[12:58] Akane     Back in grade school, a friend who     was really nice to me played baseball.

[10:45] Ayaka     High school girls playing with hard baseballs     is a treasure trove of dreams! [10:49] Ayaka     Up until recently, there weren't any     high schools with a girls' baseball team. [10:55] Ayaka     Middle schools and universities had them, [10:57] Ayaka     but for some reason, no high schools did. [10:58] Tsubasa     Wow, really? [11:01] Waka     You didn't know? [11:02] Ayaka     So high school girls could     only play for club teams, [11:05] Ayaka     or play on boys' teams, where they     couldn't play in official games. [11:13] Ayaka     Then, in 1995, a friendly game     using hardballs was organized, SIGN    Fussa Municipal Fussa Baseball Field [11:18] Ayaka     pitting a team of high school girls     against a team from abroad. [11:21] Ayaka     That spawned the idea of holding     a national tournament for high school girls. [11:27] Ayaka     Then, little by little, girls' baseball     teams started popping up. [11:33] Ayaka     There are currently around     30 schools in the league. [11:37] Ayaka     More and more girls have gone pro, too. [11:40] Ayaka     But it's still only 30 schools. [11:43] Ayaka     Girls' baseball has only     just started catching on, [11:46] Ayaka     and I'm going to make it     even more widespread! [11:49] Ayaka     Gold like this makes me     feel lucky I'm a journalist! [11:52] Tsubasa     I'm totally feeling your passion right now! [11:55] Tsubasa     I gladly accept your proposal     to do a feature on us! [11:57] Waka     It might help us recruit new members, too. [12:00] Ayaka     That's what I wanted to hear! [12:02] Saki     Speaking of baseball,     there are some batting cages near here. [12:05] Tsubasa     Oh, that's right! There are! [12:07] Yuuki     What are batting cages like? [12:10] Waka     You don't know? [12:11] Tsubasa     Let's go there! After all,     seeing is... um... something or other! [12:16] Tomoe     I think you mean... [12:18] Tomoe     "Seeing is believing." [12:24] Tsubasa     I used to come to these     batting cages all the time! [12:26] Waka     Same. I was only accompanying     my brother, though. [12:30] Kid     Outta the park, bro! [12:33] Kid     Dammit! [12:35] Kid     Keep your eye on the ball. [12:37] Kid     I know! [12:39] Akane     They look like... they're having fun. [12:42] Yuuki     He must have played on a youth team. [12:45] Tomoe     Just like you did, Tsubasa! [12:49] Tsubasa     Yeah, maybe. [12:50] Yuuki     Um... [12:52] Yuuki     Nakano-san mentioned     club teams earlier. [12:55] Yuuki     Girls can play baseball there too, right? [12:57] Waka     Sure, if they're good enough. [13:10] Tsubasa     Go for it, Tomocchi! [13:12] Tomoe     All right... [13:14] Tomoe     Huh? I missed... [13:16] Tsubasa     Watch the ball until the very last second. [13:18] Tomoe     Until the very last second... [13:23] Waka     If it's a fastball, I just     need to get the timing right. [13:27] Waka     Left     Field     Hit [13:32] Waka     One more. [13:39] Yuuki     I did it! [13:42] Aoi     What? [13:43] Aoi     That can't be right... [13:50] Aoi     I can predict them now!

[15:13] Ayaka     Is this right? [15:14] Tsubasa     Yeah, that's great! Now, just stay focused. [15:18] Ayaka     And pump myself up, right? [15:21] Ayaka     I took notes earlier. [15:23] Tsubasa     You're one shrewd journalist. Go for it! [15:27] Ayaka     I'm gonna hit it! [15:30] Ayaka     Right     Field     Hit [15:34] Ayaka     I hit it! [15:36] Tsubasa     Great job! [15:37] Tsubasa     So how did it feel? [15:41] Ayaka     Um... [15:43] Ayaka     It felt great! [15:45] Tsubasa     Doesn't it? [15:47] Tomoe     Darn... [15:48] Waka     One more.

