An absolute whirlwind of a final episode and I enjoyed every second of it! This series has been an absolute treat and the season finale is no exception.
I feel like this was both the longest and shortest episode yet. Honestly, it's amazing how much a team can change going into the second half. Heck! Even Musashino is feeling the pressure.
This episode was an absolute rollercoaster, but let's take a moment to appreciate Tachibana before anything else.
We finally get to learn about Togashi's beef with the promoted players and to top it all off the highly anticipated Esperion vs Musashino match is finally here!
They are really hyping up this Musashino vs Esperion match and I just really want them to play! Please take all this frustration and fighting out on the field because this build-up is killing me!
It's time for Aoi to put his offensive and defensive skills to the test.
Picking up where we left off last week, Kaneda is here and he's pushing all of the buttons. . I have a feeling that Tachibana is going to snap soon, but first... we have to deal with Aoi.
I'm glad that Aoi is making the best out of being a defender. Sure, it's not the place that he wants to be, but he's trying to improve himself so that he can still be valuable for the team.
Welp, it looks like after one game Aoi is still not feeling being a defender. He doesn't quite understand what he needs to do and is still so focused on getting the ball. Old habits are hard to break...
Hana truly is the MVP of this series. Where would we be without her? Heck, where would Aoi be without her? Probably still in Ehime playing his chaotic soccer with only small dreams of going pro.
Aoi's entire world has come crashing down in just a matter of minutes.
We finally have it!! Conversation as to why Asari and Kuroda were mad at Aoi during the previous practice match!
