Thanks for the chapter!!! This is getting so exciting!!! "We have everything that esperion lacks" That line just gave chills!!!!

 

[Detoxive]

Its kind of funny when you think that this is Musashino's main team and they're lacking in skills compared to Esperion's B team lmao. Anyway, seems like Aoi is gonna have to be the one to get the team to refocus.

@Detoxive
And the manga's been pretty explicit about the gap j-youth teams have against regular ones?

Esperion has:
1. a pro team plus sponsorships that finances its youth team. they have incredible facilities in comparison to regular youth clubs.
2. an A team who are the perennial winner of the premier league, the highest division in u-18 football in japan while their B team plays in the third division.
3. a team composed of the best youth prospects in tokyo, training in the best facilities and coaches japan can offer.

While Musashino has:
1. a good ground thanks to the club's origin but they can only use half of it for an hour daily.
2. a team composed of youth club rejects but weren't good enough to get scouted by powerhouse high schools that play in premier/prince.

The whole premise of this arc has always been an esperion team that's under performing based on the expectations a club of its stature has
vs.
an over performing musashino that came out of nowhere and has won all of its games so far.

With the lack of training, surely they'll fall from lack of stamina in the second half, right? RIGHT?

You can't tell me that a team could practice only for half an hour daily and performing well throughout the whole match

 

[Arfyl]

How they develop into one unit if they're only practicing for 1 hour everyday half court

 

[axiermo]

@Duckiedoggo Stamina is the one thing you can train even without a training ground lol

 

[Petrichormus]

A team working as one unit, a playmaker, and a lethal weapon.. so is Esperion gonna develop those things in this match or are we going to see a completely different approach?

I hope for the latter but I can't figure out anything equally important as the former.. maybe football fans here can take a guess for what's about to happen?

 

[Duckiedoggo]

@axiermo considering they're high-schoolers and not even well-funded... I don't think so

except they've private gyms then yea sure

Musashino's like that football college that was featured in Last Chance U. These dudes are HUNGRY.
