and Manga Koshien - Hoshi of the Giants (Part Three)

Plot Hoshi cardboard
The family leads a life very poor. The father works as a laborer to keep his two sons, Tommy / Hyūma and her older sister Giusy / Akiko. The child is training hard to become a great baseball player. A push in this direction so obsessive is the father Arthur / Ittetsu, already widowed middle-aged man, a great baseball player during the Second World War had to say goodbye to a promising sporting career with the Giants because of a mythical shoulder injury ...


projects on the boy's father authoritarian aspirations and even missed the hardening forces the child to wear a harness all springs and iron in his opinion should strengthen the muscles of the shoulders and chest area. Moreover, the obligation to always use the left hand while the child is a natural right (a particular that reminds me of the youth of Hideki Matsui ...). Usually even the weird creations arise from practical problems to which the great minds trying to give solutions. Or so they say ... Not having apparently nothing better to do, or driven by an incurable entuasiasmo for his favorite hero, some wag Japanese inventor has made up his mind to recreate the bracatura sprung worn by Tommy, touted as a good way to strengthen the muscles. Seeing is believing, as someone said. But then the picture is still not a coach with the charisma of Arthur Young!

After enrolling in any way to the prestigious high school Seiun / Sinclair, the boy meets Chuta Ban (Charlie Red), which leaves the loved judo and became his best friends and inseparable receiver. Parentheses duty: how did Tommy to join that exclusive school attended by children of single fathers? E because Mr. Red, the father of Charlie and headteacher, has so much to heart that his school arrives at Koshien? Certainly not to reward the boys. His desire is driven only by the rivalry against Hanagata Motors (GM Mitchell?), The automobile company of the family of Alexander that rivals his. He needs a miracle to beat the high school pitcher to show Alexander and his total superiority against the competitor. That's why welcomes in his exclusive school a boy of poor extraction as Tommy. And not merely this: in order to achieve his goal, the volcanic Mr Red goes so far as to engage the father Arthur as coach. But, as we shall see, will be useless. The Seiun earns finals Koshien (Olympiastadium. .. mah!) In the semifinals by defeating the Newton High School (Kumamoto Norin) Eyewear Hōsaku Samon (Simon Holden). However, thanks to a finger injury, the team will be defeated in the final by Tommy Collins high school (Koyo) of Mitsuru Hanagata (Alexander Mitchell).

From then on Simon and Alexander become his most bitter rivals. This will result in even recruited by the Hanshin Tigers , historical enemies Sports Giants, which will further increase their rivalry on the diamond. Expelled from high school, Tommy has a Giants training camp, and is beyond the choice of professionals, crowning his dream and his father. However, the young rebels of obsession that Arthur now takes away the breath and the way a family conflict that will drag on until the end of the series. In fact, to combat it while the father is even hired by a rival team.

After the parenthesis of love unhappy with the poor Mina, Tommy still managed to build a great career and became famous after he developed three Superlanci with deadly effect. Here are three superlanci the first series. In Japanese they are called makyū or by -league ball. In order: No. 1 Superlancio (pictured right). The path heads straight to intimidate the batsman, then the effect causes the bouncing bat and turns into a comfortable rolling.


Superlancio number 2 (right). The so-called invisible launch exploiting the vacuum and dust the area to blend in and disappear, deceiving the batter sees the ball disappear as if by magic. Finally Superlancio number 3. it is a launch under- slow to almost zero height, which leverages its driving force and pressure of the air flow (!) to dodge the bat around and force your opponent to swing .

But the effort to run them day to day wear out the body of Tommy, often undermining his psychic integrity. Until we reach the bitter epilogue, on the one hand, the reward with a big win (against the Dragons in Nagoya coached by his father), the achievement of perfect game. But the other will suffer a serious injury that will cause the detachment of the flexor of the left arm. The career Tommy then concludes with the Giants so much as an epic drama. Small brackets technique: perfect game, or perfect game, is the term used to mean an exceptional performance of a pitcher. This is a complete game of at least 9 innings , conducted by a single pitcher without giving a basis for ball and beat good, and without him or his companions are inconsistent field. In practice, none of the batters opponents must reach first base. In more than a century until now there have been only 16 perfect games (17 with that of Tommy ...).

