>>157251808The bracket if someone wants in photo form
>>157251816i really dont like how some teams get a first round-bye because of the uneven number of teams
>>157251808Anyone got a link I can readily open in MPV for easy screenshots?
>>157251808Where di you find that guys google doc? I had last years and couldnt find where he'd have put this years
>>157251826I feel they should put 64 teams somehow lol
Both work take screnshot from Browser as far I know
>>157251826don't the byes reward good academic standing though? at least it's a good incentive. don't want schools that only focus on sports.
>>157251845He posts on Xitter but is a low count privated account
>>157251808>>157251826Thank you; I was looking forward to this thread.
>>157251858wew
>>157251840i was able to do it last year but for the life of me i cant remember how>>157251855no it's just a draw, nothing to do with academics
I'm interested but don't really know what team I should root for
>>157251874here is a summary for each teamSouth Hokkaido: Sapporo Nichidai (札幌日大) is a private school from South Hokkaido. This is only the schools' 3rd ever Koshien appearance, with their other two coming in spring 2002 and summer 2024 respectively. They have never won a game at Kohsien, losing in the first round both times previously. Media ranking: CMiyagi: Sendai Ikuei (仙台育英) is a private school from Miyagi Prefecture. It is the premier baseball school in Miyagi and one of the strongest programs in Japan. Sendai Ikuei has made 57 Koshien appearances, by far the most of any school in Miyagi, and among the highest totals in Japan. They finally managed to win their first title in Summer 2022 after coming close many times before.Media ranking: A
Oh yea people make a "Asia" Koshien on southeast Asia now lol
The red team has a jeet?
>>157251882gotta root for the underdogs then
>>157251893they were just there to throw out the ceremonial first pitch
>>157251882Speaking in power ranking, here is a top 20 someone had postedHere it is in fullhttps://x.com/i/status/2083403359302894011
Bro they have these skinny ass high schoolers throwing 90mph? What the fuck.
>>157251869>i was able to do it last year but for the life of me i cant remember howdamn, there's already some great shots i missed. there's no rewind function in the web player either so it's doubly fucked and i doubt there's gonna be VODs of this right?
>>157251899translation? maybe just of top 5?
>>157251904Most players throw 88+ nowadays but japonese baseball is known for focus in curve over speed
>>157251914my link has rewind
>>157251914there will be a VOD of every game>>157251899>>157251920this is just the most visited schools on that specific website (but it is mostly the favourites)yokohamaariakesendai ikueichiben wakayamariseisha
Ikueibros thought that was gone
>>157251933It updated nowTop 3 is Yokohama, Sendai Ikuei (playing now) Hanamaki Higashi (Ohtani HomeSchool)Yokohama is the most favorite right now
>>157251943I plan to cheer for Hanamaki Higashi.
>>157251940Ikuei will always remind me about that walkout vs a favorite Osaka ToinIn fact, they had put it in this year promohttps://youtu.be/2VkTy7AkpVw
>>157251808Holy fuck I remember see these threads last year. Time is going too fast.
I got it my niggas.mpv "https://media00.vk-live.asahi.co.jp/ch00s/live-qvbr.m3u8" werks on my machine.Thank you Japan for having better streams than my paid MLB service.
i think the ikuei manager is cute
>>157251973Oh. She's a real looker
>>157251955this is my first time watching
>>157251970We are doing it for the 10th year by way
>>157251973Dayum
nice play
>>157251972based, it works for me too>>157251980she will cuter if she cries
>>157251973She looks like a menhera imoBut also reminds me of Megan Fox
>>157251973damn so the ペットなマネージャー genre is based in reality................................
In terms of the cheerleaders' level, Sendai Ikuei is the clear winner.
>>157251972Bruh maneged to get directly from Asahi Newspaper servers
damn I thought he beat that out
>>157252025i thought he did too
>>157252025>>157252029There has video review from this year by the waySimilar way as NPB had until last year
finally the first fucking hit
>>157252032Hmm, the Sapporo Nichidai cheerleaders keep their underarms covered.
>>157252038is it the same as mlb? I don't watch japanese baseball, I'm working from home rn lol. Ikuei on the board!! got greedy tho.
>>157252040And first run
So it's not just a Yamamoto thing, it's not just an Orix Buffalo thing, but even in high school they develop that kind of windup.>>157252038Now that they have DH this year, all they need is pitch clock, ABS, 3 batter rule and Manfred runners prior to elimination games...
>>157252046Kinda offDifference is that the replay is done in stadium rather than a central place
first run of koshien
>>157252051They actually have extra inning runners 5 years before MLBIn Japan is known as T I E B R E A K
>>157252052mlb used to do that too, umps on the field would review the calls.
Elimination baseball really is the hypest shit. Almost a shame you need such a lengthy regular season to get there, almost.Also, they got beer girls in the stands at high school games?
