On the 29th, Shohei Otani, who had no dating rumors, suddenly announced his marriage and surprised everyone. In an interview on the 1st, he revealed more details about his marriage. The reason why the whole world praises him is not because he did not disclose his marriage partner. This is because he showed consideration for his partner and an unwavering attitude throughout the interview. Above all, his response to the question about his plans for children is praised, giving him 100 points.

1. A constant attitude of “I don’t say anything I don’t want to say.”

On the 1st, in a press conference held at a camp facility in Glendale, Arizona, Otani received questions from foreign reporters after receiving their blessing for marriage.

A reporter asked Shohei Otani, “What is the exact date of marriage registration? What kind of person is your wife?” He gave a simple answer, “I won’t tell you the marriage registration date. Don’t I need to tell you? My wife is an ordinary person.”

Also, in response to a rather personal reporter’s question, “How did you propose?”, Shohei Otani expressed his thoughts briefly but firmly by saying, “It was normal. I don’t think it’s necessary to go into details.”

The reason why his attitude is so admirable is because he maintained ‘privacy’ and didn’t force himself to say things he didn’t want to say. There were many opinions about his response, such as “It’s good because it’s neat” and “If you really don’t want to answer, you don’t have to.”

2. The aspect of saying what you have to say to the reporter.

When a reporter asked Shohei Otani, “Did you usually go on dates indoors or at home?” his answer also attracted attention. Shohei Otani smiled and replied, “Yes, that’s right. Reporters are noisy when I go out.” “I got married, but if I didn’t announce it, there would be a lot of noise. I just wanted to announce my marriage here today and focus on baseball for the rest.”

This answer brought a lot of laughter on the field, but there was a bone in the words. It wasn’t just a sweet thing he said to reporters, it was something that showed Shohei Otani’s true feelings.

3. When asked about ‘the birth of a child’, he shows more consideration for his partner than himself.

Above all, Shohei Otani’s response to the question about his plans for children is evaluated as 100 out of 100. Shohei Otani received a common question from reporters: “What are your plans for having children?”

His answer showed consideration that is rarely seen not only among celebrities but also among the general public. She said firmly, “I won’t talk about anything that has nothing to do with me (because I’m not giving birth to a child). I don’t want to talk about it because I don’t think it will work. even if am I talking about.”

His words contained the meaning of prioritizing women’s opinions over his own as men. On SNS, “Ohtani’s answer at this time was excellent. He (Ohtani himself) is not the one who gives birth to the child. I could see that he could think of many possibilities and he was determined not to put pressure on his partner.”, “A very considerate answer.” Praise is poured in, such as “He understands that he, as a man, cannot give birth on his own,” and “He will not clearly reveal his desire for the birth of a child. In those words, you will see the kindness and good humanity (toward his partner).” .
