>>77571295
no bully
>>77571289
sailor ace, some anon posted about it in an earlier thread. It's drawn by the Initial D guy. It's about an a girl who quit pitching to become a gal, but decides to start pitching again.
it's time for Konan to c o m e b a c k
>>77571301
>drawn by the Initial D
this looks good
>>77571155
>tfw you only watch Koshien because you're Mitsuru Adachi's fan
>>77571307
It's a good reason
feels absolutely disgusting posting in a baseball thread with a bunch of people who are only here because they are massive weeaboo faggots to be perfectly honest with you desu
>>77571307
>not enjoying koshien beacuse of sport
>>77571310
Koshien is literally anime though.
>>77571307
we are all Adachi fans here senpai
well, except this guy >>77571310
>>77571310
well, maybe they can enjoy baseball better after this
fuck. poor konan
>mfw the mexican person dont posted anymore beacuse i said that i was liking him
shame
Osaka Toin next !!!!!!!!!!
>>77571320
nah I am also but I actually like baseball
>>77571332
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>77571336
in fact I first became interested in Japan because my favorite player was Ichiro.
>baseball made me a weeaboo faggot
thanks baseball
/blog
>>77571341
i like asian baseball in general
watch NPB or other type of Japanese Baseball is so fun
>osaka toin against the team from the least populous prefecture in Japan
who's ready for the upset of the year?
Last game today:
Osaka Toin (Osaka) vs Yonago Shoin (Tottori)
>a fucking bag of dirt
>>77571353
time for the explanation about the Koshien being the oldest active big stadium on japan and that the dirt is considered "holy land"
aw fuck that coach is bawling his eyes out
>>77571307
>>77571309
>>77571320
>watching koshien for the relationship drama
it's a dumb reason
>9 unanswered runs
Brutal
>>77571365
But the drama of Koshien is the best part
>>77571370
the drama, not the relationship drama.
>>77571365
is this a Kamen film?
>>77571380
>Man of a thousand HAI's
>>77571380
why is this news
>>77571406
car accidents arent so common in Japan
So what stream is everyone using? The asahi one is solid quality but I'm just about at the end of my rope with the 3 commercials.
>>77571426
i am using Asahi and here only gives me 2 by inning
>>77571426
turn your adblocker back on after the stream loads and it will block just the ads
>>77571426
I'm using qq
Time to cheer against Osaka Toin
REEEEEEEEEE GET OUT
the purple is pretty cute
>>77571442
everything on Toin cringes me, even this rich guy cringes me reeeeeeeeeee
>toin coatch
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
This mother fucker was out before the horn ended.
>>77571443
sorry I mean kawaii
>>77571473
my thoughts exactly.
Wow
welp, this is going to be ugly
Ace can't even break 80mph. Oh boy.
yeah, its toin after all
this gonna be a shitstorm to shoin
>homerun with no one on base in first inning
wow fuck these guys.
>mfw Yonago Shoin website is already having capacity problems
>>77571505
why
>>77571509
beacuse the team is playing on koshien and nobody knows where they are from?
>>77571511
oh?
God, even Osaka Toin school bulding has RICH style
At least lefty's hitting his spots
>>77571525
the band sounds expensive.
instrument sound is more orchestra than marching band and they play alot of non-standard songs.
>>77571555
The other school is playing the Attack on Titan theme too
>>77571555
Yeah, Toin orchestra is also well known as being one of best bands in Japan
What a shock, Toin's catcher doesn't set up 3 feet outside, and they're getting calls on the edge.
God, the pitching of Toin looks like i playing videogame
Shoin dont gonna get a batting too soon
>William Tell Overture
>toin playing attack on titan OP
more ironic than that, nothing else
Sound coming from the stands incredibly jacked up for anyone else?
>>77571637
yep
>>77571637
the sound guy should be sleeping again
sometimes they fuck with stands
Btw Toin was playing this song that is theme of Pawafuro 2017
yeah they just did a markerting parternship stuff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeKJoZ7evZI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joAxV5QDuOw

