Ipin: Here you go.

Ipin: They taste better when you eat with someone else!

Chrome: It's delicious.

Chrome: Thank you.

Haru: Eek! Someone's there.

Ipin: Ah, Haru-san! Kyoko-san!

Kyoko: Good morning.

Kyoko: Are you helping clean up?

Chrome: I-I'm sorry...

Chrome: Um, I'll try harder to...

EpTitle: Target For My Friends

Haru: Eek!

Haru: The nosy lady next door was elected mayor!

Kyoko: The new fad is to keep a Tsuchinoko as a pet!

Lambo: Lemme see too!

Lambo: Hey, lemme see!

Ipin: Lambo, don't pull!

Tsuna: Yeah?

Bianchi: What are you all looking at?

Tsuna: Bianchi!

Kyoko: When we went home the other day, Gokudera-kun...

Haru: ...bought a newspaper from this time!

Bianchi: A newspaper?

Ryohei: The Extreme Times!

Gokudera: It's the Namimori Times, dimwit!

Giannini: Wow! I haven't seen a newspaper in ages.

Giannini: These days, almost % of the news

Giannini: is found through the internet or mobile devices.

Kyoko: Ah! The four-panel comic I loved is still going!

Haru: I was obsessed with it too!

Gokudera: Bah, must be nice to be able to relax.

Gokudera: Getting all excited over a comic...

Tsuna: Now, now...

Gokudera: Well, it's okay for the girls and kids,

Gokudera: but where's Yamamoto?

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: Now that you mention it, I wonder where he went.

Gokudera: Man...

Gokudera: The battle with Byakuran is coming up.

Gokudera: He's taking it way too easy.

Tsuna: Gokudera-kun!

Tsuna: Shh! Shh!

Yamamoto: Oh, whatcha doing?

Tsuna: Yamamoto.

Gokudera: We were talking about you, baseball brain!

Yamamoto: You always call me that.

Yamamoto: What are you all looking at?

Tsuna: Huh? What?

Tsuna: Oh, the preliminaries for a baseball tournament.

Tsuna: Namimori Middle is playing tomorrow.

Yamamoto: Their opponent is Okawari Third Middle, huh?

Tsuna: Namimori was strong when you played for them, right?

Yamamoto: Yeah, but how about now?

Tsuna: Do you know, Giannini?

Giannini: N-No, that I don't know...

Ryohei: Does anyone?

Haru: Hey, I know.

Haru: Tsuna-kun, where's Kusakabe-san?

: Huh?

Futa: She's right, Big Tsuna.

Futa: Kusakabe-san should know.

Tsuna: That's right.

Tsuna: Let's ask him.

Tsuna: I'm a little curious, myself.

Yamamoto: Oh.

Yamamoto: Yeah...

Yamamoto: That's right...

Gokudera: Man, this is a waste of time...

Kusakabe: I hate to say it, but in the years after Yamamoto-san graduated,

Kusakabe: the Namimori Middle baseball team has been on the decline.

Kusakabe: They've exited the preliminaries in the first round the past five or six years.

Yamamoto: So I wasn't able to do anything for my underclassmen...

Kusakabe: And there are many troublemakers causing disturbances.

Kusakabe: I've heard rumors of the team being shut down.

Gokudera: What a waste of time.

Gokudera: It'd be one thing if they were good, but if they're falling apart...

Tsuna: Go-Gokudera-kun!

Bird: Lain with verdure...

Bird: in Namimori...

On Screen: ,Baseball Team

Yamamoto: It looks like they really are making a mess of things.

Yamamoto: Prelims are tomorrow and nobody's here...

Yamamoto: It's a mess in here, huh?

Yamamoto: That's...

Yamamoto: Three consecutive regional championships!

Yamamoto: Looks like it did when I was a third-year.

Yamamoto: "I'll do my best for my friends," huh?

Yamamoto: Back then, I...

Yamamoto: This place is a dump.

Hibari: What are you doing?

Yamamoto: Hibari!

Hibari: As a member of the Disciplinary Committee,

Hibari: I cannot allow you to disturb this school.

Yamamoto: W-Wait! Take a good look!

Yamamoto: I'm not messing the place up!

Yamamoto: I'm cleaning!

Yamamoto: I was almost bitten to death.

Yamamoto: He sure doesn't hold back when Nami Middle's involved.

Gokudera: Yamamoto!

Gokudera: Baseball brain!

Tsuna: What is it, Gokudera-kun?

Gokudera: Yamamoto ran off somewhere!

Tsuna: Huh?

Tsuna: But he was with us a second ago...

Gokudera: He came back with us, but the next thing I knew, he was gone.

Gokudera: Did you see him, Turf top?

Ryohei: No, never saw him, Octopus head.

Gokudera: Man...

Gokudera: The fight with Byakuran and the real six Funeral Wreaths is coming up.

Gokudera: And he's wandering around?

Gokudera: What's going on in that guy's head?!

