Synopsis

The Baseball World Cup is nearing, and Gorou Honda is eager to represent his country. However, one small problem stands in his way: the team roster has already been selected, and he is not a part of it.

Nonetheless, Gorou remains adamant to join. He becomes a practice pitcher for the Japanese national team, hoping to demonstrate his incredible speed and skills to the team's manager. Fortunately, Gorou is given the chance to prove his worth: he must show an impressive performance in the upcoming practice match involving the veteran Japanese team and the young players who hope to replace them.

The World Cup will bring together some of the strongest players from around the globe. It will also set the stage for Gorou's long-awaited showdown with his longtime rival, Joe Gibson.

Baseball, in my province, is infamous for being a very slow and boring sport to watch. I would usually follow a few matches on TV even though my aunt would always fall asleep in middle of the match. Indeed, baseball can be boring to watch, but it is in no way boring to play. This sport is probably one of the most exciting to take part in. While it seems slow when you're watching it, it goes really, really fast if you're actually on the field.

Major S5 makes me feel exactly like that. Being on the field, even though I'm sitting on a couch watching ...

“The one and only passion”

The Story…

It’s the sum of all the first four episodes where dreams really came true. The story is about the final stage where baseball players live their dream as a professional. In this series, the final stage is a stage that is not common that takes place in an event of which you didn’t expect at most. Surely in this path there are obstacles that will stop you as it also helps you to grow stronger.

The main attraction here would be about baseball and its spirit. As you watch this series most of the characters will be talking about baseball. ...

Preliminary (2/25 eps)
Okay first of all this is by far the best baseball anime ever made...
This anime is similar to the 4th season of major and a little of 3rd but with a little twist. Season 5 of Major starts off by telling us of the world baseball tournament and that will be held soon (sorry date not yet available) and about the Japanese that will soon be recruiting members for its team. No more INFO,if you want more information about Major please feel free to contact me in my profile and ill tell you more about this season or previous ones...
