00:00:01,670 --> 00:00:03,839
<i>It's been about a month
since Chinatsu Senpai</i>

2
00:00:03,923 --> 00:00:05,508
<i>started living with us.</i>

3
00:00:13,849 --> 00:00:14,767
Good morning.

4
00:00:16,352 --> 00:00:20,231
<i>My eyes have gotten used
to her dazzling aura.</i>

5
00:00:21,649 --> 00:00:24,276
I washed your gym uniform,
so don't forget to take it.

6
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,238
<i>I used to hit the snooze button
about five times,</i>

7
00:00:27,321 --> 00:00:29,865
<i>but lately, I've been stopping
after about two.</i>

8
00:00:37,331 --> 00:00:38,958
<i>Having a crush</i>

9
00:00:39,792 --> 00:00:41,043
<i>is so wonderful!</i>

10
00:00:47,299 --> 00:00:50,553
BLUE BOX

11
00:02:07,087 --> 00:02:13,010
BLUE BOX

12
00:02:13,093 --> 00:02:16,013
EPISODE 4
IF HE WINS

13
00:02:18,807 --> 00:02:20,643
Thank you for the meal.

14
00:02:20,726 --> 00:02:22,019
You have your match tomorrow.

15
00:02:22,102 --> 00:02:23,562
Yup!

16
00:02:23,646 --> 00:02:25,231
You're in a good mood.

17
00:02:25,314 --> 00:02:28,317
I guess I'm just fulfilled every day.

18
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,444
You seem to have settled down quickly.

19
00:02:31,862 --> 00:02:35,199
You know, a boy and a girl,
living under the same roof,

20
00:02:35,282 --> 00:02:37,534
I'm surprised nothing's happened so far.

21
00:02:37,618 --> 00:02:39,036
That's because...

22
00:02:41,121 --> 00:02:42,539
CHINATSU KANO
SORRY TO BOTHER YOU!

23
00:02:42,623 --> 00:02:44,541
Chinatsu Senpai!

24
00:02:44,625 --> 00:02:46,543
DID YOU TAKE MY UNIFORM BY ACCIDENT?

25
00:02:48,629 --> 00:02:50,047
KANO

26
00:02:53,133 --> 00:02:54,802
I HAVE GYM FIFTH PERIOD...

27
00:02:55,511 --> 00:02:56,804
I have to take this to her!

28
00:02:58,222 --> 00:02:59,264
I'LL BRING IT TO YOU!

29
00:02:59,348 --> 00:03:00,557
{\an8}WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?

30
00:03:00,641 --> 00:03:03,018
{\an8}SOMEWHERE SECLUDED WOULD BE BEST, RIGHT?

31
00:03:03,102 --> 00:03:05,145
{\an8}HOW ABOUT THE AV ROOM?

32
00:03:05,229 --> 00:03:06,146
{\an8}ROGER THAT

33
00:03:06,230 --> 00:03:08,732
<i>I was in such a rush this morning.</i>

34
00:03:08,816 --> 00:03:11,485
<i>We can't have anyone see us.</i>

35
00:03:11,568 --> 00:03:13,362
<i>I need to do this quickly.</i>

36
00:03:13,445 --> 00:03:14,738
Yo, Taiki.

37
00:03:17,741 --> 00:03:19,159
Why are you avoiding me?

38
00:03:19,243 --> 00:03:21,286
It's not what you think.

39
00:03:21,370 --> 00:03:23,038
This is perfect.

40
00:03:23,122 --> 00:03:24,415
Come practice with me.

41
00:03:24,498 --> 00:03:27,793
Sorry! I'll make it up after school!

42
00:03:27,876 --> 00:03:29,336
He ran away.

43
00:03:30,004 --> 00:03:31,922
AV ROOM

44
00:03:34,049 --> 00:03:36,260
<i>This room is usually empty.</i>

45
00:03:37,761 --> 00:03:38,679
Taiki.

46
00:03:39,305 --> 00:03:41,181
Hina! What are you doing here?

47
00:03:41,265 --> 00:03:42,433
RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS MEETING

48
00:03:42,516 --> 00:03:44,935
We're holding a rhythmic gymnastics
team meeting.

49
00:03:45,019 --> 00:03:46,186
<i>What?</i>

50
00:03:46,812 --> 00:03:47,938
You need something?

