Ace of Diamond

The pacing is not that good, but the waiting is worth it. Everytime Sawamura (The MC) is able to complete, what he was fighting for you are as happy as him, and the anime hypes you up to grow yourself.

When I first watched this anime I'm not gonna lie that I'm one of those fans that complain about "Oh look another Furuya episode" and it's just so frustrating to see that he is so overrated and I hate how he overshadows Sawamura in most part but hey after rewatching the anime for the millionth time without skipping any episode I came to appreciate every character and even the baby-steps progress Sawamura has gone through plus the rivalry he has with Furuya that comes with bromance are to die for! This is probably the only anime that I came to the extent of learning how to read a Manga because I'm that obsessed with this Anime!

This story is incredible-it made me laugh, cry, and experience a whirlwind of emotions. It's truly heartwarming to witness the struggles, progress, failures, and successes of the main character and the team.

The bond between the team members is beautifully portrayed, and every character is very well-written. I feel this anime is highly underrated and deserves much more recognition.

The baseball games in the series are also thrilling. Even though I knew nothing about baseball before, the story was so compelling that I ended up searching for the basics on YouTube just to better enjoy the matches.

I highly recommend this anime to anyone who loves sports and friendship-driven stories!

I stumbled across this anime after watching Hajime no Ippo, Captain Tsubasa, Yowamushi Pedal and One Outs, they got me hooked to sports anime, I had high expectation from this one since it had a very good rating but it was very disappointing. How should I put it, it's more of a SLICE OF LIFE anime rather than a Sports anime. When I watched Hajime no ippo I felt so pumped up I started working-out, One Outs showed me how much a baseball game weighs upon the pitcher, and so on.

This anime is kinda like fairy tail, it has overpowered characters but the plot, back stories, character development are too shallow. There are brief moments when they actually do sports but most of the time it's just gags and other stuff.

If you looking for a baseball anime to watch, this ain't the one, The one that comes recommended is ONE OUTS. Peace

This anime perfectly captures the intensity and emotional highs of competitive sports. The animation during key matches is fluid and dynamic, with just the right amount of exaggeration to make every moment feel epic. I love the way the story works, not all the Protagonist always win from the start, they have to lose at some point and go through some hard mental and physical training. Whether you're into sports or not, the energy and passion are infectious. It's not just about winning-it's about growth, friendship, and pushing past your limits. This is a highly recommended anime, can't wait for new seasons.
