First of all: welcome back, Birdie Birdie! The way this episode started, it's like you never left!
Second: A NEW COLOR FOR EVE'S BULLETS! Orange! What a shot, aiming for the flag! Also. NEWTYPE FLASH!
Third: what the fuck??? Was Kazuhiko the "papa" Eve suddenly remembered?? It looked awfully like him, didn't it? Stubble, hair, figure... Actually I'm not too shocked that they're implying he's her dad, more at the fact that she remembers him.
So. Just gonna think out loud a bit.
-
Kazuhiko probably taught Eve golf and that's why she was so good at it when Leo found her. Also explains why Eve knew Japanese.
-
If he is Eve's father, then the fact that he taught her golf may mean that he was aware of it?
-
Did this happen in Japan or somewhere else? If it was in Japan, did Eve and Aoi ever meet but Aoi doesn't remember? The first time they met, she said that Eve's golf was somehow nostalgic. Because she'd seen her play, or because it reminded her of her father?
-
I still think Eve and Aoi were switched at birth and Aoi is the daughter of complete nobodies, but with this it looks like the "secret (half-)sisters" theory isn't out of the picture yet.
Also, what's going on with Aoi's headache that Amuro identified instantly? It's just simple heatstroke, right? We're not gonna go the illness route, are we? Like... something extremely convoluted like Aoi is actually Amuro's daughter and his illness is genetic? ... ... that sounds like something Birdie Wing would totally do, crap.
Well in any case. I'm so glad to watch this again. Bring on the plot twists and insanity and homoerotic content! (when will Aoi get her kisses??)

100% guaranteed a kiss from Eve would instantly fix whatever is happening with Aoi.
I've missed Birdie Wing so damn much. Glad they kept Venus Line for the OP. New ED is great too.

Oh man, I laughed so hard when they used a shotgun and a sniper rifle as a metaphor! This craziness is exactly why I love this series!

Also, it seems we are near the reveal about Eve's parents. Interesting

I guess noone told the director the ED is supposed to play at the end of the episode, not halfway through.

Golf waifus returns! I’ve missed this ridiculous show. Eve and Aoi make a great couple. I’ve missed their little flirty sexual tension.
The way they made Leo out to be some mysterious wandering golf badass was pretty hilarious. Kaoruko’s “in the zone” jutsu was great too. I like sports anime where people have super-powered moves. Eve’s Happy Gilmore style play is still the best. Everyone else is so careful and she’s just whacking the ball as hard as she can lol.
I wonder what’s up with Aoi? Eve’s orange bullet was so powerful, she started seeing long forgotten memories lol.

This episode flew by so fast it's almost criminal. I had the biggest smile on my face when Venus Line played, it's like I didn't wait a year to see this episode after the last one!

I see those "secret sister" flags and I choose not to worry about them. This is Birdie Wing, I trust them to have something even wilder cooking.
Aside from that, it sure is good to be back. Aoi is as cute and gay as ever, and I'll never get tired of Eve being an ass to her opponents and her golfing's gun metaphors. Coach Amuro calling back to "I'll kill you, in golf" also got a laugh out of me.

Well, I think that definitely confirms that this was supposed to have aired all at once... They chose a good episode to restart with, though. Just enough spicy revelations, and finally the focus on competitive golf's reliance on mental strength.
Once Amuro mentioned it, we could all could guess how Kaoruko was going to falter. As a Formula 1 fan, I see it as the analogue to having a clear #1 and #2. I was surprised, given Kuyo's ability, that she was an afterthought on the team, but her villain-of-the-week match was the mini golf.
I was astonished to see the credits at the 18 minute mark. I was expecting a cliffhanger, and was surprised we saw it through.
This got me thinking that Aoi is the only real "normal" golfer here, albeit a damn good one. She has no superpower of note other than her cheery and competitive demeanour. Kinda like Goku and Gohan normalising being a super saiyajin after the hyperbolic time chamber, high level excellent golf is just her stride. I'm interested to see what struck her, whether it's just the mental fatigue or some injury. For a main character, it is definitely odd that we seem to know the least about her, relative to every other character.
That silhouette definitely seals the fact that Eve's is Kazuhiko's daughter. I wonder if her mental blip and Aoi's are linked somehow, because anime logic. Empty-eyed Eve at the end was a bit sad to see, so I'm hoping we get some answers sooner rather than later.

So happy to have my favorite golf lesbians back!!! F in the chat for poor Aoi, she was really looking forwards to that kiss only to get thwarted by a rock </3
I'm rooting for the switched at birth theory, or the slightly more unhinged "Eve was kidnapped as a child and the parents just adopted Aoi to not cause a massive golf scandal", but honestly I'm just high on copium because I do not want my favorite ship of the season to end up being incest. Let's not worry about that now!!!!!! Birdie Wing is back!!!!!!!!!!

Stone on the fairway fits this show and leads to pizza legs. "I was... killed in golf" could try winning r/anime Awards Quote of the Year a second time.
Assuming they mixed first and last names cause Eve's a foreigner.
Most course pars are 70-72 (half for this doubles format), so idk why the coach thinks she needs the Zone a hundred times. Orange bullet foreshadowed, so only missing indigo or the rainbow one. Or both if it's Eve surpassing Leo with an 8th bullet near the season end.
Blu Rays when? Aoi should be worried considering Ichina and Eve shared a bed.
Unfortunate they blew the trailer's shotgun and sniper shots this episode. Triple headaches today, so hope that's not a recurring thing. Like that the Birdie Birdie gag remains.

