1
00:00:01,627 --> 00:00:03,796
It's been about a month
since Chinatsu Senpai
2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:05,465
started living with us.
3
00:00:13,806 --> 00:00:14,724
Good morning.
4
00:00:16,309 --> 00:00:20,188
My eyes have gotten used
to her dazzling aura.
5
00:00:21,606 --> 00:00:24,233
I washed your gym uniform,
so don't forget to take it.
6
00:00:24,317 --> 00:00:27,195
I used to hit the snooze button
about five times,
7
00:00:27,278 --> 00:00:29,822
but lately, I've been stopping
after about two.
8
00:00:37,288 --> 00:00:38,915
Having a crush
9
00:00:39,749 --> 00:00:41,000
is so wonderful!
10
00:00:47,256 --> 00:00:50,510
BLUE BOX
11
00:02:07,044 --> 00:02:12,967
BLUE BOX
12
00:02:13,050 --> 00:02:15,970
EPISODE 4
IF HE WINS
13
00:02:18,764 --> 00:02:20,600
Thank you for the meal.
14
00:02:20,683 --> 00:02:21,976
You have your match tomorrow.
15
00:02:22,059 --> 00:02:23,519
Yup!
16
00:02:23,603 --> 00:02:25,188
You're in a good mood.
17
00:02:25,271 --> 00:02:28,274
I guess I'm just fulfilled every day.
18
00:02:28,357 --> 00:02:30,401
You seem to have settled down quickly.
19
00:02:31,819 --> 00:02:35,156
You know, a boy and a girl,
living under the same roof,
20
00:02:35,239 --> 00:02:37,491
I'm surprised nothing's happened so far.
21
00:02:37,575 --> 00:02:38,993
That's because...
22
00:02:41,078 --> 00:02:42,496
CHINATSU KANO
SORRY TO BOTHER YOU!
23
00:02:42,580 --> 00:02:44,498
Chinatsu Senpai!
24
00:02:44,582 --> 00:02:46,500
DID YOU TAKE MY UNIFORM BY ACCIDENT?
25
00:02:48,586 --> 00:02:50,004
KANO
26
00:02:53,090 --> 00:02:54,759
I HAVE GYM FIFTH PERIOD...
27
00:02:55,468 --> 00:02:56,761
I have to take this to her!
28
00:02:58,179 --> 00:02:59,221
I'LL BRING IT TO YOU!
29
00:02:59,305 --> 00:03:00,514
{\an8}WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?
30
00:03:00,598 --> 00:03:02,975
{\an8}SOMEWHERE SECLUDED WOULD BE BEST, RIGHT?
31
00:03:03,059 --> 00:03:05,102
{\an8}HOW ABOUT THE AV ROOM?
32
00:03:05,186 --> 00:03:06,103
{\an8}ROGER THAT
33
00:03:06,187 --> 00:03:08,689
I was in such a rush this morning.
34
00:03:08,773 --> 00:03:11,442
We can't have anyone see us.
35
00:03:11,525 --> 00:03:13,319
I need to do this quickly.
36
00:03:13,402 --> 00:03:14,695
Yo, Taiki.
37
00:03:17,698 --> 00:03:19,116
Why are you avoiding me?
38
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,243
It's not what you think.
39
00:03:21,327 --> 00:03:22,995
This is perfect.
40
00:03:23,079 --> 00:03:24,372
Come practice with me.
41
00:03:24,455 --> 00:03:27,750
Sorry! I'll make it up after school!
42
00:03:27,833 --> 00:03:29,293
He ran away.
43
00:03:29,961 --> 00:03:31,879
AV ROOM
44
00:03:34,006 --> 00:03:36,217
This room is usually empty.
45
00:03:37,718 --> 00:03:38,636
Taiki.
46
00:03:39,262 --> 00:03:41,138
Hina! What are you doing here?
47
00:03:41,222 --> 00:03:42,390
RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS MEETING
48
00:03:42,473 --> 00:03:44,892
We're holding a rhythmic gymnastics
team meeting.
