I guess now it's Minami's turn to look selfish for putting herself above her precious Tacchan. You'd think she'd take a hint, what with her photo being in Tatsuya's pocket when she wasn't there to cheer him on and all. What goes around comes around, I guess?...

Touch has gotten boring ever since romance/romantic comedy bits got replaced with baseball filler/matches not connected to romantic developments. As it stands now, it almost seems like Tatsuya doesn't care about Minami's dream, and nor does she seem to care much, either.

I'm kinda-sorta glad Yoshida came back into the mix. His transformation from possible queer to hateful bastard guy rival is too unnatural for me to take seriously, but it does add an edge to the match, if nothing else.

I thought that brat died or something.
It seems like his balls dropped too.

Ooh, I like the way they're handling this actually. At first I thought he'd be transferring back, but him being on the opposing team makes the game a little less of a cakewalk and a lot more interesting.

It's hard to take Yoshida seriously when he is voiced by the same VA who voiced Reinhardo lmao xD. But now I'm really excited for Tatsuya vs Yoshida, could be a pretty damn good match. A battle between two big egos can't go wrong.

Even the coach is getting into this game.
And of course the bad luck will make it a close match

Poor Yoshida, maybe it would've been better if they kept pretending that he never existed, but I guess that it was a "nice" surprise to see his existence acknowledged again. Even though he went from an earnest boy who admired Tacchan to being painted as a "bad", and "vengeful" guy, when he was one of the most interesting out of the few characters from the team who had a face, and a name. If only it wasn't always about Tacchan as if people only existed to orbit around him. Oh, and I guess that Nishimura is fine, that thing with his elbow or something wasn't serious after all.

"That was just a hello" No Yoshida that was a dick move. Glad that the enemy this time isn't going to be the coach (or so I hope) but douchebag Yoshida instead.

Yoshida is back from Brazil, and he's not here to fuck around.
His looks (literally his eyes) and his voice changed. He's probably even a bit taller too. Puberty is a hell of a drug huh. Too bad he still seems to be a simp for Yuka.

Nitta and even Nishimura (long time no see) has come to observe Tacchan's game, so why can't Minami come too?! She didn't come in the last two games either.

You do realize that Minami get more attention and popularity than Tacchan? She got the entire school to support her with hundreds of fans, and she's got a bunch of dudes who likes her. Compare that to Tacchan and yet you're complaining about him?
