| Great manga. The ending makes a lot of sense to me; can't imagine it any other way. Wonderful. |
| A wonderful ending. :) Adachi sensei is definately one of my favs now. An 8.5/10 |

| Cross Game was a little better. This ending was more clear cut, but there seems to be little romantic development compared to Xgame, This was good though! |
| This isn't Cross Game. :/ Well, at least I can finally drop the anime. I shall refer to the mangaka with the word "fucker" from now on. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Shockingly, after reading H2, for some odd reason I decided to read this manga next (honestly I just want another long baseball series) . . . Of course to no real surprise, this wasn't the "baseball series" I was looking for. However, having said that, I was pleasantly surprised to see this series was quite a bit better than H2. Why? Well . . . The balance between SoL and Sports was a bit better (I still would say that the sports aspect was rather . . . "meh", but it was done better as well, it actually showed things like the team practicing), but the big difference was in the characters. It isn't like the characters were better developed in this series (in fact they are almost carbon copies of one another to some extent), but this series didn't "forget" about characters. Now part of this is because it didn't introduce as many characters, but the side characters it did introduce did maintain some level of relevance which I really appreciated given the fact I was expecting something as messy as H2. On a side not, what did bother me however was the romance. I really think this guy would be a much better writer if he either A) committed to the romantic subplot or B) left it out. Pretty tired so not going to try and explain this in greater detail (sorry, very lazy), but basically I was kind of perturbed that despite her always loving Tatsuya, and him always loving her, it kind of stayed at a standstill for 3-4+ years. Now I do understand that their were "complications" due to Katsuya's death . . . However it probably would have been better (in my opinion), had they openly hashed those feelings out with one another. As it was, it kind of seemed like that they continually stated their love for one another (to others as well as to each other), but it roundabout ways (which the other clearly understood), but continuously pretended they didn't understand what the other was saying (despite them both knowing that the other did), and so stayed at a constant stand still for 3 years. (Now I am positive that is worded horribly, practically falling asleep here, sorry >.<) Anyways, as for the last chapter I liked it. I couldn't tell though, did they win the Koshien? Not sure how the "plates" work, guessing they atleast had to make it past a few rounds? Anyways, I am kind of sad that he gave up baseball, at the beginning of the series I was hoping that he himself actually had an interest in the sport, however by the end it seemed like he still didn't really care about anything that didn't concern Minami (Worried for his future). Anyways, this series was definitely better than H2. 7/10. |

| They won <3 the national haha. |
| I don't understand, is the last page showing Meisei winning the Koshien or is that a award for just participating in the koshien after winning against Sumi-tech? |

| I literally read and get hooked into this eventhough I've watched the anime, and surprisingly enough I can enjoy it quite nicely, although not as much as the first time I experienced it. Still love it as much as the adaptation, 9/10 (though H2 is still my favorite) |

| It was very good to see Tatsuya win the Koshien, he gave demonstration of his strenght without the needing of Minami or Kazuya’s motivations. I think he’s a great character, he’s probably the character I believe the best out of the Adachi’s series I’ve read or seen up till now. The whole Kazuya thing was a bit annoying, honestly. The love between Tatsuya and Minami was clear from the start, I liked the fact that was only up to Tatsuya to be honest with his feelings so that he can accept Minami’s feelings, like he did in the end. I would have liked to see more of Tatsuya and Minami together and also I wanted to see Tatsuya makes true Minami’s dream of become his wife. However, the ending was never the best part of the Adachi’s works I’ve read or seen, so it’s ok. |

| I want to cry, they really won the Koushien ... :') This manga is good, big part of it because Adachi was witty in making cliffhangers at the end of basically every chapter, made it hard for me to pause reading. I watched Cross Game first, this manga is only weaker in the beginning, mainly because Katsuya's death and his character are not as impactful and likeable as his Cross Game counterpart. But for the intensity of baseball matches, climaxing one in particular, I think Touch is better. |