49
00:03:44,976 --> 00:03:46,143
What?
50
00:03:46,769 --> 00:03:47,895
You need something?
51
00:03:47,979 --> 00:03:49,480
Not particularly.
52
00:03:52,733 --> 00:03:54,652
- You dropped--
- Stop!
53
00:03:54,735 --> 00:03:56,153
{\an8}KANO
54
00:03:56,237 --> 00:03:58,656
Listen, don't touch that.
55
00:03:58,739 --> 00:04:00,157
Why not?
56
00:04:00,241 --> 00:04:01,450
Hey.
57
00:04:01,534 --> 00:04:02,660
Hey, hey.
58
00:04:04,245 --> 00:04:06,622
Well, to be honest,
59
00:04:06,706 --> 00:04:09,417
I haven't washed that since last summer.
60
00:04:11,335 --> 00:04:13,421
- Get out of here.
- Okay.
61
00:04:15,214 --> 00:04:16,424
Hold on, Taiki.
62
00:04:17,341 --> 00:04:20,011
You were wearing your gym uniform
in gym class.
63
00:04:20,678 --> 00:04:23,014
If you haven't washed it
since junior high...
64
00:04:23,514 --> 00:04:26,684
The truth is, I've been wearing it
without ever washing it.
65
00:04:28,144 --> 00:04:29,562
Be gone.
66
00:04:29,645 --> 00:04:30,688
Okay.
67
00:04:31,355 --> 00:04:32,940
Honestly.
68
00:04:34,233 --> 00:04:36,485
Why are there people everywhere?
69
00:04:37,987 --> 00:04:40,781
At this rate, Chinatsu Senpai
will have to wear my uniform.
70
00:04:40,865 --> 00:04:41,866
INOMATA
71
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:44,035
There's no time left.
72
00:04:44,118 --> 00:04:45,119
{\an8}CHINATSU KANO
NEW MESSAGE
73
00:04:46,454 --> 00:04:49,373
{\an8}"Come to the west side of the roof"?
74
00:04:49,457 --> 00:04:51,125
NO TRESPASSING
75
00:05:02,595 --> 00:05:03,763
You're here.
76
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,266
Thank goodness we were able to meet up.
77
00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:09,602
How do you have a key to the roof?
78
00:05:09,685 --> 00:05:11,937
I borrowed it from my friend
in the astronomy club.
79
00:05:13,064 --> 00:05:14,273
Here.
80
00:05:14,357 --> 00:05:16,734
Thank you. You're a lifesaver.
81
00:05:17,610 --> 00:05:20,279
So this is what Chinatsu Senpai
is like at school.
82
00:05:22,615 --> 00:05:23,783
It's nothing.
83
00:05:25,826 --> 00:05:29,580
Crap! You have to hurry,
or you'll be late!
84
00:05:29,663 --> 00:05:31,791
What are you doing?
85
00:05:31,874 --> 00:05:34,919
I thought I'd change here
because there's no time.
86
00:05:35,002 --> 00:05:36,045
Here?
87
00:05:36,128 --> 00:05:37,755
Don't worry.
88
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:40,549
Girls in athletics learn
to change anywhere.
89
00:05:40,633 --> 00:05:42,176
We're trained to.
90
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:44,345
That's not the issue!
91
00:05:45,137 --> 00:05:47,556
I'll make sure nobody comes up here.
92
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,557
Sorry.
93
00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:52,436
I've said this before,
but she's way too defenseless.
94
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,107
Does she not understand how cute she is?
95
00:05:58,651 --> 00:06:00,152
Crap!
96
00:06:00,236 --> 00:06:03,906
These sounds are making me imagine things!
97
00:06:04,406 --> 00:06:06,826
- For real?
- So then...
98
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:16,836
All done.
99
00:06:17,711 --> 00:06:18,671
You okay?
100
00:06:18,754 --> 00:06:21,632
Ten more seconds,
and I would've been a goner.
101
00:06:23,008 --> 00:06:24,009
Ready to go?
102
00:06:24,093 --> 00:06:25,886
You go on ahead.
