I wonder how many bets and losses Ippei had that day😂
Ippei was my high school buddy in Diamond Bar HS. Was in the varsity soccer team together and played a lot of basketball together as well. So happy for Ippei that he's the translator for Ohtani! By the way, Ippei has never changed his hair since elementary, I believe. LOL. Good job Ippei!
Ippei and I were best friends from 8th-9th grade Chapparal Middle and DBHS. Its crazy stumbling on his video..
His hair was bleached blonde a few months during the summer but yeah, same hair.
Sun Choi 🥰🥰🥰
Coincidence. Ippei and I were middle school classmates at Konoha. All the studying and training with kakashi and all were really fun.
Much interesting reply field tho😂
Ie represent!
As a Japanese, I can't wait for a documentary on Netflix 😂😂😂
I swear this guy was just sitting on his couch playing video games and he just happened to grow up in America with Japanese only speaking parents. Legendary job
Hell yeah he does.
He did grind it out as an interpreter for the Nippon Ham Fighters (Ohtani's old team) for five years, but yea, what a lucky fucking guy. He really was at the right place at the right time.
🤣
All the luck in the world couldn’t save him from his own stupidity. Ippei going to jail now 😅
" I wasn't an Angels FAN. I was more of a Mariners fan." Haha
and Yankees
yea I loled
Because of Ichiro presumably.......
The impact of the Legendary great Ichiro continues...........
I’m thinking Yankees was because of matsui too. Maybe Tanaka later. Matsui, while obviously not as great of a player as ichiro, although who is really, was/is so beloved and his 2009 playoffs/World Series was so legendary. Only World Series (i think?) to be traded right after 😢
He's imagining his next parlay 😂😂
"I didn't think he'd be this good" 3 years ago lol
Lol I wonder how he feels now
@@SocratesSodiumJr I wonder what he was thinking during the HR Derby, he got to catch for Otanhi
And imagine what he feels now lol
Lmaooo yo this dude is funny and refreshing bc he isn’t playing politics or giving generic answers or saying things fans wanna hear or sounding rehearsed. he is just giving raw answers. He also just has this cool nonchalant whatever comes to mind look/aura/attitude. Props to that man keep it up from an east coast fan and I’m not even a baseball fan! Just following the unique story line!
lol "i was a mariners fan"
hes got the OC blood in him lol
Nobody in baseball says political stuff. Thank God. It’s not like lebron or colin (don’t even wanna say his last name)
I wanna smoke a blunt with him and just ask him thousands of questions about Ohtani.
@@shutthefupdonny I'll do the same with Ippei and Ohtani there, because think about it: you ask a funny question in English, Ippei laughs, Shohei confused, Ippei composes himself to interpret to Shohei everybody laughs, Shohei gives funny response back, Shohei and Ippei laugh, you're confused, Ippei interprets back to you in English, everybody laughs.
lol, this guy had a dream job with a salary that was probably higher than 99.99% of anyone in the world , and he blew it
Super greedy bad guy
@@socalvibe4500facts! Makes it even worse when you're a habitual gambler!!😀😃
Agree. Ippei is disgraceful
I like that he was just honest without those typical diplomatic answers like, "Oh, I've always been an Angles fan." or whatever - just goes to show you how huge Ichiro's impact has been.
no wonder he's a japanese
Ippei really said he didn’t think Shohei would be this good😂😂😭
you already know this man got jokes
If he watches these videos, oh man how he wish he could roll back the clock
Who’s here after Ippei was arrested😂
I love Ippei as much as I love Shohei.
Not anymore I hope
Not anymore. Ippei is a disgraceful human being.
a gamble man
I like to see Ippei coming Shohei's interviews even in Japan. Interviewers speak Japanese, Ippei is just standing, watching Shohei.
I like this guy he gives real answers unlike alot of people in sports
He's awesome haha! He also doesn't have hundreds of millions of dollars on the line though so he don't give a fuuuck 🤣
he's JAPANESE!
they are honest in anyways..
Then I wanna hear the real answer of why he was placing bets.
I'm also a Mariners/Ichiro fan since i was little.... But I'm also a fan of Ohtani now.. looking forward to seeing Mariners play against Ohtani and the Angels...
Who’s here after buddy was placing bets 💀
Buddy’s getting locked up.
Well well well, how the turn tables.
@@Grizz1yAdams don’t know what you are rambling about. Anyways I have to head back to the office
This guy is horrible jeez
He is the fall guy, you idiots. Ohtani is the one addicted to gambling
I imagine how panic Shohei would be if Ippei just couldn't make it due to sick perhaps.
"IPPEI, COME ON MAN!"
He seems chill
chill enough to swindle millions and then do this Interview
Now he's a criminal
