EPISODE REVIEWS
High-stakes Major League game choreography takes focus. The animation shines during a fierce regular-season matchup, using rapid camera panning to capture the raw speed of a line-drive home run ball flying into the upper decks. The bright, explosive cheers and flashing stadium displays elevate the high-octane team spirit.
It is indeed a healing episode, as Goro was on his road to mental recovery. I felt the uneasiness lingering in this ep, something unsettling like what Peter had felt. The visuals were good and it perfectly portrayed the gloomy mood of the atmosphere. And Goro was being put to the test on that cliffhanger got intriguing and got me really hooked.
This episode is a little cozy, but there's still a lot of tension. In fact, the tension kept me on the edge of my seat because it's so vital to Goro's development. That said, Billy is a really great psychologist, and I like his methods. On another note, I really like the craftsmanship in this episode. The final scene was especially great and affected my mood so much.
