Mayumura, Ken
Summary
Mayumura, Ken was introduced in the second season when Kaido’s recruiter, seeking retribution for Goro’s rejection of Kaido Unified during a middle school matchup against East Mifune, ordered him to beat Goro. This incident established Goro as his instant rival, though Mayumura secretly admires Goro’s confidence and straightforward nature. He maintains a direct, to-the-point demeanor that often appears cold, projecting an image of complete emotional control even against seasoned veterans. While his habit of sitting in a bathroom stall listening to music is perceived by others as a mental preparation ritual, it actually serves to manage his anxiety and help him focus. His ultimate ambition is to secure every conceivable individual honor in Japanese baseball before advancing to the Majors.
