| It looks like not that many people care about this series on this website |

| The coach is hilarious! |
| I guess most people here like battle and romance instead of sports... In the episode, that Mai is so selfish... Though I hope she softens a little. I wonder when will the paparazzi come to play... And finally, Kakeru vs. Hibino! |

Finally Shonan! I was so confused the whole time, what exactly is the top they are referring to when saying Below top? Arent the two forwards in the below top position if the white line is the top? |

| wow i really hope they dont show the womens team again, that coach annoys me to the point where i wanna stop watching |
| Again Nana's episodes are way better than Kakeru's. I wish they would show more of her. |

Area no Kishi is a show badly done compared to the manga, hence the drop in viewership and support. I really like the first 2 episodes but everything else went downhill onward. Both Kuroko no Basket and Ginga e Kickoff!! which aired this season are so much better. Kuroko no Basket shine out of those 3. It's been a while since I got the real intense vibe from a sport anime, realistically done or not. I just can't get hype up with Area no Kishi so far. Ginga e kickoff is the superior soccer anime though. |

Mai and Seven great combination. Can't wait for Kakeru's match. |

Ginga e kickoff is the superior soccer anime though. I haven't seen the manga, so I don't have anything to compare the anime too, and I might see accident spoilers if I read it. Though I agree that I still have to feel the intensity of the anime. Kuroko No Basuke has been really good, though I think Kuroko should be able to shoot at least even if he specialize in passing and handling. I think we need more development for him, probably in the near future. Ginga Kickoff... Haven't seen that one yet, because I think the story is about kids? I don't really like seeing anime with kids as the protagonists anymore. |

| Who give a damn about what others are watching? This show might not the best show ever made but it has its own charm. |

| UGH I HATE THE NEW GIRL'S COACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on the bright side araik got thin......again :Y |

Siva said: Who give a damn about what others are watching? This show might not the best show ever made but it has its own charm. true that. this show may be cliche and unoriginal and has many elements that have already been done a million before but i think that's what makes it a good show. anyways lol, can't wait to see kakeru and the cannon kick guy go up against each other. next ep should be really good |
| Ugh, I hate the new Nadeshiko Japan coach. Second least favorite character after Dr. Mine. I thought maybe I wouldn't have to deal with that character so much when he was that idiot announcer with the knowledgeable one. And I wonder what's up with Seven's stalker? Next episode looks to be more intense soccer action...Kakeru vs. Hibino. |
 |
| I think the stalker is actually just a tabloid photographer ready to break the story of Seven's love affair with Kakeru. As for the relative merits of this show as a sports anime, I'm mostly here for the romance.... |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| I enjoyed Mai's selfishness, it was kinda refreshing but UGH...that coach smh...awful, stupid character. |
 |
| Mai so kewt! Slim Araki Ryuuichi so hawt! Lul at the perverted Takeda coach. Give me my Mai x Kakeru x Seven love triangle please |

Arent the two forwards in the below top position if the white line is the top? "Top" is the centre forward (in this case Seven's team was playing with a "two top" formation). "Below top" is the attacking midfealder (the playmaker). At the start of the game Mai played below top or Center Attacking Mid aka playmaker. Once the 2nd half started, Mai and Seven played as forwards while Isshiki played below top or playmaker. |

| Mai .. please .. fix your attitude .. it's really irritating as heck !! she's like araki at previous episodes .. that arrogance and overly confident personality that is sadly normal to geniuses . the substitute coach is stupid as f*ck . I think he's just for comedy that's all .. whatever . Tae-san is really a nice person you can rely on .. she's truly an ace on her team . The powerful pass connects to the bicycle shot ~ !! .. nice combination !! Hmm .. I think after the game I realize .. Mai's attitude to Nana's reaction sure is entertaining !! That stalker bothers me .. further events with this person could be bad . Former coach can't make plays anymore .. the delusional substitute became the team coach !! Shonan vs Enoshima match starts !! atlast , no more fatty .. bring it in his best condition !! Pretty great episode !!! |

| New coach is a pervert and Seven has a stalker. Pretty meh episode. |
| This match was ridiculous but Isshiki is sure hot and lovable. |
| Sexy Araki is back!)) don't get fat again pls! Can't get it but: girl's football is also worth watching! |
 |
| What I'm looking forward to - More of Mai and Nana's lighthearted rivalry. It was amusing how Mai would pout when Nana showered her with friendliness instead of accepting her taunts. What I'm not looking forward to - this inevitable "scandal" that I suspect will be forced in as needless drama. |
