To win, let’s walk the thorny path.
Isn’t this guy crazy?
>>1Isn’t it from the beginning?
You pushed yourself into the thorns, this guy…
>>2I have prepared a thorny path for everyone!
Alright!
>>103I forgive you because I have a more arduous path prepared for myself…
>>2I have prepared a thorny path for everyone!
Come on!
Bone-crushing man
This is a thorn bush that I raised.
Time and effort
Friendship
Conscience
Bone
You can sacrifice your conscience and your bones to make a cruel decision, but it’s nice that you’re not particularly wise and are genuinely suffering.
Was food poisoning better?
>>7The curry was sleeping next to the teacher, and that’s how it was…
Get away from the bones!
You’re the only one who made the cruel decision, right!?
>>9The other members made the cruel decision to leave it to Kobori.
I’m not a superhuman or anything; I’m just doing my best to push my limits.
He is also a player (prayer).
So that’s why I fold it.
>>10Pray!!
The existence of the recorder was hinted at explicitly.
It’s not that Kobori doesn’t have a heart, but they really don’t understand other people’s feelings…
Ordinary people wouldn’t be happy to break someone else’s bones, and it would be a burden.
>>12If I break my bone, I can put pressure on Takeuchi-kun!
>>13What does it mean to hang it up!?
>>14Somehow, Koshien will be advantageous!
>>15Even if someone who is not good enough to be on the bench tries hard, Koshien isn’t that easy…
It’s because they don’t have the ability that they’re not on the bench.
Once again, it’s impressive how the author provides that sense of satisfaction even though it’s biweekly.
>>16If I keep reading stuff like this every week, I’m going to go crazy…
>>16Do we have to wait until the week after next again!?
He is also an author who gives hope and expectations.
The context is definitely about a high school baseball manga…
It’s a mob, but was it the one that had a conversation with Kiriyama…
Thumbnail Da Vinci – Mount Osore
Takeuchi-kun’s improvisational skills.
Takeuchi-kun is an actor and seems to be incredibly successful.
>>23I want you to do it or rather I wish you would do it.
I guess I have a feeling that I want to be rewarded in some way.
Is there anyone who declares a fracture?
The image of the thread shows a pose that expresses the intention of dedicating the right wrist.
Understanding one’s own lack of ability and making full use of all the cards one has is impressive.
Takeuchi is impressive for finishing this much in just 30 minutes…
I like the way that boy, who isn’t so outstanding or perspective-driven, is somehow trying to find the best solution he can come up with, even if it means throwing everything else away.
I was curious about the part where the recorder suddenly appeared and the conversation was cut off in an instant.
Is this a foreshadowing that even a female manager character can enter?
>>31I guess it’s a big body after all…
>>36Is she the director’s sister?
>>31I explained it because the readers were saying a lot, right?
I’ve grown too much! Chirin chirin chirin!
Takeuchi is also convinced, isn’t he?
Kobori is not joking around.
And not everything is an act, right?
Summer high school baseball is a match where losing just once means the end, so the mental aspect is extremely important… you know.
>>35I need to quickly complete Sho-chan’s mental strengthening…
I work hard to go to Koshien.
Alright, nothing seems unnatural!
>>38Well, there are probably quite a few kids who have broken bones for the sake of Koshien.
>>40There are children who carry disabilities that have a greater impact on their lives than fractures.
There are aspects where I watch Koshien expecting that kind of thing.
Even just a little practice match in this world can bring out amazing geniuses.
It’s really fun to read about amazing people using various things to fight in different ways.
Even though Takeuchi isn’t that good at baseball, he contributes to the team with an amazing performance, and it’s impressive.
“Be sacrificed to go to Koshien.”
If I can go to Koshien, I’ll become the sacrifice.
Kobori is fine as is.
Takeuchi-kun has quite a bit of talent, doesn’t he?
What I talked about with Kiryama is true.
It’s not acting.
It’s precious.
Probably only spoke my true feelings in that scene, other than tears.
>>45Huh?
>>45Thank you, Takeuchi-kun. If we can go to Koshien, break my bones!!
>>45Huh!?
Are you alright? Want me to break a bone? Is food poisoning good for you?
Only I can make the cruel decision.
There are no exceptions for myself either.
