Now that the match is over... I'm probably in the minority here but these last few arcs have been very meh for me. Haven't really been into how detached everyone has been and how much they've just kind of messed around with their opponents. I get that it's trying to be above everything but the matches in this series had so much more bite to them and did a great job of making the characters really want to win. To go from that to constant Kanou platitudes that don't mean much and the whole team treating the matches as a joke, it's been mediocre to me for a while now. The series really peaked with the Yokohama match where these ideas came together really nicely. I genuinely miss this version of Kanou, the new version is like a weird buddhist baseball player who spouts out fake philosophical nonsense while everyone else treats everything he says as gospel, don't forget a bat swing to go along with it.

I agreeee, especially your second part. But I guess that’s because the manga feels like being in the final arc/game
