Despite being one of the top pure mental characters in this manga…

>>2

Wasn’t this manga a thank-you pitch!?

>>2

Ayase River is currently in middle school year 1, so I don’t know what will happen when they reach high school year 1.

It’s strange that they’re doing a decent youth baseball drama.

People who are no good keep coming out one after another!

Even though I can observe that you’re protecting your elbow, not recognizing that as a weakness goes beyond just how you use your talent!

>>11

To be honest, I was surprised by Kiriyama and got distracted by that Minecraft guy, so if I hadn’t gotten caught up in a brain game (laughs), I would have won by a landslide…

There is no idea of deliberately targeting the gap in defenses.

You recover from setbacks quickly…

When I revisit the beginning, I realize that if we use this guy, we can go to Koshien! I feel gratitude… gratitude? towards St. Helena that wouldn’t let go.

>>13

I’m going to use it for my job change!

Maybe it’s a character that was really created with A in mind.

Recently, the real one has been getting close to me in terms of personality…

I’ve really grown as a person!

The regular mob’s level seems to be quite high on this side.

>>21

Both our side and the enemy side connect well and score points, you know.

Why am I protecting my right elbow for some reason…?

Baseball can’t be played alone…!

>>23

Huh?

Do it!

>>23

(Why is this a double-page spread?)

I might be unconsciously stopping my thoughts and acting like an idiot because I’ve had a lot of unpleasant experiences in the past.

>>25

I think the fundamental reason for transferring schools was feeling isolated, and it must have been quite tough until you started playing baseball, right…?

Huh?

There are no Kiryama in the Ayase River.

Yamato… you were an amazing hitter in the one-shot, weren’t you…?

In this case, the mental aspect is cleaner than the Ayase River.

What I need in the Ayase River is a teammate like Kobori.

It’s being clearly shown how characters like this are created when the author of hyperinflation draws a baseball manga.

I may be a loser, but I hate cunning tricks.

It turns out they just couldn’t pull off the small tricks.

Rather beautiful

The Ayase River is dirty now.

It’s a baseball manga like I’ve never read before, but it’s really interesting.

It’s a shame it’s a bi-weekly serialization.

I hope A will be like this when they become a high school student.

A life hack where having a surrounding that is mediocre allows a genius to freely do as they please without hesitation.

By the way, what’s up with Kiriyama protecting his right elbow?

I think Todoroki started playing baseball in middle school, so there are simply some areas where he lacks experience.

Isn’t Todoroki like Ayasegawa, where the adults around him get their brains fried and come closer?

>>52

I’m coming.

Right now, I’m just blocking people.

I’m glad you were blocked.

Because there’s swimming behind this, it really is A, you know?

>>60

When read across the spread, the difference in both parties’ touches highlights each other’s expressions, making quite an impact.

>>60

That’s too good!

You were doing it, weren’t you!

Although there are better skilled artists in the thread, A is the best in the world and stands out in both sports IQ and observational skills.

>>55

A knows how to use their talent…

You might not understand.

Masumi is quite twisted, but she is really infatuated with Tohru’s talent, isn’t she?

>>56

That’s why I understand that you shouldn’t deny your own genius.

There have been more baseball manga lately about the struggles of geniuses.

You’re doing something like A in the past…

Although we are of different ages, it seems that we have grown up quite differently…

In other words, it was me who was secretly seeking companions that wouldn’t leave.

I felt that the collaboration play was skillful in the depiction of the talented student relying on the genius in Dandadan.

Both this and Jump’s baseball manga “Forget” are amazing because they’re interesting.

I was thinking, is Ayasegawa a character from Slam Dunk?

We, who blocked out useless information and worked hard as the ace, are truly wonderful.

I’m trying to create an effect, but isn’t it unnecessary now?

Aren’t you all wonderful for doing your best with Ace?

>>68

I think the atmosphere got really bad because everyone was just joking around to hide their embarrassment, but it was actually a team that was seriously there to support Ace.

What I’m really curious about is how Todoroki perceives professional baseball.

>>70

It feels like a team match of superhumans…?

Ayasegawa is blessed with good friends in high school, as we know from the beginning of the main story…

Until middle school, using your talent like “I’ll take advantage of you, hehehe” doesn’t really go well, does it?

Even though they are on the opposing team, I’ve started to like Todoroki and Masumi quite a bit.

Even though he’s on our side, Kobori is starting to be pretty scary.

>>72

Ally…?

It’s amazing how the mental state can recover in just one episode.

A has quite a few good friends like Yasu around them, yet they’re being too despondent.