103
00:06:25,970 --> 00:06:26,971
Okay.
104
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:30,599
Thanks.
105
00:06:34,103 --> 00:06:36,939
Getting changed right in front of me...
106
00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:41,402
That must mean
she doesn't view me as a guy.
107
00:06:44,155 --> 00:06:47,366
I need to work on that.
108
00:06:48,117 --> 00:06:49,160
Good practice.
109
00:06:49,243 --> 00:06:50,953
Did someone grab the shuttlecocks?
110
00:06:51,036 --> 00:06:53,122
What time tomorrow?
111
00:06:53,747 --> 00:06:54,748
Taiki!
112
00:06:56,208 --> 00:06:58,252
You've got regional prelims tomorrow?
113
00:06:59,128 --> 00:07:02,548
Make sure you don't get all worked up
and embarrass yourself.
114
00:07:02,631 --> 00:07:04,300
Mind your business!
115
00:07:05,926 --> 00:07:08,262
I'll make sure Kyo films it.
116
00:07:09,597 --> 00:07:11,348
So I've been wondering...
117
00:07:11,432 --> 00:07:12,433
Not even a little.
118
00:07:12,516 --> 00:07:13,517
That right?
119
00:07:14,310 --> 00:07:17,104
She's right, though. Don't get worked up.
120
00:07:17,188 --> 00:07:20,024
You have me for doubles,
so that's a guaranteed win.
121
00:07:20,107 --> 00:07:22,276
He's so confident!
122
00:07:22,359 --> 00:07:26,197
You just need to finish in the top 16
in the singles next week.
123
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,740
I'll be fine!
124
00:07:27,823 --> 00:07:29,950
I'm a lot better than before.
125
00:07:30,034 --> 00:07:31,952
I'll even make it
to the top eight or four.
126
00:07:32,578 --> 00:07:35,539
Well, just so you know,
you forgot your racket bag.
127
00:07:37,166 --> 00:07:38,959
Why didn't you mention it earlier?
128
00:07:39,043 --> 00:07:40,628
I wondered when you'd notice.
129
00:07:40,711 --> 00:07:42,004
I'll be right back!
130
00:07:45,132 --> 00:07:47,885
Taiki! Make sure you pack your uniform!
131
00:07:47,968 --> 00:07:51,472
And don't forget your shoes and racket!
132
00:07:51,555 --> 00:07:52,640
They're already packed.
133
00:07:52,723 --> 00:07:58,145
Seeing Mom like this,
I understand where I get it from.
134
00:07:58,229 --> 00:08:00,147
How many towels do you need? Eight?
135
00:08:00,231 --> 00:08:01,732
I don't need any!
136
00:08:02,358 --> 00:08:04,193
I've already packed everything I need.
137
00:08:04,276 --> 00:08:05,152
Really?
138
00:08:12,701 --> 00:08:14,161
Taiki!
139
00:08:15,496 --> 00:08:17,498
- Laundry!
- Gimme a towel!
140
00:08:17,581 --> 00:08:18,958
Here!
141
00:08:19,041 --> 00:08:20,417
Hurry!
142
00:08:22,127 --> 00:08:24,004
{\an8}Get it together.
143
00:08:24,088 --> 00:08:27,925
{\an8}I know it's your first high school match,
but it's not your first rodeo.
144
00:08:28,509 --> 00:08:30,261
{\an8}Why are you so nervous?
145
00:08:30,344 --> 00:08:31,679
{\an8}Calm down.
146
00:08:31,762 --> 00:08:34,932
{\an8}Don't go out there and lose
because of some stupid mistake.
147
00:08:35,766 --> 00:08:39,687
There's nothing to feel pressured about.
148
00:08:45,734 --> 00:08:47,820
Exercise to clear the mind!
149
00:08:47,903 --> 00:08:49,446
You're going to nationals, right?
150
00:08:49,530 --> 00:08:50,698
Get it together!
151
00:08:52,950 --> 00:08:54,577
You're practicing this late?
152
00:08:56,203 --> 00:08:57,746
Chinatsu Senpai.
