“My Dragons” brings you news about dragons every day.
This week’s theme is “Favorite Movies”.

This time we have rookie pitcher, Habu Shota.
Born in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, his fastest fastball is 154 km/h, and he was the only rookie to be on the opening day first team.
His name is Ramos, but his father is Japanese and his mother is Filipino, and his mother’s maiden name is Ramos.
What kind of movies does pitcher Habu like?

(Pitcher Shota Habu)
Action movies, especially “Mission: Impossible.”
Tom Cruise stars in it, but I don’t like using stuntmen, so while watching it I imagine Tom Cruise actually doing it.
I watched it and thought it was amazing.

Q: How do you feel when you watch it?
Wow, I feel like I can’t do this.
I think the scene where he clings to the plane and flies is amazing.

Q: Pitcher Habu: “Go to the mound in a pinch + the opposing batter is amazing.” Will he be able to accomplish this mission?
I’ll strike you out!

Q: Can I say Tom Cruise with Dragons?
It’s still too early…

And Tom Cruise is amazing.

Tom Cruise stars in “Mission: Impossible.”
This is a hugely popular spy action movie series, the first of which was released in 1996.
Now 61 years old, he rarely uses stuntmen.
The seventh film was released last year.
You take on various missions to save the world from crisis, but there are also various baseball missions.
When I asked him, “Can you accomplish the mission of stepping onto the mound in a really tough situation and facing a really great batter?” he replied bluntly, “I’ll strike him out.”

(Announcer Yanagisawa)
He answered my extremely unreasonable request very well.
