  see_saw (Experience: １１〜２０ years) A finicky rubber you have to master through your own power

  

  I bought both the 2022 version and the 2023-and-later version (purchased in 2025), and the impression is completely different.
  Compared to the same product 3 years ago, three things stand out: ① the sheet is much harder, ② it bounces less, ③ the ball doesn't leave the rubber as quickly — combined with the sponge hardness listed at 46°, the gap versus how hard it actually feels is huge, making it a rubber that demands a lot of concentration for both drives and flat hits.
  Because it's so hard, the ball really rises when you grab it, but if you try to take the ball at the top of the bounce it drops. Even on a flat hit alone it drops. That said, the spin is genuinely very strong. It's a rubber that requires considerable skill to use, and was just plain difficult overall.
  I matched it with an Altius Inner to keep the same brand, but the compatibility was clearly bad. I felt you need a soft, bouncy blade to make the most of this spin.
  Also, after peeling it off just once, the sponge tore in the center of the rubber, so be careful.

  2022年版と2023年以降版(2025年購入)どちらも購入したが、全く印象が変わったラバー。
  3年前の同商品に比べ、①シートが非常に硬い②弾みが弱い③ラバーの球離れが早くない、という３つの要素が重なり、スポンジ硬度46度と自分が感じる硬さとのギャップが非常に大きいドライブミート両方で神経を使うラバーだった。
  硬さが強い為引っ掛けた時のボールの上がりは強いのだが、ボールの上を取りに行くと落ちる。インパクトだけでも落ちる。ただ回転力は非常に強い。使うには相当な技術力が必要とされるとにかく難しいラバーだった。
  アルティウスインナーでメーカーを揃えたのに相性が明らかに悪かった。柔らかくて弾むラケットでないとこの回転力は活かしきれないと感じた。
  一度剥がしただけでラバー中央部のスポンジが裂けたため注意が必要。

  I play penhold pips, ya know Best value ever, right?

  

  First, considering most table tennis shops give a bit of a discount, you can get it for just under 5,000 yen, so it's great value for money!
  The rubbers I'd compare it to are Tamasu's Rozena or Yasaka's Rakza series, and this one outperforms and is easier to use than either of them!
  The sponge hardness is listed as 46°, but because the sheet is soft, it doesn't feel that hard! The speed is decent too, but when you back off the ball feels like it drops a bit, so I think it's suited to players who play close to the table!
  When you really sink the ball in it, it gets heavier and more stable!
  The spin is about average!

  まず、大体の卓球ショップだと少しばかり割引がつくと考えると
  5000円弱ほどで買えると思うのでコスパがいい！
  比較対象はタマスのロゼナやヤサカのラクザ系になるけど
  このどちらよりも高性能で使いやすい！
  スポンジ硬度が46°と記載されているけど、シートが柔らかいから
  硬いとは思わない！スピードもそこそこ出るけど、下がると少しボールが
  落ちるように感じたから前陣でプレーする人向きだと思う！
  食い込ませるとより玉が重く安定する
  回転は並だね！

  Toshihisa (Experience: ６〜１０ years) An honor student for close/mid distance play, opinions split by playstyle

  

  The sheet and sponge are both soft, so the ball holds well and it's easy to hit.
  Overall, in a good way, I'd call it a high-performance rubber with no bad quirks, aimed at intermediate players who generate their own spin and play close-to-mid-distance.
  Right now I'm using it on an inner blade, but if you want to play from farther back, I think it'd work decently on an outer blade too.

  Compared to rubbers like Dignics or MX-D, its maximum speed and spin are naturally a bit lower, but it's easy to hit flat and block with, easy to bring out the rubber's performance, and it lets you produce a steady stream of high-quality, stable shots, so I think it's perfect for intermediate players looking to step up to advanced level.
  Personally I felt its ceiling was a bit higher than Rozena's. I'm planning to use it on both forehand and backhand for a while.

  Lastly, opinions on how this rubber feels to use were split right down the middle between me and an acquaintance, so I'll note that below.
  Good rubber for people who like generating their own spin or driving with an arc. (me)
  Not so great for people who like putting spin on automatically like Tenergy, or a flatter, faster hitting style. (my acquaintance)
  That's roughly how it went.
  I think this rubber is going to sell about as well as Rozena going forward.

