As a result, he became alienated from his middle-school team because he was far above them in ability. Satoru Furuya Position: Pitcher, Left Fielder Voiced by: Nobunaga Shimazaki Satoru Furuya ( 降谷 暁, Furuya Satoru) is Eijun’s rival, Furuya is a talented right-handed pitcher with extremely strong fastballs and forkballs which no catcher in Hokkaido was able to receive. Eijun and Miyuki developed this ability through accidental discovery after assistant coach Ochiai tried to teach him how to throw a change-up. It involves combining Eijun's unique throwing posture and improving ball control with various styles of hand grips and throwing methods, each style being given a number, hence the name. The main balls he throws are named "the numbers". Because his middle school team was so weak, he is extremely level-headed in critical times. He has a rivalry/friendship with Furuya Satoru, a fellow first-year pitcher, and often does things with him like training or sharing a book they borrowed from Miyuki. His hotheaded and loudmouth personality often cause his teammates exasperation because of his stupidity, yet it also rallies them during games at the same time. By the time Act II begins, however, he had overcome many of them, becoming particularly skilled at slash bunts and pick-offs. His weaknesses are control, outfield defense, and batting. Eijun’s strong points are his infallible spirit, bunting, infield defense, and his idiosyncratic pitches. Eijun eventually goes to Seidou and boldly declares that he will become the team ace. However, his friends encouraged Eijun to go to Seidou despite their reluctant feelings because they felt as if they were holding Eijun back. ![]() Initially, after Eijun had been scouted by Seidou, he had planned to refuse because he wanted to keep playing with his friends in the same high school. His childhood friend, Wakana, was the baseball team manager. However, Eijun has an extremely strong spirit which, no matter how hopeless the situation got, inspired his teammates to continue playing their best. His team was below average, often making mistakes during critical moments and losing almost all matches. Eijun comes from Nagano where he played baseball in his middle school. His knowledge about baseball is mediocre at best, but he strives to improve his skills and become Seidou's ace player, a goal he finally achieved in Act II. He was initially unaware of this quirk in his throws. However, this makes catching the ball difficult, as most catchers cannot predict where the ball will end up. Because Eijun has been playing baseball without proper instruction, his pitches normally change direction right before the batter hits the ball. His body is naturally flexible with supple joints, allowing him to immediately change the pitch’s direction. ![]() Eijun is a left-handed pitcher who has extremely erratic throwing motions. 1.1.8 Yūki's Generation (2 years above Sawamura)Ĭharacters Seidō High School Eijun Sawamura Position: Pitcher Voiced by: Ryōta Ōsaka Eijun Sawamura ( 沢村 栄純, Sawamura Eijun) is the main character.1.1.7 Miyuki's Generation (Current third years).1.1.5 Sawamura's Year (Current second years).
