**[00:01] ---**
The weather is perfect today.
**[00:06] ---**
Otomi is taking Punch out for a walk.
**[00:14] ---**
Excuse me.
**[00:16] ---**
Are you a stalker?
**[00:19] ---**
Who are you calling stalker?!
**[00:21] ---**
I am not anyone suspicious!
**[00:24] ---**
Really?
**[00:25] ---**
I am Takumi Nishimura!
**[00:27] ---**
I'm the tenth grade ace of the
Seinan High School baseball team,
**[00:31] ---**
who the entire nation will be talking
about once the summer tournament begins.
**[00:35] ---**
So, what is the reason for sneakily peeking?
**[00:38] ---**
I'm close friends with her brothers.
**[00:41] ---**
Hmm...
**[00:42] ---**
Lately this area has become dangerous,
**[00:45] ---**
with creepy-looking guys
roaming around, even during the day.
**[00:48] ---**
Wait! As I speak, there's
another suspicious looking guy!
**[00:56] ---**
Well, with that face,
I guess there's little to worry about.
**[01:00] ---**
You need your eyes examined!
**[01:03] ---**
That guy is a famous playboy,
known as the Red Smile.
**[01:07] ---**
Tricked by his refreshing smile,
**[01:10] ---**
countless girls have been reduced to tears!
**[01:13] ---**
What?!
**[01:14] ---**
Like I told you,
**[01:16] ---**
you can't trust what that school nurse says.
**[01:20] ---**
You were right.
**[01:22] ---**
It was good that I went to the hospital then.
**[01:24] ---**
Oh, one other thing--
**[01:25] ---**
Stay away from Otomi!
**[01:32] ---**
Stop right there, Red Smile!
**[01:34] ---**
I know exactly what you're thinking!
**[01:37] ---**
Huh?
**[01:38] ---**
What's with this comedy act?
**[01:40] ---**
Oh my! Isn't that the Nishimura
that everyone's talking about?
**[01:44] ---**
The guy who Miss Tachibana
is always talking about.
**[01:46] ---**
Nishimura, the ace of the
Seinan High School baseball team, right?
**[01:51] ---**
Ah, what?
**[01:53] ---**
He's the hero she's always talking about,
saying she's worried that all the girls
**[01:57] ---**
will be after him once he becomes popular
nationwide after the summer tournament begins.
**[02:02] ---**
*That* Takumi Nishimura, right?!
**[02:05] ---**
Ah, what?
**[02:07] ---**
Come on, Akai.
**[02:10] ---**
We mustn't get in the way of the two.
**[02:12] ---**
Come on. Let's go, let's go.
**[02:15] ---**
I see. She scripted this.
**[02:18] ---**
Otomi!
**[02:19] ---**
Are you all right? Did he do anything to you?
**[02:21] ---**
Did you get hurt? Feverish? Harmed?
**[02:22] ---**
--I'm fine!
--Did he talk dirty to you?
Does it hurt anywhere?
**[02:24] ---**
--What the heck are you doing?!
--Did he talk dirty to you?
Does it hurt anywhere?
**[02:28] ---**
Lay a finger on Miss Otomi,
and I'll blast you!
**[02:32] ---**
--Huh?! Otomi!
--Who the heck are you?!
**[02:34] ---**
--Huh?! Otomi!
--That's what I want to know!
**[02:36] ---**
--Otomi!
--How dare you barge in!
**[02:38] ---**
--So, who the heck are you?!
**[02:38] ---**
--Who is he?
--So, who the heck are you?!
**[02:40] ---**
It has been 30 years since
the glory of that summer.
**[02:43] ---**
The Meisei baseball team
that became champions
**[02:46] ---**
on their first tournament is returning.
**[02:50] ---**
Not your ordinary battery in the same grade,
**[02:52] ---**
these brothers and their
younger sister have adventures
**[02:55] ---**
in this story of love and youthful days.
**[02:58] ---**
Their goal is the same:
Get to the Koshien Tournament!
