Hatsumori Bemars (初森ベマーズ)

Hatsumori Bemars

This story is about what some girls from town caused.

The story of a small miracle.

Hatsumori Park

Your destined man?

That's right.

I managed to find him this time.

But Kote, hadn't you already said you had found him?

You know, that one postman.

Ah. Right, right.

"He brought my package really fast!"

Hadn't you said something like that?

Ah. You mean that...

It was just a special delivery.

What's with that?

Then, what about the previous one? The one who was hitting on you in town?

Nanamaru

Ah, that guy was no good either.

Kote

He was handing out tissues. That was all.

That really has nothing to do with your destiny...

Chopin

Kote, isn't he suspicious this time too?

No. This time, it's for real.

It is most definitely a thing of destiny.

Speaking of which, isn't what you're eating pretty strange?

Huh?

Well, I mean, as a human, you won't know when you'll die.

Wanna have some of my bun?

Don't wanna.

So what this guy told me was...

What? It's so noisy...

It's so small...

It's like a cat's tongue.

It's "like a cat's forehead", sir.

Eh- We'll be starting the foundation work for an apartment building right now.

Everybody, please leave this place promptly.

This is no joke.

As if we know anything about some apartment building, you idiot.

That's right!

If this place is gone, where will be skip out to go eat?

This is everybody's park!

You're being a nuisance, so please leave this place promptly.

Cut the crap!

If you want us to leave, tell us first what's your legal ground to do this.

This land has been bought by us, Celeb Urban Development.

Legally...

This is already our land!

Anchan, tell them something already!

What's all this ruckus?

P- President!

Gondawara Kenji

Cash.

At times like these, you let cash speak.

Huh? Isn't that Cash Gondawara?

The land transfer payment has been prepared.

Right now, we're willing to give ¥10,000 to every person who leaves.

¥10,000 for only doing the amount of exercise needed to burn 500 calories.

Well then, gather.

You have to cut the crap already!

More cash!

¥30,000 a person.

Now, gather around.

Ah... this looks bad, huh?

Excuse me!

This park is very important to all of us!

Little lady...

The landscape is bound to change all the time.

Its name...

Do you know how this park is called?

Its name?

It's called "Hatsumori Park", sir!

We call this park "The Park of Beginnings".

Our everyday starts right here.

And it's not just our everyday.

We're born in this town...

And we meet our first friend in this park.

We meet here, every day.

For us, this is the start line.

That's why we call it "The Park of Beginnings".

Why, isn't that a lovely story?

Milady Kirei!

Hey, daddy...

Why don't we call the apartment building that will be here...

"Belle Maison of Beginnings"?

What do you say?

That's one beautiful name. Let's do that.

But we're telling you, this park is-

You don't have to worry.

Not just this park.

This whole town will be ours in no time.

Alright then, leave.

They're going to take our important Hatsumori Park away...

46th competitive softball meet for high school girls

Are you... in the softball club?

Eh? I- I'm in the comic book clu-

I know!

Then, let's do this:

We're entering that tourney as well...

If your school places better than ours...

I'll give you Carte Blanche on this park's redevelopment.

But milady! We've invested quite dearly in this project...

Fantastic!

To be expected of my daughter! Such a fair and beautiful proposal!

How about we do that?

No, but...

However! If the challenge isn't managed to get cleared...

... everybody should give up for good!

Does that sound like a deal?

Do you agree?

Nanamaru...

I understand.

We'll do it.

Eh? But...

Well, then let's make a contract.

Just a verbal agreement is, you know...

President!

Excuse me! Please pass the ball!

Okouchi!

Yessir!

Buy that land too!

Go set it up!

Yes!

Milady Kirei!

It's fine.

I'm sorry.

I was worried about my nails, so I miscalculated the speed.

Ah!

So the contract has been signed by all parties.

Retreat!

Eh? Hold on!

Please wait!

I...

I forgot to introduce myself.

I'm the captain of the Saint Denenchofu Polaris School's softball club.

Gondawara Kirei

Gondawara Kirei.

I'll be waiting for you at the competition.

The Saint Denenchofu Polaris School's softball club.

17 times champion!?

"Led by their ace, Gondawara Kirei, all its members are in the Japanese team."

"There's no doubt they'll win this year too?"

It's the strongest team at female high school softball!

The strongest team!?

ねえ 夏の強い日差しに

There's patches of light all over town.

街が乱反射しているよ

Even though you're hidden in the shadows...

もう 君が影に隠れてても

... you'll be able to find someone.

誰かにすぐ見つかるだろう

Hiding away, all alone.

一人きり閉じこもってた

Let's try jumping away with all our might.

心から飛び出してみよう

The sun is knocking, inviting you.

太陽ノック 誘っているよ

It's saying everything under the sky is free.

空の下は自由だと言ってる

It's a good chance to start something.

何か始める いいきっかけだ

Open the door to the season where you get used to the heat.

熱くなれる季節に OPEN THE DOOR

First pitch:

It begins here

No way. There is no way.

I didn't know they were the strongest...

Alright, alright! Turn that frown upside down!

Nanase! Hurry up and help at the shop.

Nishino Ranko

Yes...

So what are you going to do, Nanamaru-chan?

Look like you're gonna win?

Of course not!

We've never even played softball.

And not to say...

But really, isn't it unfair? It's like cheating at rock-paper-scissors.

I'm sorry! I had to go and say a verbal agreement was no good...

Geez, I'm hungry! But yeah, what are we gonna do?

But we have to try hard after all.

The Park of Beginnings is our special place!
