📖 SYNOPSIS
Set in 1925 during the Taisho era, "Taisho Baseball Girls" follows 14-year-old Akiko and her friend Koume as they embark on an unconventional journey. Inspired by a baseball player's dismissive comment about women's roles, Akiko decides to form a baseball team. This decision is met with significant resistance, as baseball is largely unknown and considered a male activity. The girls face numerous hurdles, including securing team members, gaining parental permission, and mastering the intricacies of the sport. The anime explores themes of gender roles, societal expectations, and the challenges of pursuing one's passions in a time when even running was deemed inappropriate for women. Their story highlights their determination to challenge the status quo and prove their capabilities.
