That was a disappointing ending. I wanted to see Ayano win and tell her mother to go to hell. Or better still, shorten the match with Nagisa (it dragged on too long anyway) and have Ayano beat her mother at a game. Maybe it's not realistic, but I'd like to have seen her show her mother just what she abandoned. Oh well, another one for the "great until they screwed up the ending" pile. :(

Didn't like finale at all. Not a fan of Nagisa. Also i can say that Nagisa couldn't play that good at finale, because of her leg and Ayano was always better in all ways, so this END is kind of ridicolous. Nagisa couldn't stood all 3 matches and play like nothing, Ayano was always faster and tactician player, so no way Nagisa could outplay Ayano in long matches, Ayano would fastly adopt. Nagisa only had her smash supirior which Ayano could easily return. So 8/10 because of the END.

Well, that was an intense match and they switched to focused mode or whatever you might call it. Aragaki managed to win against the Oni Ayano whose whole motive changed in the last few minutes. From ''how can I lose against someone like Aragaki?'' to ''I wanna DEFEAT aragaki?'' well, whatever. Glad that Aaragaki won in the end, she deserved it for sure.

After tournament moments, she got her knee checked on and seems like it's fine for now. After credit scenes, a small match between the two most noticeable characters from the anime. A demon hidden in a cute moe moe girl and a hard worker.

The close up shots, animation, cgi, power shots were are things that I liked a lot from the anime. The drama was a bit off, wasn't what I really was looking for but nonetheless a pretty good sports manga if you cut off the drama stuff.

6.5/10 -> 7/10 mal

Not a bad one, I thought it was better if it was a bittersweet ending.

I heard about it being a very big disappointment when it came out so I never gave it a chance until now and I have to say it looks like about right.
The first episode is so good and then it's one of the shows that crashes so hard that it makes you feel bad about it.
It gets a bit better near the end but by that point it's already too late.
It tried to be so dramatic that it became annoying.
I give it a 5/10 because the animation carried and even so I feel I'm being generous.

That was a very good and intense match. I'm so glad Nagisa won! :)

But... Ayano forgave her lousy mother way too easily.

Overall, this was a pretty average show. I liked the matches and how they were animated, but there were too many annoying side characters which partially ruined my enjoyment. Also, Ayano's behavior and all the drama felt annoying at times.

The start to early mid of show was a little rough for me. Found it a little boring. Then I got invested more and actually enjoyed it.

I actually had no idea who would win so I enjoyed the results of the final match. But in the end, the mom sucks and created a lil crazy daughter in the process of her crud actions. All these crazies make a entertaining watch though.

Oh yeah and I found the animation really nice

So good news first: Nagisa won. Everything else would've been unacceptable after what happened. Bad news though: Ayano's mom was just forgiven like that, despite horrible parenting. I really enjoyed the first 11 episodes of this anime, but with the big reveal of why Uchika left Ayano, the last two episdoes definitely diminished my enjoyment of this show overall. 6/10

Not feel satisfied at all with that ending somehow, well this is a bad though but i really didn't like ayano to reconcile with her mother at all, leaving your own daughter just like that and raise another girl ? Seriously ? what kind of mother is that and the worst part she Invite ayano to live with her and connie in Denmark like she doesn't have any guilt at all, really i hope someone slap this b*tch reaaallll hard
