Diamond No Ace

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

Never thought I will get so interested in baseball but this anime made me to love baseball.

I didn't really know what baseball was before I watched this anime , but I never felt I was lacking any information. The animation is good , story line is good, characters are well written and matches are exciting. A must watch if u liked hajime no ippo and haikyuu

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.

Words cannot describe how amazing this show is I've watched literally every sports anime out there and I STILL think that diamond no ace is the best anime I've ever seen. <3 yes even better than Haikyu!
