 4 in the world. A single loss from a high ranked opponent does not take away from his progress.
When you watch him live, you can feel his energy from the stands. It may be annoying to hear over the speakers but the stadium has a different atmosphere when harimoto is playing and the spectators enjoy it.
Niwa used his unpredictability well. He has no hope of out slugging Harimoto. Niwa's serve and misdirection is so good. Perhaps a lack of maturity, but Harimoto blasted shots even when he was caught out. He was extremely impatient, and that cost him many points.
All the ppl complaining about the screaming clearly have never played the game first hand. If its 10-5 and you score 10-6 you belive I can do this and depending on the type of person, you show it! Otherwise you can just give up already. I like that there are different type of players in any way, be it tactically or emotionally. Shows that there is no "one and only way" which keeps the sport exciting!
Koki knows Hari's game well. He blocks with chops and side spins that upsets Hari's counter. Hari loves blocking but Koki fights fire with fire too. Ultra short serves halt Hari's loop drives plus a little change in loop/forehand trajectory also forces blocking error on Hari. But most of all, Koki's blocking ability is the winner. Gotta fight fire with fire but not yelling against screaming.
Matthew Haverly tbh, I don’t actually care that much about the screaming itself, it’s how often he does it, and after winning relatively insignificant points. That’s why I was happier in the last set, where he only kinda did it after winning good points
Am chuffed because Koki, like Kenta, can now say he's got a victory over Harimoto in international play. Also my ears are thankful he was the one who hit the awesome smash away from the table and the service ace in the second set. I shudder to think how Harimoto would have reacted were the roles reversed. But realistically: Koki had quite a few more nets and edges, and how far Harimoto was affected by the finger injury he got treatment for after the end of the 4th set I don't know. Missing from this highlights video. The right index finger definitely looked red and swollen. He basically stopped choing after that injury time out, which says something. Also, he's the future. He massacred Mizutani recently. And he looked competitive against both ML and FZD in this tournament - amazing for a 15 year old. Koki can't say that.
I believe he has the strength. He lacks some footwork but his top spins are not so spinny and fast (powerful) because he uses non-tacky rubbers. Good for control but not power-looping.
Hiromoto is still a kid and I think his antics matches his age. It's still very unusual for a Japanese to be so expressive. But unless Ur a teenager playing professional table tennis at this level, you'll never understand the pressure.
Weird, just like suddenly my neighbors dog stops barking. I guess he can’t do it to his followers like there’s a hierarchy in the wolf pack to show respect
Just out of curiosity what is he screaming? Does it translate to anything in english? Or is just a grunt of his? Just curious nothing against the player :)
If only I had a dollar everytime Harimoto 'cho' ed....I wouldn't earn much here. I'm surprised he didn't cho a lot many points here, which is good...the kids learning some respect. I would give a trophy to Koki Niwa for just shutting him up...what a saint...!!!😋
This kid will realize how important his vocals are when he gets on my moms age(50) He wont be able to even open his mouth let alone talk or scream Harimoto Mother Nature gave you your voice *And she will take it back*
KN's confidence here was obvious, as he probably knows HM in his regular practice session in group with predictable moves. His experience also matters to tackle HM unlike the event with Ma Long.
When you lose to Harimoto you have plenty of Times to think about it ... Don't forget that koki niwa was the Real second Prodigy in japan After mizutani . Harimoto came out and beat him 4-0 . I'm so happy koki niwa still Can beat Harimoto !
Seems like a bad styles matchup for Hari. Koki is a soft tricky player and didn't really give many opportunities for Hari to counter of the bounce. Anybody know what the H2H record between the two is?
When Harimoto scores, he cheers for himself.
When Niwa scores, the crowd cheers for him
Such an underrated comment
@@muthuramalingamp7647 this is overrated...
Sad 😢
so happy that niwa won.. just a silent killer
harimoto is so noisy
@Lonestar Papa if isn't he, I'd say Kenta Matsudaira
Im a fan of Koki Niwa also ... so charismatic
Me too
Compared to Tomokazu almost everyone in the world is silent 😜
Koki Niwa the coolest cat on the men's circuit. Zen like temperament.
This is what everyone says when he's winning. When he's losing then everyone says he doesn't care or isn't playing with passion lol. Nothing on you, it's just funny how it works.
He has the drunken master style
BIG! Noise don't mean Good player only sometimes! Silent People in general are more Deadlier! :)
When he grins, you know you should beware.
imagine if harimoto did an error serve and suddenly koki niwa shouts. that would be hilarious.
Evil... Lolz
That would shocked him to death.
But the most important thing is the face that harimoto would make
That would be suprising
Quietest table tennis player vs the loudest table tennis player
Niwa blocked Harimoto's attack very well! Good to see him win
Koki Niwa 56 points 0 scream.
Harimoto 45 points 150 screams, most points he double screams and even triple screams...
So What?
So what??

