• Article is new enough and long enough. WP:EARWIG says "Violation Unlikely". QPQ is not necessary. I'm going to AGF on the Japanese sourcing. Personally, I prefer ALT2, but ALT1 is also good. Overall, seems good to go! Di (they-them) (talk) 19:14, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Shouldn't it be "was regarded"? "is regarded" make it sound like a general consensus, when it was one writer's opinion. Even then, it appears to present the source's praise more unquestioningly than the source itself. It looks like the (only) source is being over the top intentionally. They admit their overenthusiasm and the inadequacy of the comparison when they say いやいや、流石にこの2つを並べるのは五輪側に失礼じゃあないか in the same article. Will the ALT2's wording convey the tone? --2001:240:2428:D68C:A88A:93:AE50:2C3F (talk) 00:59, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Repetitiveness

It at some places appears to be repetitive needlessly. Can sentences like these be simplified or is there more nuance to be added? "... many people memorized the phrase and it has remained in people's memories", "... at the interviewer's request, recreated the Crazy Live report The interviewer asked him to reproduce the Crazy Live report", etc. --2001:240:2428:D68C:A88A:93:AE50:2C3F (talk) 00:38, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