If I can go to Koshien by breaking a bone, then I’ll break it…
>>49Since deciding on Koshien, it’s been tough!
Don’t fold it!
Up until two episodes ago, Saint Tere was in charge of the youth baseball manga.
What is this now…?
What kind of baseball club member could aim for an Oscar?
You can choose which bone you want! That’s not the point.
Are you possessed by Koshien?
I was trying to have Takeuchi-kun break my arm casually, but it didn’t work.
A recorder isn’t supposed to be done by Kobori, right?
>>60We will practice hard until Koshien and make it to the bench with our skills, and have Kobori become the record keeper.
When someone says, “Once we reach the stage where we can go to Koshien, I’ll break a bone to switch places!” you can’t help but be taken aback, right?
It seems like they are still trying to pull through about the bones until the very end this time.
Since my arm is broken, I’ll support everyone as a manager instead of an athlete! That might be okay.
No, do it without breaking.
Don’t try to make the right to choose your favorite bone sound like a benefit!
>>64Right now, I can break any bone I want!
>>64(So food poisoning is fine, huh…)
Is there really someone who would go to any lengths to offer various things?
I could read up to my conscience.
Bones are like…!?
In three years, having one person on the bench is more tragic, right? I was definitely angry about that, but afterward, the sheer determination was truly intimidating…
It looks like Takeuchi-kun is likely to succeed as an actor rather than in baseball, so it’s fine to stay as he is…
The cruel decision was more cruel than I thought.
Lieutenant Tsurumi and the likes of Lord Deluha.
>>72Because there is a human heart, it’s completely different.
I’m glad… you were aware that you were dedicating your conscience…
You’re too good at this! You must have been doing it, right!? Considering the original context, it gets complicated with the standard phrase.
You’re so good at it! You could aim for an Oscar!! A formula for genuine praise has been born from the bottom of my heart.
>>74It’s not acting, right?! That’s what you would reply…
To win
Let’s break the rib bone.
It seemed.
>>75Which rib bone should I break, nameless-kun?
You can decide.
The teacher is trying to take on the cruel decision for us; they are a really good teacher.
If you close your eyes to some parts
>>77Everyone’s sharpness stands out, and their shortcomings are easy to understand and interesting.
They say to break a bone, but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone trying to actually break one.
It’s scary that everyone has made a cruel decision together.
>>79It’s not right to put all the blame on Kobori for anything other than breaking bones.
Oh, it’s an easy-to-understand reveal explanation part that we often saw in the previous work, isn’t it?
…The atmosphere seems to have changed, huh?
So that’s why you bring the decision to cut yourself there…
It’s really interesting outside of the matches.
>>82The match is super interesting, right?!!
I like it when Kiriyama strikes out in one pitch.
The last one is
It’s acting.
Not there.
>>83From the big crying performance, it’s a complete turnaround; they really have some talent in something other than baseball…
Is Takeuchi-kun a saint?
I feel like the captain is going to get injured in the regional finals.
Isn’t this person a bad person?
It was an episode that clearly showed Kobori’s resolve.
Isn’t this guy definitely the Demon King?
>>87On the mound, it’s a villager.
>>87…Monster!!
>>87The demon king is someone else, so I reject it.
You’re a bad person, aren’t you?
If Takeda-kun gets caught folding it, he won’t be able to stay in the baseball club!
I’m sure they’ll use my injury just before Koshien to inspire themselves…
>>97It seems they might use the media to win public opinion on their side.
>>116It’s the worst, Saint Teresa…
It’s a good balance when Kobori gets annoyed.
But the readers were expecting the development where they hand over their own jersey number, right?
>>101Readers have seen Kiriyama’s reaction from last time too.
There are no fools in this world.
Everyone is just facing different directions.
It’s a villager playing a completely different game separate from Inou.
As a form of atonement, I’ll let the opponent choose which bones to break… I don’t want to do that!
>>105In the end, I really don’t want it to come to the point where you have to fold it with your hands, Takeuchi-kun!
(Takeuchi-kun…! Incredible acting skill…! This is on the level of a femur!)
It was somewhat anticipated that Kobori would voluntarily step out of the bench players in order to encourage his teammates after Kiriyama’s withdrawal.
I didn’t expect this to happen…
Kobori came to practice every day earlier than anyone else.
