<br /><br />This practice game is getting long. But it's been good in character development I guess.
It was a good ep, but again tension moments were pretty much non-existent.. 'cept for the argument within Kanon's team. It's a pity we gotta wait so many time for the subs.. and I just hope this doesn't get licensed in the meantime, otherwise...

It was a good episode, I really like this anime, too bad there's only one subbed release every month, anyone know how far along the Raw episodes have gotten?

Mihashi is soooo gay. Someone seriously needs to inject some testosterone into that kid.

At least he's starting to get a little swagger and confidence behind him.

I lol'd.
The game is going at an annoying snails pace though.
Still, Okazaki Tomoya is lucky to have his knee guard thing tightened by such a beautiful woman. SHe kinda scares me though; it's like she gets off by having kids play baseball...

Yes, this game is taking too long... But I loved it, anyway. Character development for everyone! haha Maaaaaaan, ABExMIHASHI = OTP!!! Mihashi is such a uke, oh my.
Abe crying because of Mihashi's past was the best part in this show so far. :3 I like Katou too, I don't know if I cheer for Katou or Mihashi. D:

Kanou says right things all right, but the question is - why is he saying it just now? Why didn't he say those during all three years of junior high? I just can't find any reasonable explanation. It's hard to beleive he didn't realize the real reason behind team's loses as much as he didn't care to do anything about it

He had been telling them that Mihashi is not weak, yet his teammates cannot see past the whole "fastball is everything", especially when Mihashi was throwing such slow slow slow ball.

I'm not really minding the dub as much anymore, but it's like watching a different Oofuri with slightly tweaked characters. It has almost an American feel? American adaptation.

This really feels a bit slow somehow... compared to Diamond no Ace I watched recently

Still nice though

It's almost refreshing to see control pitches rather than fastball after fastball. Super long game but Mihashi needed the character development.

Good episode.
The OST is really nothing special, but somehow it strikes just the right chord.

The pacing might be slow but I don't mind it.
It's pretty great how Mihashi is continuing to hold them down in his pitching.
I kinda find it ironic how Mihashi's former catcher talks about favouritism towards Mihashi when he clearly has favouritism towards Kanou.I mean how is staying behind working on catching the reserve pitcher's forkballs while neglecting to work with the ace not favouritism?
So after 4/5 innings Mihashi's former teammates still look down on him despite him managing to shut them out? Well at least Kanou knows that favouritsim or not,Mihashi is not useless.I hope his teammates will finally listen to his words of wisdom to be more serious.or not.It would be nice if Mihashi was able to beat them.It might add to his confidence.

this game is taking quite a long time but i dont mind at all its really good. that argument especially with the opponent i can watch that all day it was so good. pitcher guy getting angry and finally venting his frustrations he tried to keep for 3 years, catcher guy feeling guilty, the others trying to defend catcher guy because they dont really believe in pitcher's argument and finally tall guy stopping it. what a good arbiter
