GL Tag is back, and it brought another false friend, "Harem". Misleading tbh. I feel tags should represent more main lines of plots.
While this series does suggest Female x Female relationships, it's never anything more than a background aspect that pops in every 20 chapters. Especially since they never went anywhere with the female relationships besides "friends".

People complaining about the GL tag being removed also had the complaint of being baited in the first place. So bringing back the GL tag isn't making things better, and if anything, should stay gone as to not bait more people.

The Harem tag doesn't fit at all. In fact, I'd say there are only two people who actually have any real interest at all in the protagonist. With it only being one person up until the last chapter.
The ending felt rushed and disappointing, with little satisfaction. Many loose ends which leave the series off with what feels like hollow relationships.

I'd rate chapters 1-50 as 8.3/10, but otherwise, 4.6/10 for how it inevitably left me feeling. I wish we could've seen more with the protagonist's dad and maybe a peek into Akira's life after all she has been through.

I just let my thoughts here for anyone thinking like me with Yuri goggles. I just can't see it here, they are all just "friends", even Akira is just a close best friend and the ending is just for the sake of no one dying around. I wouldn't call my group of bros my reverse harem when we walk around doing silly stuff either, but maybe I should, would at least make a topic for an interesting discussion when drunk^^

For everyone who wants to read a bit of a mysterious story with drama and a bit of gore, than it's good but absolutely don't go for it if you are just here for the Yuri and harem tag as I was.

Sad that this ended, felt like it wasn't supposed to end when it did. The art is really beautiful courtesy of Arakawa-sensei, but there was something about the storytelling that just felt a little flat to me - I feel like (and I haven't read the manga in awhile, so correct me if I'm wrong) the characters didn't have much personality except soccer, soccer, soccer. I understand, it's a soccer manga! And I loved it because it was one of the few female sports mangas I ever read that isn't focused on fanservice or cutesy-ness. I just felt like the characters didn't have too much depth. The manga just went from one playing field to another.

Just found out about this manga and I binged read everything in one sitting. I really like this, although the ending could've been better and there should've been at least one kiss. I like both Akira and Komako so for me it doesn't matter who ended up with Satsuki in the end. There are also unresolved plots with her dad and vice president of student council. I was also a bit upset with Michinaga's tragic death. She was also a victim of social peers and manipulation yet in rhe end she couldn't even convey how she was sorry. Ugh again, a great manga but not without lackings. Satsuki is truly an honest often dumbass amazing knight in shining armor. 💜

That ending felt a bit......sudden. And there were times the pacing could've certainly been better. But I binged the whole thing, so the author was definitely doing something right. lol

Ok so this was super interesting to me BUT I think it had ALOT of flaws mainly the final arc/GL tag

MC and First friend becoming a couple hence the GL tag ONLY made sense thx to the fucking EXTRA CH's......I think it should be illegal for GL tags to be a thing if the Main couple is only a thing thx to extra chapters which OMG were so fucking cute how they were with one another and while yes I did like akira because she showed up so often and backed up MC the author FORCED the first friend to be tied to MC thx to her curse :nyoron: so basically the way I saw it is MC and first friend are together and their 2nd wife aka akira aka the chef shows up every once in a while to cook both of them a meal since non of them cook except Akira being a chef, Then there's Miho the bitch who's apparently dating(imo) either Akira or Akira's Mom(Lmao) cause Miho goes out with Akira's mom ALOT which is wild :lewd:


Now my main issue was my GOD that final arc was so bad with Seo trying to kill everyone? like so she's just a random genius psycho path? Why did she pretend to be a good person if she liked being a bitch? the whole idea of her being so smart that she outsmarted the President and his girl was so bad and everything else after with the chain reaction of the explosion in the classroom then explosion in the gym like all of it was so ridiculous that it became a comedy to me like a real bad comedy, people say it was rushed but imo it wasn't and it was just REALLY badly written and I don't think President should have died, like MC never learned anything from his death, His death literally served no purpose for MC since she's still trying to save everyone and instead it just felt like a bitch slap too Vice President who loved him so much for saving her from that horrible teacher who scared her face......So yea I thought that whole Seo arc was a complete and utter waste and served no purpose other then being a chaotic joke :nyoron:

This series made me feel bad for Michiru since she almost got rescued and I just felt bad for her even tho she was a crazy yandere but for President I felt bad for him because I felt like he died for nothing

Either way this was a fun read but that Final arc really soured the series for me :angery: still MC and Death wife are hella cute at the end :glee:
