[04:39] Narrator     This is Takumi Nishimura, [04:41] Narrator     a 10th grader at Seinan High School,     and their baseball team's ace. SIGN    Takumi SIGN    Nishimura [04:46] Touma     It was a good game. SIGN    Toushu     Steamrolls Yet     Another Team [04:48] Touma     I watched it on TV. [04:49] Nishimura     Some "good game." [04:51] Nishimura     Hiroki Mita only pitched the last inning.     Who wants to play a final against relievers? [04:57] Touma     Still, Toushu's something else. Even their     #2 and #3 pitchers are on another level. [05:02] Nishimura     Exactly! [05:04] Nishimura     They coulda run those guys in     the semifinal against Meisei! [05:09] Nishimura     So why... [05:11] Nishimura     Why'd they have their ace pitching     instead? And all 14 innings at that! [05:15] Touma     How should I know? [05:17] Nishimura     I'd have pitched way better     if I'd been up against their ace. [05:21] Touma     Yeah, sure. [05:23] Nishimura     Plus...

[05:34] Nishimura     How was I supposed to give     my all in a match like that?! [05:38] Touma     You sure can run your mouth     first thing in the morning. [05:41] Nishimura     It's way past first thing! [05:43] Otomi     Yeah, it's almost noon. [05:46] Touma     What's that? [05:48] Otomi     Your friend brought it, Tou. [05:52] Touma     Any for me? [05:53] Nishimura     Heck no. [05:55] Touma     What the hell? [05:57] Touma     And you! [05:58] Touma     Don't let him into the house     just 'cause he brought cake! [06:01] Nishimura     Leave her alone.      Otomi did nothing wrong. [06:04] Touma     Can it! SIGN    Punch [06:05] Touma     Quit blaming others for you losing      first thing in the morning! [06:09] Nishimura     It's not first thing! [06:10] Touma     I already lost sleep 'cause of nightmares     about my wild throw losing that match! [06:15] Nishimura     Seriously, do you know what time it is?! [06:29] Souichirou     More club hopefuls? [06:34] Haruka     You're here early. I thought     practice wasn't until this afternoon. [06:37] Souichirou     I saw you pulling weeds     from our balcony at home. [06:43] Haruka     Just trying to make up for the time I spent     doing basically nothing with a broken arm. [06:48] Souichirou     You going back to the     rhythmic gymnastics club? [06:51] Haruka     I dunno. The advisor had these     weirdly high expectations for me. [06:58] Souichirou     Nothing weird about     those high expectations. [07:02] Haruka     Well, either way, it's nothing to worry about. [07:06] Haruka     We've got plenty of     female caretaker applicants. [07:09] Souichirou     A bunch of trend chasers who don't     know the first thing about baseball, [07:13] Souichirou     but wanna join because     of all the coverage, yeah? [07:15] Haruka     Don't underestimate     modern baseball fangirls. [07:19] Haruka     It's the boys that are the bigger problem. [07:22] Haruka     Because the team got such huge     press coverage lots of days in a row, [07:26] Haruka     we've got a bunch of shallow guys applying [07:28] Haruka     in the hopes that joining Meisei's     baseball team will get them girls. [07:33] Souichirou     Yup, that's a rogues' gallery of      shallow guys from each class. [07:37] Haruka     Besides, anyone who's spent the year up to now      bumming around instead of joining a club [07:41] Haruka     is unlikely to be of any help to the team. [07:44] Souichirou     There's one guy here who     doesn't fit that description. [07:48] Souichirou     But... [07:50] Haruka     But? SIGN    Baseball Club Application SIGN    Name: SIGN     Kenji     Nishiki SIGN    Class: [07:52] Souichirou     He might be trouble. [07:55] Otomi     Oh? [07:57] Otomi     Sou and Haruka meeting up      on the baseball field? [08:01] Otomi     Yes, I see. [08:03] Otomi     That's why he was in such a rush     to get dressed and go out earlier. [08:08] Otomi     He might just be serious about this one. [08:11] Touma     He's just skirt-chasing like always. [08:15] Otomi     But he's been turning down invitations     from all his other lady-friends lately. [08:20] Touma     Of course he has. [08:22] Touma     He's been busy with tournament stuff. [08:26] Nishimura     Hey, can I borrow those? [08:28] Otomi     Oh, uh, sure. [08:30] Nishimura     Let's have a look. [08:34] Nishimura     Huh? [08:35] Nishimura     Isn't that your girlfriend? [08:42] Nishimura     Yeah, our Seinan bus picked you guys up      while you were on a date that time, right? [08:47] Touma     Like I said, we were just out on a walk     and hit a run of bad luck. [08:52] Otomi     A love triangle involving the beautiful     team caretaker and the sibling battery... [08:57] Touma     The phone's ringing, Otomi. [08:59] Otomi     Yeah, yeah. [09:02] Otomi     Hello? [09:05] Otomi     Oh? Mom? [09:10] Otomi     What? [09:12] Otomi     Right. [09:15] Otomi     Okay. Got it. [09:17] Otomi     See you. [09:20] Touma     What's up? [09:23] Otomi     Mom was in a traffic accident. [09:25] Otomi     She's gonna be at the hospital for a while,     so she said we have to handle our own lunch. [09:30] Touma     A traffic accident? [09:32] Otomi     Yeah, but it didn't sound too serious. [09:35] Otomi     She sounded upbeat. [09:37] Nishimura     Don't underestimate traffic accidents. [09:40] Nishimura     Do you know what hospital she's at? [09:42] Otomi     Yeah. [09:44] Nishimura     You should go there right away. [09:46] Otomi     Oh, but she said it wasn't serious     and that we shouldn't worry. [09:50] Nishimura     Five years ago, my aunt said     it wasn't serious and came home, [09:53] Nishimura     then died suddenly the next day. [09:56] Nishimura     You can get hit in places and not know     anything's wrong. So when in a traffic accident... [10:01] Nishimura     you should get a full run of tests! [10:04] Nishimura     Get to the hospital, both of you! [10:05] Otomi     Oh, but we're waiting for a package... [10:09] Nishimura     I'll take care of that for you! [10:12] Nishimura     Just get going! [10:19] Touma     Jeez... [10:21] Touma     Okay, fine. [10:23] Touma     Don't worry, Otomi. [10:25] Touma     He's Seinan's ace and     the son of their manager. [10:28] Touma     Any funny business and it's a real     life-or-death problem for their team. [10:32] Nishimura     What do you mean, "funny business"? [10:34] Touma     Oh, I'm just saying we can definitely     trust you to watch the house. [10:38] Nishimura     Glad you see that. [10:40] Touma     But, Otomi, you should lock your room,      just to be on the safe side. [10:44] Otomi     Right. [10:44] Nishimura     What do you mean, "on the safe side"?! [10:50] Otomi     Should we let Sou know? [10:52] Touma     Nah, we can check up on her first. [10:57] Touma     We're only playing along since     Nishimura got so intense about it, anyway. SIGN    Tanba     Hospital [11:02] Touma     But... [11:04] Mayumi     I never said I was the one      in the traffic accident. [11:08] Otomi     Huh? [11:09] Mayumi     I was walking with Mrs. Tanaka,     and a car ran over her toe. [11:15] Mayumi     They're just doing her X-rays now. [11:18] Mayumi     But she wasn't limping or anything,     so I'm sure she'll be fine. [11:22] Narrator     This is Mayumi Tachibana,     Souichirou and Otomi's mother. SIGN    Mayumi Tachibana [11:27] Touma     Yeah, figures. [11:29] Narrator     She's also Touma's mother,     though they're not related by blood. SIGN    m 0 0 l 100 0 100 100 0 100 SIGN    Meisei's Near Revival! SIGN    Some watching the Meisei High School team—     especially first-year pitcher, Touma Tachibana—     found themselves reminded of the intense battles     thirty years ago. In the semifinals, Meisei faced     Toushu High led by their indomitable ace, Mita.     Before the game, common wisdom suggested     it would be a guaranteed victory for Toushu;     that Meisei's record meant the path to a win     for them was nigh-on impossible. But that belief     was upended the moment the match started.     