That was a good match, eventhough Jackal eased off a bit so that Sakura would get a chance to win, and the fans can be entertained.

I hate to say this but I'm loving this.

IF IF IF this show gets good rating in Japan , season two would be pretty much confirmed. SekaTsuyo : Shangri-La Circuit.

5/5.
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes!
Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!"

A very awesome fight, and like the match with Rio it was for almost the whole episode. Again, like episode 6, they added something things to this episode to make it better that wasn't in the manga. Like that flashback scene where Misaki taught Sakura the Misaki Special 2, that was just great and it gave the viewers an explanation as to how she knew that move and it's predecessor whereas in the manga it wasn't explained until Jackal met up with Misaki.

And I FINALLY got what I wanted to see, Moe makes her appearance finally!! :D And in another scene that was added to the anime in which she just appears randomly at the Berserk gym.

That was a great match, it was nice seeing Jackal go easier a little on Sakura and make her struggle more.

The ending song was great, and oh man MOE is coming in next week, the show's score is gonna bump to 9.00 after her debut.

In all honesty, I didn't really expect Sakura to win against a world champion like Jackal. I'm glad that even the world champion thinks that Sakura might surpass both her and Misaki someday. I'm sure that Sakura will take this and keep pushing forward until she can one day beat Jackal.

And I'm interested to see how the new girl, Moe, does in her debut.

That might be for you, not so wight the rest of us. And the producers had to stay true to the manga itself, especially the underdog aspects.

The fight was actually pretty interesting and entertaining for me. It was nice to see Sakura hold her own for a bit (even if Jackal was going easy). New ending was nice too but I miss the upbeat Fanfare

Great episode! Intense fight and it's like every wrestler loves to torture Sakura-chan with grappling moves. -_-

I didn't understand why Jackal was easing off Sakura-chan, thought maybe was playing with her but remembered what Misaki said of her. Then after the match I completely forgot the aspect of the audience getting their moneys worth. What a class act Jackal is. Got them pumped up and excited being a part of it and that Sakura-chan could help inspire her and did so.

I couldn't help but hope Sakura-chan would pull an upset but I figured it was too good to be true. lol. Excited to see Moe next episode and see how she does.

Oh man, what kind of wrestling is this? Our local luchadoras can put a much better wrestling show than this one. Glad they just limit this to only 12 ep.

Excellent episode, a 10/10 episode for me. Superbly paced and Sakura was really put through her paces by Jackal. Lots of different moves, letting up to test Sakura throughout and entertaining the fans even more as well. All the great aspects of wrestling shown in here.

Preview of the next episode though, hmm not liking the look of the new girl but going off just a preview is unfair. Will reserve my judgement.

The poses and moaning are as sensual as ever, damn it !
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I'd like to pretend that I never started this show, or never watched past the second episode, but that wouldn't be true.
There was definitely something holding me to this that made me keep watching, and now I know it was for this episode. When you strip all the horrible fanservice away, this is actually a fascinating show. Alas, you can't strip the fanservice from this show, or we'd be left with five minutes of content.
That new ending was amazing, though. Absolutely beautiful.

I'm quite surprise Sakura never spurt out lots of blood considering those moves she received are already lethal in real life.

Thats one of the major flaws as to why this anime has lots of negative reception, people ONLY watch Sekatsuyo for just the fanservice because it's an ecchi anime and not the wrestling or the plot.

Also if people looked at the manga, they would see that it is just as the same with the fan service if not more so at times then the anime. If I could, I would go through the episodes and make screenshots and put them with the page in the manga to show it's the same exact angle.

But if people do look past the fanservice and focus on the actual story, the wrestling, and Sakura's development, then maybe people would like Sekatsuyo a lot better.

Great episode.
Jackal going easy on Sakura got a bit tiring, but it was still great. Also, "She might surpass us one day." If she wasn't the MC, this line wouldn't exist.

Damn. I want to be in a Boston Crab if it means I can get my head sit on. Jackal was in control of the whole match as expected.

I took 8 episodes, but...Roll credits. *ding*

That wasn't a very interesting fight, Jackal was just toying with Sakura the whole time. I realize that she was doing it for entertainment, but it did mean there was zero tension. Not there should be any as Jackal is the best in world.

It baffles me still how Sakura can get even dumber. An idol who trained for a few months and won one out of 50+ fights thinks she actually has a chance of beating the world champion... amazing.

Aunque Jackal dejo a Sakura lucirse un poco, Sakura supero sus expectativas. Incluso logro contrarrestar una de las movidas especiales de la campeona del mundo. Sakura tiene el mundo por delante como luchadora.