>>76

The assumption of the previous resolution was that first base would take it, so I don’t think they’re that oblivious to their surroundings.

All my reliable friends.

The villagers and Minecraft players are too evil.

>>79

I’m only doing things that are not against the rules…

I am a genius!! I just don’t know how to use my talent properly!!

I want to use it a little too.

The antagonist side is written just as richly as the protagonist side, right?

What do you mean, this is the evil demon lord’s army?

>>83

This is when the enemy side of the protagonist comes.

Perhaps one reason I came to play team baseball, which cannot be completed alone, is because people always leave.

I felt a bit swayed, but don’t just throw it away saying it doesn’t matter!

You have an amazing eye for observation, but you can’t understand how dangerous Kobori is.

>>85

It seems that Todoroki can only see the statuses he understands…

>>89

It seems like they will notice that there are monsters inside after the match…

>>85

A person who has levelled up normally wouldn’t understand power leveling.

I don’t think Todoroki has ever tried to let his opponent shoot on purpose because he felt sorry for them, like A does.

Kobori’s plan is also cruel, but the person themselves lacks baseball skills, so for the match to happen, it’s really too cruel to rely on the battery.

Despite being called a genius for this guy’s abilities, he really has his feet on the ground.

I wish A could say something like this.

>>92

Please look forward to it.

Even those playing Minecraft properly had a bat in hand.

From the description of the Minecraft guy, you can see through to their inner self, so I wonder what Kobori being a villager is all about…

A person like Todoroki is treated like a god if they’re a doctor, right?

Compared to Ayasegawa, their batting is stronger, they have an almost supernatural observational power, and they throw pitches good enough that you can’t hit them unless your mental state is disrupted, but maybe they lack the overall sense to make baseball work.

>>101

A has little understanding of baseball.

>>101

Baseball is a sport where you work together.

>>116

Huh? You can do it! By yourself!

Ayase River is fundamentally too weak mentally.

>>102

I’m an elementary school student!

>>107

“Become as good as Nogoro.”

>>102

Ayase River, even as an elementary school student, doesn’t let any condition or situation affect their pitching; it’s rather like a mental super alloy.

It’s just too delicate…

Since my friend fully affirmed my genius, there’s no doubt that I’m a genius.

The scary thing about Kobori is that they immediately want to engage in a match that requires teamwork!

Is it a demon?

>>104

I want to do everything I can in the practice match since there’s not much time left until the actual event.

Everyone has been distancing themselves, and I was properly aware of it…

Isn’t the content too stuffed every time?

You were doing it, author!

“I want to win against Kiriyama! Even though it’s a manga like this, it really struck a chord with me…”

>>110

I’m protecting my right elbow, but what’s that!?

Kobori is just in a bad mood right now and can’t do anything during the match.

The villagers have an average physique as baseball players.

If it’s going to collapse to this extent, then going to Koshien is impossible!

A crazy villager who takes a truly dangerous strategy.

It seems that your heart is getting hurt every time you are avoided…

It’s wonderful to be dirty in a different way than Miss Full.

Kobori and Inou’s compatibility is so good that it makes me laugh.

I really understood the reason why this author is praised as a genius in the last few episodes.

I had no interest in baseball, but I was suddenly captivated.

>>122

They’re also skilled at quickly absorbing baseball knowledge, such as understanding first to third base situations.

>>137

“One Nouts is also recommended as it deepens understanding of baseball.”

>>137

No!

It might be as Tokuchi says!

>>160

That’s amazing! Let’s tear apart the Mariners’ teamwork like this!!

I wonder what pace they’re planning to depict throughout all the matches…

The atmosphere of the opposing team has improved somehow, and it’s a great strategy by the opponent’s coach to arrange a practice match with many orders, making sure to respect his position.

It’s a really intense development when the first enemy reveals their weakness.

>>127

I’m surprised that it was revealed in the first match.

>>141

Well, even with hyperinflation, the weaknesses were revealed fairly quickly…

He started saying some seriously awful things after I was laughing and calling him a jerk…

But it’s just a practice match…

The three-ball limit is also subconsciously protecting my elbow, so I wonder if my pitching power would increase without that restriction.

What A did the other day is also something that can only be done by working together, in a way…

In reality, Yamato, who is only being seen for their efforts, has no friends.

The question of what to do with 2 more pitches plus 1 against Todoroki.

Next time, I will probably miss it.

This match is often mentioned, but it’s a completely closed private match.

Kobori, could it be that you calculated that your weakness in the right elbow would be exposed…?

