Finally, they settle a score without violence but with competitive sports! Baseball more precisely.

Fun stuff and obviously, these girls play with some violence. Poor Nagomi...seems like she's always a targets in this anime. This was one of the most awkward baseball theme episodes I've ever seen and we got some stabbing too...damn. This anime can't ever escape bloodshed.

Can a panda play baseball? The answer is yes! and he is pretty good at it as well.

Fun Fact:
The ones who voiced those Venezuelan players are actually Venezuelan.

So much wholesome fun. An honest game with no casualties was needed for a change. Good for Nagomi😭🤣

Okay let's see... folks from Venezuela, a russian maid, a gyaru, a fucking panda and a typical someone who can't help but get overexcited and sledge. A literal team of dreams in other words.

Would've paid my lifetime of worth to watch this kinda of Baseball.

That was one fair baseball fight between the two teams, and had some funny moments, but looks like more problems are yet to arise for Nagomi's maid cafe.
I give it 5/10.

Ah yes, let's turn this show about maids and gang wars into a sports anime for an episode!

Weird choice, but okay, such weirdness isn't completely out of place for this show. And besides, it does act as the first step towards fair play between Creatureland and Maidalien.

But Nagomi was, dare I say, pretty annoying this episode. I get that she wants to be the advocate for the aforementioned fair play, but it gets a bit annoying when it's jammed down the viewers throat every five seconds.

Other than that, well, I liked the Venezuelan guys. They were entertaining.

It is clear, that Nagomi's sanity is deteriorating due to all the violence she witnessed and vain attempts to stop it.

From cafe maids to baseball players, this show can't take a break being ANYTHING and everything in its weirdness.

Manami's funeral with maids donned in black aside, while the Maidalien name is gone, to settle scores against Oinky Doink Cafe with the newly transferred Maidalien maids, the only way is through baseball to honour Manami's legacy. But man, the slander is damn hilarious I tell you, it's the Pigs vs. Axototls with Nagomi wanting to play fair and square, which in this environment, is nothing but scores of tricks.

Nagomi...really is the Pigs' weakest link...aside from the Venezuelans hired just to play hooky, they're funny for the comedy. But truth be told, what's an Akibahara maid when you play it fair, Nagomi's pretty persistent in achieving things her way, and while that can get annoying pretty fast, everyone starts following her lead...which leads to Ugaki and Miyabi's deaths, taken as a statue of sorts (which I always chuckle at this absurdity lols).

Ranko's beef with the current head Nagi to protect Creatureland at the cost of her life, it just paints an ominous picture.

For once, a baseball match with no casualties but deaths, it's standard fare.

I wonder what the hell is going on with Nagomi? Trying to be Nishikigi Chisato of Creatureland for Nerula-chan's sake? Oh we finally see the head of Creatureland actually knows Ranko personally and reminded her the duty as a maid in Akiba reminds me of Lycoreco. Lets see where this is going.

I don't think Nagomi felt okay after what happened to Nerula despite what she did on the previous episode where she saved the entire Ton Tokoton crew from Manami. I honestly would like to see her fight more or grow up as a character where she needed to change a part of herself to remain the same as what she showed on this episode seems off there.

Anyway I want more so gotta wait for next week and see where this is going for Ton Tokoton.

The Venezuelans had me crying dawg that was the randomest shit ever lol. What a crazy episode. Akiba maid sensou is now a sports anime, and one of the best at that.

“Can’t they angle her differently” lmaooo dude the manager is so unintentionally funny.

They gotta stop disrespecting My wife ranko’s age like that too “you’re too old for all that moe moe kyun”, respect her, smh.

Nagomi already has changed. She is very much a passenger in the first half and is just carried along by everyone else. Now she is out there pushing her ideals on others and actually succeeding in winning them over. She doesn't need to fight more, that would just be accepting the way things are in Akihabara. The whole reason she came back is the last episode was because Nerula believed that she could change the status quo for the better.

Please tell me Nagomi has canonically reached insanity and that's why she was acting extra unbearable this episode. Because I refuse to believe her naivety still remains after this last arc.

And also can we stop with the Nerura bs? She and Nagomi barely interacted before her death and now the show wants us to believe they were always soulmates or some shit? Come on...

