Tribe Nine (2022) s01e03 Episode Script

A Real Enemy

1
It's the Otori family mark!
Meaning Wh-What a p-pleasure
for the royal family to come!
Bow down!
The hell?! Who are they?
Shh! You wanna get your guts slit?!
H-How kind of you
to visit our filthy abode!
What a grand entrance.
Is that why you're going around
crushing tribes? To stand out?
You idiot!
The weak deserve no compassion.
Compassion, no.
But respect is another matter.
This Extreme Baseball of yours
is child's play.
You'll get no respect from me.
The game needs blood.
The days of old were filled with
broken bones and spewing blood.
Yeah? What an ugly mindset to have.
EPISODE 3: A REAL ENEMY
Pardon me.
The Bunkyo, Toshima, and Shinjuku Tribes
were wiped out by Lord Ojiro.
And?
Tonight, he plans to battle Minato Tribe.
Are they strong?
It's said they're the best.
I see! So, he'll crush them?
Yes.
After all, that's the way it must be!
None shall defy the Otori family!
It's humanity's duty
to bow before me, is it not?
It is as you say.
In which case, it's our duty to show
humanity our overwhelming power!
And what better than Extreme Baseball
to prove the power behind our name?!
Indeed. Rest assured that
your wish shall be fulfilled.
You think he'll win?
You raised Lord Ojiro
to do just that, after all.
Yeah? And?
None shall defy the Otori family.
I take it that's a challenge to play?
Fine. Let's do it.
H-Hold up! Do you know
who we're up against?!
We're tired from our other game.
How about next time?
Y-Yeah! And I'm dying to see
episode 138 of Puffy Pudding!
Don't worry. I'll make it quick.
-Shun
-H-Hey!
All right?
The powerful Chiyoda The royal
Yo!
It's so easy to tell you're nervous.
Haru. Taiga.
Yeah?
Today's XB will be a little special.
Cherish it.
Huh?
Aren't we supposed to cherish every match?
Well, just do whatever you want.
We're starting!
M'kay!
Kamiya What do you mean
by "cherish it"?
Hey, hey They're grouped up?
Is that allowed?
Since the judge robot
isn't reacting Must be.
Is he dead?
Yeah, he is.
Definitely dead.
He's dead, for sure.
Next.
Cruel! He trashed his buddy!
Th-There's nothing
to be afraid of! R-Relax!
You relax, Micchan.
Haru! Go give 'em hell!
Right!
Play ball!
I'm scared
It's no use! He's more rattled than me!
Don't be afraid! Use both eyes and look!
He packs more heat than
the suited Shinagawa guy.
This might sound arrogant,
but you can leave this to me.
This might sound arrogant,
but you can leave this to me.
-He's insanely strong!
-He's insanely strong!
I can see that.
What are you doing, Saorin?
Looking up his data.
Huh? There isn't any?!
He's a total rookie?!
Someone that good is unknown?
Must be one long-awaited debut.
We don't know what to expect.
Let's be careful!
Right!
Well, leave the pitching to me.
Eh? You're pitching?
Got a problem?! Batting aside,
I'm a pitching god!
It's all right, Micchan. I will.
-Eh?
-That's unusual, Kamiya.
I said, "I'll make it quick."
A beam bat
Get ready, Arisugawa.
Got it.
We haven't seen Shun's 100% in a while.
That wasn't 100%.
Throw with everything you've got.
Roger that!
He hit it!
It's between Shiba Temple
and Minato Tower!
To think he could hit that pitch!
Throw it to Minato Tower!
Taiga!
Haru! Incoming!
Yeah!
Kamiya!
Nice, Haru!
Shun Kamiya, let's see
how tough you really are.
Leave emotions out of it.
What?
A real enemy doesn't
come straight at you
they sneak up to your side like a shadow.
Nonsense!
Now!
Runner out!
Didn't notice me slip Haru
the ball during our battle?
Got a sec, Haru?
Huh? Sure.
I thought of a plan to trick him.
Huh? That'll never work!
Or so I thought
Uh, um This is
You can bet he never saw that one coming.
What's his deal? He's just standing.
Let's test the waters with a pitch.
Huh? It's like he doesn't
even wanna swing.
What a weird, creepy team.
You're kidding! He didn't move once.
Could it be?
Why'd they just stand there?
I guess they're not into it.
They're just to fill the lineup.
It's like against Kamiya.
He thinks he can beat us all by himself?
Exactly.
Good. Makes it interesting.
No matter who we're up against,
let's play our own game and win.
Too bad about earlier.
Just goes to show your inexperience.
Shut your mouth.
Just study the first pitch!
No, I'm gonna swing!
Hitting the first pitch is badass!
His mask!
So that's what he looks like?
Kamiya
Hmm?
Whoa!
Oh? You're faster than I thought.
Was the mask holding you back?
