***SIGN*** #08 Grumpy Nakoru
**[02:06] SUIREN**
Another major leaguer has gone missing.
**[02:09] SUIREN**
This is the seventh one.
**[02:11] KIRYU**
The police are investigating the possibility
the disappearances are linked,
**[02:16] KIRYU**
but as of now, they have no leads.
**[02:19] MINA**
I'm worried.
**[02:22] MINA**
*Next up are today's sports results.*
**[02:27] MINA**
* At this morning's international*
* swimming meet held in America,*
**[02:30] MINA**
*Japan managed to come in second overall.*
**[02:33] NAKORU**
Onii-chan, time for dinner.
**[02:37] NAKORU**
Onii-chan.
**[02:40] KANJI**
Why'd you come barging in?
**[02:42] NAKORU**
I've been calling you to dinner.
**[02:45] KANJI**
Okay, okay.
**[02:46] KANJI**
I'm sure it's just mini
hamburgers again, right?
**[02:48] KANJI**
I'm taking a bath first.
**[02:50] NAKORU**
Your food will get cold.
**[02:52] KANJI**
Oh, yeah?
**[02:56] NAKORU**
*What's his problem?*
**[03:04] NAKORU**
Let's see. If I do this, and then this...
***SIGN*** Tsukishiro Mina-chan's Friends
**[03:11] NAKORU**
I knew it.
**[03:26] NAKORU**
Sheesh.
**[03:28] TSUKUDA**
*We're excited to see what Japan does next.*
**[03:41] KANJI**
Hey, Nakoru, aren't you gonna eat with me?
**[03:44] NAKORU**
Do whatever you want.
**[03:46] KANJI**
What's wrong with you?
**[03:48] NAKORU**
I'm not your maid.
**[03:51] KANJI**
What's her problem?
**[04:03] YOSHIMI**
It's crazy! I broke 20,000 visits.
**[04:05] KANJI**
Huh.
**[04:06] YOSHIMI**
I uploaded another photo of Tsukishiro.
**[04:09] KANJI**
What?
**[04:12] YOSHIMI**
Look at her midriff. Isn't it sexy?
**[04:14] KANJI**
I don't care if it's sexy.
**[04:16] KANJI**
I'm a genuine fan of Tsukishiro Mina.
**[04:19] YOSHIMI**
This is incredible.
**[04:20] KANJI**
What?
**[04:31] NAKORU**
My brother sucks.
**[04:34] NAKORU**
Why did it have to be Tsukishiro Mina?
**[04:38] NAKORU**
What do you think, Tsukuda-senpai?
**[04:41] MINA**
I'm sure Tsukishiro Mina is working very hard.
**[04:45] NAKORU**
I don't care about that midriff-baring freak.
**[04:50] NAKORU**
I'm talking about my brother.
**[04:52] MINA**
Kanji?
**[04:56] MINA**
I know he's working hard.
**[04:58] NAKORU**
What?
**[04:59] MINA**
He said the team would definitely
make it to the Koshien next year.
**[05:03] MINA**
The other day, he told me
he wanted to join the major league.
**[05:07] NAKORU**
But he doesn't tell me anything.
**[05:12] NAKORU**
Maybe he doesn't need me anymore.
**[05:17] MINA**
It's not that he's ignoring you.
**[05:21] MINA**
When you're
together all the time,
**[05:23] MINA**
you start to blend in with the air around you.
**[05:25] NAKORU**
That's for married couples.
**[05:27] MINA**
What?
**[05:28] MINA**
Is that right?
**[05:30] MINA**
But I'm sure it's even more true for siblings.
**[05:33] NAKORU**
No.
**[05:36] MINA**
What?
**[05:38] NAKORU**
Me and my brother aren't real siblings.
**[05:42] MINA**
What?!
**[05:48] NAKORU**
My real mom who lives far away asked
**[05:51] NAKORU**
if I wanted to live with her
once I entered high school.
**[05:58] NAKORU**
My brother doesn't know about that, though.
**[06:12] KANJI**
Nakoru!
**[06:13] NAKORU**
What?
**[06:15] KANJI**
Nice catch.
**[06:17] NAKORU**
Sheesh.
**[06:18] KANJI**
I'm tired of eating your
mini hamburgers every day.
**[06:22] KANJI**
Can't we have—
**[06:23] NAKORU**
Then why don't you eat out?
**[06:26] KANJI**
Don't get mad.
**[06:27] KANJI**
When I become a major leaguer,
I'll treat you to a huge hamburger.
**[06:33] KANJI**
What's wrong, Nakoru?
**[06:36] NAKORU**
Does that mean you'll go to America someday?
**[06:39] KANJI**
Well, it's my dream.
**[06:40] NAKORU**
You'll go alone?
**[06:42] KANJI**
What?
