I can see where this is going now. The team does have a lot of issues (some minor, some a little more important) that you wouldn't notice at first glance. Minami's job will be to help them overcome them, as well as act as a mediator (or interpreter) between the coach and the team. I like the characters so far: the seemigly cold but thoughtful coach, the shy and lonely co-manager, the sensitive pitcher, the lovely Yuki (I wouldn't be surprised if one of the guys joined the team for her
), ...
I'm glad Kana-chan wasn't typecasted and was given Yuki's role instead of Ayano's.