[17:45] Yuuki     Arihara-san really is incredible! [17:49] Tomoe     Isn't she? Tsubasa's always     been amazing at baseball. [18:17] Ayaka     So you're Shinonome-san,     right? From Class 5? [18:20] Tsubasa     That was some amazing batting! [18:23] Ryou     Was it? [18:25] Tsubasa     Hey, would you be— [18:26] Ryou     You think... [18:28] Ryou     ...baseball is just a game now, don't you? [18:31] Tsubasa     Huh? [18:33] Ryou     I was sure we'd get to face each other again. [18:36] Ryou     I can't believe you     decided to play pretend. [18:39] Ryou     I have to go. [18:45] Tomoe     What's her problem?     What did she mean by "play pretend"?

[18:58] Ayaka     I got a real scoop! [19:00] Tomoe     Nakano-san, when did you do this? [19:02] Ayaka     I found it last night. [19:05] Ayaka     It's the semifinal game of the All-Japan     Senior Little League Championship! [19:09] Akane     Is that... [19:10] Ayaka     Yep! It's Shinonome-san,     the girl from yesterday! [19:14] Ayaka     And this here is... [19:16] All     Arihara-san! [19:18] Tomoe     That brings back memories. [19:27] Tsubasa     You're Shinonome-san, right?     From Kuramoto Chuo Senior? [19:30] Tsubasa     I was at Fujiura Senior... [19:32] Ryou     I never thought we'd end up     in the same high school. [19:35] Tsubasa     You came to a high school     without a baseball team too, huh? [19:39] Ryou     I intend to join a club team. [19:42] Ryou     One that competes at the highest level. [19:44] Ryou     I have a tryout this weekend. [19:47] Tsubasa     I see. [19:52] Ryou     What about you? [19:54] Tsubasa     Oh, I'm having lots of fun! [19:55] Tsubasa     The other girls are newbies,     but I think they can... [19:58] Ryou     I can't fathom why you'd play pretend     with a bunch of first-timers. [20:03] Tsubasa     That's... [20:06] Ryou     Or... [20:07] Ryou     Did you not take that game seriously, either? [20:11] Tsubasa     Th-That's not... [20:16] Ryou     Not that it matters. [20:18] Ryou     You're wasting your time if you're     here to ask me to join your team. [20:24] Ryou     I'm aiming at going pro.     I don't have time to mess around. [20:30] Ayaka     In other words, Arihara Tsubasa won     a national Senior Little League tournament! [20:36] Akane     She won a national tournament? [20:38] Waka     I knew there was more to her than she let on. [20:40] Yuuki     Kawakita-san, why did Arihara-san     start a baseball team here [20:44] Yuuki     instead of joining a club team? [20:46] Tomoe     Huh? [20:47] Yuuki     It's been eating at me. [20:49] Yuuki     She seems good enough     to play for a club team. [20:53] Tomoe     Well... um...

