| I think I've read two volumes so far. Just finished chapter 19. It's pretty good so far. Nothing amazing, but I'm enjoying it. |
| Finished up to chapter 34.. Its alright. Its not to my fav arc yet.. but soon.. eventually. So far it seems like a really over the top series that focus more on the development, although that changes later on :( First time it was tough to get though half of it, now it doesn't matter because I know how it turns out and its a lot better than I always imagined. |
 |
| Alittle ahead right now.. Although I might finish this series in another 20 days if I keep this interested. Finished up to vol 5, won't go into to much details because if everyone else, batman, is still behind I'll spoil to much. From my last update its getting better. The craziness is slowing down somewhat which is great, but it still has that "are they trying to be funny and normal, or funny and crazy?" tone. From rereading this series I can say I'm enjoying it more now than previously.. I'm not as concerned with the craziness with it but instead the development which is coming along, and at least for right now, not to bad. story wise they are at the 'pretend' Egyptian team battling it out and its interesting. On a side not I usually get very interested with sports after I read/watch a sport series but I never got into 'American Football' any more after getting into this series. Which to give a full explication, is almost zero. So it explains that while I enjoy the series a lot, its not something that truly excites me. |

| jumping far along... Current chapter 106, some where in vol 12-13 I forgot to mention this awhile back but I dropped this series around chapter 200 or so because of one simple fact. It seemed the series was getting so out of reality, not that it was ever there in the first place. The main point was the speed. They kept using "Speed of light" and I took it as a literal translation that they were going faster than others could see them but after rereading the series I came to understand that they meant the 4.2 barrier, if its an actual one (because I'm not sure). This realization made me re-like the series because I could make it somewhat believable instead of nonsense. I hated the fact that they were talking about the speed of light and the speed of sound and continuously breaking them and it was quite annoying from a scientific standpoint, which I took at that time. Now I am able to enjoy the series a lot more because of that. |

Turbe said: Last arc First thoughts!~~ Wow, you are really far! I'm only on chapter 65. I'm on schedule though, which is a good thing for me. I'm still liking it so far. |
| Haha yea I'm far. When I get interested in something I put my full effort into it which affects everything else around me till I get bored with it or finish it.. Such stressful tendecies.. Now I have time to get caught up with the other series that is ongoing. Last 15 or so chapters till end. In the end I'm happy with the series. Although i hated the ending arc I still like how the mangaka kept to his own rules. They through out Football rules and only choose the ones that helped the story. He never went against that and while it seemed weird about hearing plays that would be considered extreme fouls they never did become fouls anywhere in the series. series gets a 8/10 for me. I'm actually really happy that I dropped this series and than came back to fully finish it from the beginning. My score really reflects that because if it was my first time I would be going with a 5. I'm going to miss this series expecally sena. You don't see many characters that go to that extent for that many chapters till they achieve what they want in many series anymore.. Also the devil just because his wit captured me.. Till next time. |
