Yaayy~!! Another story development in IE GO!
I hope the director will tell more about Gouenji/Shuuji real intention of being Fifth Sector Leader. Sure, showing him sit on his throne while watching & giving an order looks cool in earlier IE GO, but... repeating the same thing for 20++ episodes!? Gosh, this is what you called boring!
Uhm, enough of my rambling...
Let's start Endou's graduation from IE GO cast in ep 28!
As usual, the story started with a little recap from last episode, when Endou called Kidou and asked him to become his replacement as Raimon's coach. Afterwards, they made a little gathering in Raimon's soccer club room where Endou bid his goodbye there. All member called him, demanded an explanation and farewell party but Endou just walked out *without explanation, of course! As all IE coach will do* which left them in depression. And that's his last job as coach : made his apprentices depressed!
I hope Endou left with cooler pose! Like... suddenly get squeezed by the automatic door, or whatever.
All member sit and hung their head, still shocked with the news. Tenma suddenly recalled all of his memorial scene with Endou. Shindou was depressed and talked about Endou in sad voice... Oh no! Shindou might be crying again! Sangoku finally said something *Yes, cheer him up, Sangoku!* with another gloomy voice *duh*. Even Kirino did the same, followed by other Raimon members...
Tsurugi was the only one who stay composed with the news and even gave cold remark about it. Hot-blooded Amagi got angry at him, but Kurumada prevented him from making any bloody scene with Tsurugi. Nishiki tried to brighten the atmosphere with some speeches while made his way toward Shindou.
Nishiki tried to cheer the others by comforting Shindou first but MAH GOODNESS he creeps me out here! It felt like he's flirting with the captain! *LOL* See his smirk!? Ugghh.. He should cheer Sangoku first. He looked more depressed! ...Wait... Sangoku and Nishiki!? Eww...
Anyway, Shindou didn't look happy with his approach, but Nishiki kept blabbering. Seeing this, Midori got jealous pissed and tried to step on Nishiki's foot to shut him up. Nishiki dodged then teased her, making Midori tried to step on him again and again and again♥
Scene changed to Kidou who was daydreaming about Endou, more precisely when Endou asked him to become Raimon's coach which made Kidou questioned his choice etc etc.
The next day, Kidou prepared a military practice menu for Raimon soccer club, since they will be sent into battlefield against Fifth Sector. All Raimon's member must comply with his harsh and tiring practices plan, while all managers were watching in concern. They must be glad cuz they don't have to take a part on that!
Shinsuke did a good job at jumping because it's his specialty. Kidou ordered him to increase the height thus making it harder to be jumped. Amagi got the same treatment. He passed the run-with-tire practice easily, making Kidou asked him to add another tire to run with. So... Kidou purposely made it harder for people to do something that's within their speciality.
They trained until night, full in exhaustion. After that, Kidou only said that practice was over. He didn't give them any praise, explanation, not even a single clap. Haruna chased his brother and questioned his act, but Kidou answered coldly. Since now he's the Raimon's coach, he can do anything as his braided-hair wish.
On the following day, all Raimon member still needed to comply with Kidou's military-fetish practice. Shinsuke got a hard time at jumping practice, which Kidou asked him to set the height taller than Shinsuke himself! He fell down and made Haruna worried. She asked her brother to give Shinsuke some mercy, but that goggled-man ordered him to keep practicing.
Man, look at Tsurugi's tired pose! He looked like a character who got injured after having a fight!
Kidou gave same practice menu with same cold treatment to them. Amagi got angry with Kidou's attitude, moreover they need to do the same practice for tomorrow too. Our cute Shinsuke said he didn't want want to come for next day practice! Goodness, didn't expect him as the very first person who said that. Other members & Tenma were surprised by his outburst. Amagi followed Shinsuke's resolution and dragged Hikaru along with him.
