This was supposed to start today, but NHK has announced it is being preempted for disaster news. Eps 1-3 are now scheduled for Saturday afternoon, with 4-6 on next Monday, and the rest one a day from Tuesday to Friday, for a total of ten episodes.
So this is not, as I expected, really a spring show, but will complete its run within the winter season, by going at a rate of one a day rather than one a week. They are still full-length episodes, though. In fact, this is the winter show I had the most hopes for, and still do.

Moshidara is something that I am looking forward to, largely due to how much Peter Drucker has had an impact on my own view towards the corporate-nonprofit-governmental relationship. I think I would derail the topic if I were to lament about this too much, but the existence of Moshidara is very much related to the impact this management guru has had.

Moophase and the Fansubwiki list this as starting April 25th. Just a few posts up though... There's a (*) but I have no clue where to read what the asterisk means.

Well the first episode is out so shouldn't this be moved the newer series section?
First episode was alright, but I felt it was paced a bit too slow. Though it has the potential to get more interesting, but we'll see.

Spoiler for Episode 1:
Besides this and [c], this season is gonna be the best season for business and economics students. Seriously, i bet the otakus will be scoring 100% marks for their Economics/Commerce tests in college this spring! Is anyone surprised that Peter Drucker himself can get himself his own anime, and not Ayn Rand?

Is that Fujibayashi Ryou? I'm pretty sure that's Fujibayashi Ryou...
Anyway, I couldn't help but think the first episode was rather bland. I can't say I'm particularly interested in any of the others on any real level. It would've helped of they had better comedy to give it more charm.

The first episode was interesting. The two main characters are very likable. The artstyle is simple but pleasing to the eyes. I'm very curious to find out how exactly a simple manager will be able to lead a baseball team to victory, and how Peter Drucker's management techniques are going to help.

Moshidora - Episode 01
Heck yeah, an educational anime! We need more of these.
It's interesting how Minami tries to translate the business-centered phrases to fit baseball management. This show encourages us to think out of the box and use educational resources that are available in different possible situations than the obvious. Of course business management is the largest field of management, but Moshidora shows us that a lot of useful knowledge in general management can be filtered out from it. The only possible issue is that I hope this show is realistic or plausible in its application of management, which any business students here could easily tell better than me. Of course, we aren't just left with hard management here. We've gotten a decent amount of character background to garner our interests and care about what happens next. We also are getting an idea of the characters' goals and expectations, which will surely play a direct part in the management aspect of this anime. But what is Yuuki's medical issue that has been hampering her all these years? Is it a nervous system disorder? Edit: It turns out that there is a brief Economist article on the original novel. The breakthrough popularity of the novel has led to significantly increased sales of Drucker's Management - Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices textbook.

The episode didn't really stand out.. and at times seem flat. It doesn't help that I'm not really interested in business and economics stuff. But I will continue to watch since it's a best seller. Hopefully the next few episodes will change my opinion

Learns that Minami started baseball management because of a childhood friend... yay!
Learns that said childhood friend is female... aww. Learns that Jirou played baseball together with Minami (thus childhood friend)... yay! Learns that Jirou is not the pitcher (usually its the pitcher that 'wins')... aww. Oh well, Moshidora is interesting enough to have me keep watching it (high school girl uses a book about management to take her team to Koushien?), despite me highly doubting there's romance in it. Damn you Adachi, got me addicted to baseball stories! Making me watch it despite romance is almost non-existent lols... :Heh: To be fair though, Minami herself is the draw to the show. From wondering to how she'll apply Drucker to baseball, to wondering why she hates the sport itself (big guess its about women not allowed to play baseball with men, but that's just speculation), it's her character that's the driving point of the show. Thumbs up for that.
