    Yes, Sachi-senpai!

    I mean, he was really good.
[03:48] Yui
    Sure, but...

[04:24] Sachiko
    That'll be right after they get back!
[04:26] Yui
    Doesn't this mean one of them
    won't get a seed for the summer?
[04:29] Sachiko
    The non-seeds are scarier
    if they get into a rhythm!
[04:32] Sachiko
    They've just come home, but they've
    already dressed and gotten out there.
[04:36] Sachiko
    They don't want to rest at all.
[04:37] Yui
    They didn't have much time
    to practice in Osaka.
[04:40] Sachiko
    I heard Yamaguchi-kun and Ono-kun
    have gained weight, too.
[04:43] Yui
    We need to get ready, too.
[04:46] Sachiko
    Yeah.
[04:48] Sachiko
    It's our last summer.
[04:57] @Maezono
    You sure, Kominato? I'll go on ahead.
[05:00] @Kominato
    Oh, yeah.
[05:01] @Kominato
    I have something to take care of.
[05:04] @Maezono
    Okay, then. See you later.
[05:09] @int_Maezono
    He didn't get many good
    plays at Koshien Stadium.
[05:13] @int_Maezono
    He probably needs to get over that.
[05:19] (Flashback) @fb_Kominato
    Mom and Dad said they'd come
    to Koshien Stadium to watch.
[05:25] (Flashback) @fb_Kominato
    You're walking a different

[05:28] (Flashback) @fb_Kominato
    You don't need to follow me any more.
[05:31] (Flashback) @fb_Kominato
    Just stick to your own path, Haruichi.
[05:42] Ota
    Another interview request?
[05:44] Ota
    That's the fourth one since we came back.
[05:47] Rei
    We've been invited to
    several friendlies, too.
[05:50] Rei
    We'll have to adjust the schedule.
[05:53] Ochiai
    You're going to play in those games?
[05:55] Rei
    Yes, as many as we can.
[05:58] Rei
    Facing strong opponents will be
    stimulating for the boys, too.
[06:02] Ochiai
    Well, given Furuya's
    pitching at Koshien Stadium,
[06:06] Ochiai
    I guess teams can't leave him alone.
[06:09] Ochiai
    I imagine Kataoka-san will get more invites
    from the alumni and the boosters, too.
[06:14] Rei
    We do rely on their funding
    to run the team.
[06:17] Rei
    I imagine he'll be
    quite busy for a while.
[06:20] Vice
    You made it to the quarterfinals!
[06:22] Principal
    It was a very close game!
[06:25] Principal
    This summer, you'll make the semifinals!
[06:26] Vice
    No, even further!
[06:30] Ochiai
    We have the spring tournament coming up.
[06:32] Ochiai
    I'll watch the team for him.
[06:37] Rei
    That will be a great help.
[06:38] Ochiai
    Not at all. Coaches need to be
    able to handle all kinds of jobs.
[06:43] Ota
    Koshien Stadium is a really special place.
[06:47] Ota
    I feel like the boys look different
    since they came back.

