| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Heh, Furuya got hyped seeing Sawamura on the field. This episode carried a thirst again for the players to prove themselves. A lot of people seems to be keeping Sawamura in their minds now. Interesting. |
 |
| I guess I'm already used to nothing happening for real now, cause I enjoyed the episode anyway. Question to those familiar with the source |
| Awesome signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| The all-stars game sounds interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing a couple episodes of them training together, cuz it feels like it's gonna be difficult for them to work together well haha. |
 |
| I really liked the little bit with the reserve players and their notes about how they don't want to lose to the regulars. All star team sounds pretty exciting. |
 |
| I was actually touched by the two second options, Okumara and Furuya :-) Especially Furuya, when he said he meant it when he complimented Sawamura, and that he was his inspiration that brightens the whole team. Powerful stuff from the Ace, makes me wish he was MC in a way though. Damn, Miyuki will be taking a temporary leave, I wonder who is he going with? I'm also proud of how level headed Nori is, considering Sawamura is doing the most in the team. It's guys like these that keep the equilibrium in the team, I really like him. Okumura is through being a D after seeing how important Furuya and Sawamura are in the team, let's hope it stays that way. |

| Nice Koshu and Seto finally joined first string, looking forward to see Koshu catch for Eijun. |
 |
| Insanely boring episode yet again. |
 |
| Furuya has respect for Eijun, and he does know that Eijun brightens up the team. I like how we get to hear him say it out loud. The two really push each other to improve. Miyuki saying that the upperclassmen hated him when he was a first-year because he mouthed-off at them, and the coaches wouldn't let that go XD Okumura may be bold, but he's definitely polite. It was funny how he really wanted to catch for Eijun right away after finally making first string. I'm so excited! My favorite parts are coming up! |
| I love how Sanada is one of the pitchers who Sawamura acknowledges. And was that the first time Furuya called him Eijun? I honestly can't remember, but I wonder why he was so honest with Koushuu. I guess he needed someone, who is still relatively new and disconnected from the first string, to hear him out. I appreciated that scene though. And I love how Toujou is evolving as a pitcher, and how Miyuki thought to himself that Kawakami is the ace of their generation. That was honestly kind of moving. Even Koushuu was likeable this time around. He admitted that Furuya's pitches were scary, and he bowed to Sawamura. I don't know if it's the right word, but he finally showed some vulnerability in a good way. |
 |
| Sawamura it's increasing and pitching well, I would like this go on for ever. Okumura bowing was pretty impressive to me, this part of him was interesting and good to see from him. Miyuki is now too much calm, but on my mind he's still being proud and sarcastic, anyway I love him so bad. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| Come on stop teasing us we want to see the summer tournament now |
 「 To other people, I might not have changed at all, but I feel like I was able to change... 」 |
| Anyone else noticed that, during a game, Miyuki always has the orange "Sawamura" eyes during games? I went back and checked the earlier seasons and found that Yuki also had the orange eyes whenever he was at bat. Also, how exactly are teams supposed to prepare for Seido? They've practically got two "aces" at the moment; Sawamura with his uber-confusion fu pitching and Furuya with his overpowering pitching. Then there's Kawakami, whose apparently better than Tanba now and they still have two more pitchers set aside (Kaneda and Tojo). When it comes to batting, Speedy Gonzales Kuramochi can now hit reliably, Haruichi is essentially Yuki lite combined with his brother, Miyuki hits for fun, Zono has the face confusion, Sawamura with his confusion fu batting and Furuya is also a relatively reliable batter. Then there's Masashi, who if he hits is either a long hit or a home run, Yui who can hit far, Okumura who can hit reliably and Seto is basically Kuramochi lite but probably a little better at batting. anthi-light said: Come on stop teasing us we want to see the summer tournament now The season will probably end with the start of the summer tournament. The manga is only at the third game so far. |
 |
| Sawamura is quickly growing to be the ace. Okumura has his first-string call. Can't wait for the All-star team matchup. Hope the LA highschoolers have something up their sleeves. |
| Don't you also love it too when your opinion towards a character changes from "Uggh!" to "Okkk!"? xD Furuya and Okumura, u get +1 point each for your actions this episode. Don't efff it up! Switch to Sawamura-Okumura battery is on ON! |
 |
| Furuya's words about Eijun is so touching!! Wahhh T-----T Furuya even acknowledge how good Eijun is. It's so overwhelming! Hahah Eijun's payback time from Okumura's constant rejection before xD |
 |
| The all-star game seems interesting. |
 |
| Being stuck in the shadows of talented players like Tanba, Furuya and even Eijun, its wholesome compliment to hear from Miyuki that Kawakami is the ace of their generation. Excited to see the All-star match as we haven't gotten any exciting match this whole season except the Hakuryu one. |
 |
| Love seeing Furuya getting back on his feet while learning so much in a way. I've always known that even if he doesn't say it (except for the first time in this episode), he has always acknowledged Eijun and has been improving because of the latter's impact as well. Both of them came so far because of each other. They're great rivals. :) Wolf boi's promise to catch for Eijun when he gets in the first string is about to get fulfilled. And well... I know he has the same respect for Furuya, but he only made that promise to Eijun. So Eijun's kinda special, huh? Heh... |

| And he still thinks that’s not enough yet, keep yourself motivated Eijun. Seido team is really doing well, and they keep themselves motivated because of having Eijun around. I really wanted Okumura to be close to Eijun, I know for sure that he’ll be able to bring the sparks of his eyes back. The one thing I want Eijun to work on is his batting skills cause the will really come in handy. Miyuki is represent Seido!! Let’s go! I wish the team was like like that with Eijun when he was going through his own stuff. Okumura and Seto join the first sting. Now you can pitch for him haha. Oh the was wholesome he wants to catch for him immediately. |

| Great episode! Okamura has really grown on me |
