Major S3

The pacing for this episode went down the line, as the team dynamics were being tested out as Goro was temporarily out of the picture. The tone was definitely in low-spirits, as the team was dispirited. One of them stepping up was a pivotal character development. The "bed of roses" sound-like intro was truly deceptive to hear.

The pacing in this episode was extremely slow, laying the series' solid plot and character developments. The unexpected visitor was so sudden and felt like it was rushed to put into the story. Nevertheless, the flow was getting deep into action and the unsettling feelings somehow was rising as some familiar faces were shown again.

That was an emotional episode. The will of Goro was totally remarkable. The visuals set the mood engrossingly, along with the somberness of the color palette. The tone was solemnly beautiful, particularly that spotlight on the mound. It's nice to see one familiar face at this crucial time that brought me tears, with the pacing just perfectly executed. It was nice of Toshi to come off the field out of concern.

What a turn of events! It was a pretty intense episode, both on the field and in the dugout. The spotlight was on Toshiya and hats off to him for a job well done! The match was breathtaking, and both teams never backed down. Egashira just lost it and it was entertaining to watch.The tone at the end was grim with that cryptic scene.

Another slow burn pacing with Goro's side of character building. It was quite unexpected of him to have another reserved and experimental strategy, and personally, I'm hopeful that he can manage and to see him doing it in the future. The tone was definitely troubling, but the tense and heavy load were a kind of challenge to make Goro solid in his decisions. The animation quality escalated in this ep.

The pacing was a bit slowed down in this episode. The anticipation somehow subsided after the strategy took place. Goro's spirit somehow got low after Toshiya's plan. But overall, the atmosphere was heavy along with how heavy the downpour was. Totally an absorbing ep this was. And that cliffhanger is a twist that will shift the tone of the plot.

This episode was entertaining, mentally and visually. The match actions were extremely gripping that will make you at the edge of your seat, and you will forget to gasp for air. The pacing was tense as the tone was getting serious and provocative at the same time. Feeling that vibe of Goro and Taiga in their own pinch moment!

This ep was indeed unexpected. Never thought of them reuniting on a different side, but the new ED hit hard, especially that last picture. The music was great and it should have been the ED from the start, with the visuals being nostalgic and sentimental, instead of Shimizu just running. Well, the pacing was high stakes as the plot was getting interesting.

That still-frame ending of Goro was picture-perfect! The close-up visual was beautiful! And that batting animation of him was peak, except for Komori's running animation from the third. He was running weird in that scene, though. However, the intensity was high, the pacing was perfect, and where the plot is going is thrilling!

The pacing for this episode was slowed down. The tone was kind of disappointing as the intensity of the match kind of died down at the middle of the ep. Hence, the music intensifies the energy of the characters, as well as the mind-blowing strategies by Komori. The animation quality as well as the artwork are definitely notably great in the match.

So, that's how you've done it. Taiga stepped up his game! Had a glimpse of the Mifune's inside story and the tone was definitely nostalgic to see some familiar faces in action again. Felt this unsettling yet thrilling vibe of what had yet to come. The pacing was tense as the match was just starting.

This was a totally compelling episode. The tension was extremely high that the emotions felt were gripping that would make you at the edge of your seat. Truly, a heartbreaking moment for Goro, but the overwhelming spirit lifted the tone of this ep to trust and hard work. The cliffhanger was just anticipating to get over.

The pacing is still slow in this episode. Taiga's criticisms were far too early to conclude the outcome. The tone became provoking and intense in that sense, but Goro, being his usual self, stayed in the mood as optimistic and uplifting in his words and actions. However, the animation quality was obviously the best this season.

The ep was full of tension from the start and gave quite a nerve-racking tone to watch since the team was just new. That upbeat background music playing during the match contributes to the thrilling mood of the episode. Goro's fascinating pitching animation was peak! And that cliffhanger was dreadful!

This episode showed how serious and passionate Goro is towards baseball. Felt nostalgic seeing his perseverance since the Little League before. The tone was optimistic, along with relatable struggles on a beginner level. Didn't see that twist coming, and so it was negatively accepted. The pace was slow but I think it was a good way to begin everything.

Such an inspiring episode this was. Truly, the tone was promising and full of hope. The first half was so engaging and felt nostalgic to see how Goro was in the situation where he started his first team. The pacing was tense, but the plot outcome was a success. The animation quality totally improved in this season.

What an amazing first half! Goro never ceases to amaze everyone, along with the opponent's perspective. Also fascinated by how Shimizu was able to do that fearlessly. The animation was definitely peak by far, particularly Goro's pitching with the smooth impact of the legs, and so the art style and pacing. The second half's tone was unconcerned and provocative.

"This was a pretty exciting episode. The desperation of Goro to build a foundation was pure dedication and inspiring yet, quite hilarious. The addition of Miho to the characters was an interesting move in the romance side. The tone of this ep was promising, the pacing was just perfect, and that animation of Goro pitching was so cool! Thought the guitar outro by the end scene was the intro of "Bed of Roses."

Liked how the pacing was natural and not rushed in this finale episode. It was really satisfying to see them after their grueling match and they were all back to their own dream goals. The fireworks' scene was cinematic and reminded me of Risa at LoveCom. That scene with Goro and Hideki was somber but beautiful. He seemed too ambitious once again and maybe I'm predicting a deja vu-like outcome.

The episode was exciting! With Goro's never-ending spirit, he was holding and kept on going! Never thought that the Kaido team had just first heard about that miserable incident, and was kind of relief that it have been open and to know where Goro's was coming from. The visuals and the weather where I'm at have the same gloominess and anxious vibes.
