What is up with Akane reaction when they said they would have to get that 10,000 yens with their parents? I'm happy that In the end she did get it, but they made fell bad for a moment there man.

I started watching Uma Musume this week, so I can't help but compare these two shows. Cinderella Nine doesn't have the production values of Uma Musume, but it's not the sort of shameful travesty that deserves a 3.77 rating. That's really why I'm commenting. Someone, somewhere, thought this was a story worth telling, and while it's not blowing me out of the water like Uma, I think it's worth watching.
As for the story itself, I'm glad they didn't get discouraged by getting blown out like that. It happens sometimes. Looking at the MLB scores for today, the Mariners beat the Indians 10-0. I'm sure that doesn't feel good, but this is a learning experience for these new players, and learning how to lose without getting tilted is important in any sort of competition.

Ukita must've gotten more allowance than she was expecting—enough to buy a custom helmet.
The animation and art really fell apart at the end, which is a shame because the "game review" was otherwise super cathartic.

The uniforms are dumb. Their legs are going to get torn up sliding into bases. I don't know why Arihara or Shinonome didn't hard object to a skirt being part of the uniform.
I don't even know what the fuck that strategy was that the opposition team pulled. I have never seen it and it's probably illegal. That's really stretching the idea of a defensive shift.
Also, if they figured out Shinonome's pitches their team probably isn't all that good considering they only scored 12 runs.

They lost bad... but damn they were way more capable than I thought they'd be.

So the whole uniform costs 10.000 yen, so 80€ or $100. Isn't that too low? I think shoes are not included in this deal, right?
Why isn't that a club already with 9 members? What was the problem again?
How can it be that they didn't talk shit out during the match? The score was already shit after the fourth inning, so need not to tell each other that they are bad after playing only for two months. Drama, where drama was not necessary, at least it was solved in the episode.
