    When he's on form Kenta is my favourite Japanese male player. He's the ultimate expression of the little guy in table tennis: his touch is even better than Niwa. Kenta winning sets off Ma Long or Zhang Jike, even beating FZD in 2013, is a great achievement. It's all touch, timing and placement. I understand and can appreciate the power of the Chinese, but I'd rather watch Kenta dance his way to victory.

    I have watched this many times and am amazed by the effortless blocks always pushing the power players out of position and then the simple kill block, just awesome 😎

    Been watching table tennis for years now , and i can safely say he was one of the most entertaining and best players out there ...even if not consistent...but the best style

    first of all, kenta's serve is by far my favourite. And wow, this video made me wonder why I don't just use some more block instead of trying to topspin the ball back. Block is definitly a strong counter option for players who run around a lot to get a forehand topspin in and position themselfs far from table. Similarly to Waldner

    Kenta used to be my inspiration when I was younger, too bad he's irrelevant now

    I like Kenta a lot since 2009, he played agaist Ma Lin. That match was awesome!!! However, seems Kenta has changed his style, less blocking, less chop block, less tomahawk, more agressive. But to me, that change is not affective, not to mention his style is not unique anymore. Watching Kenta plays recently I feel very boring :(

    The Japanese: a rising titan in table tennis. And a great player is Kenta Matsudaira

    I think Kenta has the best backhand of all the players. Amazing control on his backhand and the only one who can consistently attack a backhand shot from way back in the court. That shot is such a joy to watch.

    He makes TT look so easy...such effortless blocking, such ball feeling, those sidespin chopblocks which even top palyers like Wang Hao and Ma Long sent back to net...it's a pity that his game suffered the most, of all pro players, after the introduction of the effing plastic balls.

    That looks SO funny!! when those world class opponents couldn't handle/were baffled by those weird spin returns of his.