In the bottom of the first, Meisei's ace,     Tachibana (Touma), struck out the side... [11:37] Narrator     And this is the Tachibana family     patriarch, Eisuke Tachibana. SIGN    Eisuke Tachibana [11:40] Eisuke     Oh, hello! I'm Touma's father. [11:43] Narrator     Both widowed, Eisuke and     Mayumi remarried each other [11:47] Narrator     to form a blended family     with their children. [11:50] Narrator     The result is the thing     everyone's got their eye on: [11:53] Narrator     Meisei's battery of brothers. SIGN    Tanba Hospital [11:58] Narrator     Now then, back to our story. [12:02] Touma     Darn it. [12:06] Nishiki     Hey. [12:09] Touma     Nishiki? [12:11] Touma     What happened to you? [12:14] Nishiki     Lost my footing on some      stone steps up to a shrine. [12:18] Touma     You okay? [12:20] Nishiki     Yeah, think so. [12:23] Announcer     Mr. Nishiki, we're ready for you. [12:26] Nishiki     Later. [12:29] Nishiki     Oh, right. [12:32] Nishiki     Looking forward to working with you. SIGN    Tanba Hospital [12:40] Otomi     He was in a fight, right? [12:42] Touma     I'd say so, yeah. [12:46] Otomi     So... SIGN    Tanba Hospital [12:47] Otomi     How does he expect to be working with you? [12:52] Touma     No idea. [13:17] Narrator     Ryou Akai. [13:18] Narrator     A 9th grader at Meisei Junior High. SIGN    Ryou SIGN    Akai [13:20] Narrator     He's currently on the soccer team,     and he's Otomi's classmate. [13:24] Ryou     I'm home. [13:26] Ryou     I'm hungry. [13:28] Ryou     Anything to eat? [13:31] Akai's Mother     I can make you some ramen,     but dinner will be ready soon. [13:35] Ryou     I can't wait. Can you make it? [13:39] Akai's Mother     How did your match go? [13:42] Ryou     Oh. We lost, actually. [13:45] Akai's Mother     Again? [13:46] Ryou     Hey, come on, our last match was... [13:49] Ryou     Uh, I think... [13:52] Ryou     We won 3-2, didn't we? [13:54] Akai's Mother     How would I know? [13:56] Akai's Mother     If you're eating that junk now,     will you want dinner later than usual? [14:00] Ryou     Don't worry. I'll eat at     the normal time. No problem. [14:05] Narrator     Tomohito Akai, a 10th grader at Kenjo     High School. He's on the baseball team. SIGN    Tomohito SIGN    Akai [14:09] Narrator     This sibling relationship     is a bit complicated, too. [14:19] Narrator     Arisa Mita. [14:20] Narrator     A 9th grader at Meisei Junior High.     She's the caretaker for their soccer team. SIGN    Arisa Mita [14:25] Tomohito     You again? [14:26] Arisa     I could say the same to you! [14:31] Tomohito     What is it today? [14:33] Arisa     I thought Ryou might be upset     about losing the match. [14:37] Arisa     I wanted to check on him. [14:39] Tomohito     You really seem to have     a lot of time on your hands. [14:44] Tomohito     Is he seriously applying himself to soccer? [14:48] Arisa     Huh? He's the best player on the team. [14:52] Tomohito     That's not what I asked, stupid. [14:55] Arisa     Who are you calling "stupid"?! [14:57] Arisa     Hey, answer me! [15:23] Imagawa     Hey, hey! Look alive over there! [15:26] Imagawa     Let's get it all cleaned up! [15:30] Touma     You turned it down? [15:33] Touma     Nishiki's application. [15:35] Imagawa     Yeah. [15:38] Imagawa     I'm hungry. Let's grab     something on the way back. SIGN    DRAGON [15:45] Souichirou     Huh? SIGN    DRAGON [15:47] Imagawa     Wasn't this a ramen place? SIGN    DRAGON [15:49] Touma     I thought it was. [15:51] Haruka     It was. Up until two weeks ago. SIGN    DRAGON SIGN    DRAGON SIGN    DRAGON [15:56] Imagawa     Why'd it change?      It pulled in tons of customers. [16:00] Imagawa     Why a coffee shop in this day and age? [16:02] Haruka     Ramen places get way     too busy around lunchtime. [16:06] Imagawa     Huh? [16:08] Haruka     I think he got frustrated that he couldn't go      watch any of Meisei's games because of it. [16:14] Souichirou     I'm thankful for the support, [16:17] Souichirou     but can he really make a living like that? [16:20] Touma     Dunno. [16:21] Haruka     He kind of treats the whole     thing like a hobby anyway. [16:24] Haruka     Believe it or not, he's pretty rich, apparently. [16:27] Souichirou     With a face like his, you have to wonder     if he earned his money in an honest— [16:32] Masaki     Quit flappin' your gums in front of my shop! [16:34] Masaki     In or out? Make up your dang minds, will ya? SIGN    DRAGON [16:37] Touma     Do they even do food here? [16:39] Haruka     Apparently, he recommends     the napolitan spaghetti. [16:42] Souichirou     Want to join us, Haruka? [16:45] Haruka     Sorry, but I need to have dinner ready      by the time Dad gets home. [16:51] Haruka     See you! SIGN    DRAGON [16:58] Imagawa     So, about Nishiki... [17:00] Imagawa     Yeah, I turned him down. SIGN    Chinese     Food SIGN    Chinese     Food [17:02] Souichirou     You really think he won't work? [17:05] Imagawa     You guys know him better than I do, right? [17:09] Touma     Well, I heard he quit the baseball     team before eighth grade [17:13] Touma     and fell in with a bad crowd, but... [17:16] Touma     He was always a pretty quiet guy. [17:18] Touma     I'm not sure I ever had     a real conversation with him. [17:22] Imagawa     Well, he won't work. [17:25] Imagawa     I saw it. When he quit the team... [17:30] Imagawa     I saw him punch Kuroyanagi,     the junior high team's manager. [17:36] Imagawa     The manager told me to stay quiet,     though, so I never told anyone. [17:41] Imagawa     He just won't work. He's too dangerous. [17:44] Imagawa     How would you even have to fall on     a shrine stairway to get injuries like that?! [17:49] Masaki     Here. Your napolitan spaghetti. [17:52] Touma     Chopsticks? [17:54] Masaki     Just use 'em. [17:55] Masaki     I've got tons of leftover     disposable chopsticks. SIGN    Chinese     Food SIGN    Chinese     Food [17:59] Souichirou     I suspect the chopsticks     aren't the only things left over. [18:02] Masaki     I'm still remodeling. [18:05] Masaki     Listen up, new captain! [18:07] Masaki     Don't go getting the wrong idea! [18:09] Masaki     Meisei got as far as it did this year     due to a series of lucky breaks. [18:13] Masaki     First of all, none of the teams     you faced scouted you beforehand. [18:17] Masaki     Of the teams that made the round of 16,     you had the most errors in a single game, [18:20] Masaki     and the worst team batting average! [18:22] Masaki     And in the semifinals,     you lost in a 14-inning shutout! [18:25] Masaki     I know you were facing Mita and all,      but you never even got close to scoring! [18:30] Imagawa     Can't really argue with that. [18:32] Masaki     I don't know why nobody noticed a battery      as good as you in your junior high days. [18:37] Touma     Yeah, that's a long story. [18:40] Masaki     But next time, you can expect to     be thoroughly watched, analyzed, [18:43] Masaki     and strategized against     by all the other teams! [18:46] Masaki     And they'll definitely target     your weak spot: your fielding! [18:49] Imagawa     Hey, shop master, got any tabasco? [18:51] Masaki     I've got plenty of chili oil. [18:57] Masaki     That's not to say I'm not grateful     to see the team as strong as it is! [19:03] Souichirou     Should you really be drinking that much? [19:05] Masaki     No worries! Business will be dead all night! SIGN    DRAGON [19:12] Souichirou     It's true that our defense will take     a big hit with the seniors leaving. [19:17] Touma     Yeah. [19:18] Imagawa     We just need to practice,     and we'll get better. [19:22] Imagawa     Well, somewhat better. [19:24] Imagawa     There'll be promising guys coming up      from the junior high school, too, right? [19:28] Touma     Oh, tons! [19:30] Touma     There's Natsuno. And... [19:33] Touma     There's Natsuno. And... [19:36] Touma     Natsuno. [19:37] Imagawa     Right, right. [19:38] Imagawa     That should be enough. [19:41] Imagawa     Huh? [19:43] Imagawa     Hey, wake up, you rotten shop master! [19:46] Imagawa     How'd the beers you drank end up on our tab?! [19:51] Masaki     Ah, sorry, sorry! I wasn't     thinking and did my usual thing. [19:54] Imagawa     What do you mean, "your usual thing"? [19:56] Masaki     Meisei Baseball forever! [19:58] Imagawa     Don't change the subject!

