J3 – Page 3 – J.League Regista

Bargains

Many foreigners will come and go in J.League, especially Brazilians. Marcus Vinicius showed us the good kind.

Ehime FC got relegated in 2021, and we were doubtful about a return to J2. They swept the competition away.

An absolute debut from a former Japan’s NT member, an old fella, and some returns: these have been the Top 10 moves in J3 last Winter.

Relegations have been introduced to J3 for the first time ever: it’s better to revisit what happened the first time around in J1 & J2.

After more than 700 matches in the Japanese pro-world, Nobuhiro Ishizaki is ready to give it another shot in Hachinohe.

Unlike other realities – for example, Nara Club or any club from Mie –, FC Osaka weren’t expected to get promoted. Now what?

Another newly promoted team rocking the league and a surprising promotion: these have been the awards for 2022 in the third division.

Matsumoto Yamaga can say… they’ve failed. But at least “MVP” Ayumu Yokoyama could be a sign of things changing.

Despite missing out on promotion, Kagoshima are doing things properly. Koki Arita winning “Best Signing” is a sign of that.

With a huge Winter campaign on the transfer market, FC Gifu were expected to steamroll J3. It went sideways straight away.