I believe this is the case. Her deep denial was on full display and her just immediately aggreging to "noone died" and going with it is a clear indication, that she is loosing it and by the end will go insane.

You know, cutting to an unidentified person in an axolotl costume standing in the background doesn't really make for a good point of tension when there's been an unidentified person in a panda costume standing in the background of every episode and the show acts like it's no big deal. I was really hoping they wouldn't reveal who/what was inside the suit, so that it and Okachimachi could be weird together.
Also, the part where Manager calls the opposition disparaging puns on "wooper-looper" became ironic once I found out that the reason Japan calls them "loopers" in the first place, according to Wiktionary, is that the term "axolotl" already sounds like a Japanese insult.

Panda was hands down the game's MVP.
The second best player was Ranko, and Nagomi, the self-proclaimed experienced softballer, didn't seem too hot when she didn't play the catcher.

Something that I noticed from today's episode is Nagomi elevates from her previous helpless role and now she successfully influenced former Maidaliens through her benevolence. Wonder if she becomes the CEO of a Unified Maid Group, once Nagi bites the dust at the end...

Thankfully the three random dudes from Venezuela Yasuho hired didn't get killed and they did benefit on brightening up the cafe, mostly just making me chuckle at how am I going to comprehend them.😅

Only 4 episodes to go and we already get into Ranko's temporary reunion with Nagi. By far, the two bear no hard feelings yet; amidst their differences and I like how they look mature during their conversation.

It's almost the end, but not yet...

Clearly the show probably leans onto that notion. A character who had little to none meaningful moments spent and pair them up with the mc will always be considered poor writing.

Really want to see Nagomi become more independent, once realizing a death wish is nothing but an empty promise.

Como me reí con este capítulo. Felicidades a Venezuela por la mención en este capítulo. Como la encargada de Maidlen y su asesina están muertas, pero le dicen a Nagomi que no lo están para así terminar el juego como ella quiere. Encima, después las sostienen mientras cantan el himno de Tontokoton entre lagrimas. Que bizarreada hermosa. Pero no todo es risas. Ahora se ve que el pasado de Ranko saldrá a la luz.

Let's not forget she's a ninja last episode ago. If her non-violent actions backfired, she better retain her fighting expertise for the remainder.

How do we solve maid wars? By playing baseball of course!

I have a prediction for the endgame of this show after watching this episode. With Nagomi being the "protector of peace" in the baseball game today, I think at the end, what this show is trying to go for is changing maids from these violent lunatics into the cute "moe moe kyun" maids that we are all used to seeing. A changing of culture, I believe, is what Nagomi, and this show is trying to go for.

Do I like this supposed direction? To be honest, no, because that means the show is still trying to play it safe in its insanity, and keeping Nagomi's hands clean, and after this episode, I'm convinced they'll stay clean for the entire series.

Maybe this prediction will be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's how this is going to turn out. Even so, it's still an entertaining time.

Baseball, bloody hell! XD

After recent events, it is nice to see Nagomi showing less fear and more confidence in what she believes, even though it did get put to a brutal test in this baseball-focused episode. At times, the match was clean, but then it sometimes went down the physical route of tripping and slugging that we're all familiar with.

The extra comedy that I loved from this episode was from the three guys from Venezuela, who were having a good time, even with the violence around them! It certainly gave me a good laugh for sure! =P

Once again, this was another reminder of how overpowered Panda is, getting some home-runs like it was nothing.

This series still succeeds in making me enjoy how wacky and hectic it can be and I look forward to seeing what it comes up with next week. The talk between Ranko and the Creatureland chief was very interesting and I'm sure that will play a part in later episodes.

I fucking love this show, that was absolutely hilarious. We just had the most wholesome game of baseball ever. No one definitely died yep, first time in an episode of this show yep. Ah yes, baseball and P.A. Works a match made in heaven.

Seriously though, someone needs to check on Nagomi's head. Nagomi's character development is amazing lmao, and uhh, worrying.

They really got real Venezuelans for this lmao, they were hilarious.

Ranko was mad hot and really cool this episode, though she's always cool. Ranko finally saw Uzuko again, though she goes by Nagi now. Really looking forward to see where we go next.
