00:01.670 --> 00:03.839
<i>It's been about a month
since Chinatsu Senpai</i>

00:03.923 --> 00:05.508
<i>started living with us.</i>

00:13.849 --> 00:14.767
Good morning.

00:16.352 --> 00:20.231
<i>My eyes have gotten used
to her dazzling aura.</i>

00:21.649 --> 00:24.276
I washed your gym uniform,
so don't forget to take it.

00:24.360 --> 00:27.238
<i>I used to hit the snooze button
about five times,</i>

00:27.321 --> 00:29.865
<i>but lately, I've been stopping
after about two.</i>

00:37.331 --> 00:38.958
<i>Having a crush</i>

00:39.792 --> 00:41.043
<i>is so wonderful!</i>

00:47.299 --> 00:50.553

BLUE BOX

02:13.093 --> 02:16.013
EPISODE 4
IF HE WINS

02:18.807 --> 02:20.643
Thank you for the meal.

02:20.726 --> 02:22.019
You have your match tomorrow.

02:22.102 --> 02:23.562
Yup!

02:23.646 --> 02:25.231
You're in a good mood.

02:25.314 --> 02:28.317
I guess I'm just fulfilled every day.

02:28.400 --> 02:30.444
You seem to have settled down quickly.

02:31.862 --> 02:35.199
You know, a boy and a girl,
living under the same roof,

02:35.282 --> 02:37.534
I'm surprised nothing's happened so far.

02:37.618 --> 02:39.036
That's because...

02:41.121 --> 02:42.539
CHINATSU KANO
SORRY TO BOTHER YOU!

02:42.623 --> 02:44.541
Chinatsu Senpai!

02:44.625 --> 02:46.543
DID YOU TAKE MY UNIFORM BY ACCIDENT?

02:48.629 --> 02:50.047
KANO

02:53.133 --> 02:54.802
I HAVE GYM FIFTH PERIOD...

02:55.511 --> 02:56.804
I have to take this to her!

02:58.222 --> 02:59.264
I'LL BRING IT TO YOU!

02:59.348 --> 03:00.557
WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?

03:00.641 --> 03:03.018
SOMEWHERE SECLUDED WOULD BE BEST, RIGHT?

03:03.102 --> 03:05.145
HOW ABOUT THE AV ROOM?

03:05.229 --> 03:06.146
ROGER THAT

03:06.230 --> 03:08.732
<i>I was in such a rush this morning.</i>

03:08.816 --> 03:11.485
<i>We can't have anyone see us.</i>

03:11.568 --> 03:13.362
<i>I need to do this quickly.</i>

03:13.445 --> 03:14.738
Yo, Taiki.

03:17.741 --> 03:19.159
Why are you avoiding me?

03:19.243 --> 03:21.286
It's not what you think.

03:21.370 --> 03:23.038
This is perfect.

03:23.122 --> 03:24.415
Come practice with me.

03:24.498 --> 03:27.793
Sorry! I'll make it up after school!

03:27.876 --> 03:29.336
He ran away.

03:30.004 --> 03:31.922
AV ROOM

03:34.049 --> 03:36.260
<i>This room is usually empty.</i>

03:37.761 --> 03:38.679
Taiki.

03:39.305 --> 03:41.181
Hina! What are you doing here?

03:41.265 --> 03:42.433
RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS MEETING

03:42.516 --> 03:44.935
We're holding a rhythmic gymnastics
team meeting.

03:45.019 --> 03:46.186
<i>What?</i>

03:46.812 --> 03:47.938
You need something?

03:48.022 --> 03:49.523
Not particularly.

03:52.776 --> 03:54.695
- You dropped--
- Stop!

03:54.778 --> 03:56.196
KANO

03:56.280 --> 03:58.699
Listen, don't touch that.

03:58.782 --> 04:00.200
Why not?

04:00.284 --> 04:01.493
Hey.

04:01.577 --> 04:02.703
Hey, hey.

04:04.288 --> 04:06.665
Well, to be honest,

04:06.749 --> 04:09.460
I haven't washed that since last summer.

