I guess im one of the only ones who really loved this last chapter. It made me really excited that they all play against each other and that Sena is now like Shin, someone all the other teams have to watch out for. It kinda makes me wanna read a whole other series just on Sena's college season. (lol)

Only thing that I'll complain about is that I wanted to see Sena show off some crazy move and own his opponents.

Personally, i like the ending a lot. Usually mangas end without showing a flash forward or an epilogue but i'm happy that they did that here. I'm pretty sure that they might make a sequel as well because of this ending (hopefully).

I generally enjoy when a series does an epilogue.

It usually, however, leaves me wanting more, and thats what this one did.

I think another series could be done, just based on their college years. I know I would read it.

I rated the ending as Good, because I felt it was kind of rushed, at the end. I think a few more volumes would have made the ending alot better, especially if they were all epilogue volumes.

It felt satisfying but it would have been infinitely bettwer if they had either A) not had the World Tournament thing or B) Actually finished that
I mean we didn't even get to learn who the MPV was. Who got into the NFL? It felt liek he was setting up for Sena or Harima getting an NFL offer at the end but that just got lost there. I mean them not getting it is fine but I would've liked to know who did. I guess I'll just tell myself it was Panther but still.

i think panther could have won the mvp award, whether the overtime was counted or not, but still felt rushed.

but if the mangaka will create a sequel manga, then two thumbs up for the epilogue. and if that happens, sena's position as running back will be changed to quarter back - running quarter back to be precise just like clifford

I think it was good)) and made me sad that it ended... but what i wanted to see was another showdown between Sena and Panther in the over time.. to see Sena do smth awesome and own Panther for once)) then the last epilogue chapter and i would've been totally satisfied))

and ofc i want a sequel... college years FTW))))

All is Hitsuzen...

I think the World Cup arc was a little bit unnecessary..
But this was certainly one of the best series ever. And I have to say the last page gave me goosebumps.

the ending wouldve been awesome if he ended it after the x-mas bowl skipping the whole america arc or if he ended it at chapter 332.

with the ending at chapter 333, it ruined the whole thing. if its chapter 332, it would leave a cliffhanger, which if good. if it ended after the x-mas bowl, which is pretty much what the whole story is about, it wouldve left the story complete. however, 333, there is no cliffhanger, and with panther holding the trophy, seems like america won. yet, that leave the audience wanting to know what happened but already knowing the conclusion. unlike a cliffhanger, in which the audience have to think it themselves.

basically, chapter 333 ruined the story with the whole time skip and such. i was looking forward to the overtime and it ended. damn.

the only good thing about that chapter is how suzuna became mature looking (which is to my type) and how mamori became very cute (which is also to my type)

It's not important how America won - they won. There's nothing wrong with providing some closure and ending with prospects of an unknown and unfinished adventure. A cliffhanger at 332 wouldn't have been as nice.

It was an decent end to a very entertaining manga.

Personally, I think it would've been better if they actually showed the overtime match or just have it to where one team won without even having to go into overtime. When they quickly showed Panther with the trophy, it was like "Oh you don't like the tie we had in the last chapter that solved absolutely nothing? Well, America won, so shut up about it already."

Besides, the overtime was unofficial anyway. It looked more like Panther won the MVP award seeing how Sena was thinking to himself that he was going to get in the NFL so that he could face Panther.

it wasnt great but it does leave room for the mangaka to make a new sequel, a pity that the anime never got this far would have been good to see the youth world cup arc in anime form

The ending was pretty okay. I really liked how the mangaka never actually showed the end to the world cup and left you to infer that America won, but there are still alot of things I wanted to see in this series. Still even with the unsatisfying ending its was a great manga and I hope there will be a sequel.

Since when did this end? Man I haven't been paying much attention. I told myself 'Oh, ill just wait till it ends since it is probably the last arc and download it' and it already been more than 2 weeks? This is why i'm always to late to get things like links, and raws, and finished unfindable anime.... well, off to download, then I'll answer the poll...

Why, hello there!!!

it was good could have been better but it was good nonetheless.
the point of the manga was having a goal, improving to be better than your rival and it ended just like that with the crew wanting to improve even more. so for an ending it stuck to the topic and the author allows you to finish it how you see fit.

the ending it decent and good nothing more and nothing less.
