    It's all right.

    Don't dwell on the team that lost.

[05:01] Taro
    I bet they went to some
    prestigious school in the countryside.
[05:05] Taro/I
    My name is Yamada Taro.
    I'm a pitiful 15-year-old boy,
[05:09] Taro/I
    whose baseball-loving father
    gave his son a Joe Blow kind of name.
[05:13] Taro/I
    I was king of the castle
    in a weak senior league team,
[05:16] Taro/I
    but playing Hoya Senior's team
     was a real eye-opener for me.

[05:20] Taro/I
    To me, it was like I'd closed my borders
    and was swinging a bamboo spear...
[05:26] Taro/I
    when a black ship showed up.
[05:29] Taro/I
    Too scary! Too fast! I can't!
[05:30] Taro/I
    These are the three things
    athletes aren't allowed to say.
[05:36] Taro/I
    I quit baseball.
[05:41] Taro/I
    Tokyo Metropolitan Kotesashi High School.
    Average for academics and sports,
[05:42] Sign
    Tokyo Metropolitan Kotesashi High School
[05:44] Taro/I
    and with no baseball team.
[05:46] Taro/I
    This is the haven for Yamada Taro.
[05:53] Girl A
    There's a total hunk over there.
[05:55] Girl B
    For real? Let's go check it out.
[05:59] Girl C
    You're so tall.
[06:01] Girl D
    What grade are you in?
[06:03] Taro/I
    Huh?
[06:05] Taro/I
    Wait, no. It can't be.
[06:07] Taro/I
    That magazine's got me seeing things.
    It must be an illusion.
[06:10] Taro/I
    At a glance, they look like Kiyomine Haruka
    and Kaname Kei, but we've no baseball team,
[06:14] Taro/I
    and they would've had their pick
    of private powerhouse schools.
[06:17] Taro/I
    Right. This is a public school.
[06:20] Taro/I
    Huh? Why's he staring at me?
    Did I do something?
[06:23] Kei
    You saved me!
[06:27] Kei
    None of those girls were talking to me.
[06:30] Kei
    It was real awkward.
[06:31] Kei
    I'm so glad to find a friend.
[06:33] Taro
    Huh? A friend?
[06:35] Taro
    I wouldn't exactly call us friends.
[06:38] Taro
    We've never actually
    talked before... You know?
[06:41] Kei
    What? Is that so?
[06:43] Kei
    Okay, okay!
[06:44] Kei
    We'll be friends starting now!
[06:46] Taro
    Huh?
[06:47] Kei
    To honor the occasion, I'll give you
    a special demonstration of my one-liner.
[06:54] Kei
    Nipple hair!
[06:58] Kei
    How's that?
[06:59] Taro/I
    Kaname Kei.
[07:01] Taro/I
    Calm and composed,
    he's the unflappable catcher with brains.
[07:06] Kei
    How was that? What did you think? Huh?
[07:06] Taro/I
    But, uh, well...
[07:08] Taro/I
    If this is the real Kaname Kei, it's like...
[07:13] Kei
    I am myself, Kaname Kei.
[07:14] Kei
    Welcome to meet you.
[07:16] Taro/I
    Is he an idiot?
[07:18] Kei
    Okay! And let's shake hands!
[07:20] Taro/I
    Kaname Kei, my idol, looking so dumb...
[07:23] Kei
    And then... Nipple hair!
[07:25] Kei
    How was that?
[07:26] Kei
    Huh? Huh? Huh?
[07:27] Taro/I
    And he's the type that doesn't stop
    until you laugh. This is too much.
[07:31] Kei
    You want more, huh?
[07:32] Taro/I
    Please let me go.
[07:34] Taro/I
    Please. I'm begging you.
[07:37] Haruka
    "Nipple hair." That's hilarious.
[07:40] Haruka
    Who's this?
[07:42] Taro/I
    So tall!
[07:43] Taro/I
    He must be at least 185 cm tall.
[07:45] Taro
    Y-Yamada Taro.
[07:47] Haruka
    Yamada?
[07:49] Taro/I
    A pitcher with a cannon and an incredible
    physique, who's also a phenomenal batter.
[07:55] Taro/I
    Perfect. Faultless.
    That's Kiyomine Haruka.
[07:58] Taro/I
    No doubt about it.
    They're both here in the flesh.
[08:03] Kei
    Kiyomine-san.
[08:04] Kei
    What happened with those girls?
[08:07] Kei
    Did you get their numbers?
[08:08] Haruka
    I told them to go away because
    they were being annoying, and they left.
[08:12] Taro/I
    Has he no heart?!
[08:16] Kei
    I can't talk to girls because I get nervous!
[08:19] Kei
    I need you to do better, all right?!
[08:22] Taro/I
    Wow, lame.
[08:23] Taro
    Um, more importantly...
[08:25] Kei
    "More importantly"?! Seriously, Yama-chan?!
[08:27] Taro
    You two are Hoya Senior's
    Kiyomine-Kaname battery, aren't you?
[08:31] Taro
    Why are you at a public school
    that has no baseball team?
[08:36] Taro/I
    Huh? What's with that face?
[08:39] Kei
    Aw, man. Baseball, baseball.
    That's all everyone talks about.
[08:43] Kei
    But I've never played it.
    Or rather, I don't remember playing it.
[08:47] Taro
    Huh?
[08:49] Kei
    You see, the thing is, I have amnesia.
[08:54] Taro
    Kaname-kun, you're not
     quite what I expected.
[08:57] Taro
    You're surprisingly silly.
[09:01] Kei
    Silly? Who, me?
[09:02] Taro/I
    Yes, you.
[09:06] Kei
    Me?!
[09:07] Taro/I
    Yes, you.
[09:09] Haruka
    Kei's always clowned around.

