Synopsis
1990s Kitaro mini-movie remake of 1968 baseball story, offering a very different take on the original.
Like the other 1990s Kitaro mini-movies, this is a remake of a story that’s already been done in the anime, but like every Kitaro remake this is a very different take on the story. In this case it’s a remake of the baseball story that was featured in the very first episode of the original series from 1968. (Source: TSHS)
