In a forgotten corner of Japan, where weeds cover the baseball field and the school gave up on sports long ago, one boy refuses to let go of his dream.



Thirteen-year-old Haruto Saito is a baseball prodigy born in the wrong place. Gifted as both pitcher and batter, his talent burns bright—but in a rural middle school with no team, no coach, and no one who believes, it’s like screaming into the void. Except… one person still listens.

Sōta Nakamura, his quiet best friend, would rather read math books than swing a bat. But when Haruto asks, he picks up a catcher’s mitt—not out of love for the game, but for the friendship they share. Together, they form a club from scratch: no equipment, no strategy, just raw heart and late-night dreams.

As they gather misfit teammates and find unexpected support in their stern math teacher—once a forgotten player himself—the boys discover that baseball isn’t just about winning championships. It’s about building something where nothing existed before. It’s about scraped knees, quiet encouragements, shared bentos, and the girl who stitches their uniforms by hand.

But the road to glory isn’t smooth. Injuries, failures, heartbreaks—and the haunting knowledge that talent might not be enough—test every ounce of their resolve. Because no one expects legends to be born in countryside classrooms.

Will their dream reach Koshien—or will they remain the team no one remembers?
A story of friendship, failure, and the field that held their youth.
⚾ The dirt may forget their footprints… but the sky never will.

Thank you for accompanying me on this inaugural journey of Baseball:No Diamond For The Forgotten. As this first novel served primarily as my practice, I recognize that certain elements—its structure, style, and exposition—did not always meet the clarity and depth I strove to achieve.


Moving forward, I will embark upon a new work set within the same spirit of youthful ambition and the trials of the baseball diamond. In that upcoming series, I will employ a more polished narrative voice, refined character development, and a consistent stylistic framework to ensure a richer and more immersive reading experience.


I am deeply grateful for your support and patience. Your encouragement has inspired me to refine my craft, and I look forward to sharing my next novel with you all. Until then, thank you for reading, and I hope to see you again on the pages of our next story.
