Nice shot!
All right!
We'll stop here for today.
Subarun, let's practise some more.
It's the summer holidays, anyway!
Well, the training plan is already slightly longer than usual.
It's nowhere near enough!
You should raise it by thirty levels.
We want to participate in competitions as soon as possible!
Hey, when will we be able to participate in competitions?
I have to do some research first.
Go do it, go do it!
I want the five of us to participate as soon as we can!
Everyone wants to participate, right?
Ah... yes...
I want to try participating, too.
Oh~!
It seems fun.
Um, Hasegawa-san, we want to test our skills, too.
We're counting on you, Subarun!
Yeah.
This is bad...
Maho keeps saying things like that,
but you need at least ten people to play in an official tournament.
So, they can't participate as they are now?
Nope.
But it's too hard to tell them that now.
And who else knows about it?
Only Tomoka.
Tomoka doesn't really care about official matches, so she didn't tell the others.
I'd rather just wait for a better time to tell them.
It would be meaningless to those girls if it wasn't the five of them taking part.
That's true.

The Tragedy for Mihoshi (Beautiful Star)
Suzuritani Girls Academy?
If I remember correctly, that's the school that went to the nationals, right?
Aoi, you know a lot about it?
What are you saying?
Didn't we go to watch the finals together when we were in our second year of middle school?
The two of us...
Did we really?
Geez!
That's gross!
Sorry, but I just couldn't-
So what about it?
According to Shouji's relative,
she's a teacher at Suzuritani Elementary School.
On top of that, she's the mini-basketball club advisor.
When I talked to her about Keishin,
she said that she would gladly welcome your team,
since Suzuritani is a boarding school in the mountains.
She also said she would love to have a friendly match against your team.
Here you go.
Isn't this a good chance to let Tomoka-chan and the others experience playing against external teams?
It's just like a training camp, so go and have fun!
You guys...
Of course, President, you're going, too.
I'll tell them, so it'll be fine.
But, I...
The other side are veterans,
so it'll be better if we have one more person who's familiar with basketball.
That's right.
There are things that girls can only talk about between themselves.
That's true...
Then, I'll leave that to you.
Seems like I've got no choice.
If it's for those girls, I don't mind going.
For those girls.
What, you guys are having another training camp?
That's right.
We're going to have a practice match in the mountains.
But we won't be taking you along, Natsuhi.
Who would want to go?
That's a good thing, though.
If you don't do things like that, you won't be able to play external matches.
That's right!
Through this, we'll get stronger,
and we'll let the whole world know about us!
I'm looking forward to the training camp tomorrow.
Somehow, I'm so excited that I can't sleep.
I wonder what are our opponents will be like.
It'll be fine.
We won't lose to anyone in teamwork!
Oh~!
Onii-chan will be there, too.
Aoi-chi will come as well.
I'm looking forward to it!
Yup, let's try our best!
Yay!
Oh~
I got the joker...
Hina-chan, you shouldn't tell us.
Use the training camp as a chance to deepen your relationship with Sensei!
What are you sayi-
If it goes on like this,
Maho-chan and the other girls might take him away.
That won't happen.
They're all elementary school kids.
Well, guys are all beasts.
You should do some investigating into Sensei's background.
Do they think I'm already going out with Subaru?
Um, Subaru-san, would you like to eat some rice balls?
Did you make these, Tomoka?
Yes.
I made them this morning with my mother.
I was just getting hungry.
I'll take one, then.
That was dangerous!
I'm sorry!
I'm the one who should be sorry!
Hey, Miho-nee, why did you stop suddenly?!
Mihoshi-chan?
Hey, what's wrong?
Call an ambulance...
Miho-nee?
Hey!
Miho-nee!
Will Mihoshi-sensei be okay?
Mihoshi-chan said it's probably appendicitis.
Well, knowing her, she'll come back just fine.
That's right.
Oh~!
Mihoshi is strong!
We should hurry, or Mii-tan will worry about us.
They should be waiting for us, too.
We have four more kilometres to go.
That's nothing!
Let's work hard for Mii-tan, too!
Oh!
Amazing.
They have specialised training facilities,
so they can produce elite players.
Somehow, it seems like an evil organisation.
Maho.
Are you the students from Keishin?
Um...
I am the advisor of the mini-basketball club,
Nobidome Hatsue.
I'm sorry we're late.
I'm the coach of Keishin Academy, Hasegawa Subaru.
Thank you very much for inviting us.
Invite?
Never mind.
More importantly, where's the advisor, Takamura-sensei?
Yes.
Like we told you over the phone, she's been taken to hospital.
Before we received the diagnosis, we couldn't-
Still, it's quite irresponsible for a teacher to allow students to come here by themselves.
Hey, what's with that?
Mii-tan did her best to bring us here!
She said she would be fine and told us to go and play the match!
She is not irresponsible!