51
00:03:48,022 --> 00:03:49,523
Not particularly.

52
00:03:52,776 --> 00:03:54,695
- You dropped--
- Stop!

53
00:03:54,778 --> 00:03:56,196
{\an8}KANO

54
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,699
Listen, don't touch that.

55
00:03:58,782 --> 00:04:00,200
Why not?

56
00:04:00,284 --> 00:04:01,493
Hey.

57
00:04:01,577 --> 00:04:02,703
Hey, hey.

58
00:04:04,288 --> 00:04:06,665
Well, to be honest,

59
00:04:06,749 --> 00:04:09,460
I haven't washed that since last summer.

60
00:04:11,378 --> 00:04:13,464
- Get out of here.
- Okay.

61
00:04:15,257 --> 00:04:16,467
Hold on, Taiki.

62
00:04:17,384 --> 00:04:20,054
You were wearing your gym uniform
in gym class.

63
00:04:20,721 --> 00:04:23,057
If you haven't washed it
since junior high...

64
00:04:23,557 --> 00:04:26,727
The truth is, I've been wearing it
without ever washing it.

65
00:04:28,187 --> 00:04:29,605
Be gone.

66
00:04:29,688 --> 00:04:30,731
Okay.

67
00:04:31,398 --> 00:04:32,983
<i>Honestly.</i>

68
00:04:34,276 --> 00:04:36,528
<i>Why are there people everywhere?</i>

69
00:04:38,030 --> 00:04:40,824
<i>At this rate, Chinatsu Senpai
will have to wear my uniform.</i>

70
00:04:40,908 --> 00:04:41,909
INOMATA

71
00:04:42,743 --> 00:04:44,078
<i>There's no time left.</i>

72
00:04:44,161 --> 00:04:45,162
{\an8}CHINATSU KANO
NEW MESSAGE

73
00:04:46,497 --> 00:04:49,416
{\an8}"Come to the west side of the roof"?

74
00:04:49,500 --> 00:04:51,168
NO TRESPASSING

75
00:05:02,638 --> 00:05:03,806
You're here.

76
00:05:04,723 --> 00:05:07,309
Thank goodness we were able to meet up.

77
00:05:07,393 --> 00:05:09,645
How do you have a key to the roof?

78
00:05:09,728 --> 00:05:11,980
I borrowed it from my friend
in the astronomy club.

79
00:05:13,107 --> 00:05:14,316
Here.

80
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,777
Thank you. You're a lifesaver.

81
00:05:17,653 --> 00:05:20,322
<i>So this is what Chinatsu Senpai
is like at school.</i>

82
00:05:22,658 --> 00:05:23,826
It's nothing.

83
00:05:25,869 --> 00:05:29,623
Crap! You have to hurry,
or you'll be late!

84
00:05:29,706 --> 00:05:31,834
What are you doing?

85
00:05:31,917 --> 00:05:34,962
I thought I'd change here
because there's no time.

86
00:05:35,045 --> 00:05:36,088
Here?

87
00:05:36,171 --> 00:05:37,798
Don't worry.

88
00:05:37,881 --> 00:05:40,592
Girls in athletics learn
to change anywhere.

89
00:05:40,676 --> 00:05:42,219
We're trained to.

90
00:05:42,302 --> 00:05:44,388
<i>That's not the issue!</i>

91
00:05:45,180 --> 00:05:47,599
I'll make sure nobody comes up here.

92
00:05:47,683 --> 00:05:48,600
Sorry.

93
00:05:49,393 --> 00:05:52,479
<i>I've said this before,
but she's way too defenseless.</i>

94
00:05:52,563 --> 00:05:56,150
<i>Does she not understand how cute she is?</i>

95
00:05:58,694 --> 00:06:00,195
<i>Crap!</i>

96
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,949
<i>These sounds are making me imagine things!</i>

97
00:06:04,449 --> 00:06:06,869
- For real?
- So then...

98
00:06:16,003 --> 00:06:16,879
All done.

99
00:06:17,754 --> 00:06:18,714
You okay?

100
00:06:18,797 --> 00:06:21,675
Ten more seconds,
and I would've been a goner.

101
00:06:23,051 --> 00:06:24,052
Ready to go?

