Anyways, cool episode, I like how they treat an ultimate technique to be passing the ball to others and well Hiroto did learn how to pass the ball with such a brute force.

If Haizaki is going to join Raimon it should be before the finals against Outei Tsukinomiya.

P.S The match against Tonegawa Tousen are the semifinals? Like I said on a message before the complaints started to come in,

I can already see into the future now...people saying

"Ew the new drill smasher isn't even drill smasher anymore" and stuff like that.

I wasn't really fond of the old drill smasher because of how unrealistic it was (growing a drill onto your hand and using it to save a ball) and the aesthetics didn't really appeal to me either. For those same reasons are exactly why I really dig the new one. It's more realistic than the old one and is basically the same move but without the drill and the aesthetics are visually pleasing too. There are many hissastsus out there that are metaphorical, thats just what the new drill smasher is. Although he doesn't summon an actual drill anymore. He basically drills into the ball with a powered up punch now. Which maybe more simple, but I like it a whole lot more.
