| This anime somehow pisses me off with this whole "suguru mode". I mean really the author didn't have any better ideas to spruce up the whole soccer manga scenario. I feel as though if the author had just stuck through with just showing the skills of soccer rather than this drama crap about suguru being there in his head; it would have been better. Anyone else agree? Or is it me being antagonistic and just a hater. |

Hmm you do have a point there, I mean now that hes somewhat used "Suguru mode" to the fullest in this ep and probably next, for it to be used again in the future would seem repeatable but I think thats when the whole thing about being "possessed" will be further explored psychologically since it was kind of waste for such a great character to be killed of at the beginning, thats what half of the manga/anime is based around. Apart from that I thought it was a great ep, always love the reaction to "Suguru mode" <3. And omg LOOL Leonardo was like a crazed homo manic having orgasms when Suguru came "I'VE WANTED TO SEE YOU, SUGURU (heavy breathing)" xD |

| Once again Suguru mode, yeah he died so quick so this anime/manga is about. I don't really agree with you, it's interesting to watch. Before the other matches Kakeru couldn't see anything, but now he can see the field and everything. I can not move, but I can feel my brother is telling me something. It's like Suguru teaching him soccer, you know when the body learns he will learn playstyle and growing up to become a better soccer player that surpass Suguru. Isn't it usually a plot like this? O_o |

Suguru mode again. It's actually kind of creepy. And I'd like to see Kakeru doing something amazing on his own for a change. Well anyway, looking forward to next episode. |
|
| for a second there I thought Oda was the dude from Chihayafuru.............................................. |
| Suguru mode activate! Man, I wonder when this anime going to end. |
 |
| Wasn't Suguru's goal the World Cup? If enough people watch this could be around for a long time, however the national high school championship is probably good enough for the first season. |
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 |
 An additional waiting for this...and it was actually worth it. And they went differently then I thought. I liked epic Kakeru, those smirks, lol.  In the end I think it all worked well, got my wish satisfied, more Suguru, and actually a challenging game that isnt a cakewalk too. Next week being the final battle...I wonder if this anime is really ending next week or the week after at 25/26 episodes. |

| I'd be happy if the anime didn't end until 100 episodes but that's unlikely somehow. If it could somehow get to 50 ep's that would be amazing. This episode was pure awesomeness. I love seeing Kakeru in Suguru mode because of the reactions it sparks from everyone watching. The plays he did in this weeks episode were all spectacular. 6/5 for this week but since we can only vote up to 5 its 5/5. |

Anyone else agree? Or is it me being antagonistic and just a hater. Fully agree. "Suguru mode" is a ridiculous deus ex machina. Feels like the author read Hikaru no Go and wanted to make a similar football manga. But sadly it doesn't even come close to the awesomeness of it. |
| Still this isn't football ;/ |

| With Suguru on the field, they can easily score 10 goals in a match. Seeing as how they were able to score two goals in a span of 5 minutes. Kind of overpowered but what the hell, it's fun seeing him act all badass compared to his usual self. Hopefully, we'll be able to see Kakeru (without help from his brother) actually score a goal himself |
 |
| Kakeru's face just changed bone structure |
| Suguru mode saves the day. No matter what people say, this is still awesome. It is just to match the way overpowered Asuka. |

I feel as though if the author had just stuck through with just showing the skills of soccer rather than this drama crap about suguru being there in his head; it would have been better. Anyone else agree? Or is it me being antagonistic and just a hater. I completely agree. "Suguru mode" not only undermines the value of every single victory achieved by Kakeru (and, by extension, his team), it also makes Kakeru look like a pathetic player who can't do his job as a striker without getting his body possessed Yu-Gi-Oh style. |

