I actually thought this as soon as I saw her face. Haha, I thought the exact same thing.. :P |
| I thought Hoshino, but both his mom and Hoshino look similar. Let the love triangle begin, just don't become a harem. |
 |
| Why do all the girls look the same? XD |
| Oh my . . . So his new crush is a pitcher as well? Hate to say it though but kind of not looking forward to this development, almost positive this is just going to be a string of awkward moments. |
 |
| The second I saw "his new crush" i thought, is that his adoptive mom? |
| I'm not pleased with the new developement, no need a love triangle. Shimizu is annoying enough but they had that little chemistry. |
| Haha, Goro falling in love at first sight. She's even a pitcher! A match made in heaven... That probably won't last long, if they ends up as rivals. They all made it out alive of that training! Yay! No, seriously though, Coach. You should probably scale the difficulty for your player. I mean, it's still a kid league after all. |

| lol another girl enters the fold. |
| The ending was exciting. This was a slower paced episode. Still good. |
 |
| A cat in a tree ? really ? Are cats growing on trees in Japan ? Cause I sure remember seeing that dozens of times already. Plus, if you cross a cat on a branch IRL, not sure you'd go out of your way to make go down. This new girl seems older than Goro. Not sure she qualifies as a potential GF. Why is a 9 year-old in a love-daze to begin with... |
| New girl looks like a chibi version of Hoshino lol. Kind of weird that he's that into her since shit's gonna get real awkward when he comes home xD Poor Shimizu doesn't seem to stand a chance. |
 |
| I'm amazed they finished the marathon. He seems to like that girl but Shimizu is better for him. |
 |
| Poor Shimizu, even though there's no romance at all because they're nine year old, she still got a love rival somehow. And not only that, but the rival is actually good at baseball lol. And everybody teases her for being bad as well. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| Ah a love rival appears even though not much is going on in the romance department. |
 |
| Oh boy. Love at first sight. Given the preview, I'm hoping that this will have more of an affect on Shimizu than on Gorou. It's fine for him to have the crush as long as it doesn't consume too much of the show; if it pushes Shimizu to get better too, I'm all for it. I'm glad they all completed the training. I was really wondering if the little guy would or not. HapHazrD said: Why is a 9 year-old in a love-daze to begin with... I had crushes at 7. Lol. Having one at 9 isn't strange at all. |
| Uh,love interest appears and a capable one on top. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| He better end up with Shimizu. She is legit dedicated af. |
 |
| Lmao, another love interest and Goro already fallen in love with her? *gasps* Wonder how this will turnout. |
 |
| Could she be a love interest? or a rival? or both?? |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| finally our coach started to get more seriously, though i don't see so much improving from the few scenes. hope that Shimizu will get better thoug. our Goro fall in love, and like other in this thread i don't love this development so much. |
| great episode, I would have run all that marathon not for koushien, not for glory but only for the chance of being in the same team as shimizu. do I smell a love triangle, braided girl sure is cool, I wonder how good she is at pitching though |
    |
| Good to see the coach step up his game, now hoping Shimizu becomes better at playing because she's taking a lot of L's like this episode ending last in the marathon and also Goro jokingly naming that hopeless cat after her. |
 |
| Good episode again. Too bad the story needs to add an unnecessary love triangle for no reason. |