102
00:06:24,136 --> 00:06:25,929
You go on ahead.

103
00:06:26,013 --> 00:06:27,014
Okay.

104
00:06:29,391 --> 00:06:30,642
Thanks.

105
00:06:34,146 --> 00:06:36,982
<i>Getting changed right in front of me...</i>

106
00:06:38,442 --> 00:06:41,445
<i>That must mean
she doesn't view me as a guy.</i>

107
00:06:44,198 --> 00:06:47,409
<i>I need to work on that.</i>

108
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,203
Good practice.

109
00:06:49,286 --> 00:06:50,996
Did someone grab the shuttlecocks?

110
00:06:51,079 --> 00:06:53,165
What time tomorrow?

111
00:06:53,790 --> 00:06:54,791
Taiki!

112
00:06:56,251 --> 00:06:58,295
You've got regional prelims tomorrow?

113
00:06:59,171 --> 00:07:02,591
Make sure you don't get all worked up
and embarrass yourself.

114
00:07:02,674 --> 00:07:04,343
Mind your business!

115
00:07:05,969 --> 00:07:08,305
I'll make sure Kyo films it.

116
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,391
So I've been wondering...

117
00:07:11,475 --> 00:07:12,476
Not even a little.

118
00:07:12,559 --> 00:07:13,560
That right?

119
00:07:14,353 --> 00:07:17,147
She's right, though. Don't get worked up.

120
00:07:17,231 --> 00:07:20,067
You have me for doubles,
so that's a guaranteed win.

121
00:07:20,150 --> 00:07:22,319
<i>He's so confident!</i>

122
00:07:22,402 --> 00:07:26,240
You just need to finish in the top 16
in the singles next week.

123
00:07:26,323 --> 00:07:27,783
I'll be fine!

124
00:07:27,866 --> 00:07:29,993
I'm a lot better than before.

125
00:07:30,077 --> 00:07:31,995
I'll even make it
to the top eight or four.

126
00:07:32,621 --> 00:07:35,582
Well, just so you know,
you forgot your racket bag.

127
00:07:37,209 --> 00:07:39,002
Why didn't you mention it earlier?

128
00:07:39,086 --> 00:07:40,671
I wondered when you'd notice.

129
00:07:40,754 --> 00:07:42,047
I'll be right back!

130
00:07:45,175 --> 00:07:47,928
Taiki! Make sure you pack your uniform!

131
00:07:48,011 --> 00:07:51,515
And don't forget your shoes and racket!

132
00:07:51,598 --> 00:07:52,683
They're already packed.

133
00:07:52,766 --> 00:07:58,188
<i>Seeing Mom like this,
I understand where I get it from.</i>

134
00:07:58,272 --> 00:08:00,190
How many towels do you need? Eight?

135
00:08:00,274 --> 00:08:01,775
I don't need any!

136
00:08:02,401 --> 00:08:04,236
I've already packed everything I need.

137
00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:05,195
Really?

138
00:08:12,744 --> 00:08:14,204
Taiki!

139
00:08:15,539 --> 00:08:17,541
- Laundry!
- Gimme a towel!

140
00:08:17,624 --> 00:08:19,001
Here!

141
00:08:19,084 --> 00:08:20,460
Hurry!

142
00:08:22,170 --> 00:08:24,047
{\an8}<i>Get it together.</i>

143
00:08:24,131 --> 00:08:27,968
{\an8}<i>I know it's your first high school match,
but it's not your first rodeo.</i>

144
00:08:28,552 --> 00:08:30,304
{\an8}<i>Why are you so nervous?</i>

145
00:08:30,387 --> 00:08:31,722
{\an8}<i>Calm down.</i>

146
00:08:31,805 --> 00:08:34,975
{\an8}<i>Don't go out there and lose
because of some stupid mistake.</i>

147
00:08:35,809 --> 00:08:39,730
<i>There's nothing to feel pressured about.</i>

148
00:08:45,777 --> 00:08:47,863
<i>Exercise to clear the mind!</i>

149
00:08:47,946 --> 00:08:49,489
<i>You're going to nationals, right?</i>

150
00:08:49,573 --> 00:08:50,741
<i>Get it together!</i>

151
00:08:52,993 --> 00:08:54,620
You're practicing this late?

