posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The official website for the television anime of Mountain Pukuichi's Tamayomi manga revealed a teaser visual, staff, and the spring 2020 premiere for the series on Monday.
Toshinori Fukushima (Major, Beyblade the Movie: Fierce Battle) is directing the anime at Studio A-Cat (Frame Arms Girl, Pastel Life). Touko Machida (Wake Up, Girls!, Harukana Receive) is in charge of series composition. Koichi Kikuta (KONOSUBA, Fruits Basket) is designing the characters.
The manga's story centers on pitcher Yomi Takeda. In junior high, her baseball club did not get far because it lacked a catcher that could catch Yomi's "miracle ball." Yomi quit baseball, graduated from junior high, and enrolled at Shin Koshigaya High School. Yomi reunited with her childhood friend Tamaki Yamazaki at her new school. Tamaki has skill as a catcher and can even catch the ball when Yomi pitches with all her strength. The girls can fulfill their childhood promise to each other as they start their baseball journeys anew.
The manga launched in Manga Time Kirara Forward in April 2016, and Houbunsha released the fifth compiled book volume on March 12. The sixth volume will ship on September 12.
