Decent ending. I was laughing my ass off at the manager the whole time. I'm like, yeah, there's no way a plan to defeat a master mindgamer with a scrap of paper's gonna work. He'll get that wascally wabbit someday.

8 overall. Didn't have a Fukumoto-class impact, but it was a lot of fun all the same.

I could translate most of the anime but I don't get what they were saying about the cheating part. Energy ball?? What is that?

Me too, but the chances are pretty low.

Although there were some decent/not so great episodes, I really think One Outs was extremely enjoyable to watch. Giving it a 8/10, maybe 9.

Edit after re-watching: OK, so I lowered the score to 7/10, maybe even 6? I love Tokuchi, but like several people have mentioned, the series mostly just showed how badass he was. No background for him, no big character development, not even winning the championship. I'm just disappointed in a way. The beginning was very entertaining with a lot of potential, but all in all, the entire series was just about The Lycaons playing baseball games with teams that were difficult to beat.

Exactly my thoughts.

Watched it at last, because I was not going to wait for subs again for a few months. Understood most of it. Tokuchi kicked ass again, and Owner is now delirious. Of course, it's his fault for trying to make Tokuchi lose. This episode didn't really seem like an ending, but they won at the end, so all is well. If only we got a second season...

Pretty good series. 8/10.

The ending wasn't very special, it was more or less like any other episode where Tokuchi pulls off some crazy stunt, which he did. There is certainly a lot of room for a sequel, which I would love to see, however I doubt we'd get one as it doesn't seem like it did extraordinary in Japan. Well, we can all hope. :-\

Awesome ending. Love how they made a sport game into a "chess" game.

Doubt there will be a sequel, madhouse rarely makes sequels.

My favorite pitcher switch stance:


9/10

Subs are out. Thanks subbers. Show is over (first season at least), and I am happy I decided to watch this show.
Thought it's going to be just baseball show, but instead, it turned into gambling/strategy baseball show. Great one.

7.5/10
It's so similar to Akagi it hurts. And damn, I just love Tokuchi.

Good ending. I won't say it would par Akagi or Kaiji but was still a great anime.

8/10

I have to admit that I started skipping the endless explainations in the manager's room in the last episodes...
For my tastes the show was a little to slow from time to time... and explained stuff that wasn't very complicated a little bit too elaborately.
But it still was entertaining to me, more so in the first half than in the second, but still nicely. And it has Tokuchi! so 7/10.

... because there is nothing better than cheaters being beaten by their own weapon.
Good last episode of awesome series.
9/10, and I still feel it's underestimation :)

I thought it was a pretty bad ending. The show ended up not being about the contract (we didn't see it through to the end) and not about Tokuchi's debt to what's his name (didn't see it through to the end). So therefore, the show was only about the obvious fact that Tokuchi is a bad ass.

I liked this show more than I thought I would in the beginning, but the show quickly stuck to a forumla and never veered off of it. Moreover, in the pas few episodes, the show just devolved into bad reaction gags and turning the owner into about as comical and desperate a villain as Snively Whiplash.

But at least it was better than Kaiji.
5/10.
