Lmao, that was so stupid that I couldn't stop laughing. It was no bad episode, don't get me wrong. It seemed a bit more like a comedy parody episode, but I enjoyed it. And Eureka was really cute, too. But now it looks like those Ageha bastards are going to get serious.

Not a fan of this episode at all. Bored me. :x

I was starting to think we'd be blessed with a few episodes where Renton DOESN'T cry over nothing.

Also... reused footage wtf

Amused at Holland's getting foot to the face (twice, even), slightly annoyed at Norb, and meh to the episode itself.

That was such a hilarious episode.
1st off. That face Eureka made when she said "Renton..Don't drag us down." was funny. xD
2nd. The teamwork goal that Renton & Eureka did was cool too.
Overall, I thought it was really cool to watch the Gekko State play soccer and have fun doing it. (Even though most of them didn't want to)

A bit late in the series to have a filler episode isn't it?

Anyway, Hap's tackle is worth the entire episode so all is forgiven!

That referee was so totally not biased. Sure, Hap did misunderstand a thing or two there, but when they held Doggie down..

Still, seeing Holland getting stomped into the face (they could have had the decency to use the back of his head at least, or his shoulders) makes it all worth it. And he kinda deserved it, at least Rentons, for the first 20 episodes or so of being a jerk.

And Norb is really something. I wonder how he managed to slip stuff like this in in between eating and sleeping. And if he ever ask something of him, he's all mysterious. At least he answered that question. Not sure if *anybody* was satisfied by it though :P

But i do agree with Grand I liked her when she was emotionless then we would could at least move on with the freaking episodes instead of the two trying to figure each other out every episode

Pretty entertaining.
I'm surprised soccer is still popular on a planet light years away 10,000 years in the future.
In fact this doesn't feel like the future much. Some of the technology is way more advance while other things are behind. There was a pay phone in an earlier episode. It doesn't feel like they've been living on that planet thousands of years.

Hap's tackle and Renton's inability to pass because he only played by himself were definitely funny as hell. I thought Stoner's martial arts on the field irony was pretty funny as well! And Holland's dramatic entrance resulting in....nada!And how they stepped on Holland and he still had that mark while making his grand speech about winning a rematch."I stepped on Holland's face too. It's only right!" was delivered perfectly as well.

Really funny and well done though as many said it seems a bit odd to stick an episode like this so close to the end though there was a bit of development at the end for like 10 seconds. Still I would love to see a comedic soccer series like this one day Bones!

Man the soccer game was lamer than lame haha. But it did have some funny moments so it was at least entertaining.

Looks like shit's about to get serious with the Ageha Squad. I'm expecting some great fights toward/behind the Great Wall.

Nah I expect them to have lived there for some decades maybe. Not too long anyway, probably not even a century.

I was wondering why Renton kept having tears in his eyes...kind of annoying because he's such a baby. He's around 13 or something yet he cries because he can't pass? How lame.

This episode had its funny moments, but still wasn't that great :/

HAHAHA The moment the episode started I already knew what was coming and laughed.
I thought Renton was finally gonna hit it.. but still proved a failure.
Eureka was so mean and cute.. hahahaha.
The final goal was priceless though.. two steps on the face for Holland nice assist ! XD

This episode must be "Captain Tsubasa" parody, especially that flying twin shot Eureka and Renton did was directly from Tachibana twins's special move.

Holy shit, that episode was retarded as fuck. I didn't expected this at all, especially right before a change of OP/ED. Normally, you expect somekind of big important event :P

Anyway, the autor really trolled us on that one. I can't say that I didn't loved or laughed, but that was such a climax breaker... I hope they make up for that in the next episode.