152
00:08:56,246 --> 00:08:57,789
Chinatsu Senpai.

153
00:08:59,916 --> 00:09:02,502
I decided to do some practice swings
to move my body.

154
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:04,880
Taiki.

155
00:09:04,963 --> 00:09:06,506
Your shirt's inside out.

156
00:09:10,302 --> 00:09:12,763
<i>Okay, I might not be fine.</i>

157
00:09:22,314 --> 00:09:23,523
Sorry!

158
00:09:25,192 --> 00:09:28,987
<i>She didn't seem to care
about changing in front of me.</i>

159
00:09:29,529 --> 00:09:31,531
<i>But this she minds.</i>

160
00:09:32,407 --> 00:09:33,533
Taiki.

161
00:09:33,617 --> 00:09:34,785
Yes?

162
00:09:34,868 --> 00:09:37,037
I didn't know you had a six-pack.

163
00:09:37,746 --> 00:09:38,789
<i>That's what it was?</i>

164
00:09:39,581 --> 00:09:41,958
I guess you do work out a lot.

165
00:09:42,668 --> 00:09:43,543
That reminds me.

166
00:09:43,627 --> 00:09:46,797
Haryu said your body was coming along.

167
00:09:48,215 --> 00:09:52,010
Just because I got a little muscle
doesn't make me better at badminton.

168
00:09:54,304 --> 00:09:55,847
Wow, talk about humble.

169
00:10:00,227 --> 00:10:01,144
Taiki.

170
00:10:02,938 --> 00:10:04,189
What is it?

171
00:10:06,149 --> 00:10:07,442
<i>Hyakue.</i>

172
00:10:08,944 --> 00:10:10,195
What?

173
00:10:10,278 --> 00:10:12,322
It's a pressure point on your head.

174
00:10:12,406 --> 00:10:14,199
It can help you relax.

175
00:10:14,783 --> 00:10:17,369
There's no point in running around
the day before.

176
00:10:17,452 --> 00:10:19,621
You've already put in the hard work.

177
00:10:20,497 --> 00:10:24,376
So stop overthinking things
and go show them what you can do.

178
00:10:25,544 --> 00:10:26,586
Got it?

179
00:10:27,212 --> 00:10:28,171
Yeah.

180
00:10:29,589 --> 00:10:31,133
<i>Okay, this pressure point</i>

181
00:10:32,092 --> 00:10:33,468
<i>really works.</i>

182
00:10:35,429 --> 00:10:36,471
Besides,

183
00:10:38,056 --> 00:10:41,393
you still have next year
and the year after.

184
00:10:42,144 --> 00:10:43,395
<i>The year after?</i>

185
00:10:43,979 --> 00:10:45,856
<i>But that's after you graduate.</i>

186
00:10:47,357 --> 00:10:49,860
You'll be even stronger than you are now.

187
00:10:49,943 --> 00:10:51,361
That's not good enough for me.

188
00:11:04,708 --> 00:11:05,667
Good night.

189
00:11:17,596 --> 00:11:18,722
Okay!

190
00:11:19,306 --> 00:11:20,515
Let's go!

191
00:11:21,433 --> 00:11:23,018
Looks like you got over your nerves.

192
00:11:24,352 --> 00:11:26,021
I don't have time to be nervous.

193
00:11:28,356 --> 00:11:30,775
Well, good for you.

194
00:11:31,568 --> 00:11:35,030
<i>The doubles matches are about to begin.</i>

195
00:11:35,113 --> 00:11:36,031
ROUND 1

196
00:11:36,114 --> 00:11:37,282
Out!

197
00:11:37,365 --> 00:11:38,783
ROUND 3

198
00:11:38,867 --> 00:11:40,785
ADVANCED TO BEST 16

199
00:11:40,869 --> 00:11:42,621
- Huh?
- What?

200
00:11:42,704 --> 00:11:44,831
I mean, it's going so smoothly.

201
00:11:44,915 --> 00:11:47,459
Like we're not gonna
make it out of regional prelims.

202
00:11:47,542 --> 00:11:48,585
You have me, dummy.

203
00:11:49,169 --> 00:11:51,046
Please sign the match sheet.

204
00:11:52,047 --> 00:11:56,051
Although it's painfully clear
what you need to work on.

