The only thing I really liked was KAMAKURAD but even then it's probably not gonna last because Nishikage is already injured so we won't be seeing much of that after this episode.

Death Samba is fine visually but why "Death" in the name? Is it related to Death Zone? It seems to look like it somewhat but it seems lazy to me.

I don't even want to talk about Macaroni Spaghetti. It's up there with Tsuumande Goran as not really fitting anything.

They really tried to pad out the first half of the episode and it shows because a whole lot of barely anything happen until Nishikage made that fatal error of just letting him get dribbled past. I do like the use of the old Raimon defensive square tactic to counter Brazil's dribbles but...Jiraigen? Sure, it's more distraction than actually blowing someone up.

The rest is meh, as usual with most of episode starting the matches, it's always the next one that has more substance if they aren't gonna devote half the screentime to their backstory or anything.
