Story(8):Meet Toua Tokuchi a gambler, and a One Outs baseball champion undefeated who is improving at his best at pitching. All of a sudden, things changed when Hiromichi Kojima is the first man who defeats Toua after his rematch.After the match, Kojima makes Toua to join this baseball team called Lycaons(the weakest team in baseball) to help out the team win their first championship.After he joins the team, he meets the manager of the Lycaons who requests Toua to sign the One Outs contract to include huge amounts of money if he wins a match. But, if Toua loses the manager will take Toua's money down the drain.Toua accepts the deal, and that's when the exciting adventure of Toua just getting started. The story is actually quite amazing to watch just to see what Toua's actions are going to do with the opponents he is about to face. One minor problem from making the story of a masterpiece is the ending is...... what say it makes you want something more out of it to see what's happening next. And, sometimes the arcs makes it feel like it is predictable which is not bad but it gets sorta tedious from it. Out of that the story is very nice that it is very different from what you usually see from regular baseball with some huge twists.
Art(8):Nothing to say anything bad on the art. It features red background face whenever Toua makes a grin on his face when he defeats opponents which is good. The characters looks nice which is nice though the whole art ain't memorable to look at you finish watching the show.
Sound(8): The sound is fantastic, with you first hear the opening theme song features slow beat that gives you goosebumps from listening to it. Also, the ost is pretty good when something get interesting going on to the characters at the right time. One problem aspect to the sound is sometimes the songs get repetitive to hear once you already hear it again it gets annoying. One example is after the ending theme the preview songs comes, and it brings it again in some occasionally with a scene. It gets annoying that you want a new song come in so you don't have to listen to it again.
Character(9): One Outs has the greatest characters you will ever see. Their personalities are very unique that it makes you wanting to like them. Including the villain(manager) makes you really want to him so bad, and Toua(sorta like a hero to the team of Lycaons) makes you like the characters. The rest of the characters did a very good job as their role to this series including the rivalries of the Lycanos.
Enjoyment (9):This show has very high enjoyment. With huge twists type of cat and a mouse in the whole sport of baseball. It makes you very entertained that it you will be wondering, "why baseball isn't like this type of show?"
Overall(9):Best sport show you will ever seen. If you like baseball, not a huge fan of baseball, or not even a fan of sports in general but just like smartful characters,than this one will like the show even more that you will be cringing your teeth, and have your edge on your seat.If you like physiological shows with a smartful character and a evil villain morals his plans to bring a character than you will like this show for sure like I have been enjoying it for me.
