I finally got around to watching One Outs, so far I don't really see what is the big deal with this anime. I will watch this though because this Tokuchi guy interests me enough to watch the whole series to see where's he going to go

So far, this is looking interesting. Though, it seemed to go by way too fast.

Combining baseball and the tension of a psychological anime? That sure seem promising.

The style of Toua is awesome. That show give a strong ''punk'' feeling. I love that.
I also love the character style. Some of them look really ugly :D

Betting 40000$ on something that isn't 99% to be a win, that's really foolish. No matter how you look at it, the batter had the short end of the stick.

ive heard of this anime everywhere this last week, its like the universe is telling me to watch it.
i found the first episode ok, the animation is pretty bad, but its from 2008 so i can understand why.
however it looks promising, i have no idea where this will go and the characters seem smart enough for now.
plus, i love baseball

Toua is a damn beast if he beats Kojima. They're betting big boy money here :O

Interesting, Toua was for sure a professional player before, I'm curious about how he ended playing there.

Time for a rewatch >:D I watched this show before having watched Akagi and Kaiji so it's only now that I notice the similarities. It's pretty much a baseball version of Akagi xD

Also, forgot how ridiculous the OP was. All dat manservice haha.

Not a fan of baseball but this was nice. My country's dub was awful, so I only managed to watch a few episodes back then.

Pretty nice start,Toua is definitely a very cool dude.

Think I'm gonna love this show.

Like Kaiji, this episode felt like it ended a lot quicker than most anime episodes. That's a great sign!

Looking forward for more of it, definitely! It's really good so far!

I don't like to see a sportsman smoking, hope he would stop soon
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

As someone who's never watched an actual real-life baseball game before nor is familiar with any of its rules save for the "three strikes and you're out" bit, I'm rather excited to have this be my first baseball anime~ I might not know much about the sport but I do like me myself some high-stakes gambling!

Toua has one of the shadiest-looking designs a main character could have lmao
I'm looking forward to the outcome of their match.

Ngl I didn't get any of the psychological parts. Funny though after the dude's monologue no one listens to him

I compared the first two episodes with the manga.

Seems that they cut down some extra moments to have a brisk pace. I wish they emphasized that Kojima was getting old and that next season was going to be his final (this plot was there in manga).
