Episode synopsis
The Restorers have made it to the stadium but Youkai-sensei hasn't returned with their ninth member. The Horrors are tired of waiting and bust into the Restorers' locker room and demand that the game begin immediately. Youkai-sensei arrives, but with bad news. No one wants to join the restorers, but he will play as the ninth pitcher. With no other choice, Zorori agrees and the game begins. At first everything goes well with Noshishi's Disappearing Magic Ball, but Heab's Fart Strong Fast Ball is just as good. It doesn't help that the Restorers are still dysfunctional as a team and Noshishi refuses to perform the Disappearing Magic ball in the second inning. Zorori's job as a coach will be put to the test as he tries to beat the best team in the league. Based on book 33.
