Oh wow the wedding! I was hoping it would last a few more ep's before it happened, oh well. Goro needs to get beat more often. Momo-sama got her well deserved wedding.

Stupid kid is stupid. Making too much out of something so small as being bandaged up. So what is goro's goal? to become a great baseball player or to play his heart out? Because stupid kid wants to break his arm all of a sudden? makes no sense imo.

And progress is going pretty fast again. Considering the big plot twists happening so early in the series, it felt like a well rounded season. I was most surprised how Joe Gibson turned out. Momo better not die next season or i am dropping this sht.

I can understand why he didn't but he should have told them.

yeah, I think he probably grew the most out of any of the characters after Honda's death : (

Freaking Shigeno, where's Mr Gibson when you need somebody to be deadballed, even though he wouldn't be hitting. Just for funsies you know. He needs to die either way. If Goro gets a sibling, I'm going to kill someone.

Damn I love iT i repeated it 3 times... but i still love it.... GoRo shigeno....

WORST episode
FUCKING GODDAMN Fluke win, and that Mofo, Shigeno will be my eternal cursing object

ugly face = CHECK
bad joker = CHECK
FREAKING CHILD ABUSER = CHECK
EMO Old man = CHECK
LUCKY FUCKING BASTARD = CHECK

He officially became the most hated chara by me, where Gibson when he needed to kill this mofo.

btw the anime itself very entertaining I can't resist to marathon it, and honestly i cried at eps 6
but match versus yokohama is downhill and that Freaking mofo Shigeno keeps annoy me
so I give this 6/10, nothing special on critics point too honestly... hope the rest of another season better than this

I'll hope for something more while watching the the following seasons but so far no good.At least not as good as other baseball animes i've watched.Let's see...7/10 i guess.

Lol da cap! What luck!

Overally its good, I just don't like the romance developement between Shigeno and Momoko, because it just happen too fast. All of the sudden Momoko is in love with Shigeno, well if Shigeno can truly make her happy then its fine with me.

The first 6 episodes is very good as a prologue, as well as the romance developement between Momoko and Honda. I wish Honda could at least marry her and

As for the sport, all I could say is.. WOW! I am not familiar with the game, but as the story progresses, their players improve, and at the end, everybody on the team(at least for the regulars) is hitting the ball Goro pitches, well he did go easy on them, but that doesn't change the fact that they've changed throughout the story, becoming even more better character/player.

Well, the ending sucks if there won't be another season to continue where it left off, but there is another season, so I would say this kind of ending is kinda good.

Off to watch the second season! I guess the movie comes first huh? :D

Lol it reminds me of the line "it's not goodbye it's see you later" I think its from a movie I believe... good 1st season though

Pretty good first season. Don't really get the hate for Shigeno, honestly it sounds like fan jealousy and exaggeration on the part of pretty much everyone in these forums. It's pretty obvious the guy cares about Goro, otherwise he wouldn't have tried so hard to get him taken out of the game and wouldn't have gave him that letter.

Also, I think it's pretty great that Goro loves the game and his teammates so much that he's willing to sacrifice his future as a baseball player. You could say he would regret it if his arm blew out, but I say he'd have regretted even more leaving the game and possibly watching his teammates lose. I also like how their win was basically a fluke. Maybe not in that exact way, but I've seen my share of real baseball games have crazy shit like that happen.

7/10

good. onto the next season

Yea, I don't get it either, well I was like "Oh no you didn't" when he hit Goro but it was like the same when Momoko hit Goro...But then when Goro found the letter I was like "aaaahw..." And then they lived happily after.... Well I guess something bad will happen again in S2..

Anyways, I think overall this anime was quite good, the first 6-9 episodes were like heartbreaking and this show made me tear up quite a lot because of sadness and happiness.. It had some funny parts in it and the baseball was entertaining, a bit cliché but what the hell did you expect... Losing 1 game in the league and then what? I think the 4th place was fair enough with Goro the beast..

I'm still think about giving this show either a 8 or a 9... In my eyes they kept repeating the same romance/drama scenes but then with other characters and the results in general were quite unreal...

sport/romance anime done right /10

8 more seasons to go.... not that I'm complaining xD

i personally loved it, i don't really like shigeno, but meh....after watching a shit ton of anime, i stopped taking things so seriously for the most part, the deaths and sad/sentimental moments still made me tear up/cry haha i am just a big softy :P....8/10 no regrets Marathoning this in one sitting.

Man I was expecting him to blow out his arm after that. Was not expecting the move away but that's the nature of pro baseball. That was another cruel fate card.

Glad Komori was all right in the end.

Gave this a 9/10, might be a little high but I immensely enjoyed this series so far. Now for the movie.

I just finished this in one sitting and I don't regret it. There may be pacing problems here and there but overall it's a very good series. Oh, during some parts, it made me almost cry. I don't know if I'm just being too soft or it was really a tear-jerker. 9/10
Now of to season 2! I'll be skipping the movie first~ Gotta watch this by the order of release date :>

And btw, am I the only one here who doesn't want Momoko to marry Hideki?

More about Goro's team and less about Goro's parents would have been better, imo. But overall it was good.
