guessmonster this is your fault

Not my favorite in the world but

but Shidou

is a very naughty boy and I love him.

Also Noel Noa is bae

oh trevenant you're to blame too

So, not the biggest Isagi fan, but

he's cute off the pitch. On the pitch I'm just 'okay, whatever puzzle-man'

Bachira and Chigiri are great

Barou was annoying until Isagi started to 'devour' him, and them his obsession coughcrushcough on Isagi is cute.

Not a fan of Reo and Nagi, if I'm honest. Nagi's more interesting away from Reo.

Kaiser and Ness are sad assholes who need hugs.

and lots of therapy.

The Striker Masters were good additions to the cast. To varying degrees they care about their charges.

Snuffy and Noel are my favorite of the five of them. Loki, despite being introduced first, has had the least amount of screen time, so I haven't really made up my mind about him as a mentor.

Snuffy>Noel>Lavinho>Chris Prince in terms of who's the most effective mentor.

All of them being good.

Make noa

/catches up reading whole thing in a second

I love Loki so much for the sole purpose of his interactions w Charles

Snuffy is so underrated

I love all your takes. Tho I do love me some. I like toxic stuff like Reo and Ness more

I like nagi because he’s the reason I got into this mess lol

Barou and Nagi crack me up

Isagi off pitch is definitely what makes me love Isagi so much as an Isagi player lmfao but then again I play plenty others too so I’m just like yes

trevenant: Nagi is ... an experience

Also me noticing I didn’t finish I love me some nagireo sentence

guessmonster: Yeah, I feel like I missed some interaction between Julien and Charles, which I'm guessing was some extras in the collected books. But that's fine.

trevenant: Nagi's design is A+

but him 'getting back together with Reo' has hurt his interest for me, because he's

well, such a sub for Reo.

Like, in a pet way. I am glad that it's shown in universe with his performance suffering because of it.

I do wish the toxicness between Nagi and Reo was explored more, actually, like Ness and Kaiser.

I am not too far into the Nagi manga but I assume
It is there. Reo is definitely more unhinged than we even get from the main series
