| Tomokazu | This is....... |
| Tenma | You're in the baseball club, right. I played a catcher in a play called "First Crush Baseball". |
| ......So I'd like to form a battery with you. |
| Tomokazu | ――! |
| ....... |
| Chikage | ......? |
| Homare | His reaction seems strange somehow. |
| Izumi | （I wonder what's wrong. Tomokazu-kun fell silent......) |
| Tomokazu | Sorry, I......can't pitch right now. |
| Tenma | You can't pitch......? |
| Tomokazu | The other day, we had a come-from-behind loss in an official match. |
| It was an important match, but because of me, we had points stolen from us....... |
| Ever since that match, I've lost confidence in myself and been scared of pitching....... |
| Even now that we've entered the off-season, I haven't been able to practice pitching at all. |
| Tenma | ....... |
| Tomokazu | ......So I don't have the right to have Tenma-san catch my balls in this condition. |
| Chikage | A slump......huh. |
| Sakyo | ......Maybe it happens a lot to athletes. |
| Staff A | To think he was in such a condition....... |
| Staff B | We can't record this......Shall we stop the camera temporarily? |
| Juza | ......Please wait. |
| Tomokazu | Eh......? |
| Tenma | Juza-san? |
| Juza | Sorry for stepping in all of a sudden. |
| Um......Tenma has been constantly practising to receive your pitches. Even on weekends and after acting practice....... |
| So......Tenma will definitely catch whatever ball you throw. I'll guarantee it. |
| Tenma | ......! |
| ......Ahh. |
| You can throw at me without thinking about anything. No matter what, I'll catch them. |
| You won't get another chance like this in your lifetime. |
| Tomokazu | ――. |
| ......I'll do it. Please let me do it! |
| |
| Tomokazu | ......Here I go! |
| Tenma | Ahh......Bring it on! |
| Tomokazu | ―― gh! |
| Tenma | ......It's a strike. |
| Tomokazu | I did it......I was able to pitch! |
| Thank you very much! Somehow, I......I think I can pitch again! |
| Juza | ......Good for you. |
| Itaru | Ahh, and with Tomokazu-kun's dream fulfilled....... |
| Sakyo | Tonight, MANKAI Company will put on a special play. |
| Homare | This is an invitation. |
| Tomokazu | Invitation......? I'll be able to see the troupe Tenma-san is in perform? |
| Chikage | That's right. |
| Tenma | Come watch our play. |
| Tomokazu | ――. |
| ......Yes! |