04:11.378 --> 04:13.464
- Get out of here.
- Okay.

04:15.257 --> 04:16.467
Hold on, Taiki.

04:17.384 --> 04:20.054
You were wearing your gym uniform
in gym class.

04:20.721 --> 04:23.057
If you haven't washed it
since junior high...

04:23.557 --> 04:26.727
The truth is, I've been wearing it
without ever washing it.

04:28.187 --> 04:29.605
Be gone.

04:29.688 --> 04:30.731
Okay.

04:31.398 --> 04:32.983
<i>Honestly.</i>

04:34.276 --> 04:36.528
<i>Why are there people everywhere?</i>

04:38.030 --> 04:40.824
<i>At this rate, Chinatsu Senpai
will have to wear my uniform.</i>

04:40.908 --> 04:41.909
INOMATA

04:42.743 --> 04:44.078
<i>There's no time left.</i>

04:44.161 --> 04:45.162
CHINATSU KANO
NEW MESSAGE

04:46.497 --> 04:49.416
"Come to the west side of the roof"?

04:49.500 --> 04:51.168
NO TRESPASSING

05:02.638 --> 05:03.806
You're here.

05:04.723 --> 05:07.309
Thank goodness we were able to meet up.

05:07.393 --> 05:09.645
How do you have a key to the roof?

05:09.728 --> 05:11.980
I borrowed it from my friend
in the astronomy club.

05:13.107 --> 05:14.316
Here.

05:14.400 --> 05:16.777
Thank you. You're a lifesaver.

05:17.653 --> 05:20.322
<i>So this is what Chinatsu Senpai
is like at school.</i>

05:22.658 --> 05:23.826
It's nothing.

05:25.869 --> 05:29.623
Crap! You have to hurry,
or you'll be late!

05:29.706 --> 05:31.834
What are you doing?

05:31.917 --> 05:34.962
I thought I'd change here
because there's no time.

05:35.045 --> 05:36.088
Here?

05:36.171 --> 05:37.798
Don't worry.

05:37.881 --> 05:40.592
Girls in athletics learn
to change anywhere.

05:40.676 --> 05:42.219
We're trained to.

05:42.302 --> 05:44.388
<i>That's not the issue!</i>

05:45.180 --> 05:47.599
I'll make sure nobody comes up here.

05:47.683 --> 05:48.600
Sorry.

05:49.393 --> 05:52.479
<i>I've said this before,
but she's way too defenseless.</i>

05:52.563 --> 05:56.150
<i>Does she not understand how cute she is?</i>

05:58.694 --> 06:00.195
<i>Crap!</i>

06:00.279 --> 06:03.949
<i>These sounds are making me imagine things!</i>

06:04.449 --> 06:06.869
- For real?
- So then...

06:16.003 --> 06:16.879
All done.

06:17.754 --> 06:18.714
You okay?

06:18.797 --> 06:21.675
Ten more seconds,
and I would've been a goner.

06:23.051 --> 06:24.052
Ready to go?

06:24.136 --> 06:25.929
You go on ahead.

06:26.013 --> 06:27.014
Okay.

06:29.391 --> 06:30.642
Thanks.

06:34.146 --> 06:36.982
<i>Getting changed right in front of me...</i>

06:38.442 --> 06:41.445
<i>That must mean
she doesn't view me as a guy.</i>

06:44.198 --> 06:47.409
<i>I need to work on that.</i>

06:48.160 --> 06:49.203
Good practice.

06:49.286 --> 06:50.996
Did someone grab the shuttlecocks?

06:51.079 --> 06:53.165
What time tomorrow?

06:53.790 --> 06:54.791
Taiki!

06:56.251 --> 06:58.295
You've got regional prelims tomorrow?

06:59.171 --> 07:02.591
Make sure you don't get all worked up
and embarrass yourself.

07:02.674 --> 07:04.343
Mind your business!

07:05.969 --> 07:08.305
I'll make sure Kyo films it.

07:09.640 --> 07:11.391
So I've been wondering...

