He's fat, annoying, and speaks Kansai-ben (basically the Japanese equivalent of Southern drawl? or some other accent). This translation was difficult because of him. On the + side, Kawatou is cool. As always, any comments help*
Chapter 56: Accident Pg. 160 Kawatou (later just K): 10 people’s eyes? Don’t tell me Shinjo…?
Ikebe (I): He’s at the side of the gymnasium.
Touko (T): He actually came…
K: …
I: Why don’t you go and call to one another?
K: …
T: Sensei!
Ump (U): Ball Four!
Hiyama: Don’t fuck with me! How is that a ball?
Page 161
K: Hiyama, Relax, relax!
H: What the hell are you doing? …
T: Sensei!
T: Shinjo-kun came when everyone was worried about you gathering enough players.
T: For that reason, you should go and meet him
T: He’d bring out the team’s (long-awaited) courage…
K: Just watch and wait
T: Eh?
K: Only coming to school as if anyone can do it
K: That guy has to advance the last of his several hundred meters to see whether or not he has true courage.
p. 162
T: Sensei…
I: …
K: Don’t worry.
K: That guy will come.
K: He’ll come because of his nakama/group.
Random person #1: Seriously?
Random person #2: The baseball club is…?

#2: The pitcher is…Who? Aniya?
#3: No…that guy…
Okada: Wow…so high…
O: Which way is it?
O: I don’t know…
Imaoka(?): Left you idiot, left! Once again it’s left!
O: Eh…Left? You liar…
p. 164 O: Uwa! It’s completely different!
I: What the hell are you doing?
I: It was going to be left!
I: I said to look left you idiot!
Aniya: It’s okay, just return the ball! Batter: he he he…
Coach: Why are you jogging like that you bastard! Run seriously! Moron!
B: O… Okay. (Okada throws the ball) Aniya: Oh! A strike-speed throw! (i.e. a throw as fast as a pitch) P. 165
O: …
I: oh…
O: ha ha…
I: a ha ha….
#1: Oi oi, those guys are congratulating each other…
#1: Isn’t that such a shitty baseball team?
#2: They only amateurs, you know.
#3: It’s amazing that they’re even having a match, isn’t it?
#1: Hey, Kawatou’s coming out.
#1: What? A (pitching) change?
#1: Hey you, what the hell’s Kawatou doing?
#2: How should I know?
#3: You know, these days everyone talks about how cruel and unusual that guy is.
p. 166
#3: If I remember correctly, before he came to this school he almost killed a student and as a result became unemployed.
#3: But that’s just a rumor.
#1: It doesn’t seem like him, does it?
#2: How could you think that of that guy?
Hiratsuka: A ha ha! H: I’m finally up this time!
H: After I pitch, you’re gonna lose!
Ump: Play ball!
H: Just watch me, Touko-chan
H: Here it comes, proof of my love!
p. 167
H: Wait, before that….
H: I’m all prepared.
H: My lover/sweetheart!
Ump: Balk!
Wakana: Are you a moron? What the hell are you doing, you bastard! I’ll kill you!
H: ….
Okada: Stop taking so much time, idiot!
#1: Gwa ha ha, I can’t even watch!
#2: But when that guy did that…
p. 168
#2: He changed things a bit.
p. 169
#1: Everyone, you gotta come see this!
#2: Huh? What’s going on?
#1: What the hell are they doing, changing pitchers by letter order?
#2: If they’re going with Mikoshiba, does that mean that they’re giving up?
#1: It’s gonna be a 100 point difference, huh?
#2: Nah, it’s the top of the 7th inning and it’s been stuck at 8 to 1.
#1: You liar! What kind of accident happened to make it such a normal game?
#2: I don’t know, but what will happen if they lose…I mean, when they lose.
#1: Ha ha ha
Headmaster: Huh
p. 170
Mikoshiba: Huu
Ump: Strike! Batter out!
M: Ha…ha ha
M: I got a strikeout.
Okada: Not bad, Mikoshiba!
M: Ha ha
Kawatou: Oi, nice pitch!
(Lower left character): Mikoshiba, you bastard, you’re taking too long. Hurry up and switch!
p. 171
K: Okay, there’s a 7 point difference!
K: 2 Grand Slams and we’ll have a reversal!
Team: Fuck yeah, let’s go!
T: Yeah!
K: They…they might actually win.
Coach: Why the hell aren’t you guys crushing them? Morons!
C: Only throw perfect pitches! If you can’t make them at least swing at it, then the truth is that you’re just idiots! You’re in such good pitching condition that I think even your ancestors could do it, you moron!
Pitcher: I’m…I’m sorry…
K: …
p. 172

H: Seriously?
p. 174
C: Shit, fucking shit…
K: uh….
Sumi: Ow…
K: …
C: What the hell are you doing, Sumi? Hurry up and fucking stand, you moron!
p. 175
C: Jeez, seriously he sucks…
C: This is proof he didn’t practice covering bases.
K: Hey, you!
Sumi: I’m…I’m fine. I can stand so…
Sumi: Ouch…
K: Don’t do it!
K: It’s okay to sit out for the rest of this ball game…
Player #1: Sumi…
C: You bastard, what the hell are you doing in the enemy’s hands? That sort of thing isn’t painful! (It’s only a flesh wound :P) C: Show some spirit!
Sumi: Ye…Yes.
p. 176
C: Why is Kawatou even worried about you? Now I got to come out before the end cause of his meddling!
C: He’ll stand and be okay if I help him so let go.
C: See, this moron’s in good shape.
Sumi: It doesn’t hurt.
C: Huh? What do you want?
K: When a person who raises kids doesn’t have a heart
K: They don’t have the right to be called a teacher.
p. 177
C: What the hell?
Ikebe: Kawatou-kun…hey!

