| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So it was the drums. I know Japanese Drums can cut through crowd noise, but it still seems a bit implausible that all 9 players could make out the changes in tempo clearly. And Mihara is a money slut. Somehow I get the feeling that, when this show is over, Tokuchi is going to own the team. |
| Shameless Blog Plugging: animetics.net |
| Tokuchi`s arguments with Mohara is hilarious! |
| Sorry for grammar mistakes(if any), english is not my native language. Feel free to correct me if you see some. |
| explanations are waaaay tooo looooong D: guess the manager has a better owner than before... maybe. Torisunanohokori said: Somehow I get the feeling that, when this show is over, Tokuchi is going to own the team. I don't see how else the owner will be able to pay his debt lol. |

| Damn, they were using the drums. I thought it was the beer girl. Anyway, another fucking awesome ep. Toua is just superb. |
| Yahoo,i was for the drums all along.It was just too damn obvious.I mean,they could clearly be heard through the whole episodes.Not that i didn't suspect the beer girl for a while too... The coach was just too pathetic this episode,just hilarious. |

| A funny episode, all these safety bunts must be suspicious :P |
| Yeah, this makes no sense... |
| Somehow I figured out it was the drums last episode. >.> Snackgirl was too obvious since they kept showing her, but when I heard the drums. It just felt like that was it. |
| I'm an idiot for thinking it was the beer girl. I thought it was too obvious anyways though. Toua. XD |

GoldenBRS said: Man now the manger is annoying. He really is. His greedy ass. Oh well. Just like the narrator said, he's toua's dog now. At least he'll be way more useful >.> Oh and good job everyone figuring out it was the drums. I had no clue how they were cheating lol |
 |
| This one was pretty ingenious. |
 |
| I was starting to suspect ear pieces and transmissions, but the drum signal is brilliant. I even went back to the past episode and other scenes where the signs were stolen and the drum's tempo changed every time. Tokuchi is simply a bad ass, throwing that money down for the manager. Fat Lips is annoying but now Toua has a good leash on him. |
 |
| Yep the drums. "See, I told you" Such a funny moment. "I don't believe you" Lol that face Once a dog always a dog, then again for that much money I would be a dog for 2 games too :P |

| "Fat lips" - love this nickname lol. By the way I have as big lips as the manager :D :P |
 |
| haha fat lips just changed owners. |
 |
| I KNEW IT! THOSE FUCKING DRUMS! SAFTEY BUNTO!!! This episode goes to show that the human psyche really is controlled by money. Great episode. This one was pretty entertaining overall. 8/10 |

| Rofl'd at Tokuchi holding the manager with the chain. The long part about persuading him to bunting was unnessecary. |
| They should just change the signal's meaning every game . . . Or have a fan "accidentally" break the drum. |
 |

| So it was the drums, I agree, how do they all notice the tempo change? sometimes when people concentrate on stuff they don't notice noise in the background. Also how can the drummer even see the signals? I thought he'd be too far away to even see them properly. He does have really Fat Lips lol. He just needed a cash incentive. Loved the picture of Toua at the end with the chain, was hot lol <3 |

stephtastrophe said: Also how can the drummer even see the signals? I thought he'd be too far away to even see them properly. I was also thinking that. He is quite far. |
 |
| Not sure how the drum player can see all the signals, maybe some sort of binoculars or communication through ear pieces. Now it's time to get back some points vs those sneaky cheaters :) |
 |
| I LOLed at the manager when he made those calculations,amazing tactics by Tokuchi. Great Episode. |
| It was the drums eh? |
| The coach is super funny. |
 |
| The manager is so easy to control lol. |
 |
| It's time to turn the game around. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Considering how easy it was to realize what the signal is, that explanation was painfully long... at least the manager was funny again. I also wonder why Tokuchi carries wads of cash around like that. Probably all part of his plan :P |
| My first guess is the vendor of beer haha But after hearing more explanation of Tokuchi, it's the drum! Tokuchi have so many money!! Did he already get his salary then? or from his gambling before? Why he needs more money if he have so much? Hmmm.. or he just love the thrill of gambling? |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Our mans really said "Fat Lips" LOLOLOLLLLLLL XDDD Manager Mihara is a simpleton. I knew a monetary bribe would get him right back on track lmao The drum revelation is absolutely insane ;O Wonder who thought of it lol. It's p genius hahah |
| With the drum's beats being the most notable sound that can be heard throughout the stadium, it should've been more noticeable for the others but the pressure of winning the game must've prevented them from thinking out of the box. It was very entertaining to see Toua reveal the secret behind the stolen signs and I'm very excited to see them smash that dirty tactic into the ground and eventually see them bring out another one for them to crush. Shame on you, Mihara. Once a dog for money, always a dog for money. I can't really blame him for giving in in front of that many cash though. It was really funny seeing him make the bunt gestures though lmao |
 |
| The drum is their signal, Im not sure how they can understand various signs only with this though. The coach has a lot of funny faces xD |
 |
| I love how he changed the managers mind so easily with such a great offer |
 |
| boy im right lmao, i mean it's obvious they hint it a lot |
| Fat Lips bruhhhh. Honestly though, everyone works for money. Can't blame him. And now that Toua has figured out the shady signs, he is using it against them. I guess this match will end in the next episode. |
 |
| Excellent! Now he won't bother the team. |