**[04:48] ---**
I'm starving.
**[04:51] ---**
Hang in there until Otomi's home.
**[04:53] ---**
She was looking forward to making you some
**[04:56] ---**
special "spaghetti napolitan"
when you wake up.
**[04:59] ---**
Special napolitan?
**[05:01] ---**
Why does she always insist
on making everything special?
**[05:05] ---**
If she made it normally,
it would be normally delicious.
**[05:08] ---**
But she adds other ingredients
and adds unneeded effort.
**[05:12] ---**
She has the tendency to try too hard
when it comes to you, dear Touma.
**[05:15] ---**
Perhaps unnecessarily.
**[05:18] ---**
Well, just think of it as kindness and
compassion, and let her do as she wants.
**[05:23] ---**
OK.
**[05:25] ---**
Thank you.
**[05:27] ---**
What for?
**[05:28] ---**
If it weren't for you, dear Touma,
**[05:30] ---**
I doubt Souichiro and Otomi
could've turned out like they are now.
**[05:35] ---**
Right?!
**[05:36] ---**
When I first met them, they weren't
sociable and they seemed so depressed.
**[05:41] ---**
But now, they're both
so popular and well-liked at school!
**[05:46] ---**
All three of you are, right?
**[05:50] ---**
"Victory"
"Go for it To-*chan*! Koshien! Asako"
"Dear Touma"
**[05:50] ---**
We've been receiving stuff,
ever since that game the other day.
**[05:55] ---**
In our mailbox.
**[05:57] ---**
I wonder...
**[06:00] ---**
Well, in any case,
**[06:02] ---**
your biggest fan is Otomi.
**[06:12] ---**
I-A-O?
**[06:13] ---**
"To Touma Tachibana"
**[06:14] ---**
Who is this?
**[06:16] ---**
"Just a Walk"
**[06:25] ---**
I'm home!
**[06:26] ---**
Welcome home!
**[06:28] ---**
I'd better get something to eat.
**[06:31] ---**
We're here, too!
**[06:35] ---**
Why are you guys here?
**[06:37] ---**
I don't know why,
but they insisted on coming with me!
**[06:41] ---**
That's like the story of Momotaro!
**[06:43] ---**
"Japan's Best" "Punch"
**[06:45] ---**
What's all the fuss?
**[06:47] ---**
Well, the Momotaro gang arrived first.
**[06:50] ---**
So, you decided to take
part by bringing the villain?
**[06:54] ---**
Who knows.
**[06:55] ---**
I happened to bump into him at the
noodle shop, and he decided to tag along.
**[06:59] ---**
Growl.
**[07:01] ---**
Is this some unlucky day I should know about?
**[07:03] ---**
Like I said, I...
**[07:05] ---**
--Shut up! You're only in junior high.
--Hey, don't you understand anything?
**[07:07] ---**
--Kids should keep quiet.
--Hey, don't you understand anything?
**[07:09] ---**
Say what you wish, Senior.
**[07:11] ---**
--Yeah, I'm your senior.
You need to know that.
**[07:11] ---**
--Huh? Where'd Touma go?
--Yeah, I'm your senior. You need to know that.
**[07:13] ---**
--I dunno.
--Yeah, I'm your senior. You need to know that.
**[07:16] ---**
It's not I-A-O. But...
**[07:19] ---**
One-A-O.
**[07:21] ---**
First year of high school, class A, Ooyama?
**[07:25] ---**
Sorry this is so sudden. When we're
finished with midterm tests next week,
**[07:29] ---**
I'd like to go out with you on a walk.
**[07:32] ---**
If it's too much of a hassle, never mind.
**[07:34] ---**
If you can join me, then tomorrow morning,
**[07:36] ---**
when I say "Good morning" to you,
respond with a "Good morning."
**[07:39] ---**
If you'd rather not, say,
"Anokutara Sanmyaku Sanbodai,"
**[07:43] ---**
then I'll know from your response.
**[07:45] ---**
Huh? What's this?