Oh~!
That's right!
I've heard what you wanted to say.
I shall bring you inside for now.
What about training?
If I introduced you to the team now, it would ruin our schedule.
You wouldn't mind if I introduced you to them tomorrow?
During this period, you shall be resting here.
Um, this is...
We did say that this was a camp.
We never heard about that!
That's strange.
We shall confirm the details regarding that issue.
Um, is there any way for us to stay in the dormitories?
No.
There have been no requests for it.
That's...
The food and shower services have been provided cheaply.
Please set up your tent before it gets dark.
Please wait!
There's one guy, and the rest are girls.
It could cause lots of issues...
Of course, if something indecent occurs,
you'll be forever shamed.
Please reconsider your decision!
Subaru has a habit of being quite perverted,
so he might do something weird to the kids.
It's insulting!
I was more worried about you and Hasegawa-kun, though.
I'm not in that kind of relationship with Subaru.
It also appears that you have not made any preparations for camping.
Shall I call off the training session?
Wait a moment please!
This is the first external training experience for us,
and the children are really looking forward to this!
We definitely won't cause any problems for you!
Understood.
Therefore, I will make the final decision when Takamura-sensei contacts me.
What should we do, Subaru?
We're doing this for the match.
For now, let's all set up the tent.
Saki, do we just need to put these pegs into the ground?
Yup.
Use that hammer over there.
Oh~!
Roll, roll.
Roll, roll, roll, roll!
Airi, Hina got away~
Cute...
But Hina-chan, I need to use that groundsheet.
No way~
Hina-chan!
They're all such good girls.
Yeah.
We did it!
Yay, it's done!
Thank goodness.
Amazing!
You're done already!
Who is this?
Who knows...
You must be Hasegawa-kun.
Then, is this young lady over here President-chan?
I'm sorry.
Shouji was supposed to tell you about the camping, but it looks like she didn't.
Um...
May I ask who you are?
I'm a second year student at Suzuritani Girls Academy's High School Division, Nobidome Manaka.
I'm the temporary coach of the mini-basketball team.
[Name] Nagatsuka Saki
[Nickname] The Queen of Ice «Ice Age»
[Birth Date] July 1st
[Blood Type] O
[Class] Grade 6, Class C
[Height] 148cm
[Speciality] Her speed at card games. She is known as the Speed Queen.
[First Swimsuit] It was a pink, frilly bikini.
Now it's part of her dark history (whenever she discusses it).
[First Swimsuit] It was a pink, frilly bikini.
Mo-kan!
So you're Nobidome-sensei's younger sister?
Yup, that's right.
In middle school, were you the girls' basketball team's number 4?
How do you know that?
We watched Suzuritani Middle School's match once.
Right, Subaru?
Yeah.
I remember now!
The one who scored points from the three-point line!
You sure are mentioning some cheerful things, aren't you?
Well, I'm resting for this season though.
Anyway, we've got to get the food.
There's a stream with really nice water up ahead.
Subarun, it's a stag beetle!
You're right!
They're rare.
Hey, I want to take a photo!
I want to use it for my research project.
Subarun, a little more to the right.
Oh~!
Maho, good luck!
Don't fall off, Maho-chan!
Just a little more...
Ah, it flew away!
That's dangerous!
Subaru!
That was painful.
I'm sorry, Subarun.
Let's give up on the stag beetle and get to the stream quickly!
Come on, everyone, let's go!
Geez, whose fault do you think it is?
Here we go!
Why is he still smiling even though he was in such pain?
You should do some investigating into Sensei's background.
Everyone's going ahead, Aoi-chan.
Yes!
Take this, Saki!
Hey, what are you doing?
Payback!
Take this, everyone!
Maho!
Oh~!
We're wet~!
It's cold, but it feels good!
There, there!
What is it?
You're very suspicious when you stare at them so intently.
What do you mean, "suspicious"?
It's just that their innocence is cute to look at.
Subarun, come here and join us!
Sure!
He means cute in the normal way, right?
But, he might be looking at them in that way!
Shiny Rice
This should do it.
Mother
Hello?
Subaru-kun?
I just arrived at the hospital.
How is Miho-nee?
As she thought, it was appendicitis.
She has to undergo surgery.
It's okay.
She was still talking cheerfully just a while ago.
She's just worried about everyone because she can't take part in the training camp.
We'll be fine somehow, so tell her that.
Thanks for calling.
Staff Room
She's undergoing surgery?
That means Takamura-sensei won't be able to attend the training camp at all.
I'm terribly sorry.
If she's sick, it can't be helped!
Geez, stop bullying them, Onee-chan.
I'm not bullying them.
We don't mind camping outside, but please don't cancel the training camp, for the children's sake!
Please!
Understood.
Then it shall proceed as planned.
Thank you very much!
Let's eat!
Maho, you're putting too much in!
It's fine!
