Alright, so Bansei is the team that has won the tournament nine years in a row, and then, two minutes later, they lose to Achiga?It’s great when the protagonists win, but I don’t know, give me something. Give me some tension, some emotion.Once again, there are too many moments that deserve more detail and depth, but the pacing is way too fast, and not in a good way.Btw, when I saw this girl, Toki, fainting, my first thought was, “Why is there another girl with health problems?", lol.

The pacing is crazy fast. They basically zipped right through the whole tournament arc and hit the national stage like a total whirlwind.

The shifting of tone is used naturally here. I loved how the tension was handled in this one. It did not feel rushed at all. We get to see some really flashy tile drawing sequences that look amazing. The mixture of anxiety and hype was captured perfectly in this episode.
