lulz know what happens from manga is blah-ish for me for this but still, good depiction of atobe vs. Irie, even though Irie didn't say his line, "kidding" I think it is. Instead just says by subs at least, "oh you noticed."
I'm kinda mad, was hoping to see Oni crap on his opponent this episode instead of next one D:

This episode was just how i wanted it or even better! finally they did everything right!
i love that they included moments with Tezuka and Atobe that weren't in the manga. The snow was a brilliant side-effect. So romantic x33

The whole season I was waiting for this episode, and it didn't let me down! The animation was perfect, I think they wasted all the budget of the season on that episode xD
But it's okay because I adore Atobe and his willpower, and he was amazing in this episode! Definitely one of my favorite episodes so far.
Also - Fujiiii don't cry :<

Atobe was amazing. My respect for him increased.

Not enough Kaido, ever. :|

I'm still bothered by the fact that Oni looks like he's freakin' 40.

Well I don't think that's Ryoma. I you look carefully the guy in the photo is taller.
Man, Keigo's hardworking was the best. Love you forever Keigo! *-*
I just can't believe that he used to be bullied. That shocked me 0.0'
Although Irie's a sadist, I still like him ^^

I love watching Atobe play because he doesn't have those impossible-to-play special moves or the doors to god-like playing. He just plays and uses his own wits and strategies.

Irie is a good player too.

Oh, and yeah Fuji crying? I'll be crying too.

Irie is a tricky opponent. Atobe gains x-ray vision. Fantastic episode though, the animation was flawless and so was the soundtrack! This is why Atobe is one of my fave characters in the show. Really liked seeing him get all fired up for his promise to Tezuka and for the team.

Fuji crying.. ;_; ouch, this one hurt. All the TezuFuji feels, I swear.
