We Japanese love these high school baseball game. I think it is because we feel something very pure about these games. All for one and one for all. They dedicate so much of their high school life to baseball. Friendship, Discipline, Teamwork, Respect, Self-sacrifice. We can feel so many things about these games which we tend to lose or forget as we grow up. It is good for me to watch these games and remember when I was dedicating myself to something so precious for me and try not to forget or lose it. Sry for my English.

Cries you heart out on the field is insane, I play HS baseball but I’m from the Us, and you don’t have to play in high school or college get it minor league, but you have to love baseball with all your heart, mind, and body

They fight for their own pride and honor of representative their hometown, Todofuken.

i can only imagine the emotion. for the 3rd years this IS the last time they will ever play unless they get an offer from a professional team. they really play with everything they have. wow.

Damn!! DNA really got the details right

Their uniforms are like from the team Yakushi and Seido from Diamond No Ace

Tatsuya Shimizu, who appears at 3:05, is currently a pitcher for Chunichi Dragons of NPB. His name "Tatsuya" was named after the main character "Tatsuya" in Mitsuru Adachi's manga "Touch". What the two Tatsuya's have in common 1. his name is Tatsuya. 2. he was a pitcher and was given the uniform number 1. 3. he won the summer Koshien Championship in his third year of high school.

I hope I can watch this competition in the stadium. I'm really really going to watch it someday!

Win or lose, they all just super happy to have made it there. Comes down to: to be or not to be. And they became "to be" due to their hard work and dedication. That's the inspiring story of making it to participate at Koshien. Remember we are talking about young children of high school age, not about professionals with experience.

What many do not realize is the Japanese have been playing base ball since 1874. So, they have had about 150 years to make base ball a bit more suited to them.

In early years of Koshien history, teams from Taiwan and Korea which were both colonized by Japan at the time competed in the tournament and did well. The Taiwanese movie called "Kano" is worth watching.

Is really hard at first for most players but through out the course of highschools is become a norm, one of my best friends who is currently a main pitchers on our teams, start throwing 84, 86 when he was a sophomores and now he throw 92-96 as a seniors and commit to UK when he was a freshman, welllllll, he never at schools, like never, he spend most of his school time flying to Florida, LA, NY to practice with major league players and that just what he like, he wanna go big so have to invest big.

Teams in your movie also won several games in their local and advanced to the final tournament at Koshien. There will be lots human dramas, I think.

Because I play softball I don’t have much to relate with baseball but it’s the closest thing I can get to. Seeing how big this is excites me and makes me want to play so bad, to bad my season is on hold

Might be the only one, but Hinata's story from Angel Beats brought me here, I can understand why he would be so depressed, the audience was so big, important games, the one he played was the regional final, I feel empty now.......

oh look at their uniforms, did the DnA mangaka base Seido and Yakushi from these teams? that's so cute ❤❤❤ and I can't believe that scenes where they cry on their knees actually do happen, even the bench warmers do... aren't they so full of passion, just wow

すばらしい動画をありがとうございます。 高校野球は、プロスポーツにはない魅力があり、日本の夏の風物詩の１つとも言えますね。

It's kind of a shame how little overlap there is between Japanese and American baseball. Like the WBC is the only competition of note and it's not that prestigious given how many MLB players sit out. Like having the NPB and MLB champions play a 7 game series or having an international high school tournament would be awesome. There's certainly an appetite for that.

I am always wondering about Koshien since I found out about it from an anime called Daiya No A. Now, I am studying in Japan and I would like to watch this. Is it difficult to get the tickets for those Spring or Summer Koshien's matches? Since you said that the stadium is always full.

Most popular ticket will be quarter semifinals or semifinals or final. Other than that, it wouldn't be so difficult to get ticket. But seats in the shade will be tougher to get. In some case, if there is the very much talented player, the ticket for the game he play would be tougher to get either. If you go there, you will find that those school bands and cheers are also remarkable. Hoping you would be there someday.

High school baseball players play baseball as hard as they can to win the championship. The students who cheer for them also cheer hard, hoping for the victory. The tears that the players shed when they lose a close game are very moving. PS: More interesting than Japanese professional baseball. The reason is that high school ball players play very hard. （I use the Google Translate function.）

Dang i really didnt know average throwing speed was around 80 in japan, i wish i was going to schools in japan because in america, even the slowest seniors pitcher we have at our schools is 85-88 mph and the fastest we have is 94-96 mph, seniors as well.

Ohtani was already throwing 99mph in high school but he didn't make it to this summer tournament in his senior year. Pitchers aren't all about throwing fast balls. And they do have pitchers that throw 94-96 mph. There is a kid that throws 101 mph now. www.reddit.com/r/baseball/comments/ba475t/r%C5%8Dki_sasaki_a_high_school_pitcher_from_the_same/
