THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
New girl is really likeable! I hope we can see Goro soon.
I'm really excited for the new game with the Touto Boys.

Super curious if we'll get a third cour or not... I've been refreshing the official broadcast page every day in hopes of an announcement but its listed until ep 20 right now.

Lol, Michiru is a big Gorou fan.
Urabe can't quit just because he isn't the ace pitcher anymore.

I've been doing exactly that too... I'm a massive fan of Major and I wish the manga was released more frequently. Honestly I'm considering doing it myself at this point.

As for Michiru, I think she is going to be an important character.
Obviously, Urabe won't quit the Dolphins. Or if he does, he will come back pretty quickly (I hope).

I also hope that the protag's will start dating a bit earlier. In Major it was during college I believe. I middle/high school thing would be much cuter in my opinion.

I also loved how this episode hinted at Daigo becoming a pitcher. It's much harder to make enjoyable content about a catcher than it is about a pitcher, so I think it's not unlikely that he will eventually change roles. Maybe he will suffer some sort of injury that makes catching impossible for him.

One negative about Major 2nd so far is that fact that I don't think it's as emotional or as serious as Major. Like Goro's fathers death and Satou's parents leaving him. Of course, I hope the characters never have to go through something so painful, but it would make the series much more dramatic. One of the reasons I like Major was because it wasn't just about Gorou's baseball life, it was about how baseball fit into his life.

Yo I agree! However, the thing making me emotional is how strong Hikaru and Daigo's bond is growing and how they play baseball because of each other, whilst Goro didn't play for Toshi but the other way around. I like that this time, we're getting a battery throughout the series like how a sports anime should be.

Great episode and never thought I would be okayed for Michiru's character until this episode. She is just I also liked Daigo's calling his dad for advice. While I find Urabe's reasoning to leave dolfin bit self-centered hopefully Daigo can convice him to play..

Ah youth ... Sakura being jealous and Michiru is as lovely as she can get, despite only doing it for her love of Goro :D
Also seems Urabe's got enough of him being seen as the go to guy when Hikaru's not available.
Daigo calling Goro for advice was a nice touch.

I loved all of Michiru’s scenes in this episode. She really seems to have that baseball spirit Gorou possessed when he was a kid.

Daigo calling Gorou for advice was super heartwarming.

Good grief, I love this sequel series. I want there to be more. x.x

i think this is also the main build-up in this season, and that's actually what makes major2nd interesting than other average sport anime that can only built in major.

Wahah hilarious that Mayumura's daughter is a big fan of his biggest rival Goro.

Even though Michiru only approached Daigo because of his dad, I like her more as character than Sakura as the latter is a bit too annoying at times.
