OK...this got weird with Hideto and Kohei Kokubo's "BL moment" of reunion. "Shoot, Shoot, Shoot~~" like Kouhei and Hideto are a gay couple that got their start in soccer.

Other than that, I don't know why the soccer match had to be like an inferior version of Blue Lock, it's damn dramatic as hell lols. It's like Kouhei is a dark horse, in being both cute and skilled, being able to take people by emotions being the Bishounen.

Am I allowed to boot myself out of this show? It already started bad, and is only getting worse...

WOW, never have I felt THIS MUCH CRINGE watching an episode...

Great episode! Kohei was very happy to see Hideto and thinks he continued playing all this time xD. Some BL atmosphere lol.
The team are counting on him to play for them in this match and Hideto agrees!
At first, Hideto can't score a goal but seems Nomada has been controlling the match the entire time with their formation! The enemy score 6 goals! After half time, Hideto plays better! But his shot hits the crossbar! Kohei is brought onto the field... and he is happy to plau with Hideto again! Though that isn't the case for Hideto...

Looking forward to the next episode!

Wow, I didn't expect an anime would try to do something better than being the worst animated piece this season.

Being the most cringe anime of the year.

Dropped. ez 1/10

As much as I yearn for BL, I think this anime is more like a parody of sports anime from 30 years ago, but it's too similar to the point that I might consider this a replica instead of parody. It still uses oldschool animation technique which favor fluidity and sacrifice accurate proportion.

But my attention is at Jo, he's so oldschool hot head character, shouting about a legacy of senpai in the past, and angry with everything, and love to train hard, and want everyone to invest in soccer as much as he does, has red hair, I'm not gonna say that he's one dimensional character, but in 30 years ago most anime has at least 50 episodes so they don't have a problem introducing one dimensional characters and then add another dimension later. But in this case, I don't think Shoot will have enough episode to add another dimension to Jo, and it's not just Jo, all characters here need another dimension or two. Can anyone check how many episode Shoot gonna have? This anime will only succeed if it has several cours, preferably more than three.

Is this BL? Because seeing the way those two were interacting, you would have thought they were former lovers or something. All that running around and yelling "Shoot! Shoot!" with the tears streaking down his cheeks really made me laugh. I know it's not suppose to be comedic, but it just felt so silly and over dramatic.

It was nice to see an actual game of soccer this time. No surprise they got destroyed, but hopefully this kicks their team into gear and they start getting motivated.

Holy Bajingas, this is literally the gayest sports anime to exist. Free! is fucking weeping in a corner. People are dropping this thing like flies, but I say GIMME MORE! I love the queerness. I live for the old-school cringiness. All the crying and screaming while dribbling balls around. The sparkle, the sweat, the blushes, all of it. It's my guilty pleasure. It's fucking hilarious, but what can I say? I love it.

Kohei is down bad, and I mean down bad for Tsuji. I'm eating this shit up so hard.

That's it! Behind all the cringeworthy scenes, Kohei's behavior seemed pretty familiar, although I couldn't quite remember why. He has a Yuno kind of vibe indeed, specially the psychopath aura at the end 😅

I love and respect the original shoot both manga and anime. offside, shoot, fantasista, they're great! This remake is.. disgusting. i dont hate BL. but i hate how eps 2 is full of characters overreacting their romantic atmosphere in the middle of a soccer match. FULL of pink, glitters, flowers, boys while talking at each others for something they repeat hundreds of times.. "i miss you.. run with me.. why are you sad"... just like broke up lovers in a cringe C movie. i thought it was a joke scene and some other characters would react by slapping them, but it is NOT. that is actually how the show goes. i swear i thought "oh, maybe this is a funny scene" but no.. god, im so sad..

Looks like a BL doujinshi of AOKI DENSETSU SHOOT

P. S. The kubo guy in the flashback died after that play. he died of Leukemia in the locker room after going off . The current coach was the first player who gave the news to his teammates after the game and was the most depressed..

Ao Ashi is not a good football anime, it's an "ok" anime, because football there is also hard to put up with, very poorly done.

But this one, man, this one is awful in every way.

Nothing wrong with a show being too gay in my opinion not to mention if you are familiar with Anime and Manga you should know by now it's all bait. Unless the show is actually BL it won't go anywhere.

That all being said however It could remove all the annoying glittering and sparkling scenes it adds nothing but cringe.

Will check out episode 3 but yikes. His childhood friend is ridiculously clingy. Strangest thing I have seen in an anime in ages.

Please give us something to actually appreciate about the show other than a moody MC and terrible team.

I don't mind the gayness, but it's not done very well… Ah well, I'll stick with it for the moment if only as a guilty/cringy pleasure.

Bruh. So I watched this at a con. For the first episode, everyone was kinda cringing. Like it was kinda bad. And then by episode two everyone was just like wide eyed looking like they were asking themselves. "WHAT IS EVEN HAPPENING". They were laughing though! I don't know if this anime was trying to take itself seriously, but if it's knowingly adding parody elements then I'm kinda here for it.
Though admittedly, I think they turned it up a bit much, ha hah.;;
