With a score of 6-6 going into this game, it felt like the match could go either way. Plus, I find it interesting to showcase some background storytelling this episode.

Not going to lie, this episode had a tense atmosphere and a lot of energy with both sides giving it their all. The timer also pushed everyone to their limits with every second counting on the clock. Hope they present more episodes like this in the future.

Maybe a little better than the previous episodes, but this is still kinda mediocre show.

I'm glad Ryman's Club started airing yesterday, which is already much more interesting than this one.

Koyo against Adalbert, the match just really didn't excite that much. Also, this is just a gender-swap of almost every other CGDCT sport anime out there that's just a repeated trope over and over again.

Sasaki is still on his individualistic play, while the others are doing what they know best of their talents. Between Ryu and Taiga, their little backstory...don't call it characterization, it ain't one. Also, those powers are so lame to give the characters some personality, a Blue Lock (or rather Shaolin Showdown) rip-off that does the execution much worse.

Wouldn't be surprising if Adalbert would win, and they won 9-6. What to do with the team morale now that they lost badly? This is certainly a lesson to learn well.

There could be Penguin coming from the ground at some point.

I can only hope Blue Lock is as gay as Futsal Boys.

I wouldn't count on that. Though I know nothing about Blue Block other than it's a sports shonen?

This anime is basically a glorified commercial for the gacha game that I think it is still delayed? Or maybe it's come out, idk. But it would explain why the players have literal super moves when playing.

I bet the gacha game is more targeted towards female audiences with the pretty-boy cast and the homoerotic subtext. That's the only reason I'm still watching this lol. Because it's otherwise pretty mediocre like many original sports anime are. At least there's Ryman's club, which looks pretty promising.

Taiga joined the team.

I think that’s the only positive thing that happened.

At this point, I have no hopes left for Futsal.
I'm just gonna enjoy the male friendship and awkward moments from it.
That's it.
Also please... "Dragon head shot" :cringe:

Imagine even copying the Kotei Penguin hissatsu technique, that would make this anime even more hilarious.

I'm done with this show. It's just so boring to watch, even in the futsal matches which are supposed to be the main attractions of this anime. I prefer to drop this one, watch Ryman's Club instead and wait for Blue Lock.

One of the longest 24 mins I've ever sit through, everything about the team is so corny and the small futsal pitch size always becomes large af when the players dribble

Like seriously, what did even Nagumo did to convince Taiga to play Futsal again, it's just random convenient flashbacks
