This is definitely my favourite blade of the dozens I've played with over the years. It is highly consistent in all areas. Very easy to topspin on both wings with lots of rotation. Pushes are excellent, both long and short. Services are very spinny and easy to vary. Blocking is excellent and predicatable both passive and active. It is not too reactive in service returns, making it comfortable to receive services. It is even possible to defend with lots of spin. Smashes have loads of power without effort. I cannot find any weak points. I briefly tried the all-wood Acoustic and I think it may be even spinnier but it is probably a little less linear but the rubbers were not identical. I am currently playing with Andro Hexer Powergrip on both sides. Highly recommended.

Translated from Spanish.
I bought this wood with the same setup that mima ito uses, fastarc G1 and moristo Sp, the sensation of the wood is great it is rigid but not so hard, it gives you quite a lot of security in smooth play and blocking and finishing shots, the top spin also has a good arc and good rotation. What if with the moristo sp on the backhand it tends to lower the ball a lot and it's somewhat volatile for both the player who uses it and the opponent. which I chose to change the poro for a friendship 802-40 super soft and that short poro changed my life, it gives you a lot of security good control and good feel. But in itself the composition of the wood is very optimal and lets you perform a good game adapting to any situation or strategy. In short a piece of wood.

I tried this blade only for several hours from my team-mates, but from my opinion this blade is highly control.
the setup is FH ( tibhar MX-K) and the BH ( moristo SP). since i am using short pips also for BH, so i am quite interesting with this blade.
when the ball bounce on the rubber, the blade will resonance, however the vibration is not annoying at all.
moreover we need the slight vibration to reminds this is blade control.
I am strongly suggest to use rubber tensor on FH ( such as Rasanter 48, DHS goldarc or nittaku G1) to maximize the output on this blade. On BH, we believe Nittaku Moristo is the best setup at the moment.
for the display, with purple tone is attractive. from long distance everyone will notice about this blade.
Overall impression
+ control is superior
+ speed is awesome
+ colorways is noticeable
- maybe the price is quite high compare with other brand
This blade is dedicated for Mima ito, who play shortpips on the backhand ( moristo), and nittaku G1 for the forehand.
Well justified with the price for Nittaku blade is quite higher than other brand, but you get the signature blade and the specs is superb.
highly recommended to buy this blade, if you are fans of Mima ito and the gameplay is similar with her.
