WEBVTT

00:12.050 --> 00:15.880
Now we can start playing
water polo together!

00:19.220 --> 00:20.470
Uh...

00:22.020 --> 00:23.430
Yes!

00:31.650 --> 00:34.150
"We ♥ Water Polo"

00:42.620 --> 00:45.290
You sure we can't convince you?

00:45.290 --> 00:47.880
You promised not to bug me.

00:50.250 --> 00:55.050
You don't want to swim now
'cuz you beat your brother?

00:57.260 --> 00:58.970
Uh, it's just--

00:58.970 --> 01:05.890
I heard from a guy on your swim team
that you joined to beat your brother.

01:05.890 --> 01:07.940
Unbelievable.

01:07.940 --> 01:10.520
You beat him and burned out?

01:10.520 --> 01:12.730
I never beat him.

01:16.030 --> 01:22.950
Though he's someone I respect, I joined
the swim team to surpass my brother.

01:22.950 --> 01:26.710
No matter the sport,
he was always better than me.

01:28.870 --> 01:33.380
But only in swimming did I come close.

01:33.380 --> 01:35.380
"OM Swimming School"

01:37.470 --> 01:41.720
When I thought I was close to beating him,

01:41.720 --> 01:45.350
he went to junior high
and joined water polo.

01:47.810 --> 01:51.900
I kept swimming,
thinking he'd return to it...

01:51.900 --> 01:54.400
...but in the end, he didn't.

01:54.400 --> 01:56.400
"OM Swimming School"

01:56.900 --> 02:03.700
Though I surpassed his grade school
record, it hadn't felt like I won.

02:03.700 --> 02:08.960
I wanted to beat him
in person, but I couldn't.

02:08.960 --> 02:13.250
So, regretfully, I quit swimming club.

02:16.050 --> 02:18.380
The end.

02:18.380 --> 02:19.880
Amihama!

02:22.890 --> 02:26.770
But you don't hate swimming, right?

02:26.770 --> 02:29.100
That's none of your business.

02:36.150 --> 02:38.650
Ooh! Swimsuits!

02:38.650 --> 02:41.410
--It's been a while.
--Yo.

02:41.410 --> 02:43.240
Huh? You're...

02:43.240 --> 02:45.080
Senpai!

02:45.080 --> 02:47.330
Hey! Thanks for the message!

02:47.330 --> 02:48.580
Of course!

02:48.580 --> 02:53.170
We heard from Eitaro that you picked up
water polo, so we came to--

02:53.170 --> 02:57.380
Don't just come waltzing in! Who are you?

02:57.380 --> 03:00.550
Oh. Sorry, you're right. We're--

03:00.550 --> 03:06.100
No worries! We're honored to
get visitors from Shogakukan!

03:06.100 --> 03:08.310
Shogakukan?

03:08.310 --> 03:14.520
They're Minato's old teammates
and last year's Interhigh champs!

03:14.520 --> 03:17.320
So, they're our rivals?

03:17.320 --> 03:20.990
That's enough outta you!
Go take a bath!

03:20.990 --> 03:23.240
You're being pathetic!

03:23.240 --> 03:26.200
Uh... Um...

03:26.200 --> 03:30.040
We just wanted to see
if you were really back.

03:30.040 --> 03:34.330
It's good to see him in
his suit again. Right?

03:34.330 --> 03:35.790
Mmm.

03:35.790 --> 03:37.380
Yeah.

03:37.380 --> 03:39.670
Senpai...

03:39.670 --> 03:43.590
If you're playing again,
do you remember us now?

03:43.590 --> 03:47.390
That remains the same as before.

03:48.430 --> 03:50.470
Remains?

03:50.470 --> 03:52.640
Isn't that a rule name?

03:52.640 --> 03:56.480
That's the old term. It's "offsides" now.

03:56.480 --> 03:58.070
Really?

03:58.070 --> 04:02.070
Anyway, I only remember through 6th grade.

04:02.070 --> 04:05.990
It's like I'm stuck in the past.

04:05.990 --> 04:13.540
If my memory doesn't come back,
maybe I'll remain like this forever.

04:13.540 --> 04:15.370
Not "remain."

04:18.090 --> 04:21.260
Re-Main.

04:21.260 --> 04:22.050
Huh?

