SIGN    ~ Our Second Summer, Beyond the Sky ~
SIGN    Kenjo High School
SIGN    Tachibana's
    One-Hit Shutout
    Meisei Starts With
    a Called Game!
[01:32] Komiyama
    Well? Didn't I tell you?
[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.
[02:11] Komiyama
    You have a point.
[02:15] Kita
    Think we should raise
    the right-field fence a little?
[02:20] Komiyama
    Nah. Not even he could...
[02:27] Komiyama
    The second genius since
    this club's founding, I'd say.
[02:38] Touma
    Looking for something?
[02:40] Nishimura
    Oh, Otomi usually walks that doodle
     of a dog of hers around this time...
[02:51] Nishimura
    Wh-What are you doing here?
[02:54] Touma
    As you can see,
    I'm walking my doodle of a dog.
[03:00] Nishimura
    Where's Otomi?
[03:02] Touma
    She's got band practice.
[03:05] Nishimura
    Don't you have a tournament?
[03:07] Touma
    I've still got time to walk a dog, man.
[03:11] Touma
    Hey, don't you also...
[03:13] Touma
    Wait, did Seinan lose at some point?
[03:16] Nishimura
    You dumbass!
[03:17] Nishimura
    Our game was called in
    the seventh. We won 8-0!
[03:20] Nishimura
    I pitched till the fifth. No hits, nine
    strikeouts, four groundouts, and two flyouts.
[03:26] Nishimura
    A perfect game!
[03:27] Touma
    Yeah, yeah.
[03:28] Touma
    I know, I know.
    Learn how to take a joke, man.
[03:32] Nishimura
    You little...
[03:33] Nishimura
    If you weren't Otomi's brother,
    I'd let you have it right here, right now.
[03:37] Touma
    Whoa.
[03:39] Touma
    If you wanna get yourself disqualified
    for fighting, we'd really appreciate that.
[03:44] Nishimura
    Well, too bad for you.
[03:46] Nishimura
    I'm way worse in a fight than I look.
[03:49] Touma
    Is that supposed to be a brag?
[03:50] Touma
    See ya.
[03:52] Nishimura
    Hold up a minute.
[03:54] Nishimura
    I'm thirsty. I want a cold drink.
[03:58] Touma
    Go get one, then. I'm not stopping you.
[04:01] Nishimura
    I'm out of change.
[04:03] Touma
    You've got large bills, though, right?
[04:05] Nishimura
    You little...
[04:07] Nishimura
    If you weren't Otomi's brother,
    I'd let you have it right here, right now.
[04:11] Touma
    Whoa.
[04:13] Touma
    If you wanna get yourself disqualified
    for fighting, we'd really appreciate that.
[04:19] Nishimura
    Well, too bad for you.
[04:21] Nishimura
    I'm way worse in a fight than I—
SIGN    We appreciate your patience.
[04:41] Nishimura's Dad
    You're back early.
[04:43] Nishimura's Dad
    Couldn't find the Tachibana girl?
[04:46] Nishimura
    What's that supposed to mean?
    I was out jogging. Jogging.
[04:50] Nishimura's Dad
    Oh, is that so?
[05:00] Nishimura
    What're you watching?
[05:02] Nishimura's Dad
    Koshien.
[05:05] Nishimura's Dad
    That game so long ago,
    when Meisei clinched the championship.
[05:10] Nishimura
    Talk about a jinx.
    Why would you wanna watch that?
[05:15] Nishimura's Dad
    I was in that sold-out crowd, too.
[05:21] Nishimura's Dad
    I might've been that man's biggest fan.
[05:29] Nishimura's Dad
    This is the final scene.
[05:35] Nishimura's Dad
    Meisei were divinely possessed that summer.
[05:39] Nishimura's Dad
    Aside from their battery, they didn't have
     a single noteworthy player, and yet...
[05:47] Nishimura
    What is it?
[05:48] Nishimura's Dad
    It's him.
[05:51] Nishimura
    "Him"?
[05:53] Nishimura's Dad
    I've watched this so many times,
    yet I never noticed before.
[05:57] Nishimura's Dad
    Even though he's right
    there in the Alps stands.
[06:01] Nishimura
    Who?
[06:03] Nishimura's Dad
    Someone you wouldn't know.
[06:05] Nishimura's Dad
    Or rather, someone you shouldn't know.
[06:12] Eisuke
    A lifeguard at a pool?
[06:14] Harada
    I haven't won a lottery in a while.
[06:19] Eisuke
    I'm surprised they hired you.
[06:21] Harada
    For some reason, people just believe
    whatever nonsense I make up.
[06:30] Eisuke
    I think it really is best
    that you've got amnesia.
[06:34] Eisuke
    So what name did you give?
[06:37] Harada
    Just a name that came to mind.
[06:40] Eisuke
    What was it?
[06:42] Harada
    Koutarou Matsudaira.
[06:46] Harada
    You okay?
[06:48] Eisuke
    H-How do you know that name?
[06:51] Harada
    I told you, I made it up.
[06:53] Announcer
    It gets through!
[06:55] Announcer
    Meisei takes the lead!
[06:58] Annnouncer
    He's doing a sumo pose on first base!
[07:02] Annnouncer
    Yes, that's Meisei High's cleanup hitter
    and captain, Koutarou Matsudaira.
[07:09] Harada
    Who did he say he was?
[07:11] Eisuke
    Koutarou Matsudaira.
[07:15] Harada
    Guess I should've picked a different name.
[07:19] Otomi
    Are you watching that video again?
[07:21] Otomi
    You never get tired of it, huh?
[07:23] Eisuke
    I'll have a new video to watch in the fall.
[07:26] Eisuke
    "Meisei at Koshien: Part 2"!
[07:29] Harada
    Where are your brothers today?
[07:31] Otomi
    They said their meeting
    would probably run long,
[07:34] Otomi
    so they're staying at the dorm tonight.
[07:37] Harada
    Isn't it a two-minute walk?
[07:40] Otomi
    But building team spirit is the
    priority at the moment, right?
[07:45] Eisuke
    Here it is. The moment they sealed the win!
[07:52] Eisuke
    Yes! The best in Japan!
[07:55] Otomi
    Yes, yes. A great win.
[07:57] Otomi
    I need to clean up from dinner, so could
    the drunks please move to the tatami room?
[08:02] Otomi
    I'll ask you to carry your
    own booze and snacks.
[08:05] Eisuke
    Hey, c'mon.
[08:07] Eisuke
    Let me bask in the victory a bit longer.
[08:10] Otomi
    You've probably got it all memorized anyway.
[08:13] Otomi
    You don't need to watch
    one more second of it.
[08:15] Otomi
    Where's that remote?

