S. Ota is a 30-year-old attacking midfielder at Shonan Bellmare, rated 29.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 567th of 874 in the J3 League. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (67.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ota.
Judged on this season alone, Ota graded 16 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 43rd of 71 of the 71 attacking midfielders in the J3 League, on 2 goals and 0 assists in 21 appearances (0.141 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 16). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 29, 54th of 71 of the 71 attacking midfielders in the J3 League. At 30 Ota is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 11.1 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2023/24 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2 goals in 21 appearances (0.1 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb.
With a Rating of 29.2, Ota carries the 54th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the J3 League of 71, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Shonan Bellmare finished 19th 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 (0.14 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× 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 30, Ota sits on 11.1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ota's projected Rating — 29.2 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.