04:22.050 --> 04:25.590
Be main again! Re-Main!

04:25.590 --> 04:29.470
You were always our main man!

04:29.470 --> 04:33.850
I'll wait for you to be the player
I know you can be!

04:35.270 --> 04:37.060
Thanks.

04:38.730 --> 04:42.690
I won't stop you from being cheesy,
but quit blushing.

04:42.690 --> 04:44.280
Shuddap.

04:44.280 --> 04:46.240
We can't play, though.

04:46.240 --> 04:47.320
Huh?

04:47.320 --> 04:53.660
We don't have seven people. We had
someone in mind, but he didn't join.

04:54.620 --> 04:57.040
So we can't...

04:57.040 --> 04:58.880
Hold on.

04:58.880 --> 05:02.460
If you mean me, I'm still here.

05:02.460 --> 05:03.670
Huh?

05:03.670 --> 05:05.380
Didn't you leave?

05:05.380 --> 05:08.390
Actually, I was right there.

05:10.140 --> 05:15.430
After overhearing that, I changed
my mind--I'll join water polo.

05:15.430 --> 05:17.390
Huh?

05:17.390 --> 05:19.310
For real?!

05:19.310 --> 05:21.150
Thanks!

05:21.150 --> 05:24.110
Well, that's good news, I guess.

05:24.110 --> 05:25.990
Yeah.

05:25.990 --> 05:28.910
You should be thanking them.

05:28.910 --> 05:33.330
I've been inspired to challenge
my brother again.

05:33.330 --> 05:36.580
Long time no see, Brother.

05:36.580 --> 05:37.500
Yeah.

05:37.500 --> 05:38.710
--Huh?
--Huh?

05:38.710 --> 05:40.670
Brother?!

05:43.000 --> 05:46.130
What?!

07:16.470 --> 07:17.180
One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight...!

07:17.180 --> 07:21.640
"Episode 4: This Ain't Looking Good..."

07:17.180 --> 07:21.640
One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight...!

07:21.640 --> 07:25.150
Two, two, three, four, five...!

07:25.150 --> 07:30.110
None of us saw that one coming, but...

07:32.110 --> 07:34.160
Say, why did you--?

07:34.160 --> 07:38.290
If my brother so eagerly
awaits your return,

07:38.290 --> 07:41.040
I might actually beat him with you.

07:41.040 --> 07:43.710
It made me want to play together.

07:45.000 --> 07:47.540
Talk about pressure...

07:47.540 --> 07:52.300
But the champs of Japan
were saying that about me...

07:52.300 --> 07:54.970
I'm a prodigy! I've got this!

07:54.970 --> 07:57.970
"Wishing for 7 members"

08:02.310 --> 08:05.230
Now, the fun begins.

08:05.230 --> 08:10.230
In water polo, you shoot
a ball at a floating goal.

08:10.230 --> 08:14.490
Unlike basketball,
all shots only get one point.

08:14.490 --> 08:20.290
The fights for the ball are so fierce,
some call it "water wrestling."

08:20.290 --> 08:23.210
These hats protect your ears.

08:23.210 --> 08:27.630
Your eardrums might rupture
without 'em, so be careful.

08:27.630 --> 08:33.470
Since the pool is deep, you've gotta do
an eggbeater kick to stay afloat.

08:33.470 --> 08:40.350
Make a figure eight with your legs,
kicking clockwise and counterclockwise.

08:40.350 --> 08:44.060
While paddling your arms
in and out, in and out.

08:44.060 --> 08:49.860
If you can't do this in your sleep,
keep practicing till you can.

09:07.830 --> 09:09.590
Five seconds!

09:23.770 --> 09:26.100
N-Not good!

09:26.100 --> 09:29.980
I'm a prodigy! I'm a--!

09:34.820 --> 09:36.950
Our neighbors...

09:36.950 --> 09:39.030
They're playing again.

09:39.030 --> 09:42.580
Either way, they're just
a bunch of scrubs.

09:42.580 --> 09:44.580
That'll be fun.

09:46.830 --> 09:49.290
Uh, Captain?

09:51.040 --> 09:53.300
Do me a favor.

09:55.090 --> 09:59.890
Well, that's it for practice! Good work!

