Tokyo folks are so slow.

'Been a while that the game's ended.
Get a move on!
There's folks here for the next game already.

Woah!
Check out that girl!
Where, where?
The girl in the cheerleader outfit with the ponytail.
Where, I can't see!! [handwritten] Move it Yamasaki!!

Damn that's nice!!
... It can't do.

p005

To come all the way to Koushien and still be yapping about girls, it can't do.
The third game of the day will begin at two-thirty PM.
[side note] * In Okayama dialect, "can't do" means "it won't do" or "we can't have that."

Our seniors made it here and are staking all they got on the game.
I prefer the one on the right myself.
What, seriously?

p007

....saki!
YAMASAKI!!

Get a move on!
What'cha doing? The seats're freed up.

p008

....Oh,
right, sorry.

'Ey, first years!!
[guest board] Okayama Arts University High School Baseball Team.

Y'all still awake? Get to bed, already...
Ah, sorry sempai!!

"Netto Koshien" is on now!
They might be showing us cheering in the stands.
So that's it. Well, guess there's no stopping ya.

Today's second game was between Aomori Yoshida High School representing Aomori, and Nissen Academy representing West Tokyo.

Who will walk away with the win in this showdown between the best right arms of this tournament?

From Nissen Academy's "Alps" bleachers we see the lone female player, Miyakozawa Risa, giving a hearty cheer in support of her team.

Wooo... Nissen's got a girl.

That's pretty nice.

p010

Say what? Ya think so?
"Giving a hearty cheer" they say, but looks more like the girl's wiped out.
....What's wrong with me?

Coming all the way to Koushien just to get a crush on a girl at first sight.
