"Boukyaku Battery" (忘却バッテリー) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eko Mikawa. It follows a once-legendary baseball battery—Haruka Kiyomine, a talented pitcher, and Kei Kaname, a genius catcher—who had dominated middle school baseball but were separated due to an accident that caused Kaname to lose his baseball memories. Now in high school, they reunite at a school where former baseball prodigies, who had given up the sport, gather. Together, they aim to rediscover their passion for baseball and build a new team.
The Boukyaku Battery anime, adapted from Eco Mikawa’s manga, is set to premiere on April 9, 2024, with animation produced by MAPPA. The series follows a once-unstoppable baseball duo—pitcher Haruka Kiyomine and catcher Kei Kaname—who unexpectedly enroll in a lesser-known high school after Kaname loses his memory. There, they reunite with other talented players who had previously quit baseball after being defeated by them.
The anime's opening theme song is "Lilac" by Mrs. GREEN APPLE, while the ending theme song is "Wasurena Uta"by Macaroni Empitsu. The series is directed by Makoto Nakazono (Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen episode director), with Michiko Yokote (Naruto, Gintama) handling the series composition