205
00:11:57,260 --> 00:11:59,679
<i>He's right. These were real games</i>

206
00:11:59,763 --> 00:12:03,725
<i>and there were so many instances
where he covered me.</i>

207
00:12:09,231 --> 00:12:10,565
<i>He's so loud.</i>

208
00:12:10,649 --> 00:12:12,817
<i>Such a bold playstyle too.</i>

209
00:12:15,195 --> 00:12:17,072
<i>Or so I thought, but he's calculated.</i>

210
00:12:17,822 --> 00:12:19,574
One more down.

211
00:12:20,909 --> 00:12:22,577
- Let's go.
- Okay.

212
00:12:23,411 --> 00:12:24,538
Harry Senpai?

213
00:12:26,331 --> 00:12:30,877
If it isn't the former KTS Junior member
Kengo Haryu.

214
00:12:30,961 --> 00:12:32,212
Sorry, wrong person.

215
00:12:32,295 --> 00:12:33,964
You crook!

216
00:12:36,299 --> 00:12:37,842
Do you know him?

217
00:12:37,926 --> 00:12:40,720
He used to be my doubles partner
in my junior days.

218
00:12:41,513 --> 00:12:44,224
Meet Shimotomi High's Shoichiro Kishi.

219
00:12:44,307 --> 00:12:47,018
He called you a crook.

220
00:12:47,102 --> 00:12:49,271
I have no idea why.

221
00:12:49,354 --> 00:12:51,982
That's because Harry Senpai
broke his promise.

222
00:12:52,065 --> 00:12:56,736
You said you'd give me
Chinatsu Kano's number!

223
00:12:56,820 --> 00:12:57,988
<i>What?</i>

224
00:12:58,071 --> 00:13:00,782
I said if you beat me.

225
00:13:00,865 --> 00:13:02,367
But I did.

226
00:13:02,450 --> 00:13:04,160
In an official match.

227
00:13:04,244 --> 00:13:07,414
Do you know Chinatsu Senpai?

228
00:13:08,123 --> 00:13:08,999
Yeah.

229
00:13:09,082 --> 00:13:13,753
How could I forget that fateful day
last year at Eimei's school festival?

230
00:13:13,837 --> 00:13:16,006
SCHOOL FESTIVAL

231
00:13:17,299 --> 00:13:18,258
My wallet's gone!

232
00:13:18,341 --> 00:13:20,552
It was a limited edition!

233
00:13:20,635 --> 00:13:21,469
Excuse me!

234
00:13:32,606 --> 00:13:35,567
It was like my favorite idol
popped out of my wallet.

235
00:13:35,650 --> 00:13:36,818
What anime is that?

236
00:13:36,901 --> 00:13:38,111
Don't humor him.

237
00:13:39,321 --> 00:13:42,699
After that, I heard she was friends
with Harry Senpai,

238
00:13:42,782 --> 00:13:44,826
so I asked for an introduction.

239
00:13:44,909 --> 00:13:46,953
But he never came through.

240
00:13:47,037 --> 00:13:48,038
Isn't he awful?

241
00:13:48,121 --> 00:13:50,206
You agree with me, right?

242
00:13:50,290 --> 00:13:52,250
<i>Nice job, Haryu Senpai.</i>

243
00:13:52,834 --> 00:13:55,462
Which is why today,
after I crush you in the doubles,

244
00:13:55,545 --> 00:13:57,839
you'd better introduce me to her!

245
00:13:58,840 --> 00:13:59,883
Kishi.

246
00:14:00,383 --> 00:14:04,304
I don't feel too well.

247
00:14:06,181 --> 00:14:07,849
I think I'm dying.

248
00:14:08,391 --> 00:14:10,894
Yokoyama!

249
00:14:11,394 --> 00:14:14,230
Lucky you already made it past
the prelims.

250
00:14:14,314 --> 00:14:15,315
Fine, then!

251
00:14:15,398 --> 00:14:17,984
We'll settle this at next week's singles!

252
00:14:18,068 --> 00:14:19,903
I'm not playing in that.

253
00:14:19,986 --> 00:14:22,989
When's your next official match, then?

254
00:14:23,073 --> 00:14:24,532
The prefectural qualifiers in June.

255
00:14:24,616 --> 00:14:25,951
June?

