Ooh I kinda like the teamwork this episode. Working together with some clever strategy makes the effort collectively worth it in the long run.

It looks like there's some attitude going on from the other team though. In a competitive game like this, I guess it's not unusual.

Yes! Akira took Shogo down! Haruma's tactics cannot be beaten.

The rugby match of chess vs. teamwork. If anything, this is the best episode by far.

Purely 2D action with some 3DCG from start to finish. The 1st game was merely but a test for both schools. The 2nd game was the answer of resolve, with unfamiliarity being the winner by a hair.

I've gotta say, impressive that Riku and the Soran team surpassed their limits.
Onward to the champion team that is the finals.

I've never laughed so hard on an animation before, this one killed me a lot:-D :-D :-D, especially when they ran with the ball!

Shame man, Tenkawa tried to save the game but it was too much even for him. Riku outdid Arimura splendidly, he played rugby strategies while the bastard focused on chess. It just shows the bastard is stuck on the past, on the chess board of that day!

I really enjoyed this episode. Nice to see them all working together. Loved the look on the guys face at the end. Can't wait for the next episode.

Best episode so far, some actual tactics thrown into the game made this definitely more enjoyable to watch

To think four players would have a tough time against that juggernaut, I wonder how many people Akira can bulldoze
