Ultra focus on Reika and the prove of her love for soccer to her mother. I still wonder when we'll see the thin Reika that that is seen in the OP ;)

Next episode: the games continue for Predators. And it seems we'll have the debut (at last) for Tagi Sugiyama (the "tanned" one with "the kind of" afro hair) ;)

I don't like the fact that Reika still the center focus which is like 5 eps now?
The pace is really slow compare to what I'm used to watching. As for Shou, well I don't know when we gonna see his full potential and we just seen hints/glimpse of it.

Hardcore cliched, but whatever. I liked it.
That diving header was awesome.

And her mother is kinda scary. Being that strict, while still being friendly like that.

Episode focused on Reika and convincing her mother. It was successful in the end.

Lol the one time she played in-frond of her mother that is kind of a scary cat she decided to trip and get dirty a gazillion times more than she would normally. It's like she was trying to convince her that is too dangerous to play than the opposite.

Edit: We need a gif with that Superman Reika flying lol. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Reika!!!

So many cliches. Nonetheless, it's still a good episode and Reika flying was the best part of this episode. I'm just glad they've finally subbed this episode and the next one. It was about time!

I'm glad everything worked out for Reika!!

Also, I hope this happens:

Reika x Kota
Shou x Erika

I know its centered around soccer, but I would love it if it happened.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Totally agreed..


Is it just me or Reika's eye became bigger which means she lost some weight.

Also, it seems like something is going on between Kota and Reika. That would be quite fun to watch. Things can get serious when Reika becomes fit!


Is there some 'fat people can't get serious with thin people' rule that I missed?

Aiya I really don't like watching her play soccer. T_T She falls so much and her voice actress reminds me of the "Eh? Ah, hai" girl from Moshidora. I'd rather see some real matches asap

She could ask Araki for some tips!

LOL yes

Reika did well in showing her mother she can endure the physical activity in soccer and that she loves playing it.

So the ball went out when Reika headed it?

To me it looked like it went in barely, rebounded off something and landed near the left cone.


Her mother was a bit annoying, thinking more about status, but good thing she wasn't those mean and strict mothers who would hit the child if they didn't listen.

Not a huge fan of this side story, it's very generic, from the cause all the way to the conclusion. This series is good but it's slowly but surely losing my interest. I like the concept but I feel like the series rush too quickly into the tournament, I actually didn't root for the main team in the second round, The team is visibly not ready for any real games, yet they still won those games. I know all the talk about talent and all that, but I don't really like it.