Takeuchi knows that.
>>111That doesn’t mean you can say whatever you want!
>>111Takeuchi must know since he came right after Kobori.
Today we made a cruel decision.
It’s scary how casually it’s being turned into a consensus.
>>112It is essential to make collaborators because it is a strategy for unity.
>>112Since this is a plan for unity, it is essential to make them accomplices.
I will break my dominant arm!
You fold it!
You can choose which bone to break!
Is it better to have food poisoning?
(Thank you, if I can go to Koshien, please fold it.)
This time, Teacher Aja is just beautiful.
As expected, Takeuchi-kun really excels in his performance, surpassing Kiryuyama.
To be honest, I think it’s not balanced even if I break my arm.
>>118Breaking my arm is a guarantee that I will make it to Koshien in the process.
>>118The main goal is to put Takeuchi-kun on the bench, and the injury is just a means to that end.
But I feel really bad, and I was truly helped, so at least I’ll ask Takeuchi-kun to fold my favorite part…
Is Todoroki getting scared when seeing a fracture…?
It’s common to hear that one will not choose means to win, but I’ve never seen someone go this far.
Break a bone.
You can choose the bones.
No, it’s fine if you fold it.
Don’t try to make Takeuchi break his bones.
>>123It’s rare for a department head to have zero percent calculation and genuine goodwill!
>>126This is too scary, even with good intentions!
By breaking my arm, I can do my best for Kobori too! That’s what this guy is aiming for.
I’m too excited to see what Kobori will do from now on.
>>125It’s a revolution! Let’s hang the baker!
The last one isn’t an act, oh?!
I love that it surpasses even the strategist Kobori’s predictions.
I like that bamboo.
Huh, you would have preferred a food poisoning?
Aren’t these guys’ talents outside of baseball capped out?
This guy alone has the mentality of someone from “Usogui” or “Junket Bank.”
Isn’t Kobori not as much of a strategist as you say?
>>132Taking actions beyond the plan
It feels like the kind of thing that leads you to say “Huh?!”
>>132The strategist is either Hirose or Inou.
Kobori has a high skill in understanding people’s hearts, and his brakes are completely broken.
>>132The courage to go to an adult drinking party and gather evidence is already quite ridiculous.
>>132I think this is a really good balance.
In the end, it feels good to still be a high school student.
>>132The skill to set the stage is undoubtedly there.
It’s just that they can’t fully trace the actor’s ad-lib.
>>162I have good communication skills.
I understand that I’m not that smart myself either.
This time, being evaluated by others once again is about being able to make crazy decisions.
Without the bones, it was a surprisingly normal and decent baseball manga episode.
If only there were no bones.
>>135Was food poisoning better?
I wonder if the part in the thread where I brought out the thorn is an expression of me saying that.
Rather than a strategist, a trickster strategist.
When it comes to high school baseball!
Friendship, effort, bones!
Was this guy the Gresham slot…?
It’s great that the protagonist always surpasses this abnormal person’s predictions.
I love the kind of development where they’re willing to give up a bone or two just to win…
>>145In a baseball manga, and it’s on my side!?
I think Kobori just has an abnormal communication ability and a craziness that allows him to push straight through what others would normally hesitate over.
Win!! Win!! Win!!Is the last one here intentional, I wonder?
I wonder if players who seemed like mobs will be introduced like this?
Natural Psychopath
They’re still a third-year high school student. It’s no surprise they’re inexperienced as a strategist. They are a promising talent to look forward to from here on out. So, break away from the past.
I think my obsession with bones also has a bit of guilt involved.
Use all available means!
It felt like an explanation round or something.
It’s clear from last time that everyone gets motivated when they see Kobori’s aim or those who fell off the bench.
>>158This is a necessary episode to clearly depict that Takeda-kun is not just a convenient puppet for Kobori, but rather a real human being who is the only third-year member unable to participate in the match and is working beyond Kobori’s expectations.
Injuries are certainly a part of baseball, but I never expected it to come in this form…
If it continues to the Koshien edition, will Kobori become the record keeper?
Well, I’m basically the director after all.
Could it be that the curry sleeping next to the teacher is a foreshadowing of food poisoning?
It’s amazing that it generally exceeds expectations.