[09:27] (Flashback) Little Kei
    Baseball's hard. I just can't.
[09:30] (Flashback) Little Kei
    It's not what I expected.
[09:31] (Flashback) Little Kei
    I'm done.
[09:33] (Flashback) Little Haruka
    But I want to play with Kei-chan.
[09:37] (Flashback) Little Kei
    Huh?
[09:40] Haruka
    Back in little league...
[09:42] (Flashback) Little Kei
    Ugh, so exhausting.
[09:44] (Flashback) Little Kei
    Ugh, so hard.
[09:45] (Flashback) Little Kei
    Ugh, no more!
[09:46] Haruka
    ...he had no backbone.
[09:48] (Flashback) Little Kei
    I'm dying! Too hard!
[09:50] (Flashback) Little Kei
    I wanna go home!
[09:52] Haruka
    And he was always complaining.
[09:55] Taro/I
    Even if Kaname-kun was once
    like how Kiyomine-kun describes,
[10:00] Taro/I
    by the time they moved up to Hoya Senior...
[10:04] Taro/I
    The strict discipline.
[10:07] Taro/I
    The grueling training.
[10:11] Taro/I
    The cutthroat competition.
[10:14] Taro/I
    His position as starting catcher opened
    Kaname-kun's eyes to how fun baseball can be.
[10:21] (Flashback) Kei
    Our next opponent is Chihaya.
[10:23] (Flashback) Kei
    If we hold that guy down, we can win.

