See the Documentary Homecoming: The Toyko Series

If you are a baseball fan, and more specifically a Dodger or Cub fan, this should be a must see event.

Homecoming: The Tokyo Series explores Japan’s profound bond with baseball, culminating in the 2025 MLB Opening Day games in Tokyo, when hometown heroes Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Shota Imanaga, Seiya Suzuki, and Roki Sasaki return to the field where their journeys began. Through the lives of those shaped by the game, the film reveals how baseball bridges generations, shapes identity, and illuminates the connection between tradition and modern life. More than a chronicle of a sporting event, it is a portrait of a nation’s enduring love for baseball and the pride of watching its stars come home. Alongside the film, the filmmakers captured man-on-the-street interviews with American fans inside the Tokyo Dome who traveled to Japan for the games.

One Viewers Take: The film cuts to Tokyo Dome, an electric atmosphere, and highlights both Japanese and English speaking journalists interviewing the 5 Japanese-born players in the series. The message seems to be that everyday moments make a champion- and that the current Japanese players in MLB are proof for the next generation that Japan can and will succeed in the global sport of baseball.