153
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:02,459
I decided to do some practice swings
to move my body.
154
00:09:03,836 --> 00:09:04,837
Taiki.
155
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,463
Your shirt's inside out.
156
00:09:10,259 --> 00:09:12,720
Okay, I might not be fine.
157
00:09:22,271 --> 00:09:23,480
Sorry!
158
00:09:25,149 --> 00:09:28,944
She didn't seem to care
about changing in front of me.
159
00:09:29,486 --> 00:09:31,488
But this she minds.
160
00:09:32,364 --> 00:09:33,490
Taiki.
161
00:09:33,574 --> 00:09:34,742
Yes?
162
00:09:34,825 --> 00:09:36,994
I didn't know you had a six-pack.
163
00:09:37,703 --> 00:09:38,746
That's what it was?
164
00:09:39,538 --> 00:09:41,915
I guess you do work out a lot.
165
00:09:42,625 --> 00:09:43,500
That reminds me.
166
00:09:43,584 --> 00:09:46,754
Haryu said your body was coming along.
167
00:09:48,172 --> 00:09:51,967
Just because I got a little muscle
doesn't make me better at badminton.
168
00:09:54,261 --> 00:09:55,804
Wow, talk about humble.
169
00:10:00,184 --> 00:10:01,101
Taiki.
170
00:10:02,895 --> 00:10:04,146
What is it?
171
00:10:06,106 --> 00:10:07,399
Hyakue.
172
00:10:08,901 --> 00:10:10,152
What?
173
00:10:10,235 --> 00:10:12,279
It's a pressure point on your head.
174
00:10:12,363 --> 00:10:14,156
It can help you relax.
175
00:10:14,740 --> 00:10:17,326
There's no point in running around
the day before.
176
00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:19,578
You've already put in the hard work.
177
00:10:20,454 --> 00:10:24,333
So stop overthinking things
and go show them what you can do.
178
00:10:25,501 --> 00:10:26,543
Got it?
179
00:10:27,169 --> 00:10:28,128
Yeah.
180
00:10:29,546 --> 00:10:31,090
Okay, this pressure point
181
00:10:32,049 --> 00:10:33,425
really works.
182
00:10:35,386 --> 00:10:36,428
Besides,
183
00:10:38,013 --> 00:10:41,350
you still have next year
and the year after.
184
00:10:42,101 --> 00:10:43,352
The year after?
185
00:10:43,936 --> 00:10:45,813
But that's after you graduate.
186
00:10:47,314 --> 00:10:49,817
You'll be even stronger than you are now.
187
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:51,318
That's not good enough for me.
188
00:11:04,665 --> 00:11:05,624
Good night.
189
00:11:17,553 --> 00:11:18,679
Okay!
190
00:11:19,263 --> 00:11:20,472
Let's go!
191
00:11:21,390 --> 00:11:22,975
Looks like you got over your nerves.
192
00:11:24,309 --> 00:11:25,978
I don't have time to be nervous.
193
00:11:28,313 --> 00:11:30,732
Well, good for you.
194
00:11:31,525 --> 00:11:34,987
The doubles matches are about to begin.
195
00:11:35,070 --> 00:11:35,988
ROUND 1
196
00:11:36,071 --> 00:11:37,239
Out!
197
00:11:37,322 --> 00:11:38,740
ROUND 3
198
00:11:38,824 --> 00:11:40,742
ADVANCED TO BEST 16
199
00:11:40,826 --> 00:11:42,578
- Huh?
- What?
200
00:11:42,661 --> 00:11:44,788
I mean, it's going so smoothly.
201
00:11:44,872 --> 00:11:47,416
Like we're not gonna
make it out of regional prelims.
202
00:11:47,499 --> 00:11:48,542
You have me, dummy.
203
00:11:49,126 --> 00:11:51,003
Please sign the match sheet.
204
00:11:52,004 --> 00:11:56,008
Although it's painfully clear
what you need to work on.
205
00:11:57,217 --> 00:11:59,636
He's right. These were real games
206
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,682
and there were so many instances
where he covered me.
