SIGN    Ticks Me Off!
[01:37] Murata
    Glad I managed to make it tonight.
[01:39] Murata
    It's been another crazy week.
[01:43] Narrator
    Murata's been in the working
    world for a few years now,
[01:45] Narrator
    and he's still all-in on
    that corporate slave life.
[01:49] Narrator
    The ballpark is the place
    he goes to relieve stress.
[01:53] Narrator
    For the baseball-loving Murata, there's a
    particular moment that gets him excited.
[01:59] Murata
    When you leave the tunnel
    with its dim fluorescent lighting,
[02:02] Murata
    pass through the gate leading to the seats...
[02:07] Murata
    and all of a sudden, you can see everything!
[02:10] Murata
    It never gets old!
[02:23] Murata
    It's like entering a new world where I can
    forget all about the company and my work.
[02:29] Hotaru
    Excuse me.
[02:32] Hotaru
    Hello, Murata! This is quite a coincidence!
[02:32] sign
    New Employee at Murata's Company
     Shimizu Hotaru (Age 23)
[02:34] Murata
    Sh-Shimizu?! What are you doing here?
[02:38] Hotaru
    What am I doing?
    I'm watching baseball, of course!
[02:41] Murata
    Y-Yeah, makes sense.
[02:45] Murata
    Welp, back in the old world again.
[02:47] Hotaru
    Would you like to watch the game together?
[02:50] Hotaru
    Do you mind if I sit next to you?
[02:52] Murata
    Well, y'know... I don't do
    any cheering or anything...
[02:57] Murata
    I'm not much fun as a companion.
[02:58] Hotaru
    That's no problem at all!
[03:00] Hotaru
    I prefer to take it easy, too.
[03:02] Murata
    I "take it easy" by watching solo, though...
[03:06] Murata
    Oh, well.
[03:08] Hotaru
    Hey, Murata...
[03:11] Hotaru
    Please don't laugh at me, but...
[03:14] Murata
    Wh-What?
[03:15] Hotaru
    I watch my games in a uniform. Excuse me!
[03:21] Murata
    You brought a uniform
    to the office with you?!
[03:25] Hotaru
    Not quite. I keep one at the office!
[03:28] Hotaru
    So I can go anytime I like!
[03:32] Murata
    That's a great new hire my company made!
[03:35] Murata
    You drink beer?
[03:37] Hotaru
    Yes!
[03:42] Murata
    Excuse me!
[03:44] Ruriko
    Coming!
[03:45] Murata
    Oh, it's Ruriko.
[03:49] Ruriko
    Hey, mister. Can't remember
    the last time you called me over.
[03:52] Murata
    Um... I'll take two, please.
[03:55] Ruriko
    Two?
[03:58] Hotaru
    Bryan's butt still looks great!
[04:02] Murata
    Sh-She's just my junior at the office.
[04:06] Ruriko
    I see.
[04:08] Narrator
    Ruriko was thinking...
[04:12] Ruriko
    Kinda... ticks me off.
[04:18] Hotaru
    Kojiro popped it up!
[04:21] Umpire
    Out!
[04:28] Ruriko
    Hey, Kojiro's gonna be fine.
[04:31] Ruriko
    He's got that WRC+ of 120, after all.
[04:35] sign
    Still using that tidbit
    she got from Murata
[04:35] Ruriko
    Right, Mr. Regular?
[04:37] Murata
    Huh? Yeah...
[04:40] Hotaru
    That's true.
[04:42] Hotaru
    Sabermetrically speaking, Kojiro's
    putting up really good numbers.
[04:48] Hotaru
    Baseball is a "sport about failure,"
    so you're right.
[04:52] Hotaru
    You can't get too worked up about
    the outcome of any one at-bat.
[04:57] Hotaru
    Kojiro has great fielding stats, too.
[05:02] Hotaru
    He has incredible coverage
    for his age and a +8.0 UZR!
[05:03] sign
    UZR = Ultimate Zone Rating
     A metric for how many runs a fielder prevents.
[05:09] Murata
    Y-You know your stuff!
[05:11] Hotaru
    Well, I was a manager for
    my school baseball team.
[05:22] Ruriko
    Ninsta...
[05:24] Ruriko
    You got a Ninsta account?
[05:25] Hotaru
    Oh, Ninsta?
[05:28] Hotaru
    I'm afraid not.
[05:33] Ruriko
    What a waste!
[05:36] Ruriko
    No Ninsta, huh? You're really missing out!
[05:40] Hotaru
    I'm so ignorant about that kind of thing...
[05:43] Hotaru
    It's embarrassing.
[05:47] Ruriko
    Well, you might have fun giving Ninsta a try.
[05:52] Ruriko
    Thanks for the purchase!
[05:54] sign
    Also incompetent
    with social media
[05:57] Narrator
    Ruriko was trounced.
[06:05] Regular
    One fried chicken meal pack, please.
[06:07] Natsuno
    One fried chicken meal pack!
    That'll be 1,200 yen!
[06:12] Regular
    Here you go.
[06:13] Natsuno
    Thank you!
[06:15] Regular
    You're doing a great job again today, Yamada.
[06:19] Natsuno
    Hardly, but I'm doing the best I can.
[06:23] Natsuno
    Here's your meal!
[06:25] Regular
    Thanks. Later!
[06:27] Natsuno
    Thank you for coming!
[06:30] Natsuno
    Welco—
[06:32] Natsuno
    P-Prince Charming!
[06:37] Natsuno
    Welcome!
[06:38] Natsuno
    Will it be one mega-portion
    ultra meal pack, as usual?
[06:43] Murata
    Y-Yeah, please...
[06:50] Hotaru
    And I'll have the same!
[06:52] Natsuno
    What's going on?!
[06:54] Natsuno
    Who is she?
[06:56] Natsuno
    My prince... Who is she?!
[07:00] Natsuno
    Who's that girl showing off her legs?!
[07:08] Hotaru
    Since we've got our meals,
    should we get another beer?
[07:11] Murata
    Y-You think so? Okay.
[07:14] Murata
    Excuse me!
[07:16] Ruriko
    Coming! Thanks for the business!
[07:21] Hotaru
    Bryan's finally up!
[07:24] Ruriko
    Here you are, miss!
[07:26] Hotaru
    Thank you.
[07:29] Ruriko
    Here you are, Mr. Regular!
[07:37] Natsuno
    This is awful! I forgot to
    give them their change!
[07:44] Natsuno
    No! Stop that now, Natsuno!
[07:46] Natsuno
    Don't bring your personal
    feelings into the job!
[07:53] Natsuno
    Excuse me—

