In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.3% of available minutes). He brings 0.87 goal contributions per 90 (0.87 goals, 0 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kobayashi.
Judged on this season alone, Kobayashi graded 25 — a strong campaign that ranks top 17% of the 130 centre-forwards in the J3 League, on 10 goals and 0 assists in 13 appearances (0.87 involvements per 90).
We hold a single season for Kobayashi, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 46, top 17% of the 130 centre-forwards in the J3 League. At 25 Kobayashi is in his prime years, and a market index of 35.2 reflects that trajectory.
10 goals in 13 appearances (0.77 per game) is double figures — and for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 20), a real standout. Weaker sides create and score less, so carrying double-figure output there says more than the raw number alone.
With a Rating of 46.3, Kobayashi carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the J3 League of 130 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.87 goal contributions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~35), then tapers with age. At 25, Kobayashi sits on 35.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Kobayashi's projected Rating — 46.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
