Takami struggled a bit but with Haitani's assist, he was finally able to score the goal.

Probably the most okay-est chapter so far

Even though I feels like the protagonist's presence and characterization are getting weaker and weaker as if he doesn't even exist in this series

Not gonna lie, this chapter and the previous one were pretty mid for me.
I also feel like the part where Haitani became supportive was a bit out of character for him, but I guess it's fine, as we've all seen rivalry like that in Slam Dunk and Haikyuu, so I don't mind skipping it.
I really hope next week's chapter will pick up the pace again before it gets too late and gets axed.

That shot with Takami kicking that ball upside down was glorious! Here's hoping they win!

it was not bad but too simple for me

ok, the dad issue then over just because the other dude talked...

so they are just 2 players playing vs 2, hummm


i was thinking of dropping it but i will give it 2-3 more chapters...

@Zizike i agree with you, in 2025, there is so many manga about football that we are waiting for more than a mid manga...

why not for the animals thing but it's like a 2 vs 2...

i'm not really feeling the football after 6 chapters

the first match is too long for no real reasons...

I actually really enjoyed the first 4 chapters, it's just that this week's and last week's didn't quite did it for me. I do see the potential, and I really want this to be good.

Honestly this was one of the weakest chapters so far imo. Takami's backstory did little to make me care about or feel sorry for his character, which is what it seems like it was there to do. His father has high expectations and he's not living up to them, it's nothing new and wasn't done in a great way. This strategy is used up, what else can they do to get the win or hold on for the draw?

@Zizike
the begining was going well but since the match

they scored only once instead of more and then suddenly second half, one action and hop revelation...

we see where the story will go but Our MC is not struggling enough against a good player, yes he is strong but without real knowledge of football or technique, he can already be good enough to support the ace of his team...


naaaaah, don't bs me, i'm done lol
