L-O-N posted:Man, there no excuse for abandoning your child. Hopefully they won't hand-wave away whatever reason the mom had. There are plenty of excuses, so I'm hoping that she's being threatened with the guillotine should her trainee ever lose a game, and the show ends with a touching reunion between mother and child followed by a Russian Badminton robot killing her with a smash. I'd also laugh if she suddenly suffered amnesia and accidentally found her way into Europe, genuinely just forgetting her family.

Radish posted:If this show doesn't have her evil mom watching her play while doing the iconic Gendo pose (the one where his fingers are together and his mouth obscured) it's really missing an oppurtunity. I'd love it if she just walks up to Ayano and simply says "You're adopted." and then reveals a massive album full of random badminton children she's raised and abandoned before watching her play and assuming that pose.

Ayano really is the actual worst. Somehow worse than scummiest coach.

I'm still holding onto Badminton Orphanage owner Uchika, who has raised hundreds of Bad Kids.

Okay, now I'm expecting her to not have actually abandoned her daughter, but actually just got a job managing Connie and flies back and forth regularly, and is often too tired to play badminton with Ayano. Ayano just conveniently cuts those parts out of her flashback.

AnacondaHL posted:I love how Gaku's character story and progression is presented through off-screen implications. Everyone's actually been pretty dang relevant, even if they didn't get the screen time. Ayano continues to be horrible.

Sindai posted:Meanwhile, it turns out that in the manga all of our wacky conjecture about badmom raiding badminton daughters all over the world might actually be true, since it just revealed she has a Chinese one.

Sindai posted:They really gave it a standard sports anime ending but at least jerkface Ayano lives on. Ayano has actually gone full Goku. It's great. What a good show.

Knorth posted:She wasn't forgiven, her attempt at having a relationship with her daughter was rejected. Ayano realising she loves badminton for herself instead of just as a means of working out her anger/punishing others is part of Ayano moving on This, she didnt let her toxic bullshit drag her down. She said gently caress off, but you might still be fun to play with. For the sport.

Ccs posted:I'm nearly done with the series but there's a giant hole in the center of the plot which is how did this Japanese woman just go to a foreign country, find a girl who was good a badminton, and then just adopt her? Didn't the kid have parents? Or did she travel around from school to school asking "hey do you have any orphaned badminton prodigies I can adopt?" I think she was hired to coach them. The adoption came after.
