Quote:Rumor has it they learned everything they know about Astroball from [[Mikuru Asahina|"Miracle" Mikuru].
It's not quite that bad. Miracle Mikuru can't fly; the Red Stars are skilled pilots, but they spend too much time goofing around & showing off for the fans to actually play the game properly. If they treat the game like they're on the job they're not quite an unstoppable force but damned hard to beat nonetheless. The reason they don't do this on a regular basis is because astroball season is their time off. They only beat the hell out of the Wings to prove a point.
This episode also provided valuable life lessons for the Wings: Don't go bragging to strange people in bars about how you're going to "whip those commie bitches." The guy you're bragging to might just be the commie bitches' CO. And he might just have a recording device on him. You never know.