07:11.475 --> 07:12.476
Not even a little.

07:12.559 --> 07:13.560
That right?

07:14.353 --> 07:17.147
She's right, though. Don't get worked up.

07:17.231 --> 07:20.067
You have me for doubles,
so that's a guaranteed win.

07:20.150 --> 07:22.319
<i>He's so confident!</i>

07:22.402 --> 07:26.240
You just need to finish in the top 16
in the singles next week.

07:26.323 --> 07:27.783
I'll be fine!

07:27.866 --> 07:29.993
I'm a lot better than before.

07:30.077 --> 07:31.995
I'll even make it
to the top eight or four.

07:32.621 --> 07:35.582
Well, just so you know,
you forgot your racket bag.

07:37.209 --> 07:39.002
Why didn't you mention it earlier?

07:39.086 --> 07:40.671
I wondered when you'd notice.

07:40.754 --> 07:42.047
I'll be right back!

07:45.175 --> 07:47.928
Taiki! Make sure you pack your uniform!

07:48.011 --> 07:51.515
And don't forget your shoes and racket!

07:51.598 --> 07:52.683
They're already packed.

07:52.766 --> 07:58.188
<i>Seeing Mom like this,
I understand where I get it from.</i>

07:58.272 --> 08:00.190
How many towels do you need? Eight?

08:00.274 --> 08:01.775
I don't need any!

08:02.401 --> 08:04.236
I've already packed everything I need.

08:04.319 --> 08:05.195
Really?

08:12.744 --> 08:14.204
Taiki!

08:15.539 --> 08:17.541
- Laundry!
- Gimme a towel!

08:17.624 --> 08:19.001
Here!

08:19.084 --> 08:20.460
Hurry!

08:22.170 --> 08:24.047
<i>Get it together.</i>

08:24.131 --> 08:27.968
<i>I know it's your first high school match,
but it's not your first rodeo.</i>

08:28.552 --> 08:30.304
<i>Why are you so nervous?</i>

08:30.387 --> 08:31.722
<i>Calm down.</i>

08:31.805 --> 08:34.975
<i>Don't go out there and lose
because of some stupid mistake.</i>

08:35.809 --> 08:39.730
<i>There's nothing to feel pressured about.</i>

08:45.777 --> 08:47.863
<i>Exercise to clear the mind!</i>

08:47.946 --> 08:49.489
<i>You're going to nationals, right?</i>

08:49.573 --> 08:50.741
<i>Get it together!</i>

08:52.993 --> 08:54.620
You're practicing this late?

08:56.246 --> 08:57.789
Chinatsu Senpai.

08:59.916 --> 09:02.502
I decided to do some practice swings
to move my body.

09:03.879 --> 09:04.880
Taiki.

09:04.963 --> 09:06.506
Your shirt's inside out.

09:10.302 --> 09:12.763
<i>Okay, I might not be fine.</i>

09:22.314 --> 09:23.523
Sorry!

09:25.192 --> 09:28.987
<i>She didn't seem to care
about changing in front of me.</i>

09:29.529 --> 09:31.531
<i>But this she minds.</i>

09:32.407 --> 09:33.533
Taiki.

09:33.617 --> 09:34.785
Yes?

09:34.868 --> 09:37.037
I didn't know you had a six-pack.

09:37.746 --> 09:38.789
<i>That's what it was?</i>

09:39.581 --> 09:41.958
I guess you do work out a lot.

09:42.668 --> 09:43.543
That reminds me.

09:43.627 --> 09:46.797
Haryu said your body was coming along.

09:48.215 --> 09:52.010
Just because I got a little muscle
doesn't make me better at badminton.

09:54.304 --> 09:55.847
Wow, talk about humble.

10:00.227 --> 10:01.144
Taiki.

10:02.938 --> 10:04.189
What is it?

10:06.149 --> 10:07.442
<i>Hyakue.</i>

10:08.944 --> 10:10.195
What?

10:10.278 --> 10:12.322
It's a pressure point on your head.