**[06:47] NAKORU**
You can't.
**[06:48] KANJI**
What?
**[06:53] NAKORU**
You'll never become a major leaguer.
**[07:07] MINA**
* Nako-chan and Kanji have*
* a pretty complicated relationship.*
**[07:18] BABY**
Not there.
**[07:22] WIFE B**
Did you see that?
**[07:24] WIFE A**
Oh, I saw it.
**[07:25] WIFE B**
Young people these days.
**[07:26] MINA**
There, there. Hello.
**[07:29] WIFE A**
Does Tsukuda-san have a baby?
**[07:31] WIFE B**
There's no telling with kids these days.
**[07:34] WIFE A**
What? It's Mina-chan's?
**[07:38] MINA**
Why did you suddenly show up here?
**[07:41] MINA**
What are you going to do if the neighbors
start spreading weird rumors about me?
**[07:45] BABY**
More importantly, aliens have
been detected in the area.
**[07:48] MINA**
What? Really?
**[07:50] BABY**
It seems connected to
the major leaguer disappearances.
***SIGN*** Getsuyuu
***SIGN*** Tsukudani
**[08:00] MOM**
Some ladies who live in the area
saw Mina carrying a baby.
**[08:04] MOM**
She didn't have it out of wedlock, did she?
**[08:07] DAD**
Wedlock?
**[08:08] MOM**
I'm joking.
**[08:10] MOM**
She was probably babysitting a neighbor's kid.
**[08:13] DAD**
That's not funny.
**[08:15] MOM**
She's always wanted a younger sister.
**[08:18] DAD**
What?
**[08:19] DAD**
A younger sister?
**[08:22] MOM**
She'd actually prefer a younger sister
and an even younger brother.
**[08:29] DAD**
A younger brother, too?
**[08:33] MINA**
Oh, come on. I have
a SpoLuna meeting soon, too.
***SIGN*** Vegetables
**[08:39] MINA**
Jujitsu.
**[08:51] CATCHER**
Nice pitch, Kanji.
**[09:05] (Flashback) NAKORU**
You'll never become a major leaguer.
**[09:09] (Flashback) NAKORU**
You can't even throw a dirty pitch.
**[09:17] NAKORU**
It's his fault for ignoring me recently.
**[09:22] NAKORU**
That's why I said that.
**[09:25] NAKORU**
But that was a really mean thing to say.
**[09:55] KANJI**
Oh, it's just a rabbit.
**[09:58] KANJI**
Wait, rabbits don't make that sound!
**[10:00] KANJI**
Huh?
**[10:03] KANJI**
I must be tired. I've been practicing too much.
**[10:08] BABY**
The aliens were detected around here.
**[10:11] TSUKISHIRO**
This is my school.
**[10:14] YOSHIMI**
It's a bird!
**[10:16] YOSHIMI**
It's a rabbit!
**[10:17] YOSHIMI**
No, it's Tsukishiro Mina!
**[10:20] TSUKISHIRO**
Well, this isn't good.
**[10:22] YOSHIMI**
Hey, wait! That midriff...
**[10:26] KANJI**
An alien? Why are you wearing a skirt?
**[10:29] ALIEN**
Can't you tell? Because I'm here to scout you.
**[10:32] ALIEN**
I want you.
**[10:33] ALIEN**
I want your dirty pitch.
**[10:35] KANJI**
Dirty pitch? But that was...
**[10:37] NAKORU**
Onii-chan.
**[10:39] KANJI**
You idiot, stay away.
**[10:43] NAKORU**
Onii-chan!
**[10:47] NAKORU**
Onii-chan!
**[10:49] TSUKISHIRO**
Nako?
**[10:50] BABY**
It came from over there.
**[10:52] TSUKISHIRO**
Did something happen?
**[10:54] NAKORU**
My brother...
**[10:55] TSUKISHIRO**
What? Kanji?
**[10:58] TSUKISHIRO**
It's okay. He won't bite.
**[11:01] BABY**
It used a teleportation gun.
**[11:04] TSUKISHIRO**
Isn't there anything we can do?
**[11:05] BABY**
If we plug the amount of energy transferred
to virtual space into the formula,
**[11:10] BABY**
we can determine where he was sent.
**[11:13] TSUKISHIRO**
Whatever. Just do it quickly.
**[11:15] NAKORU**
Where's my brother?
**[11:16] TSUKISHIRO**
It's okay. we'll save Kanji—
**[11:17] TSUKISHIRO**
I mean, we'll save your brother.
**[11:20] BABY**
Okay. Great news.
**[11:23] BABY**
He was sent someplace on Earth.
**[11:24] BABY**
It's a bit far from here, though.
**[11:25] TSUKISHIRO**
I'll go.
**[11:26] NAKORU**
Wait.
**[11:28] NAKORU**
Tsukishiro Mina-san, take me with you.