09:59.890 --> 10:02.050
--Yeah...
--Good work...

10:16.490 --> 10:19.530
I feel like marmalade.

10:20.570 --> 10:23.620
My muscles turned into jam.

10:25.620 --> 10:27.200
Yeah.

10:31.250 --> 10:33.090
I'm beat.

10:34.340 --> 10:40.630
I see. If you're joining, we'll have
to watch out for you guys.

10:53.610 --> 10:55.070
Make sure to chew!

10:55.070 --> 10:56.400
Mmm.

11:02.740 --> 11:04.200
Delish!

11:13.330 --> 11:17.960
"Get 1st Win"

11:43.530 --> 11:45.120
It's only 2nd period.

11:45.120 --> 11:47.830
I'm always hungry lately.

11:56.880 --> 11:58.130
Okay, next!

11:58.130 --> 11:59.250
Right!

12:04.840 --> 12:06.220
Here goes!

12:11.890 --> 12:13.390
That was close!

12:17.310 --> 12:22.240
Wish I could score.
I just don't have the feel for it.

12:22.240 --> 12:24.990
You've got some serious talent!

12:24.990 --> 12:27.280
Talent... Really?

12:27.280 --> 12:30.990
Yeah! Your shots are like bullets!

12:30.990 --> 12:34.370
Well, I've got a strong arm from baseball.

12:34.370 --> 12:37.460
What club were you two in in junior high?

12:37.460 --> 12:38.540
Huh?

12:38.540 --> 12:43.050
Minato and Ei were in water polo
and Amiami swam.

12:43.050 --> 12:43.920
Amiami?

12:43.920 --> 12:44.970
Well?

12:44.970 --> 12:46.930
I did calligraphy.

12:46.930 --> 12:48.100
Yeah?

12:48.100 --> 12:50.060
You can write pretty?

12:50.060 --> 12:50.810
Yeah.

12:50.810 --> 12:52.980
That's cool!

12:52.980 --> 12:57.100
I always went home
and made sweets instead.

12:57.100 --> 12:58.400
Sweets?

12:58.400 --> 13:01.440
My dad's a pâtissier.

13:01.440 --> 13:06.910
I hope to be one, too, but he
wants me to finish school first.

13:06.910 --> 13:08.070
--Oh?
--Yeah?

13:08.070 --> 13:11.490
So, the pâtissier quote you said...?

13:11.490 --> 13:13.500
Yeah, my father's.

13:13.500 --> 13:15.210
I see!

13:15.210 --> 13:17.210
What about you, Captain?

13:17.210 --> 13:19.880
Huh? Uh, same as him.

13:19.880 --> 13:20.750
You made sweets?

13:20.750 --> 13:22.800
Not that!

13:22.800 --> 13:25.720
I went home, too.

13:25.720 --> 13:26.970
Surprising.

13:26.970 --> 13:32.510
So what drove you to restart
the water polo club?

13:32.510 --> 13:35.680
The power of love, I guess.

13:35.680 --> 13:37.020
Huh?

13:37.020 --> 13:39.520
That deserves another.

13:39.520 --> 13:40.730
Huh?!

13:40.730 --> 13:43.400
Even Amiami chimed in.

13:43.400 --> 13:44.360
Amiami...

13:44.360 --> 13:46.900
C'mon, don't make fun!

13:46.900 --> 13:51.240
Does a girl you like play
water polo or something?

13:51.240 --> 13:52.530
Or something!

13:52.530 --> 13:53.370
The hell--?!

13:53.370 --> 13:55.410
Who really cares?!

13:55.410 --> 13:56.750
This guy...

13:56.750 --> 13:59.120
What a sad bunch.

13:59.120 --> 14:03.630
Don't choose a club 'cuz they're big
or not. Join 'cuz you want to.

14:03.630 --> 14:09.130
My first impression of someone
has never been more wrong.

14:09.130 --> 14:13.890
Anyway, I wanna make sure
we're strong as hell!

14:13.890 --> 14:19.140
Therefore... this Saturday,
I set up a practice match!

14:19.140 --> 14:20.060
--Huh?!
--What?!

14:20.060 --> 14:26.110
Prefecturals are coming up! Learning
from a real match is more our style!

14:26.110 --> 14:28.110
A match...

