Eijirou Kashiwaba

Recommended by Coach Nishio, this ruthless substitute coach brings a Spartan-style discipline to the baseball team. Known for his brutal methods, he immediately terminates Minami’s management role and uses physical intimidation to punish players like Tatsuya and Nishimura for any lack of effort. While his intense training forces the squad to work harder, his harshness strips away the joy of the sport, driving several members to quit. His aggression stems from a deep-seated grudge against the Meisei baseball program.