[09:46] Ooyama

SIGN    Hiryuu

SIGN    High
SIGN    School
[10:17] Nishiki
    Hiryuu North is lax with its rules,
    and tends to attract lots of problem students.
[10:22] Nishiki
    These students tend to be tall and athletic,
SIGN    Idiot
[10:27] Nishiki
    and they've produced a number of
    national-level athletes in combat sports.
SIGN    On the scene!
[10:32] Nishiki
    Until a few years ago, their baseball team
    regularly made quarterfinals, too.
[10:37] Nishiki
    However...
[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.
[11:16] Nishiki
    Hiryuu North's strengths used to be
     their unpredictability and crassness.
[11:22] Touma
    Hang on. You can't have
    a baseball team like that.
[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.
[11:55] Koma
    You sure know a lot about
    delinquent schools, don't you, Nishiki?
[11:59] Nishiki
    What are you implying?
[12:02] Haruka
    Manners aside, they run hard for
     even basic grounders and flyballs.
[12:07] Haruka
    Their defense is solid.
[12:09] Hiryuu 3rd Base
    Screw you!
[12:11] Haruka
    They really know their baseball, at least.
[12:14] Touma
    Yeah.

    Hup!
[12:57] Umpire
    One out. Runners on first and second.
[13:00] Haruka
    Natsuno's walked two in a row.
[13:04] Haruka
    Is it because he's tired?
[13:06] Ooyama
    Nope.
[13:07] Ooyama
    It didn't stand out against the
    aggressive batters in the first half, but...
[13:12] Ooyama
    He doesn't have control of it yet.
[13:16] Ooyama
    Since jamming his fingers, his pitches
    suddenly have a lot more break now,
[13:19] Ooyama
    and he's still getting used to it.
[13:22] Umpire
    Ball!
[13:24] Ooyama
    If he can get those pitches
    exactly where he wants,
[13:27] Ooyama
    Natsuno can become a
    national-level pitcher for sure.
[13:34] Ooyama
    At least, that's what Souichirou told me.
[13:39] Umpire
    Ball!
[13:41] Haruka
    Looks like they're on to him.
    They know he's not fully in control.
[13:49] Hiryuu 4
    When you're down in the count,
    it gets harder to pitch...
[13:52] Hiryuu 4
    anything but a fastball.
[13:56] Umpire
    Foul!
[13:59] Hiryuu 4
    Guess I swung too early, huh?
[14:02] Souichirou
    Yup, you did.
[14:04] Souichirou
    Don't get greedy. Just hit it
    straight back up the middle.
[14:07] Hiryuu 4
    The hell did you say, asshole?
[14:09] Umpire
    Hey, come on now. No talking.
[14:13] Haruka
    Should we sub in our ace?
[14:16] Ooyama
    I told Natsuno I wouldn't relieve him
     until he'd given up three runs.
[14:22] Haruka
    Uh, but if he gives up three runs,
     they'll take the lead.
[14:33] Base Umpire
    Double play!
[14:36] Base Umpire
    Change sides!
[14:41] Souichirou
    Straight back up the middle.

