Shiki-subs - Cross Game 01 MKVAnidb: Cross Game is the story of Kou Kitamura and the four Tsukishima sisters, Ichiyo, Wakaba, Aoba, and Momiji. The Tsukushima family runs a batting center with an attached coffee shop, and Kou's father runs a neighboring sporting good store. Wakaba and Kou were born on the same day in the same hospital, and have been close friends since childhood—close enough that Wakaba treats Kou as her boyfriend, even though nothing is officially declared. Aoba, who is one year younger than Wakaba and Kou, doesn't like how Kou is "taking" her sister away from her and claims she hates him.

Wow, that was a great first episode. I didn't expect them to blaze through the entire first volume in 1 episode but it was really well done. The animation is crisp and fluid. SynergySP did a good job with Zettai Karen Children so i have high hopes for this series.
All of the voices match the characters really well, most ended up sounding similar to what i had in my head when i was reading the manga. I didn't expect this series to have great music so i was pleasantly surprise by the ED song. The OP fits the series really well but the ED song really just wowed me since it really adds the mood of that last scene.
Shiki-subs did a pretty good job even though they didn't sub the OP or ED. I didn't notice any glaring mistakes so i'll stick with them unless a really good group decide to pick up this show.
