New (Burgundy) jdm steez A!

Check it out- unveils it @6:45, and discussion 8:30. Can anyone translate?
The guy with glasses who pulls it out works for Daiwa, not slp. I believe he's also the one in charge/head designer of the Heartland rods too.

I am not sure of the literal translation, but part of it said "all your Ben Franklins are belong to us." At least that is what I heard.

I noticed the Steez doesn't say Steez on the nose of the reel.

I noticed that too, but it does have the gear ratio on handle side and Daiwa logo on palm side.

It's odd that this video was posted on November 1 2017 yet I could not find anything else on this reel since then. Anybody else find anything?

That Kohga would be a sick punching reel. 8.6 ratio, 100mm handle, built for saltwater....Looks good to me.
