----------------------------------------
A lot of training and buildup for the first half of this episode. I feel like this series will follow a very similar formula each week.

I'm really happy to see Tsubasa grow as a character physically and mentally though. It seems his team has good support too with a growing fanbase.

Another great episode.
So much buildup for the excitement of the match and i knew the game would start near the end of the episode/
This Matsuyama cameo on phone was a good surprise xD

Next week we will see Shutetsu strategy, Bird Cage

It's been a while since I watched the original Captain Tsubasa, so I have only 1 question.

Is Misaki gonna play in this match somehow? My memory escapes me.

Tha build up in the first half of the episode. Tsubasa during a sprint like nothing, he is the next Usain Bolt confirmed.

The excitement for the match started finally. Damn the match is getting intense between Tsubasa and Wakabayashi. Everyone supporting the team, this will be a great game.

Great episode but it was mostly just buildup, I was hoping we'd get to the match earlier.

I love the scene where Tsubasa just casually wins the sprint event while dribbling. XD

The part where Genzou shows up behind Ishizaki right after the latter was trying to make fun of him was hilarious. xD
Anyway, the match is finally underway but Tsubasa's on defense for now. Genzou's pretty mad though, he wants Tsubasa to fight him now.

I'm so happy that the matches are actually animated and not just still frames like they are in 'Days'. Thank God!

Next week's gonna be lit.

Man I really like the way this series develops so far!!!!

Art style is really good. OST is also pretty great.

I also love the way they modernize things. Like Misaki uses his phone to e-mail his friends.

Wakabayashi challenges Tsubasa openly, but Nankatsu seems to have a different plan.

Can't wait for the game next week.

Great episode once again.


Animation style is good along with the scenes.

The match finally started.Wakabayashi seems so eager to to have a match against Tsubasa.

Come on for next episode.

The pace is faster than the original version, bur slower that Road To 2002. It isn't exaggerated, and that's good!!

I was very surprised to see Matsuyama's mail on Taro's phone! xD I wasn't expecting!!

I read the manga a few years ago, but I don't remember about some details of this game... So, I'm hyped for the next episode!!

Man, I've never been hyped for a sports anime since Haikyuu. Thank you David Productions

Now that we entered the first official game, nostalgia is knocking on my door... And listening to that ending doesn't help at all! I need more episodes...

I don't recall him making that kind of shoot in this game... And even if he does, he wouldn't score. That's to weak to use against Wakabayashi.

Tsubasa was ever made a goal in penalty box when wakabayashi was goalkeeping. shoot from out ot penalty box was too easy for him (before Kojiro Hyuga came)

Yes, yes, yes. Captain tsubasa. I love Wakabayashi. Tsubasa, and Ryo (Ishizaki.) The episode was literally hype as hell. They showed how the kids improved (Kid with glasses finilly being able to skip all the stairs.) 5/5.

Oh, look... a cellular again. -_- I guess it was just for the teaser.

3/5 Either this is becoming rather slow or my resistance weakens.

You need to be a special kind of as*hole to go and run through a track field where other people that trained hour upon hour for this day are competing just so you can show off your dribbling skill.
I know that this was just suppose to represent tsubasa excitement in a playful way, but i cant help but to feel like he is being portraited like a overconfident attention seeker.

Anyway good build up for the match.

Tsubasa has already grown significantly as a result of the constant training that they had prior to the game. Misaki is one of my all-time favourite characters. I'm excited to see him play again.

Of course wakabayashi caught the ball like it was nothing.