>>136

If you didn’t consider that, you must be an idiot…

>>136

If I keep using it, it’ll eventually be found out, and if there’s someone from the enemy who knows about Kiriyama’s past, that alone would be a big crisis.

>>149

There are definitely people, both children and adults, who know about it.

The weakness in my elbow has been exposed, after all.

Is there a measure against cuts?

>>138

Surely, it’s not being noticed that I can only pitch two more balls.

>>143

Three fingers are sticking out, but what is that!?

It’s an exciting development where I regain my arrogant character in response to my friends’ expectations, but immediately afterward, there’s a gag.

I might actually lose just because I’ve looked too deeply into the abyss.

>>140

We can play baseball again from scratch!

Is the decisive pitch to Todoroki a forkball?

By the way, I wonder why he’s protecting his right elbow!?

If Ayasegawa had been at this school, it might not have been so painful.

>>158

Children whose hearts are broken by geniuses are one thing, but the adults are too dirty…

>>151

It’s tough because everyone around is just pure, innocent baseball kids.

>>164

The characters in this manga are baseball kids, but everyone has a tenacity that’s as rough as a sewage river…

>>173

Wait! The Hamason mob is actually a good bunch, isn’t it?

Only 3 out of the named ones are worthless!

>>182

Yeah! It’s okay!!

I’ll still get dirty for the sake of victory!

I’m looking forward to it!

>>165

Showing off the difference in talent with all my might is just something that makes me happy; it’s like heaven for Aya.

I was sad that the image of a free-to-play user was different from Tohru…

The current image of high school students who are free-to-play users isn’t just wearing a white T-shirt and shorts…

>>153

In the first place, that image is probably about as good as Mobage!

I mean, Mobile Game also had a mismatched outfit from the free gacha, right!

I’ve usually avoided sports manga where talent clouds the surrounding atmosphere, but this manga has a really good sense of distance that helps a lot.

There are developments that can only happen because it’s a practice match.

The intensity is at the national tournament level.

The author was doing it, right!

If it gets found out, I can also research ways to deal with it, so it’s beneficial.

The main focus is on durability testing, after all.

Someday, when we rematch in an official match, I’ll bet on Sho-chan’s briefs even though my right arm’s bomb is gone.

It’s amazing even at this level, but Kiriyama originally had specifications that were even better; that’s just crazy.

>>161

Even just what I can see, the physical aspect is amazing.

With that physique, they’re incredibly fast on their feet too.

>>167

Once you’ve thrown three pitches, all you can do for the rest of the time is run.

>>161

Kirishima is probably already a talent on the level of Matsuzaka and the like.

>>171

I mean, it’s not a talent that can be measured with existing players.

It’s something that God sent to end the sport of baseball.

Well, without denying the genius aspect overall, we shifted from doing it alone to a team-oriented approach, so the next roar is going to be a hassle.

Well, Kobori just wants to make the team stronger…

>>163

Aren’t there many times when your opinions differ from Hirose’s?

>>174

Everyone is smart in their own way!

>>174

It’s not a problem because we are both using each other.

A’s mental breakdown is mostly due to the opponent being weaker than themselves, so they normally win the match results.

Even Todoroki has gone through tough times in the past, so it shouldn’t be any different in the world of Thank You Pitch.

If someone confidently says, “We’re going to Koshien by using you!” it does seem like it would feel refreshing in its own way.

>>170

Even if the way of saying it is a bit rough, it’s important to be clear about what your goal is.

Until now, I’ve only had opponents who could be overwhelmed by talent, so there was no need for strategic maneuvering…

The scene where Minecraft villagers are just walking around is quite funny.

>>178

The irritation of having zero interest, caution, or even anxiety about the risk of restraint, combined with that infuriating face, is just too good.

Being treated like a monster by a longtime ally is pretty harsh.

I wonder if that villager can destroy A’s mental state.

>>183

I can probably do it with ease…

>>183

I’d rather see a story where A teams up with the villagers to aim for the Koshien championship than one that destroys A’s mental state.

That’s too unfair, Kiriyama, to use dual-wielding like that!

>>184

Isn’t it great? He’s a man loved by the god of baseball!

There are probably fewer guys aiming to be professionals on the pitch, like around Aya…

The strongest hitter in high school baseball history is finally someone like Kiriyama.

>>191

Kiyohara? Kiyomiya? Rintaro?

The Ino here is cute, isn’t it?

The large dog on the right too.

It was Inou who broke my mental state!

Kobori just got really into it and went all out with the punchline.

If diamonds were to appear in this world

Everyone polishes to the point of death, right?

Gold~~~~~~~!!!
