One Outs

[The Chaos]

I Didn't See any Thread About it And It Aired Today

Story

The story begins when Hiromichi Kojima, the star batter of the fictional Lycaons in Japan's Pacific League, heads to the southern Japanese island of Okinawa to train and bring himself out of a slump. There, he meet Tōa Tokuchi, a 134-kmph (83 miles per hour) pitcher and the undisputed king of a gambling form of baseball called "One Out." At Kojima's urging, Tokuchi signs up with the Lycaons under an unusual contract: he gets 5,000,000 yen (about US$46,000) for every out he pitches, but loses 50,000,000 yen (US$460,000) for every point he gives up.

The story seems interesting and the first episode is quiet good.

same makers of kaiji!!! should be entertaining

The original manga of this anime adaptation is by Shinobu Kaitani, who also created Liar Game, which I'm reading right now. Liar Game was adapted into a live action series in Spring 2007.

The team from Akagi and Kaiji is onboard so I'm expecting interesting character designs and an awesome OST!

Just curious, is anyone planning on subbing this? It'd be a pity for this to go unsubbed.

[Gameboiye]

I too am hoping this will get subbed. I promiss Pie and Cookies for all!!

[acid_finger]

I loved the first 2 episodes.
My knowledge of Japanese is very small, so i too hope some fansub to pick it up.

[Eric10301]

I sure hope someone picks this up. There is a lot of over subbing this fall season *cough* Tales of the Abyss *cough* among others, while this show goes unsubbed.

[Acseru]

Yeah, I agree. Some group should start subbing this. Piece of art like this and no subbers? What a pity.

Hopefully someone starts subbing this series, gambling anime is always relevant to my interests!

[Chrno2]

Tomodachi wants to sub this anime, but need a translator for it to do so.

Liar's game is a great manga... but why would anyone accept a deal that horrible.
I know 83mph fast ball is nothing to sneeze at but still. Thats over more than 3 innings of outs he has to get without a run. A low scoring game will net you some nice cash, but a high scoring game will ruin you.

some subgroup called B2E picked this up already and released ep 1 so can we get this in the subsection now lol

I'm Really Glad to See This anime Got Subbed

And Madhouse is getting damn good at it too. Some people criticize their gambling shows, but I for one think they're masters at it.

Wish someone better would sub this, the timing makes me not want to watch these fansubs :S

[Wavie]

Huh? The timing in the subs was just fine didn't notice any off timing subtitles.

Anyways the first episode was pretty good. Will keep following this series. Oh and the OP gave me a bunch of inner feelings I've never felt before.

[XenophunK]

Three words.

This. Is. Awesome.
