Oofuri and
Diamond no ace, a slight comparision
Both of the titles are very different but just enjoyable to read and watch.
Oofuri’s
pitcher Mihashi Ren is a master of control and breaking balls with the most
wimpy attitude and social awkwardness you could imagine. Despite this he’s an excellent
pitcher when paired up with the catcher Abe Takaya, insensitive and a control freak
but really is the best kind of catcher Ren could have. They balance each other
out which is what makes their battery important and effective. Also Takaya help
Ren build his confidence by taking the lead and winning matches with flying
colors.
And for
Diamond no ace, Sawamura Eijun a pitcher with a headstrong and flaming
personality the complete opposite of Ren. As for him he has his naturally
breaking fastball as one of his few weapons (as for chapter 143), unlike Ren he
has bad control of his pitches and can handle throwing a real fastball but the
pitches are way too wild for an ordinary catcher to handle. Eijun’s main catcher
Miyuki Kazuya can catch almost any kind of pitch so also here the author has
made a good balance.
The huge
difference in between these two series is the amount of people available for
each match, in Oofuri the only real pitcher and catcher they have are Ren and
Takaya and they are only like 10 members or so in the whole club. When compared
to Diamond no Ace that is set at a school with great baseball records with
different levels of baseball and regularly going to Koshien with a number of
great players. Seidou even has 4
pitchers for each match while Ren has to pitch for at least 7 innings each
match and that is only if they can make a shut-out play.
When I think
of it no pitcher in Diamond no Ace has a complete control of the pitches they
make, Furuya has the power and speed but his control lacks. Tanba has a few
breaking balls, speed and decent amount of power but his shoulder has been
injured. Eijun is just the worst when it comes to control but this is to his
advantage in the higher leagues when Kazuya takes them all no matter what kind
of course they have.
Also the
experience of the field players are huge as well, Nishimura can make double
plays and great catching in the outer field and so but compared to a national
level team as Seidou they just don’t have the experience. Which could be
because they have no seniors to look up to all of them are first years.

write for ages but no one cares.