  シートもスポンジは柔らかいため、玉持ちが良く打ちやすいです。
  総括すると良い意味でクセない、自分から回転をかけて前中陣でプレーする中級者向けのハイパフォーマンスラバーだと思います。
  今はインナーラケットに使っていますが、下がって打ちたい方はアウターラケットに貼ればそこそこいけると思います。

  ディグニクスやMX-D等のラバーと比べると当然ながらスピード、スピンの最大値は劣りますが、ミートもブロックもしやすく、ラバーの性能を引き出すやすく、質が高い安定感のある打球が連発できるので、中級者向から上級者にステップアップしたい人にはピッタリだと思います。
  個人的にはロゼナよりも最大値は高いように感じました。しばらくはフォアバック両方使ってみようと思います。

  最後に、このラバーの使い心地については、知人と話して意見が真っ二つに分かれたので以下に記載します。
  自分から回転をかけたり、孤線を出すドライブを好む人には良いラバー。(自分)
  テナジーの様なオートで回転をかけたり、直線的でスピードのある打ち方を好む人にはいまいちなラバー。(知人)
  といった感じです。
  これからロゼナと競合するくらい売れるラバーだと思います。

  Ah-sama (Experience: １１〜２０ years) High-performance close-to-table rubber

  

  Since I had the chance, I paired it with the new Altius Combo blade to hit with.
  The arc is a bit low, but the grip on the ball is strong, and once you get used to it, it's fun being able to place all kinds of shots close to the table.
  If you play from farther back, a blade with a bit more bounce might be better.

  Both forehand and backhand are solid, and I feel it really suits today's fast-paced table tennis.
  In particular, that piercing close-to-the-table drive is something only this rubber can give you.

  折角なので新作のアルティウスコンボと組み合わせて打ちました。
  やや弧線が低いもののグリップ力が高く、慣れれば前陣で色々な球を打ち分けられて楽しいです。
  後ろから打つならもう少し弾むラケットのがいいかもしれません。

  フォアもバックも悪くなく、今時の高速卓球に非常に合っているラバーだと感じます。
  特に突き刺さるような前陣ドライヴはこのラバーならではだと感じます。

  Gai (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Easy short game, but power is a bit hard to bring out?

  

  I used Q5 on my backhand for about a year. Since I wanted a slightly softer rubber for the cold season, I bought the Q Quality at max thickness and used it for 5 hours over 2 days.

  Backhand evaluation.
  Against topspin, I could grip the ball firmly and produce balls with both good speed and good spin.
  Against backspin, hitting it thin made it easy to put on a decent amount of spin, maybe because the thin sheet catches easily, but on the other hand the speed didn't come out as much as I expected. I think it's better to hit it thicker while driving.
  Also, for flat hitting it's not that difficult.

  Forehand evaluation.
  I tried speed drives against backspin, and when I swung through firmly while putting spin on it, the ball really flew. That said, since it doesn't carry as much distance, cross-court shots need a solid impact.

  Overall, I feel this is Q5 made a bit softer — a good rubber with the essence of Q5 that intermediate-and-up players can use.
  It's easy to build an advantage starting from the short game, so it suits a close-to-mid-distance style.
  Also, if you can swing properly and put spin on it, I don't think it's unusable even away from the table.

  1年ほどバックにQ5を使用。寒い時期に少し柔らかいラバーを使いたいのもありQクオリティの特厚を購入し、2日間5時間使用。

  バック評価。
  対上回転はグッと掴みながらスピード、回転とも質の高いボールが出ました。
  対下回転は薄めにあてると、シートが薄くひきつれが起こりやすいのか程よく回転かけられましたが、その反面スピードは思ったよりも出ません。厚く当てながらドライブをかける感じにした方が良いと思われます。
  また、ミートに関しては、それほどやりづらくありません。

  フォアの評価
  下回転打ちスピードドライブをやってみましたが、しっかり振り切りながらかけるスピードドライブは球が走りました。ただ、距離が出づらいためクロス打ちだとインパクトが必要です。