**[07:47] ---**
Ano, kuta, what?
**[07:50] ---**
P.S.
**[07:50] ---**
"Ramen Dragon"
"Chinese Food"
**[07:51] ---**
Due to the request of the shop manager,
**[07:54] ---**
I've started working at noodle shop
"Dragon" on days that it's busy.
**[07:58] ---**
If you're ever close by, please drop by.
**[08:01] ---**
I'll add an extra slice of meat for free.
**[08:04] ---**
Haruka Ooyama.
**[08:09] ---**
I see. Now it's making sense.
**[08:18] ---**
Stop it!
**[08:19] ---**
Why should I?!
**[08:20] ---**
Eat without getting in my way!
**[08:22] ---**
I'm a pitcher so I've got to watch how I eat!
**[08:28] ---**
Hmm...
**[08:30] ---**
"Punch"
**[08:30] ---**
I don't really get it.
**[08:35] ---**
See you later.
**[08:36] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:38] ---**
In any case,
**[08:40] ---**
"If it's too much of a hassle, never mind."
**[08:41] ---**
this could become a real hassle,
**[08:43] ---**
so it's safer to decline.
**[08:46] ---**
Let's see.
**[08:48] ---**
What was I supposed to say when declining?
**[08:51] ---**
Ano, kuta, ra...
**[08:53] ---**
Good morning.
**[08:55] ---**
Oh, good morning.
**[09:01] ---**
Oops.
**[09:03] ---**
But hey, that response is automatic!
**[09:06] ---**
"If you'd rather not, say 'Anokutara Sanmyaku
Sanbodai,' then I'll know from your response."
**[09:06] ---**
Besides, that key phrase
to decline is too difficult.
**[09:11] ---**
"Midterm Test"
**[09:12] ---**
OK, you have five more minutes.
**[09:23] ---**
"I'd like to go out with you."
**[09:24] ---**
I'd like to go out with you.
**[09:29] ---**
Don't get distracted. Focus. Focus.
**[09:32] ---**
Time's up!
**[09:36] ---**
So? How'd you do on your test?
**[09:39] ---**
Whether I guessed right
or not is a matter of luck.
**[09:41] ---**
Something to look forward
to when it's returned.
**[09:43] ---**
That's what you always say.
**[09:45] ---**
Don't expect too much
from him this time around.
**[09:48] ---**
Huh?
**[09:49] ---**
You've been having trouble concentrating...
**[09:52] ---**
...all week.
**[09:54] ---**
What makes you say so?
**[09:56] ---**
It's about time.
**[09:57] ---**
Time for what?!
**[09:59] ---**
"Noodle Master"
**[10:00] ---**
It's been over ten minutes since you added
hot water to that bowl of instant noodles.
**[10:09] ---**
Does it taste good?
**[10:11] ---**
Shut up.
**[10:12] ---**
Come to think of it, you no longer
eat noodles at home, do you, Sou?
**[10:17] ---**
That's not true.
**[10:23] ---**
I've started working at noodle shop "Dragon."
**[10:26] ---**
Hmm... this is a problem.
**[10:30] ---**
Wait. What's there to worry about?
**[10:35] ---**
It's not like I did anything.
**[10:37] ---**
And it's not like I've confirmed
how Sou feels about her.
**[10:41] ---**
Besides, it's just a walk.
**[10:45] ---**
Hey. There's no baseball
practice tomorrow, Saturday, right?
**[10:50] ---**
Right.
**[10:51] ---**
They'll be repairing the
sunken parts of the baseball field.
**[10:55] ---**
Yeah. That would be our only free day.
**[10:58] ---**
In that case, why don't the
three of us go out and watch a movie?
**[11:03] ---**
Can't you be less messy?
**[11:05] ---**
Wait.
**[11:06] ---**
"I'd like to go out with you on a walk."
**[11:07] ---**
She did say a walk,
**[11:09] ---**
but we haven't agreed on a date, time,
or place yet. Nothing's been decided.
