Rookies (2008)

I automatically think of tumbling when I think of Rookies and vice versa. All trouble boys learning a sport together. They learn to build a friendship with their members and learn to love the sport.

it is a continuation of the drama and the baseball play there is awesome

both have delinquents and they a passionate teacher supporting and believing in them. Same concept, one is about baseball and the other about life. You'll love Rookies.

Both titles deal with a similar issue: an inspirational teacher who makes his students believe again in themselves and their dreams.

both of them talking about achieving the dreams , baseball and Koshien !!
if you liked the baseball theme Rookies would be the drama that will show how hard and competitive the way to koshien is !!

A teacher, who is all smiles, turns thug kids into a baseball team.

Both is about baseball, but if rookies is more transforming delinquent into a baseball champion, H2 is more into 2 bestfriend that approaching their dreams to become a star player of baseball by entering a drifferent school, 1 of them go to school that strong in baseball and the other don't.

Friend's coming together to play baseball...

Both are school drama, portraying a new teacher coming to class, and the students are against it.

Both deal with an unconventional teacher and their methods to motivate and stimulate their rambunctious, trouble-making students into becoming hard-working, self-respecting students and members of society.

They both have high school young men, and all the members learning a sport, the only difference is that water boys didn't have delinquents. Rookies were a bunch of bullies, thugs, outcast brought together to play baseball.

High school baseball with the aim of going to Koshien. Both movies have touching and beautiful moments of teamwork. Characters are developed and keeps you cheering for the teams.

The themes behind these dramas are similar. The delinquent class meets a new teacher with a "past" and slowly begin to change for the better. Both dramas are bright, hope for the future sort of stories. They leave you with warm fuzzy feelings at the end.

both deal with baseball and friendship

Recommended for baseball lovers. Tells the story of a japanese literature teacher who changed a baseball club from one that only liked violence to a true baseball club