[10:30] (Flashback) Kei
    I'll input all the data.
[10:33] (Flashback) Kei
    Be in bed by 10 o'clock,
    and don't get injured.
[10:36] (Flashback) Kei
    That's all you need to do.
[10:40] (Flashback) Kei
    And I'll make you the best pitcher in Japan.
[10:47] Taro/I
    So by "losing" baseball,
    which used to keep him disciplined,
[10:52] Taro/I
    the brains of the operation...
[10:56] Taro/I
    ...set free his silly side?
[10:58] Taro
    It's unbelievable.
[11:00] Kei
    I know. Amnesia's, like, so cool, right?
[11:03] Kei
    I think I'm awesome.
[11:06] Kei
    But hearing a story like that,
[11:08] Kei
    it really sinks in that Haru-chan
    truly is my childhood friend.
[11:14] Haruka
    Yeah.
[11:14] Kei
    Yay! All the breast!
[11:17] Taro/I
    We only just met, so there's no need
    for him to lie to me about that.
[11:20] Taro/I
    Wait, does that mean
    he really
does have amnesia?
[11:23] Kei
    All the breast!
[11:25] Taro/I
    That's why he thought I was his friend
    when our eyes met earlier.
[11:29] Kei
    Hold on a minute.
[11:31] Kei
    Then, is it possible I simply forgot
    that I've already had a girlfriend—
[11:35] Haruka
    You haven't.
[11:36] Kei
    And I did this and that with her—
[11:38] Haruko
    You didn't. Not at all.
[11:40] Kei
    Fine! So I haven't had
    a girlfriend! That's that!
[11:44] Kei
    Man. This blows.
[11:44] Taro/I
    This very ordinary public high school
[11:47] Taro/I
    is attended by
    Kiyomine Haruka and Kaname Kei.
[11:53] Taro/I
    And I'm in the same class as them.
[11:57] Taro/I
    Who'd believe a story like that?
[12:01] Kei
    It's only a five-minute walk.
[12:02] Kei
    And according to Google,
    it's known for having lots of cute girls.
[12:07] Kei
    Yup, I knew this school was the one for me.
[12:09] Taro
    I'm sure there were other choices...
[12:11] Kei
    I want to enjoy my high school life
    with love and peace.
[12:15] Sign
    And I just wanna
     lose my virginity
[12:15] Kei
    Baseball? No, thanks!
[12:19] Taro/I
    What a waste.
[12:20] Taro/I
    "Why?"
[12:21] Kei
    Nipple hair!
[12:22] Kei
    What do you think?
[12:22] Girl C
    Hottie alert.
[12:22] Taro/I
    It's too frustrating for me.
[12:23] Girl D
    Wanna try talking to him?
[12:23] Haruka
    It's funny.
[12:24] Kei
    You mean it?
[12:25] Haruka
    I mean it.
[12:25] Taro/I
    Because this school...
[12:28] Taro/I
    doesn't even have a baseball team.

[12:40] Suzuki
    You two have great physiques.
[12:43] Sato
    I bet they'd be perfect for baseball.
[12:44] Taro/I
    You're super low-level
    if you don't know who they are.
[12:48] Sato
    What about you, guy who looks so average,
    it feels like your name should be Yamada?
[12:53] Taro/I
    That is my name!
[12:55] Taro/I
    Not a chance, at this point.
[12:57] Taro/I
    No way I'm doing that.
[12:58] Taro/I
    And neither will these two—
[13:00] Taro/I
    Wait, you are*?!
[13:01] Taro/I
    Kiyomine-kun is joining a baseball club?!
[13:05] Haruka
    Yama, you join, too.
[13:07] Taro/I

[13:22] Haruka

[13:23] Kei
    No, thank you!
[13:24] Kei
    I'd never play baseball!
[13:26] Kei
    "Catcher" or whatever it is?
    It can be anyone, right?
[13:30] Kei
    I forgot the rules and
    everything else, so I can't.
[13:33] Haruka
    No.
[13:34] Haruka
    You're the only one
    who can catch my pitches.

