Description

[Machine Translation] [The 65th Anniversary of Asahi Kobayashi's Debut: Nikkatsu DVD Series] A total of 22 films, including re-released low-priced titles and films never before released on disc, tracing the history of the Mighty Guy, Asahi Kobayashi! Two newcomers to the professional baseball world compete for the rookie of the year and love in this youth drama. Directed by the brilliant Umeji Inoue. --Two men land in the town of Ito, where the Tokyo Dippers have their rookie testing ground. Shinjiro Sarumaru, a professional boxer, wants to be a pitcher and respects Dippers manager Onuki. Heisuke Kuroyanagi dreamed of becoming a big hitter. When Sarumaru was in trouble with a pickpocket on the train to Ito, a young woman who said she was a fan of the Dippers paid his train fare. The woman's name was Toyoko, Onuki's younger sister. Sarumaru throws a wild pitch in a test, gets laughed at, and tries to go back to the gym. However, Onuki recognized Sarumaru's talent more than Kuroyanagi's dynamic hitting. Dippers decided to hire the two. Behind the scenes, Koshiba, the manager of the second team, was trying to unseat Onuki, believing that the team would not win the championship even if he brought the two new players on board. However, the two new recruits disappear in the face of high expectations. First DVD release (HD remastering), picture disc specification (planned).
Special Feature / Bonus Track: theatrical trailer(s) (subject to change)

映像特典(予定): オリジナル劇場予告篇 (※予定。予告編原版の無い作品は収録されません。)、フォトギャラリー収録
