00:00:01.780 --> 00:00:04.180
I wish I'd never been born.

00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:06.720
I got skunked.

00:00:06.720 --> 00:00:09.680
The whole world's laughing at me.

00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:16.230
Peco, do me a favor and go home. You're making it hard to breathe in here.

00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.820
I can't see his weaknesses.

00:00:22.820 --> 00:00:24.320
Where are they?

00:00:28.290 --> 00:00:29.200
Hook loop!

00:00:29.200 --> 00:00:30.140
Inside out loop!

00:00:30.140 --> 00:00:31.050
Smash!

00:00:31.610 --> 00:00:32.470
Backhand!

00:00:32.470 --> 00:00:33.359
Inside out!

00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:34.270
Forehand!

00:00:35.930 --> 00:00:38.880
He's hitting predetermined shots to predetermined spots, right?

00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:41.510
He hasn't played against any of us even once.

00:00:41.510 --> 00:00:43.340
He must think we * or something.

00:00:43.340 --> 00:00:46.720
Anyway, is Kong's rubber that one you can only get in China?

00:00:46.720 --> 00:00:49.390
Probably not, since he doesn't represent his province anymore.

00:00:49.390 --> 00:00:51.420
Shut up! You're distracting me!

00:00:51.420 --> 00:00:55.940
Kong can't focus. Could you keep it down a bit?

00:00:55.940 --> 00:00:57.650
S-Sorry.

00:00:57.650 --> 00:00:59.320
What's wrong, Wenge?

00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.580
Is the chopper with glasses out today too?

00:01:02.340 --> 00:01:06.580
Do you guys know a chopper with glasses?

00:01:06.580 --> 00:01:08.090
Yeah.

00:01:08.090 --> 00:01:10.660
Gouda! Kong's calling for you.

00:01:16.780 --> 00:01:18.670
Let's keep going, Coach.

00:01:20.340 --> 00:01:21.840
Where is he?

00:01:28.500 --> 00:01:30.950
It 's safe and quiet here.

00:01:30.950 --> 00:01:32.600
I really feel at ease.

00:01:33.660 --> 00:01:34.600
It 's okay.

00:01:35.340 --> 00:01:37.100
I 'm fine here.

00:01:38.150 --> 00:01:39.940
This is where I want to be.

00:01:40.610 --> 00:01:43.860
I 'll hold my breath and be quiet, like a robot.

00:01:45.220 --> 00:01:46.160
So...

00:01:46.860 --> 00:01:48.489
So leave me alone!

00:02:26.090 --> 00:02:28.520
Look for him yourself.

00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.100
Peco's probably at the table tennis hall near Odakyuu Station.

00:02:32.100 --> 00:02:35.010
I'll draw you a map. You go.

00:02:35.010 --> 00:02:39.610
If you keep talkin' like that, I'm seriously gonna haze you!

00:02:39.610 --> 00:02:40.960
But logically speaking—

00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:42.270
Screw logic!

00:02:42.270 --> 00:02:45.240
Yeah, that's the iron-clad rule of sports clubs.

00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:46.130
Don't go.

00:02:46.130 --> 00:02:50.380
Mr. Tsukimoto, don't go to Tamura anymore.

00:02:50.380 --> 00:02:52.480
Don't play against Hoshino.

00:02:52.480 --> 00:02:54.170
I don't understand why I shouldn't.

00:02:54.170 --> 00:02:55.680
Yeah, me neither.

00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:59.279
Because you hold back when you play Hoshino.

00:02:59.279 --> 00:03:00.680
No, I don't.

00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:02.730
You don't even realize you're doing it, I see.

00:03:03.370 --> 00:03:08.120
Mr. Tsukimoto, starting tomorrow, you'll be training with me every morning at five.

00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.093
You lack a thirst to win,
and we're going to fix that

00:03:11.117 --> 00:03:14.090
weak point by the time
the Interhigh comes around.

00:03:14.190 --> 00:03:16.110
Let's get sport-spirited!

00:03:16.110 --> 00:03:18.230
That's my proposal.

00:03:19.610 --> 00:03:24.920
I'm looking forward to seeing you at five tomorrow morning, Mr. Tsukimoto.