Tsuna: Oh, maybe...

Gokudera: You know where he might be, boss?

Yamamoto: There, it's all neat and tidy.

: Ready, guys?

Boys: Huh?

Yamamoto: You must be the first-year subs.

Boys: Huh?

Yamamoto: Don't be shy.

Boy: We all joined the baseball team to be like Yamamoto-senpai!

Yamamoto: Like me?

Yamamoto: I mean, my brother?

Boy: Yes!

Boy: An incredible six consecutive home runs!

Boy: Seven consecutive intentional walks!

Yamamoto: Keep your eye on the ball!

Yamamoto: Catch it before the hop!

Boy: O-Okay!

Yamamoto: Next one's headed for left field!

Boy: Let me have it!

Tsuna: Ah, I knew it.

Gokudera: That guy doesn't have time to waste on baseball.

Gokudera: Bah.

Tsuna: Ah, Gokudera-kun!

Gokudera: Boss.

Gokudera: Let go. I'm gonna give him an earful!

Gokudera: Boss?

Tsuna: I haven't seen Yamamoto enjoy himself like that in a long time.

Yamamoto: Catch the ball with both hands!

Yamamoto: Here it comes!

Gokudera: That's true...

Yamamoto: Well done!

Gokudera: Between the Millefiore and Byakuran, there hasn't been time.

Gokudera: But he's one of the Vongola Guardians,

Yamamoto: Yeah, that's more like it!

: Okay, coming at you!

Gokudera: and a Shigure Soen Ryu swordsman.

Tsuna: But Yamamoto is actually...

Tsuna: I'm sure that... if the world was at peace...

Tsuna: If Byakuran had never showed up...

Yamamoto: Heads up, right field!

Yamamoto: Sorry about that!

Boys: Thank you very much!

Yamamoto: No prob. Keep it up.

Boys: Yes!

Yamamoto: Oh, wait up!

Boys: Huh?

: Okay?

Boys: Yes!

Lambo: Hey, hey, is it ready yet?

Haru: We're almost done.

Lambo: Lambo-san wants omelettes!

Ipin: I like octopus-shaped sausages!

Kyoko: Don't worry.

Kyoko: There will be omelettes and octopus-shaped sausages.

Haru: Here's the fried chicken!

Kyoko: Great. I'm done here too.

Kyoko: Finish with some fruit for dessert...

Haru: Okay! All done!

Both: The "special Go-Go Nami Middle lunch"!

Both: Yay!

Haru: Okay! We'll take this with us and cheer for the baseball team!

Kyoko: Uh-huh, and we can invite everyone else.

Lambo: Ah! Stupidera!

Lambo: We're gonna watch baseball!

: Huh?

Haru: Will you join us, Gokudera-san?

Gokudera: Don't bother me with that crap!

Gokudera: There's business to take care of.

Tsuna: Ah, Yamamoto...

: Huh?

Tsuna: Kyoko-chan and the others want to go cheer

Tsuna: for the Nami Middle baseball team.

Tsuna: You should join them.

Yamamoto: Eh... I'll pass.

Tsuna: Huh? Why?

Yamamoto: It's not that important.

Tsuna: But...

Reborn: Nothing will change if you turn the other way.

Tsuna: Reborn...

Reborn: You have to look at what's before you,

Reborn: or you won't be able to move forward.

Yamamoto: Kid...

Reborn: You're already over it, right?

Tsuna: Yeah, let's go!

Tsuna: Okay?

Tsuna: We can invite Gokudera-kun and the whole g*ng!

N: Next is the second match in the first round of today's preliminaries:

N: Okawari Third Middle against Namimori Middle.

Kusakabe: Sure you want to sit up here, Kyo-san?

Umpire: Bow!

All: Have a clean game!

Boy: Do your best!

Boy: The Yamamoto-senpai spirit!

Both: Go Namimori Middle!

Lambo: Lambo-san's here to root for you!

Ipin: I love baseball!

Giannini: I'm getting pumped!

Bianchi: This isn't bad, for a change of pace.

Futa: Yep, I'm getting excited.

Gokudera: Man...

Gokudera: He's gonna get it if he says he still wants to play baseball.

Tsuna: It's about to start.

Yamamoto: Yeah, I'm starting to feel nervous.

Yamamoto: It's a lot easier when I'm playing...

Ryohei: We've gotta put our guts into our cheers!

Kyoko: Ryohei?

Tsuna: Wh-What's he going to do?

Ryohei: Extreme victory guaranteed!

Ryohei: Guts! Don't lose!

Ryohei: Big hit! Big hit!

Ryohei: Nami Middle!

Ryohei: What's wrong?

Ryohei: What's with the scary silence?

Gokudera: Th-That moron...

Tsuna: Th-There's nothing wrong with cheering...

Bianchi: But the other team is batting right now.

Ryohei: Oh! Sorry about that!

Tsuna: Ryohei hasn't changed...

