Nice episode, new characters introduced and realistic approach to the mini practice game.

When I first saw Reika she instantly reminded me of Hinata from naruto.... xD

This is one exciting anime i love this episode. it equally has its laughs and the plot is heading in the right direction Area no Kishi should learn from this the animation is fluid and and feels more of a Shounen. I like the fact that gender doesn't matter all that much that guys and girls play on the same field. Shou was amazing spotting the passes and trying to intercept them and Erika goal was hilarious.

yeah i have that question too. Will she get that much thinner, wth.
But i really liked this ep...the soccer animation was fluid and u could feel their location on the field and how they move unlike another anime.
And man I have high expectations for shou he's really peeked my interest with those eyes. He can become an awesome Captain

Oota Shou was really pretty cool in this. ]May not have the soccer skills but that perception of what the players will do is epic. No special moves but the soccer is just pure unadulterated fun. Shilouettes in the ED spoil the team members, but I think furyua's will be a great addition. Just who will be the coach.

What's with that weird noise he makes at 11:18?

Thought it was great that the MC was able to predict the movement path's of the soccer play's being made.

Oota has great vision and awareness on the pitch. Looking forward to see how he develops as a player. I wonder what role will the Furuya triplets play on the team going forward.

It's a good football anime... the animation is a lot better than Area no Kishi, the 2 mc's are likeable as well. Shame that almost no one is watching this!

So I'm guessing your a guy? My brother prefers messi as well, and so does my nephew whose only two years old. When you ask him if he's messi, he says yes...

Anyways this episode was definitely interesting and I'm looking forward to the triplet demons..
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

I'm really liking the hero and his shameless way of going for the things/people he wants ;)
Especially like the fact that he's not self-centered, inconsiderate or perverted, which is super rare in this type of series.

Also like the way he contrasts with the female lead.

God I love Erika's expressions. I hope that they don't go the same route with Reika as Area no Kishi did with Araki.

Oh man Reika-chan seems to be one of those "chubby" girls with no self-confidence. Soo cute :3 Nice to see that Erika became friends with her. I bet she hasn't many so.

Oh my.. the BGM is truly atrocius.

The triplets seem interesting.

3/5

That green shirt dude at the beginning lol, the lips xD

For a defender Oota isn't that bad. He has good awareness of the field and leadership.

Erika's expressions damn cute. Those 3 demons annoyed me already. Cocky attitude.
