In the second episode of Mix Season 2, we see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Koshien tournament. Although Toushu's team lost in the first round, their ace Mita showed great potential and impressed both his teammates and opponents.
The episode begins with a conversation between friends about Mita's emotional state after the game. They reassure each other that Mita is focusing on his future and not dwelling on the loss. The conversation shifts to Mita's sister, who insists she has no interest in baseball. However, a Koshien towel souvenir raises suspicions about her true feelings.
We also follow Nishiki's journey as he tries to reignite his love for baseball. Despite his tough exterior, Nishiki struggles with his past actions, such as hitting Coach Kuroyanagi and quitting the team. His friends notice that his physical condition has improved, but the emotional turmoil still weighs on him.
The episode takes an interesting turn when Daisuke Nikaidou, an older student who had to quit playing baseball due to health issues, steps in to protect Nishiki from a group of troublemakers. Nikaidou feels responsible for Nishiki's predicament, believing his own actions led Nishiki to associate with the wrong crowd.
Meanwhile, the Meisei High School baseball team grapples with internal conflicts as they struggle with their manager's shortcomings. They find solace in a detailed notebook containing individualized training plans for each club member, suggesting their manager might be more competent than they initially thought.
Amid these events, renowned writer Nagisa Tsukikage—Haruka's mother and stepmother to the Tachibana brothers—plans to write a short story about high school baseball. She enlists Otomi's help, as Otomi is well-versed in both the sport and her brothers. The two discuss the challenges of writing in different genres, particularly romantic comedies.
As spring arrives and Otomi graduates from Meisei Junior High, the Tachibana brothers continue to face the challenges of their personal and athletic lives. The episode closes with a hopeful message: sometimes, all they need is to have faith and persevere through tough times.