00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:27.960
I'm not coming in at 5 AM.

00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:29.580
No problem.

00:03:29.580 --> 00:03:32.390
I'm the devoted-husband type.

00:03:32.390 --> 00:03:35.410
Devoted! Isn't that nice, Tsukimoto?

00:03:35.410 --> 00:03:37.650
May you live happily ever after.

00:04:05.300 --> 00:04:10.930
A new age has dawned, and still I can't make a decision

00:04:10.930 --> 00:04:16.450
My path is too straight for my taste, but I'll walk it

00:04:16.450 --> 00:04:18.260
I can't choose just yet

00:04:18.289 --> 00:04:19.309
I have to think about it

00:04:19.310 --> 00:04:21.130
I have no idea what I want to do

00:04:21.170 --> 00:04:22.170
I'm going crazy!

00:04:22.230 --> 00:04:27.730
Comparing yourself to others just makes you depressed

00:04:27.730 --> 00:04:30.790
I'm alone in this world

00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:34.830
I'm always alone here

00:04:35.380 --> 00:04:37.870
Still I'm gonna do it

00:04:38.870 --> 00:04:44.770
Maybe there's nothing that only I can do

00:04:44.770 --> 00:04:47.630
But there's no way that I

00:04:47.630 --> 00:04:50.380
But there's no way that I

00:04:50.380 --> 00:04:54.410
But there's no way that I won't try to leave my mark

00:04:55.640 --> 00:05:01.610
I just want to have my fun, whatever the times

00:05:10.330 --> 00:05:13.150
Man, soft drinks are getting weaker.

00:05:13.520 --> 00:05:16.273
I don't know if it's
some health fad or what,

00:05:16.297 --> 00:05:19.050
but I can't stand this
lightly carbonated stuff.

00:05:20.350 --> 00:05:23.160
Hey, Smile. Is practice over?

00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:24.080
Yeah.

00:05:24.790 --> 00:05:28.400
I bet they made you do laps outside because I played hooky.

00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:29.270
Yeah.

00:05:29.890 --> 00:05:34.600
*s to be you, getting harassed by the upperclassmen whenever I skip.

00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:35.530
Yeah.

00:05:35.700 --> 00:05:38.109
Well, that ends today.

00:05:38.109 --> 00:05:39.910
I'm giving up on table tennis.

00:05:39.910 --> 00:05:40.790
Okay.

00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.040
"Okay"? That's all?!

00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:46.840
If you don't want to play, you should quit.

00:05:46.840 --> 00:05:48.690
No reason to force yourself to keep going.

00:05:50.670 --> 00:05:53.700
Yeah. No reason to force myself.

00:05:58.810 --> 00:06:01.950
How long until the Interhigh prelims?

00:06:02.740 --> 00:06:03.700
Two months.

00:06:04.090 --> 00:06:06.900
Good grief. Doesn't even give me time to sulk.

00:06:06.900 --> 00:06:08.960
Old lady, I'm gonna use table four.

00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:10.460
You'll have to pay.

00:06:14.320 --> 00:06:17.293
Today's the fourth day I've done

00:06:17.317 --> 00:06:20.290
radioexercises in the
gym all by my lonesome.

00:06:20.790 --> 00:06:25.290
Why won't you come to morning practice, Mr. Tsukimoto?

00:06:25.290 --> 00:06:28.980
Why do I have to, Mr. Koizumi?

00:06:28.980 --> 00:06:34.730
A coach's job only has meaning when he has an athlete to guide.

00:06:34.730 --> 00:06:38.430
Do you understand that you're my athlete?

00:06:38.430 --> 00:06:39.640
No.

00:06:39.640 --> 00:06:44.480
Well, I want you to think of nothing but table tennis.

00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:46.230
What are you thinking about now?

00:06:46.230 --> 00:06:47.520
Question five.

00:06:47.520 --> 00:06:48.900
Nonsense!

00:06:48.900 --> 00:06:51.750
What good will high school English lessons ever do you?

00:06:52.100 --> 00:06:54.400
Be quiet, Teach! We can't concentrate!

