Cross Game

Ko Kitamura grows up beside the Tsukishima family's batting center, sharing his days with Wakaba and trading arguments with her baseball-loving sister Aoba. A sudden loss changes those familiar relationships and leaves behind a dream of playing at Koshien.

As Ko develops into a pitcher, the sport becomes a way of keeping that dream alive. Aoba's demanding eye and stubborn pride push him onward, even when neither can easily speak about the person whose memory connects them.
