About Oblivion Battery

Meet Oblivion Battery (忘却バッテリー (TV)), a comedy and sports anime by MAPPA (2024). Here is the premise in a nutshell. At its core: Iron-armed pitcher, Haruka Kiyomine, and the shrewd catcher, Kei Kaname, AKA the "Skilled General," were considered to be an unrivaled, monstrous battery duo in the middle-school baseball world. They were both scouted by various powerhouse high schools across the nation, but somehow, they both ended up at Tokyo Municipal Kotesashi High School, which wasn't known for baseball at all.

Soon after, on top of that, other star players who had lost to that duo in the past and completely strayed from baseball coincidentally also enrolled at that school, and… Their meeting sets everything into motion once again. Their high school baseball story kicks off now!

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Yuuki Kaji as Tarou Yamada and Mamoru Miyano as Kei Kaname. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. The run is 12 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