[00:58] Tsubasa     Exam prep! [01:01] Tomoe     We don't want Tsubasa to fail her     exams and have to miss practice. [01:07] Yoshimi     E-Exams?! Is it that time of year already?! [01:10] Waka     You actually forgot? [01:12] Yuuki     Kawakita-san certainly is     a good helper, though. [01:17] Yuuki     She always checks her homework for her, too. [01:20] Ryou     Don't you think you're spoiling her? [01:23] Tsubasa     It's fine! [01:25] Tsubasa     'Cause we're... [01:27] Tsubasa     best friends! Right? [01:30] Tomoe     Yeah, yeah. SIGN    What We Do From Now On [03:10] Tsubasa     I think we should bump our     practice regimen up a notch, [03:13] Tsubasa     to give us a chance     at winning our next game. [03:16] Ryou     Then, let's get started right away. [03:18] All     Yeah! [03:19] Ryou     Here we go! [03:21] Ryou     One out, runner on first! [03:27] Ryou     You're next! [03:28] Tomoe     Right! [03:37] Ryou     Stay alert, second! [03:39] Tomoe     Right! Sorry, Tsubasa! [03:41] Tsubasa     Don't worry about it! [03:43] Ryou     Next, right field! [04:06] Akane     I caught it! [04:08] Tsubasa     Nice catch, Akane-chan! [04:11] Ryou     Keep it up! [04:13] Akane     Okay! [04:14] Ryou     Here's one more! [04:15] Akane     Okay! [04:21] Tsubasa     Nice catch! [04:23] Tsubasa     Yeah! Looking good! [04:31] Yoshimi     We put in a lot of work today! [04:33] Aoi     See you all tomorrow! [04:34] Tsubasa     Good work, girls! [04:36] Ayaka     Today really wore me out. [04:39] Yuuki     Our practices are really     starting to come together now. [04:43] Tsubasa     Think we're moving too fast? [04:45] Ryou     No, we're not doing nearly enough. [04:49] Ryou     If we want to win, we need     to practice even harder. [04:53] Ryou     I'm sure Seijo's practices     look nothing like ours. [04:58] Akane     Then... [04:59] Akane     We'll work hard! [05:01] Yuuki     Indeed. [05:02] Waka     Yeah, we want to win next time. [05:04] Ayaka     Let's work our tails off again tomorrow! [05:07] Three     Work our tails off! [05:17] Tsubasa     Was today's practice hard on you? [05:20] Tomoe     Huh? Maybe a little... [05:23] Tomoe     But everyone's really pumped,     so I have to do my part, too. [05:27] Tsubasa     Let me know if I can help out, okay? [05:32] Tsubasa     I still need you to help me     study for the exams, too! [05:38] Tomoe     Yeah, I suppose... [05:40] Tsubasa     Seriously! I really need your help! [05:43] Tomoe     I know, I know. SIGN    Reward for a high grade: [05:57] Tomoe     I still have time, right? [06:05] Tomoe     Huh? [06:06] ?     One, two, three, four, five... [06:13] Tsubasa     Oh, Tomocchi! [06:15] Tomoe     It's not time for practice yet.     What are you all doing here? [06:18] Tsubasa     I thought I'd start a little early today, [06:21] Tsubasa     and I guess everyone else had the same idea. [06:26] Tsubasa     Tomocchi, let's do our stretches. [06:28] Tomoe     S-Sure. [06:31] Yuuki     I guess the next practice     will be after our exams, huh? [06:34] Akane     So no practice for a whole week... [06:36] Yoshimi     All right! Let's go get something     to eat on the way home! [06:41] Ayaka     Yeah, I'm in! [06:43] Yoshimi     Let's go! [06:45] Tsubasa     Oh, okay. We'll catch up to you. [06:48] Yoshimi     Okay! [06:49] ?     We'll see you there! [06:51] Tsubasa     Is that a practice regimen? [06:53] Tomoe     I thought I'd practice on     my own between exams. [06:58] Tomoe     I came up with a pretty tough regimen... [07:01] Tomoe     What do you think? [07:02] Tsubasa     Tomocchi... [07:04] Tsubasa     You don't need to be in such a rush. [07:08] Tsubasa     Everyone improves at their own pace. [07:11] Tomoe     But... [07:13] Tsubasa     Once the exams are over,     I'll stay late to practice with you! [07:19] Tsubasa     Come on, let's join the others. [07:29] Tsubasa     Tomocchi! [07:30] Tsubasa     Er... Huh? [07:32] Akane     Kawakita-san went home already. [07:34] Tsubasa     What? [07:55] Tomoe     After we lost that game... [07:58] Tomoe     Did I feel as frustrated as everyone else? [08:05] Kids     Bye! [08:06] Kids     See ya! [08:23] Tomoe     I didn't even know this was here. [08:37] Sayaka     Aren't you... [08:44] Tomoe     You're Seijo's... [08:49] Tomoe     Jinguji-san? [08:52] Tomoe     Um... Do you practice here often? [08:57] Sayaka     Yes. I always come here after team practice. [09:00] Sayaka     The head priest here likes baseball, [09:03] Sayaka     so he said I could toss a ball around     on this bit of the temple grounds. [09:07] Tomoe     Wow... [09:08] Sayaka     I'll be practicing over here. [09:10] Sayaka     Don't mind me. Carry on     with what you were doing. [09:12] Tomoe     Ah... um... I mean... [09:20] Sayaka     I shouldn't butt in... [09:24] Sayaka     But the way you held your glove out earlier... [09:26] Sayaka     You won't get away with that in a game. [09:29] Sayaka     Before practicing on your own, [09:31] Sayaka     I recommend seeking guidance from     someone who's qualified to coach you. [09:35] Sayaka     Well, anyway... [09:36] Tomoe     What am I doing wrong? [09:38] Tomoe     Please, don't hold back! Be strict with me! [09:42] Sayaka     You should ask your teammates, not me— [09:45] Tomoe     Tsubasa can't help me! [09:47] Sayaka     Tsubasa? [09:48] Tomoe     Please! [09:52] Sayaka     All right, fine, but... [09:54] Sayaka     Give me some space. [09:56] Tomoe     Oh... S-Sorry. [10:00] Waka     Kawakita-san's acting strange? [10:02] Tsubasa     Yeah... She promised to study with me, [10:06] Tsubasa     but it feels like she's avoiding me. [10:10] Waka     You had an argument? [10:10] Tsubasa     Of course not! [10:12] Yuuki     Have you heard from her at all? [10:14] Tsubasa     Yeah, she told me on NINE     that she had stuff to do. [10:17] Waka     That's probably why, then. [10:19] Tsubasa     Yeah, but... [10:20] Tsubasa     She's never done anything like this before. [10:25] Yoshimi     Arise, arrange, associate... [10:28] Aoi     Oh? [10:29] Yoshimi     "Oh"? "Oh" what? [10:32] Aoi     Look there! [10:34] Yoshimi     Tomoe? [10:35] Aoi     Is she going to pray for exam success? [10:37] Yoshimi     From the temple? [10:41] Sayaka     Move toward it. [10:43] Sayaka     Catch it as it bounces, as if     you're scooping it off the ground. [10:46] Tomoe     Okay! [10:48] Sayaka     Don't bend down too far. Try it again. [10:51] Tomoe     Okay! [10:52] Aoi     Doesn't look like she's here to pray. [10:54] Yoshimi     