The defeat in the last game of his junior high school career gave Sawamura Eijun the desire to become stronger.
After receiving an invitation from a prominent baseball team in the Nishitokyo area, Sawamura Huai entered Aido with his love for baseball and his desire to become stronger.
Here, he met new partners: the catcher Miyuki Kazuya with a bad personality, the gloomy-looking but gentle Chris-senpai, the teasing Kuramochi-senpai in his dormitory, and the gentle and honest Masuko-senpai... As well as the other "self" in his body.
Watching a pitcher promoted to the first team at the same time, witnessing the "evolution" of the original first team starting pitcher Tanba-senpai, and his own on-field performance full of loopholes... The oncoming pressure was like a raging wave, making him lose his way.
He felt regretful that his goal of "becoming an ace" seemed to be one step further away from him.
Just when he was depressed, another voice suddenly sounded in his consciousness, and Eijun officially got to know another "self".
That is a completely different existence from the careless self who is nicknamed the "hot-blooded crybaby".
"He" is calm, gentle and thoughtful - he calls himself You.
Whether it is "his" calm character, "his" subtle insight into things, or his precise control of people's hearts, these are things that Eijun, as the "right master", does not have.
The strong pitching and batting abilities created by this are what Eijun has always longed for.
So he asked the other half of his personality, asking "him" to guide him to become stronger.
In this way, the story between two half-personalities quietly unfolds around baseball.
"Your ambition breeds me,
Your thoughts infected me,
Your desires build bridges for us,
From now on, I will accompany you and guide you. "
——By You
"When your feet set foot on the black soil,
When your name is called loudly by everyone,
When you and your companions pick off the fruits of victory,
At that time, it's time for me to leave and never come back...
So,
Please remember me, My Ace. "
——By Sawamura Yu
"You are like the spring and summer breeze,
Accompanied me countless sweaty nights.
You come quietly and pass away quietly...
I'm looking for traces of your existence in the fallen red leaves,
But I only see the letters you left in the sunset,
Forgive me for becoming more and more like you after I can't find you,
That's my way of remembering half of you. "
——By Sawamura Eijun