[20:25] Otomi     The new team can't focus with members of the     graduating class hanging around all the time. [20:29] Natsuno     They've gotta work on their fielding more. [20:32] Natsuno     They won't be any help to the     high school team otherwise. [20:36] Team Member A     S'all good, man. [20:37] Natsuno     It's not good at all, you dunce! [20:40] Natsuno     We're gonna practice our fielding     until summer vacation ends! [21:23] Narrator     And so, the new school term began. [21:26] Narrator     Oh goodness!

[15:53] Imagawa     He'd apparently been in and out     of hospital for the last six months.

SIGN    Regulation Baseball Club [16:26] Touma     So? [16:28] Touma     You started talking about     his dad at some point... [16:32] Touma     But before that, you'd been making a whole     thing about Nikaidou himself dying, right? [16:38] Imagawa     Oh, uh, well... That was just... [16:41] Imagawa     He'd been absent for so long,     I got worried and called, [16:46] Imagawa     but I couldn't get through to     his cell or his home phone... [16:50] Imagawa     And, well... [16:52] Imagawa     You said it, too, right? [16:54] Imagawa     You saw him entering the hospital on the sly! [16:58] Touma     Yeah, never thought he'd     be visiting his dad there. [17:01] Imagawa     You said it, too, right? [17:03] Imagawa     You said he'd seemed tired lately,     like he could drop dead any minute! [17:07] Souichirou     I never said he could drop dead. [17:11] Imagawa     P-Point is... [17:12] Imagawa     Last night, I finally got     through to his home phone, [17:16] Imagawa     and his mom picked up and started bawling. [17:19] Imagawa     She said "He passed away     last night," so I was sure... [17:24] Imagawa     It's not like anyone told me     his dad was in the hospital! [17:27] Touma     But since you spread the unconfirmed rumor,      we're getting called liars, too. Right? [17:33] Souichirou     Yeah. [17:34] Souichirou     Still, it's hard to feel relieved      when the news is what it is. [17:40] Touma     Yeah. [17:43] Imagawa     No worries. [17:45] Imagawa     He's capable of handling it now. [17:49] Imagawa     Oh, that's right. [17:52] Imagawa     His dad apparently had faith to the end... [17:55] Imagawa     That Meisei would make it to Koshien. [18:01] Touma     An annoying last request, huh? [18:15] Natsuno     Not as easy to hit as those dead     balls in the batting cage, huh? [18:18] Natsuno     You don't know the pitch type     and the speed beforehand, either! [18:23] Natsuno     Too bad, baby boy Akai! [18:25] Ooyama     Natsuno! This is batting practice! [18:28] Natsuno     Right! [18:29] Natsuno     Here comes an outside slider! [18:33] Touma     An inside fastball? [18:37] Natsuno     An outside fastball! [18:39] Souichirou     A forkball. [18:43] Haruka     He's clearly reading the man, not the ball. [18:47] Touma     Not surprising when the man's     that transparent and predictable. [18:50] Souichirou     But... [18:51] Souichirou     He's skilled enough that hits shouldn't     be that easy, even if you can read him. [18:58] (Flashback) Tomohito     I vouch for his skill. [19:02] Touma     So how does the manager want to use him? [19:06] Haruka     Center field and lead-off, he said. [19:09] Haruka     He's got speed and strength. [19:12] Touma     C'mon now. Even then, it seems a little soon. [19:15] Souichirou     No, it might do the trick. [19:18] Souichirou     Though, I guess it's more a sign     of the shallow talent pool [19:21] Souichirou     versus what you'd get     at a more famous school. [19:24] Haruka     Exactly. [19:27] Haruka     Which means no one's allowed to get hurt. [19:30] Haruka     I'll be running strict checks     on everyone's condition. [19:34] Touma & Souichirou     Yes, ma'am.

[01:40] Narrator     Another run for Meisei. [01:47] Narrator     It's the top of the fifth. Kaiou Nishi to bat. [01:57] Umpire     Strike! [02:02] Umpire     Strike two! [02:06] Umpire     Strike! You're out! [02:06] Ooyama     Nice pitching. [02:10] Haruka     Dad... Whoops. Coach! SIGN    Kaiou Nishi Manager [02:14] Haruka     The other team's manager is on the line. [02:17] Haruka     He says, "How long are     you gonna let him pitch?" [02:21] Ooyama     How dare you ask me that?! [02:22] Ooyama     It was you who got mad at me for resting     Touma in last summer's quarterfinals, [02:26] Ooyama     and insisted on an honest,      no-holds-barred duel today! [02:29] Ooyama     You can't just back out now! [02:33] Haruka     He hung up. [02:36] Umpire     Strike! Out! [02:38] Ooyama     In your face. [02:40] Haruka     Still, on top of all the strikeouts,     he's had five infield outs. [02:43] Haruka     Not a single ball has     made it into the outfield. [02:46] Ooyama     That's because of that     idiotic manager's stupid pride. [02:49] Ooyama     His lineup could be good      if they played with freedom, [02:52] Ooyama     but he's putting unnecessary pressure on them. [02:54] Ooyama     Trying not to piss him off,     they're getting all tense and panicking. [02:57] Ooyama     And Souichirou's game-calling     is toying with them. [03:01] Haruka     He must be pretty upset     about last year's loss, huh? [03:04] Ooyama     Yeah. [03:06] Ooyama     We were resting our ace pitcher, and went     into the bottom of the ninth three down, [03:09] Ooyama     when their ace pitcher pulled a     muscle and gifted us the walkoff. [03:13] Ooyama     As the manager of a prestigious team,     it must've been humiliating. [03:16] Ooyama     Not that it's my problem. [03:21] Haruka     Hello? [03:23] Haruka     The other team's manager says: SIGN    Kaiou Nishi Manager [03:25] Haruka     "Next inning, let's have an honest,     no-holds-barred duel [03:28] Haruka     between our number two pitchers." [03:33] Ooyama     Just ignore him. SIGN    Tachibana [03:35] Nishimura     He saved Otomi's life? [03:38] Nishimura     Just who is this guy? [03:40] Mayumi     Well, about that... [03:44] Mayumi     Oh, is the game over? [03:46] Harada     No, but your son is done     pitching for the day. [03:52] Harada     Hey. What's your name? [03:55] Nishimura     Um... Nishimura. Why? [03:58] Harada     Nishimura? [04:02] Nishimura     Wh-What of it? [04:05] Harada     That's a very unremarkable name. [04:07] Nishimura     Hey, lay off! [04:08] Harada     Ma'am, do you have a baseball glove? [04:10] Mayumi     Oh, the house is full of them. [04:14] Harada     Can you play catch? [04:17] Nishimura     Uh, pardon? Who do you     think you're talking to? [04:21] Nishimura     I'm Takumi Nishimura,     Seinan High's ace pitcher! [04:24] Harada     I don't care. [04:26] Harada     Come along now. [04:30] Nishimura     All right, here we go! [04:32] Harada     Give me your best shot! SIGN    Punch [04:43] Nishimura     What the hell are you doing?!     You can't just dodge them! [04:47] Harada     Oh. Right. SIGN    Punch [05:06] Harada     Doesn't seem right. [05:09] Nishimura     Hang on! What about the ball? [05:12] Harada     Just go next door and get it back. [05:15] Nishimura     But, uh, didn't you hear something break? [05:18] Harada     Most things can be resolved with an apology. SIGN    Punch [05:23] Harada     I thought I might've played     baseball in school, but seems not. [05:30] Mayumi     Doesn't look like it, no. [05:34] Umpire     Ball. [05:36] Narrator     Reliever: Natsuno, tenth grade. [05:39] Narrator     After getting one out,     he's given up a series of walks. [05:43] Souichirou     Like I told you last inning,     don't let so many runners on base. [05:48] Souichirou     You're being too calculating. [05:50] Souichirou     Your pitches are sharp today.     You don't have to paint the corners. [05:54] Souichirou     They won't get any long hits,      so go aggressive. [05:57] Natsuno     I don't want short ones, either. [05:59] Natsuno     We're on a no-hitter here. [06:03] Souichirou     Listen, man.     No one's expecting that from you. [06:06] Souichirou     What's a combined no-hitter matter in      a practice game? It won't be made official. [06:12] Natsuno     It will be. In my memory. [06:15] Natsuno     And... [06:17] Natsuno     I'm sure it'd make Otomi happy if I did. [06:25] Souichirou     Fine. Paint the corners. [06:28] Souichirou     But if anyone gets a hit, I'm talking to     the manager and getting you swapped out. [06:33] Natsuno     Right! [06:35] Ooyama     What do you think of that number two pitcher? [06:39] Touma     His face seems easy to draw. [06:42] Ooyama     Hm? [06:42] Touma     Oh, nothing. [06:43] Touma     Seems the batters are more     relaxed than when facing me, [06:46] Touma     and they can see the pitches a bit easier. [06:49] Ooyama     Well, he is a first-year pitcher     with no accomplishments to his name. [06:53] Touma     This lineup might get pretty crazy, then. [07:07] Conductor     How was that? [07:08] Conductor     Sir? [07:09] Conductor     Mr. Senbongi? [07:11] Senbongi     Huh? Oh, right. [07:13] Senbongi     Sounded fine to me. [07:17] Senbongi     You were playing so well, you almost     pulled me into the land of dreams. [07:22] Senbongi     Wow, look at the time. [07:24] Senbongi     Let's stop there and meet again on Monday. [07:31] Yoshiko     It's like he doesn't care. [07:33] Saitou     Well, he's our advisor while     Tsuda's out for childcare leave. [07:37] Senbongi     Oh, right. Yokoyama. Saitou. [07:39] Saitou     Huh? [07:40] Senbongi     You should take better care     of your instruments. [07:44] Saitou     Gulp. [07:45] Senbongi     See you. [07:47] Otomi     Seems he's got a good ear, at least. [07:48] Yoshiko     I wonder about that. [07:55] Natsuno     Heck yeah! [08:00] Haruka     A-A no-hitter?

