| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I can't think I was alone in thinking that Waka-chan was the ghost they were talking about, since she was a little girl who died in a river. Great episode. It showed the resilience of the farm team as well as some possible cracks with the team's trust in Coach Daimon's baseball aptitude. |
| Fight-o, fight-o, fight-o! Great episode, as all the previous ones. Aoba really is a cutie! I can't wait to see the mainteam go down in flames. |
| Good stuff. The coach is still a major douche. |
| Very good episode, Kou didn't have enough stamina before but this practice can finally beat them out and probably Kou become the one of the top best pitcher in Japan. |

| Waka. ;_; |
| Somewhat disappointing episode.. /: |

Me too >< "Even ghosts have people who want to see them." Loved that line :D fanti said: Fight-o, fight-o, fight-o! Great episode, as all the previous ones. Aoba really is a cutie!

| Blah episode. Most of this could have been in any kid's show (and probably was) that I saw when I was little. Nothing very interesting happened, but nothing terrible either. Just blah. |
| If you're expecting something out of the norm to happen, noteD, then you are watching the wrong series. |

Megiddo said: If you're expecting something out of the norm to happen, noteD, then you are watching the wrong series. Of course I'm not expecting anything out of the norm to happen. This is Adachi. I know exactly what to expect, but this was just run of the mill and the characters didn't make anything special out of something so banal. |
| Aoba was <3 Damn, I immediately thought of Waka when the drowning ghost was mentioned ;__; |
 |
| It was a great episode as usual... and the misunderstanding about the gender of the old man caused some hilarious reactions. |
| Very enjoyable episode, one of the best so far. I'm slowly falling in love with this series. <3 |
 |
| I quite liked it, it was weaker than the previous episodes but it still had a nice feeling to it. Seems like they starting to finally show Aoba's interest in Kou which is good :) We also see that the prefab coach is more serious than we thought. Also got some development from Azuma and the other guy which i found interesting. Some nice little comedy moments in it too. |
ntHai said: Good. They're training hard to beat the main team. |
 |
| The main team's coach is making me angry.. Aoba is Tsundere always, she was very cold towards Kou when Kou try to find her.. And it's cute to see how Kou and Aoba think the same way, they are hoping to meet Wakaba.. Wakaba is like a bound for them.. |
 |
| It was nice that Aoba spent a little time there instead of just dropping something off then leaving. |
| Nothing much happening... but the episode certainly showed how much of a buttface the coach for the high school team (not the coach for the farm team, who's awesome) truly is. He took a fantastic pitcher out of the line-up because that particular pitcher showed the other players that, GASP, that coach was wrong about something? The coach won't admit his mistake either, I'm sure. It was cool seeing Aoba and Kou say pretty much the same thing about even ghosts having people they want to see. :) And whoa, Kou is seriously hard-working... They've definitely driven that point home in this series. |
| Beautiful episode. |
 |
| The old woman turned out to be an old man after all haha! Can't wait for the varsity vs prefab game. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| I like how the first string team is so cocky but they can't even provide protection for their best hitter. They are being carried so hard lol. |
| ''Some ghosts also have people that want to see them...'' Ouch, right in the feels. Well, it's a really sudden change of mood because Aoba attitude toward Koh has changed drastically. I don't know if it's because of what he did for his last anniversary, but she would never have proposed before to bring him his clothes. Also, I think that she might not have noticed it herself, but it look like she became a fan of him... :P The ''Trash'' trains hard and are as motivated as ever. From the cover, it look like the prime team is doing great. But when you open the book, you see that the team is slowly losing confidence in their coach. That's pretty much the worst thing that would happen. But wait, there's even worst! Their pitcher is slowly being injured and he's denying it. When it will come to his apogee, he'll have to find a pitcher and he'll obviously turn to Koh. Though, I wonder... Would Koh accept to go in the prime team. Wouldn't it be a greater insult to just refuse and stay in the Trash club? The prime club would enter in a big crisis and finally, the coach would probably be fired. :D |

| That Line: "Some Ghosts also have people that wan't to see them..." Jeez I cant help but feel a bit from just hearing that. Our team is training hard while the "pro" team is Mocking them while losing Confidence. I kinda Hope though that a few of the Pro Players decide to quit the Team and join Kou's Cause some of them have shown to be actually good Characters. It Seems i have found the Oldest Trap Character in an anime xD! Ugh i laughed when they said that no old women lived there. most of us HAD to assume it was a ghost until they showed it was just an OLD MAN not an old Woman. |
| Argue? Nah Too lazy For That... Are You Ready!~Gulcasa |
| I just want to know when people start shoving it up the varsity coach's ass. |
 |
| Aoba annoyed me a bit not taking Kou seriously when he thought she drowned. That's not a subject she should tease him about. But, she did redeem herself a little bit in the end. Also, seriously... That's some dedication |
 |
| That coach is a real piece of work. |
| Aoba scared me, a lot! Kakarot helped them. If the new coach doesn't leave, their training will be in vain, that guy will never give them a chance. |
 |
| - the first part of the ep was very... interesting. - the Variety team (or at least Miki and Azuma) finaly realizing that their coach thinks only about himself). - prefab, fight! - finally nice drawn backgrounds |
| Wow I thought the ghost would turn out to be Wakaba or something, not just a prank by some old 'woman'...didn't expect the last trap of 'her' |
 |
| this ep was great on so many levels... the twist about the old man, the varsity team losing trust in the coach, aoba starting to respect kou! loved it. pls never let them play baseball again i cant stand it lmaoooo |
 |
| So the first string is "killing" it in the preliminaries. They didn't even bother bringing the prefab even if it's just to warm up the benches. Ultimately this decision will 'warm up' the prefab instead. Besides the awkward ghost subplot with a lame plottwist this episode showcased a clear distinction of the two coaches. First off it showed the weakness of Daimon as a coach. Then it showed the strength of the old coach (don't recall his name) who finally decided to get serious. Coach Daimon might be good at strategizing and scouting for team members but as a coach he's a failure for hurting his players. On the other hand the old coach seems to be the type who can grow good players out of scrubs. Man I loved Aoba out of tomboy clothes for once. |
| Finally we get some 'dere' after all that 'tsun'. Seriously, Aoba is cool and all but she's been so brutal to my boi Kou. Nice to see her finally starting to warming up and realizing what a giga chad he truly is. |
