The hype on black people is so cringey ugh 🤦‍♀ I appreciate the anime changing it up to individual talent instead of just race。 Anyway best match so far!!

This one uh, gets into some race science a bit? But it's like the racist white American coach character who's doing it so I don't think it's meant to be taken as Correct or anything, it's meant to show how racist this guy is - but it is a lot。 I guess its good for a sports manga to tackle the question of race in a way that's sort of good (aka racism bad) when so many of the others ones tend to lean into racist tropes when the topic comes up at all? So uh yeah idk。 I can't believe I read all of t This one uh, gets into some race science a bit?

4 ESTRELLAS ☆☆☆☆¡ Gran tomo ! ¡ Gran culminación ! ¡ Que buen entretenimiento ! ¡ Pedazo de arte en movimiento, como si tuviera una animación en movimiento con el paso de las páginas! En realidad es el mejor tomo que he leído de la franquicia。 Es una gran historia mezclando perfectamente los momentos de humor y de tensión。 Deja una importante lección y pese a los errores de los protagonistas, con dosis de adrenalina interminable, logra un desarrollo impresionane en los personajes en general。 Me 4 ESTRELLAS ☆☆☆☆¡ Gran tomo ! ¡ Gran culminación ! ¡ Que buen entretenimiento ! ¡ Pedazo de arte en movimiento, como si tuviera una animación en movimiento con el paso de las páginas!

This volume marks the end of a major arc。 This budding saga of the Devil Bats football team started with first round squeaker win and massacre second round exit。 All of the games thereafter where exhibition matches, which culminated with close game against an American team。 Through it all, the team only got better, until it met an American wall。 A wall not built by Trump, but coached by another racist。 This story may already be more than a decade old but it's as timely as ever。 Still, the game e This volume marks the end of a major arc。 This budding saga of the Devil Bats football team started with first round squeaker win and massacre second round exit。 All of the games thereafter where exhibition matches, which culminated with close game against an American team。 Through it all, the team only got better, until it met an American wall。 A wall not built by Trump, but coached by another racist。 This story may already be more than a decade old but it's as timely as ever。 Still, the game exposed their rivals and revealed that the Devil Bats may still have some room to grow。This really felt like a good ending, this reader could only hope that story, like the fictional team in its pages, could only get better。 。。。more

Here we have the major clash between the Devilbats from Japan and the Aliens from the USA。 Hiruma and Coach Apollo finally get to meet--Deimon doesn't have a coach, so Hiruma's it--and it's extreme headbutting throughout。 The two heap abuse upon each other--Hiruma enjoying himself (of course) and the Coach leaving furious。 But even after all the hours of training Deimon clocked, it's looking like they won't be much of a match for these huge, fast, experienced American players。 And what's behind Here we have the major clash between the Devilbats from Japan and the Aliens from the USA。 Hiruma and Coach Apollo finally get to meet--Deimon doesn't have a coach, so Hiruma's it--and it's extreme headbutting throughout。 The two heap abuse upon each other--Hiruma enjoying himself (of course) and the Coach leaving furious。 But even after all the hours of training Deimon clocked, it's looking like they won't be much of a match for these huge, fast, experienced American players。 And what's behind the coach not allowing his incredibly fast runner, Panther, play in the game? We find out more about why the coach is racist and how that can be overcome。 In the meantime, Sena has to figure out how he's going to fight someone like Panther who's just as fast as he is。 。 。 。In this clash between East and West, you're definitely going to see some cultural attitude differences, but the two teams seemed to work well together when they met at the party they had in the last volume。 In this one, the coach's racism had a real edge, and it's not just directed against his black player。 Of course, Apollo seeing black players as having an unfair natural advantage is kind of laughable, and his rival of the past is drawn like a pimp, so it's a little uncomfortable。 Still, the conflict between the main characters of this issue is incredible to watch--I love how it keeps building on what happened before, with Hiruma and Apollo out to one-up each other and Sena and Panther battling respectfully。 。。。more

I love this game。 First because Sena gets some really nice progression and Hiruma gets to mess with people's mind。 But mostly because Mamori finally gets a (small) role on the bench!

If you're racially sensitive, you might want to just read the summary of this volume instead。 I think the author was trying to be sensitive, but the positive racism is just as bad as the negative。 Ouch。 If you're racially sensitive, you might want to just read the summary of this volume instead。 I think the author was trying to be sensitive, but the positive racism is just as bad as the negative。 Ouch。 。。。more

Yeah, football game against the NASA Aliens--nice story arc about Panther and how Sena wants to compete against him。 And I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching Hiruma kick ass and take names as quarterback。 GAHHH!

The racism expressed by the American coach (against both Japanese and black players) made me wince, but the volume was a lot of fun otherwise。