14:28.110 --> 14:29.610
Against who?

14:29.610 --> 14:31.780
You'll have to wait and see.

14:31.780 --> 14:32.700
--Huh?!
--What?!

14:32.700 --> 14:34.830
Isn't that more exciting?!

14:34.830 --> 14:38.250
Is it... Shogakukan?!

14:38.250 --> 14:40.330
Against my brother?!

14:40.330 --> 14:42.250
You'll see!

14:44.710 --> 14:48.050
Whoa! I'm pumped up!

14:48.050 --> 14:51.550
A match... It's a first for me.

14:51.550 --> 14:53.260
Me, too.

14:55.010 --> 14:58.140
All right! Lez do this!

15:01.400 --> 15:03.560
Uh, I used to talk like that.

15:03.560 --> 15:06.690
I like it! C'mon, all together!

15:06.690 --> 15:07.110
"Get 1st Win"

15:07.110 --> 15:09.950
"Get 1st Win"

15:07.110 --> 15:09.950
Lez do this!

15:09.950 --> 15:10.450
"Kurashiki Community Pool"

15:10.450 --> 15:13.450
"Kurashiki Community Pool"
"Day of the Match"

15:13.700 --> 15:20.160
Right here--left wing is Amihama.
Use your speed to frazzle the enemy.

15:20.160 --> 15:25.960
Ejiri is left flat. He'll use his arm
to take open shots.

15:25.960 --> 15:32.090
Babayaro and his long limbs will play
floater back, focusing on defense.

15:32.090 --> 15:36.930
I'll play right flat and
pass the ball around.

15:36.930 --> 15:41.640
Right wing is Ushimado.
Don't let the enemy through.

15:41.640 --> 15:46.020
Lastly, Minato will be our floater.

15:46.020 --> 15:50.360
As the core of the offense,
floaters score points.

15:50.360 --> 15:53.530
So get the ball to Minato-senpai!

15:53.530 --> 15:55.120
Everyone on board?

15:55.120 --> 15:56.240
--Yeah
--Yes.

15:56.240 --> 15:57.950
As long as we win.

15:57.950 --> 16:00.500
Agreed.

16:00.500 --> 16:05.330
This match might revive
the player you used to be!

16:05.330 --> 16:06.790
I wonder.

16:06.790 --> 16:11.220
Dude, anyone else dig these chocolates?

16:11.220 --> 16:12.510
Mmm!

16:12.510 --> 16:14.380
Thank goodness!

16:14.380 --> 16:15.680
You made 'em?

16:15.680 --> 16:22.270
Yeah. I read that chocolate is good
for energy right before a match.

16:22.270 --> 16:24.650
It's true! I feel charged up!

16:24.650 --> 16:26.150
Really?

16:27.480 --> 16:32.440
Let's make it a tradition to have
Babi's sweets before a match!

16:32.440 --> 16:35.410
--Yeah!
--Oh, look, they're eating!

16:35.410 --> 16:39.240
Let's hope you don't barf
during the match.

16:39.240 --> 16:40.620
Who are you?

16:40.620 --> 16:43.790
Hmm? Holy bangs!

16:43.790 --> 16:47.380
These are our opponents from Rikka Gakuen!

16:47.380 --> 16:49.840
--Eh?
--Huh?

16:49.840 --> 16:51.880
Not Shogakukan?

16:51.880 --> 16:56.590
You think you can take on Shogaku?
You'd get slaughtered.

16:56.590 --> 16:57.720
Eh?!

16:57.720 --> 17:00.100
Stop, Toyama.

17:00.100 --> 17:03.060
I'm the captain, Fukui. Hello, again.

17:03.060 --> 17:04.560
Hello.

17:04.560 --> 17:08.020
Our good neighbors suggested
a practice match.

17:08.020 --> 17:10.230
Rikka Gakuen...

17:10.230 --> 17:11.070
Yes.

17:11.070 --> 17:14.070
The one with junior high water polo?

17:14.070 --> 17:17.700
Correct. It's a combined campus.

17:17.700 --> 17:20.410
With an incredibly weak team.

17:22.740 --> 17:26.460
I didn't play water polo
because there were

17:26.460 --> 17:30.090
only two schools in
the prefecture with it.

