She chose an overseas challenge because she wanted to become stronger and be able to compete against overseas players.
She has the nicknames “Take,” “Jumbo,” and “Shige.”
She had to adjust to the style of play in the Netherlands, including opponents grabbing shirts more than she was used to in Japan.
Her dream is to play in England.
She loves to cook and even has a separate "cooking diary" instagram.