Toin Frog is not pleased
>>77571674
>this face

God damn he tagged up on that? Ballsy
>Shoin pitcher laughing cause he knows hes fucked
>4-0 with no chanse of make at least a point
yeah Shoin is dead
>>77571698
5-0*
who can stop toin????
Touin is fucking ridiculous, holy shit. I can't even believe some of this shit at all, much less that it's coming out of 16 year-old high-schoolers.
>>77571703
i thogout that you was sleeping after that
spin2win
>>77571756
Toin*
now you know why i cringe when i see Toin playing
They are litteraly the Yankees of HS Baseball
they bout to do it
>>77571774
>>77571777
It's Touin. The proper romanization is Touin.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macron_(diacritic)
l asleep for a while
the shoin in the park homerun woke me up
>>77571847
The Oficial is Toin, its even on the fucking door of school
How old is that fucking dante?
"On that day, mankind received a grim reminder."
ATTACK ON TOIN
>>77571155

>>77583330
Who is ready?
>>77583380
All in for Niigatas vs the Narutos.
>>77579855
of course
>>77571374
adachishit teaches you about the years of practice that go into perfecting your super-perfect pitching form, and the gauntlet of regional qualifying that every team has to go to just to get to the sacred black dirt of Koshien.
>>77583661
It also teaches you that all that work is meaningless when you get hit by a truck
>>77571155
isn't koshien supposed to last for 15 days?
>>77583734
being trucked is nothing, you just get to teach the greatness of baseball and sushi and chopsticks to elves, wizzards and catgirls in another world
and get a harem to go with
gay witches
>>77583734
>get trucked
>last thought
>"if only I could go pro"
>open eyes while standing on the mound
>pitching for the Marlins, the greatest team of all time
>>77583875
yeah, its a 15 days tournament
>>77583939
hello mex-chan, did you slept good?
>>77583518
OH GOD, THAT IS SO PERFECT LMAO
>baseball
How did you get into this shit?
You just watched Ace of the Diamond, didn't you?
>>77584189
yeah
>>77584202
I don't watch fujotrash
>>77584190
>baseball
>>77584202
I saw the Koshien threads and thought they were pretty comfy.
>>77584202
There was a thread on /a/ last year for the final, so I joined then.
>>77584202
>You just watched Ace of the Diamond,
watchin fujoshit, fuck off
>>77584202
i just like baseball
>>77584238
>this webm
LMAO, IM LAUGHING A LOT LMAO
>>77584220
at leas
>>77584178
so why day 4/5 in the thread's title?
>>77584377
>at least you dont dreamt about aliens using plastic banners to conquest the world
that was the most werid dream that i ever had
>>77584382
beacuse it is the thread for days 4 and 5 of 15 maybe?
For me, it's Taffman.
It's rich on vitamins and tastes good.
>>77584454
>tastes good
this tastes like vick
>>77571777
It looks like they've only been relevant in the past few years, this is only their 9th ever appearance in the tournament. Better comparison might be the Astros and their years and years of 1st overall picks
>>77584900
maybe, but Astros won stuffs?
when do the games today start?
>>77585280
8:30PM EST
40 minutes.
>>77585280
>>77585302 is right
Asahi stream already started
Don't MLB scouts go to this?
>>77585463
NPB scouts go more than MLB since the NPB draft is right after Koshien
Are there any submarine style pitchers in this? I'm surprised Japan produces a ton of those types of pitchers.
>>77585623
I haven't seen any so far. They've all been fairly traditional. There's been more variation in batting stances.
>>77584405
well, I guess it's that
I thought it meant day 4 of 5
>>77585623
>Watering the pitch right before the game
>>77585623
sorry wasnt to mark you, sorry
>Girls on the purple and blue team
I hope they win.
>>77585623
I've seen atleast two pitchers throwing underarm.
>>77585757
>Watering the pitch right before the game
its on middle of summer and is hot as fuck
>>77585776
Spoiler Alert: They're the coach's daughters.
link to the qq stream?
This is a single elimination tournament?
>>77585871
yes it is
>>77585871
Yes. You either win or you collect dirt.
>>77585861
check OP, it has all streams that are broadcasting the games
>homerun already
>blue unis
Absolutely disgusting. Hope this team tanks.
>mfw finnaly someone not using a tone of white in uniform
Well shit, the SP's stuff are all offspeed shit
>Change Up
>Curve
>Slider
He's not going to last long,
wait, I thought only white kits were allowed
>>77585945
the only rule is the team must have same color on all uniform, and they are following the rules