What's going on? SIGN    1 new message SIGN    Iwaki SIGN    Yoshimi [11:07] Tsubasa     Huh?! [11:09] Sayaka     Good work. [11:10] Tomoe     Oh, thank you. [11:13] Tomoe     Is this how tough Seijo's     practices usually are? [11:16] Sayaka     Tough? [11:18] Sayaka     Well... yes, I guess so. [11:20] Tomoe     That's amazing. No wonder     your team is so good. [11:25] Sayaka     Not good enough. [11:27] Sayaka     There are better teams than us at nationals. [11:33] Sayaka     Besides, until recently, our team     was in danger of getting axed for good. [11:37] Tomoe     What? Why? [11:40] Sayaka     Our coach was caught up     in a scandal last year. [11:43] Sayaka     We only got the team back together in April. [11:46] Sayaka     So the difference in skill between the     first-years and the third-years is huge. [11:51] Sayaka     We still have a lot of work to do. [11:54] Tomoe     I see... [12:00] Tsubasa     Senpai! [12:02] Aoi     Tsubasa. [12:11] Tsubasa     She's with Jinguji-san? Why? [12:15] Aoi     No, wait! [12:16] Tsubasa     Tomocchi! [12:18] Tomoe     Tsubasa? [12:20] Sayaka     You're... Arihara-san, wasn't it? [12:23] Tsubasa     What are you doing? [12:26] Tomoe     She's here to help me practice. [12:29] Tomoe     I asked her to... [12:30] Tsubasa     I told you I'd practice with you     after the exams were over! [12:40] Tomoe     And I told you I wanted to practice now! [12:42] Tsubasa     Well, you could've run it by me first! [12:44] Tomoe     Would you have been fine with it if I had?! [12:46] Tsubasa     You know I wouldn't! [12:48] Tomoe     So what would be the point of telling you? [12:53] Tsubasa     Why Jinguji-san, anyway?! [12:58] Tomoe     Because you can't be strict with me! [13:03] Tsubasa     Th-That's because... I worry about you... [13:07] Tomoe     Don't baby me! [13:09] Tomoe     Don't baby me. [13:14] Tomoe     Is it because we're best friends? [13:19] Tomoe     If that's your reason, [13:23] Tomoe     then I'm done being your best friend. [13:30] Yoshimi     Tomoe! [13:57] Akane     Oh, you're here early. [14:01] Tomoe     Morning. [14:04] Tsubasa     Tomocchi! [14:08] Tsubasa     Um... H-Hey, listen... [14:10] Tomoe     I'm in a hurry. [14:34] Yuuki     Um... Is everything all right? [14:39] Waka     If this hadn't happened during exams, [14:42] Waka     you probably could have     talked it out at practice. [14:45] Yuuki     But... why practice with Jinguji-san? [14:48] Ryou     I don't see a problem with it. [14:52] Ryou     She has the makings of a good coach, [14:55] Ryou     and if she shows Tomoe     some of Seijo's drills, [14:58] Ryou     our team could benefit from it. [15:02] Yuuki     Still... (Flashback) [15:23] Tomoe     I'm done being your best friend. [15:42] Tsubasa     Jinguji-san... [15:50] Tsubasa     I'm sorry you had to witness me     behaving like that the other day. [15:55] Sayaka     Apology accepted. [15:59] Tsubasa     Um, is Tomocchi... [16:02] Sayaka     Do you mean Kawakita-san? [16:05] Sayaka     She was here doing solo practice     until just a little while ago. [16:08] Sayaka     She seems to be studying     hard for her exams as well. [16:12] Tsubasa     Sh-She is, huh? [16:14] Sayaka     She said you two hadn't spoken since. [16:19] Sayaka     You two have been friends since     you were very young, haven't you? [16:23] Tsubasa     Yeah... We live close to each other, [16:26] Tsubasa     so we're... best friends. [16:30] Sayaka     I don't see best friends as     something desirable for baseball. [16:34] Tsubasa     Huh? [16:36] Sayaka     If the relationship is personal,     you tend to be too soft on each other, right? [16:40] Tsubasa     Too soft... [16:42] Sayaka     Don't you think that might be why     she didn't want you coaching her? [16:48] Sayaka     In baseball, you need comrades     you can strive for victory with. [16:53] Tsubasa     Comrades? [16:56] Sayaka     I don't expect you to understand. [16:59] Sayaka     I could tell from our practice game     that I don't think the same way [17:03] Sayaka     as the students from Sato High do. [17:05] Sayaka     I stand to gain nothing from     butting into your affairs, anyway. [17:13] Sayaka     If you'll excuse me. [17:17] Yuuki     How's Kawakita-san doing? [17:19] Akane     Fine. Or at least, she pretends she is. [17:23] Akane     What about Arihara-san? [17:24] Yuuki     She's getting weaker by the day. [17:26] Ayaka     She's gonna fail her exams for sure. [17:30] Waka     We can't even focus on our     own studies like this. [17:34] Yuuki     We have to do something. [17:36] Ryou     But is there anything we can do? [17:37] Yoshimi     Sure there is. [17:39] Yuuki     There is? [17:40] Aoi     What is it? [17:41] Yoshimi     What you need at a time     like this... is your fists! [17:51] Tsubasa     "Let's settle this." [17:54] Tomoe     "I'll be waiting at the field after school." [17:57] Tomoe     Tsubasa... [17:58] Tsubasa     Tomocchi... [18:07] Waka     I can't believe that worked. [18:10] Yoshimi     I'm the reason they started fighting. [18:13] Yoshimi     It's the least I can do to atone. [18:15] Yoshimi     They should let their fists do     the talking until they fix this. [18:18] Ryou     As if they'd start hitting each other... [18:28] Tsubasa     How's your solo practice going? [18:30] Tomoe     Huh? [18:31] Tomoe     Pretty good... I think. [18:36] Tsubasa     I see. [18:40] Tomoe     I'm sorry for what I said. [18:43] Tomoe     I went too far. [18:46] Tsubasa     That's not... [18:48] Tomoe     But... I wanted you to     understand how I felt. [18:54] Tsubasa     I do want to know how you feel. [19:00] Tsubasa     I think it started when we     formed the association... [19:03] Tomoe     No. [19:04] Tomoe     It was when I said I wanted     to play baseball with you. [19:09] Tomoe     The moment we both started sharing a goal, [19:11] Tomoe     I think our friendship changed. [19:16] Tomoe     I didn't even realize that     I was diving into your world. [19:21] Tomoe     When everyone else on     the team overtook me, [19:25] Tomoe     I finally realized I hadn't     taken on the full weight of that. [19:33] Tsubasa     I'm sorry. I didn't notice, either. [19:38] Tomoe     We both got a little spoiled, huh? [19:42] Tsubasa     That's why you went to Jinguji-san? [19:45] Tomoe     Maybe... [19:49] Tomoe     I want to get better at baseball. [19:53] Tomoe     I don't want to hold you and the team back. [19:56] Tomoe     So... [19:58] Tomoe     I can't be your best friend.