He is a man of few words... i imagine because he manage to much information so he cannot be that "nice guy" that every journalist can aproach and ask private things... he knows his place and keep things very professional... Most japanesse do that... and even if he knows he is living the dream... that doesnt took him from the path...
oh yeah , you have a pegged . he’s very “professional and knows his place”
Lol he was too busy placing illegal bets and covering his losses😂
Ippei Is the Coolest
KIDS WILL GROW UP KNOWING SHOHEI AND IPPEI TOGETHER. THERE’S NO SHOHEI IF THERE’S NO IPPEI💪🏻
How about now? 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Stay with your BOSS. You will go down in the history with the GOAT! and don't change your hair style, we might need it.
He got jokes.. now the jokes on him.
Tim Duncan got massively ripped off after letting his friend manage his finances. Don't mix business and friendship.
Yeah. Feel bad for ohtani who thought he found a friend but found a thief.
Yeah what a shame. Luckily Ohtani will be generationally wealthy when all is said and done but this all has to be very painful for him given their friendship. I'm not a Dodgers fan but who could pull against Ohtani. I hope something like this doesn't get in his head too much
@@Grizz1yAdams He has generational wealth already, Ohtani makes $50M a year off sponsorships.
Price vs Ohtani Tuesday, should be a good game. Go Halo.
I saw him smiling for the first time. 🤣
Ippei Your Hairstyle is kind like a movie star
This is the exact definition of "don't patronize me"
best job ever
lost his job
イチローのファンやったんか
なんか嬉しい
I'm not an Angels fan but I feel more envious of this mans job than Jeff Bezo's and I cannot stand it. If I could wish for one thing, it would be to understand Japanese fluently so I can take this mans job.
I hear there's an opening.
wait, was he from Diamond Bar!? because I also used to live there.
一平さんもFOXsportsデビューは草
上の方のコメントで同級生ワラワラ出ててワロ。みんな髪型弄ってて草。
He screwed up the best job ever
No cap
he really did wtf
dude had it so good, and he threw it away on betting on Colts-Jets games lmfao. man what a fuck-up
This dude betrayed the most likeable guy in sports...
Ippei needs to write a book when it's all done and said.
Sounds like he may have plenty of time from prison if Ohtani's allegations are true (innocent until proven guilty of course, but how he has spoken about everything recently, it doesn't sound very much in his favor if/when it goes to court)
Keeping it 100% I am an Angels fan because they weren’t the Dodgers. When the mariners got Ichiro they were my second favorite team.
What do you do off the field?
"Have breakfast and thats all"
In his head "and swindle $17mil from my client's bank accounts"
Good kid..and he's got a job! 😄
A damn good job with the GOAT. He will go down in the history.
As the only person to steal millions from his trusted friend, the GOAT
A unicorn consists of Ippei Mizuhara too.
Ippei is critical to Shohei's career and success, second to Shohei himself. How old is Ippei and what is the salary of a translator?
Ippei is 38. Mlb translator salary varies, for example Iwakuma’s translator made a confirmed 75k, but I think it’s likely Ippei is probably the highest paid translator. I’d guess like 120-150k but then there’s so many perks and things you don’t have to pay for that I think that amount translates to a significant amount more. I’m sure shohei hooks him up also since shohei is best dude and they seem extremely friendly, not just an employee/employer relationship
At Angels 190K. Now at Dodgers Ippei earns 420K
shohei even paid his honeymoon i heard
Where do I get this guys jersey?
Ohtanie 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Shohei Ohtani Should Buy A House for his family in the US
The first impression looked bad.
"i don't like the angels...they suck...but i get paid well and sometimes i get the groupie that shohei doesn't want".
He was afraid of making eye contact with the reporter
True?? He must have been hiding something back then😃
Shohei take Ippei with him on dates too. In bed, things can get a little awkward between Sho, Ipp and Sho's date.
He has a girl friend who is Japanese
Uh what lmfao?
@@danabertsch9699 who
@@danabertsch9699 who?
What’s she saying Ippei? She says that feels good, keep going
Joey and Chandler Bromance
Ippei Like to Call Spencer
GO MARINERS!
That’s his boyfriend?
これ、一平さんが、黒子から、翔の通訳として、注目されてきた時だね。
this guy looks like he's alwasy uncomfortable, like.. "can't ya'll just leave me the fck alone?" It's bad enough I gotta follow this star baseball player around all, and translate ya'lls stupid ass questions. haha
do you still think he feels that way today stevie?😀
He's a street fighter 2 gamer champ vs Shohei lol
一平さん、主役の表情だ、なんて言ってるんだろうなあ、解らなくても、ただ見ているだけで満足🈵😃✨
Bro took the fall for Ohtani’s parlays smh
Cope some more 😃😄
dude threw away the most easy money ever..
Facts!! Earning $300-400k a season wasn't bad doing admin jobs, mostly for Shotime. He could have gotten alot of chicks!!! Gambling man!!😃😄
@@tootspogsforever5590 a gambling man I'll never understand 😛 cause baby 400k I'll never give away
わ、一平やん❤
Looks like your going to jail buddy…

