Oh, its october. I thought it was july but shrug, 2024 it is. Hard to believe it's "only" been 2 years since the last season.

I'll be honest the last season was kinda forgettable for some reason, so hopefully they actually have good stuff this time.

Question is who is gonna face tezuka and volk. Also is it gonna be 12 entire eps just to face the german team, 5 matches each?

The last time we had a match that took more than one episode was ryoma vs yukimura at the very end of the nationals tournament, that was like 15-20 years ago lol.
And the original tv series itself 20-25 years ago.

It says semifinals, so I wonder, if they face germany in the semifinals who is in the finals? Too bad they never got their revenge against swiss, unless its actually swiss in the finals and not usa.

Spokon's theme is going further and further away, Tennis no Oujisama is now irrelevant.

I'm looking forward to seeing the animanga for Gagreko-Roman Wrestling.