Those three went out from the club building while being watched by other members. Tenma chased Shinsuke (with Aoi chased Tenma behind) and tried to say all good things to make him come for tomorrow practice. However, Shinsuke refused because he has done his best, yet coach Kidou...*sob* He...*sob*
Aawwhh... Shinsuke was crying!! Kidou has made Shinsuke crying!!
Tenma tried to straighten out the matter but it just made Shinsuke more angry. Shinsuke told Tenma that he wouldn't understand his feeling, because Tenma has avatar while he only has headband. After saying that, Shinsuke ran away from Tenma.
Shindou, Sangoku, and Kurumada visited Kidou to talk about their harsh practice. Even so, Kidou didn't want to change his decision. Kurumada worried about what will happen with the team because of this. Shindou realized how he needs coach Endou, although that ex-coach rarely doing anything beside giving motivational speech.
Afterwards, the scene changed to Shinsuke co. who were having a nice dinner at 'someone's place. Amagi chattered about Kidou again, but got stopped when the shopman served him a food with OH SO FAMILIAR voice! Well, people may forget his voice... but, who can forget his HAIR!? XD Anyway, let's pretend that those man is still a mystery, because he still hide his face.
Haruna decided to beat the crap out of his brother. She went into her brother office with angry face, only to get slipped by a paper. She even blamed the paper for that! Well... after that, she read the paper which made her slipped and found out that Kidou actually investigated all of Raimon soccer club members!
Umm.. I thought Haruna wore that glasses only for fashion, but she actually used it! Or maybe it was, when she was in middle school, then use it for real 10 years later. Since she didn't wear it in her daily life, but wore it when reading a paper... Let's assumed she has far-sighted problem?
In the morning, Tenma was thinking about Shinsuke before started practicing and brought his dog too. Aoi passed and saw that Tenma was practicing without Shinsuke. At the class, Tenma tried to talk to that pikachu boy, but got a cold shoulder.
The harsh practice started as usual, but without Shinsuke, Amagi, and Hikaru in it. Midori kept worrying but Kidou kept his cool. Amagi kept chattering about Kidou with Shinsuke and Hikaru while staying at Tobi... Oopss, I mean, their usual dinner place.
It's already dark. Shindou was thinking about something before Kirino and co. came and making them talk about Endou. Wow, looks like Endou has gotten some fans here... Nishiki unexpectedly came and gave motivational speech. In contrast with his previous speech, now he was successfully able to brighten his subordinate's gloomy mood.
On the other hand, Kidou still got occupied with his work...
When suddenly someone familiar came to deliver him a food!!
YEAH!! IT'S TOBITAKA!! HE HAS BEEN BACK!! XD
Tobitaka served Kidou a food! Man, this is a scene that impossibly happened in IE first series when they're still at middle school. Not only that, Tobitaka also gave some speeches to Kidou. All people sure like giving a speech.
On the field, only Tenma, Tsurugi, and Nishiki who was present there. Soon after, Shindou and his gang came to join them. Not long after that, Amagi and Hikaru also appeared! And then... of course Shinsuke came too! Tenma was really happy seeing that. Now all members already gathered and became more determined to carry out coach Kidou's practice. Kidou & Haruna's arrival rang the bell to start their torture time.
They got the practice menu and did it without much complaint like before. Even Amagi and Shinsuke were able to finish their deadly practice menu! After finishing their practice, all members gathered to talk with Kidou, yet that man still kept his mouth shut *duh!*
Tsurugi saw some papers and picked it up, then he realized about Kidou's real intention. Looks like Kidou has made a practice plan based on his investigation toward each Raimon's player, in order to make them stronger. Btw... did Kidou really need Tsurugi to explain things for him? Can't he tell them himself? (゚ペ)
Eventually, Kidou heard my wish and began his explanation regarding this practice. Shindou felt grateful for what his coach has done and made a first bow as the captain and representative of the team. The others followed him soon after to showed their gratitude toward Kidou!
The next scene showed Tenma & Shinsuke who finally played together. And that's all!
~TO BE CONTINUE~