10:12.406 --> 10:14.199
It can help you relax.

10:14.783 --> 10:17.369
There's no point in running around
the day before.

10:17.452 --> 10:19.621
You've already put in the hard work.

10:20.497 --> 10:24.376
So stop overthinking things
and go show them what you can do.

10:25.544 --> 10:26.586
Got it?

10:27.212 --> 10:28.171
Yeah.

10:29.589 --> 10:31.133
<i>Okay, this pressure point</i>

10:32.092 --> 10:33.468
<i>really works.</i>

10:35.429 --> 10:36.471
Besides,

10:38.056 --> 10:41.393
you still have next year
and the year after.

10:42.144 --> 10:43.395
<i>The year after?</i>

10:43.979 --> 10:45.856
<i>But that's after you graduate.</i>

10:47.357 --> 10:49.860
You'll be even stronger than you are now.

10:49.943 --> 10:51.361
That's not good enough for me.

11:04.708 --> 11:05.667
Good night.

11:17.596 --> 11:18.722
Okay!

11:19.306 --> 11:20.515
Let's go!

11:21.433 --> 11:23.018
Looks like you got over your nerves.

11:24.352 --> 11:26.021
I don't have time to be nervous.

11:28.356 --> 11:30.775
Well, good for you.

11:31.568 --> 11:35.030
<i>The doubles matches are about to begin.</i>

11:35.113 --> 11:36.031
ROUND 1

11:36.114 --> 11:37.282
Out!

11:37.365 --> 11:38.783
ROUND 3

11:38.867 --> 11:40.785
ADVANCED TO BEST 16

11:40.869 --> 11:42.621
- Huh?
- What?

11:42.704 --> 11:44.831
I mean, it's going so smoothly.

11:44.915 --> 11:47.459
Like we're not gonna
make it out of regional prelims.

11:47.542 --> 11:48.585
You have me, dummy.

11:49.169 --> 11:51.046
Please sign the match sheet.

11:52.047 --> 11:56.051
Although it's painfully clear
what you need to work on.

11:57.260 --> 11:59.679
<i>He's right. These were real games</i>

11:59.763 --> 12:03.725
<i>and there were so many instances
where he covered me.</i>

12:09.231 --> 12:10.565
<i>He's so loud.</i>

12:10.649 --> 12:12.817
<i>Such a bold playstyle too.</i>

12:15.195 --> 12:17.072
<i>Or so I thought, but he's calculated.</i>

12:17.822 --> 12:19.574
One more down.

12:20.909 --> 12:22.577
- Let's go.
- Okay.

12:23.411 --> 12:24.538
Harry Senpai?

12:26.331 --> 12:30.877
If it isn't the former KTS Junior member
Kengo Haryu.

12:30.961 --> 12:32.212
Sorry, wrong person.

12:32.295 --> 12:33.964
You crook!

12:36.299 --> 12:37.842
Do you know him?

12:37.926 --> 12:40.720
He used to be my doubles partner
in my junior days.

12:41.513 --> 12:44.224
Meet Shimotomi High's Shoichiro Kishi.

12:44.307 --> 12:47.018
He called you a crook.

12:47.102 --> 12:49.271
I have no idea why.

12:49.354 --> 12:51.982
That's because Harry Senpai
broke his promise.

12:52.065 --> 12:56.736
You said you'd give me
Chinatsu Kano's number!

12:56.820 --> 12:57.988
<i>What?</i>

12:58.071 --> 13:00.782
I said if you beat me.

13:00.865 --> 13:02.367
But I did.

13:02.450 --> 13:04.160
In an official match.

13:04.244 --> 13:07.414
Do you know Chinatsu Senpai?

13:08.123 --> 13:08.999
Yeah.

13:09.082 --> 13:13.753
How could I forget that fateful day
last year at Eimei's school festival?

13:13.837 --> 13:16.006
SCHOOL FESTIVAL

13:17.299 --> 13:18.258
My wallet's gone!

13:18.341 --> 13:20.552
It was a limited edition!

13:20.635 --> 13:21.469
Excuse me!

