So to begin with i will give a brief caution to those who want to see it. If your one of those pretty much sick of the main character being largely underpowered in comparison to those around him and to top it all being only as clever as a monkey then this anime is really something you should be careful about getting to high expectations from. i will write both good and bad about the main character so that it gives both of my views so to speak on him
To begin with i really like the story since it kinda puts you in the shoes of a big baseball school and its not like you follow a tiny baseball club that has some fantasy dream. It feels real when they talk about it and it ads to the fun of it. The sound and the entire atmosphere you can get from just watching as the pitcher steps on the mound or the hitter stands ready to maybe hit a big homerun. Eventhough im not one to be spesific when it comes to the art i do like it. Its nice and smooth enough but feels like a sports animation. The main character which the story is supposed to revolve around has his moments. Eventhough he has alot of bad sides you can say he also has his good parts. he creates and enthusiasm few people have on his team and he manages to create a good mood and sometimes so funny that you will laugh your ass off.
So the to downside. As i said before if you dont like the moneky stupidity and majorly underpowered Main character then this will piss you of which it often at times did to me. So on the more negative side of the supposed main character swamura ejun. Why supposed well through the anime it was rare to really feel that he was the main character unless you looking at the first episodes there he is introduced. But after that he dissapears more and more only giving hints of what he might be in the creator of this anime eyes. He is a pitcher with not much room between his ear which he componsate by being loudmouthed and at times annoying and cringy.
To summarise fun and good anime to watch if you need a good sports anime that gives you much of what every sports/baseball anime can give you but. There will be time that the irritation might make you want to just press pause and think back on and consider if you really want to continue since something annoying might have happened at the end. I rewatched it because much of it had great parts that i loved and that i could still remember. Things that made me laugh or just love a certain character eventhough he might be wicked. But it never felt great its not like an anime there you want to say this is one of the best sports or baseball anime you have watched. Its more like this was fun and good maybe i will watch it another time if i feel for it.