>>77585983
FBI, it's this guy.
>>77585983
Is this NOT Aoba?
>>77585974
so the caps are not a part of the uniform? they have different colors (and all the players wearing arm sleeves too by the way)
dabulu pulei
This purple and blue team sucks
>Bunt back to the pitcher
>first bunt of the day
>double play
When will they learn?
>blue pants
Everything I used to believe in, ruined.
>>77586059
BUNTS
hokkaido playing some good tunes tho
The bunt worked
delicious meme plays
they definitely should not film a bunch of high schoolers mouths seen through megaphones, it's way to creepy
>hokkaido on seppuuku watch
>>77586059
RIP hokkaido
JON FUCKING RÓN!
Meme pants BTFO eternally
pls no
you are going to make aoba-chan cry
Now i know why they divide Hokkaido Region in two
Is there a mercy rule in this? I have a feeling it's only going to get worse in the later innings.
>giving up 5 runs on 22 pitches
The earthquake shanty town of Hokkaido
that wasn't a strike fuck you ump
sad
i hope both hokkaidos dont lose today
>>77586631
It doesn't look good.
>>77586686
yeah, it was going to be a hard game after all
what if the girl in the dugout put a step on the sacred dirt? will they ban the team and force her to sudoku herself?
holy fuck
hokkaido...
Pick your preferred crushing loss:
>get stomped right out of the gate and never have a chance in the game
>take an early, substantial lead but lose it in the last two innings
>fall behind early but rally only to barely lose
Which do you think generates the most tears while collecting dirt?
blue team should just add clown shoes to their uniform
banana?
>>77586981
Peeeedooooo.
>>77587003
fuck off hue
>can't even complete the double play
>that slide
Worst team yet?
>10-0
10-0
>10-0

>giving hokkaido two teams
this pitcher is good though
They are dead already :(
>>77587112
Tokyo also has two
>>77587114
his teammates are just shit
a lot of sudoku will be commited tonight
>mfw i dont know what is worst, watch this Hokkaido team or dont find Pawafuro PS3 ISO links
Is Ikuei supposed to be good?
>happy birthday
I hope the next game is close
mercy rule???
>>77587305
>Japan
>mercy
Plus this is Koshien. The event makes the losing team line up on the baseline and step off the field as a single unit. Instead of say just letting them leave the field quietly.
homerun soon?
>>77587613
Close enough
damn
Time for epic comeback?
at least it's not a shutout, small victories
>>77587715
I like their coach
Nice touch
Pretty sure not swinging is statistically better than swinging at this point.
>Japan gets clean and friendly McDonalds
>Japan gets clean and friendly 7/11's
>Japan gets coke with cold activated labels that tell you when it's the right temp to drink
>It's probably made with real fucking sugar too and not corn syrup
Why does America suck so much?
>three men on ball
>no one catches it
>>77588139
I find it amazing that Japan as double the amount of 7-11's that America has
>>77588193
They have it on google maps with special markers for some reason. TV ads airing all the time and selling cool shit. It's like USA started offering brazilian trannies but with 30 extra flavors.
>>77588193
It's a Japanese company in a highly urbanized country. It makes perfect sense.
>>77588193
We'd have more 7-11's here if they weren't dirty shit holes. Just getting to one is a pain since you have to navigate the crowd of homeless and day laborers that constantly loiter in front of them and meander through the parking lots. Then once you get inside there is only one cash register open and it's currently bogged down with some weirdo buying 200 dollars in scratchoffs/powerball tickets/etc.
>>77588157
i wonder where they put this camera
Hopefully the next game isn't a blowout. I've only seen this one and the Yokohama game from last night.
>bow
>try not to cry
>cry alot
>>77588422
Probably the sweetest tears of the tournament so far
>>77588670
>worried
>>77588670
>>77588686
>>77588721
i dont get the joke
why you put semi final?
shortstop trying to show off should've just let the third baseman field that one
>>77588740
Just picked something at random to make a kornheiser. It's not like many people will truly know its meaning.
>starting pitcher choking on the 1st inning
>>77588772
why not put 10-0?
well this game is over
>>77588789
Clearly you've never seen Naruto. They only need to summon the Nine Tailed Fox and they're back in this game.
>>77588789
Don't jynx it.
>>77588841
bad luck
>>77588764
That shortstop must really hate the third basemen.
rest in peace naruto
>these cheeky base steals
I like the cut of Nigata's jib
it never ends!
Today is being only massacre
now i know why Japs put only 3 games today
Thanks god that this is the last first round game

