Page 135:
Summer: NNnnnn
NNnnnn
that's my first time hearing this!
Li'l ol' me hasn't heard aaaanything about this! [Anything big/bold]
SFX: BURU BURU
Toki: Well, ya did sign the club entry form, Summer.
For the "Ring Team". [quote bold]
Sum: No way!
I'm shuffling through my whole brain and there's no data on that!
Maybe I didn't save.
Toki: You don't mind joining the Ring Team, do you?
Your beloved Asuka-senpai is their manager, after all.
Sum: Huh? Seriously?!
Toki: What? You didn't even know that?
Sum: Seriously~~~~?! Are you being serious with me right now, Toki~~~~?!
Toki: Seriously.
Sum: Is that right? Then Asuka-senpai was scouting me, her beloved, I guess~~~~
Person: You should quit that Ring Team,
Hanagata-kun.
Sum: Mu?
Title: Ring6: Dream Story

Page 136:
Sum: HUUUUUH?! WHAT IS THIS?!
A new species?!!
Person: I'm Nobumi, I'm the manager of the "track-and-field team'.
Nice to meet you! [Heart]
Sum: Huh?
Nobumi: I came to see you.
Hanagata-kun, you came into this school as someone recommended for the track-and-field team, right?
Sum: Huh?
Uh........ Er.......
Wha?
Was I?

Page 137:
Nobumi: The advisor and everyone on the team will be awaiting you.
Maybe pop in today if you get a chance.
Sum: No waaaay! This ain't good, Toki. Do I have to join the track-and-field team?!
Toki: Well, usually that's how it goes... With you being recommended and everything.
Nobumi: You wouldn't...
SFX: PITA
Nobumi: say you're going to join the "Ring Team", right?
The one with that clumsy manager with the irritating kansai dialect...
Sum: Whu?
SFX: PIKU
Nobumi: You really should quit.
You'd only be chasing after some crazy dream that sounds nice but would never work out...
Sum: Hey, hold on, Erotic-kappa!
Handwritten: Erotic-kappa?
SFX: NMA!
Sum: Who are you calling a clumsy manager?
And what's a nice sounding dream that would never work out?

Page 138:
Nobumi: Oh? What's wrong? You sound annoyed, Hanagata-kun.
Huhu... How cute.
Sum: The manager with the kansai dialect,
is it Asuka-senpai you're talking about?
Nobumi: Oh... You know her? She's in the same class as me.
She's always going on about 'dominating nationals' all the time... [quote bold]
But our school's Ring Team has never even made it to nationals...
Sum: ......
Nobumi: Dominating nationals? That's a dream within a dream...
Makes you want to tell her to get her head outta the clouds.
Toki: ......
Nobumi: So Hanagata-kun, rather than waste your youth, something you only get one chance at, on that clumsy dream story, ["clumsy dream story" bold]
There's no doubt in my mind that spending your time on the track-and-field team which has actual results to our name will be more fulfilling...
There's really nothing to think about, is there?

Page 139:
Sum: DYAHAHAHAHA Yeah.
Definitely nothing to think about.
Nobumi: Hm?
Sum: Going through youth without a single dream...?
What's attractive about a bunch of meaningless achievements?
I've made up my mind... I'm joining the "Ring Team"...!!
Nobumi: -----Wha?
You cheeky little......
Toki: Summer...
Sum: They're good things, ain't they? Dream stories...?
If "conquering nationals" is Asuka-senpai's dream...
then I'll just have to make it come true......!!

SFX: KIIN KOOHN KAAN KOOHN
Somebody: But it's we~~~~ird!
What is?
SFX: PACHI
Toki: Somebody who entered the school on a recommendation
choosing to go to another club on his own, and they're just allowing it that easily?
Sum: I guess my scalding passion must've gotten through to them!
My utter devotion to the Ring Team...
Toki: Uh, but you were just annoyed at that girl insulting Asuka-senpai, weren't you?
Guy: Well, about that... That's just because of how this school is.
Toki: Hm?
Ah!
You're...

Page 143:
Toki: Super-long-hair-kun!
Guy: Hey.
Sum: Who is this guy...?
Toki: Super-long-hair-kun. He's in our class.
Uh...
Misugi: I'm Misugi.
Nice to meetcha, Summer.
Sum: Hm?
Misugi: I'm on the "Ring Team", too...
Guess we'll be out there giving it our all together.
Hey, practice is about to start.
Let's get going, Summer.
Sum: Man, his hair's long!!

