嵐 Arashi
Released in April 2014, this is their 43rd single. This song was used as a theme song for a drama, "弱くても勝てます～青志先生とぺっぽこ高校球児の野望, Yowakutemo Katemasu~Aoshi sensei to heppoko koukou kyuuji no yabou~" (that's a long title!), starred by Kazunari Ninomiya.
The drama was about a high school students who try to participate in the High School Baseball Championship*. 高校球児 (koukou kyuuji) means high school students who belong to school baseball team. Nino (Kazunari Ninomiya, a member of Arashi) played as a teacher and the graduate of this high school of high scholastic standing.
This high school baseball championship has a long history and has been a very popular summer event. Many professional baseball players, namely, Hideki Matsui, Ichiro, Masahiro Tanaka proved their talents and made a legend in these games.
The preliminary games of the tournament has already begun in each prefecture. I wonder which school will win this summer.

*The National High School Baseball Championship (全国高等学校野球選手権大会 zenkoku kōtō gakkō yakyū senshuken taikai) of Japan, commonly known as "Summer Kōshien" (夏の甲子園 natsu no kōshien), is an annual nationwide high school baseball tournament. It is the largest scale amateur sport event in Japan.
The tournament, organized by the Japan High School Baseball Federation and Asahi Shimbun, takes place during the summer school vacation period, culminating in a two-week final tournament stage with 49 teams in August at Hanshin Koshien Stadium (阪神甲子園球場 hanshin kōshien kyūjō) in the Koshien district of Nishinomiya City, Hyōgo, Japan.