**[11:14] ---**
Which means, if I booked
plans ahead of time...
**[11:18] ---**
Good.
**[11:20] ---**
Let's do that. A movie would be nice.
**[11:23] ---**
I'm home!
**[11:24] ---**
Oh, hi there.
**[11:27] ---**
Dear Touma, you had
another one in the mailbox.
**[11:30] ---**
"To Touma Tachibana"
**[11:30] ---**
A fan letter.
**[11:36] ---**
"Notice of our walk
Tomorrow (Saturday) 2 p.m.
Takamidai Station Entrance I'll see you then."
**[11:37] ---**
Darn it.
**[11:39] ---**
I ended up seeing this
before I could make plans.
**[11:43] ---**
Otomi.
**[11:44] ---**
Here's a gift to take to
the Ida residence tomorrow.
**[11:48] ---**
Ida residence? Tomorrow?
**[11:50] ---**
Have you forgotten?
**[11:52] ---**
You were the one who brought it up
last week when we visited them.
**[11:56] ---**
That you would give their
grade school girl flute lessons.
**[12:00] ---**
Oops, I forgot about that.
**[12:02] ---**
Hm?
**[12:04] ---**
Then next time
**[12:05] ---**
the baseball field sinks, we'll go out.
**[12:08] ---**
We can't afford to have
that field sink that often.
**[12:12] ---**
Which would mean...
**[12:14] ---**
What about it? Maybe the
two of us can go watch a movie.
**[12:17] ---**
Not a chance!
**[12:19] ---**
Didn't think so.
**[12:21] ---**
There's no reason to hide the fact,
**[12:24] ---**
but neither is there a reason to tell him.
**[12:26] ---**
Because it's just a walk, after all.
**[12:40] ---**
"Takamidai Station"
**[12:41] ---**
The weather is perfect.
**[12:43] ---**
A great day to take a trip.
**[12:53] ---**
How far are we going?
**[12:56] ---**
We're almost there.
**[12:58] ---**
I'm sure we are,
**[13:00] ---**
since it's just a walk.
**[13:12] ---**
How far are we going?
**[13:14] ---**
We're almost there.
**[13:17] ---**
That's what you say, but after multiple
train rides, we've been walking quite a bit.
**[13:23] ---**
It's just a walk, right?
**[13:28] ---**
Hey!
**[13:29] ---**
I remember this!
**[13:32] ---**
Downhill from this marker...
**[13:35] ---**
H-Hey, wait!
**[13:40] ---**
Bingo! This is it!
**[13:44] ---**
Huh?
**[13:45] ---**
Take a look at this.
**[13:50] ---**
"Katatataki"
**[13:50] ---**
It's a photo of me when I was three.
**[13:55] ---**
Oh! So that's why!
**[13:58] ---**
Huh? What?
**[14:00] ---**
I've been wondering
every time l look at that photo.
**[14:06] ---**
Look.
**[14:07] ---**
There's a persimmon on this sign, right?
**[14:10] ---**
Huh?
**[14:11] ---**
"Katatataki"
**[14:12] ---**
Strange, don't you think?
**[14:13] ---**
Why would there be a persimmon here?
**[14:16] ---**
You're right.
**[14:18] ---**
But not enough to bother me.
**[14:21] ---**
So I was wondering.
**[14:23] ---**
Maybe there's a hint about it
behind what my body's hiding.
**[14:27] ---**
I've always wanted to know.
**[14:30] ---**
Come over here.
**[14:32] ---**
"Katatataki"
**[14:33] ---**
Ta-da!
**[14:35] ---**
Look at this!
**[14:37] ---**
In Japanese, the word for raccoon dog
can also mean "take away the 'Ta'"!
**[14:39] ---**
Yes?
**[14:41] ---**
Take away all the "Ta" from
the waterfall name "Katatataki."
**[14:41] ---**
"Katatataki"
**[14:44] ---**
"Kaki"
**[14:44] ---**
Kaki.
