Good episode overall. The doubles match was pretty good. Having Sanada and Akutsu team up was an interesting concept, and it looks like Ryoma mastered that "Wall-breaking" shot... In less than a day.

Seriously though, why aren't these high school students part of the army yet?

Also, AKUTSU BUTTERFLY

Haha of course Ryoma learned it! Wow, he's amazing. And Sanada's double clutch shot was amazing. Once he learns to pull it off naturally, he'll be so strong

Tokugawa vs Byodouin isn't a tennis match, it's a pirate fight.

It was a good resolution to the match, Sanada knows that he can get a lot stronger and Akutsu found a reason to continue tennis other than just he loves the sports because he's such a tsundere for it.

As I went on, this show gets less and less about tennis, and more and more about technique or getting hurt, or destroying walls.. -_- I find myself care more about the players, than the sports itself because it's boring me. Nowadays the tennis matches are either "you can't return this" or "I can't return that", that is no wonder tennis matches are so short now.

'Nitoryuu' and 'Imetsu Mu' were amazing abilities. Pretty interesting doubles match. And Ryoma also mastered Glowing Shot thanks to his brother.

Pfft. Destroying Walls is for pussies. Ripping through the literal fabric of space and time to stop the ball is where it's at.

Lol at Ryoma learning that shot in a couple of hours.

Sanada and Akutsu was an interesting pair.

I feel like Sanada in some ways has become kind of a gag character... I dunno, his characterization is just so exaggerated now. I don't remember him losing his temper so comically and ridiculously before. But I guess we can chalk it up to him being liberated from the responsibility to Rikkaidai and awakened after his match with Yukimura. In any case, him and Akutsu make for a hilarious doubles pair. But I also think at this point, Sanada with anybody in doubles would be hilarious.

The match was enjoyable and I am actually liking all the crazy techniques like the two racquet tennis and double clutch and breaking walls. They are just going all out with it now, who cares about reality, maybe they'll eventually have to save the world by battling enemies using tennis or something lmao.
