The series is based on the “legend” of the famous former professional baseball manager and player Hiromitsu Ochiai.
The 16th issue of Kodansha’s Morning magazine revealed on Thursday that Kawa (Shōwa no Gurazeni) and Satoshi Miyakawa (Space Battleship Tiramisu) will launch a new series Ochiai Hiromitsu no Oreryū tensei (Hiromitsu Ochiai’s Self-Reincarnation) in the 17th issue on March 28.
Miyakawa and Gotō launched the manga in Morning in January 2021 as part of a collaboration between the magazine and DC Comics.
Kawa launched Shōwa no Gurazeni, Kawa’s spinoff manga of Yūji Moritaka and Keiji Adachi’s Gurazeni: Dai League-hen (Gurazeni Big League Arc) manga, in October 2021.