13:32.606 --> 13:35.567
It was like my favorite idol
popped out of my wallet.

13:35.650 --> 13:36.818
What anime is that?

13:36.901 --> 13:38.111
Don't humor him.

13:39.321 --> 13:42.699
After that, I heard she was friends
with Harry Senpai,

13:42.782 --> 13:44.826
so I asked for an introduction.

13:44.909 --> 13:46.953
But he never came through.

13:47.037 --> 13:48.038
Isn't he awful?

13:48.121 --> 13:50.206
You agree with me, right?

13:50.290 --> 13:52.250
<i>Nice job, Haryu Senpai.</i>

13:52.834 --> 13:55.462
Which is why today,
after I crush you in the doubles,

13:55.545 --> 13:57.839
you'd better introduce me to her!

13:58.840 --> 13:59.883
Kishi.

14:00.383 --> 14:04.304
I don't feel too well.

14:06.181 --> 14:07.849
I think I'm dying.

14:08.391 --> 14:10.894
Yokoyama!

14:11.394 --> 14:14.230
Lucky you already made it past
the prelims.

14:14.314 --> 14:15.315
Fine, then!

14:15.398 --> 14:17.984
We'll settle this at next week's singles!

14:18.068 --> 14:19.903
I'm not playing in that.

14:19.986 --> 14:22.989
When's your next official match, then?

14:23.073 --> 14:24.532
The prefectural qualifiers in June.

14:24.616 --> 14:25.951
June?

14:26.034 --> 14:27.869
I'll find a sub, and we can play now!

14:27.953 --> 14:29.829
- No way.
- I won't leave until you do!

14:29.913 --> 14:31.581
Okay, fine.

14:32.207 --> 14:36.086
I'll give you her number if you beat Taiki
in the singles next week.

14:37.879 --> 14:40.090
More accurately,
I'll ask her if it's okay.

14:40.173 --> 14:41.591
You can't just volunteer me!

14:41.675 --> 14:42.592
Taiki?

14:42.676 --> 14:44.386
My doubles partner over there.

14:51.685 --> 14:52.727
This is a lock!

14:54.270 --> 14:56.022
What should my first message be?

14:58.608 --> 14:59.901
Be careful.

14:59.985 --> 15:02.612
He's better than he looks.

15:05.699 --> 15:08.368
<i>What a jerk!</i>

15:10.829 --> 15:13.123
<i>How did I get roped into this?</i>

15:14.082 --> 15:18.461
<i>I don't like the idea of Kishi getting
Chinatsu Senpai's number either.</i>

15:19.587 --> 15:21.464
<i>Doesn't mean he should just volunteer me.</i>

15:21.548 --> 15:22.882
That's right.

15:22.966 --> 15:25.385
<i>That's Chinatsu Senpai's voice.</i>

15:26.177 --> 15:28.388
<i>It feels a little awkward to see her now.</i>

15:28.471 --> 15:31.933
<i>I'm sure she didn't like
my attitude yesterday.</i>

15:32.976 --> 15:36.896
<i>I'm the one so hung up on going
to nationals this year.</i>

15:36.980 --> 15:39.441
I'm so glad Taiki won.

15:39.524 --> 15:42.152
Well, he has been practicing hard.

15:42.235 --> 15:45.196
He swings his racket at home
instead of studying.

15:45.822 --> 15:47.198
So he'd better win.

15:47.782 --> 15:50.577
And I made <i>tonkatsu</i>
for him today to celebrate.

15:50.660 --> 15:52.746
It'd be awkward if he lost.

15:54.664 --> 15:57.167
Honestly, I was a little worried

15:57.250 --> 15:59.544
that he's pushing himself too hard.

16:00.295 --> 16:04.507
He's got two more years,
so what's the rush?

16:05.133 --> 16:05.967
Yes.

16:06.051 --> 16:08.803
I said that to him too.

16:08.887 --> 16:11.264
That he still has next year and the next.

16:11.347 --> 16:13.975
But then his attitude changed.
It was strange...