207
00:12:09,188 --> 00:12:10,522
He's so loud.
208
00:12:10,606 --> 00:12:12,774
Such a bold playstyle too.
209
00:12:15,152 --> 00:12:17,029
Or so I thought, but he's calculated.
210
00:12:17,779 --> 00:12:19,531
One more down.
211
00:12:20,866 --> 00:12:22,534
- Let's go.
- Okay.
212
00:12:23,368 --> 00:12:24,495
Harry Senpai?
213
00:12:26,288 --> 00:12:30,834
If it isn't the former KTS Junior member
Kengo Haryu.
214
00:12:30,918 --> 00:12:32,169
Sorry, wrong person.
215
00:12:32,252 --> 00:12:33,921
You crook!
216
00:12:36,256 --> 00:12:37,799
Do you know him?
217
00:12:37,883 --> 00:12:40,677
He used to be my doubles partner
in my junior days.
218
00:12:41,470 --> 00:12:44,181
Meet Shimotomi High's Shoichiro Kishi.
219
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:46,975
He called you a crook.
220
00:12:47,059 --> 00:12:49,228
I have no idea why.
221
00:12:49,311 --> 00:12:51,939
That's because Harry Senpai
broke his promise.
222
00:12:52,022 --> 00:12:56,693
You said you'd give me
Chinatsu Kano's number!
223
00:12:56,777 --> 00:12:57,945
What?
224
00:12:58,028 --> 00:13:00,739
I said if you beat me.
225
00:13:00,822 --> 00:13:02,324
But I did.
226
00:13:02,407 --> 00:13:04,117
In an official match.
227
00:13:04,201 --> 00:13:07,371
Do you know Chinatsu Senpai?
228
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:08,956
Yeah.
229
00:13:09,039 --> 00:13:13,710
How could I forget that fateful day
last year at Eimei's school festival?
230
00:13:13,794 --> 00:13:15,963
SCHOOL FESTIVAL
231
00:13:17,256 --> 00:13:18,215
My wallet's gone!
232
00:13:18,298 --> 00:13:20,509
It was a limited edition!
233
00:13:20,592 --> 00:13:21,426
Excuse me!
234
00:13:32,563 --> 00:13:35,524
It was like my favorite idol
popped out of my wallet.
235
00:13:35,607 --> 00:13:36,775
What anime is that?
236
00:13:36,858 --> 00:13:38,068
Don't humor him.
237
00:13:39,278 --> 00:13:42,656
After that, I heard she was friends
with Harry Senpai,
238
00:13:42,739 --> 00:13:44,783
so I asked for an introduction.
239
00:13:44,866 --> 00:13:46,910
But he never came through.
240
00:13:46,994 --> 00:13:47,995
Isn't he awful?
241
00:13:48,078 --> 00:13:50,163
You agree with me, right?
242
00:13:50,247 --> 00:13:52,207
Nice job, Haryu Senpai.
243
00:13:52,791 --> 00:13:55,419
Which is why today,
after I crush you in the doubles,
244
00:13:55,502 --> 00:13:57,796
you'd better introduce me to her!
245
00:13:58,797 --> 00:13:59,840
Kishi.
246
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:04,261
I don't feel too well.
247
00:14:06,138 --> 00:14:07,806
I think I'm dying.
248
00:14:08,348 --> 00:14:10,851
Yokoyama!
249
00:14:11,351 --> 00:14:14,187
Lucky you already made it past
the prelims.
250
00:14:14,271 --> 00:14:15,272
Fine, then!
251
00:14:15,355 --> 00:14:17,941
We'll settle this at next week's singles!
252
00:14:18,025 --> 00:14:19,860
I'm not playing in that.
253
00:14:19,943 --> 00:14:22,946
When's your next official match, then?
254
00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:24,489
The prefectural qualifiers in June.
255
00:14:24,573 --> 00:14:25,908
June?
256
00:14:25,991 --> 00:14:27,826
I'll find a sub, and we can play now!
257
00:14:27,910 --> 00:14:29,786
- No way.
