| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another good episode~ Win or loss, I see a future for all these teams. I loved the way most of the characters gets fired up thanks to the coach's orders. RAWRRRRRRRRRR. Looks like another face off for next time too. Eijun's face is priceless. I'm rooting for Eijun's team of course. Match begin, play ball. I can't wait to see how the match will go. |
 |
| Awesome episode, I can't wait to see how Furuya will handle that crazy guy. That anime knows how to make us so much hyped each time. |
 |
| Raichi is all about food xD So he uses a really heavy bat. All those image training! Every pitcher in Seido is aiming to take Raichi down. The coach motivating the pitchers separately! If Raichi can follow a bullet train... I am not sure on what to expect from Furuya. Both teams really pumped up for the game, liked their cheers. I would like to see Sanada pitching as the enemy ace. |
 |
| Amazing episode. The intensity and suspense build up really makes me want to watch the next episode! Hoping Tanba pitches |
| This episode has more hilarious moment than usual. Anyway for me. XD Even if I like Kamiyan a lot, I really find that he doesn't match with his character,s face.... |
| Damn cliffhanger. And they hyped the shit out of Raichi this ep, so I dont see Furuya striking him out. |
| dang yo... I've read the manga much further than the anime will/has reach(ed), and read spoilers even further beyond the translated chapters, but I still love watching this anime every week. |
| "Let's make a miracle happen using the power of friendship." "If that was all it took, there'd be no need for training arcs!" "Normal rabbits don't carry guns!" |
| That was some crazy image training. And I really love to watch Raichi's swings. It's powerful and awesome with all that whooshing sound. And that glare, haha. Seido guys are on FIRE!!! Damn, I am so hyped up for next week already!!! |

| Wow this was an amazing episode. Totally got me hyped! It was hilarious how Eijun was so hyper to get to the bullpen lol too funny. I love how Seido is just all fired up! This is going to be a great game! Can't wait! |
 |
| the hype for raichi this episode was off the fkin charts. they went overboard with the red aura and the demonic laugh thing. i mean i get it..he is a freak! 4/5 |
| the HYPE is real, can't wait for next week! |
 |
| This is going to be a great match. |
| So much hype. I'm eagerly awaiting the next episode. |
| Dat cliffhanger. Hell this is really going to be an amazing match. |
 |
| I have a feeling that Furuya will be crushed by Raichi, well, at least in the beginning; does anyone else have the same feeling? |
Kitoge said: I have a feeling that Furuya will be crushed by Raichi, well, at least in the beginning; does anyone else have the same feeling? I think yes. Thanks to the preview, hehe. But if that will be the case, I hope Sawamura will replace him again. I'm looking forward to see Raichi vs Sawamura. Plus, Raichi mentioned that Sawamura piqued his interest. That will be really interesting. |

 |
| *episode ends with Raichi's demon laugh as it should* I don't know why, exactly, but the opposing team is just. So cool. Maybe it's 'cause they're utterly bonkers and played up via RED LIGHT FROM THAT ONE UNHOLY PLACE, YOU KNOW while also not portrayed as evil or villianous or cheaters. Just a bunch of crazy losers out to be crazy winners, upsettin' the status quo wherever they go. And that's fun. |
 |
| I wanted it to end with a home-run of the first pitch. That would have been an amazing cliffhanger. |
 |
| Epic build up!! Hype! And a friggin smart idea to have Raichi 1st. This will totally ruin Furuya's confidence if he gets hit. I can't help but respect Raichi's dad. The side is Boss! Loved his Motto of being serious while training (even bunts) and having fun while playing. Respect! No wonder Raichi is a monster then with the heavy bat and the simulation batting he does. It was awesome that he couldn't figure out Eijun's pitching just from video :D Can't wait to see how he reacts to his pitches. Eijun hyping everyone and saying "Let's go!!!....to the bullpen" was lololol Kataoka is so awesome too with how he told something different to Tanba and the three others. He really knows how to pull out their best. And Eijun saying "Yes Boss" when he told him don't call me boss was lol XD Loved how all of Seido are glaring at Raichi XD |
 |
| Seido's coach is awesome, glad Tanba is getting some love as a pitcher. Laughed so hard when everyone was fiercely glaring at Raichi. Best moment for me was when Sawamura shouts "Let's Go!...to the bullpen!" He never ceases to amuse. |
 |
Kitoge said: I have a feeling that Furuya will be crushed by Raichi, well, at least in the beginning; does anyone else have the same feeling? Yep, as of now I don't have much faith in Furuya. I feel like he'll get shut down (even before I saw the preview). If he throws strategically and with good control, he might be able to pull something off. But if he makes it a battle of power&speed (like he usually does) then I think he'll lose to Raichi. That's not the way to throw against him (imo) |
 |
| Seido vs Raichi. LOL. Loved that glaring scene. XD Intense as always, and I'm glad they're sticking to the matches now. The scene with Tanba was funny. :) |
| That was such a great episode. i was so excited at the end. :D next one will be great too. |
| OMFG dem glares at Raichi EPIC!!!!!! Cliffhanger NOOOOO I want to see Sawamura vs Raichi!!! I hope Tanba plays !!! |
| Finally. My favorite fight of the series is finally starting! |

| Why did they create that cliffhanger if they were just gonna spoiler the damn thing in the preview? Not that it matters to me (since I've read the manga and already know how the rest of the series is gonna go), but come on Madhouse/IG. You can do better than that. Other than that, the best match of the tournament is about to begin. Why can't next week come no......... wait. Next week, come as slowly as possible. |

yhunata said: Why did they create that cliffhanger if they were just gonna spoiler the damn thing in the preview? Haha, that's what I am thinking too. I haven't read the manga yet up to this part and I was so hyped up with the cliffhanger. But bang! The preview spoiled it all. But anyway, still excited on how will this turn out. |
| i promised my self that i wont read the manga~ but the excitement is killing me damn~ gonna peek a little XD |
 |
| Raichi's father is an asshole. And a terrible father. |
| LETS GO! to the bullpen! LOL that part god had me laughing |
| this is probably the best series i'm watching now and one of the best sports anime to wath |
 |
| Damn, it's getting pretty intense. Too bad the preview spoiled the cliffhanger lol |
| I kinda raichi and papa's interaction. Kinda funny. |
| That raichi's laugh sounds just so fake... a bit weird... |
| HYPE This is going to be fun. I'm a lefty batter (and a righty for like everything else) so I really love watching characters like Raichi bat. He's just super into it and I'm reminded how I felt when I played softball as a kid. |
 |
| I like Raichi and his dad a lot, these past 2 episode had been a blast, the episode where Raichi appeared for the first time was quite meh though, I thought he's just gonna be the the "strong player came out of nowhere" stereotype. Well, he's still one, but he's fun and badass. |

| [i]THE HYPE!! Dying to see Furuya vs Raichi!![/i][/size] |
 |
| People watch previews and complain about them having spoilers? Pretty sure that's what previews are infamous for and hence why I never watch them ;) Looking forward to how this match is gonna play out. |
 |
| They should walk Raichi but from some anime I've seen in the past the pitchers lose their pride and shyt doing it. |
| Tanba could be the surprise in the next match!!! |
| What a shitty father... Todoroki is probably going to smash Furuya. |
 |
| I don't know if Raichi's father training is good but he should be worried if baby Raichi get injured! The bat is so heavy! |
 |
| ALL RIGHT! LETS GO! TO THE BULLPEN! Raichi is just insane for never having played baseball before Highschool and only doing extreme image training with his heavy bat. |
 |
| I love how Eijun keeps calling his coach boss Raichi got a cool dad |