Chapter 55: Kira Kira (Glittering)
Aniya: You guys got it? Absolute Victory!
Wakana: Like usual. What are you fired up about this time?
Aniya: You guys are wasting time! Isn’t anyone willing to do it? Wakana will go next! Fourth is…
Aniya: I will fucking go!
Hiratsuka: I know that!
Wakana: What are you getting mad at?
Aniya: All right! I’m gonna make this back-to-back homeruns at bat!
Wakana: Damn it, I’m definitely gonna beat him up! (Pitcher lobs the ball over Aniya’s head) Aniya: Ah, you bastard….
Okada: I don’t understand what’s with that guy…
Kawatou: Ha Ha Ha.
Kawatou: Ok, now the other team is running away.
Crowd: We’re waiting to see it! We want to see that violent swing!
Umpire: Ball Four!
Aniya: Dammit!
Crowd: All right, a runner on base! Keep it Up!
Martial Artist #1: Do you know? Today the Baseball Club is having a match!
Martial Artist #2: Seriously? Martial Artist #1: What relief team is seriously taking a chance with them? Should we go and watch?
Martial Artist #2: Don’t joke. You’ll only say “What the hell am I watching?” and see things go everywhere as long as Wakana is nearby… M 1&2: !!!! ….
(Aniya steals 2nd) Ump: Strike! Batter Out!
Wakana: What? Is it okay to steal during a strikeout? Did you forget the rules?
Kawatou: Ahaha!
Okada: Don’t “ahaha” this!
Touko: We’re in a Scoring Position! Do your best! (to Hiratsuka)
Hiratsuka: Touko-chan…I…
Hiratsuka: Uohh!!!
Ump: Strike! Strike! Strike! (Hirama, Hiratsuka and Okada all strike out) Batter Out!
(Yufune?): You bastard. The 3 of you are nothing but strike-outs.
Okada: That guy’s ball kept on curving.
Aniya: Don’t worry about the strike-outs, it’s only the 4th inning.
Okada: Aniya…
Kawatou: Okay, we haven’t changed pitchers yet. Next is (#8)…(ka ki ku ke ko sa shi su se…(he’s going through the Japanese alphabet)) Sekikawa.
Sekikawa: Ah, I’m good. Pass.
Team: Huh?
Sekikawa: I’m liking Center. To tell you the truth, it’s sort of like a wide (トコ/space) that only I can guard.
Kawatou: Sekikawa…
Sekikawa: Hehe
Kawatou: I see. Then it’s Hiyama. Hiyama: I understand.
Wakana: You bastard, just pass.
Kawatou: Then Okada is shortstop I guess. After this is #10…hmm, it’s going off a little.
Aniya: It’s puzzling work, isn’t it? I have a suggestion.
Aniya: You guys are becoming used to your (トコ/space?) and it seems that it’s easiest for Imaoka and Okada to protect it since they both have foundations in that position. I think we should switch it up.
Hiratsuka: Ho ho, so you’re trying to be the boss without having to deal with criticism and discipline. So we should just follow what you want to do?
Mikoshiba: Yeah. Aniya’s words make sense. I also think we should switch positions. I don’t really have a feel for these things I think.
Touko: Me too…
Wakana: Okay, then this time, let’s go.
Team: Oh!
Kawatou: Uhh…Hey! ….
Okada: What’s with that face?
Okada: It can’t be helped that (ドシロウト) wants to use (their/it’s/his?) head.
Okada: Today’s (トコ) is a specialist in entrusting things to one another.
Kawatou: Okada…
Okada: We became who we are because of Sensei’s request. For that reason, don’t worry about everyone and let us do things the way we like to.
Okada: Well, just watch. I’m sure the pitcher is going to have fun.
Kawatou: …
Ikebe: Hahaha, you’ve gotten 1 run Kawatou-kun?
Kawatou: Ah, Kyoutou-sensei!
Ikebe: Hou, this is a good match isn’t it? It seems like you’re good at this, doesn’t it? Kawatou: Of course.
Ump: Batter up!
Wakana: Hold up for a second.
Wakana: Let’s fucking go you bastards!
Team: …. Ouh!!
Kawatou: Ohhh!!!
Ump: Play ball!
Hiyama: Haha, Let’s fucking go!
(4-page montage)
Ikebe: The headmaster should also come here. There are 9 glittering players here…
Kawatou: Hey, do you know? These guys, with those faces, can do it…
Touko: Sensei…
Ikebe: But you know, 9 people isn’t enough by one person.
Kawatou: Huh?
Kawatou: That these guys all have their eyes on one thing isn’t enough? The baseball club is…
Ikebe: Hu hu…Come to think of it, there’s another…
Kawatou: ?
Ikebe: There’s 10 people’s eyes focused on something…