[10:04] Touma     Oh, yeah. Did the police ever look into him? [10:08] Otomi     Yeah. There's no missing persons     notices or arrest warrants out for him.

[00:15] Komiyama     Against Meisei High. [00:19] Tomohito     You're interested in them? SIGN    Kenjo High School [00:21] Komiyama     Yeah. [00:23] Teramoto     Seinan's wanted a practice match     for ages. Won't that make them mad? [00:28] Komiyama     I don't need to test Seinan to     know what their team can do. [00:34] Komiyama     Or that they're a formidable opponent. [00:37] Komiyama     Meisei's the unpredictable one. [00:39] Komiyama     Their potential is unsettling. [00:42] Komiyama     One or two players taking the next step     could make a huge difference for them. [00:47] Komiyama     And I want to see your     little brother in action. [00:51] Teramoto     But this might help them out. [00:54] Komiyama     Oh, it won't. [00:56] Komiyama     What it comes down to is how we beat them. [01:01] Komiyama     Instead of letting their team develop     on its own until the summer, [01:04] Komiyama     we hit them hard now     and cut them off at the knees. [01:08] Komiyama     Including your little brother, of course. [01:13] Tomohito     You're worrying too much. [01:15] Komiyama     Am I? [01:17] Komiyama     Not as much as you, I'd say. [01:23] Komiyama     Point is, that manager's getting a little      too ambitious and excited for my liking. [01:30] Komiyama     I say he needs a cold, hard dose of reality. [01:35] Komiyama     Let him get too big for his britches      and he could be a real problem. [01:41] Imagawa     He drinks and he dances,     he sings and he fights, [01:44] Imagawa     yet he never reflects     on the trouble he causes: [01:46] Imagawa     Gorou Ooyama has arrived. [01:49] Imagawa     Let all who know fear flee in his presence. [01:52] Imagawa     I bet he said something like that. [01:55] Ooyama     You just made up that last part! [01:59] Souichirou     So what do we do? [02:02] Ooyama     What do you think we do? [02:04] Ooyama     Turn him down. [02:06] Ooyama     Unsettling them is a good thing. [02:09] Ooyama     Why reveal ourselves and     set their minds at ease? [02:12] Ooyama     Ghosts are only scary when they're invisible. [02:16] Ooyama     Why should the underdog show     their hand before the tournament? [02:20] Ooyama     I'm right, yeah? Any objections? [02:24] Touma     Sounds fine to me. [02:26] Touma     It's very you. [02:28] Ooyama     What do you mean by that? [02:35] Haruka     So we're set for 2 pm on Saturday.      That's three days from now. [02:45] Ooyama     For what? [02:47] Haruka     Huh? The practice match with Kenjo High. [02:51] Ooyama     What? [02:53] Ooyama     But I sent them a fax turning them down! [02:56] Haruka     Turning them down? [02:58] Ooyama     I wrote a big X on it! [03:01] Haruka     This? [03:03] Ooyama     Yeah, that's the one. [03:06] Ooyama     It says it right here, see?

[03:37] Tomohito     The only team this past year,     outside of the Spring Invitationals, [03:40] Tomohito     that beat us in a game     we worked hard to win. [03:45] Tomohito     Hm? Did I speak out of turn? [03:49] Komiyama     Is that so? I didn't notice. [03:52] Komiyama     When I lose a match, I analyze it     and put it straight out of my mind.

[15:05] Komiyama     That's my mistake. [15:07] Komiyama     My foolish directive to end this in the first [15:10] Komiyama     caused them to grow lax     when evaluating the pitches.

[09:33] Harada     Oh? [09:36] Masaki     The first tragedy was 30-odd years ago. [09:40] Masaki     On the morning of the finals, with Meisei's      first Koshien appearance imminent, [09:48] Masaki     their undisputed ace, a first-year     prodigy, died in a traffic accident. [09:57] Masaki     And five years later, a new man appeared,     who we all had high hopes for. [10:06] Masaki     Keiichi Sawai. [10:08] Masaki     Souichirou and Otomi     Tachibana's biological father. [10:15] Masaki     But a catastrophe in the quarters     took him off the mound for good. [10:25] Masaki     So whenever a promising new ace appears      for Meisei, you can't help wondering... [10:31] Harada     Kazuya Uesugi. [10:33] Masaki     Hm? [10:36] Masaki     Yeah.

[02:42] Narrator     The White Team is batting. [02:44] Narrator     Batting first, center fielder,     Akai. First-year. [02:47] Natsuno     First! [02:53] Umpire     Foul! [02:55] Ryou     Did his breaking balls always move like that? [02:59] Souichirou     It impressed me, too. [03:01] Natsuno     First! [03:09] Souichirou     Your swing there impressed me, too. [03:13] Souichirou     One ball width lower,     and that would've been in the stands. [03:22] Ryou     I got a compliment. [03:24] Koma     Giving up an easy out is     never something to celebrate! [03:27] Narrator     Batting second, second baseman,     Murotani. Third-year. [03:32] Umpire     Strike! You're out! [03:34] Souichirou     Three ball widths lower, and that     would've been a liner in front of center. [03:39] Murotani     I... did not get a compliment, did I? [03:41] Touma     Nope, unfortunately. [03:43] Natsuno     Two outs! Two outs! [03:46] Ooyama     That little punk looks even better     than he did against Kenjo. [03:51] Koma     He must be a real ramen lover, too. [03:55] Narrator     Batting third, pitcher,     Tachibana. Second-year. [03:58] Natsuno     First! [04:02] Souichirou     That was a fastball down the middle. [04:05] Souichirou     I think you've been neglecting     your batting practice. [04:08] Touma     Oh, shut up. [04:10] Touma     That frustrated batting debt I worked up      while never getting to pitch in junior high [04:15] Touma     isn't anywhere near paid yet! [04:21] Touma     Th-That was a terrible hit! [04:24] Natsuno     Grounded right to the pitcher! [04:26] Touma     Lucky break! [04:30] Umpire     Out! [04:32] Umpire     Three outs! Change! [04:36] Natsuno     Heck yeah! [04:47] Haruka     Natsuno? [04:48] Natsuno     Yeah? [04:49] Haruka     Your fingers... [04:51] Natsuno     Fingers? [04:53] Natsuno     Huh? [05:09] Tsuda     Has our band always been this good? [05:14] Tsuda     Was Mr. Senbongi a better teacher than me      while I was off on maternity leave? [05:20] Girl     No way. He pretty much slept the whole time. [05:25] Girl     Right? [05:25] Otomi     But on the rare occasion he did say something,      his advice seemed really on point. [05:32] Girl     Hm... Now that you mention it, it was. [05:35] Boy     I hear Mr. Senbongi is subbing      for the fine arts club now. SIGN    Fine Art Room [05:53] Umpire     You're out! [06:04] Touma     What's all this now? [06:09] Ooyama     What? Natsuno jammed     his fingers and can't pitch? [06:12] Ooyama     Well, well! We've got ramen in our future. [06:16] Ooyama     Will he be all right, though? [06:19] Morishita     Your priorities might be backwards there. [06:22] Touma     What should we do? [06:26] Touma     It won't be much of a match like this. [06:30] Ooyama     True. [06:31] Ooyama     They don't have a real relief pitcher. SIGN    Team SIGN    Red Team SIGN    White Team SIGN    1st SIGN    2nd SIGN    3rd SIGN    4th [06:36] Ooyama     Well, let's think about it after we score.