Statistics will prevail!
Koki Niwa is the drunken master of TT.
Perfect description of Koki Niwa.
He blocc
He attacc
But mostly he blocc
Best comment.
Absolute perfection 10/10
He protecc
He atacc
But most importantly he chop block
MUST PROTECC
Niwa was so relaxed unlike in Ma Long's game, he predicted Harimoto's moves perfectly and played to his advantage, amazing match
Hari:cho cho
Niwa:😁
Hari:cho cho
Niwa:😁(focus on the ball)
All time favourit koki niwa👍
haha this real
The lovely silent wins.
Niwa concentration is amazing, cold like a professional killer.
Or a Zen master.
Very true. Empty vessels make much noise 😂😂
3:13 Love the ace
2:02 Beautiful point
Reminds me of Liang Jingkun shot in Austrian open
one of the best shot in 2019
1:20 Beautiful block
lol lmao
almost perfect
Very beautiful 😃
He stunted Harimoto's first attack with some variations of spin that wasn't obvious. Hari played great Koki played better! Great match!!
I can watch the match without even watching it..
When i hear a scream HARIMOTO won
When i dont hear than Koki niwa won..
It is sincerely good to see their last handshake & eye contact respecting each other. Wonderful match of course.
Omg!
Harimoto has improved a lot his " screaming"
😀
Keep allways in mind: Those who are the loudest, aren't allways the best.
Niwa's victory brought a sweet smile to my face..
Finally, I thought I'd never see Niwa defeating Harimoto. Great match.
Both are great players. ハリモトはいい選手で、長年のキャリアがあります。 コキ丹羽ゲームも見てうれしいです。
Thank you for silencing Harimoto I really appreciated it....
Koki the silent assassin strikes again. Anyone who can keep Harimoto quiet, please do. He makes my head hurt during a match.
2:03 love it 😍
Dunno why, but Koki Niwa’s forehand pushes were aesthetic af
Jared Schaller yesss
Slow, calm, collected koki
Just guiding the ball
Cool, I'm not the only one who was thinking it haha. His touch looks infinitely soft
Koki niwa has such a pleasant disposition unlike his screaming opponent. One of the best players in terms of temperament.
Good temper but not good temperament... He's too casual at times and lacks zeal to win... Cud have been a legend if he worked on that
Winning isn't the only thing that matters.
@@quasira1908 yes on paper... Winning doesn't matter and it sounds good too.. But it's the numbers that put u on top.. Example.

I don't think so because harimoto was just 16 at that time. He will learn later on.
@@amineshkumarrai1077 3 years later and he’s still noisy
Niwa's technique is mysterious.
Trust me guys, this match was between the loudest and the calmest guys of Japan 😂😂
I really like Koki niwa, he's very calm, and also very talented, as several players have already studied the garish and false Japanese, and they have it neutralized
So nice and deadly silent guy Koki Niwa. Congrat for bronze medal.
I am a simple man. I see screaming kid get beaten, I like the video.
Just love how calm and composed niwa is. 🏓🏓 Wish I could have that composure
They seemed very happy. Both enjoyed the game. It's a good game.
Its interesting, how much people would love Harimoto if he could just stop screaming
FZD had show how to easily beat screamoto..change pace and attack from mid-distance..because that screamoto weakness plus he can't lob or attack from long distance
Screamoto!! LMAO!
Screamotorola 😹
Harimoto was overpowering FZD and had chances to take a 2-1 lead
Screamoto, hmm that nickname may stick on him completely.
It's screamomoto
Respectful handshake
Niwa is a great player ,he is really good ,he blocks and he atacc perfectly,Harimoto is too young but a great player he is good too but i think he need to came down first ,be relax like Niwa !Good job 🤗
So true
Желаю Харимоте всего наихудшего. Невозможно смотреть его игру с включенным звуком.
2:05 Awesome. You never see someone fish then attack right away.
Nice to hear Alois Rosario. Wish he could do ALL ITTF commentaries.
1:28 this guy finally almost smiled
I remember when Koki Niwa said that he couldn’t go all out when facing with a younger opponent, but when he faces an older one, he can go all out and not feel bad about it. Watching this match made me remember of that statement.
What is the meaning of going all out? Not native in English but wondered
@@berateyn playing at your best

Bruh you need to chill fr it's not that deep a lot of people celebrate technically it's their point not because the opponent lost
So cool!!! Koki is my favorite player and i am very happy that he won this difficult match

Коки Нива-один из скромных и спокойных игроков в мировом теннисе
Без всяких выибонов и разных там показух
This is last year revenge congratulation Niwa and be more strong hari
I heard Sathiyan gnanasekharan got qualified for world championships !., Am i right?
what r the shoes on Niwa. they look cool
Koki knows Hari's game well. He blocks with chops and side spins that upsets Hari's counter. Hari loves blocking but Koki fights fire with fire too.