17:30.090 --> 17:34.130
The one he didn't attend
had an awful team.

17:34.130 --> 17:38.800
Your team was so bad,
I had to give up trying to beat him.

17:38.800 --> 17:40.550
The hell--?!

17:40.550 --> 17:44.600
It's true. Their high school
boys' team has never won.

17:44.600 --> 17:45.560
Eh?

17:45.560 --> 17:46.770
Oh, wow.

17:46.770 --> 17:50.690
Don't underestimate us!
We're not as weak as you think!

17:50.690 --> 17:54.110
We're Rikka Gakuen's best--
the "Hokuriku Three"!

17:54.110 --> 17:55.150
Eh?

17:55.150 --> 17:56.820
"Hokuriku Three"?

17:56.820 --> 17:57.950
Don't, Toyama.

17:57.950 --> 18:01.450
Doesn't the trash talk
piss you off, Ishikawa?

18:01.450 --> 18:06.040
Oh! 'Cuz you're Toyama,
Ishikawa, and Fukui?

18:06.040 --> 18:07.920
--Ah!
--Oh!

18:09.080 --> 18:10.330
What's so funny?!

18:10.330 --> 18:12.170
Sorry!

18:12.170 --> 18:15.090
I said not to call us that!

18:15.090 --> 18:18.260
Who cares about that?!

18:18.260 --> 18:21.760
Where's the rest of your team?

18:21.760 --> 18:24.560
Everyone suddenly fell sick.

18:24.560 --> 18:25.850
Eh?

18:25.850 --> 18:28.230
So... today's match...

18:28.230 --> 18:30.020
Excuse us!

18:30.020 --> 18:32.560
Phew! We made it in time!

18:32.560 --> 18:33.770
Welcome.

18:33.770 --> 18:36.530
It's been a while, Aki! Is your mom well?

18:36.530 --> 18:38.200
--Of course.
--Nice!

18:38.200 --> 18:39.360
Thanks for coming.

18:39.360 --> 18:43.450
--Your four day notice didn't give
us much time to prepare!

18:43.450 --> 18:45.330
--Four days?!
--Your four day notice didn't give
us much time to prepare!

18:45.330 --> 18:51.080
Ah... The Mizushima Junior Team
will be playing in our place.

18:51.080 --> 18:53.960
Good luck today!

18:53.960 --> 18:55.380
Good luck.

18:55.380 --> 18:59.220
Good... luck.

18:59.220 --> 19:02.680
Did you plan for this from the start?

19:02.680 --> 19:04.510
Of course not.

19:07.140 --> 19:09.140
"Yamanami High School"
"Mizushima Junior Team"

19:31.830 --> 19:34.330
Why aren't you playing?

19:34.330 --> 19:37.380
We were going to when you suggested it,

19:37.380 --> 19:41.970
but our first victory may ride
on not showing our hand.

19:43.680 --> 19:47.850
Never thought you'd care
about Yamanami, Chinu.

19:50.930 --> 19:55.400
I'm just curious to see
Minato Kiyomizu play.

19:55.400 --> 20:02.400
I can't wait to see who's the weaker
team between them and us.

20:02.400 --> 20:04.780
You don't look excited.

20:04.780 --> 20:10.870
Anyway, it doesn't seem like Kiyomizu
remembers playing against us.

20:17.460 --> 20:21.590
Grade schoolers sure are small.

20:21.590 --> 20:27.760
Still, this is a new start for me.
I'm not gonna hold back!

20:27.760 --> 20:33.850
Both teams rush to get the ball at the
start, so the fastest swimmer gets it.

20:33.850 --> 20:38.650
We have Amihama,
so it'll be ours for sure.

20:38.650 --> 20:41.110
It's all you, Amiami!

20:51.580 --> 20:53.500
It's ours! Good!

20:59.840 --> 21:02.090
I'm in position!

21:03.170 --> 21:06.050
Nice! And now the shot!

21:11.680 --> 21:13.350
Ours!

21:16.980 --> 21:18.480
Free shot!

21:38.290 --> 21:40.340
Shit!

21:40.340 --> 21:42.340
Well, well.

21:44.170 --> 21:47.260
--Nice shot!
--Good one!
--Keep it up!

21:52.510 --> 21:54.980
This ain't looking good.
