I really liked this anime............. unlike most of the animes based on a sport, this anime does not have anything supernatural like people jumping 100m in the air like they do in inazuma eleven...... its just baseball here...

The story seems a bit slow in the beginning but it gets really interesting afterwards........ the good thing is that to watch this anime you don't need to know that much about baseball........... I would recommend anyone to watch this anime if they are interested in sports........

If you just love Mitsuru Adachi's work. If you love a sweet love story, if you love a funny and heartwarming story.
This is the anime you must watch, and don't stop at early eps if you think the story is too slow. This is the kind of anime that made you feel better after watch it. And you don't even have to know or love anything about baseball!!

the cross game is kind of anime that brings you inside the story. At the first chapters and second chapters u may feel kind of borism but do not give up at there and continue to see then u sure will be affected by it.

as for me to i felt boring at first but then i was attracted by it.

the story is based on the dream of a Kousien(baseball tournament in high school stage).

i suggest you to see it. there is kind of love story too.

Already finished the manga ages ago, then got bored with no anime to watch. Now i decide to begin watching the series. Quite a surprise as the story still follow the manga closely. (currently only watching up to episode 7)

Kind of disappointed that central anime subs link in this site only got to episode 14. Well, now I'm working to upload the CA subs here. For those who were waiting for CA, please wait for a few days before i finish download all the CA subs episodes. Then I'll upload it here for all to download.

Regards

I have always thought of Baseball to be one of the most boring sports ever. But I heard this anime had a great story, so I decided to give it a shot. I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT. I love the characters, and find it amazing how they were able to over come so much so young. This is definitely an anime that I won't delete anytime soon. And now that I've given this anime a chance, I find baseball to be a little less boring.

After I watched the first episode I thought it was pretty touching but then I stopped because the characters were kids.
So basically he grows up at the second episode so don't worry. Well - at least he's no longer a guy who hasn't hit puberty yet.
I thought about quitting because I'm into romance but just not kid innocent romance. But then - after watching the second episode, I'm hooked.

It's comedy side is pretty entertaining. At just episode 2, the story is already amazing. Although of course I can't write a review for the whole anime because (read more)

To begin with, I wasn't expecting much from Cross Game initially. I decided to give it a shot, despite having little knowledge about baseball.

I am happy to say that this is a really good anime. The main theme is baseball of course, but it also incorporates various aspects of human nature; emphasising on the daily lives, the relationships and the interactions between the characters. I find this refreshing and can encourage baseball-haters to not put this off at first glance.

The story is emotionally charged in nature, and it would be wrong (read more)

This anime struck me different then most, it was good. I love sports but this sports anime topped the cake and i loved every second of it. Of course not as good as the manga ( but what anime are?), this has been my favorite anime in the last couple years.