[14:49] (Flashback) Toida
    Well, you see...
[14:50] (Flashback) Toida
    Our next game is against
    Meisei High, a seeded school.
[14:54] (Flashback) Toida
    But if we can keep it tight early on,
    I think we have a good chance of winning.
[14:59] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    That's not what I meant.
[15:02] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    I'm referring to the complaint calls and
    online criticism we get after every game.
[15:09] (Flashback) Toida
    Oh. Any complaints from the JHBF?
[15:13] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    Oh, well, not yet.
[15:16] (Flashback) Toida
    Isn't foul language and a bad attitude
    part of the Hiryuu North sports tradition?
[15:21] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    A tradition I'd love to leave behind.
[15:24] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    Our baseball team attracts
    enough attention as it is!
[15:27] (Flashback) Toida
    We've got to let them off the leash.
[15:31] (Flashback) Toida
    So we can draw out their true potential.
[15:35] (Flashback) Toida
    I believe this year's team has
    the greatest hidden potential
[15:39] (Flashback) Toida
    of any since the club's founding.
[15:44] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    Very well. You seem prepared to assume
    responsibility for whatever happens.
[15:50] (Flashback) Toida
    Is that a relief to you?
[15:53] (Flashback) Toida
    My contract with the previous principal
    means I'm guaranteed five years in this job
[15:59] (Flashback) Toida
    unless I voluntarily resign.
[16:05] (Flashback) Toida

[16:18] (Flashback) Toida
    Do you have a pen and paper?
[16:22] (Flashback) Toida
    I'm sure all these backroom
    dealings are getting tiresome.
[16:25] (Flashback) Toida
    Why don't we put it all on
    the line at tomorrow's game?
[16:29] (Flashback) Toida
    Either I resign, or the
    school gives me free rein
[16:33] (Flashback) Toida
    to coach the team the way I want
    for my remaining two years.
[16:39] (Flashback) Hiryuu's Principal
    Are you sure about that?
    You're playing Meisei High, remember?
[16:44] (Flashback) Toida
    And this year's team is the
    school's strongest since its founding.
[16:49] (Flashback) Toida
    "If our team loses tomorrow's
    game against Meisei,
[16:54] (Flashback) Toida
    I will immediately resign
    my position as manager."

    End of the eighth. Score's 3-1.
[17:37] Toida
    They're two runs ahead.
[17:49] Ooyama
    One out!
[17:51] Haruka
    The batter got seven pitches
    out of him, but he made it.
[17:55] Haruka
    Guess you can keep that promise
    not to sub out Natsuno
[17:59] Haruka
    until he's given up three runs, huh?
[18:02] Ooyama
    Yeah, since that won't
    put them in the lead now.

    Wha...
[19:17] Hiryuu Captain
    He scared me there.
[19:19] Hiryuu Captain
    I was sure he was gonna hit the umpire.
[19:22] Toida
    The only leash I removed
    was the one on their manners.
[19:28] Toida
    They still have to play by the rules.
[19:40] Umpire
    Two outs. Runners on second and third.
[19:43] Toida
    None of us are giving up.
[19:47] Toida
    Pinch hitter! Urakami!
[19:50] Haruka
    Their ace-in-the-hole pinch hitter, huh?
[19:53] Haruka
    He's useless on defense, but he's one
     of the best sluggers on the team.
[19:58] Haruka
    He's been red-hot this tournament, too.
[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.
[20:30] Hiryuu Captain
    Urakami's at his best
    against fastballs, right?
[20:34] Toida
    Yeah.
[20:47] Toida
    Except for when they're fastballs
    he's never seen before.
