Cross Game - Summer Nights and Black Undershirts
Geez, you know, I really wanted to post a screenshot of the scene where Azuma approaches Aoba because I have a strong shipping compulsion for those two (even though it will never happen because Kou X Aoba is sooo destined (Unless Adachi-sensei pulls another awesome fakeout like he did with H2 SPOILER STOP READING NOW where osana najimi Hiro and Hikari don’t end up together cuz Hikari stays with the amazing Hideo Tachibana (nested parentheses!))). But, I could not post said Azuma/Aoba screenshot. For the primary reason that Azuma looks so goddamn fine in his evil elite team black undershirt.
This summer camp episode was pretty good, besides the weird culture shock I get to this day regarding Japanese summer-is-the-scariest-season-blah-blah-Obon episodes. I don’t find bright sunny days or short nights all that creepy myself. We got some interesting plot development on the main team roster as the best players start to become disillusioned with their coach, some Kou and Aoba “ki ni naru” stuff which is always great, and the heavy implication that the farm team is all fired up and going to come back hard. Love training arcs.
You don’t even know how excited I am that Junpei shows up in the next episode preview.
