Oh, here they all are.

Hm, where's my seat?

Hey!
**[02:59] Kam**
Are you a new student?!
**[03:00] Nish**
Oh, hey, pal. Where's my class sitting?
I don't know which class I'm in yet.
**[03:04] Kam**
Wh-What?! First, you waltz in late,
and then you address a teacher like that?!
**[03:10] Nish**
Oh, you're a teacher? My bad, man.
**[03:13] Kam**
What's your name?
**[03:14] Kam**
How did a boy like you manage to get
into this prestigious school? Answer me!
**[03:18] Kum**
Kamei-sensei!
**[03:20] Kum**
Your seat is in the middle
of the first row! Hurry!
**[03:23] Nish**
'Kay, gotcha. Thanks a bunch.
**[03:25] Kam**
What's wrong with that student?!
No way in hell is he right for this school...
**[03:29] Kum**
He got in on a sports scholarship.
**[03:33] Kam**
A sports scholarship?
**[03:34] Kum**
He's here to bolster the baseball team
and its depleted roster.

Hey, Mutsuko, are you sure you wanna
let those guys play on our field?
**[04:57] Mut**
What?
**[05:01] Nish**
Give us a grounder!
**[05:05] Nish**
Idiot!
**[05:14] Kan**
Hey, you! What are you doing?!
**[05:17] Kan**
We don't maintain this field so
you can mess it up with your games!
**[05:20] Kan**
This field's reserved for the team!
**[05:23] Chi**
For the team, you say?
**[05:24] Chi**
Try again. This is a *baseball* field.
**[05:28] Chi**
You girls are on the softball team, right?
**[05:31] Mut**
We're the baseball team.
**[05:35] Mut**
You got a problem with
girls playing baseball?
**[05:38] Nish**
You've got to be kidding me.
**[05:40] Nish**
I heard there were only six players left on
the team after the majority quit last year,
**[05:45] Nish**
but I didn't expect the Fuurin baseball team
to be a straight-up girls' side.
**[05:50] Nish**
No wonder they went out and headhunted
the best players from the Nanyou Lions.
**[05:58] Tao**
Nanyou? That's a super-strong club.
**[06:00] Yayo**
If it's the *Lions*...
**[06:02] Kan**
S-So *you're* the new recruits
everyone's talking about?
**[06:05] Nish**
Exactly. We all got sports scholarships
to come to this weak school.
**[06:11] Nish**
Good for you, huh? Your school
just became a powerhouse overnight.
**[06:16] Nish**
If you girls are lucky, you might
play outfield, or become managers.
**[06:19] Kan**
No way! I joined because
I thought I'd get to play in games!
**[06:23] Kan**
I won't let first-years hijack our team!
**[06:26] Ume**
Where's our team room?
**[06:28] Chi**
Let's get changed and start practice.
**[06:35] Mut**
Hold on.
**[06:36] Mut**
You haven't done the paperwork to join,
and I haven't given permission for anything.
**[06:41] Nish**
Permission? And who the
hell do you think *you* are?
**[06:44] Mut**
I'm Sakura Mutsuko, the vice-captain.
**[06:47] Mut**
Besides, didn't they teach the Nanyou Lions
how to speak to senior players politely?
**[06:53] Mut**
Manners aren't just for
the baseball field, either...
**[06:56] Tao**
Good job!
**[06:59] Nish**
Don't touch me! You're just the vice-captain!
**[07:02] Nish**
Wait, does this mean the captain's
a girl, too? Gimme a break...

