Another new show I'm surprised that hasn't been talked about as much on Here or on Other sites I frequent.

So, what do you get when you cross The creator of Super Jail's over-the-top violence and comedy with anime references and cliches along with Roller derby of death? You get Ballmasterz! Created by Christy Karacas, the series follows the story of Gaz Digzy and the Leptons. After a night of debauchery, She ends up being demoted to the worst team, The Leptons, and the only way to get back on top is if she can help them win just one game. Good Luck, Gaz. You'll need it.

This show is like OK KO on Crack and made more brutal! The art style is really fitting for the setting and the writing is pretty restrained for an Adult swim series, and I'm really excited for more! How about you? Do you feel like this show is worth your time or it should just be forgotten about?

I was considering starting a page, but I didn't know if it was too early or what.

Plus, I typed it out based on the promo, which was our only source of any info outside of the obligatory synopsises.

I like what I see.

Krayzar seems like a Reasonable Authority Figure. A bit out there, but far from a tyrant. Also the green haired one is cute.

Latest episodes were a solid 10/10!

Luna is going to get so much fan art, I swear!

I loved it and i'm liking Krayzar. Like other have said, he seems pretty reasonable.

He's like a chaotic god meets Sensei and he's just letting this all play out and see how they'll use this power for the better. Really love his character, but I hope he's not the Big Bad. Episode 3 is a lore dump that makes even K.O's backstory for Gar seem lazy in comparison.

Here's to hopefully getting a season two of this amazing show!

I know the Ace is suppose to be a parody of shonen protagonists, but I wish the show was more focused on Gaz. I still really like it though.

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

Some people feel the same way, but I think the next episode is going to be a Gaz-focused ep.

Also, Who else thinks that the finale will be a Twist Ending with Gaz purposely scoring in the wrong scorehole to stay with Ace and the Leptons?

HAH! I knew Luna sounded familiar. She's voiced by Stephanie Sheh!

You just know that soon enough other teams might discover how to form the Ball Master. I can easily see this series going down the path to Rad Wars 2.0.

Unless of course Ace and Babyball start getting their act together and destroy them, then it goes down the Monster of the Week path that I fear would ruin this show, since it's not my fave genre.

Tonight's episodes were just too good! Both dealing with Gaz's past in some way, and one even having a Jojo reference!

I saw a couple of episodes and they made me laugh a few times. I like how stylish the animation is while employing a bit of Stylistic Suck. I found Leto's character pretty funny.

I liked it better when Questionable Casting was called WTH Casting Agency

I like Leto, but he just feels like a useless anime version of Shaggy. I'm glad Ep 7 focussed on him and DD who are pretty much the only other interesting main characters next to Ace, Gaz and Babyball.

It also seems like Lulu's species faces a lot of discrimination.

When is someone going to start a page for this show? I don't want to be the one to do it, but I would like to add tropes to it.