Man these games get out of hand quickly.
>>77589049
Not very fun to watch. I'll definitely fall asleep before the third game.
>>77589049
>>77589079
it was only first round unluck
last few days had better close games than today
also second round starts after this match
>>77589047
>>77589094
Yeah honestly, the best game so far was that Chukyo/Koryo match imo
is their mercy rules? because i dont want to sit through another slaughter
What is the name of the team winning?
>>77589153
Nihon Bunri
>>77589177
So North Hokkaido is losing....
>>77589186
No they play after.
>>77589221
mex-chan are you sado and enjoy other suffering?
>>77589243
I always enjoy the suffering
>the bunt worked
>>77589266
to be honest, i always wanted be BDSM Dom
Japanese baseball is stuck in the 70's. Bunts work. Small ball everywhere.
>>77589496
>Bunts work
It's rare.
>>77589496
>>77589500
very rare
>>77589496
what is small ball mean!!
a shame that idiot got himself picked off at first by being lazy, should be one more run on the board
I feel a comeback coming
*sip*
>>77589534
It means they don't rely on homeruns for offense.
>want to watch Senga pitch for the hawks against the fighters
>go to fighters stream guy
>he's showing Koshien
no dedication, I'm disappointed. In spring he always switched to the fighters and that was during spring training still. Perhaps it's because the fighters are dogshit and he's lost all hope. He does have a backup account showing the fighters though
whoa what
heads up baserunning, caught the third baseman napping
>>77589774
>>77589963
see the qq video list, maybe you can find
wait who won the last game I just got back
>>77590289
Nihon Bunri won 9-4
Second round begins next
this new waiting for a game theme is very hello K-Mart shoppers.
>>77590323
those themes are very comfy
TIME FOR SECOND ROUND
HOKKAI HOKKAI!
I really like the white helmets.
woooooooo
he dropped the mitt...
this game is being good
both teams only scored 1 in each inning
>>77590578
good night
OH BOY HERE COMES THE TIE
ITS TIED AAAAAAAAAAA
>mfw everyone is losting this
where's the webms of the imouto cheer squad?
>>77590816
its the american guy that does webms but he seems not online sadly
>>77590803
>>77590816
they have an imouto cheer squad, of course they were going to get unfair homeruns out of nowhere
life is unfair
>>77590830
people fell on "boring random games" trap
people wrong thogout that last game was going to be boring but then become the best game of the day
>this shortstop
man
HOKKAI IS NOW LEADING
3-2
>>77590842
who needs imoutos or homeruns!? we have grit!!
4-2
this gonna be even more dramatic
wow i thogout that was going to be HR on this one
oh shit good game
13 hits, 2 runs. that's a frustrating day
3 HR
D I N G E R
this being so epic
what was 4-2 is now 4-5
PLEASE APOLOGIZE

FINE play

L A S T I N N I N G
>mfw all those people that lost this game beacuse "muh boring"
>the uninhabited island of hokkaido
>>77591022
>mfw both hokkaidos lost today
>let's get an ultra close up of these losers' tears as they pick up some shitty dirt that will remind them of their failure for the rest of their lives
feels kind of demeaning to be desu
also
>a fucking bag of dirt
>>77591075
>>a fucking bag of dirt
its not any dirt, is the fucking dirt of the oldest baseball stadiums in japan
its like take dirt from fenway park or those leafs from Wrigley field wall
>>77591075
the anime ends with the Koshien hopefuls failing despite their best efforts, they gather up their bags of holy Koshien dirt.
the captain decides with the team that they should all combine their koshien dirt to plant a tree.
as the captain becomes a man and a father and then a grandfather the tree grows into a tall strong tree. the captain's grandson's yakyuu team is going to be heading to the koshien now and so the grandfather remembers the tree and goes to see it and decides to cut down a branch of it and works to make it into a bat that he gives to his grandson.
>>77571155
DAY 6 GAMES
>>77591112
what anime is this?
>>77591472
i made it up
>>77591615
that could be a good anime ending