[06:08] Waka     If she joined our team,     she'd be a real asset. [06:11] Kana     That's not possible. [06:13] Ayaka     Wh-What? [06:14] Kana     I'm only here to evaluate you. Nothing more. [06:17] Waka     Oh... Sorry. [06:21] Yoshimi     See? You did it again. [06:23] Kana     I'm sorry. I don't mean to sound hostile. [06:26] Aoi     Tsukumo's a pretty awkward girl. [06:29] Akane     Awkward? [06:30] Yuuki     Sorry I'm late! [06:35] Maiko     Why is a student council member here? [06:38] Yuuki     She's evaluating us     because we want club status. [06:43] Yuuki     This is Kurashiki Maiko-senpai, a second-year. [06:45] Aoi     Oh, yeah! You're in the class     next-door to mine! [06:48] Yuuki     She's very athletic. She was     one of the best at dodgeball. [06:53] Waka     Really? In that case,     you might make a good pitcher. [06:57] Maiko     I really don't care about any of that. [06:59] Maiko     I'm only here because I was bored. [07:01] Yoshimi     Oh, come on! You came     because you were interested! [07:08] Tsubasa     Okay, we'll say you're a trial member for now.

[07:43] Maiko     You're still being evaluated to get     official club status, aren't you? [07:47] Maiko     I don't want to deal     with that kind of hassle. [07:49] Yuuki     Please don't leave. [07:50] Yuuki     We all want to get better. [07:53] Yuuki     If you stay with us,     I think we'll be able to. [07:56] Tsubasa     Won't you give it just a little bit longer?

