Oblivion Battery

Oblivion Battery follows Haruka Kiyomine, a star pitcher whose partner Kei Kaname suddenly wakes up with amnesia just as their high school dreams take off. Once a flawless duo, they must rebuild their game with a new team of rival classmates at a low tier school. Kei's memory gap tests trust and commitment, while Haruka learns to adapt and lead from the mound with a teammate who can't recall past signals. The duo faces competing squads, stubborn egos, and the chaos of starting over, but humor and heart keep the players and fans invested. No spoilers about where the season heads next.
