- Ace! (エース!) is a sports manga by Japanese cartoonist Yoichi Takahashi in which baseball is featured. The comic was serialized in Shueisha shonen magazine Weekly Shonen Jump from issue #1·2 of 1990 to issue #26 of 1991, cover dates #1990-01-01 to #1991-06-17, plus three more stories published in Weekly Shonen Jump special issues Summer Special (1991), Autumn Special (1991) and Winter Special (1992), achieving a total of 76 chapters. The last three chapters cover the events of the finals of the district tournament. In the regular serialization, the results were only left in text in a similar manner to what happened with the Japan Youth vs. Netherlands Youth match in Captain Tsubasa: World Youth Hen. The series was originally compiled in nine tankobon volumes from 1990 to 1992. In 1996 the series was reprinted in six aizoban volumes as part of Shueisha Jump Comics Selection line. The six volumes were reprinted in 2007 in bunko format. The plot revolves around the Wakamiya Fighters (若宮ファイターズ) and their new pitcher Kazuya. To a point, the story has a similar concept to Captain Tsubasa, but with baseball, like a gifted schoolchild who has changed schools, superhuman physical strength beyond a child and over the top manoeuvres. It has several differences beyond being different sports, though, such as incorporating more serious themes like the death of the protagonist's father and a younger brother's abduction.