[07:06] Sachiko
    Wh-Why are you trembling, Haruno?
[07:09] Yui
    Are you crying?
[07:10] Haruno
    But Sachi-senpai said
    it's your last summer...
[07:15] Sachiko
    Oh, you...
[07:16] Sachiko
    We still have four months, right?
[07:18] ---
    That's right.
[07:19] Haruno
    Just four months!
[07:20] Sachiko
    Four whole months!
[07:24] @Sawamura
    Don't you have an interview or something?
[07:27] @Sawamura
    How come you're out here, running?
[07:29] @Furuya
    I'm tired of interviews.
[07:31] @Furuya
    They keep asking the same questions.
[07:33] @Sawamura
    Don't try to get everything your way!
[07:35] @Furuya
    I'm not.
[07:36] @Sawamura
    Let me go instead!
[07:38] @Kawakami
    Furuya, you're done with
    practice for today!
[07:41] @Furuya
    But I just started.
[07:42] @Kawakami
    You're done! No more, period!
[07:46] @Kawakami
    You pitched in consecutive games,
[07:47] @Kawakami
    so you need to prioritize recovering
    from the Koshien games.
[07:50] @Sawamura
    That's right!
[07:51] @Sawamura
    Go find a quiet corner to practice
    your interview skills!
[07:52] @Ono
    Nori...
[07:55] Rei
    Those who shone at Koshien Stadium
    and those who didn't
[07:59] Rei
    all want to go back.
[08:02] Rei
    I think they feel it strongly.
[08:06] Ochiai
    Well, I imagine they'll get greedy now.
[08:09] @Kawakami
    Let's go!
[08:10] Rei
    This is the third-years'
    last summer on the team.
[08:13] Rei
    What changes will the
    new first-years bring?
[08:19] Ota
    With our performance last year and
    the showing at the Spring Invitational,
[08:22] Ota
    we'll attract some strong talent!
[08:25] Ochiai
    I looked at the list,
    and it's quite impressive.
[08:29] Ochiai
    Our starters will need to stay on their toes.
[08:33] Rei
    We're going to be targeted
    by a lot of other teams in the summer.
[08:37] Rei
    It will be even harder to get
    to Koshien Stadium this time.
[08:42] Rei
    One advantage we do have...
[08:44] Rei
    is experience.
[08:47] Rei
    Having competed at Koshien Stadium,
[08:49] Rei
    every player has a clearer idea
    of what they want to accomplish.
[08:54] Rei
    They know what worked for them, what didn't,
[08:59] Rei
    and what they need to do to get stronger.
[09:05] Rei
    That's the road to winning
    the national title.
SIGN    Tremble
[09:14] Ochiai
    But darkness follows the light.
[09:17] Ochiai
    To truly soar, we'll need
    to strengthen our base.
[09:24] Rei
    Yes, sir. This is where the going gets tough.
[09:27] Rei
    Please lead us.
[09:31] Sachiko
    See you tomorrow.
[09:32] Haruno
    Right!
[09:38] Haruno
    Was that Kominato-kun?
[09:43] @Maezono
    Hey, Kominato.
[09:44] @Maezono
    So you decided to come...
[10:07] @Maezono
    I like those eyes.
[10:09] @Maezono
    Want to bat?
[10:14] Kofuji
    It's true!
[10:16] _Guy
    He cut his hair!
[10:18] _Guy
    I can see his eyes!
[10:19] _Guy
    He's turning red!
[10:20] @Tojo
    I heard he cut it himself.
[10:29] @Kominato
    What? If you've got
    something to say, say it!
[10:32] @Sawamura
    He's breaking bad!
[10:33] @Sawamura
    Harucchi's a delinquent now!
[10:35] @Sawamura
    Koshien Stadium has changed Harucchi!
[10:39] @Kominato
    So that's what you were thinking.
[10:40] @Miyuki
    That should make it easier to see the ball.
[10:43] @Kuramochi
    It's long overdue if you ask me.
[10:46] @Aso
    An image makeover...
[10:48] @Sawamura
    What's happened to you?!
[10:50] @Kominato
    Don't over-exaggerate!
[10:51] @Sawamura
    Were you suffering alone?!
[10:54] @Sawamura
    Or are you a body double?!
[10:56] @Sawamura
    Or a first-year impersonating him?!

    That's it, no more talking.

[11:17] @Tojo
    Did you see that?

    Yeah.
[11:22] @Kuramochi
    That was surprising.