- I won't leave until you do!
258
00:14:29,870 --> 00:14:31,538
Okay, fine.
259
00:14:32,164 --> 00:14:36,043
I'll give you her number if you beat Taiki
in the singles next week.
260
00:14:37,836 --> 00:14:40,047
More accurately,
I'll ask her if it's okay.
261
00:14:40,130 --> 00:14:41,548
You can't just volunteer me!
262
00:14:41,632 --> 00:14:42,549
Taiki?
263
00:14:42,633 --> 00:14:44,343
My doubles partner over there.
264
00:14:51,642 --> 00:14:52,684
This is a lock!
265
00:14:54,227 --> 00:14:55,979
What should my first message be?
266
00:14:58,565 --> 00:14:59,858
Be careful.
267
00:14:59,942 --> 00:15:02,569
He's better than he looks.
268
00:15:05,656 --> 00:15:08,325
What a jerk!
269
00:15:10,786 --> 00:15:13,080
How did I get roped into this?
270
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:18,418
I don't like the idea of Kishi getting
Chinatsu Senpai's number either.
271
00:15:19,544 --> 00:15:21,421
Doesn't mean he should just volunteer me.
272
00:15:21,505 --> 00:15:22,839
That's right.
273
00:15:22,923 --> 00:15:25,342
That's Chinatsu Senpai's voice.
274
00:15:26,134 --> 00:15:28,345
It feels a little awkward to see her now.
275
00:15:28,428 --> 00:15:31,890
I'm sure she didn't like
my attitude yesterday.
276
00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:36,853
I'm the one so hung up on going
to nationals this year.
277
00:15:36,937 --> 00:15:39,398
I'm so glad Taiki won.
278
00:15:39,481 --> 00:15:42,109
Well, he has been practicing hard.
279
00:15:42,192 --> 00:15:45,153
He swings his racket at home
instead of studying.
280
00:15:45,779 --> 00:15:47,155
So he'd better win.
281
00:15:47,739 --> 00:15:50,534
And I made tonkatsu
for him today to celebrate.
282
00:15:50,617 --> 00:15:52,703
It'd be awkward if he lost.
283
00:15:54,621 --> 00:15:57,124
Honestly, I was a little worried
284
00:15:57,207 --> 00:15:59,501
that he's pushing himself too hard.
285
00:16:00,252 --> 00:16:04,464
He's got two more years,
so what's the rush?
286
00:16:05,090 --> 00:16:05,924
Yes.
287
00:16:06,008 --> 00:16:08,760
I said that to him too.
288
00:16:08,844 --> 00:16:11,221
That he still has next year and the next.
289
00:16:11,304 --> 00:16:13,932
But then his attitude changed.
It was strange...
290
00:16:14,016 --> 00:16:14,933
Isn't he always?
291
00:16:15,017 --> 00:16:16,393
Shut up.
292
00:16:16,476 --> 00:16:18,937
No, I understand why he'd get mad.
293
00:16:19,021 --> 00:16:23,608
I mean, it's like I was saying
that he was free to lose this year.
294
00:16:23,692 --> 00:16:24,985
I only realized it after.
295
00:16:25,068 --> 00:16:26,194
That's true.
296
00:16:27,154 --> 00:16:30,615
But I was just a little sad
about being reminded
297
00:16:30,699 --> 00:16:32,701
that I'm a year behind her.
298
00:16:32,784 --> 00:16:36,163
It's not like you meant it that way.
299
00:16:36,246 --> 00:16:37,456
Of course not!
300
00:16:37,539 --> 00:16:39,708
Then don't worry about it.
301
00:16:40,834 --> 00:16:42,210
I know, but...
302
00:16:42,961 --> 00:16:48,717
Part of it was me realizing
how quickly this year has gone by.
303
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,179
When I think that I only have a year left,
304
00:16:52,262 --> 00:16:55,724
I got a little envious of Taiki.
305
00:16:56,475 --> 00:16:58,769
I didn't say that to encourage him.
306
00:16:58,852 --> 00:17:01,730
I was just expressing my own insecurities.
