The Carp were founded in 1949, four years after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. The team struggled to find success in their early years and faced serious financial issues, but narrowly escaped merger and contraction plans through the fundraising of Hiroshima citizens and fans. The team found stability over the next two decades, eventually rising to their first Central League pennant in 1975, and winning the 1979 Japan Series. In appreciation of their emergence alongside the reconstruction of Hiroshima, the Carp are regarded "as a symbol of Hiroshima's recovery".