The manga ends well. From here begins the second series, called "Shin , what with the manga has nothing to do but which has retained some original ideas in order to still be digested by most fans.
Question: was there really need to stretch the story at a distance of no less than seven years since the first version? Among other things, choosing a period (late seventies) in which gender supokon had embarked on hopelessly its decline? Kawasaki it seems that the same was not very well. For him, the adventure sports Tommy was beautiful and complete. However he was persuaded by an enthusiastic Kajiwara to take up the pencil. The story begins. Well five years have passed since Tommy disappeared from circulation and calm reigns on the stage, the typical calm before the storm. Meanwhile, the Giants are finished bottom of the standings, Charlie / Chuta was hired full time in the company of his father, while Alexander / Mitsuru, lost interest in baseball after the disappearance of his friend / rival, withdrew and he married Giuseppe / Akiko, the sister of Tommy. Seriously injured in the accident, Tommy returns to the roots and begin to rehabilitate the arm natural right to its superb cast. Has grown and now has lost the appearance of the boy. Now we see more adults drawn with lines and flowing hair that gives him an almost wild. Also, thanks to the training targeted the giant American Thunder Bill (name kept this in both versions!) Who suffered his own accident, his right arm becomes ever more hardened and deadly. Tommy is developing a new type of slip ("sliding screw spin" in Italian cardboard "slide screw") that gives new hope to come back and play and play other roles in addition to the pitcher.

Several grievances of the public affection for manga arrived at this point. Steps for launches and trajectories amazing magic, but how is it that Tommy can appeal so strongly to the club despite having one arm out of? In the manga Tommy suffers the detachment of the extensor muscles of the arm that would prevent him from challenging anything for the rest of his days. In fact, the manga ended with that episode. While the carton is justified simply as a shoulder injury in order for him to continue his adventures and the criticism rained down from all sides. Continue. The dispute with her father becomes increasingly incurable, but despite everything Tommy manages to bring the Giants to victory in the league. The final day of Arthur dies, freeing up forever son by his obsession (though in the manga does not die at all!), Giuseppe and her sister, who had married his rival Alexander Mitchell, gives birth to a child. Tommy embarks for the U.S. to change your life and maybe take another adventure sports. End of the second set. A third was not felt the need to own ...

Parody
hard to find another series that can boast more parodies of " Kyojin no Hoshi." The often dramatic vision of society, the strong personality of each character, not to mention the amazing changes in their sport are too attractive aspects of a packet to avoid the risk of being parodied in other manga and anime. In particular, "Ore wa ima moretsu ni shite iru Kando", the typical sentence tearful Tommy (roughly speaking, "I feel terribly moved ! " or " Right now I'm burning with emotion "), perhaps delivered as the background stands the Hinomaru (the red sun), the symbol and pride of the archipelago of the rising sun. Very ironic that he saw the image Arthur in his classic pose while pointing to the child the star of the Giants, wearing ... the striped uniform of the Hanshin Tigers ! Genuine blasphemy (a bit 'like Totti wore the shirt of Lazio)!

At times, as they say. After all, as I wrote a few lines ago, people in Japan called Hoshi it does exist, even if the rule of probability, not be easy to find a Hoshi she can become a successful professional among the millions of Japanese who play baseball. The curious incident dates back a few years ago. In 2004, during the drafts professionals, their sixth round of the Giant chose Tokyo guess' who? Yes! A Takanori Hoshi boy from the Tōhoku Dai Gakuin, who became the first in the flesh Hoshi to wear the official jersey of the Giants (with the number 58). But for tradition and for all the fans did not belong to this record at all, given that the order had arrived Takanori only as a third Hoshi, after Arthur / Ittetsu (before the Second World War) and Tommy / Hyūma the late sixties.

Among other things, whenever there is the box to beat the jolly fellow of the Tokyo Dome employee custom jingle (the one in which America plays the background music, the piece of music on the organ) firing at full blast notes "Yuke Yuke Hyūma "(" Go, go Hyūma! "), The song vaguely Japanese martial this LP era and I put the image on the right. I wonder how you will feel excited Takanori the poor. And luckily it was not a pitcher! About this sign: someone will certainly recognized as one hears frequently during the cartoon.



Rating: Not
was missing in Japan this manga was considered a textbook for a historical understanding of the evolution of Japanese society by the tragedies veteran of World War II. Sportingly talking the story travels on two separate tracks: one is the setting for the professional league baseball, with its real performers who interact with fictional characters. Particular that will be taken up later also Dokaben / Mr.Baseball. On the other athletes to the limits of the absurd hyperbole. The characters and their psychology is more than enough to support the plot. I do not pronounce on the Italian version. Estimation and curriculum claim a 10, but you can not: Grade 8 .
