The 3-member Team RISE definitely needs some legit human members, they can't really rely much on AI going forward.

And in Hiyori's eyes, same 2nd-Year Yukino Tachibana is the next member to be recruited because of her baseball skills. Though she's never played a game before and free time's not on her watch, and forcing her to join would be asinine, so it's a trying practice for now. And it's clear that even with powers, Yukino easily measures up to the greats based on raw skills alone to pick up on the slack of other baseball positions to fill for backup.

Also, the singing aspect is important, yet Yukino sure was surprised that they lured her for practice, but what a surprise, for someone whom sings Enko songs and being able to play traditional instruments like the Shamisen, she's already on a higher level.

As fellow batterymates, with her young softball experience preceding her, Yukino has a reason she's very occupied: micro-managing between family and school, and being the next heir to the family dojo, as much as she would want to join Hiyori and Co., she's gotta sacrifice and prioritize, and her family's the way to go.

The adolescence life of a 16-year-old girl, truly THE best time to enjoy things. But for now, give Yukino sometime to think about it (though she will eventually join RISE), and keep chasing the dream with or without a new potential member, girls.

A good episode, for once.

Yukino is really really good. She's a busy lady, but hopefully one day she'll join RISE. She'll be a great team member.

I liked that karaoke segment. Yukino has a beautiful voice.

Poor girl lost her father and brother. I didn't expect her to have such a tragic past.

The current score for this show is criminally low. Deserves more love.

Poor Yukino, it must be so hard for her carrying the burden of her family’s will. But her brother and father would surely want her to be happy and choose what she wants not just what she thinks they want. Obviously from the Show’s key visual we know she’ll join, but looking forward to seeing how the girls convince her.

I really like Yukino already. She is the perfect member, good at sports, sing, and very committed to what she does.

The episode title brought memories of a great song.

That girl is already possible for him to join and to help them, it is seen that he has fun but has obligations that he imposed on himself, already in spite of everything he does not respond and being a day away from the game....

Rise really needs to pick up a few more people. Good thing they’re looking to add one more to the roster this episode. I like how Tachibana only came to watch the girls practice and within 2 seconds of arriving, she’s already got a helmet and a bat in hand haha. But damn, the girl has one hell of a swing. Sumi is a hell of a pitcher too, what an arm!

Tachibana’s had it rough with the death of her brother AND dad in a car accident. Taking over the dojo is a lot of responsibility for a 16 year old kid. I guess she doesn’t think she has a right to do what she wants out of a sense of duty to her dad and brother. But at least the girls aren’t giving up. Hopefully they can get her to join them before the game next week.

looks like Yukino would be hard to recruit.. apparently this is a family related issue. Her dad and brother died, so no one is left carry on with grandpa's samurai legacy.

Rise team really needs some more help. Would be difficult to play baseball with only three real people. The abilities of the robots are limited.

looking forward to how they resolve this next week.

Tragic backstory for new girl. This was a pretty interesting episode. They'll win her over next time of course.

I kind of figured Tachibana would have some sort of family situation like this, but I wasn't expecting it to come about because her father and brother died. I'm hoping she will decide to at least show up to the match, even if she doesn't participate.

Also, we finally have a traditional family that is supportive of their child without having to go through some major development.

That was a solid introduction training session for Yukino and a very feasable backstory regarding how she distanced herself from the world of sports. Just felt it went on way to quick for her to have puzzled feelings when she has only been RISE for a single day instead of several days

It's sad for Yukino since she's very talented in both baseball and singing but her brother and father died she needs to take the sword school, but she's very hesitant, it would be cool if she joined the group

A cute episode training with those kids and Yukino but her problems are more dire than I thought. 😔

Wait, they didn't even explained what's the cause of her dear father and brother's... 😑
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.