**[07:18] Dai**
Are you guys actually interested
in joining the baseball team?
**[07:21] Nish**
So that's the team room.
**[07:23] Dai**
My name's Shigeno Daigo! I'm in Class 2-C,
and I'm captain of the Fuurin baseball team...
**[07:28] Dai**
Oh, I guess you don't need
to know what class I'm in.
**[07:31] Dai**
Anyone interested in joining,
write your name and class here.
**[07:34] Dai**
And if you put down any previous
experience, and the position you're best at...
**[07:38] Dai**
If you don't have one,
just say where you want to—
**[07:41] Chi**
We're changing, so don't open the door.
**[07:44] Dai**
Huh?
**[07:48] Guy**
Dude, seriously? First, it's all girls,
then the captain comes out and he's a shrimp!
**[07:54] Chi**
This team's so weak,
it could be in an anime.
**[07:57] Guy**
By the way, Nishina,
when's Coach gonna get here?
**[08:00] Nish**
He said he had to wrap
stuff up with the Lions first.
**[08:03] Nish**
It'll be another week or so.
**[08:07] Dai**
Sports scholarships?
**[08:08] Mut**
Yes, all five of them played
for the Nanyou Lions.
**[08:11] Dai**
Nanyou?! That famous school?
**[08:13] Kan**
Yeah! That's why they're so full of themselves
and act like they own the place!
**[08:17] Yayo**
They said us girls should become managers.
**[08:19] Tao**
They think we stink.
**[08:22] Mut**
First impressions are key, Daigo!
They didn't show us any respect.
**[08:27] Mut**
As captain, you need to take them to task!
**[08:31] Nish**
All right, let's do this!
**[08:33] All**
Yeah!
**[08:33] All**
Let's go!
**[08:35] Nish**
Okay, start off with
five laps of base running!
**[08:37] Nish**
And then Warm-up A!
**[08:39] All**
Roger!
**[08:41] Mut**
Hey! Why didn't you say anything?!
**[08:44] Mut**
They just started practice
without even saying a word!
**[08:52] Dai**
Mutsuko. Please take care of
anyone else who shows up to join.
**[08:56] Mut**
Huh? Ah, right. Go give 'em
a dressing-down, captain!
**[09:00] Dai**
No. I'm going to go join in with their routine.
**[09:07] Kan**
What the hell?
**[09:07] Mut**
Daigo!
**[09:08] Yayo**
Well, I didn't expect much.
**[09:09] Tao**
I mean, Daigo confronting
guys like that? Please.
**[09:13] Yayo**
It's stuff like this that makes them cocky.
**[09:15] Kan**
"I'll be your big sis"?
**[09:17] Mut**
They didn't even look at that.
**[09:19] Yayo**
Oh, true.
**[09:20] Tao**
Anyway, up to now, it's just been us,
so it didn't matter who we had as captain.
**[09:26] Tao**
But maybe it's time we rethought
who fills that role. Right, Mutsuko?
**[09:41] Dai**
Yay, I win! I did it! Huh?
**[09:46] Nis**
Moron. It wasn't a race.
**[09:48] Chi**
And anyway, don't just join in with our warm-up.
**[09:51] Dai**
Oh, I'm sorry. I just wanted to experience
what a Nanyou Lions training session is like.
**[09:55] Dai**
Is it okay if I join in?
**[09:58] Chi**
What?
**[09:59] Dai**
I feel like I'd learn a lot from warm-up
routines they do in strong clubs.
**[10:03] Guy**
We don't do anything special.
**[10:06] Dai**
That's fine, too!
**[10:08] Dai**
If I train with you guys,
I'll see how good you are.
**[10:17] Dai**
Ow.
**[10:18] Dai**
What was that for?!
**[10:21] Nish**
So you finally snapped, Captain Shrimpy.
**[10:24] Nish**
I can't stand your fake friendliness
when us first-years are mocking you.
**[10:29] Nish**
See how good we are, my ass! Don't try
to be the bigger person when you suck!
**[10:32] Nish**
When we were with the Lions,
skill was king! Age didn't matter!
**[10:37] Nish**
Once you're on the field,
the best player calls the shots!
**[10:41] Mut**
Hey! What are you doing?!
**[10:43] Mut**
Did they do something?
**[10:44] Dai**
No.
**[10:45] Mut**
Listen up!
**[10:46] Mut**
Once Coach and some useful new
players come in, you'll be benched!
**[10:51] Mut**
If you don't want first-years talking
to you like they're on your level,
**[10:54] Mut**
maybe you should just quit, Mr. *Senior*.
**[10:59] Mut**
All right, time for some stretches!
**[11:01] All**
Okay!
**[11:03] Dai**
I agree!
**[11:06] Dai**
Just because someone's born a year earlier
**[11:08] Dai**
doesn't mean you should kowtow to them
if they have no skill and zero drive.
**[11:12] Dai**
Like you say, on the field,
skill's the thing that matters.
**[11:16] Dai**
So we'll see where everyone's at.
**[11:18] Dai**
It's not fair to talk someone down
without even knowing their skill level.
**[11:21] Nis**
Interesting. Then, let's see
what "skills" you got, shall we?
**[11:26] Nis**
If you have any, that is.
**[11:32] Dai**
Since we're showing off our skills,
our only option is to play a game.
**[11:38] All**
A game?!
**[11:39] Mut**
Are you serious, Daigo?!
**[11:42] Dai**
Totally.
**[12:06] Nis**
If this is all of you, let's begin already.
**[12:08] Dai**
Yeah, let's get to it.
**[12:10] Nis**
I can only see a future where you guys are
packing your bags, bawling your eyes out.
**[12:17] Nis**
All right! Team First-Years will bat last.
The girls' team will bat first.
**[12:22] Kan**
Hey! We're not just girls!
Call us Team Upperclassmen!
**[12:26] Kan**
That guy's so damn irritating...
**[12:29] Mut**
Is this really wise?
**[12:32] Mut**
If we lose, they'll mock us for all eternity.
**[12:37] Dai**
We've got no choice.
They said skill decides everything.
**[12:40] Dai**
Unless we show them our skills and
beat them, they won't listen to us.
**[12:46] Mut**
But they're ex-Lions. *Lions*!
**[12:48] Dai**
It's fine, it's fine.
**[12:50] Dai**
No matter how good their club was,
they were grade schoolers up until recently.
**[12:54] Dai**
If you consider how much progress
we made this year, we'll have no—
**[13:06] Yayo**
Ah...
**[13:07] Tao**
I guess that explains the attitude.
**[13:11] Nis**
All right, we're ready. Play ball!
**[13:18] Nis**
Don't start crying now.

