Hello! Can I join the discussion, guys?

Honestly, I didn't really like this episode. Or, rather, I found it rather mediocre. No, I'm not some "Ares/Orion hater", but the overall feel I have is not too different from the one I had with Ares. The South Korea team members' design is rather bland, in some case unlikable (like Lee Dong-Hyeok, Yeon Ji-Hun and Shin Rae-Won's), but I really like the bison-theme of the team, and the hissatsu are not so bad, I'm happy to see not only shot ones and a goalkeeper who tries to stop a shot. Hoping Song So-Ah is a female and not again a trap. I would be happy if there are girls in the FFI, with a more consistence presence than the quite non-existing of Ares (only three new girls in eleven teams...).

Among other things:

- Why Gouenji used his secret weapon... in the first match? Was really necessary? Kidou, are you losing your tactician spirit? It's cool, despite I don't really understand the reason behind the ground dragon, it's not so fitting.

- Even if I know that the referee's role in Inazuma Eleven is quite non-existential, I can't stop asking how South Korean rough play is accepted in a world tournament. How do they will manage to use that dangerous shoes? Does nobody makes any sort of control? Is the soccer organization in IE universe so corrupted? However, I'm having the bad feeling of a SEED-like thing. Probably Baek, Park and Lee are the new Orion version of them. I'm hoping to be refuted. Interesting the ep. 3 preview, maybe the poor Seok was unaware of their teammate (anche coach) doing, or was considered by Baek a nuisance during the upcoming match somehow. However, this could lead to a result too similiar to the vs "Ares program" (written really badly). We'll see. (Who are Yuu and the photographer? Could that little girl be a sort of new Rushe?)

- I'm suspecting Mutekigahara will be the "Zhao" of the situation, with a strategy to help IJ to win against their opponent. Hope to be a decent character.

Also, I can't really stand how there are still bad animations. Are they lazy or stupidly brave?

But the most important question: did that pull for the last three members finish? There are the result? Does someone know something about it? Still angry Ulvida isn't in the team while Saginuma is. Can't stand Goujin presence too, hoping he will be at the bench for most of the time.
