| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Damn, I really dig the intensity of those batting positions. The stance with those glowing eyes tells it all. Eijun is also in this game now so that makes it worthwhile to see his much he progressed. Ah those laughs never cease to amuse me :D |
 |
| Nice to see he jammed Raichi (his stunned face was awesome), lol at Sawamura noticing Raichi and then resuming his victory cheer. Whoot, now that Sanada's pitching the real battle's about to begin. Can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| Sawamura and Raichi is completely on the same wavelength xD Sawamura's pitches were pretty intense (his eyes too). Miyuki got mad! Then Sawamura became really obedient! That pitch was pretty amazing! Raichi completely got shut down on that last throw! Sanada being a similar style. The ace of Yakushi!!! Can't wait to see how Seido's batters would do! |
 |
| Had goosebumps with all the suspense being built up. Sawamura vs Raichi was amazing with the eye contact and the intense atmosphere. The ace with a similar pitch to Sawamura it seems.. going to be interesting |
| Every second with Sawamura on-screen is top-notch. |
| Amazing ep as always!! Sure threw me off for a second when Sawamura came on. Didn't see any hint in the last preview that he was going to play. Was expecting him to pitch starting the next episode or later at the earliest. Don't piss off Miyuki again Sawamura! But man... Furuya is really starting to look like Sawamura's rival... He really really wants to be the ace of the team as well now, as opposed to just wanting to pitch to Miyuki before. |
| Sawamura managed to get Raichi to hit a fly ball for the out. Sanada is going to pitch now. |
 |
| Lol Miyuki is so scary when he's angry. |
| I was surprised that Sawamura played now. Did not expect it at all. And was surprised to know too that Sanada pitches like Sawamura. And much better as the coach said!!! Waaaa.. that will be hard then for the Seido batters. Can't wait for the next episode :) |
| This episode was awesome as all hell. I though it was funny that everyone in the infield was under Sawamura when he caught the ball. |
| The Bird of Hermes is my name, Eating my wings to make me tame Alucard |
| Liked the part where Miyuki threw that pitch back to Sawamura. My goodness. Can't wait to see if there will be a good turnover now that Sanada is here. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Oh my goodness, the whole "They'll know you're stupid!" thing with Sawamura & Raichi slayed me aha Excited to see Sanada pitch since he's basically the matured-version of Sawamura's style! (let's see Sawamura lay down a bunt?) |
| I liked how all the infielders were covering Sawamura on that pop-up. I thought he was going to drop it, haha. |
TravSavage said: I liked how all the infielders were covering Sawamura on that pop-up. I thought he was going to drop it, haha. Haha.. same here. Can't stop laughing at that part. They are afraid Sawamura will not catch it and they look so funny just there at the ground waiting. |
| Eijun and Raichi are destined rivals for sure. |

Of course Sawamura still has his idiot moments, but that badass grin he's got is pretty nice. >:D TravSavage said: I liked how all the infielders were covering Sawamura on that pop-up. I thought he was going to drop it, haha. LOL. I thought it was going to roll off his glove. That was hilarious with the three at his feet. XD |
| Miyuki's catch at the beginning of the ep!!! My heart skipped a beat LOL. Angry Miyuki's good too. Sawamura and Raichi would make such good friends though, outside of the baseball world. |
 |
| Nice going, Sawamura ;) Fiji said: Liked the part where Miyuki threw that pitch back to Sawamura. My goodness. Yea, that was great. loved it. |
| Sawamura is fucking awesome. Also, finally we get to see Sanada, can't wait. Anyway, what's wrong with that guy Hiro with the voice of Meruem? I find his voice really unpleasent on that character, it's not fitting at all. |
 |
| im glad sawamura shut down raichi |
| Cty Best mid |
| Holy crap, didn't expect Sawamura to be pitching this episode. His moment was so awesome. Took out Raichi like a champ. Sanaka enters the field now. Things are gonna get more intense~ |
 |
| Great episode, I wonder what this Sanada fella is going to do, is he a more evolved version of Sawamura's pitching?? Damn, I gotta wait a week for the next episode. Any idea how much of the manga has been adapted thus far? |

| Awesome episode! Furuya scoring a run was awesome ^^ Lol'd so much at how he wanted to play more then Kataoka told him u're going out XD His pitching is getting more and more awesome. Sawamura's pitches were friggin awesome! He friggin took Raichi out! Even the first one. But boy that got Miyuki pissed as F***! His last one was epic with the 4 seams. Lol'd so much at how his senpai's were all surrounding him ready to cover for him XD Also Lol'd so much at how Raichi and his dad were winking to eachother XD And is Tetsu a 100% hit rate batter? I've never seen this guy lose XD BA!!! Sanada is in! Can't wait for nxt ep! |
 |
| Looking forward to seeing Sanada play :) |
 |
| I love how Raichi and Sawamura are amazed by each other idiocy. Great episode. |
 |
| The battle between Raichi and Sawamura was awesome!! But not as awesome as when Miyuki threw the ball back to Sawamura. It looked like he was ready to kill him. |
| WP Sawamura,. |
 |
| Miyuki isn't stupid. After showing moving balls of Sawamura to Raichi, he asked a stray ball to deceive Raichi. (It's to believe he have always 1 step ahead his opponents). Sawamura is so good to follow his directive, but we mustn't forget that Miyuki plays a big role in the development and grow of Sawamura. I wonder what he will look like when he will have a pitcher who can follow all his directive. (like said in first chapters by reporters, Miyuki need a pitcher who allow him to play without restrain him...) I loved seeing Sawamura out Raichi :D     (You CAN feel the "trust") XDD (nb: Miyuki is scary when he's angry T-T) |

| I actually am not surprised that Eijun beat Raichi in this episode, but I think that Raichi's gonna hit several times starting next episode |
| KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... Angry Miyuki is so scary BUT HOT <3 |
| Sawamura beat Raichi EPIC!!!!! He caught the ball OMG EPIC!!! Oh damn Sanada will play : 0 |
| Battle of (cute)morons; Eijun vs Raichi SA-NA-DA O-M-G next week seems so far away Dx |
 |
| Welp finally had will to catch up to this show and watched 5 episodes in one go,it definitely improved a bit. |
| A battle between two idiots has never been more satisfying. (Miyuki-senpai thank yuuuu) Raichi. Yakushi Koukou. <3 Looking forward to how the ace pitcher shakes up the norm. Be extra crazy, Sawada-kun. C: |
 |
| Pitcher vs batter face off. Great episode. It would me nice if they showed more of what goes through Seido's batters minds and the opposing pitchers thoughts. |
 |
| Pure goodness with the second half. That son-father wink communication. o_- |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| He actually caught the pop-up xD |
 |
| best episode so far :D :D raichi x eijun :)))) |
| Happy for Sawamura on striking out Raichi |
| Yes, Sawamura did it!!! |
| I love how Todoroki was impressed with how Eijun was speaking his mind. Eijun did a good job stopping Todoroki. |
 |
| The idiot moments of Eijun and Raichi are just pure gold. I also like how 3 of the fielders rushed towards Eijun because they didn't trusted him fully on catching the stray ball lol. |
 |
| Raichi and his dad are hilarious haha. The second coach needs to stop being so negative about Eijun, is getting annoying at this point. Noice! Eijun caught the ball, good job. Sanada is here |
 |
| Great ep. Love seeing Eijun do well Also hilarious as always XD |
