Vol. 200 - Hypnosis
1-2: clamor
3: What is WRONG with you?!
4: Pulling such a stunt during a formal game...
5: I can't believe you.
6: I've never heard of a coach going to another's mound or bench during a game like that.
7: Won't this be problematic later? Hyahya!
8: You sound so happy.

83)
1: But Kawakami swung, so he probably ignored his sign.
2: I wonder if the coach got mad at him.
3: Fuh!
4: It'd be ridiculous to expect him not to swing in a situation like that, though.
5: Chiba probably really wanted to praise Kawakami for that, though.
6: Praise him?
7: For his true reality.
8: Sasazaki's true reality.
9: An extreme attack formation
10: was Sasazaki's original form, after all.

84)
1-2: Bottom of the ninth...
3: One more point left...!
4: We've been fighting with the kings, Sasazaki, up until now...
5: and we've finally made it this far...!
6: It's painful not to see my name over there, but...
7: But I'm fighting too! Along with everyone!

85)
1: Bottom of the ninth! Futagotamagawa Academy's attack formation begins with
2: #6 right fielder, Okada-kun!
3: Watch the ball closely!
4: Okada! Calm down!
5: Right fielder, Okada-kun!
6: Hooo...
7: Okada...
8: Okada, Hiyama, Yufune...one is enough...just bring one of them out...!
9: I have no proof, but...I have the feeling that something's going to happen!
10: If only we can connect it to Hiratsuka!

86)
1: If only one of them can get on a base,
2: Kawatou will probably use me immediately regardless of who the batter is.
3: But if we get two outs without anyone landing on a base...
4: Then I'll have to bear the burden of a deadlock home run along with Yufune...
5: But...that won't be enough...
6: If it comes to that, my meaning as a batter will be halved...
7: I...
8: I'm the one who's gotta shine as the goodbye batter!!

87)
1: Play!
2: Dammit...I'll show you...
3: Just watch me...
4: I'm gonna hit a deadlock homer...
5: Okada...
6: Okadaaaaaa!

88)
1: Striiiike!
2: Ohhh...
3: Th...there it is...
4: So...fast...
5: Kuh...
6: Kawakami...
7: Kawakami!
8: That's our boy...
9: Niiiiice, Kawakamiiiii!
10: Now just three more!
11: Blow 'em out of there!

89)
1: Ahhh...
2: Okadaaaa! Your swing was too slow!
3: Kuh...
4: Yu...Yufune, c'mon over here for a second.
5: Huh? What?
6-8: Kawakamiiii!
9: "Stay true
10: to the dreams of thy youth."
11: Fuh...
12: Weirdo...
13: Striiiike!

90)
1: Huh?! What's going on?!
2: Just watch it.
3: I'm gonna put hypnosis on you now.
4: And you're gonna become the fastest batter on this planet!
5: Wh...what are you talking about?
6: Just sit down! None of those guys out there are gonna be able to follow that ball
anyway.
7: This is a matter of feeling.
8: If you stand up to it with a fast swing, that ball might as well not even be moving.
9: R...
10: Really?!
11: Yeah, obviously.
12: Now waaatch closelyyyy!
13: Your swings are gonna get fasterrrr, way fasterrrr!
14: That's right! Fasterrr, fasterrrr!

91)
1: Fasterrrr...
2: Fasterrr, my swings will get...
3: I'm seriously counting on you! You hit that sacrifice fly....
4: Even if Okada and Hiyama go down, you'll stand up to land on the base next.
5: I'm gonna land on the base...
6: That's right, fasterrrr...
7: I'm fine going after you.
8: Hiratsuka...
9: Striiiike!
10: Batter out!
11: Ahhhhh!

92)
1: Dammit!
2: Even knowing that it's a winning pitch fork, after seeing a ball that fast...
3: No...not quite.
4: Huh?
5: The drop of the fork is getting duller.
6: Mmm...continual forks dull one's grip.
7: Kawakami's fork is clearly losing its oomph.
8: Th...then...
9: Hiyama!
10: The fork!
11: Aim for the winning pitch fork!
12: The fork...

93)
1: Looks like things are almost over.
2: Nikogaku put up a great fight, though.
3: They took four points from Sasazaki, after all.
4: What are you saying? Things aren't over yet.
5: How could they win at this point?
6: They have Hiratsuka!
7: Nikogaku's batting trump card, Hiratsuka Taira!
8: He hit a farewell homer in the first Youga game!
9: Heh! And how are his other stats?
10: Others?
11: Leave it to me!
12: Heheh! I've got data on Nikogaku all the way down to their scrimmages!
13: kacha kacha
14: Huh?
15: He's been up to bat 29 times...
16: and hit two homers...
17: Hoh.

94)
1: And....
2: 27
3: strike-outs.
4: Gyahahaha! Are you kidding me?!
5(2b): Everything besides his home runs were strikeouts?! That's ridiculous!
6: Please!

95)
1: Kuh!
2: Oaaaahhhh!
3: Ouuuuuut!
4: Ahhhhh!
5: Yeaaaah, two outs!

96)
1: No, it's alright!
2: He hit the bottom of the fork ball just now.
3: Proof that the drop is getting duller.
4: Hey, Yufune!
5: Sorry, but we're in big trouble now...
6: Wait a minute.
7: It isn't my turn yet.
8: What?!
9: I understand you wanting to use me here in the eleventh hour.
10: Right now, though, Yufune's so hot that it doesn't even look like the ball is moving
to him.
11: Right?
12: No one can beat my batting speed!
13: I have confidence!

97)
1: #8, first baser, Yufune-kun!
2: Is...is this really OK...?
3: Leave it to me!
4: First baser, Yufune-kun!
5: Th...they aren't going to change it up...?
6: Y...you can still change your mind, Kawatou-kun!
7: W...we already have two outs!
8: Alriiiight! This is the last one! Let's goooo!
9-10: Kawakamiiiii!
11: One moooore!
12: No...
13: Let's place our bets on Yufune.

98)
1: Play!
2-6: One more!
7: Yufune said he has confidence, and I'm going to believe in him!
8: I feel something coming from him now!
9: Hiratsuka's hypnosis has given me unparalleled batting speed!
10: Bring it on! Your straight is nothing to me!
11: What's he thinking?
12: How can he have that much confidence...
13: Fufu...

99)
1: Nyaaaaaaaah
2: Striiiiike!
3: Uwah
4: Slooooooooow!
