I hope my summary will help you enjoy the other episodes of Oofuri ^^ Well, seeing how the cast of most sports anime are usually dominated by male characters, I was wondering why it didn't happen sooner XD Yeah, like I said, the BL seems only to enhance my enjoyment and it is not overused either, just the right balance of BL and sports... sounds like heaven XD @Nani?!

Thu, 10 May 2007 13:49:00 +0000 http://scrumptious.animeblogger.net/2007/05/02/ookiku-furikabutte-02/#comment-464 I love Oofuri even though I've only watched the first episode. I can't wait any longer so I'm going to try to watch the raw. Thanks for the summary, and hopefully with it, I can get some Oofuri goodness ^_^. I really didn't expect to see any BL since it is a sports anime...wait, maybe because it's a sport anime...anyway, I don't mind it at all just because it adds a whole new dimension to the characters and their interactions. Go Abe x Ren! I love Oofuri even though I’ve only watched the first episode. I can’t wait any longer so I’m going to try to watch the raw.

That was my main reason for summarizing it, because this anime is not getting the love it deserves. What I like about the sports aspect of Oofuri is that it is not exaggerated at all. Also, I read somewhere (probably in Animesuki) that the author really researched about baseball techniques and science to make the manga more authentic. This, along with fantastic characters and delightful storytelling, also resulted in the manga winning the coveted Osama Tezuka Culture Award for the Creative category, as I mentioned in my Oofuri 01 post. Momoe has HUGE boobs, but she is there not merely there for the fanservice. She is quite central to the story and she will prove herself a very good coach/manager as the show progresses. Hope you'll keep watching and I will try my best to provide the summary. ^^ @Chris I am glad you found it useful.

Thanks for summarizing this series, it makes watching the raws way more easy, I hope you continue to do so, sports are my most favorite anime genre. I love playing football but I hated Eyeshield 2, I hate baseball in real life yet my fave anime include H2, Princess Nine, and maybe Ofuri. As for the whole stimulating part, well I doubt he'd want to do it with a bunch of guys sleeping right next to him at the cabin....or would he? He does have that whole "spunky young yaoi character" going on :P I didn't expect this series to be so BL, I had read there's a big yaoi fanbase in Japan, but I thought it was just the fans looking for the relationship where it never even goes on but in this series, it's really obvious. I don't mind fanservice but man, that one character's boobs are way too big to be pleasing to the eye. I'd think that her breast wouldn't even allow her to pitch, feels like she'd fall either backwards or forwards when she's winding up for a pitch. I just found your blog and I love it!

Yeah, Momoe is awessoooommmeeeeee ~ Finally, a female character who supports BL!

Go Momoe! >D She's the best "coach" of baseball I've seen~ with really neat tricks up her sleeves (base-ball techniques wise, and *ahem* other techniques) => points to Momoe's "advice" to Abe~ =P It's like Momoe's advicing Abe: Go show Ren more <strike>BL-love</strike> TLC, and you'll see the great results that'll come out from being a "Tender-Loving Catcher" ;P Momoe’s THE Amazon of baseball~ hehe… the players doesn’t notice it themselves, but the training she’s giving them is indeed aimed at improving just what skills they need.
