マラ左衛門？

[alecjahn]

This definitely wants me to play some of this.  Maybe it's because I'm a puss, but flag sports seem more fun.

[noan892]

Interesing definatly have to check it out.

[RisuMiso]

Nice video, but the intro you are sporting now is pretty amazing!

[MicknFumi]

Hey touch rugby in Japan very cool...a J mate played Oz rules footy when he came over to visit, did pretty well too considering he'd never played anything like it...cool vid man : )

[KurzWebber]

Ahh, I used to play tag rugby when I was younger, 6-10 years. Then we went into full contact and have been playing it for about 8 years now. Rugby's awesome! :)

See you in 2011 for the world cup, hopefully England will win... but damn, South Africa are good!

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, the Boks are in amazing form right now. NZ will really struggle to compete against them this weekend. 2011 should be magic!

Peace

[BusanKevin]

Looks like a lot of fun! I've never played rugby....looks like something I'd like to try sometime.

[Hikosaemon]

Touch is a fantastic sport - simple, no real gender/age barriers, and good exercise.

Real rugby is great as well, although as a Kiwi, we all have huge respect for your ice hockey and what those guys do. I guess if you can deal with that, rugby is nothing at all :)

Peace

[ManaStar]

Wow, this looks fun!

I would like to do something like this :D

[Hikosaemon]

There are things like this everywhere in Japan if you look. It's a great way to meet people and make friends.

[KIZUMAN]

I want play it!

[Hikosaemon]

I recommend it - it's great fun. Check the links!

[misctube]

Oh that looks like more fun than getting tackled by 30 crazy little shogakkisei hahaha XD Great vid. ~MJ

[Hikosaemon]

Hehe, I enjoyed your ALT rant - some people just care too damn much! Good to see you in and enjoying Japan, mate!

Peace

[psmtheman]

HIKO KICKING BUTT!

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, always, mate! Always!

[Ido013]

Hiko-san is playing too~ did you also play before coming to Japan?

[Hikosaemon]

I played a lot of touch rugby in NZ, but never serious rugby - I started that after I came here. Also, I had never played tag before coming - I think tag is a great invention.

Peace

[systemjap]

looks awesome =D

used to do touch football in PE

[Hikosaemon]

I've played beach football that uses a mix of touch rugby and touch American football - loved that, especially the overhand forward throws!

[nicmanity]

WAIT FOR ME HIKO IM COMING!!!!!!!!

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, I assume you mean coming... to Japan, right? If so, I'm always right here!

[milootis10]

rugby looks fun! i should try it sometime.

[Hikosaemon]

Touch rugby is a great way to get into the sport. It's safe, fun, and great exercise. If you like it, rugby is a different challenge altogether but I love the game!

Peace

[tekkengroundlord]

now i really want to go! man hiko, you make things seems so peiceful over there in japan.

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, just enjoying life! I can't recommend Japan enough, you should get over here!

[cather333]

Hi my friend Hiko,

Look at the smile of this Japanese Gentleman ! I love this country !!

You are adding peace in this world, by making videos like that Hiko.

I like that !! ***************

Cheers

Catherine ♥

[Hikosaemon]

Thanks Catherine as always for your lovely comments!

[NichiBeiTrader]

Looks like a great way to get exercise and escape the city environs on the weekends!

[Hikosaemon]

Funny thing is that this is right in the center of the city - Tatsumi is a reclaimed area right by Tokyo Bay. Really nice though, a real oasis.

Peace

[runnyrunny999]

Great!! 球技は本当に大好きだからこういうのも楽しそうだね！卓球だけは­本当に下手くそ・・・

[Hikosaemon]

笑、俺も卓球は本当に下手くそだよ～！

[HaxorLee]

Nice, they seem to have a nice Atmosphere going on. Nice Polite people playing unlike the usual grunts that yell and insult you all the time :P

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, I play for a French club and it's true that all I've learned in 5 years of playing is pretty much unrepeatable.. ;)

Peace

[ToLokyo]

Looks like fun~

I've never tried rugby - don't have a clue how it works really. But I'd be up for giving it a go someday. :)

[Hikosaemon]

Touch/tag rugby is pretty straight forward and good fun, especially in summer. Can't recommend it enough.

Cheers!

[Dino2jp]

へぇー、このスポーツは初めて知りました。

お手軽で良さそうですね。ルールが浸透したら人気が出そうですね­。

Thank you for uploading ＾ー＾

[Hikosaemon]

Dinoさん、こちらこそ、いつもありがとうございます m(_'_)m

楽しくて、大変お薦めですよ♪

Peace

[kwicksandz]

its seems odd watching japanese people play rubgy. good to see the sport spreading!

[votejj]

They've actually been playing rugby officially since 1926. A whole bunch of good NZ rugby talent has headed to Japan over the years too, and I see Craig Wing has just quit the NRL for Japanese rugby. I bet they'd be a real strong rugby nation if only they were generally built more like rugby players :)

[Hikosaemon]

The young kids nowadays are as big as any foreigners, and they are getting better with all the foreign talent. The Japanese national rugby team holds its own now against any team in the world in lineouts and scrums - just lacking a bit in open play power and creativity. It will be good to see them realize their potential!

Peace

[votejj]

That is good to hear, and I'd love to see them go well. I've always had a soft spot for Japanese Rugby - I still remember that unbelievable 1995 World Cup match where the AB's beat them 145-17 and Simon Culhane put 45 on the board on debut. I'm sure they've come a long way since those days!

[hhanyu]

危ないドッチボール（Dodge Ball）より楽しそう。

[Hikosaemon]

笑、多分そうだと思います。

コメントをいつもありがとうございます！

[iFukuyama]

have u updated ur intro? cant remember the background spinning and the glow-effects

[Hikosaemon]

Hey man, intro that Xaklder gave me always had that - still looks way cool ;)

[tkunnnn]

面白そうだけど土曜日じゃいけないか・・・残念

[Hikosaemon]

確かに、日本では土曜日が難しい人は多いですね。

機会があれば、是非遊びにおいでくださいね！

Peace

[Exhalethepain]

You a rugby league or a rugby union man Hiko?

;)

[Hikosaemon]

Haha, weelll, I play, AND I referee union (got certified with the Tokyo Union last week) so I'd have to say I am a union guy (everyone in NZ is) but it doesn't mean I don't love watching and have huge respect for the skills of the league guys. Love watching Origin and Kiwis vs Kangaroos test matches especially!

Cheers mate

[Exhalethepain]

Rugby Union for the win!

Haha, I remember when i first got into rugby. My grandad made me watch the world cup in 03.

We (england) haven't played like that since.

*sigh*

Good luck with South Africa on Saturday. When i'm not cheering England i'm cheering the All Blacks.

[Hikosaemon]

The Boks are monsters at the moment. By the way, the Lions tests were I think some of the best rugby I have seen since the 95 world cup. The All Blacks will struggle, but cheers for the extra support!

Peace

[Hikosaemon]

Hehe, yep, it's really good fun, and a good way to get to make Japanese friends too.

Peace

[Hikosaemon]

Hmmm, I am trying to mark this as "not spam" (it looks like it was marked automatically for some reason) but it isn't working - looks like a bug. Sorry! Maybe try the comment again...

[StormWolf01]

Captions? You tricked me! :-)

[Hikosaemon]

No trick, you have to turn them on but they're there, click on the button on the far right under the vid and choose which one you want!

Peace