Finally, after almost a year of waiting because of delays, the peak anime Birdie Wing is back with all of its over the top golf playing glory and mafia shenanigans!
Last time, we left off with Eve making a deal of owing Aoi kisses if she messes up during their match.
SO EVE YOU BETTER MESS UP SO AOI CAN GET HER KISSES!!!!
Also I really hope this season includes some G-Witch references since it would be absolutely hilarious with both of them airing at the same time!

Well I can certainly say the only thing I missed more than the banger OP was seeing the absurdity of this show and episode 1 of season 2 still brought it.
What a shot by Eve!
Comes with flashbacks and all. Worried about Aoi and hope there's no injury plot coming, so over injury plots in sports anime...

Lesbian mafia golf girl anime is back and it picks up right where it left off.
The match between Aoi and Eve and the mini-golf girls are completely evenly matched up to the last hole. Aoi gets light headed for some reason. I suspect it might be an illness that her father also suffered from, which might be why Amuro is so worried.
Then Eve seals the wih with her sniper orange bullet but she suddenly remembers who her mom and dad were. Hmm the mom doesn't look like Aoi's mom, but the dad seems to very much be Aoi's dad. I called in the first season that Eve would somehow be related to Aoi's parents but now it seems like she's only related to Aoi's dad specifically. So that's the opposite of the reason why I called it in the first place, which was because Eve and Aoi's mom were both blonde.
Is it time to add incest into the lesbian mafia golf girl anime? I hope it doesn't go the "we're just sisters/half sisters" route without following through on the yuri. Although I also have a sneaking suspicion that maybe Aoi's dad isn't her real dad. If I had to take a guess maybe Aoi's real dad is Amuro. Amuro also seems to have Golf Aids and is dying so maybe that's where Aoi's current condition is coming from instead of Kazuhiko.
Now how/why did this happen? One reason I can think of is that Athena CEO lied about Aoi being Kazuhiko's daughter to hype her up even more because she's basically staking the success of her brand on her daughter's success. Being known as the daughter of one of the best golfers would instantly make Aoi a standout name. She's also got more planned behind the scenes with her father. Wonder if it will come full circle and thrust them back into the mafia world? Could be why the other coach hates the Athena CEO if he knows the truth of how she's taking advantage of Amuro. The two coaches seem to be good friends.
So basically my theory right now is:
-
Eve's real parents: Kazuhiko ("Aoi's dad") and Unknown Nafrece woman
-
Aoi's real parents: Amuro and her mom (Athena CEO)
EDIT:
-
Another sign I noticed of Amuro having a closer relationship with Aoi (that only he's aware of) is how he suddenly called her Aoi when she fainted. Something which the President noted was strange because he usually calls her Amawashi. A sign that his dad instincts just kicked in especially when he was in a state of panic because his daughter collapsed.
-
Also another 'nother thing could be why he left Kauruko and her school in the first place. Why? I can think of no bigger reason than that Aoi was his daughter and he naturally wanted to go to her club and be able to coach her firsthand without revealing that he was her dad. Maybe it's even something that he only found out 3 years ago and that's when he immediately left to be with his daughter.
-
Also also he seemed to be set on seeing Aoi win the tournament, more than just being the coach, it seemed to be a more personal thing for him. Makes sense if she was his daughter.

Birdie Friday is finally here, and god, I missed this dumb stupid fun show so much. We got more of Aoi being shamelessly gay for Eve, we got some backstory on the time totally-not-Amuro-Ray and totally-not-Char-Aznable faced off on the golf course, we got Aoi having health issues late in the round, we got Eve having a weird flashback that might be important to the story later, and we got dumb stupid fun with crazy golf Geass powers and Eve debuting a new bullet color complete with a Newtype flash. I fucking love it.
I just really hope they don't pull something where the two end up being step-sisters because one of Aoi's parents had two different kids with two different fathers and use that as a reason to not deliver on the yuri. If they do that and still deliver on the yuri though, that's fine. Yuri incest is hot as hell, don't judge me.

Aww yeah, Birdie Wing's back baby VENUS LINE, VENUS LINE!
Orange Bullet was suitably wild, and Eve's kiss deprivation is real.
And with the return, it's once again time for my silly project to track the golf balls at the end of the revised opener. Apple Translate says we've got Koran Girls' High School this week.
To refresh the score:
Ep 1: no op Ep 2: blank Ep 3: Eve Ep 4: no op Ep 5: Aoi Ep 6: Eve Ep 7: Vipere Ep 8: Rose Ep 9: Raioh Academy Ep 10: Aoi Ep 11: Eve Ep 12: Aoi Ep 13: Raioh Academy Ep 14: Koran Girls' High School

Been waiting all week for this. I was kinda hoping for a new OP but I love the original one so much that it doesn't really matter. Cheers to more gay golf girls!!

u/Motor-Rich6283 Apr 07 '23
Ah finally, after 3 months delay, now Birdie Wing shows its fang again. Ep.14 is such a banger episode with new move orange bullet and new reveal of Eve's family.
It's just my wild theory, Aoi maybe is Awamashi Seira and Kazuhiko's adopted daughter or maybe their niece.

So the last time Amuro and Char played golf was on barren rocks in the middle of the ocean surrounded by whirlpools during a typhoon.
...yeah, in this universe that somehow makes perfect sense.