**[11:30] BABY**
You can't. It's too dangerous.
**[11:34] NAKORU**
I'm going to bring my brother back.
**[11:44] TSUKISHIRO**
Okay. Let's go together.
**[11:48] NAKORU**
Yeah.
**[12:01] TSUKISHIRO**
Are you okay?
**[12:03] NAKORU**
Yeah, I'm fine. Thank you.
**[12:06] TSUKISHIRO**
What?
**[12:07] NAKORU**
For bringing me with you.
**[12:08] TSUKISHIRO**
Sure.
**[12:10] NAKORU**
Your crop top is cute.
**[12:16] NAKORU**
*Hang in there, Onii-chan.*
**[12:19] NAKORU**
*I'm on my way.*
**[12:49] KANJI**
Hey, where are we?
**[12:52] KANJI**
Is this heaven?
**[12:54] ALIEN**
Would you like some ice?
**[12:59] PLAYER**
Oh, yes.
**[13:00] KANJI**
That's...
**[13:03] PLAYER**
One, two, three, four.
**[13:06] KANJI**
They're major leaguers.
**[13:08] KANJI**
They're all the famous missing players.
**[13:11] ALIEN**
That's right, Hazemi Kanji.
**[13:13] KANJI**
You're that scout.
**[13:15] ALIEN**
I'm sorry we had to bring you here by force.
**[13:18] ALIEN**
We created an astral major league because
we love Earth's civilization so much.
**[13:24] KANJI**
An astral major league?
**[13:25] ALIEN**
Yes. However, we lack players.
**[13:29] ALIEN**
So we scouted them by force
and had them sign contracts.
**[13:34] ALIEN**
With your dirty pitch,
this team will be perfect.
**[13:37] KANJI**
What?
**[13:38] ALIEN**
Please. We'd like you to become
the star player of our dream team.
**[13:42] KANJI**
With those major leaguers?
**[13:43] ALIEN**
Our astral major league
is still unknown on Earth.
**[13:47] ALIEN**
But soon we'll catch up
in terms of popularity and skill.
**[13:50] ALIEN**
You'll become a famous player.
**[13:54] KANJI**
If I become an astral major leaguer,
will I get to meet Tsukishiro Mina?
**[13:59] ALIEN**
Tsukishiro Mina, huh?
**[14:02] KANJI**
I mean, I'm genuinely a fan of hers.
**[14:07] ALIEN**
Baseball players
and idols hook up all the time.
**[14:11] KANJI**
What?
**[14:12] ALIEN**
You might even get to date her—
or even marry her.
**[14:17] KANJI**
What?!
**[14:19] KANJI**
Marry her?
**[14:24] ALIEN**
Anyway, here's your contract.
**[14:27] ALIEN**
Sign here, please.
**[14:30] KANJI**
I can become an astral major leaguer...
**[14:33] KANJI**
And marry Tsukishiro Mina...
**[14:37] ALIEN**
Marry... marry...
**[14:42] KANJI**
I won't do it.
**[14:43] ALIEN**
What?
**[14:46] KANJI**
The astral major league is played
on planets other than Earth, right?
**[14:50] KANJI**
I wouldn't be able to eat Nakoru's
mini hamburgers anymore.
**[14:54] ALIEN**
Mini hamburgers?
**[14:56] KANJI**
Yeah. I won't do it.
**[14:57] KANJI**
Could you send me back to where you found me?
**[15:00] ALIEN**
No. We need your dirty pitch.
**[15:03] KANJI**
What are you doing? Stop!
**[15:07] NAKORU**
Onii-chan?
**[15:08] BABY**
That's an Abductionite.
**[15:10] TSUKISHIRO**
Get your hands off Kanji, Abductionite!
**[15:14] ALIEN**
My dream team, drive off the intruders!
**[15:21] TSUKISHIRO**
Huh? Yikes!
**[15:25] TSUKISHIRO**
They're just ordinary people being controlled.
**[15:28] TSUKISHIRO**
Is running from them my only option?
**[15:30] ALIEN**
Now sign the contract.
**[15:31] KANJI**
Stop!
**[15:33] ALIEN**
Then we can control you, too.
**[15:36] NAKORU**
Onii-chan!
**[15:37] NAKORU**
You little...
**[15:39] ALIEN**
Back off!
**[15:42] NAKORU**
No! Don't touch my brother!
**[15:47] NAKORU**
Ouch...
**[15:54] NAKORU**
Jujitsu.

**[17:44] MINAZUKI**
What's going on?
**[17:45] BABY**
Ah, Minazuki Mina.
**[17:47] MINAZUKI**
What? I'm Minazuki Mina?
**[17:50] KANJI**
Stop!
**[17:52] MINAZUKI**
I need to save my brother.