[06:49] Nangou     Yeah! [06:51] Narrator     Batting fourth, third baseman,     Nangou. Second-year. [07:14] Umpire     Strike! [07:17] Ooyama     Hey now... [07:23] Umpire     Strike! You're out! [07:27] Ooyama     Three up, three down. [07:30] Imagawa     Great work. [07:31] Souichirou     That catcher's mask looks good on you. [07:34] Imagawa     You think so? [07:36] Koma     Oh, I forgot. In junior high, Imagawa was     the team's catcher before Souichirou joined. [07:44] Touma     Yeah. [07:45] Touma     But they moved him to first     with high hopes for his slugging. [07:49] Ooyama     Curse that Haruka. SIGN    Team SIGN    Red Team SIGN    White Team SIGN    1st SIGN    2nd SIGN    3rd SIGN    4th [07:55] Narrator     And so, we come to the top of the third. [08:04] Haruka     Touma doesn't seem to     be enjoying his pitching. [08:08] Imagawa     Yeah, I doubt he's liking it very much. [08:11] Imagawa     That first-year we rushed out      to sub in for Natsuno [08:15] Imagawa     is fouling off pitch after pitch     to stay in the at-bat. [08:18] Haruka     They're easier pitches, too, right? [08:20] Souichirou     His control is excellent at full power, [08:22] Souichirou     but it's harder to     maintain when holding back. [08:32] Nangou     That was a nice infield hit. [08:37] Nonomura     Tachibana. [08:39] Nonomura     I think I'm getting used to it, so you can     throw with a little more power if you want. [08:44] Touma     Oh, really? [08:51] Nonomura     I said a little more, remember? [08:53] Nonomura     I didn't say go all-out. [08:55] Touma     Oh, sorry. [08:58] Touma     That wasn't exactly all-out, though. [09:00] Touma     Let's try this, then. [09:04] Nonomura     Right down the middle. [09:10] Imagawa     We might take him out     of the game here and now. [09:13] Imagawa     Right, Souichirou? [09:14] Haruka     I'm not so sure. [09:17] Haruka     He might not be enjoying it, but... [09:28] Umpire     Out! [09:30] Haruka     He is focused on the game. [09:35] Narrator     Batting second, second baseman,     Tanabe. Third-year. [09:39] Touma     Okay, let's see... How do I make     a speed-limited four-seamer look faster? [09:45] Touma     Let's try... [09:46] Touma     Take this! [09:53] Touma     And this!

[11:41] Ooyama     Imagawa, who looks far too     at home in that catcher's mask. [11:46] Gorou     Match result aside, this battery     is a great discovery for us. [11:51] Gorou     I hate to admit it, but I owe Haruka one. [11:53] Touma     Though as far as I know, he hasn't done any      proper pitching practice since junior high. [12:06] Haruka     He's really into pitching. [12:12] Ooyama     Interesting direction on that grounder! [12:16] Ooyama     Run like your life depends on it, Koma! [12:25] Ooyama     Stop, Koma! [12:29] Umpire     Out! [12:31] Touma     What the hell were you thinking, Coach?! [12:33] Ooyama     Oh, um... I was just reminded     of his father and couldn't help it. [12:40] Ooyama     The accidents that come     with all-out play are rough. [12:45] Ooyama     Both for the one injured,     and the one who injured them. [12:49] Ooyama     Right? [12:52] Koma     Coach! [12:53] Ooyama     Oh, sorry 'bout that. [12:55] Touma     So what kind of person was he? [12:59] Touma     The guy who injured Sou's dad. [13:02] Ooyama     Oh, well... [13:03] Ooyama     He had a rather unusual name. [13:06] Touma     An unusual name? [13:08] Ooyama     He was a first-year like Sawai,     brought in to pinch hit. It was, um... [13:13] Ooyama     What was it again? [13:16] Otomi     Mr. Senbongi? [13:20] Otomi     Where have you been? [13:22] Otomi     The art club people are looking for you. [13:31] Senbongi     Tachibana.

[13:51] Eisuke     The president was so overjoyed      about the birth of his first grandson, [13:54] Eisuke     he started drinking during a meeting. [13:57] Eisuke     "Let's forget about today, shall we?     Everyone, go home!" he said. [14:02] Mayumi     I do hope your company's not at risk. [14:06] Eisuke     In this day and age, even the most prestigious      of companies aren't guaranteed a future. [14:12] Eisuke     Sometimes, a company just goes belly-up! [14:14] Mayumi     Both the leadership and the workers      seem awfully relaxed about it. [14:18] Eisuke     One of our sons will be the     breadwinner, if needs be. [14:22] Eisuke     With those pro baseball signing bonuses. [14:24] Eisuke     Oh, but wait! They could both      get signed at the same time. [14:29] Eisuke     Then we'd really be set! [14:31] Mayumi     Neither of them has said     anything about going pro. [14:36] Eisuke     Nonsense. The whole world will be     going wild for them in just a few years. [14:43] Mayumi     Is there another match today? [14:46] Eisuke     I took a peek, and it's     apparently a scrimmage match. [14:50] Mayumi     Is "Scrimmage" the name of     the school they're playing? SIGN    Punch [14:57] Eisuke     You went to visit his grave? [15:00] Mayumi     Yes. SIGN    Not at     Home [15:01] Mayumi     Oh, speaking of that,     I ran into someone there. [15:04] Eisuke     Ran into someone? [15:06] Mayumi     I'd never seen him before.     He said he knew Sawai in high school. [15:11] Eisuke     What was his name? [15:13] Mayumi     Senbongi, I believe. [15:17] Mayumi     Do you know him? [15:18] Eisuke     Senbongi? [15:20] Eisuke     That name sounds rather familiar. [15:22] Eisuke     I don't think he went to our school, though... [15:25] Mayumi     Ouch! [15:26] Eisuke     What's wrong? [15:27] Mayumi     I cut my finger with the chef's knife. [15:29] Eisuke     Hey, you sure you're okay? [15:32] Eisuke     Look! You're bleeding! [15:34] Mayumi     It's not a big deal, really. [15:37] Mayumi     It'll stop right away. [15:40] Mayumi     Um, staring at it won't make it stop. [15:44] Eisuke     Who was he again? [15:46] Eisuke     The man at the grave. [15:48] Mayumi     O-Oh, Mr. Senbongi? [16:06] Ooyama     We're losing. [16:08] Touma     I know.

[17:51] Imagawa     Yeah. [17:52] Imagawa     If you really devoted yourself to pitching, [17:55] Imagawa     you could reach the level of     most teams' aces in no time. [17:58] Haruka     Although... [18:00] Haruka     Even if we searched all over Japan, [18:04] Haruka     we might not find a single     catcher on Souichirou's level. [18:11] Umpire     Strike! You're out! [18:14] Natsuno     He's got plenty in the tank still, huh? [18:17] Souichirou     At this point, he won't worry about     passed balls until a two-strike count.

[07:06] Otomi     You think? [07:09] Otomi     That two-year difference in     elementary school is huge. [07:13] Touma     Nah. [07:14] Touma     Compared to the difference between me     and Sou back then, it's not huge at all. [07:23] Otomi     I see. [07:26] Otomi     So all your awesomeness came after that, huh? [07:51] Touma     Well, anyway. [07:53] Touma     C'mon, you dumb dog, let's go. [08:04] Touma     If Dad hadn't remarried... [08:10] Touma     I mean...

[08:21] Otomi     Could you picture it? [08:23] Touma     Well, it brought Dad's high school      photos to mind, so I stopped. [08:29] Otomi     So it was Sou that nurtured Meisei's ace, huh?

[13:31] Harada's Mother     He sent us a postcard from some     country or other three months ago. [13:37] Harada's Mother     He's probably not dead yet, at least. [13:40] Harada's Sister     That brother of mine! At his age,     shouldn't he have settled down already? [13:46] Harada's Mother     You're a fine one to talk.

