EPISODE REVIEWS

Goro's long-awaited return to the professional mound introduces a highly dramatic, intense visual aesthetic. The graphics use a distinct, high-contrast visual filter focusing on Goro's trembling hands and erratic pitch-trajectory charts. The animation captures the wild, unpredictable movement of the ball, creating immense athletic dread.

This was probably the most problematic and heartbreaking episode. I felt bad for Goro, as he had been in that state for a long time and still searching for what motivation he truly desires. The tone was worrisome and doubtful, as the plot continued to rip my heart out. The pacing was slow as we could see the development Goro was in. The emotions were heavy and still unsettling.

This episode is just so-so. It's very narrative-driven, so it isn't as exciting as I was hoping it would be. That said, while I think the story and progression are quite good, I can't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the current pacing. I just wish Goro could pick himself up soon.
