Why ? Why ? Why , would you make new anime with shitter animation that the old one ?

And why can't we get a decent anime about football? First , days (episode 9 , i am looking at you) , and now this?

Lol my brothers are currently watching the first adaptation, and they told me about the voice actress, which I think is hilarious. A reboot is probably for the best, although I still want to experience the original for myself one day.

the relationships felt forced and awkward

You guys are complaining about Whistle and not mentioning the most important problem in the anime: they never take run-ups on dead balls. How do you get any proper hit without a run up?

Late to the news, but I was excited then immediately unexcited lol. Revoicing huh... I've read the manga twice cuz I really like it, although it's been a long time. Didn't know the anime sucks, it's kind of an odd choice to just do a revoice. Seems like little to no point to me. I might try it out then since I was planning to watch the anime some day.

I'm excited. Picking up that first manga of Whistle! when I was a kid was what made me love soccer again and dream to play it.
