Baseball Manga Major Gets New Final Original Video Anime
posted on by Egan Loo
This year's 48th issue of OVA volume will be bundled with the first new special compiled book volume (tankōbon) of the manga.
The OVA project will adapt the thus-far-unanimated World Series arc and the story's illusive final matchup, while the new book will let fans see the last pitch in the manga. The project promises the return of the "Golden Battery" in America.
The original manga ended in July of 2010 after a 16-year run. The story follows Gorō, the son of a major league batter who dreams of making it big himself. The manga began in the magazine in late 1994.
The manga shipped last December with a special OVA.
A compiled book volume of BUYUDEN, the boxing manga that Mitsuda launched this past March, will also ship in the middle of this December.