16:14.059 --> 16:14.976
Isn't he always?

16:15.060 --> 16:16.436
<i>Shut up.</i>

16:16.519 --> 16:18.980
No, I understand why he'd get mad.

16:19.064 --> 16:23.651
I mean, it's like I was saying
that he was free to lose this year.

16:23.735 --> 16:25.028
I only realized it after.

16:25.111 --> 16:26.237
<i>That's true.</i>

16:27.197 --> 16:30.658
<i>But I was just a little sad
about being reminded</i>

16:30.742 --> 16:32.744
<i>that I'm a year behind her.</i>

16:32.827 --> 16:36.206
It's not like you meant it that way.

16:36.289 --> 16:37.499
Of course not!

16:37.582 --> 16:39.751
Then don't worry about it.

16:40.877 --> 16:42.253
I know, but...

16:43.004 --> 16:48.760
Part of it was me realizing
how quickly this year has gone by.

16:48.843 --> 16:52.222
When I think that I only have a year left,

16:52.305 --> 16:55.767
I got a little envious of Taiki.

16:56.518 --> 16:58.812
I didn't say that to encourage him.

16:58.895 --> 17:01.773
I was just expressing my own insecurities.

17:01.856 --> 17:03.274
And I regret that.

17:04.943 --> 17:06.027
Chinatsu.

17:06.611 --> 17:08.363
You're such a nice girl.

17:09.405 --> 17:10.990
That's not...

17:11.074 --> 17:12.408
So pure!

17:13.284 --> 17:14.536
I'm back!

17:14.619 --> 17:16.538
Welcome home!

17:16.621 --> 17:18.414
Congrats.

17:18.498 --> 17:19.415
Thanks.

17:19.499 --> 17:21.543
You got a good doubles partner, huh?

17:21.626 --> 17:23.086
That's not all of it.

17:23.628 --> 17:24.546
Besides,

17:25.380 --> 17:27.215
I'll win my singles matches too!

17:27.298 --> 17:29.050
You don't have to yell.

17:31.594 --> 17:33.054
I'm going to put my stuff away.

17:33.138 --> 17:34.889
Such a busy boy.

17:35.515 --> 17:36.808
<i>If she's feeling insecure,</i>

17:37.851 --> 17:39.894
<i>that's all the more reason I can't lose.</i>

17:41.229 --> 17:45.400
Where does he get all that confidence?

17:46.401 --> 17:48.987
You honestly don't have to worry
about what you said.

17:49.070 --> 17:49.904
No.

17:51.156 --> 17:53.658
I could learn from his example.

18:01.416 --> 18:02.667
Good luck to you.

18:04.752 --> 18:05.962
Rock, paper, scissors!

18:06.045 --> 18:07.964
They're so fired up.

18:08.047 --> 18:10.175
They're only determining who serves first...

18:11.176 --> 18:14.679
Anyway, I heard you put some weird stakes
on this match.

18:14.762 --> 18:16.347
Don't worry.

18:16.431 --> 18:18.641
I won't tell him
if she doesn't want me to.

18:19.184 --> 18:22.061
<i>Chinatsu Senpai
might be too nice to say no.</i>

18:22.145 --> 18:25.273
Besides, I think Taiki's going to win.

18:25.356 --> 18:26.274
What?

18:26.357 --> 18:28.943
Obviously, since I'm the one training him.

18:29.861 --> 18:32.947
In fact, if he loses,
I'll put him through hell.

18:33.031 --> 18:34.032
Shudder!

18:34.532 --> 18:35.491
GIVE YOUR ALL

18:35.575 --> 18:37.952
<i>I'm glad I'm not his doubles partner.</i>

18:38.578 --> 18:40.496
First game. Love-all.

18:40.580 --> 18:41.456
Play!

18:50.256 --> 18:54.177
Still, his smashes are powerful.

18:54.260 --> 18:56.721
He's good at putting his weight behind it.

18:56.804 --> 18:58.389
You can't just return them.

19:05.230 --> 19:06.522
There you are.

