>Battery - 11 [720p]
Well? Did you enjoy it?
Overall yeah, nice change from the usual type of sports anime, but that last episode sucked ass.
>>147609701
Did theyhold hands?
I like the soundtrack and visuals, but the overall thing is kinda boring to me. Also those schoolboys acting like middle aged drama people are weird af.
>>147609734
Nope.
What the hell was this last episode?I felt like the story went nowhere
So what the hell was this dude deal?
>>147610887
The tama of Takumi was bigger than his tama.
Lmao, what?
Does anyone have the manga raw past volume 6?
>>147610927
Yeah that was fucking weird and out of place.
I don't know if I liked it or not. I never got bored with it because I liked the drama, I enjoyed the overall tone/pacing and appreciated that it wasn't just non stop hot blooded baseball games. I don't really care to ship the MCs but I still liked the homo.
On the other hand, it just felt like a whole lot of nothing and I never got particularly engaged in the story. I didn't really care about seeing anything happen or be resolved, there wasn't much tension or emotional investment.
Why didn't the brother die?
Him surviving seems like pussying out.
Honestly it was by far the worst show I watched this season.
It felt like an endless meandering stream of drama that never went anywhere. I wouldn't say I hated it, but I didn't like it either.
The best thing out of it was the EDs.
>>147611807
Pretty much how I feel.
>>147611807
I wish the manga was translated. I like Battery setup but the execution was shit.
Oh well, one more reason to focus on those anki decks.
>YFW Takumi and Gou had like 10 lines in the last episode
What was the real him?
>>147613317
I'm working on it with the translator anon from that thread two weeks ago. We redid chapter one, should be done soon.
I also suggested it a few threads ago, but would you guys be interested in discussing the chapters as we progress? Not sure if we can have a precise schedule though.
>>147613454
>I also suggested it a few threads ago, but would you guys be interested in discussing the chapters as we progress? Not sure if we can have a precise schedule though.
Not sure what you mean by this. You should post them on Kissmanga and Mangafox, after that they'll find people on their own.
>>147613483
>Post them on Kissmanga and Mangafox.
That was the plan, not on mangafox though.
I asked if anyone would be interested in creating a thread to talk about it after each chapter is done, but I can't give a specific time/schedule on when they'll be done.
>>147613561
Probably post them on the homothreads.
First two chapters are already translated so most people will probably interested past that. Good Luck.
>>147613561
>>147613454
Manga anon, can you explain what was the deal with Shun?
It's just a "I want Senpai to notice me" kinda of deal?
I haven't watched 11 yet but thsi show was awful, Harada is such a disgusting horrible character that he just drags the show down because he thinks he is hot shit.
Then we have the faggot who calls him Princess being a jealous faggot and teasing his friend.
I don't understand the point of this adaptation at all.
>>147609701
>nice change from the usual type of sports anime
usually in sports anime they actually play the game. this one was purely about homo drama.
>>147613889
>he thinks he is hot shit.
He is hot shit, though.
Did you see him pinch? Literally makes other team people wet.
>>147613561
>>147613483
Batoto, you god damn idiots.
>>147613596
I think we'll do that, thanks.
>>147613801
Actually, I'm just the cleaner. The translator did read it though.
But I just skimmed through volume 06 (the last one available) and it ends around episode 06. So no Shun yet.
>>147614091
I know that, no need to be rude.
>>147613483
What kind of self-respecting translator would intentionally put their stuff up on a shithole like mangafox?
>>147614449
It's going to end up there either way anyway.
I've been trying to think about what specifically makes the drama feel so pointless, and I'd say it's that we see the main two fighting but we never really see them make up, as far as I remember. It's just that suddenly it's over until their next drama happens. There's talk about how they need to improve their battery a bunch of times, but we don't see them working hard to improve it. (And now it's apparently ok.)

Yeah, Takumi and Gou relanshionshi was lacking of any sort of climax.
Heck, even Takumi own issue never got solved. The two homos from the other team completely hijacked the show.
>>147609666
The only thing the show amazed me with was how utterly boring and forgettable it was.
>>147613801
Shun and Shuugo were only introduced last month in the manga (pic related), so I'm afraid I can't be of much help.
>>147617263
Wait, the manga still going on?
>this stupid ending
>kissmanga and mangafox
>>147617538
What's wrong with kissmanga?
>>147617398
Yeah. There was a hiatus of several years but it resumed recently.
>>147617645
Oh woah, I though it ended a bazillion of years ago. Kinda weird. They have two manga running at the same too.
I wonder if it will get less gay or more.
What a disaster. I can't believe they managed to make a last episode that made me like the show even less than I already had.
>>147617905
All I wanted was cute boys playing baseball.
The director isn't even a new entry too, so how did they fuck it up so badly?
>>147617398
Yes, the anime's pacing is faster but the manga has additional scenes.
>>147618388
I figured that, I meant, it started in the last decade so I figured it would be over by now.
>>147617263
>Shugo design
Hot
>Shun design
Animu is better
I wonder if the manga does BL.
>>147617701
Even with the monthly pace it should have ended already but the hiatus was really long. It won't make it in time for the 30th anniversary at this rate.
>two manga
You mean the one drawn by Shimura Takako? I think that one is only three chapters long. The first one was published in a magazine but it will be added as BD/DVD extra as well. I'm not sure about the other two, they might be BD/DVD exclusive.

Alright, I see. I thought the original manga had ended and the Shimura was basically doing a remake.
I heard the anime boosted the sales of the manga a bit?
>>147618721
Is the novel finished already?
>>147619128
I'm pretty sure, yes.Seiha dies in the end.
>>147618778
There isn't a lot of information so it gets confusing. I don't follow sales up close but it's not unusual for manga and novels to sell a bit more after an anime adaptation ends.
>>147619128
Yes.
>>147619528Lying isn't nice, anon.
>>147619528
That spoiler.
Does it end right there (like in the movie) or we get to see how Takumi reacts? Spoil me, senpai.
>>147620404
Some anon told me he did. Was he lying?
why did i watch this
>>147621649
I don't know if he gets sick before this, but I glanced at one of the final chapters and Seiha seems to be doing fine.
>>147621890
To see cute boys kiss and discover their sexuality.
Sadly, it didn't deliver even on that.
>>147617958
What the fuck was that intro?
>>147610462
My reaction.
I guess Manato was a baseball player before being sent to Grimgar.
Best otouto
>>147625885
I hope Shugo gave him the dick eventually.
>>147617958
>>147623854
I think it was trying to say that Takumi was afraid to like someone else (Gou) over Baseball because it was afraid Baseball wouldn't like him anymore?
>>147626521
It was a bizarre execution if that's what they were going for.
>>147623854
In the previous episode Takumi was told to try all sorts of things to see if baseball was really what he wanted to do. I assume the intro was him reflecting on that, maybe trying to show that he feels tied down to baseball.
That's the best I got.
>>147627347
It feels so weird because it doesn't fit Battery realistic and almost rural tone, it's like something out of Haikyuu.
>>147626521
This should be /a/'s banner.
>>147626521
What was the real him anyway.
>>147628965
An angry ball that haunts people in their sleep.
There's two new covers in the website.
