We hold a single season for Kojima, 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 30, 164th of 241 of the 241 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 29 Kojima is in his prime years, and a market index of 12.3 reflects that trajectory.
0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 13 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 29.5, Kojima carries the 164th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 241 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (0 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× 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 (~22), then tapers with age. At 29, Kojima sits on 12.3, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Kojima's projected Rating — 29.5 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.
