Cross Game (クロスゲーム ,Kurosu Gēmu?) is an ongoing romantic comedy baseball manga series by Mitsuru Adachi serialized by Shogakukan in Weekly Shōnen Sunday since issue 22/23 in 2005. The manga series was adapted as an anime TV series that began airing on the TV Tokyo network on 5 April 2009. The first episode of the anime series, which covers the time frame of the first volume of the manga, received high praise, even outside of Japan. The manga series received the 2009 Shogakukan Manga Award for shōnen manga.

Cross Game is the story of Kō Kitamura and the four Tsukishima sisters, Ichiyo, Wakaba, Aoba, and Momiji. The Tsukushima family runs a batting center with an attached coffee shop, and Kō's father runs a neighboring sporting good store. Wakaba and Kō were born on the same day in the same hospital, and have been close friends since childhood—close enough that Wakaba treats Kō as her boyfriend, even though nothing is officially declared. Aoba, who is one year younger than Wakaba and Kō, doesn't like how Kō is "taking" her sister away from her and claims she hates him.

The first part of the story, "Seasons of Wakaba" (若葉の季節 ,Wakaba no Kisetsu?), is a prologue that takes place while the main characters are in elementary school. The second part, "Seasons of Aoba" (青葉の季節 ,Aoba no Kisetsu?), which restarts the numbering of chapters, starts four years later while Kō is in the third year of junior high and continues into his second year of high school. The manga series went on a six-month hiatus at the end of part two, resuming in March 2009 with the start of part three, continuing Kō's second year of high school.
