Those seniors sure are carefree but reliable and aspirational.
I have not seen enough of this manga to say if it has what it takes to survive as a sports series in Jump, but as always: I am rooting for it. It seems to be learning from Harukaze Mound's mistakes of slow pacing early on and skipping a lot of the actual matches; hopefully that is a good sign.
Natsu and Mizuhara's friendship / rivalry is nice; Natsu kind of just gives good advice. I wonder if we will see Mizuhara supporting Natsu in the future too.
I hope we see more the girls; they seem fun as well. Poor Minmin being stuck with two basketball-minded idiots lol
