Bazooka Bills voice absolutely slayed me. This was one of my favorite chapters in the manga and they elevated it beyond expectations.

Also love whenever Yor is just casually superhuman.

Lmao that You didn't even teach Anya to do one of the most important things in her intense training which is how to actually throw a ball

Only way I can describe that episode is just completely overflowing with love from the creative staff. They are having an absolute blast. :allears:

Bill Watkins (6) might be the funniest joke in the series yet and that's saying something.

Pleasant surprise at Damian's arc this episode, he might actually become kinda cool with a little more maturity and humility.

She did I think, the only issue was I think Anya faltered and placed her foot wrong at the end; probably due to the difference between the smooth floor of the gym vs the friction of the dirt/grass of the park. Anya just needed more ball throwing practice.

Evening, patrolmaaan.
Bill's voice acting and how they went all in on the animation for this episode made a great chapter of the manga even better.

I'm getting real curious about how they are going to end this season though, this first part is 12 episodes right?
If the next episode is (manga spoilers)Anya getting a stella then Bond would be next, but one episode (or one and half if they cover both the stella and start of Bond's arc next week) doesn't seem like enough. Do they maybe split the Bond episodes up between seasons and end episode 12 on a cliffhanger?

Hahaha! Aw come on, I can't tell you everything right away! That would make for a boring story, don't you think?
God that was a fun ep. Just chock full of amazing visual gags and nonstop ridiculous action. This show is so good.

If I had to guess I'd say this cour ends with aquarium fun time, and next one adds Bond pretty early on so they can put him in the new opening/ED

Note that in the training montage we never see Anya actually ever throwing a ball before she ever actually plays

Bill Watkins having a deep voice was the wrong choice...

Until you hear that boy excitedly exclaim "Daddy!" at which point it becomes clearr that there was no beyter choice that could have been made.

Ultimately it's for the better that Anya whiffed that ball throw. If she'd copied Yor too well, she'd definitely have gotten a Tonitrus bolt for pitching a ball straight through Bill Watkins (6)

Bill Watkins (6) may be my favorite joke in anime period. I just absolutely died the first time I read it. I can't explain why but just is so out of left field that it gets me every time.

His dad was the same VA right? Would have been funnier if it was the other meme-deep voice, the guy who did Gamagori I think.

It's an Extra chapter, and they already skipped over the other Extra chapter, with the aquarium. Dunno if they're going to do anything with them.
