    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 210 - Becoming the Symbol of Under-18 Football

    @rangobongo: actually "Gabriel" from Giant Killing reminds me a lot of Ronaldinho, at least in looks :)

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 210 - Becoming the Symbol of Under-18 Football

    Thanks for the chapter 😊 Maybe I'm jumping the gun here, but I think this arc is about instilling a winner mentality in players versus nurturing individual qualities. A team of incredibly talented players can still play lacklustre if they are coached wrongly (aka Bayern under kovac) or fail to...

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 210 - Becoming the Symbol of Under-18 Football

    @duckydoggo I had the same. I also read giant killing where the j league clubs are fictionalised. For example Gamba Osaka is called Osaka Gunners Tokyo Verdi is Tokyo Victory Nagoya grampus is Nagoya gran palace And so on

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 209 - Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt

    The link Gin posted says enough, but when looking for team names and cities mentioned here i found this tidbit: "Aomori and its surrounding area are renowned for heavy snowfall, the heaviest among all Japanese cities, and, in fact, among the heaviest in the world."

    Bebop, joehoe... Hmm didn't think about it that way. He reminds me of Gasback from Trigun Badlands

    Isn't there a saying about walking into the dragon's ( or tiger's) mouth? Good luck Aoi, Jaap is only slumbering now :)

    @Duckiedoggo: as he is a baldy, I think more like Angelino from RB Leipzig ;)

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 204 - Fukuda and Noriko Once More

    Haha, just found out akutsu is supposed to mean "low lying land". As a Dutchman I find that rather funny as our country is dubbed "the low country". Ok akutsu is now officially dubbed "Jaap Stam" (former defender from PSV, Ajax and Man United, known as a real hardcase)

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 20 Ch. 203 - Last Request

    @petrichormus: I explained this before. Akutsu and Aoi are essentially two sides of the same coin - both are able to trigger a reaction in others. For Aku its the Conflict method (negative energy) making other people think "I'll show ya" and for Aoi it's the spirit method (positive energy) -...

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 19 Ch. 190 - Reason for Smiling

    I'm actually thinking Tripone is of Brazilian or Portugese ancestry. His first name is Rufin in the translation, but in japanese sounds like Rufino or Rufiño, which sounds more Spanish or Portugese

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 17 Ch. 176 - For Our Friend's Sake, For Our Sake

    Same outlook for both Aoi and Akutsu. Only Aoi forgets Taira completely, while Akutsu can't keep his trashy mouth shut. Two sides on one coin dayo

    Yowamushi Pedal - Vol. 49 Ch. 425 - Final day, begin!

    Final panel reminded me of an Olympic Games snowboarder. Overslept, missed a bus, forgot his coat. Still he got there on time and won the halfpipe. Pressure, what pressure?

    Ao Ashi - Vol. 17 Ch. 170 - The Skies Over at Prague

    @lisaisa: I read in Kuroko no Basuke once the expression "To hate one-self". Akutsu and Aoi are very much alike, only their energy differs. Aoi always has a positive drive, Akutsu has a very very negative outlook. Aoi wants to play the best football possible, Akutsu wants to surpass the best...

    They'll need a free spirit to loosen up Kiriki, he's too focused on himself. Maybe Otomo in and link up with Kiriki and Yuuma?

    I do wonder if the author is a fan of Liverpool also. Virgil van Dijk started in Willem II Tilburg and NAC as defending midfielder before he was turned into a back at FC Groningen and Celtic. Actually the attitude of Fukuda reminds me of Celtic coach Gordon Strachan :) After they taught him how...
