| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- LOL, getting yelled already, Eijun? :P I have to admit that their coach is pretty tough though. Decent episode overall. Those were some epic pitches from the coach. Went right to the fence. I love Eijun's confidence though. |

| I had a feeling that Eijun was going to screw up on that pitch to fence, it was hilarious how it just curved though. I can see that Coach being a pretty awesome dude later on, and I'm liking Eijun's determination to be the ace, he's at a tough school, so it's good to see him keep on trying. |
 |
| Good episode like usual! I got three laughs out this episode, one with Miyuki, one with the 11th grader scaring him and one with the rice jokes. I feel pretty bad for Eren- I mean Eijun, but I can see why the Coach is forcing him to run all the time. Possibly because Eijun needs more stamina and to get used to the baseball life. =p Oh well, looking forward to next week! I'm actually pretty tempted to start another baseball anime to fill my void. :X Oofuri perhaps! |
| Haha so many characters in this anime are total assholes but I find them pretty likable anyways? Incredible. |
 |
| Lol Miyuki, that was actually a pretty good idea though at the same time, he also kind of attracted some attention to himself when he blew Eijun's cover. So all he had to do was apologize and he could've gone to regular practice? At least he didn't give any excuses and even when he failed (though almost! Too bad it curved) he didn't complain or give up, instead he kept his end of the deal. And of course the coach wouldn't keep Eijun running for forever, he noticed something when he saw the battle curve at the last second. Man I'm really loving the comedy too ^^ |
| 00:19 that stpdiot 02:33 wutt? no more neechan? 02:49 yay for senseineechan 03:23 ano yakyuu otaku me! 03:25 3so..? ewww 05:05 "Kakatte koi!" Joutou da! 05:29 "Ashita ga tanoshimi da na。" 06:16 "Ii no ka? Aitsu hittoite?" 10:39 "Jigou jitoku" NOOO it was too short. 7/10 for this ep. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| The coach perhaps was a little too harsh, but I guess it was for testing him. I believe he will be a badass brocoach later on. Also, his roomates are dicks (for now). Anyway, in next episode will be introduced the main girl? I thought I saw I glimpse of her in the preview. Can't wait to see Eijun redeems himself. |
 |
| That set up from Miyuki to have him get caught lol. |
 |
| Really good episode, nice to see such great friends on the team again. The feeling of seniority seems really realistic as well, much how I felt in my activity during my years. That determination =P |
 |
| Well , that is what we call non-bullshit slice of life. Great episode , though I rly hope that Eijun could make the 90 meters pitch and whoop his ass at Coach Kataoka's face. Lol. Miyuki , funny as hell. |
"Children of Japan. And those who were once children. Listen! This is not a dream. This is not fiction. In reality, your superheroes were always fighting. To teach viewers courage and the meaning of justice! No matter how many enemies there are. No matter how strong evil is. Just remember. Does any another country have so many heroes? Has any another country been protected by multiple superheroes? Stand with me, friends! Remember when you used to watch your superheroes! Once you may have given up this dream. But today, you can be a hero!" - Kaname Jouji , Red Axe |
| Another good episode. What a rough start for Eijun, it was expected for the elite Tokyo team to be extra strict but I didn't expect his teammates to be total assholes. At least the coach recognized his talents in the end and everyone seem to take seriously and work hard. Also the scouter showing her true colors was funny. |
| This episode cracked me up. There is definitely a lot of potential for cruelty (and humor) at the hands of his new team-mates :) Making his run to get in line, and being caught mid-way like he was.... that was awesome. Hehehehe Definitely plan to continue watching this show. |
| Really like the coach's personality. His toughness is probably a big reason why the school is such a renowned baseball school. Looking forward to seeing how he acts during the matches. |
| Hahaha...now those are some nice senpais he has there XD Loving Miyuki a lot :D The coach is awesome too.Dat pitch! Good to see Eijun showing his determination. The coach should forgive him soon. |
 |
| Eijun is very lucky to be allowed to attend the practice sessions. Being late then being rude to the coach! Way to go to getting yourself a bad rep. |
| Eijun is just too funny. Good episode, less drama, more comedy and focus on Eijun which was a good thing. |
| I like the chibi in this one. So cute. And Eijun's confidence really made me happy. I always like sports anime that can bring up my mood. ^o^ |
| Miyuki's such a troll. |
| Great episode! MC got trolled for a couple of times... That coach looks like a soft version of http://myanimelist.net/character/14125/Eijirou_Kashiwaba |
 |
| Man the younger roommate is an asshole. Really annoying. The catcher dude is awesome though. Not as good as last episode, but still enjoyable. |
| Eijun Lol XDDD Eijun's resolve !!! Dat throw!!!! I love his determination |
| Can't believe it has a 7.5 average so far. This is my favorite baseball series, as much as I love Major, Goro always getting injured to nerf him got repetitive. AnimeFan500 said: I love his determination This so damn much, it's what I love about him the most. Well that and being an absolute idiot. Which is why this episode is one of my favorite parts, fully believing in his ability only to throw a curveball. |
| So many trolls in this show. Even his pitches troll him. |
| Nice standard baseball anime. A little predictable |
 |
| I love how it looked like he failed, but this episode actually shows his potential as a pitcher. 90m is pretty distant and doing just a curveball almost reached it. Whoa. Hahaha. The catcher used Eijun as camouflage to sneak in. LOL. And the coach is pretty hardboiled. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| OMG WTF Eijun. He curved the damn ball and can't play baseball :O Poor moron :P |
| such a fun episode! I wished he would have made that ball hit the fence though lol his determination is superb! |
 |
| Pretty cool so far. Great humor, and I like how he's at the same time a klutz but also filled with determination. A good way to spend some time while I'm waiting for Kuroko 2 to be finished, so I can finish it without having to wait every week xD |
| Hahahahahaaha! That Kazuya! XD |
 |
| Ahahaha he got trolled hard by Kazuma. I haven't laughed so much in ages. |
| what an annoying little cunt fuck this kid |
| That is one badass coach, I completely understand him and why he did those things. Sawamura you shouldve apologise instead of giving that speech. |
| I gotta hand it to the epic soundtrack, was focusing more on the music than the actual emotions I was supposed to be feeling of the scene playing out at times. Kazuya though... He's definitely bound to be one of my favorite characters, I can tell. That certain charm, wtf. |
| Hilarious when he arrived later for the first training!!!! |
| This episode was hilarious. Poor guy accidentally curved it lol |
 |
| Definitely looks like there's going to be a pretty good cast of supporting characters in this show, which is always a need, especially in sports anime |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| prank (even slight) is already annoying for me ! |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Sad to see after only three episodes Eijun won't be a pitcher but marathon runner... I won't be surprised if Eijun gained trust issues, at least the coach was nice enough to also punish the three who fcked him over. |
 |
| Ain’t no way, I fully trusted Miyuki 💀even his roommates HOLD UP, THE BALL CURVE. Everything is going wrong |
