Last read ch.: Ch.190
☚୧୨☛ One of the best baseball stories out there, if not the very best! I found myself so involved in these guys' tournaments and cheering for them! While being sports-focused with so many technical details, it's so entertaining and well-developed on the emotional level as well. The colorful cast of young characters going through the spring of their youth also does its part in involving the reader. The author said: "High school students are sparkling. I want to hold on to this feeling while drawing the manga". And I really got that feeling while reading! One can't help becoming attached to these guys and wanting to follow their journey. In particular, my baby Mihashi is such an adorable puppy that needs to be protected at all costs! I found him so cute and I was looking after him for all the story! Lastly but not least, I really love Abe and Mihashi's relationship. They still have a long way to go, but, just thinking about how they were in the beginning, we see how much they already grew up together both as a battery and individually along the story. While there're cute moments from the early chapters, at first they could not really communicate with each other, due to Mihashi's lack of self-confidence and shyness and Abe's mistrust in pitchers and its consecutive kinda arrogant attitude, telling Mihashi to never shake his head at him and do as he signals. At vol. 15 they finally have an honest pitcher-catcher talk and after that things keep getting better, especially starting from vol.17 where the coach makes them work together at preparing breakfast and such. Then, slowly they come to understand each other. I believe sooner or later they will truly be on the same page and a sort of special bond will create between them. It doesn't matter what is its true nature, if it's just friendship or maybe a little more than that...they have something precious regardless! And it is becoming even more so, as the story continues. So, for those who like sports stories with some BL undertones, this is perfect!
> The dynamics of their relationship can be easily found in BL stories. From the author's 1995 story Yuku Tokoro, it goes without saying that she'd be fine with putting a gay relationship a story, and maybe that's why something can be felt in the intentional-or-not subtext. Yet again, even if Abe and Mihashi's feelings really were to become romantic ones, they would probably not be pursued in this kind of story. Oh well, I'm content with what we're being given anyway!
Adapted to anime - I actually watched the anime first and I loved it!! Too bad it didn't continue with a third season! The anime covers the story till volume 15 ch. 56.
>>> Note: At ch. 24.4 it ends vol. 13.
At ch. 25.1 it begins vol. 14. After ch. 25.2, there's a bit of confusion with the chapters, with some missing and some not in the right order. So, after ch. 25.2, the story continues at ch. 53-54. In ch. 55 it begins vol. 15 and the story continues from there.
(ch. 53.1 is a re-upload of the first chapter of vol.14).
(ch. 26-30 are some chapters from vol. 15-16, but some parts are missing, so it's better to skip them and continue to read directly at ch. 55, where vol. 15 begins). So, basically ch. 26-30 and 53.1 are to be skipped.
Also, ch. 113 and 156 are missing here. But they're available on other sites.
Sports + ahhhh it would be nice if this updated more! I miss my Nishiura boys /// 145 + dropped
I love this anime and manga. I hope they keep going.
Favourite baseball Manhattan of all time !
So adorable. Got me to really like baseball while I was watching/reading
Too much bromance but I am not complaining. I love the characters especially Yuuichirou and Takaya. Mihashi's my cute scaredy kitten.
