New opening song, I prefer the first one though this one is also good.

Pretty funny episode. Yui can be annoying at times though.

Already a new opening, okay.
Rather boring episode. The best part was Hinata about to disappear but it was just a tease. Yui's an alright character I guess, but all the terrible jokes were annoying.

As good as last ep was (even though best girl disappeared) this one was shit and felt fillerish.
I hated Yui at first but she's ok I guess.

Also suprisingly I prefered the piano OP to the guitar one.

Wow, only just finished One Outs last week and watched this because I thought I couldn't get any different and yet more baseball! lol. Oh well.

Funny episode.

Did Hinata die of a drug overdose? awww. I hope not. Glad he didn't disappear. He was funny with Yui.

That villain laugh, Yuri! lmao I also found Yui and Hinata quite funny.

Overall, this was a disappointing episode. Hinata's story was okay, I guess, with the most interesting part being that he possibly overdosed on drugs. But it all felt like a filler episode to me, and in general the comedy was a little too silly for me.

I can't figure out what style of anime it's trying to be... -- 3/5

Aw, I have mixed feelings about this ><" Bright side is we get to keep Hinata for a bit longer <3 but I also wanted him to fulfill his wishes when he was still alive and missed the catch. He was about to be cleansed from regret and sorrow :'(

Todays episode was best till now. ๐Ÿ˜‰ The relationship between Yui and Hidegi was very funny. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I thought tht Hidegi would disapear but I felt nice because Yui stopped him frm catching the ball. This made them loose the match but saved Hidegi 's life. I like the episode.

Hey, what the hell is going on in this show? I'm going to give this one more episode before I give up on it until I get a reply on what's so good about it. It seems to be really popular, but I don't understand anything appealing about it. It's not funny, the dramatic moments (the robber story, the parent's fighting story, and now the baseball story) feel very contrived and forced, why doesn't Angel just kill them all once they're in school, the characters suck... everything seems to suck so far. Also, do I have to keep listening to them sing in a band throughout the anime?? I might just have to stop watching just because of that.

Does anyone think that Yuri's plan in this episode was kind of pointless? I mean I feel like even if they won the tournament, this probably wouldn't have done anything to Angel.

Honestly im liking the anime so far but one thing that distracts me is the tone, one minute its serious then out of nowhere it gets comedic at the wrong times and throws me out of sync they have to learn when to use it and when not to some good series ive seen do this in the past are clannad,and higurashi but yea 7 more eps ill see where they take it

I guess Hinata failing to disappear was the only unpredictable part of this episode? I was expecting the same formula, and one by one they would disappear.

Other than that, this episode was nothing remarkable.

Hmm it's an okay episode I guess. A lot of funny stuff happened and Yui-nyan was cute. The flashback doesn't seem as heavy as previous episodes, seems like he got into drugs and he died overdose or something.

Also, I guess you disappear if you fulfilled the thing you wanna do like the singer girl being able to sing her favorite song to save other people.

The guitar remixed OP was well done, but with the high pitched vocals, a piano is a better matched for the OP.

So every episode, each SSS member's backstory are revealed. Seems like Hinata died because of a drug? Anyway, it also seems like he doesn't like wannabe-cute hyperactive girls like Yui. Maybe Hinata does actually swing toward guys!?

Otonashi's and Noda's rivalry was pretty amusing.
Yui and Hinata might be a potential couple... Maybe I'll ship them?

I'm still trying to figure out why is this anime is so popular. It has a nice soundtrack and funny jokes here and there, but so far it a below average show that confusing as hell. Like what the plot? Right now it comes off as a Slice of life high school anime but they're all dead. I'm going to continue to hang in there and hope future episodes get better.

They seem to treat the disappearing as a bad thing. But to me it signifies they have moved past their problems and accepted the outcome or got their wish fulfilled or something like that. But yeah, farewells are hard. I think this is going to be bittersweet show.

This episode we got little bit of backstory but didn't really move the story forward. They could have definitely done more on this episode

So far its not bad anime but I expected much more. I hope that I am mistaken but it seems the story is easy to read what is going on... Tenchi is probably not angel but same as other having something to finish that she didn't in real life, same for other NPC. Maybe even Yuri knew Tenshi in real life.

What I like the most are the songs, but I knew them from Youtube much earlier ;]

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Ahhh poor Yui, I find her pretty adorable & cute personally... Hinata almost went off and disappeared (?) Hmm, neat episode, except felt like nearly the entire time it was just them messing around, which was a little dull, for me at least.

Nice opening.

Yui is so annoying.

Halberd guy was funny.

I'm glad Hinata did not disappear. This whole episode had that tension of rising chances for Hinata's erasure.

I like the fact that they didn't go for one obliteration per episode. However, as a result this episode just felt like filler. I mean, what did they achieve?

Im reminded of how good the dub for this is. Literally one of the very few dubs I have no problems with its all good. Especially Kanade's voice, love it.

Its funny cause the voice for yuri you hear everywhere but I can only think of her as yuri so it works really well here.

Cant wait to get to the parts with more Kanade.

It was nen alright ep but was it a Filler? It feeled like one for me even though I thought that with only 13 eps there would be none.
Also I did not notice any "new information" to the plot.

Worthless episode.
The comedy got really repetitive and it was really annoying in general.
I wouldn't care if Hinata got obliterated or not. Actually it would've been best if he did because that way I don't have to keep hearing this garbage comedy from him.

Hah, that opening sequence was so creative, I loved it. It's nice how even the characters note Yui's singning needs work, much like how I prefer the previous voice of the opening to this one.

Hinata clearly had a rough life but it's interesting that absolutely nobody seem to know anything about this connection with baseball. Else why would they even let him play to begin with with the risk to him. Unless they're all assholes or just too dumb to realize it could trigger him much like how it did this episode.

Yui's fun, I like her. Her randomly tackling him right there was weird though, came out of nowhere. If anything I thought Otonashi would just throw the game on purpose so as to not risk it but I guess not. Wonder if there's something more there or it's just plot convenience.

Shiina is very cute.

Nice little flashback of Hinata's time in the real world.

Ok so, baseball game time. But before that, the switch up in the OP was really good LiSA killing it before she became big which reminds me that I was wrong on the ep 3 part with LiSA, will change that up. That wack on the ceiling from Yui too, maybe it is foreshadowing if you know what I mean.

Finding people to join the team, Hisako, TK, and Matsushita all flopped so left with the loveable Yui to join now. The fight between Yui and Hinata was so funny I was just waiting for that comically large spoon to be drawn. With Shiina and Noda, both having beef with Otonashi, when my dude did literally nothing, but I mean, they are both (sussy) bakas lol. Also, another scene that got me, this random (most likely NPC) dude they tried to recruit, irrelevant character but irrelevant characters ftw and something I just thought to point out.

Hinata has another flashback again, I think more is explained in Heaven's Door manga.

Most of this episode focused on the baseball game lol. I don't have much to say but very interesting tournament, then the final boss student council shows up, how everyone in the student council is a good baseball player is beyond me tho. Maybe it was just a collab with the actual baseball team. Also get a lil sneak peek with Vice President.

Hinata's backstory was something too, it was likely he took some drugs after losing, from that dude. I don't think that was the cause of death, and more is explained in Heaven's Door manga iirc. For him to be saved from being obliterated by Yui is kinda ironic too I suppose.

Overall fun little ep. Side comment, comments above mine are really harsh lol.