Looking back from now, he already started scheming his big swindle at this point.
0:05 Yes thanks to Shohei’s success 😂
he’a prolly 6 foot atleast
i walked by shohei and ipei at trader joes when he first came to usa...ipei is at least 6ft 1
Believe in Jesus!
???
this is unacceptable😢
Not a very good speaker, slurs his speech, appears to be disengaged, indifferent, seems unprofessional, and from other videos I noticed that his translation is not accurate. From a translator’s perspective he is not very good.
우리 오타니를 잘 부탁해요♥
Ippei Should Teach Shohei to speak English
I can’t believe he stole money from the man that gave him an amazing career and opportunities to travel around the world. Ohtani even called him his best friend.. smh
People that knew, knew. (not the gambling part, but his faked resume)
His translation was horrible..
Every interviewer struggled with his lack of eloquence.
通訳がデカいｗ
he gonna lose it soon. hint: J-LO
Not a fan of the haircut. I think he should just get matching haircuts with Shohei.
やっぱ髪型のこと言われるんか笑笑
鼻息できな粉吹き飛ばしちゃう
その下り笑っちゃったww
He has a horrible haircut 🤣😂
通訳にしてはけっこう目立つよね、この人。

Just yikes is all

Jeez how the heck did they find this guy. They found the driest personality money can buy. LOL.
you know who's a drier personality?

@@tootspogsforever5590 Oh my goodness you're so funny!!! Mom jokes. 😂
@@BenDover-vs7ih thanks!
This is getting ridiculous interviewing his interpreter cmon now
聞き取り辛いな彼の喋り方
記者の方が聞き取れる
Teach that kid English what a huge expense
Rehabbing, exercising, studying batters > practicing English grammar.
I think Shohei is comfortable with Ippei. Ohtani is still underpaid so Ippei's salary is not an issue right now. It might be in a couple of years. Ohtani will probably have to pay Ippei himself or lose not having him.
@@zeus6662 ippei gets paid 75k, that's nothing for an assistant/interpreter for a star player, especially if it helps him feel comfortable and perform better.
Are you kidding? MLB has billions of bucks to burn.
learn Japanese first loser!!😀
This guy sounds too lethargic.
He needs a translator.
If people only know shohei is a bully in japan 😅😅😅 and ippei is a joker
wait what? what do you mean Shohei is a bully??

Seems like the worst job ever
(No sarcasm) It looks boring AF.
And lame
you know who's more lame and boring?
your mom!😀
LEARN ENGLISH or go back and play in Japan. RESPECT THE COUNTRY YOU ARE IN.
It's a free country. He can do whatever he wants! There are posted videos where Shohei is speaking English. More importantly, it is clear to all that his passion for baseball "speaks" for itself.
Do yu want all those Spanish speakers to go back where they came from too? The Koreans? The Aussies?
Another Stephen A.
Nobody has a problem with it. If you don't like it, don't watch. Why are you even here watching his interpreter ffs
Learn to speak the language of the Native Americans, who are also invading immigrants, English is from England, not America, learn to speak Guarani or a native language.
His English is so bad..
