| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Mm, watching the more skilled players play feels like a different experience for these girls. Idk, maybe they can learn a few things or two from them. Seems like a buildup episode. Perhaps Shinonome can teach these girls to improve more. |

| it happened one summer.... ... it happened one time..... ok seriously.... this shitty art quality is a big turn off :/ |
   |
| I'm still a bit on the fence with this series. I kind of felt the way Shinonome joined was just too predictable but I suppose that can't be helped. I am intrigued by how they'll improve from here though. :) |

| Seems that Tsubasa is someone that cares more about the experience than winning. Still the effects that her words had on her teammates sure was impressive. The insight into Tsubasa and Ryou's shared past though was insightful. Despite the animosity between them it was actually quite fun seeing the team cheer Ryou on. The effects that it had on Ryou and the subtle change to her personality was nice to see. Though she may have failed the try outs its nice that Ryou realised just much having friends and teamwork can help in baseball. And with that the team is finally complete. Overall an excellent ep that did well in not just showing Ryou and Tsubasa's shared past but also show the effects that it had on both of them within the present. Im quite curious to see how the team would do now that they're in action. |

| Everyone came to cheer for Shinonome and I'm glad that she didn't let the failure get to her. At least she can get better with friends now. This series is steadily growing on me. Love the energy and I'm looking forward to the first game episode next week. |

| The Cringe is strong in this anime lol Also wtf is with this animation?!?! |

| Idk what everyone's issue is with the animation, it's fine for me. Well the teams all together now, but most of them seriously need to train hard if they want to win a game. |
 |
| Poor Shinonome for failing the tryouts, I don't blame her though I blame the writers of this show. Guess they lowered her predictably and now she will play buddy buddy baseball, how lame. Guess this series is going where I think its going after all, hmm! It's one of those let's be cute girls for sport with those heavy makeup and air head tendencies. Guess this will attract people who ain't about that life, but that ain't bad though. |

How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb --- Dr Strangelove  |
| Art is getting a little off here...well, TMS Entertainment has 2 shows, Fruits Basket and this (probably one of their smaller teams). It is superficially clear that Arihara and Shinonome are 2 ends of the spectrum: Arihara with her clear head of wanting to have fun while not being serious, and Shinonome being the exact opposite of Arihara, given that both had a face-off before in their junior years. However, the pressure and experience of years past hasn't faded for Shinonome, and Arihara gave her the push she couldn't do to herself all those years ago. Too bad the tryouts failed, but in return, a renewed spirit for Shinonome. Plus herself, finally we have the Cinderella Nine team. Even if the story is a tad slow, this ain't no bad show, but still a shovelware show from the likes of Diamond no Ace and Mix. |

| Amazing comeback by Tsubasa on the tournament. Now the team is complete. I just hope Shinonome does not put too much pressure on the weaker / less experienced members. |

| I cringed when they cheered on her and how did she not passed? didn't she carry the team? they almost won against the school's regular players and still she wasn't accepted. |
| Damn the animation is getting worse for every episode and the story also isn't great so far, it's just bland on every aspects lol, but i think i will keep watching it, it's like a guilty pleasure for me everytime watching anime like this.. |
 |
| Wow, I am glad that Shinonome as the rival only lasted one episode, as that would have got old fast. I liked how she was recruited to the team. In the flashback at the beginning of the episode, Shinonome looked supremely confused as to how Tsubasa was bringing her team back from the brink with only words, and it was a nice parallel to see Shinonome herself finally realize why it worked when she tried that same method in her own tryout. The show is decent but really hampered by bad art and animation. The character models were noticeably off this episode and were pretty distracting. |
 What's the difference? |
| I ship Tsubasa and Shinonome now Back then Shinonome was rather all business, a stop having fun guy, but thankfully now that she's in the team she's mellowed out. |

Mercuri said: I cringed when they cheered on her and how did she not passed? didn't she carry the team? they almost won against the school's regular players and still she wasn't accepted. I'm betting she didn't pass because of her initial attitude Even if this isn't the reason, the way she got silent and didn't get into details probably means they're going into flashbacks later, to solve this issue emotionally/develop the character /stuff |

| that's unfair. Shinonome failed because she was on a bad team. but i think its just plot device she would eventually join girls baseball club. although few minutes ago in the same episode, she said she wouldn't change her answer. |

| Tsubasa. <3 Loved the scene where she cheered for Shinomone. Though I gotta admit getting cheered for like that would be embarrassing. xD Glad to see Shinomone joining the group, though it was expected. The animation was pretty wonky during the baseball sequences. |
 |
| Oh well, Shinonome doesn't belong with them anyway. You belong in the moe moe girls baseball them. Hahaha! Quality is bad, but tolerable. I've seen worse. Writing is as well. It was cringey watching her play with that attitude and the girls cheering her on and stuff. Now with the girls complete, hopefully, things will get better. |
| So Shinonome decided to join the baseball team, though it was expected. |
 |
| The girls now have 9 members! last one to join was Shinonome! They are now an official club! But I think she's gonna have a headache teaching all of the newbies! lolz |
 |
| the music in this anime is so action/military-esque for a sports anime |
| I can't remember a time where I've been this bothered by animation since Aku no Hana. It's really really bad. The cuts are awkward, and it almost feels like a lagged stream. The plot is decent enough though, so I don't hate this show, it's just not good either. |
 |
| Okay finally we get all of the member in just 4 eps.. thats nice.. i thought it wil be longer... |
 |
| So, if I got it right, Tsubasa plays baseball mostly for the joy of doing it rather than for winning. Pretty understandable but now, I wonder if this attitude will clash at some point with Shinonome's more competitive one... Anyways, although the animation and art was quite lacking this time, it was still an interesting episode overall. Shinonome tends to take things way too seriously, which is understandable due to her combative nature but honestly, she really needs to chill a bit. At least, I'm glad Honoka Tsubasa was there to give her some encouragement when she needed it. Next episode, the girls will have their first match. Uhm... I wonder how the studio will handle the animation aspect... |
| I don't get it: why did Shinonome try to pro men's team? The animation really sucked this time. And this is sports show, so the animation supposed to be at least tolerable. But the characters are so cute and likeable so they somehow make this watchable. |
| Great episode. Shinonome finally joined the club. :) |
