A year later he became champion of the J2 League and rose straight back to the first division. For Tokyo, he completed a total of 254 games and scored 33 goals. After promotion, he left Tokyo and joined the first division team Gamba Osaka from Suita in 2012 . After a year he had to relegate back to the second division. In 2013 he became champion de J2 and rose straight back to the top division. In 2014 he was surprisingly Japanese football champion with the club as a newcomer. In the master's year he won the J.

Only then did national coach Takeshi Okada , who had signed him as coach of Consadole Sapporo in 2001, bring him back to the national team on a regular basis. This time, he was also in the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa in the World Cup squad . However, he was only the fifth man in the Japanese defensive team and was left behind in the line-up.