00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:56.010
Sorry, sorry.

00:06:57.130 --> 00:06:58.610
I'm just passing the time.

00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.598
Table tennis and learning
English vocabulary

00:07:03.622 --> 00:07:05.980
are just ways to pass
the time until I die.

00:07:07.030 --> 00:07:10.950
Smile, are you a peanut man or a caramel man?

00:07:11.700 --> 00:07:12.620
Caramel.

00:07:12.620 --> 00:07:15.220
Right? It's just common sense!

00:07:15.220 --> 00:07:19.100
But the convenience store in my neighborhood only sells the peanut kind.

00:07:19.100 --> 00:07:21.110
That crunchy stuff is just wrong.

00:07:21.110 --> 00:07:22.250
Makes me sick.

00:07:22.660 --> 00:07:25.440
Mr. Tsukimoto, what are you eating?

00:07:25.440 --> 00:07:26.940
A hambargar.

00:07:26.940 --> 00:07:29.290
Not "bargar." Burger.

00:07:29.610 --> 00:07:31.020
Vurger?

00:07:31.020 --> 00:07:34.840
That's a lump of cholesterol, made of low-grade oil.

00:07:37.940 --> 00:07:41.330
Starting today, I'll make your lunch for you.

00:07:41.330 --> 00:07:45.500
I'll feed you healthy meals so you can build a table tennis body.

00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:46.620
I don't want—

00:07:46.620 --> 00:07:47.560
It's love!

00:07:47.870 --> 00:07:49.560
Yes! Love!

00:07:53.180 --> 00:07:54.560
You look like you're having fun.

00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:59.070
Spring has finally come for this old fool.

00:08:06.890 --> 00:08:09.080
Is that a love letter?

00:08:12.150 --> 00:08:13.480
That's some tough love.

00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:14.440
Throw it away.

00:08:16.670 --> 00:08:18.280
More variation!

00:08:18.280 --> 00:08:19.880
Stick with it!

00:08:19.880 --> 00:08:21.420
Move your feet!

00:08:21.950 --> 00:08:25.010
Is Koizumi always like this when he gets going?

00:08:25.010 --> 00:08:28.430
No. Maybe he's in heat? It is springtime.

00:08:28.430 --> 00:08:30.040
You're being repetitive!

00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:31.430
You need more variation!

00:08:31.430 --> 00:08:35.690
Smile really hates being yelled at, though.

00:08:35.690 --> 00:08:37.690
Don't let him ace you!

00:08:37.980 --> 00:08:39.190
Why aren't you attacking?!

00:08:39.190 --> 00:08:40.690
Don't just wait for mistakes!

00:08:41.129 --> 00:08:42.700
You should've gone for it there!

00:08:42.700 --> 00:08:44.220
How many times must I say it?!

00:08:44.220 --> 00:08:45.650
Do you even want to win?!

00:08:48.380 --> 00:08:50.950
Where are you going, Mr. Tsukimoto? Hey!

00:08:51.310 --> 00:08:52.250
He fled.

00:08:52.250 --> 00:08:53.180
Wait! Wait!

00:08:53.180 --> 00:08:54.490
Hey, mister!

00:08:54.580 --> 00:08:56.910
Well.

00:09:02.710 --> 00:09:05.090
You can see Mt. Fuji in all its glory today.

00:09:05.090 --> 00:09:06.660
Cheer up, Smile.

00:09:06.660 --> 00:09:07.970
The weather's great.

00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.980
Interacting with people just exhausts me lately.

00:09:18.150 --> 00:09:23.260
And table tennis is getting more complicated too.

00:09:27.490 --> 00:09:30.240
He may be a little hard on you,

00:09:30.670 --> 00:09:33.750
but I think Koizumi's coaching is right on the money.

00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:35.560
You're wrong, Peco.

00:09:36.330 --> 00:09:38.230
I'm only in it for a good time.

00:09:38.230 --> 00:09:40.000
Having fun is enough.

00:09:40.590 --> 00:09:42.838
I don't want to
sacrifice anything

00:09:42.862 --> 00:09:45.110
or drag anyone down just to win.