taken the mound in a game before!

No need to hold back! Make 'em afraid!

Yeah!
**[15:51] Tan**
Timeout!
**[15:52] Tan**
Timeout! Timeout!
**[15:54] Tan**
It's hard playing without an umpire.
**[15:57] Tan**
I can take over.
**[15:58] Guy**
Who's this old geezer?
**[16:01] Tan**
I'm a third-year, president of the student
council, and a member of this team!
**[16:05] Tan**
And you!
**[16:06] Nish**
A third-year?
**[16:06] Tan**
What kind of attitude is that?!
**[16:07] Chi**
So he's their only actual senior left?
**[16:07] Tan**
You better watch your mouth! You listening?

Play!

Hey, you can close your eyes!
It's like a bonus stage!

**[16:58] Chi**
All right!

Damn!
**[17:01] Kan**
Don't worry!
**[17:01] Tao**
You don't say it to yourself!
**[17:03] Nis**
Follow it up!
**[17:04] Dai**
Sawa-san, you don't have to stick to first!
**[17:07] Dai**
The next one's going left,
so second'll be wide open.
**[17:10] Yayo**
'Kay.
**[17:12] Ume**
Seriously?
**[17:12] Chi**
That's a free steal for the runner!
**[17:16] Tan**
Play!
**[17:18] Guy**
Well, I won't say no to that.
**[17:22] Nis**
Back!
**[17:25] Yayo**
Welcome home, master.
**[17:28] Tan**
Out!
**[17:30] Mut**
One out! One out!
**[17:32] Chi**
What are you doing,
falling for a pickoff play?!
**[17:36] Guy**
Sorry.
**[17:37] Nis**
* They pretended not to care about first*
* and secretly put out a sign.*
**[17:41] Nis**
*That rat likes to play dirty, huh?*
**[17:45] Kit**
That's there to be hit!
**[17:53] Tan**
Safe!
**[17:54] Tan**
Yeah!
**[17:55] Chi**
Wait, he only just made it with that hit?
**[17:58] Chi**
That shortstop is good.
**[18:03] Dai**
One out! One out!
**[18:07] Nis**
I thought, with all these girls, you were
just playing at being a baseball team,
**[18:10] Nis**
but you're actually not horrible.
**[18:12] Dai**
Oh? Should we stop, then?
**[18:14] Dai**
If you show your seniors some respect,
we won't insist on finishing this game.
**[18:18] Nis**
Shut your yap.
**[18:19] Nis**
We're going to build the strongest Fuurin
team ever seen, starting with our year!
**[18:25] Nis**
You annoying upperclassmen
are just in our way!
**[18:48] Tan**
Out! Three outs! Change sides!
**[18:51] All**
Yeah! Nice double play!
**[18:53] All**
Let's keep it up!
**[18:54] ---**
Looking good!
**[18:55] Dai**
You're probably wondering why you're not
getting any good hits. I'll explain it to you.
**[19:01] Dai**
I can tell just by looking
that you're all good.
**[19:04] Dai**
But up until recently,
you've been playing little league.
**[19:07] Dai**
The biggest difference between
little league and middle school baseball...
**[19:11] Dai**
The thing you guys just can't deal with...
**[19:15] Dai**
...is breaking balls.
**[19:20] Txt**
Upperclassmen
**[19:20] Txt**
Brats
**[19:20] All**
You got this!
**[19:24] Nis**
*Breaking balls?*
**[19:26] Dai**
All right, bring it!
**[19:28] All**
Knock it out of the park, Daigo!
**[19:30] All**
This inning's ours!
**[19:32] Nis**
*These guys... are treating me like a child!*
