Judged on this season alone, Shintani graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 62nd of 130 of the 130 centre-forwards in the J3 League, on 3 goals and 1 assist in 21 appearances (0.289 involvements per 90).
We hold a single season for Shintani, 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 33, 74th of 130 of the 130 centre-forwards in the J3 League. At 28 Shintani is in his prime years, and a market index of 15.1 reflects that trajectory.
3 goals in 21 appearances (0.14 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 1 assist for 4 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 33.1, Shintani carries the 74th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the J3 League of 130, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kochi United finished 18th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a work-in-progress on end product (0.29 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

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 (~25), then tapers with age. At 28, Shintani sits on 15.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Shintani's projected Rating — 33.1 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.