Reborn: It's awfully quiet around here with everyone out.

Basil: Why didn't you go, Reborn-san?

Reborn: Because there's the non-³ Policy, my weakness, outside.

Basil: Ah, that's right.

Reborn: That's...

Reborn: The Helper's Book you found when you came to this time, huh?

Basil: Yes. The Japanese samurai spirit within me

Basil: is stirred every time I read it.

Basil: A world in the shadows!

Basil: Bushido is the search for death!

Reborn: You actually get it, for once.

Basil: Of course! I studied the Japanese spirit, and their culture as well.

Basil: As you can see, I'm able to sit and meditate.

Lambo: They scored again!

Lambo: Well?

Lambo: It's all thanks to my cheering!

Gokudera: Idiot.

Gokudera: Why are you celebrating when the other team scores?!

Tsuna: - in the top of the fifth...

Bianchi: That's tough...

Ryohei: No biggie! It's only the fifth inning!

Ryohei: You have until the twelfth round to mount a comeback!

Gokudera: This isn't boxing!

Gokudera: Middle school baseball only goes seven innings!

Ryohei: Then go for a KO!

Ryohei: Go, surging rush!

Gokudera: You're about as mature as Lambo...

Tsuna: A two run homer!

Tsuna: Ten runs...

Futa: The last two runs were especially bad.

Bianchi: At this rate, we'll have a called game.

Lambo: Hey, hey.

Lambo: What's a "cold" game?

Lambo: Is it cold and yummy?

Ipin: It's not food!

: Wha-?

Giannini: If a team is up by ten or more runs at the end of the fifth inning,

Giannini: it's game over.

Lambo: Whoo-hoo!

Lambo: Game over!

Gokudera: Idiot!

Gokudera: We're losing!

Lambo: Game over!

Gokudera: Shut up, stupid cow!

Kyoko: Go, Nami Middle!

Haru: Fight!

Ipin: Focus on the ball!

Catcher: Got it!

Ryohei: Make an extreme counterattack!

Tsuna: It's the bottom of the fifth now...

Guy: Well, that's that.

Guy: I'm tired, so let's get this over with.

Boy: S-Senpai...

Boy: You... You can't give up yet...

Guy: Can't you do the math?

Guy: It's -.

Guy: We can't win!

Boy: But...

Boy: But!

Guy: Shut your trap!

Guy: Why don't you go out there, then?!

Boy: Huh?

Guy: I'd like to see you try.

Guy: Go embarrass yourself.

Guy: Manager, we need a batter change.

Guy: My shoulder's k*lling me.

Guy: Change, change!

N: There has been a change in the lineup.

N: The fourth batter, Ochiai-kun, has been replaced

N: by a pinch hitter, Mitsui-kun.

Tsuna: That boy's the one Yamamoto was coaching yesterday.

Yamamoto: Y-Yeah.

Bianchi: To send a first-year out at this point...

Bianchi: They've obviously given up on the match.

Guy: See? What a sorry show!

Ump: Play ball!

Kyoko: Hang in there!

Ipin: Focus on the ball!

Ipin: Hit good pitches!

Ryohei: Extreme batting form time!

Yamamoto: Keep fighting to the last!

Yamamoto: It's over if you give up!

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Yamamoto: You aren't fighting by yourself!

Yamamoto: Didn't you hear me yesterday?!

Yamamoto: Do your best for your friends.

Boy: Yeah! Don't give up!

Boy: Don't give up, Mitsui!

Guy: Huh?

Boys: Don't give up!

Boys: Do your best!

Ump: Play ball!

Ump: Foul!

Gokudera: He barely tipped it.

Haru: But he made contact!

Ump: Foul!

N: Look out for foul ba*ls.

Ump: Foul!

Ump: Foul!

Ump: Foul!

Yamamoto: That's good!

Yamamoto: He's starting to get the right timing!

Kyoko: All right!

Haru: He did it!

Tsuna: A hit!

Gokudera: Yeah!

Ana: Pinch hitter, Suzuki-kun.

Ump: Game over!

Ump: Okawari Third Middle wins -!

All: Thank you very much!

Bianchi: They fought hard to the very end.

Futa: The first-years performed admirably.

Kyoko: It was so touching.

Haru: What a nice game!

Kusakabe: A loss which leads to a brighter future...

Kusakabe: Kyo-san.

Hibari: Losing's useless.

Hibari: Winning is everything.

Kusakabe: Kyo-san...

Ryohei: There's always next year!

Ryohei: Next year, grab that extreme win!

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Tsuna: Does he actually want to keep playing baseball?

Yamamoto: I was able to teach them well.

Tsuna: Huh?

Yamamoto: Now I can move on without having to worry.

Tsuna: Yamamoto...

Yamamoto: I'm not going to give up.

Yamamoto: I don't want any regrets.

Yamamoto: I'll do my best for my friends

Yamamoto: and defeat Byakuran.

Tsuna: Yamamoto...
