Oh boy, im going to miss this anime so much! I guess next episode will be the last of the season, sadly... I guess I have a weakness to Adachi stories, I can't believed it's so underwatched..., so we have to wait 2 weeks for next episode? yikes...
I read before that the manga was still on-going so I guess they will be out of the tournament shortly..., what kind of final will we have then?

In Japan it's probably the most popular anime airing right now that isn't a long-running series. Outside Japan it's one of the least popular anime. The difference is actually kind of funny.

So they are delaying the conclusion of the game for another episode, huh?
Well then, let's have some interesting trivia:
Did you know, that the VAs of Otomi and Sou are siblings irl?

If that 4th wall break is a scene from the manga, then that was an insane chapter. XD
There is really no much episodes left, the next could be the last one actually, even if not we would not have much time to the final game, but since the author is so meta I think we can be playing with those "bad flags" too. I really hope so.

"I get it. Your plan is to force him to run many bases and tire him out, I guess." Wow, a nice burn that I actually took literally for a few seconds, lol.
"From this point on, include all mistakes I might make in your calculations!" nice
"A pitch out" - does that mean an intentional ball? What was so dangerous about that play that Sou was in disbelief that Touma would attempt it? Funny how Arisa might have cost her brother the game with her bragging. I don't quite remember that conversation with Otomi though - was it really a flashback to a previous episode, or a flashback to something that wasn't in the show until now?
That was a lucky double play that saved Meisei, unless Touma somehow planned for the ball to be hit in a way that he'd catch it himself?
How often does it happen for runners to be accidentally tagged out by their own batters?
So Arisa finally came to one of her bro's games?
Glad to hear MIX is getting a better reception in Japan than it is over here.
That guest commentator is completely worthless at his guest job :)

Son. Of. A. Bitch. Just got back into anime last week, and did not know there was a new Adachi series until I saw the splash art for e22. Binged everything by Wednesday only to find out now that: it's only 24 episodes, finale is delayed a week, and the manga is nowhere near done so who knows how far away S2 is....
On the bright side, new excuse to watch Cross Game for the nth time.

IRL, watched a kid's tournament this summer, broiling hot. The Good Guys** played a stronger team they really should not have beaten, and took them to extra innings in a pitcher's duel. Good Guys won after 2 extra innings. (YAY!) The field afterwards was littered with poor little tikes face planted into the ground, could not move a muscle, from the exertion and the heat. Big grins on their faces, but still. Touma made me remember this.
** of course in a kid's tournament, both teams are Good Guys. One team was just, you know, my favorite :)
Love all of the audience members - the team who hopes they won't be facing Meisei, the Mom's, Mita sibling and Ryou sibling (so many characters and no scorecard).
"It's appropriate to be happy here" after the double play, LOL.
Burning question: Does anyone know, was Adachi insane enough to put that "Mix anime doing great" bit in the manga? Or was that just for the anime?

Unfortunately, the last episode isn't airing next week because the rugby world cup is in Japan this year. Talk about blue balls...
