The Mifune Dolphins improve their teamwork a bit during a practice match before the summer tournament, which improves their confidence.
On the other hand, having had to transfer to his mother's hometown in Gunma, Hikaru is separated from his Dolphins teammates and was having unhappy days.
In front of his grandfather and mother he bravely put up a cheerful front, but even when he is invited to join the school baseball team, he refuses right away, saying he's not in the mood.
I mean, he's in Kanagawa and I'm in Gunma, 
so we'll never see each other again!
!فهو في كاناغاوا وأنا في غونما، لذا لن نرى بعضنا مجدّدًا
Ich bin in Gunma und er in Kanagawa.
Wir sehen uns eh nie wieder.
Él está en Kanagawa y yo en Gunma.
No podremos vernos.
Él está en Kanagawa y yo en Gunma.
No podremos vernos.
De toute façon, avec la distance,
on ne pourra pas se revoir !
Del resto, io sono qui a Gunma 
e lui è a Kanagawa, non ci vedremo mai più!
Com ele em Kanagawa e eu em
Gunma, não nos veremos de novo!
Так ведь он в Канагаве,
я в Гумме, нам никак не встретиться!