All of them were over the last year. [08:25] Shiho     Each time, she was out     walking late at night, [08:28] Shiho     but when asked why she was out there,     she never gave an answer. [08:31] Kana     That is certainly cause for concern, [08:34] Kana     but what's your opinion     after meeting her yourself? [08:38] Shiho     At present, I'm unable     to make any judgments. [08:41] Shiho     But... [08:43] Shiho     She is rather antisocial, [08:45] Shiho     so communicating with her teammates     may be a struggle. [08:54] Kana     Are you really in a position to say that? [09:03] Ryou     Try holding it like this when you throw. [09:31] Yoshimi     You should practice with this! [09:33] Maiko     What... is that? [09:35] Yoshimi     A ball, of course! [10:01] Maiko     Be careful. [10:03] Akane     Thanks... [10:08] Tsubasa     Kurashiki-senpai!

[13:45] Yuuki     It's a special dinner for our     last night of training camp. [13:48] Kake     Thank you, Nozaki-san. [13:50] Kake     Well, shall we? [13:53] All     Let's eat! [13:54] Yuuki     Eat up, girls! [14:02] Waka     I can't tell if it's sweet or spicy... [14:06] Tomoe     It's, um, I mean... [14:09] Ryou     It all tastes terrible. SIGN    Straight down Main Street!? [14:15] Aoi     What did you put in this? [14:17] Yuuki     Um... I didn't want to make it too spicy     just in case anyone didn't like spicy stuff, [14:22] Yuuki     so I added sugar... [14:24] Yuuki     And milk to make it milder,     mint to make it refreshing, [14:28] Yuuki     and for that ethnic touch, cilantro...     all ground up in equal amounts. [14:33] Yuuki     Then, to add nutritional value... [14:36] Waka     We've heard enough, Nozaki-san. [14:37] Ryou     Mint and cilantro. That's why     I couldn't make sense of the smell. [14:41] Waka     You're still eating it,     though, Shinonome-san. [14:44] Ryou     Only to make sure I keep my strength up. [14:49] Tsubasa     Well, I think it works pretty we— [14:53] Yuuki     I'm so very sorry. [14:55] Yoshimi     Hey, this is really good! [14:57] Yuuki     Y-You mean it? [14:59] Yoshimi     Yeah!