>>157252065>Also, they got beer girls in the stands at high school games?yes, someone went to koshien last year and made a post about it lol
Sapporo bros, it's fucking over.
>happy life!
Oh shit, we're back
>>157252065>>157252075Yea like leaf anon postedBut there has a catch, they sell only on outfield seatsNo beer sales are done infield seats
>>157252094H A P P Y L I F E H A P P Y H O M E
>>157252106are we?
>>157252110have you been there for the tourney before?
I'm rooting for 4 teams this year: The 2 Hokkaido teams, because north Japan needs more love. Totori juhoku, cause there the smallest prefecture by teams, only 21And Hachioji Jissem from west Tokyo because it's there first time.
>>157252117gonna be stuck in my head all damn day kek
Fucking high school games get better pitchcast and pitch sequencing displays without having to go and look it up ourselves than we do, what the hell.
>>157252118I meant Koshien. Didn't realize it was today.
>>157252044waki is important
based hit and run chads
Skipper you gotta get this kid out of there, he's getting too much hard contact.
>>157252123It has been a meme of koshien threads since day 1 lolSo much that when we play on 4CC tournaments it's one of our players lol
>>157252124Japan baseball telecast prefer show pitch graphics this way rather than on screenI think south Korea too with KBO, even now KBO is full ABS
>>157252141this is kino bros, can't believe I've been missing out
>>157252140they might only have one good pitcher, so they may leave him in for the whole game.
As ever I hope Toin loses
I like this smooth piano music
>>157252148>>157252154Bro, is it okay if I post a link to the 5chan thread dedicated to supporting cheerleaders?Of course, I have absolutely no improper intentions; I just want to cheer on these cheerleaders who are working hard in a wholesome way. Please, you have to believe me.Naturally, if it turns out to be really unpopular, I won't post the link again—so please.
>>157252153I miss when they did interview from stands with some school membersBut they do it only from quarterfinals and prefer do this letter thing since covidI heared NHK still does the interviews but I only watch the semis and finals there due NHK World Premium showing then
>>157252162I swear you tried this last time too
>>157252157i got good news for you friend, they didn't make it this year. >>157252162you can post it bro, it's no big deal
>>157252171>>157252173The duality of man
>>157252158>>157252153They're reading letters I believe, I wasn't really following but it's things like "2 years ago I wouldn't have dared to dream for our school to be at Koshien", kind of emotional.
is this the only game on rn?
>>157252153Wait this is your first Koshien?>>157252173Kwab. Toin BTFO
>>157252180Brazil bro, please.
>>157252183YeaAll games are played on same stadium, this stadium was litteraly built for it
>>157252183YeahSchedule: https://koshien.hanshin.co.jp/highschool/summer2026/schedule.html
>>157252186yes
>no ABGDid the favelas finally get to him?
>>157252186This year they haven't reached even semis.lmaoHow they maneged to win spring? Lmao
>>157252198got killed by drug traffickers after they overheard him calling football, 'soccer' (hes the brazilian in this thread just not using the tripcode)
>>157252190Idk broI don't want risk get thread ban hammered or invaded by g00000ners
Sapporochads cookin rn
No quality start for Ikuei.
>>157252211Okay, I'll drop it. Sorry.
>>157252194Enjoy! Glad to have you here. I get you though. I wasn't around for the first few years and had the same missing out feeling.
>>157252198>>157252208Too lazy to put it rn lol maybe if other hue comes inBy the way, if threads stops showing up be free to do a new thread, as long you guys don't forger about the OP links lol
>>157252227thank, gonna try to catch games when I can. I'm off the rest of the week so idk if I'll be awake this late.
crazy they don't cover their mouths when they relay instructionsalso OOBLETIGER
>>157252204>How they maneged to win spring? LmaoCause every team was just fucking spilling their spaghetti whenever they got close to beating them. Was super frustrating in spring kek.
Let's go Sapporo. Don't fuck this up
>>157252245Classic TOINWINSLOL
>swinging at a pitch that hit your foot>with the bases loadedbig oof
>>157252244Most of.comms is done with manwger doing weird funny signals
sapporobros... are we back?
oobletiger avoided thanks to a hpbsapporochads...
bruh
>>157252274Yea ikuei pitchers have some control issuesKnew that would hit them sooner or later
need a png of that umpie logo
>>157252279and this happened right before but the batter swung
>>157252284look at the umpie, in complete control of the situation.
>>157252280An it is the Koyaren logo, there has a PNG of it with the flag on wikipediahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_High_School_Baseball_Federation
>>157252264It's not even hard to decode when he's signalling to bunt or to hit. It's like they don't respect other schools to try and read lips or steal signs.But I guess I get it at this level, they're just kids after all at the end of the day. You want to develop their actual ball skills (and personal skills) as opposed to pro ball win no matter what.
brutal squeeze attempt kek
sapporo will punish ikuei for that dumbass squeeze tempt
Okay you definitely don't bring him out next inning. Not after hits like that. He already gave you the quality start.
