Manga Chapter 66
Based on summary by sfok09 posted on LJ in Oofuri community: Looks like Abe is sitting in a pool area. Shinooka comes in. They mention something about where Mihashi is. She gives Abe a baseball scorebook. Abe looks through it then makes an angry face (sees the record of Haruna’s game). Mihashi enters the room. Shinooka senses the rift between Abe and Haruna and asks Mihashi if it was all right to show Abe the score record. Shinooka comments that Abe and Mihashi are close. Mihashi is super happy and goes red. Shinooka leaves to make lunch. Mihashi looks at the record too and found that Haruna started pitching from the 4th inning through the11th inning and his pitch count was more than 100. Abe and Mihashi measures themselves and found that they both grew taller. Abe is now 172cm. Mihashi is now 166.5cm. Mihashi finds Haruna’s stats in a book to compare. Haruna is 182cm and 77kg. Abe comments that Musashino is a one man team with Haruna and they will lose against ARC. Mihashi says that if Abe was there then Musashino can win. Abe gets really pissed. Shinooka returns to find out about the lunch menu and brings an icepack for Abe’s leg. Abe thinks that what Mihashi said will never happen but he’s piss that Mihashi went out of his way to verbalize it. Shinooka thinks that their (Abe/Mihashi)’s relationship is not good after all. The Nishiura boys eat lunch, then nap. (Looks like Izumi, Suyama, and Oki moms helped out.) Shiga sensei announces that they got permission to use the pool. Everyone is happy. The boys are swimming the breaststroke. Oki's first and Hanai finishes after him. Oki says that he started swimming since he was 6 years old and was chosen as school representative twice for breaststroke. Abe says its hard to swim without using his leg but its good for cardio and to get the rest of his body moving again. They start talking about Momokan making Abe and Mihashi spend time together. Abe comments that he still doesn’t understand what Mihashi says (and he doesn’t care) but sometimes he doesn’t know if Mihashi understands what he’s saying either. Hanai says that Momokan’s goal is to get them to communicate better. Abe says that even his dad hinted at something like that. Abe asks if his relationship with Mihashi is really that bad. Hanai and Oki try to tell Abe that he gets mad too easily and yell a lot which makes Mihashi scare and cry. Abe says he wasn’t mad, he was just saying what he thinks. Oki says Abe was mad but Abe denies it. Hanai said that it’s because Abe’s voice is loud. Abe says that what mades him mad is that Mihashi actually asked him if he will continue to be a catcher and if he’ll leave Nishiura. Mihashi keeps thinking impossible stuff and the more Abe thinks about it, he gets mad. Abe flashes back to when Mihashi said that if Abe was Haruna’s catcher then Musashino would win. Hanai asks Oki if he ever got impatient with Mihashi and Oki says no because you can read what Mihashi’s feeling base on his reactions. Another race, Tajima reaches the end and announce he’s first place. He and Mihashi compare height and everyone comments that it's not that much different, may be by 1-2 cm and Tajima is excited that he’s grown too. Mizutani comments obviously they’re in their growth phrase. Suyama says that however their bodies are sill immature. Tajima raises Mihashi’s hands and said “What?! We already have body hair, but Mihashi... have an adult’s !!!“ Tajima then pulls down Mihashi's swim shirts! Izumi tackles Tajima and forces his forehead to the very hot floor. Suyama and Mizutani are shocked. Tajima apologizes but reveals that he heard the men in Mihashi’s family are all circumcised. Mizutani wonders if that’s why Mihashi covers his front when he showers. Tajima said that Mihashi should be proud of his circumcision. Size and “usefullness” is not the only things to be proud of. Tajima runs off somewhere and Mihashi follows. Abe gets out of pool - he’s out of shape and breathing hard. He asks Shiga how the 2nd match is going and we find out that it's already over, 10 to 3, ARC won. Switch scene to stadium. While getting on the bus, Ookawa thinks ARC is too strong but he doesn’t want to give up yet. Haruna requests to be a starting pitcher for tomorrow’s first match. Kaguyama agrees. Ookawa consents and the team joins in a cheer to defeat ARC. Switch to evil looking ARC team, then back to Haruna. (Don't have summary for these pages.) |