[08:48] Narrator
    However...

[08:53] Natsuno
    That'll be 1,200 yen, please!

    Here you are!
[09:00] Natsuno
    Welcome!
[09:05] Narrator
    Kojiro's wife, Yuki,
    let out the deepest of sighs.
[09:10] Yuki
    Kojiro... Why aren't you selling more?!
[09:13] Yuki
    You've sold as many as Mitsui!
[09:17] Yuki
    One Kojiro meal pack, please.
[09:19] Natsuno
    One Kojiro meal pack. That'll be 1,200 yen!

    Here you are.
[09:30] Natsuno
    Thank you for coming!
[09:33] Yuki
    He's sold one more meal pack
    than Mitsui now, at least.

    I'll take two Mitsui meal packs.

    Hey, a Mitsui meal pack!
[10:43] Ruriko
    Pretty intense.
[10:45] Kisa
    Y-Yes.
[10:46] Ruriko
    Now and again, I see young women who
    are fans of guys like Mitsui or Kojiro.
[10:52] Ruriko
    I love people who march to their own drummer.
[10:56] Ruriko
    Here.
[10:57] Kisa
    Thanks.

[12:01] Male Fan A/B
    Huh?
[12:03] Male Fan A
    They're all out of the Kojiro meals?
[12:05] Male Fan B
    The Mitsui meals, too!
[12:08] Male Fan
    I loved the subtle flavor of Japanese broth
    with the slow-stewed vegetables.
[12:13] Male Fan
    Really makes you think of Kojiro.
[12:15] Male Fan B
    And I wanted the pure manliness of the
    fried chicken and white rice in Mitsui's.
[12:22] Male Fan B
    Too bad. I'll take a Shishio meal pack!
[12:25] Male Fan A
    And I'll have a standard.
[12:27] Yuki
    E-Excuse me!
[12:29] Kisa
    C-Can I return these?
[12:35] Colorcaster
    Kojiro takes the lead with a two-run homer!
[12:37] Colorcaster
    And he crosses the plate!
[12:41] Colorcaster
    The starter, Mitsui, comes off
    the bench to congratulate him!
[12:51] Kizu
    This meal pack is way too heavy!
[12:54] Kizu
    Mitsui, are these really the flavors you like?!
[12:57] Yuki
    There's pumpkin in it! Kojiro hates pumpkin!
[13:00] Yuki
    Is he even approving these?!

    It feels like they could become good friends.

    Loving the raincoats.
[13:49] Man B
    You okay out in the rain like that?
[13:52] Ruriko
    Hey, no worries.
[13:54] Ruriko
    I've got plastic wrap over the
    cups so they won't get dirty.
[13:57] Man A
    Not that! It's you we're worried about!
[14:01] Ruriko
    Oh, right...
[14:03] Man A
    Well, guess I'll buy a cup.
[14:06] Man B
    Me, too!
[14:07] Ruriko
    Thanks a ton!
[14:13] Ruriko
    Well, guess I'd better keep at it!
[14:16] Man A
    You sure you shouldn't pack it up already?
[14:21] Ruriko
    Oh, don't worry about me.
[14:25] Ruriko
    The makeup I spent an hour
    applying washed off in a second,
[14:28] Ruriko
    so I'm long past caring.
[14:30] Man A
    She's oddly intense!
[14:34] Murata
    Must be hard for Ruriko out in the rain.
[14:40] Murata
    Still... I splurged on this
    nice seat to treat myself,
[14:45] Murata
    and it happens to be on the day that it rains.
[14:48] Murata
    Still, a seven-run lead in the middle
    of the fourth against the first-place Styx!

[15:23] Murata
    Wh-What?
[15:24] Ruriko
    The rain washed my makeup off, okay?!
[15:28] Murata
    I didn't say that. Or even think it.
[15:33] Ruriko
    Never mind.
[15:34] Ruriko
    As a thank-you for getting

    Yeah!
