Ep 11 was nice =) and I love the end.
First time Kraft wins a match vs "the evil rotten to the core master mind"

Two more awesome eps to go. And I do not know if I should be happy(two more eps) or sad(only two more eps)

klare · 2011-03-23, 10:55

a fine eps, it finished in 1 eps

if they can complete the next arc in eps 12, then we might get the final arc in the manga for eps 13

I guess I am stupid or something...I didn't get the end - in whos mind they were trapped? Princes?
I also did not get the ending of episode with the Alien Queen and her girl/boy boyfriend....what exactly did they do????
I'm losing it....:-(

brocko · 2011-03-23, 22:52

I'm assuming they all returned by playing out and finishing the game, thus achieving the purpose and intent of the image training. However it seems like only the baseball stadium was affected and managed to return from the subconsciousness. The Prince is still stuck there since he got hit out of the park by Yukitake and couldn't make it back in time haha

As for who's mind they were stuck in, i think the authour wanted it to be open ended. Perhaps it was a collective subconsciousness of the entire baseball team that they were trapped in, who knows.

SeijiSensei · 2011-03-23, 23:06

I thought perhaps it was Craft's mind. He is under a lot of stress most of the time. I suppose you could say it was intentionally left open, but I was wholly unsatisfied with the ending. The first four episodes and the arc with the alien princess were, to my mind, substantially better than the sentai episodes or this one.

How come Yukitake looks and sounds so old? It's bothered me since episode one. He's a first-year high schooler, no? How come he appears to be 25? Miho's character model also seems pretty mature for someone of 14-15, too, and her seiyuu also sounds much older than that.

brocko · 2011-03-23, 23:24

Because if he and she were any younger, we'd all be complaining about them like the Sentai kids

I'm just glad they're getting more screentime again. Here's hoping that they show up in the final episode as well

Jonothon · 2011-03-24, 02:28

At the end of the inning, when he was so upset, he mention that he had been image training. I think that they came out of his subconscious after they demonstrated that they could play competitively with the favorites to win the tournament, so they did not get to finish the game in the fake stadium, but came back to reality to compete for real.. (Un)fortunately, they left the prince behind...

Ahh, I see, it was sorta anti-climatic - I was waiting for resolution and then it was over...

You know looking back, you're probably right. There was that one player who Kraft and co. were checking out just standing in a daze outside the stadium at one point during the episode. It was probably his mind they got sucked into, couldn't tell if he was actually the pitcher or not though.

ITA - one of the reasons I love this show. Yukitaka will be pissed, we'll be trolled, and it will be fun. Everything else is a crapshoot.

Spoiler for 12:

Kanon · 2011-03-29, 18:03

She's definitely the mastermind of this arc, but an evil one? Nah.

FlavorOfLife · 2011-03-29, 21:12

One problem is that she might have taken the rumor of Baka going to destroy the universe to heart, which might lead her to try and make it happen.

Overall good episode

Dang, is that a Camaro?

LunaNeko · 2011-03-29, 22:41

If she ends up being a psyco-bitch that might actually score her some points with Prince. Although if would be lame if he were to fall for someone, lol. I love the fact that its so unpredictable, can't wait for next week!

ars89 One-Eyed Dragon Join Date: Sep 2010 Location: NJ, USA	Spoiler for ep 12: Mohan definitely is similar to Prince. The Princess is sweet. Glad we got Yukitaka and Miho again. Their interactions with Prince are always great. So Colin is a spy, i wonder what they've been planning the whole time. No idea how its going to turn out, but i like it. Not surprising that Prince was the same as a child, but interesting to see. __________________ My Anime List

Kanon Kana Hanazawa ♥ Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: France Age: 37	Spoiler for episode 12: Nice cliffhanger. I'm dying to find out what was in that envelope. Mohan is very different from his brother, and yet very similar. The main difference between the two of them is that Mohan is a very serious person whereas Baka is... well, you know. Mohan is definitely better suited to become King. The Princess is pretty cute. The Prince should seriously consider marrying her. She's probably the only person in the universe who can put up with his horrible personality. Those flashbacks were adorable. __________________
