Decent episode. Seemed like filler as it mainly revolved around Dunstan. I don't really recall it being in the manga though. Next episode picks up from the manga however. 4/5

Well, the character in the preview isn't in the current OP, which should mean new OP animation next week (FTR, I wasn't one of the people who was saying new OP animation last week etc)... That, or a completely new OP in acouple of weeks...

Yay. The subs came out faster for this one.

It was a pretty enjoyable episode. Hey, Sawamura (I think thats his name) got mentioned again.

Oh, never noticed that. I guess that means it's still acouple of eps away... That would also make a completely new second OP quite likely as well... Maybe a cover of the OP of the second or third season *shivers*.

Nice episode, awesome comeback by Dunstan.

Next episode seems interesting with that new player.

I kind of wished Dunstun would have hit a homerun just for fun.

Lousy episode. I don't care about some weak side player who probably didn't even appear before now >_>
At least the next episode seems interesting.

Even though it is more interesting to watch from Goro's perspective, it's sometimes nice to see what is going on with the rest of the team. Also, I'd much rather see the crowd upset at a side character like Dunstan than them being upset at Goro. On another note, I think that this player they are getting looks a lot like the American pitcher from the the movie. I wonder who they are getting rid of though.

Oh great, the jackass owner trades for a jackass player, this should go over well.

Not a very interesting episode. Besides the fact that it focused on a character nobody really cares about, the plot was dull and the issue was resolved in the most bland way possible.

Funny how they make the owner all evil and whatnot. Anyways, I am curious who they are going to trade . . . Although I have a bad feeling it is going to be Greene that gets traded, or Dunston, either way would be kind of sad.

You know, it's bothered me for awhile. When did Gorou learn such good English, to be able to get across his thoughts so well. Even though he said he couldn't read English a few episodes back.

Alright episode.

Also, there's no way they'd trade Greene or whatever his name is, when he's stuck in the hospital, who'd want him?
If he is traded, why?

Too bad that Greene got injured.
I wonder if the new player is a good player or not.

I think it's kind of dumb to present the Hornets' owner as stereotypically evil for wanting his team to win and make him money... That's kind of the whole point of owning a sports team. I do think he's being a bit of a jerk to the coach, but otherwise there's no need to give him all the evil looks and laughter.

Alright episode.

You can learn to speak a language without learning to read and write it. Gorou probably only cared about learning English to the extent of being able to communicate well.

Nice, solid side story episode. Seeing Dunstan make a come back and want to win it for Greene was great.

And.. I do not like that owner :).

i hoped they going to concentrate on some of goro's teammate for character development as long it won't be like they did in S4.

but...

the character they decided to focus on, dunstan, is really not the interesting and not to say, not deep enough for major characters, usually characters in major gets "goro's treatment" but in this case to do it they went through hurting other player to let him feel guilty and so on. what saved this ep from being bad is actually the pace, if the would stretched it to two episodes it will be really dragged, the fact that they did it in one episode with start and conclusion making the episode better.

and it seems the continue for the season going to be concentrate on that traded player, i'm only hoping we are not going to see keane episodes v2.

Meh episode, nothing too spectacular with Dunstan in a slump and making a comeback carrying poor Greene's dream.

I like Dunston, so a Dunston ep is fine.
I don't the owner being so "obviously evil", though. We had tons of that in previous seasons.
