Toua Tokuchi, a master of gambling and mind games, holds the remarkable record of 499 wins and zero losses in "One Outs," a simplified form of baseball that consists of only a batter and a pitcher. Visiting Okinawa, Tokuchi's hometown, is Hiromichi Kojima, the star batter of the Saikyou Saitama Lycaons, the weakest team in the Japanese baseball league. Dreaming of leading the Lycaons to winning the championship, and in dire need of a replacement for their injured pitcher during a training camp, Kojima involves himself in a game of One Outs, only to lose to a normal fastball from the seemingly invincible Tokuchi. Mesmerized by his prowess, Kojima recruits Tokuchi to the team after narrowly avoiding defeat in a rematch, believing he might just be their key to victory. However, the greedy owner of the Lycaons refuses to give him a decent salary, leading Tokuchi to suggest an unusual contract: every out he pitches will gain him five million yen, but every run he gives up will lose him fifty million yen. With his fate now tied to that of the team, Tokuchi's fight to bring the Lycaons to victory becomes yet another gamble—the very thing that he does best.

Just what is this house, and what dark secrets does it hold?

I was transmigrated into a a dark and melodramatic BL novel. Moreover, I became the villainess who was madly in love with the obsessive male lead, the boss of Baekcheon, and died in the first encounter with the main characters! I thought about changing their love story, which ended with the death of my favourite schemer, into a happy ending! "Let's go together, to my hell." What? Did my favourite character just kidnap me? "I like you,”' “but this is too much.” To ensure that the story unfolded just like it did the novel, I tried to seduce my favourite character just enough that he would hesitate to kill me. "Why do you like me?" But something feels off. "Just try running away. That’s if you can, Princess." "I’ve got my eyes on you right now, I'll go crazy if you do." The male lead's boyfriend has started obsessing over me. "Please, Yeonbyeol..." "Don’t abandon me..." So dangerous and dizzying, it's impossible to escape!

The time is the end of the century, the seas have dried up and the earth has been torn apart, a man in a leather jacket confronts the bad guys that hurts the weak and a loud shout overlaps as he brilliantly defeats the enemy.

In Fallen Words, Yoshihiro Tatsumi takes up the oral tradition of rakugo and breathes new life into it by shifting the format from spoken word to manga. Each of the eight stories in the collection is lifted from the Edo-era Japanese storytelling form. As Tatsumi notes in the afterword, the world of rakugo, filled with mystery, emotion, revenge, hope, and, of course, love, overlaps perfectly with the world of Gekiga that he has spent the better part of his life developing. These slice-of-life stories resonate with modern readers thanks to their comedic elements and familiarity with human idiosyncrasies. In one, a father finds his son too bookish and arranges for two workers to take the young man to a brothel on the pretext of visiting a new shrine. In another particularly beloved rakugo tale, a married man falls in love with a prostitute. When his wife finds out, she is enraged and sets a curse on the other woman. The prostitute responds by cursing the wife, and the two escalate in a spiral of voodoo doll cursing. Soon both are dead, but even death can’t extinguish their jealousy. Tatsumi’s love of wordplay shines through in the telling of these whimsical stories, and yet he still offers timeless insight into human nature.
