HA! Well that's two pitchers down. First Goro denounces the manual and then he throws it back right in their faces.

The Mayamura showdown should be very interesting.

Goro is such a troll, looks like the director is near ready to flip out. Gyro-pitches? Never hear of those, wonder what the trick is behind those. Liking how they're taking time with this game, going into detail for each inning.

Heh. I kinda smirked at the opponent's reactions when Goro said "you get tricked by my crappy plays!" Lol.

''The limits of the Kaidou Manual''

Goro's soo cool! Welp, I somewhat agree with Goro. There are things that you cannot learn just by following the manual. Sometimes we really have to break the rules.

Love seeing that director chick constantly getting outsmarted like that. This was supposed to be a crushing game . . . And yet here we are. Funny seeing this all play out.

All dem pitching... All dem wikipedia search I must do while watching an anime... I freaking love that. So much fucked up thing in baseball pitching, it's amazing.

Baseball is just so much about probabilities, that if you overthink it too much, it can go right back into your face. With their probabilities, they were sure that Goro wouldn't ask Kusano something like that, but in the end, Goro want to play baseball, not the probability game. That will probably stike him back in the ass later.

Gyroball huh, I wonder if he was only able to achieve this playing southpaw or if he would've still been able to do it with his normal right handed pitching.

The coach doesn't seem to be very happy.

Being from Europe, I don't know a single thing about baseball other than the most basic stuff, and some plays really throw me off because I have no idea if it's real or just anime lol

Guess now the female director goes full manual too. Wonder how bad the actual coach of the regular team will be in that aspect. Goro will have to do a lot to convince these people. They're not even completely wrong, just probably the worst option for people who want to outdo themselves, like the previous coach on Dream Island said.

My heart nearly stopped beating when the batter hit Goros ball... good thing it was a foul.

I really really really thought theres going to be a great plot twist when Goro hit his glove to the ground and pitched with his right hand. Too bad it wasnt what it seemed to be...

Oh man Goro shows them the limit of the manual.
My only regret is having regrets!

Whaha gotta love that glorious egoistical troll Goro with the whole safety-squeeze debacle as it all boils down to him just wanting to enjoy baseball and not follow the probabilities written in a dumb manual.

On a sidenote I can't imagine the surprised looks if Goro threw a monstrous pitch with his right hand just like the old elementary days, too bad thats not possible with his injury.