Page 144:
Guys: What did you mean...
Because that's how this school is, Misugi?
Misugi: Well... This school's famous for our skill at sports...
So we've got a lot of recommendation slots.
Every team's full of elites scouted from comes from middle schools all over the place...
Like Summer...
But even among those recruits, most of them... quit the teams in under a month...
Usually because they can't keep up with the rigorous practices...
Toki: .......
Sum: Hmm...
So basically...

Page 145:
Misugi: If people who aren't really into it just join because they're forced
they just end up quitting, so it ends up as just a waste of time...
Toki: .........
I see...
So that's why they didn't refuse Summer......
In Bubble: It was all purposeful.
Sum: Ya know...
That kinda...
puts a bad taste in my mouth.
Handwritten: HMM
Sum: That Ero-kappa...
So the reason she didn't stop me
was to make me regret it because of how hard it'd be......!!
Misugi: OWOWOWOW!
You're stepping on it, man!
Sum: Ah, sorry.

Page 146:
You: Hey, first years!!
You're late, dammit!!
Hurry it up!
Toki: Oh.
Misugi: Sorry, Saori.
Sum: AAAA! Saori, you bastard! What, are you trying to look cool by being all diligent on your own and shit?!
You: Ah?
What is it, Summer...?
Why're you here?
Sum: That's because I'm the guy that accepted an offer directly from Asuka-senpai!
The Ring Team's hope, the Super Rookie has arrived...!! ["Super Rookie has arrived" big/bold]

Page 147:
You: Huuuuh? Yer kiddin' me!
You really joined?
There's no way you'll make it in here. You should quit. ["You should quit" bold.]
Sum: You idiot!
My goal is "conquering nationals"!
Until I achieve that, I'm not quitting no matter what happens!!
You: Heh?
You're really inta this?
Sum: M......
Mmmm, well, I won't deny that I've got a touch of love fever.
You: Okay, fine. For now, just hurry and get ready.
First years have a lot 'a work!
Handwritten: And I could really use some help!
Asuka: S... Summer-kun...
I was really impressed... by what you just said...
Sum: !!!!
Huh...?
ASHUKAH!
SENPYAI!
SFX: URU URU (Tearing up)

Page 148:
Asuka: "Conquering nationals"... That's always been my dream, too......
Sum: Huh?
HUH?! HUWHAHAH?
Fer real?
What a coincidence!
We've got the same dream, eh?
Toki: Oh, come on...
Asuka: I really... hope that dream comes true one day...
Winning all of nationals...
Sum: It will!!
I'll make it come true for you tomorrow!!
We'll toss each other into the air to celebrate our victory!!
Asuka: Uh... Really? I don't think it's gonna happen tomorrow, though...
Sum: Aaaaaall right! Let's do thiis!! Koushien, here we coooome!!!
Asuka: ............
Baseball?
T/N: Koushien Stadium is where the high school baseball nationals are held.
Toki: That guy's the kinda guy who'll always do something if he says he's gonna...
Asuka: Ah, Tokida-kun!
Toki: Though he's a beginner when it comes to Ring...
Asuka: What about you, Tokida-kun? Have you joined any clubs?
Toki: Ah, no. I still haven't joined anywhere....

Page 149:
Nobumi: What's that noooow? Inviting people again?
I think it's time you put an end to this vain struggle of yours, Asuka.
Asuka: Ah.
Nobumi!
Nobumi: Huhu.
Sum: MUMUMU!
This evil aura...!
Couldn' be...
SFX: SO~~~
Sum: UWAAA! It is! It's here!
The Ero-kappa has appeared once again!!
Nobu: I heard there are only 6 new people joining the Ring Team this year, is that right?
Must be tough being on such an unpopular teaaaam, Asuka... Huhu.
Sum: Muh.
SFX: PIKU

Page 150:
Nobumi: What's the result of all your frantic inviting. Don't you think you should be worried about the club's future at this point?
Forget nationals, you might end up not having enough players to hold a match soon---- Huhu... And that'll be the end of your dream.
Asuka: Th... That isn't so................ I mean, sure we haven't got that many new members......
But I think everyone that's joined this year has "enthusiasm"... And I'm sure if we keep working hard, we'll gather more people...!
Nobu: Huhu... I see. Says you... Then gather 10 members or more in the week-long provisional club enrollment period!
If you can't do that, then quit the Ring Team, Asuka...
Asuka: Wh... what...? I would never say that I would quit...
Nobumi: Didn't you say before that you'd take responsibility by quitting...?

