Character Introductions (DLC)
Homura Banto
Homura Banto
The first ever mascot that resulted from a bug in a classic console baseball game.
Though corrected for the US release, Japan's Bases Loaded is famous even now for a bug which allowed home runs to be hit with a bunt, hence Homura's name.
Homura, is a hot-headed guy with an intent dislike for Clarice and calm discord. He much prefers action to thought, hence him joining the fray armed only with a baseball bat!
His character design is courtesy of none other than the legendary Kenichi Sonoda! (Suchie Pai, Riding Bean, Gunsmith Cats).

Original Game
Bases Loaded (1987)
The first in a series of baseball games where a famous bug in the Japanese version allowed players to bunt for a homerun!
The realistic viewpoint and mechanics meant the first game was a homerun, with over a million copies sold in Japan alone!
Called "Moero!! Pro Yakyuu" or "Moepuro" in Japan.
