| Couldn't think of any animes too watch, so I decided to give Giant Killing a try, and omfg! This show pumps me up! |
| just wen i was dying for a football anime , i find this...im soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happpyyy..... |
| so far looks good to me. |
 |
| nice. hope i'll like it |
| Holy crap! I haven't been this optimistic about an anime series in a while, especially of of a series that is rated below an 8. He made quite an impression on me. I love how he came out late while eating a sandwich and made an incredibly bold decision. I am looking forward to seeing the growth of this team, Tsubaki especially. |

| Pretty good first episode. They even actually used an English VA to voice an English character. I already like this show. |
 |
| that guy at the beginning talking to the two japanese spectators he kinda looks and sounds like Arsene Wenger (manager of Arsenal) |

| This anime already makes me want to play Football Manager again and lead some Conference team to the Premiership. |
| Too much talk, not enough playing. Has potential though. Interesting premise. 3/5 Hope the next episode is better. |
| pretty good. I rather liked it. Did feel it was a bit fast but thats ok it got straight to the point. If we missed some important details maybe they will elaborate on them later...who knows. but for now, I like it. This is my first soccer anime, so I'm kind of excited! :) onto the next episode! |
 |
| Looks like a promising series that seems to be taking a different and refreshing approach to sports anime. Tatsumi is growing on me quickly, he's pretty cool. I think he did those sprints to determine who could consistently run the fastest times. It means he'll have a team with more speed + endurance. Looking forward to the practice match, that grin at the end was great. |
 |
| It was a bit slow but interesting start. I'm surprised that the main character is the coach, instead of an overpowered player. |
| Having watched Ginga e Kickoff and Area no Kishi, I expect this show to be just as good if not better than those two. That Tatsumi is a boss. |
 |
| ok, i'm already hooked, as a soccer fan myself :D 5/5 |

| I think I'm going to like this more than Days. Not your usual high school sports anime. |
   smell of coffee songs of sleep  |
| usually i don't mind art like this if the story is good, and that sure was delivered in this ep. i really wondering if i would be able to like a soccer sport after couple of other sport anime, but it seems to me good for now. the first ep set good setting for the series and the pace was well. |
| decided to watch this off a whim but wow that was a great first episode. the BGM was especially great, the op gives a scottish vibe. love the realism so far. as an actual football fan, i have high hopes now. |