**[17:54] MINAZUKI**
Darn you!
**[17:56] ALIEN**
Damn you, Minas!
**[17:57] ALIEN**
I'll teleport you to the edges of the universe!
**[18:00] KANJI**
Watch out, Mina!
**[18:04] ALIEN**
What?
**[18:19] ALIEN**
What kind of wimpy straight ball is this?
**[18:20] ALIEN**
That's not a dirty pitch!
**[18:22] KANJI**
Shut up!
**[18:26] MINAZUKI**
Mini Tomato Boom Boom!
**[18:42] TSUKISHIRO**
Huh? What?
**[18:44] TSUKISHIRO**
I guess Tsukishiro Mina of the Rabbit Force
**[18:47] TSUKISHIRO**
is placing you under arrest for violating
the Astral Civilization Non-intervention Policy.
**[18:52] TSUKISHIRO**
Kapow.
**[18:53] MINAZUKI**
Onii-chan. Onii-chan.
**[18:57] KANJI**
I don't know which Mina-san you are,
but you're cuter than Tsukishiro Mina.
**[19:04] MINAZUKI**
Onii-chan.
**[19:06] BABY**
Your mother was the previous Minazuki Mina.
**[19:10] MINAZUKI**
My mom was?
**[19:11] BABY**
She had you after retiring
from the Rabbit Force.
**[19:16] BABY**
Mina powers are passed down to their
daughters, and the mother loses her power.
**[19:21] BABY**
The previous Mina was being
hunted down by vengeful aliens
**[19:25] BABY**
and was forced to go into hiding.
**[19:29] MINAZUKI**
So that's why Mom left me with
my current dad and went far away.
**[19:36] TSUKISHIRO**
Does that mean my mom was a Mina, too?
**[19:40] TSUKISHIRO**
SpoLuna is starting.
**[19:48] MINA**
I'm sorry!
**[19:50] KATO D**
Tsukuda, we go live in three minutes!
**[19:53] MINA**
Here. Tsukishiro Mina-san gave this to me.
**[19:56] KATO D**
What?
**[19:57] MINA**
It's exclusive video of Abductionites.
**[20:01] KATO D**
Suzuki, we've got a new top story!
**[20:04] AD SUZUKI**
Yes, sir!
**[20:13] SUIREN**
This just in.
**[20:16] SUIREN**
The recent major leaguer
disappearances have been solved.
**[20:27] NAKORU**
*Sorry, Mom.*
**[20:29] NAKORU**
* I'm going to keep living here*
* even after I enter high school.*
**[20:33] NAKORU**
*I love you, but I'm my brother's little sister.*
**[20:43] NAKORU**
You're hopeless.
**[20:45] KANJI**
Mini hamburgers...
**[20:50] NAKORU**
You're so hopeless. I'll make some right now.
**[21:08] TSUKUDA**
*My mom was the previous Tsukishiro Mina.*
**[21:10] TSUKUDA**
*I find that hard to believe.*
**[21:13] MUTSUMUNE**
What? Why?
**[21:16] AD SUZUKI**
Kato-san, we're the only ones
covering the major leaguer kidnappings.
**[21:21] AD SUZUKI**
They're giving us an award.
**[21:23] KATO D**
Good! It was our shrewd actions
that led to this triumph!
**[21:27] TSUKUDA**
My, my.
**[21:28] KATO D**
Cheers!
**[21:28] ALL**
Cheers!
**[21:30] MUTSUMUNE**
I'm not injured today!
**[21:31] MUTSUMUNE**
Yes! Cheers!
**[21:36] SHIRAHIME**
My, my.
**[21:36] MINA**
Mutsumune-san!
**[21:38] HAZUKI**
She's got it rough.
**[21:39] KATO D**
Mucchi, are you okay?
**[21:41] AD SUZUKI**
Call an ambulance!
**[21:43] KATO D**
Seriously? What a pain in the rear.
**[23:08] ALIEN**
*Minas, I challenge you to ping pong.*
**[23:11] ALIEN**
* If you lose, I will reveal*
* your embarrassing secrets.*
**[23:15] OTSUKI**
* You're a Rallyan, a race of*
* ping pong-loving aliens.*
**[23:17] TSUKUDA**
*He seems strong.*
**[23:19] YUU**
* But who would accept your challenge*
* after that elaborate scheme?*
**[23:23] TSUKUDA**
*I'll do it.*
**[23:24] TSUKUDA**
*I need to get back to Earth soon for work.*
**[23:26] MINA**
*In that case, let me handle this.*
**[23:28] TSUKUDA**
* Next time on Getsumento Heiki Mina,*
* "Deathmatch at One Thousand Kilometers."*
**[23:32] OTSUKI**
* Tsukishiro, we might really be*

**[23:36] TSUKUDA**
*Yikes.*
