#i luv miyuki sm

[kizoojin]

what i really like about daiya is the consistency, like a repetitive sequence but so subtle you have to like squint to make sense of it

like say, there's the three new first years that made to first string

the ever small yui, wolf-boy okumura, and then there's yuuki

the similarity to last year's first years are so obvious it's hilarious

yuuki is a genius batter like haruichi, yui and okumura are both catchers while sawamura and furuya are both pitchers, like come on now there's no way that ain't on purpose

yui is literally sawamura's counterpart, funny right?

both have high expectations of themselves

always wanting to improve, forever growing

while sawamura lacks experience, yui lacks physical

sawamura absorbs everything like sponge, while yui proves height is not the only thing you need in baseball w his skills

sawamura's fixated on miyuki's approval, yui's fixated on furuya's approval

theyre literally sunshine children

both work so hard, but very little recognize it

it took almost a year for sawamura's teammates to acknowledge him, yui tries so hard to play the position he wants to play but he's been tossed around everywhere without being able to really prove himself]

then there's okumura that basically is furuya

both had bad experience w their past baseball team

furuya came to seidou for miyuki, okumura came for sawamura (and maybe furuya too?)

they're both so competitive lolol

both also have trouble eating

they both had shoujo moment with the ppl they chasing LMAO, like come on when miyuki caught furuya's for the first time then there's okumura who warmed up sawamura for the first time

precious children

i fr think they meant for okumura to not make it to first string as fast like furuya did, but made yui make the first string just as quick like eijun didn't its wild, the consistency to these characters are so mindboggling

and then last is yuuki w haruichi

both have really deep respect for their older brothers

came to seidou to see what their brothers seen

obviously both "better" than their brothers

yuuki knows he can surpass tetsu, ryousuke knows haruichi can surpass him

ive not rlly seen much of yuuki, honestly and its sad bc his character is so comical lmaoo. very similar to his brother who so adamant on being so bad at shogi and not knowing it

daiya is such a slow build anime, it takes HELLA patience to like it. i honestly dropped the anime so many times and only went back to it recently bc i want more of miyuki, but then fall and daiya ii happened and gawd, im just mindblown bc the characters start to build up on you

i freaking love mei LOL, i legitimately hated him in the first season but this boy is so hard to resist

you dont understand how much i screamed when he said "I AM KING" like YES MY BABY LMAOOO yakushi makes me smile and i luv raichi and sanada, but man their participation in koushien despite losing to seidou made me eh for a bit bc kinda wild

seidou and inashiro been fighting to go to nationals tooth and nail for the last six or so years and then there's yakushi. i get why tho, but doesnt mean i like it

i also didnt like eijun much, but my baby grew so much you just cant help but love him. even his annoying shouting spree became so endearing, i look forward to it every time he's in the bullpen. that pitching he did during spring against Ichidai is so fucking precious like OMG i understood what the coach and miyuki were trying to do, but they were basically babying furuya knowing he was anything but that, furuya is stronger than that as miyuki put it and ik they have a lot of expectations on aces but god that scene made me so sad bc furuya's alone in his thoughts as it is then they left him even more alone even w eijun there to help him, help them. it's not just furuya that's fighting something, bc eijun is too, everyday and it hurt that they made eijun cry and made him feel like he's not even good enough to be prioritized when he can be so much more. even furuya acknowledges it and it makes me sad bc i really ship miyusawa, but at that moment, i just didn't

anywho i love daiya LMAO, im waiting for the moment the chapters are at least updated bc i cant take cliff hangers rn lolol

ALSO OMG LOL I FUCKING LUV HIS EYES HERE

i saw your post about ogawa and i just want to say that ogawa wasn't even in the wrong in that play. He didn't give a path for Ogawa to slide into. When he was getting ready to field the ball, Miyuki was already blocking the plate. There was nothing Ogawa could do to stop that momentum tbh. Miyuki and Ogawa were both to blame.

I honestly don't know much about baseball, so I can't even argue with you that maybe Miyuki is at fault too (though I could have sworn Miyuki already has the ball and is blocking the plate--even if he was, THTS A SAFE strategy aint it?? cause normally no one push catchers from home?? idfk??--before that kid even run through it, i dunno im gonna rewatch it again and come back to you) but at the same time, legit every onlookers gone and went "they'd take him out for that roughplay, eh?" not exactly in that wording 'cause I forgot, but EVEN his teammates TOLD Ogawara that EVEN if they win because of that, they wouldn't even FEEL PROUD about it.

So ESSENTIALLY, everyone thought he would get penalized for that, which is what I'm angry about to begin with. There were no repercussion towards what he did, they just let him PLAY NORMALLY LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. If this is soccer, wouldn't he get a flag? Idfk, I don't know sports, but STILL.

Miyuki might have training and shit, but he doesn't get tackled ON A DAILY BASIS, cause I dunno they're playing baseball. And I'm not angry with you anon, but my point stands. He could have gotten a warning, or even a scolding from his coach, fuck if I was Kataoka I would have KNOWN something at least went down cause shit, all of them saw how hard he legit pushed Miyuki, but nothing !!! I get that it's part of the plot, 'cause I felt proud of Shirasu making plays to support Miyuki (--in case Miyuki cant play), but it just didn't make sense to me.

They basically plastered on everyone's foreheads runners can just ram through catchers needlessly bc the umpire wouldn't say shit. 🙄
