New op and ed this episode. Definitely prefer the first ones to these, they were much more upbeat. Sucks they lost, but no shame in their game. Now the war over Kasumi can really begin...

The song of the first opening was great, but I like this new opening overall.



Katsuhiko seems a pretty good watcher in base-ball and other things.
The match was nice, but I'm glad the competition ended for their school, now...

5/5 Let's make place to a new type of competition !

"Wonder how the show would turn out if Shin-chan was the protagonist. " We can only dream of it... I would have watched it for sure!

These OP and ED are so lame, some of the worst ones I've ever seen in the anime industry. Can't believe we are stuck with them for 20 episodes

Just as I feared - Takasugi got distracted and had let a run

Holy shit. What is that OP? It's like an OP for a movie that you watch once and never again. I don't like the excessive focus on Katsuhiko in the airport and the tragic song accompanying it. Am I really supposed to feel bad about this character who was basically non-existent for almost the majority of the show till now? The ED is fine I guess but it reuses animation of Kasumi a bit too much. It reminds me of Touch ED1 and 2.
I'm gonna miss the old OP and ED so bad. They were barely animated but it was the songs that made up for them. I wonder if it was because of the animators working on Touch that they didn't work for the first OP and ED much?

It sucks they lost. Can't say I didn't expect it. But the match was really exhilarating. Mikimoto Shin actually got serious for a bit and it was fun to watch him along with Takasugi. Wonder how the show would turn out if Shin-chan was the protagonist.
I wonder if the players will go back to their old clubs now that the baseball arc is over. Since Katsuhiko is the type of guy who's into baseball, I assume we'll probably get more baseball so the two lovebirds can fight it off somehow.