**[14:46] ---**
Yes, the Japanese word for persimmon!
**[14:48] ---**
Do you get it now? Surprising, right?
**[14:51] ---**
Well, no. It's not anything
to get too impressed about.
**[14:56] ---**
Wow! That's so satisfying!
I'm so glad I came!
**[15:06] ---**
I'm sorry to dampen the mood,
even though this is a waterfall and all,
**[15:10] ---**
but we'd better start
heading back before it gets dark.
**[15:13] ---**
Not to worry.
**[15:16] ---**
For our way back, there's
a bus stop just ahead this way.
**[15:20] ---**
"Kuroku Bus"
"Tanton"
**[15:25] ---**
I told you so. Just like I said.
**[15:28] ---**
That's incredible.
**[15:30] ---**
I don't remember anything
from when I was three years old.
**[15:34] ---**
I figured that.
**[15:35] ---**
You don't remember me
teasing you either, do you?
**[15:38] ---**
No... Huh?
**[15:45] ---**
Huh?
**[15:51] ---**
"Ramen Dragon"
"Chinese Food"
**[16:02] ---**
Welcome!
**[16:03] ---**
Huh? Haruka?
**[16:06] ---**
Oh, she's taken the day off.
**[16:08] ---**
She said she had plans to go somewhere.
**[16:11] ---**
So, what would you like to order...
**[16:14] ---**
Hey...
**[16:21] ---**
Why are you coming after me?
**[16:28] ---**
Huh?
**[16:29] ---**
Manager?
**[16:31] ---**
Oh! I'm glad to see you.
**[16:33] ---**
No one would answer, so I was at a loss.
**[16:37] ---**
Why are you here?
**[16:39] ---**
Well, I thought Haruka
should be home about now.
**[16:43] ---**
From where?
**[16:44] ---**
Not sure. She never
told me where she's going.
**[16:47] ---**
Then why visit our home?
**[16:49] ---**
Well, that's obvious!
**[16:50] ---**
Because she left with Touma.
**[16:54] ---**
Hello there.
**[16:55] ---**
What are you standing out here for?
**[17:03] ---**
Then why don't we go inside?
**[17:07] ---**
Let's go in and talk about this at length.
**[17:14] ---**
The bus is taking a long time.
**[17:16] ---**
You're right. It's taking a little too long.
**[17:21] ---**
What's this sheet of paper?
**[17:24] ---**
"Kehoten Jiketsu Batesu Yaketesumi"
"Kuroku Bus"
**[17:25] ---**
Huh?
**[17:26] ---**
Are these silly riddles
a tradition around here?
**[17:30] ---**
It looks like it was posted here.
**[17:33] ---**
Losing hair can mean
"take away the 'Ke'" in Japanese.
**[17:36] ---**
"Kehoten Jiketsu Batesu Yaketesumi"
**[17:37] ---**
Hotenjitsu...
**[17:39] ---**
Batesu, yatesumi...
**[17:41] ---**
Huh? I can't make any sense out of this.
**[17:44] ---**
Wait. Look at this drawing.
**[17:47] ---**
"Kuroku Bus"
**[17:47] ---**
Compared to the old man,
**[17:49] ---**
the lost hair is sloppy, and sloppy
can mean "take away the 'Te.'"
**[17:52] ---**
So, this drawing is
"take away the 'Te' and 'Ke'"!
**[17:56] ---**
Huh?
**[17:57] ---**
What does it mean after
omitting "Te" and "Ke"?
**[17:59] ---**
"Kehoten Jiketsu Batesuya Ketesumi"
"The bus will be out of service today"
**[18:00] ---**
The bus will be out of service today.
**[18:04] ---**
Right?
**[18:05] ---**
Sure we solved the puzzle, but...
**[18:08] ---**
...the bus won't be coming
no matter how long we wait!
**[18:12] ---**
Do you have a mobile phone?
**[18:13] ---**
No, I don't.
**[18:14] ---**
How rare is that?
**[18:16] ---**
For two high school students in these
times to both not have a mobile phone.