[15:13] All     I just needed to get used to it. [15:21] Aoi     There's something missing... [15:24] Yoshimi     Maybe it's that thing the     head priest taught us to use? [15:27] Aoi     Yeah! That's exactly what I need! [15:30] Yoshimi     I sure am grateful for     the head priest's teachings. [15:33] Ryou     Um... Who's this "head priest"     you're talking about? [15:38] Yoshimi     Huh? [15:38] Ryou     Well, you mentioned a head priest... [15:41] Waka     The head priest is... well, the head priest. [15:44] Ryou     Of this temple? [15:45] Tomoe     Yeah. We greeted him on     the first day, remember? [15:49] Yoshimi     Come on, you saw him, didn't you? [15:51] Ryou     No, I didn't... [15:53] Akane     He was there when we were     doing our practice swings, too. [15:57] Ryou     I didn't notice him. [15:59] Tsubasa     Of course he was there! [16:00] Tsubasa     He's short, and he's always smiling. [16:03] Tsubasa     Jeez, come on now! [16:05] Mai     What's the matter? [16:07] Tomoe     Shinonome-san is saying weird things. [16:14] Waka     Nakano-san, could we take a look at that? [16:17] Ayaka     Huh? [16:18] Waka     He should be in this video. [16:23] Tomoe     Um... Huh? [16:26] Ayaka     What? [16:28] Kana     Why... [16:29] Mai     Wh-What's going on here? [16:31] Ryou     There, you see? No head priest     anywhere to be found. [16:38] Priest     You'll find practice difficult tomorrow. [16:47] Yuuki     All I wanted was for our last     dinner here to be enjoyable... [16:55] Yuuki     Huh? Did the power go out? [17:06] Yuuki     Head priest? [17:08] Priest     Now, you mustn't sigh. [17:11] Yuuki     I'm sorry. It slipped out. [17:14] Priest     There's no need to apologize. [17:16] Yuuki     I keep... causing problems for everyone else. [17:21] Yuuki     I'm just... so hopeless. [17:24] Priest     You're being awfully hard on yourself. [17:27] Priest     Come, join me over here. [17:37] Priest     Your friend suggested that     you try pitching, correct? [17:42] Yuuki     Yes... [17:43] Priest     There's nothing wrong with     being concerned about others, [17:46] Priest     and not wanting to hit     anyone with your pitches. [17:49] Priest     But you shouldn't take it to extremes. [17:51] Yuuki     But I don't think I can... [18:01] Priest     Here. Try throwing it. [18:04] Yuuki     B-But... [18:07] Priest     It'll be all right. Come now. [18:10] Yuuki     But if I hit you, it'll hurt a lot. [18:14] Priest     Just pretend I'm a ghost. [18:17] Priest     Then you can throw it without     a care in the world, right? [18:21] Yuuki     A ghost? [18:27] Priest     Yes, that's it! [18:30] Priest     Keep smiling like that, and relax a bit more. [18:35] Priest     The most important thing in     life and baseball is to have fun. [18:39] Yuuki     To have fun?

[20:11] Ryou     I told you! There never     was any head priest here. [20:14] Tsubasa     But there totally was! [20:16] Tsubasa     He was this really sweet old man. [20:19] Kake     I didn't see him, either... [20:21] Kake     What's more, the priest here     is only about 30 years old. [20:27] Ryou     Maybe you were all just seeing things. [20:29] Yoshimi     No way! I-It was... [20:32] Ayaka     It must have been a ghost! [20:34] Akane     Did the head priest's ghost...     show up to try to... scare us? [20:42] Tomoe     That didn't seem to be his intention... [20:44] Tsubasa     He was always smiling,     so I don't think he was evil or anything. [20:59] Tsubasa     Yuuki-chan!

[05:35] Sayaka     Seijo's goal is to reclaim     its standing in girls' baseball. [05:37] Sayaka     Your team doesn't have     that kind of pressure. [05:40] Sayaka     You won the Senior Little League nationals, [05:43] Sayaka     so you should know by now that     idealistic friendships only hold you back. [05:49] Tsubasa     I hear you.

[16:06] Ayaka     We scored the first run last time too,     but they still ended up steamrolling us. [16:10] Waka     Indeed. We need to stay focused.

[01:10] Aoi     Right now, Seijo kinda seems... I dunno...     more flustered than in our practice game. [01:17] Aoi     Jinguji's usually super scary,     but even she looks rattled.