[18:15] Mogami
    My favorite players are
    Maezono-senpai and Kominato-senpai!
[18:21] (Flashback) fb_Mogami
    For real? Can I really be in this room?
[18:24] (Flashback) fb_Mogami
    Sharing a room with two of the
    main players is too much to ask!
[18:27] (Flashback) fb_Kominato
    Welcome.
[18:28] (Flashback) fb_Maezono
    Nice to meet you.
[18:29] fbint_Mogami
    Wow...
[18:31] fbint_Mogami
    This room is way too good.
[18:33] fbint_Mogami
    Once these two start to like me,
    I'll be a team leader in no time!
[18:40] fbint_Mogami
    They'll be expecting great
    things from me. Oh, man!
[18:44] Mogami
    I can be a bit shy, so please be gentle!
[18:48] Seto
    I'm Takuma Seto from Daikyo Senior.
[18:51] Seto
    I'd like to play second base.
[18:53] Seto
    I have some quick legs!
[18:55] _Both
    Legs?
[18:56] (Flashback) fb_Seto
    It's nice to meet you.
[18:58] (Flashback) fb_Tanaka
    Yeah.
[18:59] @Kanemaru
    I finally get someone younger
    than me in the room.
[19:02] @Kanemaru
    I've been waiting for this.
[19:05] @Tojo
    Shinji...
[19:06] @Shirasu
    It's interesting that
    a Daikyo player chose Seido.
[19:10] @Kawakami
    They usually go to Kanagawa, right?
[19:13] Koshu
    I'm Koshu Okumura from Daikyo Senior.
[19:16] Koshu
    I'd like to play catcher.
[19:18] Koshu
    I don't like any of the
    players in particular.
[19:22] @Kawakami
    Oh, another one from Daikyo Senior?
[19:25] (Flashback) fb_Kimura
    I'm second-year Kimura. Nice to meet you.
[19:28] (Flashback) fb_Kimura
    And that guy...
[19:29] (Flashback) fb_Kimura
    I'm sure you know.
[19:31] (Flashback) fb_Kimura
    He's Miyuki-senpai, the captain.
[19:34] (Flashback) fb_Kimura
    He's not a very fussy guy here,
    so just relax.
[19:49] (Flashback) fb_Okumura
    I'm Okumura, also a catcher.
    It's nice to meet you.
[19:54] @int_Miyuki
    I saw him glaring at me.
[19:58] @int_Miyuki
    The rest of my time here
    will be a lot of fun!
[20:03] @Sawamura
    The first-years are here
    introducing themselves!
[20:06] @Sawamura
    Why are you smirking like that?!
[20:06] @Miyuki
    I'm the captain.
[20:08] @Miyuki
    E-Everybody's watching.
[20:10] @Kataoka
    Is that everyone?
[20:12] Rei
    There's one more.
[20:13] Rei
    He fractured his leg and hasn't
    made it to the dorm yet.
[20:18] Rei
    Including him, there are thirty-five.
[20:20] Rei
    There are several applicants
    for support staff as well.
[20:23] @Kataoka
    I see.
[20:24] Yui
    That's good to hear, right, Haruno?
[20:25] Haruno
    Yes.
[20:28] @Kataoka
    I'm Coach Kataoka!
[20:30] Ochiai
    I'm Ochiai, also a coach.
[20:36] @Kataoka
    As you all know,
[20:38] @Kataoka
    we were playing at Koshien
    Stadium just a few days ago.
[20:43] @Kataoka
    Getting used to high school baseball
    practice is important, of course,
[20:47] @Kataoka
    but I want you to notice
[20:49] @Kataoka
    the attitude and approach with
    which this team practices.
[20:56] @Kataoka
    What they experienced in Koshien Stadium,
    what they learned from it,
[21:00] @Kataoka
    and what they'll need from here on out...
[21:04] @Kataoka
    They've all been steeped in it.
[21:12] @Kataoka
    Start by looking for
    and feeling with your skin
[21:15] @Kataoka
    the kind of baseball we want to play.
[21:19] _All
    Yes, sir!
[21:20] int_Ochiai
    He's firing them up, I see.
[21:24] int_Ochiai
    Those words of encouragement
    for the new recruits
[21:28] int_Ochiai
    lit a fire under the current team as well.
[21:32] @Kataoka
    First-years will have a physical
    skills test on Field B!
[21:35] @Kataoka
    Second and third-years will
    practice on Field A!
[21:38] @Kataoka
    After a break, there will be
    fielding practice with runners!
[21:41] @Kataoka
    Pitchers will be fielding as well!
[21:44] _All
    Yes, sir!
[21:46] Narrator
    The 59 second- and third-years
[21:48] Narrator
    received 35 new recruits.
[21:51] Narrator
    The team now has 94 members.

    Koshien appearances...
[21:59] @Miyuki
    Let's go!
[22:00] _All
    Yeah!
[22:02] Narrator
    ...the new Seido High School
    baseball team is now setting off.

    Please, everyone!

    Eijun-kun, focus on the lead-off batter.
[23:56] @Sawamura
    You've finally opened your mouth!
[23:58] @Sawamura
    Let's use this chance to settle
    our differences, Haruichi-kun!
[24:01] @Miyuki
    At least he's headed
    in the right direction.
[24:03] @Miyuki
    This could work.
[24:04] @Miyuki
    Show everyone your presence.
[24:06] @Sawamura
    I need a winning shot
    that only I can throw.
[24:09] @Sawamura
    I need to go higher, and then some!
