"Is this where stupid HAXX pitching and batting start determining games (a la Prince of Tennis)?" So fa so good. I've enjoyed every single episode (We're at 7 now). I found out about this show here at Scrumptious, so thanks Jen!

And yes, have to agree that Toua brings much of the inspirational aspect of the series, and the dynamics/antics that results from his overall badassness. It's always great to see the manager all pissed haha @Washi: That actually didn’t occur to me until I read about the varying sentiments of people regarding this show.

Funny that, unlike you I hadn't really put much thought into what the appeal of this show really is. Perhaps because I already enjoyed Kaiji and Akagi my enjoying it was pretty much a given. I'm not sure I get the same sense of optimism from the show as you do, but thinking along those lines one of things that might give it a strong appeal irrespective of the gambling and the baseball, I wonder if it's because Toua is like a contemporary hero. He's often inspiring to watch and you love to see him turn the tables on the manipulative and greedy team manager. Interesting read!