256
00:14:26,034 --> 00:14:27,869
I'll find a sub, and we can play now!

257
00:14:27,953 --> 00:14:29,829
- No way.
- I won't leave until you do!

258
00:14:29,913 --> 00:14:31,581
Okay, fine.

259
00:14:32,207 --> 00:14:36,086
I'll give you her number if you beat Taiki
in the singles next week.

260
00:14:37,879 --> 00:14:40,090
More accurately,
I'll ask her if it's okay.

261
00:14:40,173 --> 00:14:41,591
You can't just volunteer me!

262
00:14:41,675 --> 00:14:42,592
Taiki?

263
00:14:42,676 --> 00:14:44,386
My doubles partner over there.

264
00:14:51,685 --> 00:14:52,727
This is a lock!

265
00:14:54,270 --> 00:14:56,022
What should my first message be?

266
00:14:58,608 --> 00:14:59,901
Be careful.

267
00:14:59,985 --> 00:15:02,612
He's better than he looks.

268
00:15:05,699 --> 00:15:08,368
<i>What a jerk!</i>

269
00:15:10,829 --> 00:15:13,123
<i>How did I get roped into this?</i>

270
00:15:14,082 --> 00:15:18,461
<i>I don't like the idea of Kishi getting
Chinatsu Senpai's number either.</i>

271
00:15:19,587 --> 00:15:21,464
<i>Doesn't mean he should just volunteer me.</i>

272
00:15:21,548 --> 00:15:22,882
That's right.

273
00:15:22,966 --> 00:15:25,385
<i>That's Chinatsu Senpai's voice.</i>

274
00:15:26,177 --> 00:15:28,388
<i>It feels a little awkward to see her now.</i>

275
00:15:28,471 --> 00:15:31,933
<i>I'm sure she didn't like
my attitude yesterday.</i>

276
00:15:32,976 --> 00:15:36,896
<i>I'm the one so hung up on going
to nationals this year.</i>

277
00:15:36,980 --> 00:15:39,441
I'm so glad Taiki won.

278
00:15:39,524 --> 00:15:42,152
Well, he has been practicing hard.

279
00:15:42,235 --> 00:15:45,196
He swings his racket at home
instead of studying.

280
00:15:45,822 --> 00:15:47,198
So he'd better win.

281
00:15:47,782 --> 00:15:50,577
And I made <i>tonkatsu</i>
for him today to celebrate.

282
00:15:50,660 --> 00:15:52,746
It'd be awkward if he lost.

283
00:15:54,664 --> 00:15:57,167
Honestly, I was a little worried

284
00:15:57,250 --> 00:15:59,544
that he's pushing himself too hard.

285
00:16:00,295 --> 00:16:04,507
He's got two more years,
so what's the rush?

286
00:16:05,133 --> 00:16:05,967
Yes.

287
00:16:06,051 --> 00:16:08,803
I said that to him too.

288
00:16:08,887 --> 00:16:11,264
That he still has next year and the next.

289
00:16:11,347 --> 00:16:13,975
But then his attitude changed.
It was strange...

290
00:16:14,059 --> 00:16:14,976
Isn't he always?

291
00:16:15,060 --> 00:16:16,436
<i>Shut up.</i>

292
00:16:16,519 --> 00:16:18,980
No, I understand why he'd get mad.

293
00:16:19,064 --> 00:16:23,651
I mean, it's like I was saying
that he was free to lose this year.

294
00:16:23,735 --> 00:16:25,028
I only realized it after.

295
00:16:25,111 --> 00:16:26,237
<i>That's true.</i>

296
00:16:27,197 --> 00:16:30,658
<i>But I was just a little sad
about being reminded</i>

297
00:16:30,742 --> 00:16:32,744
<i>that I'm a year behind her.</i>

298
00:16:32,827 --> 00:16:36,206
It's not like you meant it that way.

299
00:16:36,289 --> 00:16:37,499
Of course not!

300
00:16:37,582 --> 00:16:39,751
Then don't worry about it.

301
00:16:40,877 --> 00:16:42,253
I know, but...

302
00:16:43,004 --> 00:16:48,760
Part of it was me realizing
how quickly this year has gone by.

