hi, i want to ask. is there any romance in this manga? i just read ao ashi and the romance threw me out so bad...
yes there is a bit of it but it’s not the main focus! the mc does have a few girls chasing him and he’s dense to their attraction to him but it’s kind of just thrown in there at the end imo
there is wayyy more of a focus on friendship and his rivalry with his childhood friend
Hi, did you read Ace of diamonds act ii yet?
Not trying to criticize you or anything I'm just really curious if you think the ending of this story is better, because I really love Ace of diamonds (=・ω・=)
Yesss I’m the biggest Ace of Diamond fan! Which is why im so critical of it I think haha… I mean, AoD didn’t really get to end I think; it felt very rushed imo. All of the buildup to Koushien and we didn’t get to see it all or how Eiji or Furuya would perform in their pro careers (tho you can guess ofc). I just like that this manga gives more closure! The characters clearly have their goals set for the future and you can imagine them as pro players better heh
Ohh yess I kind of get it
we were robbed of Ace of Diamond’s true ending…. *sobs*
True haha...thanks for the explanation though, time to start reading new sports manga now then (≧∀≦)
yeah no problem! in the end it’s still a manga i love and am eager to talk abt haha. as of right now, nothing tops of Ace of Diamond in terms of baseball manga imo… Hopefully more sports manga gems pop up! :DD
A prodigy soccer player whose flame has been snuffed out sparks once again. Really dramatic the start. MC breaks his legs? From a fall down a stairwell. I liked the manga's small details in demonstrating the MC's character. Like how he always holds onto the railing in case of a fall. It starts becoming more about soccer after the beginning of the manga. It isn't like Ao Ashi, but I do think this soccer manga is on par with it. Loved the intensity of the soccer matches. Also, the teammates' characters? So well done. Ultimately, this is an absolute gem of a sports manga. Loved, loved, LOVED the action! The ending is a little abrupt, though. I wish we could have seen the MC's pro arc, but it did leave me feeling hopeful. It provided a little glimpse into the characters' future. Compared to other sports manga *cough* Ace of Diamond *cough*, the ending to this isn't so bad. One of the best sports manga out there!!
