Aoi Aikawa has never been able to sit still. Born and raised in rural Chiba, the restless fifteen-year-old splits his life between two passions: baseball, where his strange left-handed moving fastball leaves coaches baffled, and football, where his natural instincts make him a brilliant offensive midfielder. But despite his talents, Aoi feels stuck — too raw in baseball to stand out, too quiet to speak his dreams aloud, too afraid to imagine a future beyond the narrow fields he's grown up on.
Everything changes when a scout from Kose High School, a once-famous baseball powerhouse desperate to rise again, appears at his middle school with an unexpected invitation. Suddenly Aoi is caught between two worlds: the teammates he loves and the new opportunity waiting for him; the comfort of home and the pull of a bigger dream; the sport he wants to pursue professionally and the one that helps him breathe when life feels too heavy.
As he navigates pressure, guilt, excitement, and self-doubt, Aoi must choose the path he'll chase into high school. But the choice won't just shape his future — it will test his loyalty, challenge his limits, and force him to discover who he wants to become.
Because dreams don't wait.
