Just spent today catching all up on major 2nd :> Finished major 100% 3 days ago.

It's a nice change from major, while I like the shonen type, Goro felt a bit OP at times, it's nice to see a character that some day may be OP, but has to learn and progress, and I can sort of understand and feel for the troubles he's going through, far more then i did Goro at times.

same here. also i love that daigo isn't the best player on his team and the dolphins aren't all bad LOL. one of the key things in major when goro was younger, was that he was always the only good player in his teams causing him too be OP.

and i like that this time, daigo is more focused on having a good battery than being the best player ever!

Yeah, as much as I love a good OP char like noruto, or luffy and such some times watching a future OP char grow into it can be as fun :>

I did not watch the original major, only watching major 2nd


ANd in my opinion, most episodes feels too slow and boring. And there not even any real match in those 7 episodes, and they wasted too much time on his freind leaving him

On other hand, Captain Tsubasa (2018) is day and night better. The last episode kept me at edge. Even the training episodes was way better than anything I've in seen Major 2, it give you a different feeling.

I wonder if the original Major is as slow as this one and waste time on some boring character drama

So far, I like this more than Major, which is big to me, as Major is probably my favorite Sports show. Its more realistic, and I find Daigo/Hikaru/Sakura much more fun and enjoyable than their older counterparts of Goro/Satou/Shimizu. I like the pacing, Daigo's failures, and the characters have good chemistry mostly IMO

Yeah I like both the Goro's and the Diago's of the anime world, too many of one or the other get boring :> I'm glad for the second series they didn't go with another goro.

I don't think you would enjoy it as much without watching the prequels as a lot of the good part of this sequel is knowing how the main character (Goro) went through his baseball career and now is passing down that legacy to his son who now meets the son of Goro's best friend and partner (Toshi). It's incredible to see something different here as everyone expects Daigo to be a baseball prodigy but he isn't able to step up to that role. He's learning things at his own pace and going in a different route than his father.

I find that Captain Tsubasa (2018) is slower and way too simple. It's about "I'm friends with the ball" rather than something a bit more deeper like Daigo and Hikaru's relationship with baseball.

Same! This is more realistic I find. Original Major is of course, a classic but I don't think I would be able to sit through all 6 seasons again (since it's kind of painful to see a certain someone keep losing and getting injuries...) whereas, I can see myself rewatching Major 2nd a few years later because it's so refreshing.

Hopefully, Major 2nd will be the first baseball anime that doesn't feature an overpowered pitcher as the main character. I really hope Daigo stays a catcher lol.

Daiya no Ace??? I think Sawamura isn't overpowered at all.

And I'd say even One Outs, since the main pitcher has no physical skill.