    But...
[13:51] Mitarai
    'Sup.
[13:53] Kusuda
    Working hard to get sign-ups, I see.
[13:56] Kusuda
    What's this? We've got some first-years?
[13:59] Miratai
    For real?
[14:00] Taro/I
    How do we already have lousy seniors
    when the club was newly created?
[14:05] Kusuda
    You're buff. You got experience?
    What's your position?
[14:10] Haruka
    Pitcher.
[14:11] Kusuda
    Ah. He's kinda... Right?
[14:14] Mitarai
    Yeah.
[14:15] Kusuda
    We got a cocky one.
[14:17] Mitarai
    We were about to head over to the field.
[14:20] Kusuda
    If you're a pitcher, come pitch for us.
[14:25] Sign
    Oblivion Battery
[14:29] Mitarai
    I heard we used to have
    a baseball team until a little while back.
[14:33] Kei
    Yeah?
[14:36] Suzuki
    Yamada-kun, is this okay?
[14:37] Sato
    Will you be all right?
[14:43] Kei
    Yama-chan, are you serious?
[14:45] Kei
    Super lame!
[14:46] Taro/I
    I'm doing this 'cause you said
    you wouldn't be the catcher.

[14:50] Kei
    Lame! I can't believe it.
[14:52] Kusuda
    Throw the ball already!
[15:11] Taro/I
    I can't! I can't! I can't! I can't! I can't!
[15:12] Taro/I
    There's no way I can catch
     a pitch from Kiyomine-kun!

