I was talking about Sevilla defending. Not about 3 guys marking one player, I know that didn't happen. Obviously here was a bit exaggerated, but it does make sense. In football we always see many players marking a good player, the only difference is that in real life they won't follow him everywhere.

Yes, they didn't handle the refereeing right.


That's been my point all along, ofcourse you mark good players but it was showcased terribly

Well, it's clear that they want to make every detail of the game more intense, so they exaggerate. But I'm trying to lower my expectations regarding the portrayal of the sport because otherwise I'd be going mad.

It's crazy that Kuroko's Basketball is sometimes more realistic than this show.

This show's not bad but I was kind of looking for something with a bit more realism and this doesn't have any pretense of it

Why even write a sports manga if you're just going to ignore all the rules of the game

Wow! 1st time we've seen Mizuki played and he delivers! Damn! Seiseki really made a Monster there!
But I think Saku High would be a tougher opponent!
5/5.

Pull the jerseys...three guys = no foul. I know that anime doesn't have to be realistic, but come on. Bullshit.

Tsukamoto did very well, Mizuki though, he's sick.


Riiiight? Was that referee blind? On a bathroom break? Paid off? What's the excuse?

Yabai! Kazama almost fell in love with Tsukamoto. They should just fuck, seriously.

Narukami Shuji looks like he would throw boiling water on you while you lie peacefully in bed.

I love how the team they're playing against adopts that classic, the opposite team are total assholes-trope.

For a Soccer this anime is seriously lacking attention to the actual games. We are in a semi-final and didn't even get one solid game...

I could over look all those slides but blunt shirt pulling and still nothing? Come on!

Why were they even chasing Tsukamaoto when it is obvious he is of no threat. Like I understand that he serves as good distraction at first but now there really is no point in him unless he finally learns to do something.

Just running is not going to cut it any more.

WTF with the football in this episode seriously. i don't even see the rules in the footbal. some of those assholes supposed to get a yellow or red card and still nothing afterwards. wtf with that seriously. that pissed me off a lot somehow. well, i'm a fan of football even tho i'm following it...so i think it kinda makes sense for myself to get pissed off when a player supposed to get a yellow/red card, but the ref just shut their fcking filthy mouth up.

overall, an okay episode imo.

If Tsukamoto wants to be useful to his team he should consider learning to actually play because football is more than just running around. Also, I wonder what happened to referees. I know pretty much nothing about football but still, shouldn't there have been some sort of penalty for the other team, they weren't sneaky about it.

Why the fudge is the animation design like this!!

to this:


Just... so disappointed as a manga reader... What kind of injustice... Poor Mizuki.

Only in anime will the let you do whatever the hell you want while playing football, right?

Uh.. I can tell this much after watching the episode, I don't like the writing in this show. Obvious fouls but not even one yellow card? The entire team should have been ejected. Not only that, with how they played the entire game, they should have been notorious for dirty play, it's a wonder that the football association didn't put them under inspection.

The antagonist/villain in this show is written so poorly, it's always "you better not show off" like they are still in 2nd grade, good lord for Christ's sake Seiseki has always been a contender and a no name school is mouthing off like they are some hot shit? For real? Come on, I could have written a better game or plot for this "arc". Oh, and you really can't forget the "we didn't lose to you" at the end of every game, because you know, their character is so shallow that's all they know.

Lastly, fk the refs, no matter what sports it is, fk the refs.

Tsukamoto should consider quitting football club and join track and field club.

Whoa that was totally unfair, like three people on Mizuki pfff you need 10 people on him to stop him, that would be fair

Calling someone useless after kicking him in a soccer game, doesn't sound very confincing

I wonder why the referee didn't react to litteraly three people pulling Mizuki's uniform to stop him

Why didn't they get a penalty kick after they kicked the MC? It was far too blatant for the ref to have missed it.

Also, when all three of the opponents were pulling on his shirt at the same time, why didn't the ref card them?

That's it. The referees in this show are mere ornaments at this point. I saw at least, three fouls that deserved yellow card and that kick right to Tsukushi's jaw was an immediate expulsion followed by penalty for Seiseki. That's a dangerous play, no matter if the player touches the ball first.

Also, the idea of portraying Ariake as an "evil" team just because they play rough is utterly stupid. Not to mention there is no need to have them all acting like total dicks only because of that but of course, it's more than obvious the author wants to force the audience to empathize with Tsukushi's struggle and stuff. The writing in this show is being so bad, honestly.

Did the people who make this anime ever watch a single football match? A 3-man mark even for a player who is in the other side of the fucking pitch? What the fuck is this?

Also, Tsukushi crying for every single thing is getting tiring.
Pretend there's something flashy and cool here.