**[19:38] Tan**
Ball!
**[19:41] Nis**
* I don't need you to tell me there are breaking*
* balls in middle school! I already know!*
**[19:51] Yayo**
Oh my.
**[19:52] Tao**
What happened?
**[19:52] Chi**
What the hell?
**[19:55] Dai**
You don't have to try so hard
to throw a breaking ball.
**[19:59] Dai**
You're probably not used to the
balls we use in middle school yet,
**[20:02] Dai**
and I guess you only practiced pitching
breaking balls for fun, right?
**[20:06] Dai**
Don't worry about that stuff.
Just show me what you're good at.
**[20:10] Dai**
I wanna see if you've got the
firepower to become our ace.
**[20:14] Nis**
*How dare you talk down to me?!*
**[20:17] Nis**
*Who do you think I am, shrimp?!*
**[20:19] Tan**
Ball!
**[20:20] Dai**
Too much power means
you can't swing your arm.
**[20:22] Dai**
Don't rush the pitch.
**[20:26] Nis**
*Shut up!*
**[20:42] Chi**
Seriously? That's an
inside-the-park home run, isn't it?
**[20:44] Dai**
What are you *doing*, shortstop?! Go get it!
**[20:49] Dai**
You've got to be kidding me!
**[20:50] Dai**
Are you like this in all your games?!
**[20:53] Dai**
Disrespect us all you want, but I will
not tolerate you disrespecting baseball!
**[21:01] Tao**
That was impressive.
**[21:03] Mut**
Daigo...
**[21:08] Dai**
So what shall we do? Want to continue?
**[21:11] Dai**
With your experience,
you must have noticed by now.
**[21:14] Dai**
You prejudged us and assumed we sucked.
**[21:18] Dai**
We don't have the numbers, but our
third-years last year were pretty good,
**[21:23] Dai**
and together with our coach,
they taught us a lot.
**[21:25] Dai**
And while you dismissed them
as losers because they're girls,
**[21:28] Dai**
their training regime was the same
as the boys the entire time.
**[21:31] Dai**
They can go toe-to-toe with your average boy.
**[21:34] Dai**
Especially the two in the middle,
Tao and Sawa-san,
**[21:37] Dai**
who were regulars for Yokohama Little,
and made it to Nationals.
**[21:42] Chi**
Yokohama Little?!
**[21:50] Dai**
Nishina, you could make a good pitcher.
**[21:52] Dai**
The rest of you looked good out there, too.
**[21:57] Dai**
I won't tell you to kowtow
to us upperclassmen,
**[22:00] Dai**
nor do I want to us to pretend
we're the best of friends.
**[22:03] Dai**
The more we compete with each other,
the stronger this team will get.
**[22:07] Dai**
This battle between us isn't over.
It's only just begun.
**[22:12] Dai**
Welcome to the Fuurin baseball team.
**[24:00] Dai**
All right! Along with Nishina and his gang,
we got two more girls from Yokohama Little!
**[24:06] Dai**
The new team's finally coming together!
**[24:09] Mut**
Daigo, I'm not playing pitcher anymore!
**[24:11] Dai**
Huh? Why are you all mad, Mutsuko?
**[24:13] Mut**
It's these new members!
I don't think I can go on like this!
**[24:17] Dai**
Hey, come on...
**[24:19] Mut**
Next time: "That Catcher's Got a Sharp Tongue."
***SIGN*** That Catcher's Got a Sharp Tongue
**[24:22] Dai**
Run to the stage of your dreams!