303
00:16:48,843 --> 00:16:52,222
When I think that I only have a year left,

304
00:16:52,305 --> 00:16:55,767
I got a little envious of Taiki.

305
00:16:56,518 --> 00:16:58,812
I didn't say that to encourage him.

306
00:16:58,895 --> 00:17:01,773
I was just expressing my own insecurities.

307
00:17:01,856 --> 00:17:03,274
And I regret that.

308
00:17:04,943 --> 00:17:06,027
Chinatsu.

309
00:17:06,611 --> 00:17:08,363
You're such a nice girl.

310
00:17:09,405 --> 00:17:10,990
That's not...

311
00:17:11,074 --> 00:17:12,408
So pure!

312
00:17:13,284 --> 00:17:14,536
I'm back!

313
00:17:14,619 --> 00:17:16,538
Welcome home!

314
00:17:16,621 --> 00:17:18,414
Congrats.

315
00:17:18,498 --> 00:17:19,415
Thanks.

316
00:17:19,499 --> 00:17:21,543
You got a good doubles partner, huh?

317
00:17:21,626 --> 00:17:23,086
That's not all of it.

318
00:17:23,628 --> 00:17:24,546
Besides,

319
00:17:25,380 --> 00:17:27,215
I'll win my singles matches too!

320
00:17:27,298 --> 00:17:29,050
You don't have to yell.

321
00:17:31,594 --> 00:17:33,054
I'm going to put my stuff away.

322
00:17:33,138 --> 00:17:34,889
Such a busy boy.

323
00:17:35,515 --> 00:17:36,808
<i>If she's feeling insecure,</i>

324
00:17:37,851 --> 00:17:39,894
<i>that's all the more reason I can't lose.</i>

325
00:17:41,229 --> 00:17:45,400
Where does he get all that confidence?

326
00:17:46,401 --> 00:17:48,987
You honestly don't have to worry
about what you said.

327
00:17:49,070 --> 00:17:49,904
No.

328
00:17:51,156 --> 00:17:53,658
I could learn from his example.

329
00:18:01,416 --> 00:18:02,667
Good luck to you.

330
00:18:04,752 --> 00:18:05,962
Rock, paper, scissors!

331
00:18:06,045 --> 00:18:07,964
They're so fired up.

332
00:18:08,047 --> 00:18:10,175
They're only determining who serves first...

333
00:18:11,176 --> 00:18:14,679
Anyway, I heard you put some weird stakes
on this match.

334
00:18:14,762 --> 00:18:16,347
Don't worry.

335
00:18:16,431 --> 00:18:18,641
I won't tell him
if she doesn't want me to.

336
00:18:19,184 --> 00:18:22,061
<i>Chinatsu Senpai
might be too nice to say no.</i>

337
00:18:22,145 --> 00:18:25,273
Besides, I think Taiki's going to win.

338
00:18:25,356 --> 00:18:26,274
What?

339
00:18:26,357 --> 00:18:28,943
Obviously, since I'm the one training him.

340
00:18:29,861 --> 00:18:32,947
In fact, if he loses,
I'll put him through hell.

341
00:18:33,031 --> 00:18:34,032
Shudder!

342
00:18:34,532 --> 00:18:35,491
GIVE YOUR ALL

343
00:18:35,575 --> 00:18:37,952
<i>I'm glad I'm not his doubles partner.</i>

344
00:18:38,578 --> 00:18:40,496
First game. Love-all.

345
00:18:40,580 --> 00:18:41,456
Play!

346
00:18:50,256 --> 00:18:54,177
Still, his smashes are powerful.

347
00:18:54,260 --> 00:18:56,721
He's good at putting his weight behind it.

348
00:18:56,804 --> 00:18:58,389
You can't just return them.

349
00:19:05,230 --> 00:19:06,522
There you are.

350
00:19:08,191 --> 00:19:09,275
What's up, ladies?

351
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:10,985
What're you doing here?

352
00:19:11,069 --> 00:19:13,821
We had a practice game
against Kita High next door.

353
00:19:13,905 --> 00:19:16,157
We came to check out the tournament.

354
00:19:16,241 --> 00:19:17,784
Is anyone playing?

355
00:19:17,867 --> 00:19:19,160
My doubles partner.

356
00:19:20,453 --> 00:19:22,413
Oh, him? Let's cheer him on.

