Though I find the game quite boring, I'm happy that the farm team wins. I love the p*ssed off look on Coach Daimon's face! This is a very good ending for a coach who is over-hyped.As for episode 17, I love the interaction between Yuuhei and Kou. They work surprisingly well together in those light-hearted moments.
What's Hot?Momiji and cat - the song is really cute.
Even though Kou is playing quite well, Aoba is still disappointed with his performance. - Good kick! ^-^
The suspicious looking old man is the Chairman of Seishuu High School. - No surprise at all. I expect him to be someone important.
Aoba hits a single, then steals second and third before scoring on Senda's sacrifice fly. - Girl power!!
During the final inning, Yuuhei asks Coach Daimon if he wished he had better batters in his lineup, such as Miki. Yuuhei also tells Coach Daimon that Kou is the best pitcher they have played against all year. - I love his p*ssd off look!
Farm team wins! - Hurray! The evil coach is finally fired!
After the game, Acting Principle and Coach Daimon are fired, and most of the transfer players also leaves Seishuu. Only Yuuhei stays at Seishuu and he begins living with the Kou because the dorm is closed down. - Their personalities are poles apart but they surprisingly get along quite well under one roof.
In front of Yuuhei, Kou admits that he likes Wakaba. - I think this is the first time Kou actually explicitly admits that.
To get the five most persistent boys to stop asking her out, Aoba goes on a date with all five. - Great idea! This is a good way to get rid of persistent guys.
Kou finds out about Junpei's past from Aoba. He also learns that Yuuhei is trying to reach Koushien in his place. When Aoba asks Kou whether he's serious about going to Koushien, he answers yes as he wants to make Wakaba's last dream come true. - I wonder if they will reach the goal in the 2nd or 3rd year.
What's Not?Cross Game is great as a romance comedy and slice of life series. However, as a sports series, I think it lacks impact and excitement. I'm actually happy that the game between the First team and Farm team has ended as I rather watch the characters in their daily lives than during games.