You’ve gone and broken my bones…
You can choose the bones!
There are often characters who are determined to make sacrifices and put in effort more than others, but…
This is the first time I’ve seen a character with bones in the sacrifice.
Well, if everything went exactly as Kobori predicted, it wouldn’t be interesting.
That is also a good balance for a manga.
It seems that Hirose has a better sports IQ and strategic mind.
Kobori is a mentally unstable person.
High school baseball isn’t something you take on with that kind of determination.
>>171If someone without talent dreams, it’s just how it is.
>>171Would you have preferred food poisoning?
It’s the same with bones, but isn’t it quite something to pass the ticket to Koshien if you get it?
In the previous work, Luke was being tossed around by the country.
I felt the intention that you can’t completely control each individual person.
Kiriyama’s offer to decline also includes Takemura conveying his true feelings and stopping him from doing so.
>>173You can aim for an Oscar!
In a biweekly series, it’s taking three episodes to discuss who to pass the jersey number to, which is a painfully slow pace, but why is it still interesting every time???
It seems like there won’t be a Koshien edition.
Well, since Hamazou is seedless, considering that there will be 8 matches, there is enough volume.
I understand that it requires sacrificing time and effort.
Friendship, conscience, and bones?
It’s really good to see that Takayuki-kun is not just a nice person but also a proud baseball player, and that he gets properly angry about being removed for the sake of unity.
>>177Thank you so much… At least let me break a bone for you…
Many players are likely to dedicate themselves to the point of sacrificing everything except for their bones.
This guy is so cute that it’s scary.
I think the good thing about Kobori is simply that he isn’t a psychopath.
Because of a lack of empathy, it’s not just about choosing a crazy optimal solution… but rather, it’s a student who admires professionals and loves their team enough to charge in full throttle, fully aware of the risks and pain involved, like a passionate baseball boy.
Thinking about the time when this guy will do something other than baseball in the future is truly frightening.
It’s scary that there are times when I think about what I want to happen as a scheming character, and there are times when I wonder what will happen next.
Before I knew it, I got caught up in a bet.
Without baseball, they may just be an amazing person who gets along well with anyone.
I’m prepared to do literally anything to take Hama-sou to Koshien.
It seems like Takeuchi-kun will continue to showcase his acting skills even from outside the bench…
The type that makes a mess of their career advancement.
The type that fails when starting a company.
Winning! Winning! Winning! Knowing that this is Shigeo Nagashima’s catchphrase, it’s so stylish!
>>190The author is too good at manga! You must have practiced, right!?
>>197Ah! I was doing it!
Winning, winning, winning! Since it’s a current topic, it really brought a tear to my eye, but not many people are talking about this…
>>191Only old men can really talk about that story…
>>191It might be enough to have a joke that even a few comments mention, something that those who understand will get.
>>191It might mean that it’s reaching even people who don’t know about it around here.
If those people knew, they would definitely be impressed!
The craziest one of the thank-you pitch.
I thought this in the previous work as well, but this author really doesn’t waste characters, does he?
Even background characters, not just named ones, always have a role.
You’ve really overdeveloped your skills in grasping people’s hearts.
It’s not about charisma, but more like a shadow ruler type…
You wouldn’t think this is a foreshadowing, right…?
Sanbaaaa!! Switch it up!! You can win!! Kiriyama, your voice is loud!! You don’t even talk in class!! What are you saying!! Without support, I can’t be saved and can’t exert my strength!! I’ve been helped many times!! Now it’s my turn to support!! Sanba-senpai, fight~!! … That’s surprising. Wait, Kiriyama is supporting…? Really…? Kiriyama… You used to say your body was strong, right? You must have always been the one receiving support, right? Honestly, how do you feel? We on the bench sometimes feel anxious. Does support really mean anything? Ji…n
>>202Compared to others, you have a better-looking face, but it’s still a mob face, Takeuchi.
>>202Initially, it will be used to establish Kiryama’s character.
Next, it will be used as motivation entrusted to Kiriyama in the regular competition scene.
You’re too good! You can aim for an Oscar!!
I thought it was handed to Kobori, but the eye drops were his own, and I laughed.
It’s good that it’s easy to collapse because it’s built on human relationships and has irregularities like Kiriyama.
