| That was a very odd and rather different episode. Where did all the energy of the previous episodes go? Sure, I understood why Sela and Iceman were subdued, but Dan was uncharacteristically pensive - he hasn't shown that before. In any event, I hope that they go back to the edginess, energy and comedy again next episode. |
| I guess they needed a somewhat slower episode to stick in some character development but looks like they'll be back into the usual pace with another match next time. |
 |
| Looks like things slowed down enough to build up to another climax. I actually kinda liked how this episode built up. Now for the next episode. |

DragonMZ said: Well it looks like the recent developments with the director and animator stuff has taken a definite toll on the animation quality. The backgrounds still look good but the characters looked really off and flat. I felt it was better than the last episode in that regard though. Regardless, I continue to enjoy this, though the decline is notable. Next couple episodes should be nice. I expect the usual happenings, plenty of teams that are all kinda silly and based around some crazy gimmick like they all wear their hair in the same style and finish each other's sentences, or they deal primarily in acrobatics. :P |

Regardless, I continue to enjoy this, though the decline is notable. I can't say that I noticed much degradation of quality on the prior episode. Then again, my focus was diverted to by the whole ridiculous bit with the horse and tiger. As for this episode, I do agree with what DragonMZ wrote. For instance, I loved the attention to detail on those wind turbines, yet Rouge was noticeably off. Back to the story, I thought it was fine as a set up episode for the upcoming tourney. The backstory on Sela was nice as was Iceman's (though to a lesser extent). I'm going to go out on a limb and bet that Dan will not run over Rouge next week, breaking the current streak. :p |

| woo ... their going to play in a place with such strong winds xD cool~ |

| Tampon shop, lol! Slower, transition episode with a noticeable decline in character animation quality, but I still enjoyed it to some degree. Aka the atmosphere is still there. I wonder if this ep was already created by the new team..

| Glad i was not the only one noticing the deficient animations. Great scenary but horrible character and ball animations. |
| Building up for the next episode I guess. Dan actually used his head ^^. Somehow this episode felt different though, hope the next ep will be another great one. |

Static said: Glad i was not the only one noticing the deficient animations. Great scenary but horrible character and ball animations. Yup, I noticed that too. It's a bit disappointing. Hope they come back to the quality in the first few episodes. |
| Somewhat of a slower episode but we got to learn hmm from preview do i see Triplets? |
| What a blah episode. I really hate when shows like this choose to try and paint mysteries around their simple characters when what's really going on is that they only budgeted out so much action for the show and had to have some filler. I despise the notion that character development is used for filler. But it's not like we really got any development in the first place. They just let us know a hair about what influences Sela, and an awkward confrontation with Falcon and Iceman that (as far as it looks) could have happened when they first met in the show. And why is there no explanation in the change of Iceman's personality!? |
| Kinda disappointed that the animation quality for the characters has lowered, but I still enjoyed the episode a lot. There were some funny moments and I loved the part where he threw the ball through the city. Tampon shop~ ;? |

| Nope, Iceman was already acting like this in the desert right after they left that town, before Dan caught the ball. |
| Damn, that was shit. |
リスト 。。 |
| next epd certainly looks promising too bad about sela's mom, one of the highlights of the episode. |
| Anyone noticed a change of vocal for the opening song? |
They see me trollin', they hatin'. |
| ^Yea I did too. It was one person instead of the normal three I believe. There was also a degrade in animation quality too. Slow episode so meh. |

| It was an Okay ep, good to see a bit more info on Iceman and Sela. Animation was a bit weird at parts though. |
 Breath|| |
| Well, I enjoyed this episode because we learned about Sela’s past and her mom. If possible, it needs to have more character development because there are too many characters. I’m glad to see cute Rouge in that episode. |
| Yeah some character development on Sela but i would like to see more on her, iceman and rouge in terms of developmnet! Overall an OK episode.. |
     |
| apparently sela's mom passed away and thats her hometown, which dan keeps calling the wrong name; and it seems that james guy is trying to lure dan into the league |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| Nice to see a bit of backstory on Sela on Iceman this ep. |
  |
| Learned something new this episode from Dan, when mishearing things just the right way one can hear Championship as Tampon shop. Bit of character development for Sela with her past and also Icemane interacting with Falcon but nothing much else. |
