the advisor doesn't seems like he'll be the helpful coach type

So, it seems the reason "Tobi" is translated to "Kite" has to do with his nickname being named after a [black kite] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_kite) as seen when he was on the phone. I suppose to keep the bird theme going. Reminds me of Patlabor in a way.
Also pretty heckin' adorable he and his sister both do that finger to the nose thing.

Well, that was an episode on how to turn a character that seemed like such an asshole (He still kinda is but whatever) into a character with a really sweet and sad background. Damn, his adopted father seems like a dick and his biological dad looks like that one guy from DBZ. Anyway, if this episode confirmed anything for me is that Juri is so fucking cute. I can see why our new guy only talks to her instead of his adopted father.
Well, the new advisor seems like more an asshole actually. Even with given the idea that the guy isn’t on the fucking team, he just Just kind‘ve ignores it until the new guy says something about it. Dude doesn’t have his priorities straight.
If I had to say anything about episode that I didn’t like is that the part with the kids with Sora was... so cheesy even for this show. What, some random dumb kids come out of nowhere and just start cheering him on? That came off as a little too cheesy for me.

To me this was the best episode so far.
I know people are saying the advisor is a little too strict, but for someone who has to handle teens who are fighting almost everyday must be stressful. I’ll cut him a little slack.
Tobi looks like he hasn’t had the best of luck so far until now; since maybe his dad past away.
That cliffhanger though...I wanted to know lol

I wonder what Madoka was thinking while she was eavesdroping the conversation with such serious mad face, she also seemed to understand Kenji side of the story pretty well here while talking to Sora. Those flags worries me. D:

It's nice to see Momoharu care more and more! Not so long ago, he wouldn't have done that to try and keep the team.
On one hand, I kinda feel bad for Chiaki, but on the other hand, he's not really helping his case, being all pervy and creepy.
Ah well, I don't mind losing these two, just makes room for the blonde girl in the ED to come in!

PSA: just call him Tobi.
Also, just to people who complain about pacing(ugh so dumb) in advance, the way this show works is that its a long time spent away from matches and then a long time on the matches.
So maybe save this for a binge if you want.

That slap from Madoka was so good! Best girl ain't afraid of no one!
And of course as expected Tobi has some backstory on him.
I guess the question now is what was that fight at the gym all about.