[14:36] Natsuno     I told her I didn't want it,     but she stuck it on my bag anyway. [14:41] Otomi     Wow, this is nice. [14:44] Natsuno     Huh? [14:45] Natsuno     It's kinda lousy.     You can have it if you want it. [14:49] Otomi     You mean it? [14:50] Otomi     Wait, no, I can't take it! [14:53] Otomi     It's a present from your mom. [14:55] Natsuno     I can just throw it out, then. [14:59] Otomi     I'll take it! I'll take it! [15:02] Otomi     Thanks! It makes me happy. [15:04] Natsuno     I didn't think a little nothing like that      would make anyone happy. [15:08] Otomi     Oh, it definitely will. [15:11] Otomi     It'll make Tou really happy. [15:14] Natsuno     Tou? [15:15] Otomi     He's always loved these weird little things. [15:18] Otomi     He collects them in his treasure box. [15:22] Otomi     Thanks a lot, Natsuno. [15:26] Natsuno     I've never seen her that happy before. [15:30] Ryou     I see. [15:32] Ryou     So to make Otomi smile,     we need to make Touma happy. [15:42] Touma     Hey! Is that Mr. Skulls?! [15:51] Inoue     I dunno what it's called,     but I got it from my uncle. [15:57] Touma     It's pretty beat up.     I'll take it off your hands. [16:00] Inoue     No, that's okay. [16:02] Touma     Well, see, my little sister, Otomi,     loves those weird little things. [16:07] Touma     She's been collecting them in a     treasure box since she was little. [16:11] Inoue     She has? [16:13] Touma     Plus, that one's a limited edition,     so I think it'd make her pretty happy. [16:18] Inoue     You mean it? [16:20] Koma     Of course not. [16:23] Koma     Otomi doesn't want that crap. [16:27] Koma     Collecting them is Touma's hobby. [16:30] Touma     You little... [16:33] Touma     Ah! Get back here! Mr. Skulls! [16:40] Narrator     After class... [16:55] Arisa     Today's... [16:57] Arisa     my birthday. [17:02] Otomi     Oh, is it? [17:04] Otomi     Sorry, I had no idea. [17:05] Arisa     It's fine. [17:08] Arisa     None of my usual crowd realized, either. [17:12] Otomi     Oh. I see. [17:14] Arisa     You wanna come by my house today? [17:18] Arisa     I won't get birthday presents     if I don't bring a friend home. [17:24] Arisa     I've never had a friend over before, [17:28] Arisa     and it seems even my overly     indulgent parents are getting worried. [17:32] Arisa     They're all up my butt about     bringing a friend this year. [17:36] Otomi     So why me? [17:38] Arisa     Unfortunately, my parents are     under the impression I'm a good girl, [17:42] Arisa     and no one in my usual crowd     is suitable to introduce to them. [17:48] Arisa     Someone like you would set any     parent's mind at ease, though. [17:53] Arisa     You can hold a real conversation,     you're amicable, [17:57] Arisa     you've got the cutesy act down,     and you come across as smart enough. [18:01] Otomi     Are those compliments? [18:03] Arisa     But I won't beg or anything. [18:24] Haruka     Is it tomorrow? [18:26] Haruka     The announcement of the brackets     for the summer tournament. [18:31] Ooyama     Yes. [18:33] Haruka     Nervous? Excited? [18:38] Ooyama     If there's a manager who could look     at that battery and feel nervous, [18:42] Ooyama     I'd sure like to meet him. [18:47] Haruka     You've got Natsuno running a lot lately. [18:50] Ooyama     I'm just trying to keep him rested     until those jammed fingers heal. [18:55] Ooyama     No worries there. [18:57] Ooyama     Our batting lineup's getting     better and better, too. [19:02] Koma     Koma! [19:04] Ooyama     If there's a manager who wouldn't get excited      about this team, I'd sure like to meet him. [19:11] Haruka     Sounds like the manager's the only one      we need to be nervous about. [19:14] Ooyama     What was that? [19:16] Haruka     Oh, nothing. SIGN    Mita [19:33] Mita's Mother     Help yourself. [19:34] Otomi     Thanks! [19:35] Mita's Father     Eat up. [19:36] Otomi     Thanks! [19:38] Mita's Father     Go on! Go on!

[20:06] Arisa     It's just a hobby. Get off my back. [20:10] Otomi     Oh, I actually don't mind at all. [20:15] Otomi     Your brother's getting attention     in college baseball, too, huh? [20:20] Arisa     I don't care one bit about baseball. [20:23] Mita's Mother     Otomi, your brother's here to walk you home! [20:28] Otomi     Oh, coming! [20:32] Arisa     Honestly. What are we, children? [20:38] Arisa     Wh-What? [20:41] Otomi     Would you like this?     We can call it a birthday present. SIGN    Mama Owl [20:48] Arisa     It's Mama Owl! How'd you get it? [20:52] Arisa     You can only get this at hot springs     inns in the mountains of Gunma! [20:58] Arisa     How'd you get it? [20:59] Touma     What's she so excited about? [21:00] Arisa     I'm so happy! [21:03] Mita's Mother     Come by again, Otomi. [21:05] Mita's Father     Look after Arisa for us. [21:06] Otomi     Sure! [21:10] Otomi     I'm here.

[01:38] Komiyama     I said they'd keep developing until     the summer if left to their own devices. [01:42] Komiyama     Including that brother of yours. [01:46] Komiyama     It says here his four at-bats were two     extra-base hits, a walk, and a sacrifice fly. [01:52] Komiyama     A fine debut for a leadoff hitter. [01:56] Tomohito     That sacrifice fly was just a mishit. [02:02] Komiyama     Did he go to watch the game? [02:06] Kita     With our schedule yesterday,     he wouldn't have had time.

[10:39] Nishiki     After repeated suspensions     from interschool play, [10:43] Nishiki     the manager they appointed     three years ago, Toida, [10:48] Nishiki     was tasked with thoroughly reforming     them by the school's leadership. [10:55] Touma     And that didn't work out so well, huh? [10:58] Nishiki     Actually, they became so dedicated     to good manners and etiquette, [11:02] Nishiki     you wouldn't even recognize them. [11:04] Touma     I don't really see it. [11:06] Nishiki     But they also lost their ability to win. [11:09] Nishiki     Last year and the year before, they lost in     the summer tournament in the first round.

[11:25] Nishiki     This summer, with crowds booing them loudly,      they've won both games by a wide margin. [11:32] Nishiki     You see, the manager pitied his team so much,     he changed tack at the start of the year, [11:37] Nishiki     and said he'd personally take     the blame for anything they did. [11:42] Koma     I see. So he let the wild dogs off the leash. [11:49] Nishiki     Well, I heard that manager was     a wild one himself once upon a time.

[13:12] Ooyama     He doesn't have control of it yet.

[20:01] Haruka     Just as a pinch hitter,     he's had two hits in two at-bats, [20:04] Haruka     one home run, and four RBI. [20:06] Ooyama     He got us! [20:09] Haruka     Are you okay? [20:12] Ooyama     I just played the game     on fast-forward in my head, [20:15] Ooyama     and Natsuno gave up the third run. [20:20] Ooyama     Which means... [20:22] Ooyama     Pitcher change.

[06:32] Ooyama     I know it seems strange to think about     something from decades ago now, but... [06:45] Ooyama     I had a dream about that game this morning. [06:50] Ooyama     It bothered me so much, I couldn't help it. [06:54] Ooyama     But that's no way to be. [06:56] Ooyama     It's offensive to our opponent!     Offensive to baseball itself!

[08:09] Ooyama     He looked like your average     middle-aged geezer to me. [08:13] Haruka     I'm sure he thinks the same of you.

[08:51] Ooyama     Good thing he went easy on the tag. [08:54] Haruka     The players don't share the     manager's cutthroat nature, I guess. [08:59] Haruka     In fact, knowing about the accident     is probably making them hold back. [09:05] Ooyama     What in the world are we doing? [09:09] Ooyama     This ridiculous back-and-forth     between middle-aged geezers [09:13] Ooyama     is ruining what should be a great game.

[13:53] Colorcaster     After that first out, the 8-hole, Nishiki,     hit a hard one to the shortstop, [13:57] Colorcaster     keeping Tachibana locked on third. [14:01] Colorcaster     Then, the 9-hole, Imaizumi,     grounded one to second for a third out.

[09:27] Mitsuya     The ball's drifting high. [09:32] Mitsuya     Ah, sorry. [09:35] Mitsuya     Just making an excuse for my strikeouts. [09:40] Nishimura's Dad     Trust your eyes. [09:49] Nishimura's Dad     In my time, I've seen a few high school      pitchers seemingly transform overnight... [09:59] Colorcaster     Another strikeout. That's his ninth today. [10:05] Nishimura's Dad     But I've never seen a transformation     as drastic as this before. [10:10] Colorcaster     Touma Tachibana's not letting     anyone get a foot in the door today.

[11:00] Seinan Team A     I haven't ever seen Nishimura     that happy while pitching before. [11:07] Nishimura's Dad     Really? [11:09] Nishimura's Dad     I have. [12:04] Umpire     Foul!