Page 151:
Asuka: I never said that!
Toki: ......
Ummmm, excuse me...
Nobumi: Hm?
Asuka: Tokida-kun...
Toki: I don't know why you're going so far to speak badly of the Ring Team, Nobumi-san...
But I don't think it's a good thing to be putting down people's dreams...
Even if you're part of another team, we're in the same school... Don't you think we should be helping each other out......?
Nobu: Uh, well... Well, you sure are eager, you cheeky kid.
Asuka: Tha's right! You're absolutely right, Tokida-kun!
Nobumi: Hmph... Then you'd better work really hard.
I'll be looking forward to seeing how many people you've got a week from now...... Huhu.
Asuka: Geez...... Wha's with her? I just......... I never said a single thing about me quitting...
That Nobumi has the worst personality!
Handwritten: And her face is scary.
Toki: ...Why's there such an aura of animosity with that person?

Page 152:
Somebody: Hm~~~~... It's not just Nobumi. The clubs in this school don't really get along with each other very well...
It's like they're rivals with the teams of the same school before they're rivals to the other schools.
SFX: GYU
Misugi: Okay!
Let's get going, Summer!
Hm...
Huh?
Summer?
Asuka: And out of the lot of them...
the most powerful one is the "baseball team"!
There's 100 people on that team. Both literally and figuratively, they're our school's symbol.

Page 153:
Guys: Yamagaku~~~~
Fight!
Yeah!
Fight!

Fight!

HAA
HAA

SFX: GAH
Guy: GUIH!
UWAAh?!

Page 154:
Sum: Looks like a long, tough practice, hu~~~h?
I kinda don't think you'll be able to keep it up...
Guy: ...Huh?
Sum: I know a great team!
How 'bout you just join for a week for the provisional period?
Guy: Uh.......? ......No...
H... Hold on...
Sum: It's fi~~ne, it'll be fi~~ne!
Guy: Uh, really wanna play baseball...
Sum: I'll be great, just c'mon!
And we've got more crime scenes to get to.
Guy: Crime scenes?
Narration: 2 weeks later----
Toki: Hm~~
That's weird...
Where'd Summer get off to?
I came to see him practice...
Sum: Toki, I fou~~~nd you!
Toki: Ah!
Summer!
Where've you been...?

Page 155:
Toki: Huh?!
What the hell happened to your face, Summer?!
Sum: Yeah...... Those judo team guys are really strong, I guess......
It was really hard to get any of 'em ta come with me...
SFX: OWw...
Toki: ......Huh?
Sum: Toki... You'll come with me, won'cha...?
Guy: Oooookay! 1st and 2nd years, gather 'round!!
Okay!
Hm...?
SFX: ZURARI

Page 156:
Guy: So few!!!!
Hey, manager, are these all the first years this year?
Asuka: Ah... Y...Yes. Um... I got 6 people. ["6 people" bold.]
As of now...
Guy: Hey, hey, you guys should be putting more spirit into this, Yumiba~~~!!
Yumi: Ha~~yeah... Sorry......
Without Red here...... we couldn't be all that bold in our inviting...
Guy: I don't want excuses, moron!!
You: ......Uh,
huh?
Where's Summer?
Did he not show?
Misugi: Ah..... Well...
He was here, but he disappeared all of a sudden.
You: He throw in the towel already?
In Bubble: Before we even started?
Guy: Well... I guess we'll just have to make do with this many people. Okay, guys...
I'm the captain, Ootake.
Sum: Sorry we're laaate!!!
Guy: Hm?

Page 157:
Sum: I'm the guy who's gonna lead the Ring Team to 'conquer nationals'!!
The first year Hanagata Natsu and his comrades have arrived!!
SFX: DOOOOOON
Guy: Aaaah, Summer!
Where'd ya go?
You: Who're they...?
Auska: .....
Summer-kun!
Ootake: A... Aren't... you......
The guy that scored that miracle goal...
Who uh... are those guys?
Ain't they first years in other clubs?
Sum: Yeah, they all used to be in other clubs, but...
They said they've just gotta give this unknown sport a try!
Guy: We never said any of that...

Page 158:
Ootake: You're not saying that you...... forced people from other teams to come here?!
That's strictly forbidden at this school...!!
Sum: Strictly...?
Wha's that?
What country's language is that?
Ootake: Aw... Geez... Now I've got even more crap to take care of.
I've gotta go around to the other teams and apologize...... Looks like we've got a real problem child on our hands again this year......
Sum: Okay, everybody! For now, change clothes!!
Go make full use of our rooms!!
Guys: ......
Sum: No need to be bashful!!
I knew you were somethin', senpyai! [Heart]
Asuka: !
Sum: This year's uh... Whadda ya call it... a good harvest!
It worked out perfect, we got more than 10 people!...... ["more than 10 people" bold.]
Asuka: Ah.
Toki: Hm~~... Geez, Summer...... Is that what you did...?
Narration: Toki (victim) that ended up joining the team in all the confusion.
