To-y

[9.0] "To-Y is another one of my favorite rookies along with Yuya Koroku; they are both going to be the ones to carry this company in the future, and I can't wait to see what the future holds in store for To-Y. He's such a fun wrestler, and he's already progressing well."

[10.0] "He will undoubtably get on the level of Ueno, Takeshita and Ibushi in terms of DDT homegrown prospects. So far everything he's done on his path there has been exceptional. He is very entertaining in promos and his work with the 37Kamina has been what's carried the company over the past few years. He should guest in Best of the Super Juniors as soon as possible."

[7.0] "He has really won me over very quickly with his versatile ring work and athleticism, particular for how short an amount of time he's been doing this. I think the two things he's missing for a higher rating are some promo work and an eventual break away from 37KAMINA to find himself a character. He's got everything about the ring work part down but in interviews he just kind of shrivels compared to, say, Katsumata or Ueno. HIs natural speaking voice does not match at all this shouty, fiery Babyface he normally plays, and I think finding a way to connect those two into a new direction is the next step for him."

[9.0] "Incredibly impressed with Kojima, normally this would just be a 7 from me, but the fact that he comes out to The Offspring gives him a 9 in my books. He needs to get a lowrider dressed up as a taxi for future big show entrances a la Eddie Guerrero for me."

[8.0] "Kojima is the future of DDT along with Hideki and Koroku. He is naturally likeable and plays the underdog babyface better than just about any rookie in wrestling today. He already has some great tag matches under his belt and I have no doubt he and Koroku will carry DDT in the future as generational rivals. Edit: Since making this comment he has gone on to have a number of great tag matches and start another interesting and captivating story with Ishida. 2023 will hopefully be even better year for Toi."

[9.0] "Toi is already the best young lion in DDT and I hope he will be the next Konosuke for them, hoping only not so narcissistic). So, time runs and now I can say that in my eyes he became even bigger star than he was, a lot of great matches were shown by him and his telling skills became much more cooler, now, Toi really is a top guy of DDT and future star."

[10.0] "Today is Toi's birthday, and I want to do it on this very day. I'm the first, but not the last person to do it. Kojima is a truly unique boy for me, because he was able to charm me even before his official debut, only because of his promo on the Opening Call. The reason is that even then he showed his personality, which distinguished him from most young guys who were just about to find themselves. His monotonous tone of voice was very meme and funny, and humor is a great way to get attention. Besides, he did it himself, without the help of any of the more experienced comedy wrestlers. Kojima already knew what would set him apart from the rest as he gained experience and developed his ring skill. And it was already a character work from a boy who hadn't even begun his journey then. But this wasn't his only talent. Toi knows how to keep the fans interested, and he did a great job of playing the underdog who immediately had goals that he aspired to in every possible way. He fought not only for experience, but also for personal goals, which almost no newcomer usually has. The Offspring as the theme song maybe was a hint of where the young talent would go, but he didn't just join T37K, he tried to earn this right. Both that match and the moment after it were incredible. Kojima fought like a real lion even against bigger and stronger Takeshita and then showed character and determination, especially when he slapped Ueno in the face. And this was just the beginning of his progress path. Kojima demonstrates an unbeliavable, especially for his experience, sense of ring. He's already a great storyteller who can make even a boring match much more interesting. And he isn't always felt like a young lion, with many experienced wrestlers Kojima fights on equal terms, and some he's already outgrown in terms of his ability to make storytelling and be interesting. I'm a huge fan of the DDT young wrestlers and I love the emotionality and fire they fight with, but two of them I especially like, and one of them is Toi. And Koji is an amazing seller, this thing is very valuable for a wrestler. His moveset is already impressive, but I see Toi adding new moves while improving old ones, and his enzuigiri is wonderful and also is one of his schticks. Toi doesn't afraid of experiments, and he's great in any type of match, serious or comedy. Intergender (as Elizabeth Toi), hardcore, street, exploding etc. It's a great experience. Oftentimes, Toi makes matches better even if his teammates cause a cringe (hi, Mao and Shunma). And he already has rivals, feuds with which will reach a new level later, and stories with experienced wrestlers. Sanshiro sees him as a big thing and Kojima definitely will be one of the brightest stars of wrestling, not only DDT. According to the level of talent, I can say that a genius is growing out of him, who may be someone like Harashima in the future. Chris Brookes and Jun Akiyama, his wrestling fathers, can be proud of him. Good luck, Toi!"

[7.0] "Very promising for a wrestler that is only 1 year into his career, he already knows how to wrestle and have a bit of charisma that needs to be polished."

[6.0] "DDT clearly has a lot of faith in Toi Kojima, seeing as they have placed him in 37KAMINA, perhaps the most prominent faction in the promotion. He has looked solid thus far in his young career and I am sure he will continue to develop."

[6.0] "I've been pretty impressed with Kojima so far. I've seen most of his matches, and while he hasn't wowed me yet, he's a dependable rookie who should only get better over time. Also, his entrance song is the theme from Crazy Taxi, which is undeniably awesome."
