Yamakawa is operating at his career peak — the 2023/24 level is the level.
2.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 14 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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.
With a Rating of 43.9, Yamakawa carries the 52nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the J3 League (top 26%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.62 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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 (~33), then tapers with age. At 28, Yamakawa sits on 20, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Yamakawa's projected Rating — 43.9 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.
