Reflecting events of the past and present, it would appear that teamwork is very important for any team.

I kinda like this new source of confidence for the show's main team tbh. Hope they can make some big accomplishments even if it's just two or more episodes.

Momentum is gaining for the final showdown between Soran and Sekirei.

Sekirei will be their biggest challenge, and my guess is that the entire game will be spanned across the final two episodes. I should really be something.

I. Can't. Take. It. ANYMORE! Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrgghghghghhg! I'm done!

I was excited to learn something about rugby. I thought it would actually be pretty cool.

Admittedly, I'm no sports enthusiast. I appreciate athleticism, in general, but sports are just not something I tend to follow irl. However, I've had great experiences in enjoying anime series' based on sports so I was ready! Truly, the list of really good sports anime is considerable, imo, & I can't imagine any other way I'd get pulled into regularly watching anything regarding sports such as sumo wrestling, road bike racing, ping pong, volleyball, baseball, etc. etc. etc. if it wasn't via anime.
The fact that I'm dropping this 12 episode series after a 9 episode time investment should tell you everything you need to know. I tried. I really, really did, but it just wasn't done well at all.

What Riku had that his longtime chess rival Arimura never had: teamwork and cooperation. However (and how much he yapped about it), he and Riku exchanged information, talked old times and the usual "I'll beat you next time!" trope.

Seiichiro, who pulled the team before Riku, did his team justice, but through his condition, many pulled away. But Riku and Akira, hoping for his return, and hopefully he does.

Sekirei is one fearsome enemy, not just between brothers, but between teams. For Riku, it's to prove his brother wrong and for Akira, to avenge Soran and Seiichiro.

The final battle. They'd better get ready for a high wall. I'm surprised to say that I'm quite anticipating the final 2 episodes.

I'm very happy they won. It was nice to see how they came together as a team. The final 2 episodes are gonna be great. Can't wait for the final showdown.

Nice to see Arimura not holding any grudge anymore and accepting what he lacked

Looks like the final match is here, who will win, the older brother or the younger one
