The 3rd AI ONLINE WORLD KOI SHOW

Could Nishikigoi enthusiasts from around the world compete across national borders to showcase the beauty of their Koi? The AI ONLINE WORLD KOI SHOW was born from this idea. Using the Airs Koi app, which allows users to enjoy Nishikigoi even more, images of Koi taken with smartphones are judged by AI. The first event was held in 2023.

The third competition was held with an entry deadline of 7 February, with the results announced on the 16th and an award ceremony held at Kowloon Park in Hong Kong. The award ceremony was attended by All Japan Nishikigoi Promotion Association Vice President Shunichi Yoshida, Airs Koi Co., Ltd. representative Fan Jun, and Chairman Futoshi Mano, who served as a judge for the Asia Cup Nishikigoi Show held at the same location.

This year’s AI ONLINE WORLD KOI SHOW featured three varieties, Kohaku, Taisho Sanshoku, and Showa Sanshoku, divided into six categories (baby, young, adult, mature, superior, and Colossal), with 306 entries from 10 countries and regions.The first place in each variety was awarded the highest prize, with Taisuwan winning for Kohaku, Liang Peihui winning for Taisho Sanshoku, and Luo Yaohao winning for Showa Sanshoku. The second and third places were then decided for each variety in each category.