00:09:46.010 --> 00:09:47.620
Shall we?

00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:51.040
Hello!

00:09:51.040 --> 00:09:54.770
I'm a second-year from Kaiou Academy, Kazama Ryuuichi!

00:09:55.210 --> 00:09:59.210
I've come today to watch you practice!

00:10:00.180 --> 00:10:01.400
Kai-ou.

00:10:01.800 --> 00:10:03.250
What's Dragon doing here?

00:10:03.250 --> 00:10:05.090
He won the Interhigh last year.

00:10:05.090 --> 00:10:07.140
Didn't he place fourth in the World Juniors?

00:10:07.140 --> 00:10:08.430
What's he doing at Katase?

00:10:08.430 --> 00:10:09.530
Is he here scouting?

00:10:09.530 --> 00:10:10.480
Hoshino?

00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:11.620
Bet it's for me.

00:10:11.620 --> 00:10:12.660
Nobody asked you.

00:10:12.660 --> 00:10:15.830
But with a face like that, is he really a high school student?

00:10:15.830 --> 00:10:19.570
Why don't we step outside, Mr. Kazama?

00:10:19.570 --> 00:10:22.420
My students are all wimps.

00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.420
Tsukimoto's not here today.

00:10:26.800 --> 00:10:28.710
He's the one you're interested in, correct?

00:10:30.020 --> 00:10:33.030
I first saw him at my last middle school prefectural tournament.

00:10:33.560 --> 00:10:39.530
He lost, but his control, speed, playmaking, reflexes, concentration—

00:10:40.130 --> 00:10:42.940
they were all far above the abilities of a middle schooler.

00:10:43.340 --> 00:10:46.640
Honestly, I felt he was a threat.

00:10:46.640 --> 00:10:48.320
And yet he lost.

00:10:49.100 --> 00:10:50.320
Who was he playing?

00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.060
Sakuma Manabu.

00:10:52.060 --> 00:10:55.433
He's one of our first-years
now, but I heard he used

00:10:55.457 --> 00:10:58.830
to frequent the same table
tennis hall as Tsukimoto.

00:10:58.830 --> 00:11:00.710
I see.

00:11:01.160 --> 00:11:04.820
Human reaction time maxes out at 0.1 seconds.

00:11:04.820 --> 00:11:08.970
You reach the acme of table tennis by getting as close to that as possible.

00:11:09.450 --> 00:11:12.160
The chairman of Kaiou Academy once said that.

00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:13.050
Yes.

00:11:13.050 --> 00:11:16.470
It's fundamentally different from the "table tennis" on a hot springs vacation.

00:11:16.470 --> 00:11:19.130
Was that a dig against our school?

00:11:19.980 --> 00:11:24.480
You're saying we're a bad fit for Tsukimoto.

00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:28.240
To me, he looks like a swan among ducklings here.

00:11:30.850 --> 00:11:33.350
Question for you, Mr. Kazama.

00:11:33.350 --> 00:11:36.538
What are the odds of
Tsukimoto beating you in

00:11:36.562 --> 00:11:39.750
the Interhigh preliminaries
in two months' time?

00:11:42.280 --> 00:11:43.840
Nil.

00:11:45.160 --> 00:11:48.340
I want to be No. 1 on the whole planet, you feel me?

00:11:48.340 --> 00:11:51.280
I want to be the world champion!

00:11:51.280 --> 00:11:52.840
It's my dream!

00:11:53.290 --> 00:11:55.200
We're different that way, yeah?

00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:56.410
Yeah.

00:11:56.410 --> 00:11:58.720
In my case, it's pretty simple.

00:11:59.170 --> 00:12:02.920
I don't care about anyone else. I just don't find losing fun.

00:12:02.920 --> 00:12:05.030
Anyway, all's good as long as I win.

00:12:05.300 --> 00:12:06.840
That's pretty cool.

00:12:06.840 --> 00:12:08.230
I'm cheering you on, Peco.

00:12:08.620 --> 00:12:11.240
Then come to the club tomorrow.

00:12:11.530 --> 00:12:14.200
Practice is pointless without you there.

