Subs are out. :)

Anyway, great game. Always awesome to see Goro pitching. Although seems like there's some jealousy among the clubhouse. Let's see how this affects the team.

Lol isn't it more like GORO SHE-GAN-O!!!<~ how they pronounced it in Minor League games?
I can't wait til the subbers catch up to the most recent episodes. Goro's pitching rules ;P; love the fork ball. I think goro should create another gyro-ball fusion type thing or was it said that he couldn't because his fingers aren't used to it?

Heh, a great comeback, but a predictable one for this series. But there seems to be some dissension in the ranks.

Haha, love that fake scaredy face of Goro when he was batting. I was like "what? he's afraid?" at first. And that fat Tendo! Jealous much. Although I was really expecting Mayamura. Haven't seen him pitch in a while.

That sudden shift of hope to despair to hope and celebration was brilliant. My jaw dropped and I couldn't stop shouting when it showed the kid in the stands. Toshiya's finest play in 5 seasons.

If anyone should be sour shouldn't it be Mayumura? Being told to warm-up in the very first inning yet not getting to pitch once. Yet that dude with the red nose seems dissatisfied despite the fact that Goro pitched something like 4-5 perfect innings. Not sure why you would complain about that, especially when it was clear as day that he was the one who turned the game around.

^^Agree!

An amazing episode again! This season is my favourite so far. Jealousy of the other members is inevitable, I wonder how they'll handle it. Waku waku suru~ :D

Dat pic of Shigeharu and Shigeno... (╥﹏╥)
He's watching...

Anyway, Goro was such a boss in this episode. Fuck that Tendo at the end! Who the fuck is that guy anyway? I don't remember him at all. Did he got hit on the nose or something?

Toshiya hitting that homerun was predictable, but watching Goro feint that shitty swing was hilarious. It was to see the smug faces of the opponent battery, it was priceless.

Amazing performance from Sato and Gorou. Almost hard to believe how far they've come. Would have liked to see the reactions of all their friends in Japan watching them on TV.
Also, Mayumura should pitch.

I like how the story manges to put Goro x Toshi combo from time to time but not always.

That was a fun game. I do hope that we get to see Mayumura pitch sometime soon though.

I already don't like Tengo.

Chiharu's cheering was cute.

In terms of sports anime hype this was probably one of the best episodes of the whole anime.

Gorou was amazing.

Nice to see Goros Forkball; it worked!

Alreasy the middle of Season 5... I just remember when Goro lost his father and fought in every single game since then to beat Gibson... wow, hes close now.

Freaking nice Anime!
My only regret is having regrets!

Mayamura is probably my favorite character of this series. He never gets butthurt or overly pissed. He's just a cool, calm and collected individual. I know when we get to see him pitch again Goro is gonna have to watch out

extreme intense episode! everything was great - the pace, the OST, the characters!
i liked how the coach found goro to be shounen anime get-out-of-trouble character, not that's anything new to us.
i very much loled when they showed that kid who catches toshi's hit.
and though i didn't want to admit it, but silva were right that goro has led japan to win, as the coach said goro really bear the whole team on his shoulders.

Catching Toshi's homerun must've totally made that little kids day.

Awesome match, I can't belief the venezuelans actually fell for Goro's dumb bluff on not being able to bat mainly since this is the World cup of all places where you would expect the strongest players are and not someone would couldn't bat lol.
