[00:09] Utaemon
    Aw, c'mon, that was in the zone.

    I said "ball"!

[00:22] Sukeroku

[00:26] Yuzu
    Forget it! I quit!
[00:28] Utaemon
    What? Why?
[00:30] Yuzu
    Because it's no fun!
[00:32] Raizo
    Hey, throw it lower for her.
[00:35] Utaemon
    Huh?
[00:36] Sukeroku
    Just do it!
[00:37] Utaemon
    Boo.
[00:40] Sukeroku
    Yuzu.
[00:41] Sukeroku
    Keep your eye on the ball. Don't be scared.
[00:44] Yuzu
    If it hits me, it'll hurt.
[00:46] Sukeroku
    But it's a great feeling when you hit it.
[00:49] Yuzu
    I can't hit it.
[00:51] Utaemon
    Okay, here comes my Super Micro Curveball!
[00:55] Raizo
    What the heck is that?
[00:57] Sukeroku
    Watch the ball.
[00:58] Utaemon
    Go!
[01:05] Sukeroku
    Yuzu, run!

[06:27] Rena
    Runa, listen to me.
[06:31] Rena
    You shouldn't come to Kaio.
[06:34] Runa
    Huh? What do you mean by that?
[06:37] Rena
    Exactly what I said.
[06:39] Rena
    If you want to keep playing baseball,
    go to a different high school.
[06:42] Runa
    Why? I want to play with you at Kaio!
[06:45] Rena
    And I'm saying you can't.

    Huh?

    A copy? What does that mean?
[06:59] Rena
    You need to broaden your horizons.
[07:02] Rena
    There are plenty of good

[07:07] Rena
    Let's see... How about Satogahama High,

[07:13] Runa
    No way! Why should I have to go there?

    There's nothing special about that school!
[07:18] Runa
    It's on a totally different level
    than Kaio, and the environment—

    If that's what you think,
    go check it out for yourself.

    That's the kind of thing
    you need to do more of.

[12:09] Yuzu
    Why did I, huh?
[12:15] Yuzu
    Actually... I was thinking
    about quitting baseball.
[12:20] Yuzu
    I'm just not that good at it,
    so I figured enough was enough.
[12:25] Yuzu
    But I was looking into Satogahama,
    and I guess it just caught my interest.
[12:30] Yuzu
    I wonder why...
[12:34] Runa
    You probably thought you could
    get by on a newly formed team.
[12:39] Yuzu
    Well, in any case, I thought I'd come take a look.
[12:41] Yuzu
    It might help me figure out what to do. Yeah.
[12:47] Yuzu
    We're finally here! But...
[12:51] Yuzu

    Who are you two?
[13:10] Yuzu
    Um... We're here to observe.
[13:13] Ryo
    Oh. Sorry, the team's on break today.
[13:20] Ryo
    Well, we already have one
    person here to observe,
[13:22] Ryo
    so you can watch too if you don't
    mind that it'll be a free practice.
[13:37] Lin
    Shinonome-senpai here helped me out when
    we were at Kuramoto Chuo Senior together.
[13:42] Lin
    I'm Lin Lihua.
[13:44] Runa
    You're trying to get into Satogahama?
[13:46] Lin
    Yes.
[13:47] Lin
    Baseball is science.
[13:49] Lin

    lead a team to victory.
[13:52] Lin
    I plan to join the team as a manager
[13:54] Lin
    and guide this team from a
    sports science perspective.
[13:59] Yuzu
    Sports science?
[14:01] Lin
    This is a surprise, though.
[14:02] Lin
    I never thought I'd see the younger sister
    of Kaio's captain, Kusakari Rena, here.
[14:07] Ryo
    Her younger sister?
[14:09] Lin
    Even with that jacket on, I can tell.
[14:11] Lin
    Your latissimus dorsi is magnificent,
    and your upper arms are perfectly lean.
[14:15] Lin
    If you're like this now, I can't wait
    to see you after you join the team.
[14:17] Runa
    Stop that!
[14:19] Runa
    Don't just assume things.
    I'm not joining Satogahama.
[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.
[19:38] Runa
    I can't leave yet.
[19:47] Runa
    If you want to leave, go by yourself.
[19:52] Runa
    One more time. I want to go again.
[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!
