Fall 1977

Arsène Lupin III never stays in one country, one disguise, or one plan for very long. With the sharpshooter Daisuke Jigen, master swordsman Goemon Ishikawa XIII, and the endlessly unpredictable Fujiko Mine crossing in and out of his schemes, he targets fortunes, artifacts, and impossible prizes across the world.Every caper brings elaborate traps, rival criminals, dangerous organizations, and the relentless Inspector Zenigata, who remains convinced that this will finally be the chase that puts Lupin behind bars. Yet Lupin's greatest talent is turning disaster into opportunity, escaping with a grin even when the treasure itself slips through his fingers.

Five years have passed since Hyuuma Hoshi destroyed his left arm and vanished from professional baseball. In 1975, he quietly reappears, having trained deep in the mountains with the intention of returning as a batter rather than the pitcher he once was.His path changes again when coach Big Bill Thunder recognizes another possibility: Hyuuma can rebuild himself as a right-handed pitcher. With a new arm, a new style, and the weight of his old reputation still following him, Hyuuma fights his way back toward the mound and the sport that once consumed his life.

Kanta Tobase lives for baseball, just as his late father once did. His mother, however, wants nothing to do with the sport, believing her husband's devotion to it helped take him away from the family. Her refusal only makes Kanta practice more stubbornly, often in secret.When opportunities arise to prove himself on the field, Kanta throws his entire body and spirit into every play. His passion gradually draws in his brothers, sisters, friends, and even his reluctant mother, giving the large Tobase family a chance to rediscover baseball not as a source of loss, but as something they can share together.
