Awesome episode!

It was entertaining as hell watching both teams bending the rules.

Watching the Mariners slowly descend into despair was epic.

HOLY SHIT! THE LYCAONS SCORED 16 FUCKING POINTS IN ONE INNING!

So Tokuchi's salary will be unaffected if this is a no-game? That makes more sense than what I was thinking of. I wonder what that bastard owner has up his sleeve...

I swear these episodes just keep 1-upping each other!

10/10

Awesome, next episode will be where the scanlators stopped for the manga . . . Finally get some new stuff to see. Anyways, loved this inning. Gotta feel for the opponent pitcher, playing for a team like that would suck.

I kept thinking of Death Note too when they kept saying Kira lol.

That was a great episode, Toua is so smart but the game is still going to resume anyway! D:

Well no one predicted that!

I wonder what the owner is going to do.

Great episode, best one so far. I love how Toua manipulated Light Kira to help him out to waste time. Oh, the game resumed ? Interesting. 5/5

I actually enjoyed the "rule breaking" competition at the beginning of the episode. It took all the rules I know about baseball and turned it on it's head.


Same! I loved it!

The game's going to continue. Let's hope Toua has some kind of a plan.

That episode was totally awesome. As soon as the commentators talked about anti-baseball, I was so excited to see all the shenanigans Toua would use!

Now, the situation certainly isn't good for Toua, but I think he expected corruption within the game. After all, it's been long enough that baseball totally left the fuck out of that game. The best that can happen to Toua is a fine from the league for this travesty, but he'll totally outwage it with his 20x bonus on the game, which will be reported.

His plan to split the team between the batters and the pitchers was really clever too. I hadn't noticed at all that he was destroying the mound on purpose. Toua is so freaking clever... But it's nice to see that he have rival that can be as clever. Takami is the only that could possible outwit him, but it won't happen. Because he doesn't have Toua coolness. Toua never seem struggling or not in control of the game. That's his best asset.

This was one of the funniest and most entertaining episodes.
Wonder why they decided to continue the game, maybe the Owner has a few connection to pull that off.

The mind games are amazing :D

Another Great Episode , It just feels a bit repetitive if they only focused on the baseball games .

Such an amazing episode.
Loved the first part, when Toua was wasting as much time as possible, that was awesome XD.
Toua's one step ahead, as always, and all of a sudden the game is tied XD.
Wonder if it was the owner who made the game resume....
Anyway, hope Toua gets this game cancelled *.*

They got 16 runs in a row, that's amazing, and the game is still going to continue.

Can't really blame Kira for wanting the game to be called as well with all the shit he had to deal with. Not to mention that his record would be stained if the game were to be completed.

Seems the POS of an Owner has a lot of influence to be causing the game to continue.

Lycaons managed to catch up that huge gape.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

That battle of intentional violations was very entertaining to watch, seeing how both teams kept on outsmarting each other by using loopholes but I'll have to admit that it's a very unprofessional way to play a game. If the game was considered void with the Mariners getting a 16-0 run advantage, the Lycaons would've been blasted by that but Toua masterfully controlled the situation into one that made them able to catch up to them!

As someone who only saw the batters as the most important part of the game back then, I felt pretty bad for not even thinking about the pitchers before this. Kira's situation was really tough and it was very satisfying to see them refuse to sacrifice their careers to win the game~

That damn owner will do everything in his power to make Toua his slave, huh.

Loved the battle of violations at the start. This was such an entertaining episode. Brooklyn please break some more bats lol.

And it looks like the game is still going to continue.

Considering he has such a good control over his fast pitches, he probably practised a lot for that. Watched baseball matches too. It isn't that surprising that he knows the rules.

Tokuchi's mastermind is out of my mortal thinking range. This "cat & mouse" turnaround had a brilliant setup.

I haven't checked the whole thread but as soon as I watched this episode I remembered this iconic comeback by a home team, from 7th inning onwards.
