Will Moka ever get to fight as an equal again? Or should I drop this manga forever after I ragequitted at the you-know-what incident?
Or is it that I should have known better and kept my feminist side gagged up making sandwiches in the backroom, this being shounen, Japan, and a sports manga...? |

Looks like the story moving for Taku again, but I like some side action for the heroine and a little more info about what happen to the dark girl (her dads dead, but...).

That being said, I hope you don't mean "as an equal" as in she should be fighting a grown-up Take. That's just not going to go well in any realm close to reality... |

Argh, looks like it's going the route of
Spoiler for sports shonen cliche:
This sudden development honestly felt like it came out of nowhere for no real reason other than to execute that particular storyline. Felt a bit hamfisted, since it pretty much destroys the meaning behind the past few chapters, aside from introducing one rival.

Well, there's good and bad for all these things.
The good being that these kind of subplots are best for developing character drama + coming-of-age story, since it typically forces the 'genius' to work with the 'less talented', among other things. Stuff he's done in MAJOR, especially during the 'Seishu' arc. Bad point is that it typically slows the story's pace down significantly, as we're thrown into the usual logistics of setting up a new club, supervisors, equipment... and introduction/character development for new characters... Snd from the looks of it, we've already got at least 2 in the bag. -_-

Well I suppose he did switch some things up with the whole create club if he is going that route. Since this time instead of before with Shimizu having a love rival it's Taka this time that has one with Kure...
Plus lol @ the Moka getting fatter part... |
