An alternate universe.
"Everyone! It's a pleasure to meet you! My name is Sawamura Eijun, and I'm eighteen this year.
I'm a first-year student in the Film and Media Studies program at Waseda University's School of Humanities and Social Sciences. For certain reasons, I currently live in a nice apartment nearby with a troublesome upperclassman.
I'll let you in on a secret: I'm actually an actor.
Huh?! You recognized me? What, no way... Is it really that obvious?! Well, there's no use hiding it now that you've found out!
That's right! I'm an actor signed with Seido Entertainment. I'm still a small-time newcomer, like a fledgling bird... but I, Sawamura Eijun, won't let you down!
Everyone, I hope you'll continue to look after me!
P.S.
Shh! I'll tell you a secret... Hey, wait! This time it's really a secret. I mean it!
Actually... I met you all in another world long ago.
That's right. I'm a player."
Sawamura Eijun is a rising actor who's already made a name for himself. Alongside his day-to-day work and studies, he has one little hobby: playing games!
Three years ago, the baseball game "Koshien Story" appeared out of nowhere, then vanished just as suddenly. It left a huge impression on him.
At first, he didn't think much of it. But when he actually met those familiar faces in real life, Sawamura Eijun finally understood: it was a game, but it wasn't just a game.
Now, the game "Koshien Story" has somehow appeared in his everyday life once again.
With his gaming philosophy of "no saving, just start a new game when you die" (sort of), can he, as a New Game Plus player, achieve the perfect ending this time?
His goal: beat the game in one life!
In short, it's a laid-back story about actor Ze Bai shooting dramas by day and playing baseball by night.
No romantic pairings. Naruto and Sawamura have a close, platonic relationship. Everyone gets love.
In the real world, everyone's involved in the entertainment industry, so they're a bit older. In the game world, they're all baseball players, mostly high schoolers.
Theme: Every element of the setting serves everyday life.
Teacher, you have worked hard to produce food, is it possible to continue writing?
No, darling, I really want to see the follow-up of Eijun and the others! 🤩🤩
I've thought about the outline, but I can't continue writing. It seems that the passion has disappeared.