(Terry Pratchett, Interesting Times) |
| This is the first time I wanted Kakeru to play like Suguru, b/c Asuka was pissing the hell out of me. I have the same opinion the Coach does, as opposed to everyone who keeps saying that Kakeru is been temporarily possessed by Suguru. For some reason I don't like the idea cause it would feel as though Kakeru wouldn't be winning by his own merits and skills. Every character who keeps saying "It's Suguru, Its Suguru" annoys me. Suguru is dead!! Deal with it!! I like the Coach's reasoning better. |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| Kakeru looks extremely ugly with Suguru's eyes. xD The Suguru mode does piss me off, as I knew from the very beginning of the series that Kakeru using Suguru's ability to win matches would. Yeah he has the magical feint (the Phi Trick now? Though they seemed like two completely different moves), but there's nothing admiral about Kakeru not advancing on his own. But I enjoy this series for the soccer because it's exciting to watch. Poor Yoin, though. |
| Asuka is really good but Suguru is the real deal. I agree that it sometimes feels like Kakeru should leave the job to Suguru, sit back and watch. But I think we'll have Kakeru pull off something that only he could next episode to alleviate that feeling. |
| And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be... |
| guess it finally ends next episode and i bet Kakeru probably gonna score the winning goal lol |

But you guys are right, its like he isnt the real protagonist. |
Asakurabaka said: And omg LOOL Leonardo was like a crazed homo manic having orgasms when Suguru came "I'VE WANTED TO SEE YOU, SUGURU (heavy breathing)" xD LOL. That was so.. I'd prefer the coach Iwaki's (is that his name?) explaination rather than being possessed.. |

| For people who diss Suguru mode, seriously, why can't you just accept the explanation Coach Iwaki gave you? For me I believe that it's Kakeru's latent potential that he was showcasing, instead of what he thought it was Suguru. Coach Iwaki also did said that he (Kakeru) was watching Suguru all the time, so he unconsciously know how Suguru plays. I am not saying it as a fact, but it's still a possibility. As for the face structure, his face did not change, only his eyes, became more serious-looking, anyone can do that. A serious face look different from a playful face. I just hate how people just ignore the other possibilities and went right to their own conclusion. Once more, if you hate it, fuucking stop watching it. No one want to hear your complains after 24 episodes, dude are you guys really that free to watch a show that you don't even like? From the f...ing 4th episode you should know what to expect from this show, if you don't like Suguru mode you should've stop watching. Seriously, people who want attention, keep saying that they don't like a show, but keep watching on, and just keep trash talk. I cannot keep myself calm now that people keep shitting on this anime, even after 24 episodes, with about 25min per episode, total of 600minutes, which equal to 10 hours, 10 freaking hours. People nowadays sure are free as fuuck, wasting 10 hours watching something they don't even like, just to grab attention and shit on it in public. Try to write something better, before you trash on others' effort. The mangaka is also a human, he/she doesn't know everything. If you can write better, no one will mind if you're going to trash an inferior work, if you can't, just STFU, and appreciate the FREE ANIME. It's free, yet people keep bitching, don't they know that anime aren't suppose to be FREE? If you're watching for free, STFU. Edit: YOU ARE NOT WASTING MONEY, NOR SOMEONE FORCE YOU TO WATCH THE SHOW, YOU'RE NOT FORCED TO WASTE TIME ON SOMETHING YOU DON'T LIKE, SO WHEN YOU'RE WATCHING SOMETHING FOR FREE, EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T LIKE IT, AND IT'S ALL OUT OF YOUR OWN FREE WILL, YOU SHOULD AT LEAST APPRECIATE THE WORK AND SWEAT THE MANGAKA PUT IN. KIDS THESE DAY ALWAYS TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED, FUUCKING SPOILED. |

| LOL Yugioh style. It's like Kakeru spins around in a black background, his eyes become more serious and Suguru enters his body. Honestly this whole Suguru mode is getting annoying. It's as if Suguru won those games for Kakeru. I want to see Kakeru mode before the season is over. As for the episode, Asuka reduces the goal area by positioning himself in that small gap, but he fails to cover the one flaw in a goalkeeper which is the open legs. If the keeper isn't paying attention to his legs too he'll get scored on. |

| The Strategist and a powerful defender all in one player !! The job of a regista !! Pressure times !! Kakeru in a pinch !! Suguru's words of wisdom !! Into Suguru mode !! Older brother shows how it works !! .. A magnificent play from the best "king of the field" ~ !! Running together of his genius brother !! the latent potential of a true striker !! The Game-changing moments !! awesomeness is truly spectacular !! The goal that ties the incredible game !! PRETTY GREAT EPISODE !!! |

| This episode was pure bullshit. First the incredible Asuka who is everywhere and never gets tired, then Kakeru get possessed and every fucking one starts calling him Suguru. Ridiculous. |
