Battle Studies

You can’t win through only with “friendship” and “youth”. We stake our lives to get to Koshien!! Kanou Shoutarou entered an official baseball club at one of the best powerhouse baseball schools in the country - DL Gakuen. However the discipline in the club, he admired so much, was beyond all imagination! From Nakibokuro - the former member of PL Gakuen’s baseball club who played at the Koshien as the regular!