I said to leave emotions out of it.
You're easier to read than before.
I can read you, too!
Shoot!
That's all you've got?
That's something you don't see!
What is?
Aren't you watching, Hana?
Kamiya got pummeled by that oddball.
Yeah? But they're gonna win anyway, right?
I would think so.
-Sorry!
-I totally whiffed!
K-Kamiya! Y-You okay?!
Sit down and rest!
XB and battles go hand in hand.
Chill out, you two.
Rest, dude!
Uh, are you oka?
-Minato Tribe!
-Huh?
Wh-What's up, Shun Kamiya?
Did you hit your head?
-For real?
-Told you so.
Wrong! When I say "Minato Tribe,"
you've gotta come back with "bomber"!
Kamiya, are you all right?
So, it's like a cheer?
Only Haru gets my special
Minato Tribe power-up cheer!
Talk about a long name.
In other words, it's to get us pumped up?
Good idea! Everyone, huddle up!
Here we go! Minato Tribe
Bomber!
Pathetic.
Wish I had coffee.
Not enough heat!
Shit!
Between 2nd and 3rd! Hustle!
Shit! It's too high!
C'mon!
Good! At 2nd?
Nope! Long gone!
He's way too fast!
Get the ball to me!
Kamiya?
He's close to 3rd! I'll stop him
at Super Hill's anti-gravity wall!
I'm actually a fan of
your brute-force approach!
But there's more than
just one style! There's a ton!
Until you can see that,
XB will never be fun!
Screw "fun"!
-Hey, hey!
-What's the matter, Hana?
Shut up or go home.
-Excuse me?
-Jerks!
Unbelievable!
-Fine, let's go.
-Stupid Hana!
Are we about to see an upset?
Oh, man! You're kidding me!
XB isn't about fun!
It's meant to be a bloody brawl!
A brawl? Crushing your opponents
so you can stand on top?
What's there for you
after everyone submits?
Everything!
You're wrong! Nothing!
-Haru!
-Yeah?!
He'll be fine, but the ball's
near you! Find it, quick!
The runner's coming!
Everyone to home plate!
We've gotta stop him!
-Found it!
-Back home!
-B-But!
-Just do it!
Shit! I won't make it!
Bring it!
Shun Kamiya!
Kamiya!
Kamiya! Hey!
We forfeit! We forfeit the match!
You admit defeat?
We do! Call an ambulance!
-Hey! Kamiya! Kamiya!
-Shun!
-Hang in there, Kamiya!
-Shun!
What?! Are you for real?!
Relax, Hana.
You're nuts, Yaji!
After that, how could I?!
This may change the XB world forever.
As the victor, I command
that you disband Minato Tribe.
UNDER EXAMINATION
Manami! How's Kamiya?!
Um
Yo!
What the heck, man?!
Sorry to worry you guys.
He's a patient, you know.
We got disbanded?
This was my fault.
Now we can't play XB as a group anymore.
Even if we disband, we're still comrades.
As long we've got Manami's
coffee jelly sandwich, we're immortal!
Thank goodness
Haru's about to cry.
Taiga, make him laugh.
Me?!
Oh, yeah! Do another one of
your "Life of a Tuna" skits!
Uh, "If I stop moving around,
I die!" was it? Glub, glub!
Way better than Taiga's.
Shuddap! It's not even close!
HOSPITAL
You've done an adequate job
for your debut,
but this is only the beginning.
We must show the whole country
our absolute power through XB.
Of course.
Now then, which tribe
gets the next bloodbath?
Thanks for waiting!
I bet you're all hungry!
Here's my lovely ocean special!
The lovely ocean coffee jelly sandwich?!
Yeah, and creamy meat rolls!
Definitely meat baseballs!
Potato bats, for sure!
It's chow time!
Taiga, you've got no manners.
Early bird gets the worm!
Sheesh! You guys never learn!
Kamiya.
In that final battle, you tagged him out.
That's Haru for you. You saw
what even the judge robot couldn't.
If you had said something!
No It matters more to me
that you saw it.
Thank you.
All right.
Dang, that was good!
Shun?
Here.
Thanks. Set it right there.
So, what's going on?
Meaning?
Don't play dumb.
Are you really okay, Shun?
This kinda thing happens too much.
Go get looked at
Yeah, yeah. Thanks for
your concern, Micchan.
You always put things off too much.
You got me.
Mita! Manami!
Come and help us clean already!
-Go on. The scary sub-leader needs you.
-Ichiro, Jiro! Stop napping and help!
-Or we'll draw on your faces!
-Kamiya?
I need some fresh air. I'll be right back.
You'll come right back?
Yup!
C'mon, let's help out.
-Hey!
-Shit, you're killing my fun!
Dude, you guys aren't cleaning at all!
Ah You followed me, huh?
I wish I could've played more.
Just didn't get enough time.