Sapporo doing soccer chants lol
>>157252308that's actually a really old ragtime song lol, at least the melody is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKlcTG8GbB8
>>157252301Ah yea YakazaIt reminds me of Karin no Mound
How deep is the Ikuei bullpen?Also do they have the same 2 disengagement limit per PA as MLB?
>>157252311I know about the entertainers gran turismo version is comfy https://youtu.be/WSu8IyQOO0sBut they were doing the Ooooooo soccer chant
>>157252317No rule as far I remember
>>157252317actually, the kid on the mound is their ace. They started with a weaker pitcher and brought in the ace later. It’s probably because of pitch count rules.
>>157252287very nice
Brazilian anon, why do you only like J-Ball and not MLB. You're not WEEB are you?
>>157252340Good luck pepoumpThe Japanese are mad at you
>>157252350We're watching Japanese High School baseball. Aren't we all a little weeb?
>>157252350I watch MLB sometimes and follow closely news (lockout soon oof)But in most games, the lack of fan support is dreadful, I am used with soccer-type cheering so I feel more comfortable watching Asian Baseball overall due itIs not much a thing, japan type of thing since KBO and Taiwan has great fan atmospheres too
>>157252370This also lol4chan was a site based of a Japanese website firstly focused in anime also lol
>>157252222Post it in this thread when the when the new thread gets created best of both worlds.
>all these chad nip highschoolers having unlimited access to underage nip pussyI'm so fucking jealous holy shit, it's not fair
>>157252395I am going do Pinochet in.you anonI heared pacific waters are rater hot
>>157252401>in.you>heared>pacific waters are rather hotall of this post is just a huge ragebait
>>157252395i tried to call you peruAN* but apparently that word got added to the filters
They should steal more in Koshien desu. Feel like those overthrows would be somewhat common.
lets go sapporo score some fackin runs!!
>>157252419hit and runs are very common, but yeah, you dont see as much stealing as you'd think
>>157252395El ChileANO
>>157252419Most catchers tend to be strong arms due some of them playing pitching before HSSo it's rather risky move
it might be over...
AIIEEEEE
It might be Sappover
who's this mope?
>>157252442In koshien is never over until is overIkuei had won vs a heavy favorite 2-0 down in bot 9 with 2 outs
It's so over for Sapporo bros. A shame, they have the better supporters. They got loud for their team.
Is it just me or are there alot of 2nd years on both these teams?
100 pitches, don't they have a limit in Koshien now?
>>157252466500 pitches per week
I'm rooting for Ikuei because of the qt manager
>>157252386No, this place is primarily run by two people—"Brazil-bro" and "Canada-bro"—so getting permission from both of them is absolutely essential. I won't post the link, though...【2026】チアガール・女子高生に萌える夏
Yeah they should've pulled him at 100 if not sooner like I suggested.
baka, I had the hat brim color wrong before
>>157252465Nowadays there has great 2nd year players
>>157252489They have a all black version for spring/fall too
>>157252484Thank you>>157252472>>157252466When was this added?
>>157252495since 2020they were really destroying kids arms before then (its not that strict now t bh)
>>157252495Few years ago, I think was 2018 or 2019
>>157251955Kek this promo is mostly just them crying after losing
>>157252504This is what happened before
Sapporobros, here's their moment
come ooooonnn sapporo
>>157252521>1398 pitchesuhhhhhhh
>>157252510The theme song this year talks about the agony of losing "why i am shedding those tears for?">>157252507, this why the promo is mostly focused on it
Potential last out of the game.(It's Sapporover)
>>157252533Ah sht I quoted by accident
AAAAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE FOUL BALL
F Sapporo
>>157252541
what a slide
Singing of the school song
gg
thats the first day done, tomorrow there will be 2 games.3am eastern time/midnight pacific Tochiku (東筑) - Kamimura Gakuen (神村学園)5:30am eastern time/2:30am pacificSeirei Christopher (聖隷クリストファー ) - Sano Nichidai (佐野日大)
You can still see the Sendai Ikuei cheerleaders
Their manager is why the team tries so hard.
>>157252567Oh yea DESU VULT plays tomorrowVI VA CHRISTOPHER VIVA VIVA CHRISTOPHER
The losing team tearfully takes home soil from Koshien as a memento
>>157252594tears me up every time
>>157252605yes
>>157252122Only 1 Hokkaido team left. Come on Shirakaba Gakuen. The north is counting on you.
Who are the favorites?
>>157252650Yokohama and Sendai Ikuei for sureRiseisha, Chiben maybe can surprise
There was definite bias.They barely showed Nichidai's supporters besides the boys in pink (though they earned it, they made it sound like it was their home stadium). Now we'll never see them again.
