About the series
In the late 2000s, Tonkam published Cross Game, a 17-issue manga series that blends the rhythms of baseball with the quieter drama of everyday life. Best known for the work of creator Mitsuru Adachi, the series follows a young pitcher and the people around him, weaving themes of love, loss, and ambition into its sports narrative. Its understated storytelling and emotional depth have made it a beloved entry in the slice-of-life sports genre.
