We hold a single season for Kawakami, 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 17, 64th of 96 of the 96 central midfielders in the J3 League. At 28 Kawakami is in his prime years, and a market index of 0.9 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Kamatamare Sanuki finished 17th of 20 · a lower-table side
1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 30.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 17.3, Kawakami carries the 64th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the J3 League of 96, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Kamatamare Sanuki finished 17th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