[14:08] Touma     Look, I get it. You don't have to say it. [14:12] Touma     "I only swung at two." [14:15] Touma     "That second one was a ball's width outside.     It shouldn't have counted as a strike." [14:22] Souichirou     I'm surprised. [14:25] Touma     Right? [14:26] Touma     I can read everybody's thoughts today. [14:31] Touma     I'm even scaring myself. [14:33] Touma     No one's getting a hit off me today! [14:42] Souichirou     Whatever.

[15:32] Komiyama     They're pitching in a way that     invalidates all of our data so far. [15:36] Tomohito     It's a rather abnormal match. [15:40] Yamaji     Darn straight.      They're both perfect through five. [15:46] Tomohito     Well... [15:50] Tomohito     That's not what I meant. [16:18] Haruka     Strikeout number...

Perfect, indeed! [16:46] Souichirou     Every ball has gone     where he meant it to go. [16:49] Souichirou     I haven't moved my mitt     once after putting it up.

[17:05] Souichirou     We might just see      a perfect game here today. [17:12] Souichirou     The only question is,     which team will pitch it? [17:16] Ooyama     Hey now... [17:20] Nishimura     Fourteen strikeouts? [17:24] Nishimura     How many do I have again? [17:27] Tadokoro     Ten. [17:28] Nishimura     Damn. [17:30] Nishimura     Even if I strike out the side     this inning, I can't draw level. [17:33] Tadokoro     C'mon now. Victory isn't     determined by how many slaps land. [17:38] Tadokoro     You guys are grappling      in the ring right now. [17:40] Tadokoro     Lower your hips and stand strong. [17:43] Nishimura     Huh?

[18:23] Koma     Zoom, zoom. [18:26] Colorcaster     I-Incredible. [18:28] Colorcaster     The first runner on base for either team     is Kousaku Koma, Meisei's 7-hole, [18:33] Colorcaster     off an uncaught third strike. [18:35] Koma     Winner. [18:37] Timon D     An uncaught third strike! [18:38] Timon D     Hey, great work! [18:42] Tadokoro     Sorry, Nishimura. [18:44] Nishimura     An uncaught... third strike? [18:48] Tadokoro     I didn't expect a pitch     that fast to break like that. [18:52] Nishimura     Does that mean there's a chance     I can get four strikeouts this inning? [19:00] Nishimura     Heck yeah! [19:01] Nishimura     I'm gonna win this grapple! [19:06] Colorcaster     Nishiki, batting eighth,     with a sacrifice bunt. [19:10] Nishimura     Damn it.

[02:41] Colorcaster     That was a tricky one. [02:46] Colorcaster     He totally jammed him! [02:48] Colorcaster     Oh, but... [02:51] Colorcaster     That slow pop fly ends up coming down in the     gap between second, center, and right field. [02:57] Ooyama     Don't do it. Don't do it! [03:05] Colorcaster     And it doesn't hit the turf! [03:07] Colorcaster     The swift Akai at center field     makes a diving catch. [03:19] Colorcaster     Listen to those cheers!     That's the first out in the seventh. [03:23] Colorcaster     Meisei's Touma Tachibana's perfect     pitching continues here at Jingu Stadium! [03:31] Nishimura's Dad     It's so annoying. [03:34] Nishimura's Dad     "Perfect, perfect..." [03:37] Nishimura's Dad     It's only the spectators making a big deal.

[04:32] Nishimura     No need to worry. [04:34] Nishimura     They can't achieve their     perfect game if I don't give up a run. [04:44] Colorcaster     That's right! Nishimura hasn't     given up any walks or hits, either. [04:50] Colorcaster     An error allowed one runner on base,     but he took him out in a double play, [04:54] Colorcaster     leaving no stranded runners     for a near-perfect game. [05:00] Nishimura     "Near"? [05:02] Hyouri     We have ourselves here     a bona fide pitchers' duel. [05:08] Hyouri     Is there a problem? [05:11] Colorcaster     Leadoff, center fielder, Akai. [05:15] Nishimura     Third time through the order, huh? [05:22] Nishimura     Gotten used to it yet? [05:26] Nishimura     My curveball, I mean. [05:32] Colorcaster     He got a piece of it. [05:35] Nishimura     Hey, good job. [05:36] Colorcaster     It's coming down in the gap between     second, center, and right field. [05:41] Colorcaster     It hits the turf! [05:50] Colorcaster     It's a hit! A hit, a hit! [05:52] Colorcaster     The first hit of this game comes from Meisei     High's leadoff and center fielder, Ryou Akai. [05:58] Colorcaster     Will we start to see offensive movement     in this second match of the semifinals? [06:04] Haruka     So, what do we do now? [06:07] Ooyama     What else? [06:12] Colorcaster     Whoa. The 2-hole, Murotani,     swings hard at the first pitch. [06:18] Hyouri     Who does he think he's fooling? [06:20] Hyouri     He knows the other team's     first and third basemen are fast. [06:25] Hyouri     He's trying to delay their charge     as much as possible, I'll bet. [06:30] Hyouri     He's obviously going to bunt here. [06:36] Umpire     Strike! [06:39] Umpire     Strike! You're out! [06:42] Colorcaster     Behind in the count, but still swinging     away and that's strike three. [06:46] Colorcaster     The runner stays right     where he is, and it's one out. [06:49] Haruka     Is that what you ordered? [06:51] Ooyama     Yeah. [06:53] Ooyama     I wanted to avoid a double play     on a weak grounder. [06:57] Ooyama     If you swing away like that     with Nishimura pitching like he is, [07:00] Ooyama     you won't make contact. [07:02] Haruka     Why not go for a sacrifice bunt? [07:05] Ooyama     I'm playing the percentages. [07:09] Ooyama     If first base were clear,     they'd walk Souichirou for sure. [07:14] Ooyama     Leaving the runner where he is [07:16] Ooyama     and betting on an extra-base hit     from Souichirou on his third at-bat [07:19] Ooyama     seems more likely to     translate to a run, don't you think? [07:25] Haruka     I see. [07:28] Colorcaster     Well, well, well. Looks like a     message from the Seinan bench. [07:37] Hyouri     An intentional walk, I'll bet. [07:41] Colorcaster     It's an intentional walk,     and Tachibana takes his base. [07:47] Ooyama     Wha? [07:49] Haruka     Even high school baseball     has adopted that rule, you see. [07:56] Koma     Looks like Nishimura on     the mound wanted that, too. [08:00] Touma     Yeah. He's thinking clearly. [08:04] Colorcaster     With one out and a runner on first, [08:06] Colorcaster     the 3-hole and catcher,     Tachibana, is walked intentionally. [08:09] Colorcaster     Coach Nishimura is willing to put a runner     in a scoring position to avoid facing him. [08:16] Haruka     Looks like their bench     saw things the same way. [08:19] Ooyama     Damn. Playing the percentages, huh? [08:25] Colorcaster     Next up, the cleanup, Imagawa. [08:28] Imagawa     Should I feel insulted? [08:47] Umpire     Foul! [08:48] Ooyama     When a percentage goes down... [08:52] Ooyama     you just have to raise it. [09:12] Colorcaster     The double steal is... [09:12] Umpire     Safe! [09:14] Colorcaster     ...successful! [09:16] Colorcaster     One out, runners on second and third. [09:18] Colorcaster     Meisei's got a real chance here! [09:28] Ooyama     How'd you like that? That percentage      is looking pretty good now! [09:31] Touma     What was the chance of     success on that double steal? [09:37] Koma     A more accurate throw     would've made that dicey, right? [09:46] Ooyama     Despite appearances,     he's good at making contact. [09:52] Ooyama     One out, runners on second and third. [09:56] Ooyama     We don't need a hit. [09:59] Ooyama     If he can just make contact... [10:02] Ooyama     something might happen! [10:07] Ooyama     Yes! [10:09] Colorcaster     It's a hard fly ball. [10:11] Ooyama     Make it to the outfield!     Give us a run on a sacrifice fly! [10:15] Touma     Hang on, dude. [10:19] Colorcaster     The right fielder retreats... [10:21] Ooyama     Yes! One run on a sacrifice fly! [10:25] Colorcaster     But it goes over his head! [10:29] Colorcaster     It's loose! It's loose! [10:35] Colorcaster     The runner from third makes it in. [10:39] Colorcaster     The runner from second makes it in, too. [10:41] Colorcaster     But the fired-up Imagawa gets greedy and     is tagged out at second. Just a bit too slow. [10:49] Colorcaster     And so, in the bottom of the seventh,     Meisei gets the go-ahead runs to make it 2-0. [10:55] Timon-D     Meisei! [10:56] Timon-D     Hey, great work!

