When Daigo plays catch with Hikaru, he once again gets a feeling that they could form a battery.
However, at practice the next weekend, he's shocked to find out that Hikaru has suddenly moved to his mother's hometown in Gunma.
Disappointed in Hikaru for not even saying a word before leaving the Dolphins and transferring schools, Daigo lashes out at Mutsuko when she tries to talk to him.
Daigo refuses Toshiya's special catcher training and holes up in his room.
There, he gets a visitor....
And I can't do that if 
I don't get serious about it!
!ولا يمكنني ذلك إن لم أصبح جادّة فيها
Und dafür muss ich das Ganze
ernsthaft angehen.
¡No puedo hacerlo sin ir en serio!
¡No puedo hacerlo sin ir en serio!
Et pour ça,
je dois jouer sérieusement !
E sarà impossibile che ci riesca,
se non gioco seriamente!
Não posso fazer isso sem jogar a sério!
Но для этого нужно играть по-настоящему!
