Holy forced drama, Batman! The "no, I'm his real daughter" argument was really dumb in its execution and kind of came out of nowhere when you think of the friendship Aoi and Eve had built up so far: I'd have expected Aoi to be happy about having a sister, if a little conflicted about the whole thing, while Eve being super-confrontational about it all just feels extremely forced and a tiny bit out of character. The bit about her renewing the rivalry works for how Eve has been characterised so far, but I don't think that argument was necessary to push things to that point at all.

And then Amane talking to Aoi's mother about Eve's true identity was comically forced, as was how Aoi's mother reacted to learning that truth.

This was just a bad, soap opera mess of an episode that relied way too much on clunky exposition and flashbacks to get anywhere. It might have worked a little better if the truth about Aoi's father wasn't revealed until after Eve and Aoi's argument.

Both Aoi and Eve really have it rough huh? Kazuhiko are both Eve AND Aoi's dad? And as much as it hurts to admit this: I agree with Aoi's mother that Aoi shouldn't get involved with Eve any further.

Holy cow both Aoi and Eve are half sisters.

But....they clearly said Aoi is Amuro's child in this episode, not Kazuhiko's

They are not related, both have different parents, Eve's are both dead and Aoi's are alive

Poor Aoi tho, everyone hides things from her

Considering how rude Eve was to Aoi in the rooftop scene, I wouldn't be so sure the yuri ship was saved 😂😭

Let's not forget that coach (despite his new "title/position") is still supposed to have some "thing" with the injured golf-club-president girl? 👀

I was talking about from the girls' perspective. I'm a little surprised that Aoi's mom isn't really telling Aoi the truth about who Aoi's REAL father is. Makes me wonder why Aoi's mother would lie to Aoi like that?

Ah i see, well Eve didn't look that thrilled tho, honestly i dunno what she actually thinks about Aoi, i don't think she dislikes her but she doesn't want to get close to her either

Because she wants her to focus on playing golf, learning that the Kazuhiko wasn't her real father when she knew him since she was born, thought she lost him in that accident etc. would most likely crushed Aoi mentally, she wants her to win and also not associating herself with Eve anymore cus Eve have problems with the mafia, well not like it is completely her fault that...
The chains kinda symbolized how much of a control she has over Aoi...not the best decision she did tho, i am sure it will backfire later and even more since she lied straight to her face
Aoi has the shortest stick here...at least Eve knows what happened, everyone else knows except Aoi, she is the only one still kept in the dark and lied to for the sake of a golf tournament

That's gotta be one of the most unhinged, insane flashbacks in anime history.

hahahahha i pick up a random sports show for the first time in a decade just for the giggles and it turns out to be a soap opera, in both the good and the bad ways.

production value is close to nothing, storyboarding plays out like a freshman project for film school, but at the end it's still captivating because of how much potential there is.

they dropped the yuribaiting at the end of this episode, but i think it'll make a comeback after the girls get back at both the amawashi clan and the mafia (it'll happen somehow). but i'll be damn pleased if it doesn't. let's not settle for a "love/friendship conquers all" trope. 

let's go for gold: make it so Eve is, indeed, just a selfish bitch that only strung Aoi along to satisfy her golfing crave. her fucked up backstory allows her to be like that. 

then, have Aoi be the whole tragic heroine package: used by her family and her love interest, dead due to inheriting her just-found-out-father's illness. there's a winged golfer on the opening, after all.

do that and this becomes a sleeper hit. get that controversy talk going!

The truth is finally out. Though Aoi's mom is not gonna let Aoi learn the truth. She's even gonna do something to Eve, ungrateful bitch.

Just when I thought the golf was the crazy part, here we get this unexpected weird family reveal. At least the yuri shippers can now breath easily knowing Eve and Aoi aren't blood related siblings. Still curious to why Kazuhiko looked so distraught and entered that marriage contract.

Vaya esto se ha puesto muy intenso. Lo bueno, es que no son hermanas, por lo tanto no serían norteñas.

Wow, impressive degradation from bland sports anime into dumb as fuck soap opera!
I'm actually speacheless. It's so stupid, like all the cliches from anime blanded with cliches from moronic daily soap opera. You got perfect shitfest with iidiotic reactions, conveniently stupid adults and kids who talk like 40 y.o.
I can't believe it. Please play fucking golf to the end of the show, i don't want to know anything about this dad/daughter bullshit. I couldn't care less about this even if i wanted to!

Talk about a complicated family situation.

But, this means the yuri ship hasn't sunk yet.

so fucked up

basically Aoi got fucked over while eve's dad got screwed over and Eve was unlucky

it all makes since why eve is as good as she is and if she was to train and such she would be the best just like her dad

while sure Aoi is good she's screwed because who her dad really is with the sickness he has and of course it got passed on to Aoi....

man that really sucks and it sucks even more that Aoi's mom keeps lying and now even in the next ep trying to pull some bs with eve.....

this is a huge twist but a welcomed one to make things interesting to say the least

now where do things go from here as the only one that cant see the truth is Aoi even though im sure she knows what the truth is but still dont want to believe it