[14:22] Lin     What? You're not? [14:24] Runa     I only came here to see how good they are. [14:27] Runa     I know they're nothing special, though. [14:30] Ryo     You underestimate us. [14:33] Yuzu     Uh, this looks bad... [14:35] Lin     No, this is fantastic. [14:37] Lin     Shinonome-senpai, why don't     you two have a contest? [14:40] Lin     You can play as a pitcher, too, right? [14:43] Ryo     A contest? [14:44] Yuzu     Hang on... [14:45] Runa     Fine with me. [14:46] Yuzu     Huh?! [14:47] Lin     There, you see, Senpai? [14:50] Ryo     All right. It should be     good practice, at least. [14:53] Runa     Didn't Satogahama lose to     Kaio in that tournament? [14:57] Runa     I won't lose to anyone that weak. [15:00] Ryo     You're awfully confident. [15:18] Lin     You'll each get one chance at bat. [15:22] Lin     Okay, Senpai, go ahead. [15:34] Lin     Ball one. [15:40] Runa     She threw it high inside on purpose. [15:46] Lin     Ball two. [15:50] Runa     Next one will be low on the inside corner. [15:57] Lin     Foul! [15:57] Yuzu     That pitch curved, didn't it? [16:00] Lin     I'm impressed you responded so well to that. [16:02] Lin     You're definitely Kusakari Rena's sister. [16:05] Runa     Stop already. Anyone could do that much. [16:08] Lin     Uh-huh... [16:13] Runa     Okay, I get it. Miracle pitches are allowed. [16:16] Lin     Two balls, one strike. [16:18] Yuzu     What? She's gonna throw a miracle pitch? [16:24] Lin     Foul. [16:26] Lin     Two and two. [16:31] Ryo     Your form looks a lot like your sister's. [16:35] Runa     So what? [16:37] Ryo     Nothing. You look alike     because you're sisters. [16:40] Runa     My sister has nothing to do     with this. Just throw it already. (Flashback) [16:45] Rena     All you ever do is copy me. (Flashback) [16:49] Rena     Is being a copy of me enough for you? [16:52] Runa     I'm not the same as you, Onee-chan. [16:54] Runa     I'm not a copy. [17:01] Runa     I'll surpass you. Just you watch. [17:03] Yuzu     She changed her stance. [17:18] Lin     Stri— [17:19] Lin     Ball! Ball! [17:21] Ryo     No, she swung. She struck out swinging. [17:23] Lin     No swing. She stopped the bat. [17:26] Lin     The count is three and two. [17:32] Yuzu     That was amazing. I would've     made that a swing and a miss. [17:37] Runa     That was too close. [17:39] Runa     I will get a hit. I will. [17:42] Runa     Satogahama? [17:44] Runa     Why would I ever go to a school like this? [17:48] Runa     There's no way I can lose. [18:01] Lin     Foul! [18:04] Ryo     You'll be getting those     balls back for us later. [18:07] Runa     Well, stop throwing such wimpy pitches! [18:09] Runa     Compete against me head-on! [18:14] Ryo     What's that about competing? [18:16] Ryo     I'm not competing with you at all. [18:20] Yuzu     I only came here today to observe, [18:22] Yuzu     but this has turned into     something a lot bigger. [18:29] Ryo     I see. So you want to compete that badly? [18:39] Lin     So... what's coming down next? [18:42] Yuzu     Oh, man, I don't think I like this. [18:44] Runa     It's gonna be straight this time. [18:47] Runa     Or is she gonna try to dodge     me with a curveball again? [19:14] Yuzu     I caught it... [19:16] Lin     Strike! You're out! [19:22] Lin     Well done, Senpai. [19:24] Lin     You kept her guessing with     curveballs, and then, in the end... [19:27] Yuzu     Runa-chan... [19:34] Yuzu     Let's just go. [19:35] Runa     Not yet.

[19:54] Lin     But the contest was just one     turn at bat for each of you. [19:57] Runa     It's better than practicing with     just the two of you, isn't it? [20:02] Lin     In that case, if you lose,     you'll join Satogahama. [20:06] Runa     Why should I?! You don't get to decide that! [20:08] Lin     What do you say, Senpai? [20:09] Runa     No way I'll agree to that! [20:10] Ryo     Well, if she insists... [20:12] Lin     Shall we, then? [20:15] Runa     I'm not joining Sato High! I'll get a hit!