00:12:16.690 --> 00:12:19.210
I can feel another hot summer's coming.

00:12:27.380 --> 00:12:29.130
Smile's a Robot

00:12:30.980 --> 00:12:33.003
As I've asked before:
why do I have a

00:12:33.027 --> 00:12:35.050
different training regimen
from everyone else?

00:12:35.050 --> 00:12:38.310
Because you yourself are different from the others.

00:12:39.620 --> 00:12:40.790
Let's hurry, honey.

00:12:40.790 --> 00:12:43.060
We don't have time to dilly-dally.

00:12:43.060 --> 00:12:44.670
They're training with two tables.

00:12:44.670 --> 00:12:46.060
Looks tough.

00:12:47.380 --> 00:12:48.840
Too slow! Too slow! Too slow!

00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:50.030
Speed it up!

00:12:50.340 --> 00:12:51.590
No pauses!

00:12:51.590 --> 00:12:52.700
Keep moving!

00:12:53.880 --> 00:12:56.350
The old man's giving him tricky ones.

00:12:56.350 --> 00:12:58.580
I'm impressed Smile can return them.

00:13:02.110 --> 00:13:04.730
He runs a wicked fast marathon, you know.

00:13:04.730 --> 00:13:07.840
Where'd you get that lollipop during practice?

00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:09.090
Crossover!

00:13:09.090 --> 00:13:10.630
There! Go!

00:13:12.430 --> 00:13:13.420
The convenience store.

00:13:14.680 --> 00:13:15.630
Too slow!

00:13:18.050 --> 00:13:19.600
No lying down, Tsukimoto!

00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:20.720
There's no bed down there!

00:13:22.630 --> 00:13:24.710
What is this going to accomplish?

00:13:24.710 --> 00:13:25.890
You'll get stronger.

00:13:26.620 --> 00:13:27.760
That's stupid.

00:13:27.760 --> 00:13:28.890
Not at all.

00:13:29.690 --> 00:13:32.510
Are awards and trophies really so important?

00:13:32.510 --> 00:13:35.530
There are sights you can only see from the top.

00:13:36.940 --> 00:13:38.590
I'm not interested.

00:13:40.100 --> 00:13:43.980
You always withdraw into your shell like that.

00:13:44.830 --> 00:13:46.290
That's how I live.

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:48.230
It's no business of yours.

00:13:48.790 --> 00:13:52.070
Then I challenge you to a match, Mr. Tsukimoto.

00:13:52.070 --> 00:13:57.980
If you win, I promise never to interfere with you again.

00:13:58.080 --> 00:13:59.180
What if I lose?

00:13:59.500 --> 00:14:01.500
You'll be my dog.

00:14:01.500 --> 00:14:02.410
Woof, woof, woof.

00:14:04.110 --> 00:14:05.710
You'll obey my every command.

00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:10.670
The best of three will now begin!

00:14:10.670 --> 00:14:12.570
Mr. Koizumi to serve!

00:14:12.880 --> 00:14:14.290
I'll tame you.

00:14:15.190 --> 00:14:16.350
Ready!

00:14:16.350 --> 00:14:19.810
Does the old geezer really think he can beat Smile?

00:14:19.810 --> 00:14:20.800
He's got no chance.

00:14:20.800 --> 00:14:24.580
I hear he was famous back in the day, but he's no match for Tsukimoto.

00:14:25.380 --> 00:14:28.858
Let me show you
just how weak and frail

00:14:28.882 --> 00:14:32.360
your table tennis
is, Mr. Tsukimoto.

00:14:37.710 --> 00:14:38.570
Hey!

00:14:39.040 --> 00:14:41.040
That shouldn't've been a point.

00:14:41.040 --> 00:14:44.000
But you returned, didn't you? Didn't you?!

00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.180
One-love! One-love!

00:14:46.180 --> 00:14:48.630
That was pretty immature, Coach!

00:14:48.630 --> 00:14:49.810
He's good.

00:14:50.220 --> 00:14:52.320
Going to get mad, Mr. Tsukimoto?

00:14:52.750 --> 00:14:54.820
No, you 'll shrink from me.

