I've been waiting for the comment section to be available again so I could express my feelings about this. The first time I heard the news that the manga had ended, I was bursting with tears and anger. I've waited so long for Eijun to be the Ace and to be acknowledged for his skills, and the abrupt ending feels like the Ace number on his back wasn't given that much justice. I've painted a lot of scenes in my mind on how this story will continue. I still hope for more of Eijun and Koshu's battery (being the main catcher), Seto to join the first string, witness the third year graduating, and even just a glimpse of their professional or college baseball career. It pains me to paint a great colorful image of these characters continuing with their dreams, but was greatly disappointed by how it turns to grey. That was my first thought. But after getting some time to think, if it's painful for me or all the fans around the world the decision sensei to end the manga, imagine what he feels, the person who gives life to these characters. I know that more than anyone else, he's the most disappointed. It must be a heavy-heartening decision for him to end Eijun's journey and everyone else. I am just thankful right now that I was able to meet such great optimistic, skilled, and goal-driven characters. This has been a long journey, nevertheless worthy of all the emotional bursting. Thank you to Terajima sensei for giving life to inspirational characters. I was grateful to be and honored to be part of their long journey. Even though this story ended, they will continue to live with my heart and mind. And with how the story ended, I can continue painting in my mind how I want this story to continue. I've been an anime enthusiast for a long time, and I'm happy and proud to say that Eijun is one of my favorite main characters Sending my gratitude to Terajima Sensei and I hope nothing but his good health.
Ps. But please, praying so hard for the remaining chapters to be animated