**[18:21] ---**
Oh boy.
**[18:23] ---**
"Tachibana"
**[18:24] ---**
They met when they were three?
**[18:27] ---**
Those two?
**[18:29] ---**
I remember now!
**[18:32] ---**
It was during the funeral
of my previous wife, right?
**[18:35] ---**
That's right.
**[18:36] ---**
That girl made Touma cry
when she splashed soda on his face.
**[18:41] ---**
Oh, right. So that girl was Haruka.
**[18:45] ---**
She made him cry with soda?
**[18:47] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:51] ---**
Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!
**[19:06] ---**
The surrounding adults were all crying,
**[19:09] ---**
but he alone was romping
about with a big smile.
**[19:11] ---**
It seems she was quite upset about it.
**[19:16] ---**
He had trouble realizing
that his mother had died.
**[19:20] ---**
In addition, since he was little,
he always had the tendency to
**[19:23] ---**
get all excited when there
are a lot of people around.
**[19:26] ---**
A big difference between two three-year-olds.
**[19:30] ---**
Our Haruka may be different from others.
**[19:33] ---**
She clearly remembers what happened then.
**[19:37] ---**
So she has this sense
of nostalgia toward Touma.
**[19:42] ---**
Don't break the glass.
**[19:44] ---**
She says he turned out
exactly how she imagined.
**[19:47] ---**
She was thrilled to have
been able to see him again.
**[19:51] ---**
Unfortunately, I doubt Touma
remembers a single thing from then.
**[19:56] ---**
Touma might just be Haruka's first love!
**[20:04] ---**
Are you all right, Nan?
**[20:06] ---**
Are you hurt?
**[20:11] ---**
You fool!
**[20:12] ---**
At three years old, you
can hardly call it love.
**[20:18] ---**
How old were we?
**[20:20] ---**
Huh?
**[20:21] ---**
How old were we when we first met Tou?
**[20:24] ---**
I was six,
**[20:26] ---**
and you were five.
**[20:28] ---**
Then I lose.
**[20:31] ---**
It's nothing to be competing over.
**[20:35] ---**
Whatever the case...
**[20:37] ---**
...they're late.
**[20:41] ---**
What is this?
**[20:43] ---**
What's going on?
**[20:46] ---**
We've walked quite a bit,
**[20:48] ---**
but we haven't come across
a single convenience store.
**[20:51] ---**
You're right.
**[20:53] ---**
And it's dark everywhere.
**[20:56] ---**
This might be something
we should be worrying about.
**[21:01] ---**
I'm going to apologize now before it happens.
**[21:03] ---**
Huh?
**[21:05] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[21:07] ---**
What do you mean, before it happens?
**[21:10] ---**
It would be too late after something happens.
**[21:13] ---**
After what happens?
**[21:15] ---**
Should something happen, you can blame me.
**[21:18] ---**
Ah, hold on. So, what do you
mean by something happening?
**[21:22] ---**
Hmm... for example...
**[21:24] ---**
No! Something isn't right here!
**[21:27] ---**
This is a wide, paved road!
**[21:29] ---**
How could there not be
a single car passing us?!
**[21:35] ---**
Speak of the devil, right?
**[21:38] ---**
Yes!
**[21:47] ---**
"Seinan High School Baseball Club"
**[23:23] ---**
Next time, on *MIX*.
**[23:25] ---**
The one who saved Touma and Haruka,
who were lost in the dark, mountain roads,
**[23:29] ---**
was the bus belonging to the terrifying
Seinan High School baseball club.
**[23:32] ---**
They are bombarded by questions coming
from the Nishimura father and son.
**[23:36] ---**
This bus is haunted with spirits and goblins!
**[23:38] ---**
Will they be able to return home alive?!
**[23:40] ---**
What will happen to the two?!
**[23:42] ---**
"Try Pitching"
**[23:42] ---**
Next time, "Try Pitching."
**[23:44] ---**
Hey, stop exaggerating things!
