The day the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs played their official Major League Baseball opener at Tokyo Dome on the 18th. An anchor of a Japanese TV program said the above and gained sympathy from many viewers.
Even some Japanese people complain that they are tired of the phenomenon of 'Otani harassment' This phenomenon begins with excessive competition for news reports related to Ohtani.
Ohtani, the best star in the Major League and Japan's national sports hero, is making headlines every time. The Japanese media reports every little thing about Ohtani.
At the camp and game site of Ohtani's team, the Dodgers, almost 100 Japanese reporters flock every day. And there is an overheated competition in which everyone observes each and every one of Ohtani's actions and reports everything without exception.

In addition, not only Ohtani's wife, Mamiko Tanaka's fashion, style, appearance, and behavior, but also one about Ohtani's dog 'decopin' was released and reported by the media, pointing out that it goes too far.

In particular, even when Japanese reporters interview players in other sports other than baseball, they are turning their backs on viewers due to excessive coverage, such as asking for thoughts or opinions on Ohtani. Even when the Japanese national soccer team passed the World Cup qualifying round on the 20th, when the Japanese media asked the national soccer team players about their thoughts on Otani, it was really inappropriate" was also criticized.
