I saw that coming from several thousand miles away, this series is so predictable in all the worst ways :/

This romance stuff is the weakest part of the show. Very sitcom style with all these coincidences and misunderstandings. I really can't bring myself to care about these sort of relationships that never develop until the final episode.

I've seen a lot of clumsy, perfunctory romances before but this is still surprisingly bad.

I really loved this anime at first because it was about girls kicking ass at a predominately male sport and overcoming those obstacles, but by this point all of that is being destroyed by a boy???? UGH. *puke*

Yeah I had to drop it here. There should have just been 13 episodes. When I was watching Taisho Baseball Girls I caught seeing it compared to this. But not only is that comparison really superficial, that show didn't have this garbage.

that ending was great hope Ryou wakes up and know that the guy is not a good guy. If he was he not would have kiss Izumi, him doing so further prove he like to play with their emotions.

For better or worse, Princess Nine is most definitely a shoujo anime. I'm not even sure how Izumi knew the exact time and place where Hiroki would be.

@mellow-osity Unfortunately, this happens a lot for series aimed at girls. It's as if they don't know the appeal of their own series. A sports anime that's 24 episodes long and we've only properly seen 3 games, and they glazed over 3 other games (2 with the MC and 1 with her love interest). In a sports anime, they decided to skip the sports. Brilliant...

@Shocked Attack No 1 is a Shoujo anime, and it didn't focus on romance to the detriment of sports. Attack No 1 had a lot of matches and tournaments.
