"Cross Game" is one of Adachi's best works.
The first volume of manga is one of the very best I've read among all the manga I've read. Adachi does an amazing job of building up the relationship between Koh and Wakaba, showing little details that make you sure they are right for each other, even at a young age. He does an even better job of showing just how jealous Aoba is of all the time Wakaba spends with Koh. Then tragedy strikes.
Adachi's portrayal of all the different reactions from family, friends, and acquaintances is spot-on accurate.
The interplay between the characters often leaves you guessing ...
