Synopsis

Hiro has two loves: baseball and porn, but due to an elbow injury, gives up baseball, choosing a school with no baseball team. His childhood friend Hikari attends a different school with baseball ace Hideo. The two of them wish that Hiro had not given up baseball. Hiro joins the soccer team and meets Haruka, a very clumsy girl who is also the daughter of his father's boss. Haruka is the manager of the unofficial baseball club at Hiro's school. When the soccer team challenges the baseball club to a game, with hopes of humiliating them, the baseball club nearly loses until Hiro, disgusted by the soccer team's arrogance, switches to the baseball club.

i actually enjoyed this very much.
facts, developments, thoughts, emotions are brought to the audience in a very unique way. mainly through the dialogues the viewer could grasp quite a rich world around this baseball boys and their girls. these dialogues are far from being mainstreamed. open, doubting, unclear - freely, the protagonists are communicating. together with the excellent use of some other rather complex literary methods, like leaving the important unsaid, using details to unfold the complete a.o.; and the clever split of the medias to create wrong predictions or also intend contradictions between the heard and the shown, the told and the ...

Worst romance story I've seen, great baseball story. Watch this anime if you enjoy sports anime, do NOT watch this for the romance/character progression.

This anime was a great baseball story, and I'm not a baseball fan. I loved cross game so decided to give this a try. This is like cross game, except imo all the good romance from cross games is thrown out the window.

*Spoilers* On why romance/characters are bad:
Aside from baseball and trying to get to the tournament, the main conflict is Hiro's unricipricated love for his childhood friend Haruka, whom he set up with his other childhood friend Hideo. Haruka ...
