As prominent mixed doubles players on the world stage,

Watanabe and Higashino have been childhood friends since their early years and long-time partners throughout their student days.

After entering the professional arena, relying on mutual support,

they steadily made their mark, securing Japan's first All England Open title

in mixed doubles and earning medals at the World Championships.

Their seamless partnership is akin to a legendary duo in the badminton world, the perfect companions existing for each other.
