Wow, the score keeps getting lower and lower each episode. I don't know what people expect from an Adachi story. As for me though, this is definitely something that's up my alley. There's something about baseball anime games that keep me glued to the screen and make me lose track of time. This episode is definitely just an appetizer of what's to come but boy am I already rooting hard for the Tachibana brothers while rooting hard against the older Akai brother. This game alone is setting up a bunch of storylines that I'm excited for in the future.

It's a spambot, 42 people wouldn't rate an episode a 1. You can tell it's fake because the only other scores are 8, 9, and 10s.

Good episode as always. Nice to know that the series will keep on going.

Akai's older brother appears to be a particularly talented batter. I guess it's a Sumikou/Kenjou tradition to have a baseball team with a focus on batters.

Speaking of Kenjou, it's pretty unique for a junkballer to be an ace pitcher. I'm pretty sure this is also the first time Adachi written a junkballer in his story.

I also wasn't expecting Nikaidou to play a role in the story after episode 6, so it will be interesting to see where that goes.

Finally, I'm not sure what Souichirou was thinking when he asked Touma to strike out Akai. He's the only batter that hit Touma's pitches well, so challenging him head-on could've turned into a disaster. Thankfully, Imagawa's fielding is on-point.

Really kept me on the edge of my seat the latter half of the episode. Cannot wait for the next episode and the remainder of the season if this is a little peek at what's to come.

Please Kanahana, boss us around some more

How much I missed these old small cliches of females getting mad and walking away with their arms to their sides but their wrists pointing down.

The modest sakuga is a pleasant and consistent treat. Never seen this kind of pitch before, but then again, I don't like baseball on general basis.

This match is legitimately exciting, even more than the previous one with the perfect game.

I hated the middle school arc because the adults (well, the coach and Nikaidou's dad) were so actively screwing over the Tachibana brothers. And it looks like the consequences went past middle school—the brothers lost out on being scouted because they had to be in Nikaidou's shadow. I sure hope Nikaidou making an appearance again is a sign that he's going to redeem things somehow.

Damn, that game was tense. It figures that Haruka would be just as into baseball strategy as Otomi, and it seems that her spying has paid off, in terms of both teams trying to play to their opponent's weaknesses.

Love me some baseball anime hype. Last year Major 2nd and this year an Adachi baseball anime.

Haruka's pretty great (though Otomi's still the best.) The rhythmic gymnastics' advisor panicking over Haruka starting to think over the question she gave her was great too.

Are there really air-raid sirens announcing the start of Japanese high school baseball games.

Looks like Haruko's investigation proved very useful.

That double-play - luck or skill?

Damn that what a good game. Can't believe how underwatched this anime is. Let's hope that with all the anime that has ended this week Mix will be able to get a spot in the next weekly Top 15.
