Default Reika

I'm starting to sow tomatoes this week and went through the seeds I got Japan. There is still few, which I have not grown. I have been translating the texts on the package with Google translator app and also asked help form my Japanese colleagues. One which I plan grow this year is Reika.
I have tried to find out if it is determinate or indeterminate and what size plant to except. Somewhere I read that is is more compact than Momotaro.
In an other thread about Japanese tomatoes I saw Reika mentioned, so I would appreciate any information about growth habit, taste etc. from people who have grown this variety.

An other bigger fruited one, which I plan to sow now is named 甘太郎. Google translates it as Amataro, but my colleague said that is Kantaro. It should be about 2 meters tall, so it must be indeterminate.

Attached are photos of Reika seed packet.