19:08.191 --> 19:09.275
What's up, ladies?

19:09.359 --> 19:10.985
What're you doing here?

19:11.069 --> 19:13.821
We had a practice game
against Kita High next door.

19:13.905 --> 19:16.157
We came to check out the tournament.

19:16.241 --> 19:17.784
Is anyone playing?

19:17.867 --> 19:19.160
My doubles partner.

19:20.453 --> 19:22.413
Oh, him? Let's cheer him on.

19:25.500 --> 19:27.835
Is it because we came?

19:27.919 --> 19:29.629
He can't get any attacks off.

19:29.712 --> 19:30.880
Are you one of those people

19:30.964 --> 19:34.425
who think figure skaters fail their jumps
when you watch?

19:35.093 --> 19:37.220
It's probably his strategy.

19:37.303 --> 19:38.429
His strategy?

19:38.513 --> 19:41.683
It takes time to get used to the speed
of someone's smashes.

19:41.766 --> 19:43.434
Taiki's slow at repositioning.

19:43.518 --> 19:47.438
So he's playing defensive at first
to tire out his opponent.

19:48.314 --> 19:51.693
If you look carefully,
his shots are keeping his opponent moving.

19:51.776 --> 19:54.779
The kid's gotten pretty smart.

19:54.862 --> 19:57.240
<i>Match number 15...</i>

19:57.323 --> 19:58.533
I should get going.

19:58.616 --> 19:59.701
Good luck.

20:01.369 --> 20:02.745
Not going to watch up close?

20:03.788 --> 20:05.039
I'm fine here.

20:05.123 --> 20:07.542
So, actually, I know your situation.

20:08.042 --> 20:09.627
Taiki told me.

20:10.169 --> 20:12.213
He said he trusts you.

20:16.217 --> 20:18.469
<i>Okay, she is cute.</i>

20:18.553 --> 20:21.931
There's something nerve-racking
about tournaments.

20:22.015 --> 20:25.018
Each shot feels heavier.

20:27.687 --> 20:28.938
Did you know?

20:29.022 --> 20:32.525
This game has your phone number
on the line.

20:34.068 --> 20:36.988
And just so you know,
Haryu Senpai's to blame.

20:37.071 --> 20:38.489
So take it up with him.

20:39.407 --> 20:41.743
It's just that Taiki
gets nothing for winning.

20:42.410 --> 20:43.703
So,

20:43.786 --> 20:47.248
would you take him to the aquarium
or something if he wins?

20:48.875 --> 20:52.545
We can't use the gym tomorrow anyways,
so there's no practice scheduled.

20:53.129 --> 20:54.005
Besides,

20:54.756 --> 20:58.009
you're part of the reason
he's so motivated.

20:58.092 --> 21:00.887
I doubt I have that much influence on him...

21:00.970 --> 21:02.013
Yeah, you do.

21:02.680 --> 21:06.768
She stayed behind in Japan
by herself to make the nationals!

21:06.851 --> 21:10.021
She practices first thing
in the morning! So will I!

21:10.104 --> 21:12.190
He's easily swayed.

21:13.608 --> 21:17.028
He's always been stubborn.
Once he makes up his mind, that's it.

21:17.904 --> 21:22.283
But even as a friend,
I can say he's been doing well lately.

21:23.076 --> 21:26.788
The old him wouldn't have been able
to pick up those shots.

21:28.373 --> 21:29.665
I'm sure that part of it

21:30.249 --> 21:33.086
is because he has someone close
with the same goals

21:33.169 --> 21:36.798
to keep him disciplined
and motivate him to put in the effort.

21:37.757 --> 21:40.009
So, if he's able to achieve
some good results,

21:40.093 --> 21:42.804
I think he deserves some kind of reward.

21:53.314 --> 21:54.399
Yes!

21:55.316 --> 21:57.318
<i>He's fired up.</i>

21:57.402 --> 21:58.444
Okay.

22:00.238 --> 22:04.117
If Taiki wins, we'll go to the aquarium.

23:30.995 --> 23:36.000
