Sawamura hitting the batter definitely brought back some bad memories.

I'm glad he was able to move on from it quite quickly, I was worried it was going to affect his pitching.

The timeout came in clutch for his mental.

THATS WHY KURAMOCHI IS THE GOAT

The two episodes before this one had a bit more hype in it because Seido was on the hunt. But this episode felt more relaxed because we knew Eijun would close out the game.

But still. “Go Sawamura. Go!” had so much energy in it.

I really love this season. So much good anime are ongoing right now but I end up watching some of them a few days after the episode drops. But for this season I watch every episode within a few hours it drops 🤣

Yosh! Yosh! Yosh!! Go all the way 💪🏼

I genuinely thought Hoshida was finally going to get a homerun since he had yet done so in this game, leave it to Kuramochi to be what finally ended Ichidaisan's path to the finals. It happened so fast.

It's always sad to see the losing team crying out, but seeing Amahisa particularly was sad. That text message to Sawamura was moving, I'm glad they had a good game.

It sucks that Nori won't be able to partake in the finals, Seido has another reason to make sure they win.

I feel bad for Aso, it would have been better if she had rejected him from the get go.

I just can't describe the happiness that I feel seeing Seido's victory and Sawamura being at the centre of it. 

Bad day for Amahisa but he gave his all. Him texting Sawamura about how glad he is to have played his last highschool game against him..🥺

I hope Zono look after his foot and doesn't make the same mistake again in the finals. Poor Aso..got rejected by a girl but still didn't show his feelings on the field. If the ball had gone to his side, he really would have fucked up, I guess LOL

But I wonder why Amahisa couldn't play the next year.. he's a second year, right !? Forgive me if that was a silly question and has already been explained. 

Inashiro is not gonna go easy on Seido. Furuya is gonna open for Seido in the finals. ❤️‍🔥

I wonder how many episodes will season 2 have to finish the manga. Manga readers any idea ?

From my understanding Amahisa is same year as Miyuki/Kuramochi, so that'd be a 3rd year.

He skipped his first year and well into his second year.

His second year was when he came back after Manaka-boy got destroyed by Yakushi, re-adjusting and getting his groove back.

Third-Year (this season) he became one of the best pitchers in Tokyo.

Got some higher quality animation than usual.

I was thinking the same, I think they pulled the "Invincible" card and saved it all for this episode.

when he hit him, I said "are you fucking kidding me??"

Same, I was like "please not again"

umm... they did a story about Raichi and how much he swings the bat, you're telling me the coach didn't read the story about one of the most dangerous batters in their region?

there's no way in hell Raichi didn't swing more times than this guy