307
00:17:01,813 --> 00:17:03,231
And I regret that.
308
00:17:04,900 --> 00:17:05,984
Chinatsu.
309
00:17:06,568 --> 00:17:08,320
You're such a nice girl.
310
00:17:09,362 --> 00:17:10,947
That's not...
311
00:17:11,031 --> 00:17:12,365
So pure!
312
00:17:13,241 --> 00:17:14,493
I'm back!
313
00:17:14,576 --> 00:17:16,495
Welcome home!
314
00:17:16,578 --> 00:17:18,371
Congrats.
315
00:17:18,455 --> 00:17:19,372
Thanks.
316
00:17:19,456 --> 00:17:21,500
You got a good doubles partner, huh?
317
00:17:21,583 --> 00:17:23,043
That's not all of it.
318
00:17:23,585 --> 00:17:24,503
Besides,
319
00:17:25,337 --> 00:17:27,172
I'll win my singles matches too!
320
00:17:27,255 --> 00:17:29,007
You don't have to yell.
321
00:17:31,551 --> 00:17:33,011
I'm going to put my stuff away.
322
00:17:33,095 --> 00:17:34,846
Such a busy boy.
323
00:17:35,472 --> 00:17:36,765
If she's feeling insecure,
324
00:17:37,808 --> 00:17:39,851
that's all the more reason I can't lose.
325
00:17:41,186 --> 00:17:45,357
Where does he get all that confidence?
326
00:17:46,358 --> 00:17:48,944
You honestly don't have to worry
about what you said.
327
00:17:49,027 --> 00:17:49,861
No.
328
00:17:51,113 --> 00:17:53,615
I could learn from his example.
329
00:18:01,373 --> 00:18:02,624
Good luck to you.
330
00:18:04,709 --> 00:18:05,919
Rock, paper, scissors!
331
00:18:06,002 --> 00:18:07,921
They're so fired up.
332
00:18:08,004 --> 00:18:10,132
They're only determining who serves first...
333
00:18:11,133 --> 00:18:14,636
Anyway, I heard you put some weird stakes
on this match.
334
00:18:14,719 --> 00:18:16,304
Don't worry.
335
00:18:16,388 --> 00:18:18,598
I won't tell him
if she doesn't want me to.
336
00:18:19,141 --> 00:18:22,018
Chinatsu Senpai
might be too nice to say no.
337
00:18:22,102 --> 00:18:25,230
Besides, I think Taiki's going to win.
338
00:18:25,313 --> 00:18:26,231
What?
339
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:28,900
Obviously, since I'm the one training him.
340
00:18:29,818 --> 00:18:32,904
In fact, if he loses,
I'll put him through hell.
341
00:18:32,988 --> 00:18:33,989
Shudder!
342
00:18:34,489 --> 00:18:35,448
GIVE YOUR ALL
343
00:18:35,532 --> 00:18:37,909
I'm glad I'm not his doubles partner.
344
00:18:38,535 --> 00:18:40,453
First game. Love-all.
345
00:18:40,537 --> 00:18:41,413
Play!
346
00:18:50,213 --> 00:18:54,134
Still, his smashes are powerful.
347
00:18:54,217 --> 00:18:56,678
He's good at putting his weight behind it.
348
00:18:56,761 --> 00:18:58,346
You can't just return them.
349
00:19:05,187 --> 00:19:06,479
There you are.
350
00:19:08,148 --> 00:19:09,232
What's up, ladies?
351
00:19:09,316 --> 00:19:10,942
What're you doing here?
352
00:19:11,026 --> 00:19:13,778
We had a practice game
against Kita High next door.
353
00:19:13,862 --> 00:19:16,114
We came to check out the tournament.
354
00:19:16,198 --> 00:19:17,741
Is anyone playing?
355
00:19:17,824 --> 00:19:19,117
My doubles partner.
356
00:19:20,410 --> 00:19:22,370
Oh, him? Let's cheer him on.
357
00:19:25,457 --> 00:19:27,792
Is it because we came?
