 |
| not bad.. not bad at all. this one's gonna be a long one i feel. it should be good. |
| Pretty good episode I guess. It feels like a standard baseball anime, even though I haven't seen any others. |

kaaaisama said: God i loved this ep so much when i first read Diamond no Ace and, when this came up i knew when it got animated it would hit me hard and, it did ;_; 9/10 Lol I actually find it to be quite funny in the manga, I cried when watching that scene though. I love the moment that catcher said "Nice.. ball.." I don't know why but that voice totally send shivers down my spine, the tone he used is also very fitting. LiquidGold said: My first baseball anime was Major and I thought it was amazing. I really hope ace of diamond is as good. Pretty good first episode I can't wait to see their stand off next episode and what kind of pitches he does. Hopefully awesome ones like Goro did in MAjor. Goro's pitch is actually not that good. Only fastball and spiral (whatever can't spell, forkball like), only 2 pitch selections, though I understand why people find it to be epic, because it's too mainstream. A truly good baseball anime is Ookiku Furikabutte, and that's what we call a good pitcher and catcher aka battery. |

melina_putri said: mayukachan said: Oh I didn't know 4 was a large number then. XD Well, it's pretty understandable why the other two are more popular - they have previous seasons. Manga-wise, this series and the cycling one (Yowamushi Pedal) actually has been around longer than Kuroko no Basket. No mention for Ippo? Hajime no Ippo has 104 volumes. It has 1034 chapters released over the course of 24 years and is still ongoing. This manga started to be popular long before most of us had their first pimple. This manga/anime is living history, how can someone just brush it off as "the boxing one"? T__T It's making me sad. T.T Back to topic, the second episode was much better than the first. Those pitches were amazing and beautifully animated, too. And I love Miyuki, I love him for the damn *** that he is. They got him spot on in those two episodes, I can't wait to see more of him. :D Really looking forward to next episode. =) I also think this is a bit udnerrated, however it's just been 2 epsiodes and especially in Baseball, there's lot's of great anime out there, like Major, Ookiku Furikabutte or Cross Game, it's tough competition. |
| Well I already read the manga so it didn't feel that emotional to me. Still nice though. |
| This stage went quick, with a tantamount of positive reverse psychology, applied brutally where needed :) Sawamura took it well, though. Looking forward to seeing more of that Miyuki guy ^_^ Kaibutsu onslaught is always welcomed. |

I do know the name of it but it's hard to spell since I rarely type it. LOL I'm planning on watching it eventually when I have free time for an another long sports anime (Although Prince of Tennis will come first) |
| it was a good episode, the best part is its ending.. it was so emotional 5/5 |
 |
| Another good ep~ It's kinda sad this show isn't that popular... It's a morning show though, so it's kinda a given~ |
| I'm really loving this series right now |
| Great, great, GREAT episode. God damn after the first episode snoozefest didn't expect something this good. Thumbs up. |
| Wow this episode was really... how would you say... powerful. |
| Great episode. I love it! and his adventure begins..... |
 |
| Great so far. I feel like these 2 first episodes were an intro (and a good one). Now I'm looking forward to see the story begin |
| Epic pitch is epic. That episode got me right in the feels. T^T |
| YOU BASTARDS! WHY ARE YOU SAYING THIS NOW?!! ARRRRGH! ITS TOOO LATE!! AH, depressing episode. |
 |
| Kazuya is pretty awesome. Touching scene at the end. |
| goro shigeno v2 but a lot less endearing. |
| This kid is so melodramatic lmao. But the first half of the episode was really enjoyable! |
 |
| He actually had a pretty cool dad idk y but i love those delinquent hairstyles. That end was pretty sad for his friends he left behind but he is carrying them to the nationals. |
| The moment they said that they wanted to play more baseball with Eijun, I was like... Oh hell no. Hold me back. No wait, don't hold me back, hOLD BACK MY MOTHER FUDGING TEARS BECAUSE WHY DIDN'T THEY SAY THIS EARLIER- |
| The friend's tears were very "cute"!!!! |
| That was an epic pitch. Dem feels at the end! They seem like a good group of friends :) |
 |
| Good episode, ending was really nice |
| “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 |
| Nice strike! Felt emotional seeing his friends admit at the end on them wanting play with him longer, truly bro's for keeping quiet 6 months so he wouldn't regret going. |
 |
| The last scene was beautiful They’re truly good friends |
 |
| Already emotional in the 2nd episode, I have a feeling this is gonna be a glorious adventure. He has some fantastic friends. |
 |
| Strong episode. Way to go!!! |
