Eh, I don't think trying to slide and take the ball from the bigger guys is a good idea. They're just too physically tough.

A pretty rough episode again with the gameplay. Even saw a bit of blood! Now I do like Tsubasa's team for making a counterattack and not giving up. This match has just been so intense that it's been one of the most impactful ones I've seen in this series.

My favorite moment is when the ball hit right against one of the guys' chest into the goalpost

He is successful this time. Wow, not just once, but twice!

The reporter who noticed Hyuga guy's shot named it Tiger shoot.

That made tall guy to return, but with Tsubasa returns with his instruction, goalie blocked it. The enemy captain also sacrificed himself to block Tsubasa's shot. That long hair guy also went for blocking it.

But it seems like the doctor thinks it's limit.

After several shoot and blocking while going towards the goal, it got in with that tall guy getting pushing it.

Tsubasa did fell like the doctor predicted.

Long hair guy is also getting serious and showed his eyes.

The people other than the main players are getting serious, too.

Long hair guy's overhead kick blocked by Tsubasa.

Serious fight between captains. Tsubasa, though already at limit and passed to his teammates with visions of the three not in Japan, and got the point.

One more min, and they protected the win.

At least the captain of enemy team has a goal of defeating Tsubasa again and decided to not give up soccer.

Judging from the title, it's Hyuga guy's team's turn next?

Tsubasa with his 'drive shot' aka 'eagle shot' has marked three goals, even if the goal of victory of Nankatsu has marked by the 'silver duo' of Nankatsu, Taki and Kisugi.

It's nice to see Sano's eyes, like in the in the original version of the anime.

Jito and Sano are a great duo, but they can't win alone.

Let's go to the semi-finals!

It was a really enjoyable episode.

For some reason this episode made me laugh quite a few times. Tsubasa spamming his drive shot reminded me of fighting games when you just keep using the same combo against your opponent. Especially when the long-haired dude blocked it, then Tsubasa kept spamming his combo into the big guy until he was pushed into the goal. Ridiculous, but enjoyable!

The last goal was expectable to be a team-effort. I thought this was supposed to be the last match before the final match, but apparently there's still 2 teams to beat, luckily.


Tsubasa is getting quite injured. veeery injured, and he still has 2 matches to go, and judging by the OP (and remembering some stuff from the original), he'll really have to keep pushing those injuries to win.

Geez, what a way to spam "draivu shutos" xD

It was an OK episode. I'm glad this match is over. Honestly, it was starting to get a bit annoying since Jito isn't of my favorite characters and not to mention that the way he was talking as if he had been in a thousand battles was really tiring to hear.

Anyways, at least that's over and on a side note, I'm really happy for my boys, Taki and Kisugi. They did a great job with the forth goal. As I've said before, I really enjoy the moments when the goals are scored by other players besides Tsubasa.

All in all, the last four teams are established and now it's time to see Toho Vs. Furano. Really looking forward to it.

The two semi-finals probably will be:

Meiwa vs Toho

Furano vs Nankatsu

The boys of the Meiwa seem to want to take revenge with their ex-teammates.

Decent episode but the spam of Drive Shots was a bit annoying. Especially since it's a new killer shot.

Hah, the Drive Shot spam. If you thought this spam was too much, just wait. XD

This episode was more like watching a battle shounen than a sports shounen. xD

Tsubasa's technique destroyed him multiple times.

And Tsubasa is a beast; he didn't care that he was severely injured during the match, or that he wasn't supposed to use his technique more than once, as his doctor advised.