358
00:19:27,876 --> 00:19:29,586
He can't get any attacks off.
359
00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:30,837
Are you one of those people
360
00:19:30,921 --> 00:19:34,382
who think figure skaters fail their jumps
when you watch?
361
00:19:35,050 --> 00:19:37,177
It's probably his strategy.
362
00:19:37,260 --> 00:19:38,386
His strategy?
363
00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:41,640
It takes time to get used to the speed
of someone's smashes.
364
00:19:41,723 --> 00:19:43,391
Taiki's slow at repositioning.
365
00:19:43,475 --> 00:19:47,395
So he's playing defensive at first
to tire out his opponent.
366
00:19:48,271 --> 00:19:51,650
If you look carefully,
his shots are keeping his opponent moving.
367
00:19:51,733 --> 00:19:54,736
The kid's gotten pretty smart.
368
00:19:54,819 --> 00:19:57,197
Match number 15...
369
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:58,490
I should get going.
370
00:19:58,573 --> 00:19:59,658
Good luck.
371
00:20:01,326 --> 00:20:02,702
Not going to watch up close?
372
00:20:03,745 --> 00:20:04,996
I'm fine here.
373
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,499
So, actually, I know your situation.
374
00:20:07,999 --> 00:20:09,584
Taiki told me.
375
00:20:10,126 --> 00:20:12,170
He said he trusts you.
376
00:20:16,174 --> 00:20:18,426
Okay, she is cute.
377
00:20:18,510 --> 00:20:21,888
There's something nerve-racking
about tournaments.
378
00:20:21,972 --> 00:20:24,975
Each shot feels heavier.
379
00:20:27,644 --> 00:20:28,895
Did you know?
380
00:20:28,979 --> 00:20:32,482
This game has your phone number
on the line.
381
00:20:34,025 --> 00:20:36,945
And just so you know,
Haryu Senpai's to blame.
382
00:20:37,028 --> 00:20:38,446
So take it up with him.
383
00:20:39,364 --> 00:20:41,700
It's just that Taiki
gets nothing for winning.
384
00:20:42,367 --> 00:20:43,660
So,
385
00:20:43,743 --> 00:20:47,205
would you take him to the aquarium
or something if he wins?
386
00:20:48,832 --> 00:20:52,502
We can't use the gym tomorrow anyways,
so there's no practice scheduled.
387
00:20:53,086 --> 00:20:53,962
Besides,
388
00:20:54,713 --> 00:20:57,966
you're part of the reason
he's so motivated.
389
00:20:58,049 --> 00:21:00,844
I doubt I have that much influence on him...
390
00:21:00,927 --> 00:21:01,970
Yeah, you do.
391
00:21:02,637 --> 00:21:06,725
She stayed behind in Japan
by herself to make the nationals!
392
00:21:06,808 --> 00:21:09,978
She practices first thing
in the morning! So will I!
393
00:21:10,061 --> 00:21:12,147
He's easily swayed.
394
00:21:13,565 --> 00:21:16,985
He's always been stubborn.
Once he makes up his mind, that's it.
395
00:21:17,861 --> 00:21:22,240
But even as a friend,
I can say he's been doing well lately.
396
00:21:23,033 --> 00:21:26,745
The old him wouldn't have been able
to pick up those shots.
397
00:21:28,330 --> 00:21:29,622
I'm sure that part of it
398
00:21:30,206 --> 00:21:33,043
is because he has someone close
with the same goals
399
00:21:33,126 --> 00:21:36,755
to keep him disciplined
and motivate him to put in the effort.
400
00:21:37,714 --> 00:21:39,966
So, if he's able to achieve
some good results,
401
00:21:40,050 --> 00:21:42,761
I think he deserves some kind of reward.
402
00:21:53,271 --> 00:21:54,356
Yes!
403
00:21:55,273 --> 00:21:57,275
He's fired up.
404
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:58,401
Okay.
405
00:22:00,195 --> 00:22:04,074
If Taiki wins, we'll go to the aquarium.
406
00:23:30,952 --> 00:23:35,957