  全体としては、Q5がちょっと柔らかいラバーになった、Q5のエッセンスが入った中級者以上が使える良いラバーと思います。
  台上から優位をとっての展開が作りやすいので前中陣のスタイルにあっています。
  また、しっかりスイング出来て回転かけれれば、後陣でも使えなくはないと思います。

  NIKAIDOU (Experience: ６〜１０ years) High-end model with great value

  

  Compared to Tenergy it feels harder and more manual, but when you hit hard, the ball comes out sharp.
  The feel is close to MX-D, but this one is characterized above all by being light, around 47g after cutting to max thickness.
  The trajectory is on the low side but the ball doesn't drop, and you can hit sharp, spinny, fast balls with good stability.
  Paired with an outer blade, I'd recommend using it on the forehand; on the backhand it feels hard, so you need a solid impact.
  It had a reputation as a close-to-mid-distance rubber, but if you pick the right blade to pair it with, it can put out plenty of power even from away from the table, so I feel it's a rubber that suits a wide range of players.

  Also, I feel like inner blade + QQ is such a solid combo that it might catch on going forward.
  Above all, I think the reasonable price and light weight are trends at the intermediate level, so I expect to see this rubber around more in the future.

  テナジーよりも硬さやマニュアル感がありますが、強打時は鋭いボールが出る印象があります。
  MX-Dに近い打球感ですがこちらは特厚カット後47ｇ前後で軽いのが一番の特徴かと思います。
  打球の弧線低いものの落ちることはなく、鋭く回転の掛かったスピードのあるボールが打て、安定感有。
  アウターとの組み合わせだとフォアに使うのがおすすめです、バックだと硬さを感じるのでインパクトが必要だと思います。
  前～中陣ラバーという前評判でしたが、組み合わせるラケットを選べば後陣でも十分な威力を出せたので色んな層にマッチするラバーと感じます。

  また自分はインナー+ＱＱは鉄板というくらいに今後流行りそうだなと思っています。
  何より良心的値段＆軽量という点は中級レベルのトレンドだと思うので、今後はより見かけることになるラバーでしょう。

  Biceps that silence even a crying child (Experience: ４〜５ years) Good for playing close to the table

  

  I used it on my backhand.
  Overall, it's plenty good close to the table, but once you back off it demands a particular style of hitting. Unless you're a real power hitter, it might be tough.

  The feel on contact is great. It resonates nicely and feels good.
  It also feels like it bites into the ball.
  Control depends on your skill, but I'd say it's above average.

  Speed is below average. It flies in a straight line, so hitting close to the table it comes in sharp, but once you back off to mid-distance, you either have to brush it a lot to get an arc, or muscle it in with power. This is with the Innerforce ALC, by the way.

  Spin is entirely down to your arm. I don't have much arm strength so I couldn't bring it out much, but on the forehand with a loop drive, it grabbed the ball easily and produced spin without effort. If you're decent on the backhand too, I think you can push with spin.

  Some say the push is hard, but if you cut down firmly on it, it actually works well.

  My impression: close to the table with an inner blade, or if you back off use an outer blade — that's sort of the setup for a shot at it.

  バックで使用しました。
  総合的には前では十分だが後ろに下がると打ち方を選ぶ。よっぽどのパワーヒッターでなければ厳しいかもしれない。

  打球感は良い。響いてくるし、気持ちいい。
  くい込んでいる感じもする。
  コントロールは腕によると思うが普通以上だと思う。

  スピードは普通以下。直線的に飛ぶので前で打つと鋭く入るが、中陣まで下がると、擦って弧線を出しまくるか、パワーでばちこりぶつけて打つしかないようです。尚インナーフォースALCの場合。

  回転は完全に腕。自分は腕がないので引き出せなかったが、フォアでループドライブした場合引っかかり楽に回転を生み出せた。バックでもそこそこ上手ければ、回転で押せると思う。

  ツッツキは難しいとの意見もあるが、グッと切ればむしろ良い。

  感想としては前でやるならインナー下がるならアウターでワンチャンと言った感じです。
