ドカベン ドリームトーナメント編 [Dokaben Dream Tournament]

From 2012 to 2018, Shinji Mizushima returned to his legendary baseball saga Dokaben for this Akita Shoten series, which pitted the best players from the original manga's decades-long run in an ultimate, high-stakes tournament. The Dream Tournament arc served as a grand, celebratory capstone for the beloved franchise, allowing fans to see iconic characters clash in fresh, dream-matchups. Though a direct continuation, it stands on its own as a self-contained, all-star battle royale that showcases Mizushima's enduring love for the sport and his characters.