[11:45] Imagawa     You see that, Touma? [11:47] Touma     Yeah, it surprised me. [11:50] Touma     I can't believe you got     tagged out at second. [11:52] Imagawa     Not that part!

[07:41] Harada     I can't get comfortable     on a nice, soft bed like that. [07:58] Harada     Where's everyone else? [08:01] Otomi     Mom went for a weekender at a hot     springs resort with the manager's wife. [08:07] Harada     And Souichirou? [08:09] Otomi     He's at the manager's house getting     treated to Haruka's home cooking. [08:14] Harada     So it's just the two of you here? [08:18] Touma     Yeah. So? [08:22] Harada     Sorry to interrupt. [08:27] Harada     Later. [08:42] Harada     Mind if I light an incense     stick for your dad? [09:24] Harada     It'll be all right, sir. [09:34] Harada     It'll be all right. [09:56] Harada     I'm counting on you with Touma. [10:04] Harada     Later. [10:13] Touma     What did he say? [10:16] Touma     Did he ask you for something? [10:25] Otomi     Nah. Anyway, picking up where we left off— [10:33] Souichirou     Did I just pass that old guy with amnesia? [10:41] Otomi     Welcome back. [10:43] Touma     You're back early. [10:45] Souichirou     On what planet? [10:48] Souichirou     It's already past ten. [10:50] Touma     Oh. You're right. SIGN    ~ Our Second Summer, Beyond the Sky ~ SIGN    ~ Our Second Summer, Beyond the Sky ~ [11:13] Narrator     Keep on moving, seasons of Japan. [11:22] Narrator     Keep on moving, young people of Japan. [11:28] Narrator     As the heat of the summer Koshien dies away, [11:32] Narrator     high school baseballers turn their     attentions to the fall tournament. [11:37] Narrator     With the seniors gone, it's a brand new team     made up of just first- and second-years. [11:45] Narrator     On this day, Meisei High is on fire. [11:50] Narrator     Hitting. [11:53] Narrator     Bunting. [11:58] Narrator     Stealing. [12:02] Narrator     Striking out. [12:06] Narrator     Hitting again. [12:11] Narrator     Hitting again and again. And again. [12:16] Narrator     Meisei High versus Nantara High. [12:19] Narrator     It's the bottom of the sixth,     with Meisei at bat. [12:27] 1st Base Umpire     Safe! [12:30] Ooyama     Heck yeah! [12:33] Ooyama     Is that ten hits now? [12:36] Haruka     Yup. The new faces to the     lineup are working hard, too. SIGN    Batting 2nd, Shortstop SIGN    Kenji Nishiki SIGN    2nd Year SIGN    Batting 1st, Center Field SIGN    Ryou Akai SIGN    1st Year [12:41] Narrator     So this is Meisei High's lineup for today. SIGN    Batting 4th, Third Base SIGN    Shirou Nangou SIGN    2nd Year SIGN    Batting 5th, First Base SIGN    Kousaku Koma SIGN    2nd Year SIGN    Batting 7th, Second Base SIGN    Kenta Hikosaka SIGN    2nd Year SIGN    Batting 6th, Pitcher SIGN    Ichiban Natsuno SIGN    1st Year SIGN    Batting 9th, Right Field SIGN    Yuusuke Yoneyama SIGN    2nd Year SIGN    Batting 8th, Left Field SIGN    Shinichi Maki SIGN    1st Year SIGN    Batting 3rd, Catcher SIGN    Souichirou Tachibana SIGN    2nd Year [12:52] Ooyama     Well, I knew our opponents today     would be stronger on offense than defense. SIGN    Meisei [12:59] Ooyama     Still, it feels good racking up all those hits. [13:06] Ooyama     Although... [13:14] Ooyama     Even if they are strong on offense,      isn't Natsuno giving up a few too many runs? SIGN    Nantara [13:28] Touma     It was the same in the last match. [13:30] Touma     I think he's pitching a little high overall. [13:36] Touma     Even though his best pitches     are sinkers with excellent control. [13:46] Touma     Plus, he's thrown a lot of     wild pitches and loose ones today. [13:56] Umpire     Ball four! One out, bases loaded! [14:01] Ooyama     Pitcher change! [14:13] Natsuno     I set it up so things     would be exciting for you. [14:17] Touma     You idiot. [14:19] Touma     You'd better work on that     pitching form of yours! [14:22] Natsuno     Sure. [14:25] Souichirou     Stay alert. [14:28] Souichirou     Natsuno's condition is part of the problem,     but they really are swinging well. [14:33] Touma     Yeah, I've been watching. [14:36] Touma     They're all really working hard. [14:43] Umpire     Play ball! [15:03] Ooyama     Looks like he's shaken off      the ghost of his dad. [15:08] Haruka     He hasn't shaken off anything. [15:12] Haruka     He's taken his father's     feelings fully on board. [15:32] Ooyama     It's much cooler this way. SIGN    Meisei SIGN    Nantara [15:49] Narrator     This is how the match ended. SIGN    Library [16:05] Otomi     Yes! [16:06] Arisa     They won? [16:15] Otomi     It was 11-4. Called in the eighth. [16:19] Arisa     How'd Akai do? [16:21] Otomi     Um... [16:24] Otomi     Looks like he got three hits. [16:27] Arisa     I see. [16:30] Otomi     Who are you telling? [16:33] Otomi     Oh, Akai's big brother? [16:39] Otomi     Oh, am I wrong? Sorry. [16:45] Arisa     They're an odd set of siblings. [16:48] Arisa     Apparently, they barely talk at home. [16:54] Arisa     But he's still really worried     about his brother. [17:03] Otomi     They're siblings who grow by butting heads.     At least, that's what he told Tou. [17:11] Arisa     Having non-blood-related     siblings sounds like a pain. [17:16] Otomi     Does it? [17:18] Arisa     Oh, right. You're in that situation, too. [17:22] Arisa     Wait, which brother are you related to again? [17:26] Otomi     Which do you think? [17:32] Arisa     I don't really care. [17:38] Arisa     Oh. [17:40] Arisa     About that guy... [17:42] Otomi     That guy? [17:44] Arisa     Akai's older brother. [17:46] Otomi     Oh, right, right. [17:48] Arisa     Bet you think he's cold and aloof, don't you? [17:52] Otomi     What? Uh, I didn't... [17:56] Arisa     But he's actually surprisingly... [18:03] Arisa     I don't really care. [18:10] Yoshiko     Looks like her feelings for Akai     totally transferred to his brother. [18:15] Otomi     I always thought they'd make a good match. [18:20] Yoshiko     I thought she'd been less prickly and looking      more attractive lately. That explains it. [18:27] Yoshiko     Okay! So if I wanna get prettier,     I should start dating someone, too! [18:34] Yoshiko     Hey, did you get more attractive, too? [18:37] Masaki     Huh? [18:56] Masaki     Mobile payments? SIGN    DRAGON [18:58] Masaki     QR codes? Cashless? [19:00] Masaki     What? What? Huh? Huh? [19:02] Masaki     What is all that crap?! SIGN    DRAGON [19:04] Masaki     Never heard the phrase, "Cash on     delivery makes for good neighbors"?! SIGN    DRAGON [19:08] Masaki     Takes some nerve to try to eat out on a card!

[20:04] Mayumi     Oh, Otomi. [20:07] Otomi     Tou, right? [20:10] Otomi     Morning, Sou. [20:11] Souichirou     Morning. [20:19] Mayumi     Did you notice? [20:22] Souichirou     Notice what? [20:24] Mayumi     Tou's been finishing his breakfast lately. [20:29] Mayumi     You always leave before him,     so I bet you didn't know that. [20:37] Souichirou     I'll bet. [20:46] Otomi     You're awake! [20:53] Touma     Of course I am. [22:08] Otomi     I'm heading out. [22:09] Mayumi     Have a good day! [22:11] Souichirou     See you. [22:17] Touma     Later. [22:20] Mayumi     Take care on your way. [22:22] Touma     It's not a long enough walk to take care on. [22:45] Otomi     Mom said, "Take care on your way." [22:49] Souichirou     Yeah? [22:52] Touma     Like I said... [22:54] Touma     It's not a long enough walk to take care on. [22:57] Otomi     Just do it. [23:01] Narrator     The usual morning. The usual walk to school. [23:06] Narrator     Always similar, but a little bit different. [23:10] Narrator     The Tachibana siblings     are doing well again today.