357
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:27,835
Is it because we came?

358
00:19:27,919 --> 00:19:29,629
He can't get any attacks off.

359
00:19:29,712 --> 00:19:30,880
Are you one of those people

360
00:19:30,964 --> 00:19:34,425
who think figure skaters fail their jumps
when you watch?

361
00:19:35,093 --> 00:19:37,220
It's probably his strategy.

362
00:19:37,303 --> 00:19:38,429
His strategy?

363
00:19:38,513 --> 00:19:41,683
It takes time to get used to the speed
of someone's smashes.

364
00:19:41,766 --> 00:19:43,434
Taiki's slow at repositioning.

365
00:19:43,518 --> 00:19:47,438
So he's playing defensive at first
to tire out his opponent.

366
00:19:48,314 --> 00:19:51,693
If you look carefully,
his shots are keeping his opponent moving.

367
00:19:51,776 --> 00:19:54,779
The kid's gotten pretty smart.

368
00:19:54,862 --> 00:19:57,240
<i>Match number 15...</i>

369
00:19:57,323 --> 00:19:58,533
I should get going.

370
00:19:58,616 --> 00:19:59,701
Good luck.

371
00:20:01,369 --> 00:20:02,745
Not going to watch up close?

372
00:20:03,788 --> 00:20:05,039
I'm fine here.

373
00:20:05,123 --> 00:20:07,542
So, actually, I know your situation.

374
00:20:08,042 --> 00:20:09,627
Taiki told me.

375
00:20:10,169 --> 00:20:12,213
He said he trusts you.

376
00:20:16,217 --> 00:20:18,469
<i>Okay, she is cute.</i>

377
00:20:18,553 --> 00:20:21,931
There's something nerve-racking
about tournaments.

378
00:20:22,015 --> 00:20:25,018
Each shot feels heavier.

379
00:20:27,687 --> 00:20:28,938
Did you know?

380
00:20:29,022 --> 00:20:32,525
This game has your phone number
on the line.

381
00:20:34,068 --> 00:20:36,988
And just so you know,
Haryu Senpai's to blame.

382
00:20:37,071 --> 00:20:38,489
So take it up with him.

383
00:20:39,407 --> 00:20:41,743
It's just that Taiki
gets nothing for winning.

384
00:20:42,410 --> 00:20:43,703
So,

385
00:20:43,786 --> 00:20:47,248
would you take him to the aquarium
or something if he wins?

386
00:20:48,875 --> 00:20:52,545
We can't use the gym tomorrow anyways,
so there's no practice scheduled.

387
00:20:53,129 --> 00:20:54,005
Besides,

388
00:20:54,756 --> 00:20:58,009
you're part of the reason
he's so motivated.

389
00:20:58,092 --> 00:21:00,887
I doubt I have that much influence on him...

390
00:21:00,970 --> 00:21:02,013
Yeah, you do.

391
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,768
She stayed behind in Japan
by herself to make the nationals!

392
00:21:06,851 --> 00:21:10,021
She practices first thing
in the morning! So will I!

393
00:21:10,104 --> 00:21:12,190
He's easily swayed.

394
00:21:13,608 --> 00:21:17,028
He's always been stubborn.
Once he makes up his mind, that's it.

395
00:21:17,904 --> 00:21:22,283
But even as a friend,
I can say he's been doing well lately.

396
00:21:23,076 --> 00:21:26,788
The old him wouldn't have been able
to pick up those shots.

397
00:21:28,373 --> 00:21:29,665
I'm sure that part of it

398
00:21:30,249 --> 00:21:33,086
is because he has someone close
with the same goals

399
00:21:33,169 --> 00:21:36,798
to keep him disciplined
and motivate him to put in the effort.

400
00:21:37,757 --> 00:21:40,009
So, if he's able to achieve
some good results,

401
00:21:40,093 --> 00:21:42,804
I think he deserves some kind of reward.

402
00:21:53,314 --> 00:21:54,399
Yes!

403
00:21:55,316 --> 00:21:57,318
<i>He's fired up.</i>

404
00:21:57,402 --> 00:21:58,444
Okay.

405
00:22:00,238 --> 00:22:04,117
If Taiki wins, we'll go to the aquarium.

406
00:23:30,995 --> 00:23:36,000