[15:16] Taro/I
    I'm scared! I'm scared!
    I'm scared! I'm scared!
[15:18] Taro/I
    I'm scared! I'm scared!
    I'm scared! I'm...
[15:21] Taro/I
    Huh?
[15:22] Taro/I
    That was like 100 kmh at best?
[15:26] Kusuda
    So slow.
[15:28] Taro/I
    He's slowing it down for me.
[15:46] Kusuda
    This is just like at the batting center.
[15:49] Kusuda
    It's the same as the 100 kmh pitches
     we hit there all the time.
[15:52] Taro/I
    Yeah. Like a machine.
[15:54] Taro/I
    The speed and the line
    are exactly the same.
[15:58] Taro/I
    They're impossibly beautiful pitches.
[16:01] Kusuda
    Here we go.
[16:04] Kusuda
    You wanna stop?
[16:06] Kusuda
    We'd feel bad if we toyed
     with him anymore.
[16:11] Taro/I
    I can't take it.
[16:12] Taro/I
    It's too frustrating.
[16:14] Taro/I
    Because of me,
    Kiyomine-kun is being underestimated.
[16:20] Taro
    Kiyomine-kun!
[16:22] Taro
    You can go all-out now!
[16:24] Taro
    I'm sorry for making you hold back!
[16:27] Taro
    I'll catch it, no matter what!
[16:31] Mitarai
    That pitcher's seriously lousy.
[16:35] Mitarai
    Throws nothin' but easy-to-hit, straight ones,
    then pretends he wasn't going all-out?
[16:44] Kei
    Yama-chan!
[16:48] Kei
    Sorry. Switch with me.
[16:52] Kei
    I want to live in love and peace.
[16:57] Kei
    So a situation like this
    doesn't sit well with me.
[17:08] Kei
    Lame! It stinks! It's itchy!
    What is this thing?
[17:11] Taro/I
    It's a protector.
[17:12] Kei
    My nipples are pink.
[17:14] Taro/I
    What do you mean?
[17:15] Kei
    Pink equals cute, you know?
    That's where I saw potential.
[17:19] Kei
    So my strong suit must be my nipples.
[17:21] Taro/I
    No, I think it could be
    a range of other things.
[17:24] Kei
    But just look at this!
[17:26] Kei
    You can't see my nipples at all!
[17:28] Kei
    Like, zero sex appeal!
[17:30] Taro/I
    Shut up and put them away.
[17:32] Kei
    Ack! Itchy again.
[17:34] Kei
    My chin's itchy. Oh, man. So itchy.
[17:36] Taro
    So you really did forget everything.
[17:39] Taro
    Everything about baseball.
[17:41] Kei
    Of course. I can't lie.
[17:44] Taro
    Then, this is dangerous.
[17:47] Taro
    You wanna tap out?
[17:50] Kei
    I'll do it.
[17:51] Kei
    That was a joke just now.
[17:54] Taro/I
    I ought to stop him.
[17:56] Taro/I
    But I can't help wanting to see...
[18:01] Taro/I
    the moment the gifted battery returns.
[18:07] Kusuda
    So a first-time catcher's
    entering the fray, huh?
[18:09] Kusuda
    But I guess even a first-timer
    can catch this slow-ass pitch.
[18:14] Taro
    That's right. Move your right hand
    behind your thigh and don't move.
[18:18] Kei
    Okay.
[18:19] Taro
    Kiyomine-kun's control is perfect.
[18:23] Kei
    There we go.
[18:25] Kei
    Like this?
[18:26] Taro
    Yeah. Looking good.
[18:32] Kei
    It's hard.
[18:33] Kei
    Squatting like this hurts my knees!
[18:36] Taro/I
    Kaname-kun's form sure is perfect.
[18:51] Taro/I
    The air's totally different
    from when I was catching.
[18:55] Taro/I
    Even watching him warm up
    his arm is terrifying.
[18:59] Taro/I
    That's right.
[19:00] Taro/I
    This is Hoya Senior's Kiyomine Haruka.
[19:06] Taro/I
    The demon that only appears
    in front of Kaname Kei.
[19:13] Kusuda
    Wh-What's going on?
[19:15] Taro/I
    I still can't believe this.
[19:18] Taro/I
    Why would Kiyomine-kun
    come to a public school, too?
[19:26] Haruka
    Kei, are you sure?
[19:28] Kei
    I told you it's fine! Just throw already.
[19:31] Kei
    I'm the only one who can
    catch your pitches, right?
[19:36] Taro/I
    I see.
[19:37] Taro/I
    It's as simple as Kiyomine-kun wanting
    to play baseball with Kaname-kun.
[19:42] Taro/I
    And for that reason, he threw away
    the scholarship, the bright future,
[19:47] Taro/I
    the path to becoming
    a pro baseball player...
[19:50] Taro/I
    All of it. The whole lot.
[19:53] Taro/I
    And he came to this unknown public school...
[19:57] Taro/I
    so that he can stay in
    a battery with Kaname-kun.
[20:06] Kei
    Hey, my legs are starting to shake.
[20:08] Kei
    I don't know if it's from fatigue or fear.
[20:14] Kei
    Throw it with all you've got!
[20:16] Kei
    Bring it!
[20:23] Haruka
    Okay.
[20:59] Kusuda
    I-I've got a date with
    my girlfriend, so I'm going now.
[21:03] Mitarai
    Y-Yeah, let's go.
[21:06] Kusuda
    All of you, pick up those balls!
[21:13] Taro
    You caught it.
[21:14] Kei
    Yeah. I caught it.
[21:20] Kei
    My hand is numb.
[21:25] Haruka
    I'll make you remember
    how fun baseball is with my pitching.
[21:39] Kei
    No, no, no, I can't, I can't, I can't.
[21:42] Kei
    No, thank you.
[21:44] Kei
    I mean, take a look at my hand!
[21:47] Kei
    See? It's red.
[21:49] Kei
    It's oh so red. Ouchy.
[21:51] Kei
    I might have broken bones. For real.
[21:54] Kei
    Who would actually throw
    a ball with all they've got?!
[21:57] Kei
    I'm never playing baseball again!
[22:00] Kei
    Haru-chan, you idiot!
[22:02] Kei
    Yama-chan, you doo-doohead!
[23:40] Kei
    Look at my swollen left hand!
[23:42] Kei
    Like this, no one's gonna
    want me as their groom!
[23:44] Taro
    Being a catcher can be dangerous.
[23:46] Taro
    I've heard tales about catchers
     taking a bat to the head.
[23:49] Kei
    Is being a catcher present-day torture?
