Hana's a real one same with the tryout duo that made it with Ashito

this felt like one of the more slower pace episodes which if you were reading or binging this it wouldn't seem that bad but after such strong "prologue" the gears are taking the time to move again, will say im kinda shocked how heavily focused this is on their league (there's a lot of players there geez) i don't even know if we'll see any other teams in this season since the op doesn't even have any opposing team rivals like you usually see in every sports anime

I think as far as traditional soccer anime go this is what we were waiting for. Blue Lock will be cool but it is more BR, this is a down to earth real soccer story. Love it.

I have still yet to see anything exceptional, or even great. Consistently slightly above average. I like the set up for the series and the characters are solid. But nothing new, nor fantastic, is being brought to the table.

overall a great episode! we got to see all who passed the tryouts! and even a pompadour!
of course Hana is a great supporter of our MC Ashito!
5/5.

Coach Nozomi is integral for Ashito's development as a player!
In a lot of other sports anime the main character always has an ability or power that makes them OP or special, but that's not the case for Aoi.
Characters like Coach Nozomi keep the story grounded and real (when you are looking to go pro, there will be people who won't believe in your ability and you gotta prove them wrong xD).
Hana best girl!

Now Ashito have a support of cute girl who also looks after his Nutrition diet, he must show his talent proving them who is undermining him wrong. This episode was simply amazing and Hana defending her future boyfriend/husband was adorable. Now time for some soccer game!

Don't know where else to post this, but this is my first time watching a Production I.G. anime and I am enjoying almost every bit of it. I feel like this is one of the most overlooked anime this season. A shame that it had to come out during a season with so many other high profile shows airing (most of which are sequels to pre-existing series). Seriously, people need to talk about this anime more.

good ep.

classic anime logic, declare that MC who is clearly ultra talented "will never make it pro in the 3 years with the youth team" yet he was the best from the try outs and doesn't say the same of the other two who also made it in.

It's obviously just a set up to have this coach warm to him and 180 his opinion on Aoi.

The more episodes that I watch the more generic sport anime it looks and less of football to the point that you could change the sport and no one would notice the difference

So now we've finally got the premise of the show - the road to success of a player with bad basics, who may yet have the chance to shine, given a chance. I'm stoked.

I'm extremely happy that the main gang passed the tryouts. I've always wondered how these fans find time to attend practises, especially younger girls like they don't have classes or anything. Aoi's reactions are also fantastic.

Why does everyone suddenly have Nen? Togashi's entrance was hilarious lmao, he's too cool for us mortals.

Why is the coach talking smack about Aoi?? Dude, he just joined the club.

It's look like only his manager knows what's Aoi is capable of right now. he lacks physicality, techniques but with time it will get better. and when everything sync together, Aoi will be unstoppable.

This is an amazing sports anime masterpiece, which opened up and increased my knowledge, especially in terms of football, now I as an observer found Ashito in Trent Alexander Arnold (an English footballer) playing for the Liverpool club, before I didn't really mind it, but after seeing this anime I feel that my view of football is the same as the character "Anri" in this anime which is oriented towards strengthening the midfield, and now I know how strong the influence of a wing defender who can play at different levels is. Currently, even according to what is in this anime, Liverpool and Trent Alexander Arnold show their fangs with the playing style shown in this anime, so in my opinion "this is a very amazing anime, which can change your view of football, 10/10 "I hope to deliver the next season as soon as possible. Thank You.

Well, the cast is beginning to form around Aoi now! I like a lot of them so far, even the biker gang defender who showed up late. Seeing Aoi react to his new dorm was a treat, and so was getting a glimpse of the senior team! I find Hana annoying, though; she's so obviously the love interest and I don't know how necessary that really is for this show. The less focus is given to her, the better.

Lol Ashito’s roommate getting dropped off by a biker gang was lowkey funny af. You can tell this episode is really setting up a tense match next episode. Also nice to see Hana become Ashitos first real fan is gonna play a big motivational role for him if he heard her. This anime is getting better every episode. Sucks we gotta wait weekly for it, that too it’s only 12 episodes…