Curry isn't delicious unless it's spicy.
Will Mihoshi-sensei's surgery go smoothly?
My mother will be there, so it'll be fine.
It would be great if she can get better quickly.
Hina will pray!
That's right.
Let's all pray.
Oh~!
Thank you for helping us negotiate with Nobidome-sensei.
I didn't do anything.
Oh, that's right.
What are your plans for bathing?
Everyone will go, right?
We'll go!
We sweated quite a bit, too.
Got it.
However, there's one problem.
I'm really sorry, Hasegawa-kun!
It's a girls school, so there are no male baths.
It's fine.
We'll see you.
Onii-chan should just go in with us.
He can't do that, Hina!
We're off!
We're sorry, Hasegawa-san.
Hina, how was it?
What's Manaka-chi's cup size?
Oh~!
It's a B-cup!
Airi wins!
I'm fine with not winning!
Hey, Airi.
How do you get your breasts to grow so big?
I wouldn't know anything about that!
Aoi-chi's also quite big.
They definitely have something in common.
Something in common?
Oh~!
Their names begin with "A".
Oh!
That's it!
Then, should we call you Aho from now on?
TL Note: "Aho" means "idiot" in Japanese.
But, Amoka is pretty weird.
My parents carefully chose my name for me.
I don't want to change it.
Tomo, you're taking it too seriously.
This feels good.
Just what I'd expect from an elite school. The facilities are great.
Hey.
Aoi-chan, you like Hasegawa-kun, right?
It's so obvious.
It's not true!
That's-
But his relationship with the girls is so good, it's worrisome, right?
Senpai...
I hit the nail on the head, it seems.
Well, a coach and his students do have a special relationship.
Is that really the case?
If you want, I'll help you out.
At a training camp, there'll be plenty of chances.
Right?
Ah, I'm doing it wrong.
I should do some push-ups before I wipe off my sweat.
41...
42...
43...
44...
If someone saw me now...
It's a monstrous, giant salamander!
Help!
Um, I'm not-
Wait, a giant salamander?
Being seen was pretty bad.
Subaru-san!
Welcome back.
Sorry, I thought you guys were still in the bath.
I had something I wanted to do.
Something you wanted to do?
If you're okay with it, would you like to join me, Subaru-san?
I'm sorry.
Since it's dark...
It's nothing!
Um...
Thank you.
It's beautiful.
Thank you, Tomoka.
If I'd been alone, I probably wouldn't have thought about looking at this beautiful, starry sky.
Thank you.
It's nothing.
I'm happy that I got to see the stars with you.
I have some stars that I want to see,
but it seems like they only appear in winter.
So I'm planning to go stargazing again in winter.
I see.
What are the names of these stars?
It's a secret.
When we go to look at them again, tell me the names.
Yes.
Tomo, welcome back.
Did you manage to see the stars?
Yup.
What are the two of you doing outside?
What are you talking about, Subarun?
Mi no hi~ Goro goro~
We were waiting for you!
Minna moshi goro goro~ Minna moshi goro goro~
We wanted to ask you about who's sleeping where.
Mi no hi~ Goro goro~
Ah, we didn't think about that.
Well, you're free to sleep anywhere.
Minna moshi goro goro~ Minna moshi goro goro~
I'll sleep near the entrance.
Then, I'll sleep next to you.
I can't let you sleep next to the children.
Yeah, whatever.
His face is too close.
In the end, I was so aware of him, I couldn't sleep.
It's a good chance to watch how other schools practise,
so let's try to learn something from them.
Let's steal their moves!
You're all pumped up.
I wonder if we can keep up with their practice.
It'll be fine.
We just have to follow them as best as we can.
Oh~!
Let's do our best!
Oh!
A male!
The one from last night...
Sensei!
Why is there a male in Miyu's holy court?!
This sports hall doesn't have a rule stating that males aren't allowed to enter.
Having a male supervisor is normal.
That aside, to think that we're having combined practice with these amateurs who're wearing uniforms like that!
Even though we have an important match ahead of us!
Of course, we will not let them interfere with our regular players.
We will have the students from Keishin practice with our lower year students.
But, Onee-chan!
That's not good enough.
At least take a look at these girls' abilities!
That's right, that's right!
We won't lose that easily!
Oh~!
Everyone's strong.
You seem to have quite a lot of confidence.
There seems to be only five of you though.
Have you ever taken part in an official match?
We're going to take part!
So for that to happen, we'll defeat you first!
What's so funny?
To think that you were such an amateur.
You don't seem to know, so I'll enlighten you.
In order to participate in an official mini-basketball tournament,
your team must have at least ten people. Otherwise you can't take part.
To think that you want to beat Miyu and the rest of us without knowing such a thing.
It means you're a hundred years too early!
Also, normally, someone is supposed to tell you this.
Well...
I'm sorry.
Maho!
