On the 8th, Softbank announced that the film "HAWKS SP!RIT - 273 Days of Memories" will be released in 35 cinemas nationwide from Friday, December 26th.
This is the third film produced by the team, and is a feature-length documentary that follows The Hawks' fight to win the Persol Pacific League and become the best team in Japan.
The start of the season was a struggle, with the team losing three straight games at home and finishing in last place for the first time in 12 years. With a string of player departures, manager Kokubo himself described the 2025 season as an "abnormal situation" and a series of "decisions." To climb out of the depths, what were the "convictions" that the manager and players adhered to?
The film weaves together a wealth of footage captured by a camera that was always close to the team, revealing what went on behind the scenes of the 273-day fierce battle.
