“As the Team’s Control Tower”
My friends and I will become number one in Japan! That’s my—no, that’s Seirin’s goal! Our captain, Hyūga, is so determined to learn how to deal with pressure that he breaks one of his precious Sengoku figurines every time he misses a shot. As the team’s control tower, isn’t there something I can do…? Maybe I could take a break from making puns…? Ah! We’re on a quest for a huge conquest at any cost! This is great! Heheh. That means all of us are willing to do whatever it takes in order to win![1]

English Title: “This Is It!”
Slurping down clam soup in the morning (This is great! I can use this!)
Undaunted by a date in the hills at lunchtime (This is great! I can use this!)
This is quite the rockin’ Rococo tempo (This is great!)
What a nice chair you’ve got there! / Nice choice!
Let’s train our brains and our muscles / There are endless possibilities in linking words
Let’s make some dramatic, stimulating, intellectual communication
Thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thinking time (This is great! I can use this!)
Hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-highbrow humor requires a stroke of genius
Nothing beats curry rice for a guy who’s beat (This is great! I can use this!)
Ne, nee-san, would you like a sandwich? (This is great! I can use this!)
The octopus is running late (This is great!)
Okay, I’ll just wait here for my matcha
You can train your brain and your muscles / There are limitless combinations of words
Even if I get on your nerves, I can’t stop / This is high-class communication
Thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thinking time (This is great! I can use this!)
Hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-highbrow humor requires a stroke of genius
Let’s be smart about it
The basketball helpers are incredible skaters, too? (This is great! I can use this!)
Spray your hand while playing tennis! (This is great! I can use this!)
I’ll escort you to the court (This is great!)
The squadron that wants to battle is a thousand strong!!
Ping! This is great! Take a memo! x 3
Let’s make our debut
Ping! This is great! Take a memo! x 3
My joke books are my fortune
Thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thi-thinking time (This is great! I can use this!)
Hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-highbrow humor requires a stroke of genius
Let’s be smart about it
Twenty-four-hour full rotation (This is great! I can use this!)
I’ll greet each new season with a seasonal joke (This is great! I can use this!)
Puns are culture (This is great!)
People who don’t agree aren’t punny at all
Twenty-four-hour full rotation (This is great! I can use this!)
Excellence is found in witty jokes (This is great! I can use this!)
Let’s master the art of making puns (This is great!)
Bring your newfound self-confidence and zero in on your goal today

Translation Notes:
“Rococo” is an 18th-century artistic movement that influenced all areas of the arts.
In the last stanza, 「俊」(“shun” = “excellence”) is a pun on Izuki’s first name, Shun.[3]
“I Can’t Lose to the First Years”
I don’t really have any special abilities other than my “eagle eye”, but since I love basketball, I don’t intend to lose. After competing against strong teams, though, I realized just how much farther I need to go. I have to learn more and more about basketball. If I practice, I can increase the effectiveness of my special skill. I can’t lose to Kagami and the other first years! As Seirin’s point guard, I’ve got to do my best to utilize everyone’s strengths![1]
集まった笑顔も 不器用な思いも
手探りでのスタートだった
正直まだ見えない すぐそこの季節は
どんな顔をしてるのだろう
別に俯瞰したいワケじゃないさ 余裕も無い
同じくらい戸惑うけど Ah,
いつか何もかもが思い出話になって
懐かしいオレ達がいるね
嬉しかったことばかりじゃなくたって
他には考えられない たったひとつの日々だった
そう思える気がする 今のずっと未来で
歯痒さは時々 周りも巻き込んで
新しい力を生みだす
信じているんだろう? 目を見ればわかるよ
誰も降りる気なんかなくて
きっと必然だとか語る時が来るハズさ
変わらないその瞳で Ah,
いつか明日さえ過去に溶ける遠い空で
フイに何か後悔したって
悔しかったことばかりじゃないんだと
胸に溢れる本音で 言ってあげられるように
この時を走ろう 始まったばかりだ
いつか何もかもが思い出話になって
懐かしいオレ達がいるね
嬉しかったことばかりじゃなくたって
他には考えられない たったひとつの日々だった
そう思える気がする 今のずっと未来で[2]
Atsumatta egao mo / bukiyou na omoi mo
Tesaguri de no sutaato datta
Shoujiki mada mienai / sugu soko no kisetsu ha
Donna kao wo shiteru no darou
Betsu ni fukan shitai wake ja nai sa / yoyuu mo nai
Onaji kurai tomadou kedo / Ah,
Itsuka nanimokamo ga omoidebanashi ni natte
Natsukashii oretachi ga iru ne
Ureshikatta koto bakari ja naku tatte
Hoka ni ha kangaerarenai / tatta hitotsu no hibi datta
Sou omoeru ki ga suru / ima no zutto mirai de
Hagayusa ha tokidoki / mawari mo makikonde
Atarashii chikara wo umidasu
Shinjiteiru n darou? / me wo mireba wakaru yo
Dare mo oriru ki nanka nakute
Kitto hitsuzen da toka kataru toki ga kuru hazu sa
Kawaranai sono hitomi de / Ah,
Itsuka ashita sae kako ni tokeru tooi sora de
Fui ni nanika koukaishita tte
Kuyashikatta koto bakari ja nai n da to
Mune ni afureru honne de / itte agerareru you ni
Kono toki wo hashirou / hajimatta bakari da
Itsuka nanimokamo ga omoidebanashi ni natte
Natsukashii oretachi ga iru ne
Ureshikatta koto bakari ja naku tatte
Hoka ni ha kangaerarenai / tatta hitotsu no hibi datta
Sou omoeru ki ga suru / ima no zutto mirai de[3]
English Title: ”Those Irreplaceable Days”
A collection of smiles, right beside our wide-eyed hopes and dreams
Things were rough in the beginning
To be honest, I still can’t see it / the season that’s so close at hand
I wonder what kind of expression I’ll make when the time comes
It’s not that I want a bird’s-eye view / I don’t have any time to spare
But that means I might lose my way in equal measure / Ah,
Someday, all of this will be nothing but memories
And there we’ll be, fondly reminiscing about them
They might not all be happy memories
But I can’t imagine them any other way / those irreplaceable days
I have a feeling that’s what I’ll think, someday way off in the future
There were times I got everyone else caught up in my impatience
As I tried to invent new strength in myself
You still believe, don’t you? Just look into our eyes, and you’ll see
Not one of us has any intention of giving up
I know a time will come
When they’ll say there was never any doubt we’d succeed
Judging by the unchanging determination in our eyes / Ah,
Someday, even tomorrow will dissolve into the past
Into the distant sky
And if, one day, you tell me out of the blue
That there’s something you regret
“But a few painful memories don’t outweigh the happy ones”—
So I’ll be able to say that to you, my heart overflowing with sincerity
Let’s give everything we’ve got right now / We’ve only just begun
Someday, all of this will be nothing but memories
And there we’ll be, fondly reminiscing about them
They might not all be happy memories
But I can’t imagine them any other way / those irreplaceable days
I have a feeling that’s what I’ll think, someday way off in the future[3]
