Tokyo Giants, No. 3, Second Baseman:
Shigeru Chiba (1919 – 2002)
He popularized this dish among the Japanese people.
We Japanese have a moral duty to cheer for the Tokyo Giants.
The 2026 NPB(Nippon Professional Baseball League) season kicks off the day after tomorrow, March 27, at Tokyo Dome. Our arch-rivals, the Osaka Tigers—whom we detest from the bottom of our hearts—are our opponents in the opening game. To help our heroes of justice, the Tokyo Giants, defeat that evil yellow army (Osaka Tigers), I made yellow rice katsu curry today. I devoured this in an instant.
In recent years, this dish has become popular among foreign tourists visiting Japan. Let’s all eat katsu curry and cheer on the Tokyo Giants.
