----------------------------------------
The match continues between Souwa and Noukin, with the latter school at the losing end, and more complex rules being clarified.

If anything, Yoigoshi and the Noukin team has a lot to ride on their backs against Manabu and his able Souwa team, the skillsets of both teams on different levels. Azemichi on his first-ever match, he put up a good fight against Ren and team captain Ayumu, but with the constant 2-point giveaway Lonas they're losing faster than expected. Yoigoshi is level-headed, and Ren takes precedence with a chase X counterattack that only proves his strength in style and substance.

...THAT IS, until Masato replaces the injured Azemichi to surprise everyone with his swift action, gaining a lofty 5 points for the team and sending Ren out.

To think that both team captains Ayumu and Masato (anti and raider) have a backstory of their training together for the Kabaddi team selection, that spites up the battle between both guys, especially on their 1-on-1 session. An exhilarating moment between both rivals that span time, intense focus, and love for the sport.

With half-time and a losing score of 15-23, the Noukin boys better buck up and rack up more points. You can do it boys.

Yoigoshi really gets ticked off easily. LOL. They also faced an all-out for the first time. Yoigoshi also got to learn a few more Kabaddi rules which will probably be a rookie mistake on a bigger stage.

The opponent's captain ain't gonna lose to anyone besides Ojo. He's a super-strong guy. He dragged two of them without any problems which was really impressive of him.

Then, we also saw that Rokugen and Ojo go way back which made that match up between both of them even more interesting. We're ending at 15-23. Can our boys bring the game back?

Rokugen vs Ojo was amazing. The OST was really good when Ojo raided first.

This is the best episode yet. I learn a lot abour rules, and the match itself is not boring at all.
But the most important thing is that it has the most fanservice scene to date, and we don't even see any shirtless scene. Their sexiness aura exude through their clothes!

Ojo is on a complete different level than the rest of his team, if they just rely on him they'll most likely win.

Ojo's raids were pretty awesome and the 1v1 against Rakugen was great too.

The match was pretty fun, they explained some of the left out rules. I kinda question the team letting Yoigoishi play without telling him all the rules, but it's a practice game so it's fine I guess.

We're already halfway into the season and we're at half time for the first practice game, how much can we even cover in a single cour?

Do I need to rewatch with my glasses or was that an unironically solid episode from this anime?
I honestly have no idea what I'm supposed to type here.

Ah, yes. The old Gorilla-Girl joke. One of the most dragged out tropes in anime. Still not impressed.

But I'm starting to really like Masato.

Oh boy Souwa team was bodying the Noukin team....until Captain Ojo stepped in!! His first raid had me tripping. 4 points in a single raid is no joke and this is coming from a interschool kabaddi player. Their smug smiles at the end was gold XD

Ojo is so fucking cool man, he changed the flow of the game just by himself what a beast. Though Rokugen is a beast in his own right as well, but he's no match for our boy. Well that explains Ojo's injury, it was because he was training hard. I want Yoigoshi to outplay Takaya next. All of them doing the Yoigoshi face at the end was hilarious lmao. Looking forward to the next episode.

Just one thing OJO is GOAT.
He is my favourite character of Shakunetsu Kabaddi.
And that OJO vs ROKUGEN was insane.

the table ost is there since the first episode. Though it's good, but sometimes the ost does not fit at certain situations!

The episode was the best untill now, the ost ,the tension created between the match all was perfect for a kabbadi match ,the charecters are wild, the guy who was swimmer i don't remember his name now sorry, was on different level than yoiguchi ,he is perfect opponent for him and this is just first actual match of kabbadi there is still a long way to go.

my bad then, I noticed it in yesterday episode all of a sudden when I felt that the music does not match the mood of that particular moment. Felt like that tune is copied from tenaliraman or some other similar show

Unfortunately, it looks like I’m gonna drop this anime after this episode.

The art and animation is just too poor to keep me invested in the actual matches. The sport could work well in an anime format and the characters are all interesting enough, but the execution ultimately squandered most of the potential it had.

I’ll keep an eye on it in case it improves, however this will likely be where I stop watching.

this anime just reminds me so much of Kuroko no basket but like not as good. obviously I'm going to keep watching bc I want to see what happens but definitely not my favorite from this season of anime. I do have to say I think it's fun and nice to watch but with obviously little irritations, like the fan girl squad with the trite and over used gorrilla girl non joke. and also the personalities of the characters just seem to be taken out of a " how to write a character" book if that makes sense. I want more about the characters not just the sport bc right now they don't have much going for them other than the swimmer dude. like I really hope that we get to see the characters reveal their personalities more in the anime and in the tournaments kinda how it was in the first two episodes. other than that it's still funny and good to watch after a long day

Seeing Yoigoshi getting annoyed like that basically in every episode, just that makes this anime enjoyable XD

Ojo turned the tables of the match right after stepping on the court. But what's up with his legs, did he hurt his own legs on purpose so he can move his legs quickly on reflex...?

Ojo is supossedly on a level that goes beyond Japan, but still surprised to see him being that good in a match. And that right after he has been discharged from the hospital.

A one-sided match until Ojo came on for Azemichi. Ojo really is a beast as a raider, but Rokugen held his own as a sole defender. Not a bad feat for a guy his size, tbh.

Nice episode oujou the captain of Noukin Kabaddi team swept the opposing team Souwa team just in 2 turns. The first half is currently over, and the match gets even more interesting.

I give this episode 7/10.

When ren came to raid after that 2 point raid ( around 10 mins ), such circumstances are not valid in actual kabaddi game. The called it "chase" but in reality it's called "persued" which is possible only after an empty raid.
