@Leviathan1132 Sorry if this may be late to say but on page 11 the word "pitch" is misspelled. I like how Taichi is direct & to the point of how serious they need to be. Never thought an isekai involving baseball would entertain me plus the art is nicely done especially on the females. Thanks for the translations.
@LakeFreeter1 The things that are called good writing on manga sites fucking blow my mind. Every single thing about this manga is poorly written and it's clearly just made to pander to losers who played baseball for years only to wash up and realize it didn't translate to a single life skill or any amount of sex appeal.
the only interesting thing bout it is that its an isekai baseball but it make no sense that nobody ever tried to change how they throw the ball they dont even need science for that , its just fanservice for fans of buttball
@3am It may not make perfect sense but I think it makes more sense than you give it credit for. Even though pitchers started throwing overhand in 1884 it took 40 years before the slider was invented, the changeup did not appear until the 1940s, and the splitter came about in the 1970s which was almost 100 years after someone could have started trying to throw the ball in that way. Even though baseball first started getting played in the 1840s it was not until the 1870s that the first breaking pitches started to be thrown underhand. This is the case despite the fact that cricket had been being played for over 200 years before baseball came about. I don't think it is inconceivable that if no one was teaching people to throw different pitches (because they were treated as state secrets) breaking balls might never have become common. It's a lot harder to learn a breaking ball than just trying to throw differently before you reach a certain level of spin you will not see much of an effect on a lot of breaking pitches. it is of note that according to Baseball Almanac "For a long time, it was suspected that the pronounced drop of the curve ball was an optical illusion, until photography and lighting advanced to the point where it could be objectively proven to be a product of fluid dynamics, utilizing the Magnus Effect."
@LakeFreeter1 The protagonist is the most integral part of almost every story/plot, so when refer to one I'm talking about both. The lead here is just a typical dense Mary Sue just like with every other isekai. Everything he does is generic. The serious glances in every other panel, the misleading flirty requests, the "spartan training" gimmick, the freaking out after seeing a naked girl, it's all been done a million times before with the same execution. I don't know how you could call this good writing unless you think like every protagonist out there is well-written.
