5. Kominato Haruichi

OMG YES BABY BOI HARUICHI LITERALLY WHO DOESNT LIKE HIM literally he's such a sweetheart and so adorable like i just wanna give him a forehead kiss (srsly an impossible dream i doubt that even after he cuts his hair he'd ever let anyone see his forehead NDKNSJS)

4. Yuki Tetsuya

look at this man. LOOK AT HIM. HE IS SO GORGEOUS AND HE GIVES OFF SUCH AN AURA OF MATURITY HE IS SUCH A MAN AND IM LIVING FOR IT

also i'd just like to point out that all the main captains seem to have that close cropped black hair and really nice muscles. like is that a qualification to be the captain of the main character team??? idk bc if so lemme find myself a CAPTAIN

3. Miyuki Kazuya

yup super cool he wears glasses and gets all the girls ooo yay

BFKSNDJ KIDDING MIYUKI KAZUYA IS A MARVEL TO BEHOLD (not looking at his horrendous fashion sense). literally he may be lowkey an asshole but he's an asshole done RIGHT. literally he's still so respectful and supportive when he needs to be and ofc he's incredibly attractive. good pick mara <3

2. Todoroki Raichi

MY LITTLE GREMLIN EEEEE (me talking like he's not 7.5 inches taller than me-) honestly i'm so in love with raichi and just LOOK AT HIM. THOSE FERAL EYES AND THAT LITTLE FANG SMILE AND HIS SCARRRRRRR HIS SCAR GUYS HIS SCAR IM LIVING FOR THE SCAR

just look at this pure masterpiece of a good boy. yk he has literally no thoughts ever besides 'i hungry' and 'KAHAHA HIT BALL' and that is okay!!! i love him and his empty head <3 i just wanna kiss his little scar and play with his messy hair and he has such a cute laugh i can literally hear it rn if you don't like raichi don't talk to me ever pls

time for honorable mentions!!!

Takigawa Chris Yu (ie Chris-senpai)

okie so most of you know what he looks like with his hair gelled back but GUYS. CHRIS WITH HIS HAIR DOWN GOES SO CRAZY. LIKE IF HE WORE IT LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME HE WOULD BE TOP FIVE BUT SRSLY I LOVE CHRIS ALSO HE IS RIPPED SO HOT his hair is so LUSCIOUS LOOKING and my heart literally zoomed into space when his eyes went from dead to shiny again

Sanada Shunpei

okie so i'm actually in pain that i only had two honorable mention spots and i couldn't add isashiki or sawamura or tojo or kanemaru or itsuki like i'm HURTING GUYS but i had to give it to sanada he's just so beautiful. like i love his baby mode like above but his scary mode when he's pitching also just makes my eyes so happy it's so intense and i'm living for it

okie here it is

number one~

can i get a drumroll pls???

1. Kuramochi Youichi

is anyone surprised??? i mean i made him my profile picture and everything... ALSO MARA PRETTIEST SIDE PROFILE RIGHT HERE ITS SO GOOD

LOOK HOW PURE AND HAPPY HE IS WITH RYOSUKE LIKE HE ACTS ALL TOUGH BUT HE IS REALLY JUST A BIG BABY also the fact he noticed ryosuke's injury before anyone else just shows how much he cares about his friends  and how close they were i-

also he has this little habit where he always adjusts his helmet before he goes up to bat and it's just such a cute little quirk idk he always looks so serious when he does it too

ALSO LOOK LOOK LOOK HES SLEEPING JUST THE WAY HES HOLDING ONTO THE PILLOW IS SO CUTE ALSO HE SLEEPS ON HIS STOMACH IDK CUTE DETAILS

jeez and with his dumb little peace sign all dirty from sliding home this man is SO FAST like srsly it's the legs for me-

he also has no brain it's like empty space up there just whoosh but again that's okay i love him anyways

AND LOOK AT HIS DUMB LITTLE HAT SULKING AND SQUATTING LIKE A GREMLIN HGNNNNN

also he's so supportive and brotherly, especially toward sawamura like yes he likes to rough house and yes he participated in gang like activity before he went to high school but he's such a good guy at heart. all he ever wants to do is support this friends and make sure they're happy and when he can't he feels so frustrated and inferior like babes you can't solve everyone's problems i swear you're too perfect-

also him intense is 😳😳😳

okie last one just of him being so attractive it's hard for me to breathe anyways- yes ik i didn't include his famous ab picture if you guys are curious feel free to look it up just know my man is  r i p p e d 🤩 anyways i love him so much especially his little laugh i need it to be my ringtone 😔 i really just want a little kith from him that's all guys that's all 🥺👉👈 also i ordered myself a kuramochi plushie bc life is hard and i deserve a reward for being in school during a pandemic :)
