Futsal Boys!!!!!

Apr 11, 2022

Well I managed to watch the 12 eps from this one and I found the anime was okay overall. I like the way they developed the MC, a boy who didn't know how to properly apply futsal techniques. He has some complex towards his father but I guess this is just some misunderstanding the anime didn't properly explain (I think a 2nd season would suffice my doubts, but this is because I see the urge to see his idiot father and Yamato reconcile). I liked the way they showed why the goalkeeper Taiga has stopped playing futsal, I'm very fond of characters's backstory lol. He and Nagumo are besties, this was really cute and refreshing with all these handsome boys. I found Sakaki annoying since the beginning and LESS annoying at the final episodes, the reason is because he was arrogant and a 'solo player' at first, but after that, I found him annoying because he was always stuck on the past. He struggled a lot but he is stubborn too, which doesn't made me see him in a good light. But thanks to Yamato, this stubborn one was finnally able to trust his teammates, and I got emotional again lol. I love these camaraderie between teammates in sports animes, I guess we can say it's a part of the essence in this genres.

About the animation, sincerely I find it weak. It wasn't bad, but the way they animated the characters playing futsal wasn't dynamic, some animations were really static. Most part of the show they didn't even show the characters shooting at the goal, just the ball entering or not entering the goal lol. But the good point of the anime were the visuals of course, the characters were all very handsome or very cute, this for sure is the appealing of the anime. It reminded me the times when I watched Free!, but Free! has a lot better animation. And the sounds were fine, I love the seiyuus from the characters, handsome voices are included in the pack too lol. As most of the animes, I only pay attention in the OP and ED if they're really good, I didn't find they good but they were okay.

4.5/10 story
4/10 animation
7/10 sound
6/10 characters
5.3/10 overall
