The 2007 Central League Climax Series (CLCS) was the opening round of the Central League side of the 2007 NPB postseason to end the 2007 Nippon Professional Baseball season. The inaugural edition consisted of two consecutive series of baseball games, in which Stage 1 was a best-of-three series and Stage 2 was a best-of-five. The winner of the series advanced to the 2007 Japan Series, where they competed against the 2007 Pacific League Climax Series (PLCS) winner. The top three regular-season finishers played in the two series. The CLCS began with the first game of Stage 1 on October 13 and ended with the final game of Stage 2 on October 20. The following year saw the institution of a one-win advantage for the regular season champion that meant the First Stage winner would need to win four of six games to advance to the Japan Series.
