Overview:
Isagi is chosen as Team A1 along with Nanase and Hiori to play against Team B1, which includes Karasu, Otoya, and Chigiri. While Isagi struggles to find a way into the game, Chigiri and Hiori demonstrate their worth.
Our Take:
I always love that when English dubs want to portray someone with a Kansai accent they just make them sound country. Hearing Justin Briner do it made it that much more endearing but I like the new characters that are getting introduced. For whatever reason Isagi always struggles at the beginning of a new match. I’m not sure how this series will end but he seems less like a striker and more like someone who assists others in reaching the peak of their abilities. Which is awesome but not exactly the point of this whole experiment.
I say all that but Isagi usually figures something out and at the end of the episode the puzzle piece falls into place. I don’t know what he’s going to do but I am looking forward to it. This reminds me of a soccer version of Kuroko’s Basketball which is like Dragonball but for sports. Some of these players have some mind boggling abilities but it’s cool so I let it slide. Can’t wait to see who comes out on top next week.