I just notice that Harimoto has grown taller. He’s not a kid anymore.
Nice thumbnail though :')
Its scary when Harimoto
Screams it sounds like swearing when u don’t understand japanese
Happy to see Koki Niwa win ngl, but, at least Harimoto was much quieter in the last set. If only he was like that more often :/
Seriously?? Everyone stop going on about the screaming! Who gives a fuck.. ffs

Jin also had beaten Hari before
And Oshima...and K Yoshimura. I think his coaches focus more on Chinese opposition.@@david0ade
Was thinking Victas vs. Butterfly until I saw Harimoto is a Victas guy now also! Love their products!
丹羽って上の選手には向かっていけるけど、自分よりランキング下の選手と戦うときに安定感に欠けるから見ててソワソワする。
What a respectful handshake between them in the end.
SILENT IS GOLD, SOUND IS
SILVER.
Master Niwa did a pretty good job this time, good luck for him ~
What happened with that Koki Niwa who were so skilled and a big headache for the top 10 players? I miss him :(
What was Harimoto saying when he was screaming?
6:04 that face when an anime character is about to unleash the demon
😂😂😂😂
Koki Niwa's technique is unique and amazing, but lack of power.
I believe he has the strength. He lacks some footwork but his top spins are not so spinny and fast (powerful) because he uses non-tacky rubbers. Good for control but not power-looping.
Harimoto: I shout
Kokiniwa: I push
Oh don't it pain to see someone cry
But my eyes still see
Even though there is no where to go
But my eyes still see
2:04 That's awesome😜
Silent but Deadly!!!
Go Niwa
what does Harimoto say when he get a point?
respect for these 2 players !!!!
This video came up right after i watched Lin vs Koji. Harimoto’s very first point genuinely gave me a scare
1:19
ace by Koki Niwa
Hiromoto is still a kid and I think his antics matches his age. It's still very unusual for a Japanese to be so expressive. But unless Ur a teenager playing professional table tennis at this level, you'll never understand the pressure.
You mean you dont have to scream and act as though you are having a seizure to win!? Koki is the coolest, and a classy guy.
Weird, just like suddenly my neighbors dog stops barking. I guess he can’t do it to his followers like there’s a hierarchy in the wolf pack to show respect
Just out of curiosity what is he screaming? Does it translate to anything in english? Or is just a grunt of his? Just curious nothing against the player :)
Sister Lin Gaoyuan, this is how to play- with pushes, not unnecessary flicks and going for unnecessary power and arcs on your shots
If only I had a dollar everytime Harimoto 'cho' ed....I wouldn't earn much here.
I'm surprised he didn't cho a lot many points here, which is good...the kids learning some respect.
I would give a trophy to Koki Niwa for just shutting him up...what a saint...!!!😋
This kid will realize how important his vocals are when he gets on my moms age(50)

Harimoto Mother Nature gave you your voice
*And she will take it back*
Niwa didnt scream because he knew the audience will scream for him 😂
1 medal is sure for Japan in Tokyo Olympics from Table Tennis..
Not if china has anything to say about it!
6:32 yes THIS is the angle that I want ITTF!!
KN's confidence here was obvious, as he probably knows HM in his regular practice session in group with predictable moves. His experience also matters to tackle HM unlike the event with Ma Long.
I'm happy that Niwa won after the harsh game with ma long but I love harimoto I don't want to see him lose every game
When you lose to Harimoto you have plenty of Times to think about it ... Don't forget that koki niwa was the Real second Prodigy in japan After mizutani . Harimoto came out and beat him 4-0 . I'm so happy koki niwa still Can beat Harimoto !
Only chance at enjoying Harimoto's play is on mute or him on the losing end.
Niwa is cool legend of TT👍👍
What a cool game Niwa, you're the best
Experience vs youth. Beautiful game !!
Seems like a bad styles matchup for Hari. Koki is a soft tricky player and didn't really give many opportunities for Hari to counter of the bounce. Anybody know what the H2H record between the two is?
Harimoto is leading 2-1 in victories
silence vs loudness 4-2 even though I sould support a young boy in a sport I can't being so loud and annoying ... gj Koki .. you are a gentleman
