The school bowling team that Mai created has a problem: star bowler Rina wants it to be a competitive team that wins contests, while the other three girls, Nanase, Sayuri and Nozomi, are just members for a little fun. Rina feels even Mai isn't trying hard enough and quits the team. While the other members are trying to persuade her to change her mind, an even bigger problem emerges: some sort of 'paranormal phenomenon' sucks all five of them in and deposits them in what seems to be the Warring States period.

Turkey!
(One episode watched):
I had read a mention of this show as isekai at ANN, but I concluded my memory was wrong as almost all of episode one was clearly about the struggle to keep this bowling team from breaking up. I had started out thinking that a show about bowling probably wouldn't be much fun, and definitely wouldn't be isekai, but afterwards coming around to find these girls to be interesting characters who I'd like to know more about. They have some brains and engage in a little philosophy, like "It only takes a moment to lose something". The show is definitely about them, not bowling (a 'Turkey' seems to be a term for one or more successive strikes). And then a bolt of lightning strikes what seems to be an old bowling ball at a construction site, setting off what one of the girls describes as a 'paranormal phenomenon' and hurling them back to a battlefield in medieval Japan (I think). It worked for me; how will a girls bowling team deal with a situation like this? I absolutely must know what happens next, which is to say that episode one of this series did exactly what it was supposed to.