00:14:54.820 --> 00:14:57.740
When an opponent challenges you aggressively...

00:14:57.780 --> 00:15:01.130
...you get scared.

00:15:02.450 --> 00:15:03.950
Yeah!

00:15:05.250 --> 00:15:07.150
Listen to the old-timer roar.

00:15:07.150 --> 00:15:10.460
He knows exactly what Smile hates.

00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:12.340
I can see it.

00:15:12.340 --> 00:15:15.340
I can read you like a book.

00:15:15.950 --> 00:15:18.608
You 'll return a
shot from this angle

00:15:18.632 --> 00:15:21.290
with a flat hit
straight down the line.

00:15:22.620 --> 00:15:23.550
There it is!

00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:29.750
And you give up at the drop of a hat.

00:15:29.750 --> 00:15:32.150
Accepting defeat with such good grace is naïve!

00:15:33.090 --> 00:15:36.450
You cannot fly across an ocean on wings so thin.

00:15:36.610 --> 00:15:38.070
Defeat and setbacks!

00:15:38.430 --> 00:15:39.990
Loss and grief!

00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:41.780
Amazing.

00:15:42.430 --> 00:15:43.930
Isolation and turmoil.

00:15:43.930 --> 00:15:45.690
Anguish and despair!

00:15:45.690 --> 00:15:48.410
This isn't how an old man with one foot in the grave...

00:15:48.410 --> 00:15:49.860
Nihilism and ruin!

00:15:49.860 --> 00:15:51.270
...is supposed to play.

00:15:51.270 --> 00:15:52.300
Five-love!

00:15:53.750 --> 00:15:57.000
I'll show you, Mr. Tsukimoto...

00:15:57.000 --> 00:15:58.200
Eight-love!

00:15:58.200 --> 00:15:59.770
...how naïve you are!

00:16:00.810 --> 00:16:03.460
And the strong heart you'll need if you're to win!

00:16:07.260 --> 00:16:09.770
It 's safe and quiet here.

00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:12.270
I really feel at ease.

00:16:14.620 --> 00:16:15.770
Someone 's coming!

00:16:17.270 --> 00:16:18.680
It 's okay.

00:16:18.680 --> 00:16:20.280
I 'm fine here.

00:16:21.470 --> 00:16:23.030
This is where I want to be.

00:16:23.640 --> 00:16:26.480
If I go out there, it 'll happen again...

00:16:29.870 --> 00:16:31.310
Eleven-four!

00:16:31.310 --> 00:16:33.360
Game to Mr. Koizumi.

00:16:34.410 --> 00:16:35.990
Enter the hero.

00:16:35.990 --> 00:16:37.650
Enter the hero.

00:16:37.650 --> 00:16:38.950
Enter the hero.

00:16:39.510 --> 00:16:42.010
He might actually beat him.

00:16:43.280 --> 00:16:46.010
You haven 't changed one bit, Smile.

00:16:46.010 --> 00:16:48.010
You 're as naïve as ever.

00:16:50.020 --> 00:16:52.080
A drive down the middle is your weak point.

00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:55.960
You can 't quickly decide whether to return it forehand or backhand.

00:16:55.960 --> 00:17:00.040
But you always return the ball long with a backhand chop.

00:17:00.040 --> 00:17:01.590
Utterly predictable.

00:17:01.590 --> 00:17:02.900
Don 't take me lightly!

00:17:02.900 --> 00:17:06.910
Does your benevolence run so deep, Mr. Tsukimoto?

00:17:07.650 --> 00:17:10.430
Are you prepared to become my dog?

00:17:10.430 --> 00:17:12.680
When I say "shake," you'll offer me your paw!

00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:14.960
You'll spin around three times and bark!

00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.380
I'll make you do it, Tsukimoto!

00:17:17.380 --> 00:17:20.779
I'll put a leash around your neck and take you for walks every day!

00:17:20.779 --> 00:17:22.370
You are incredible!

00:17:22.370 --> 00:17:25.430
A shining example of the young supporting our aging society!

00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:28.800
Why won 't anybody leave me alone?

00:17:29.410 --> 00:17:30.920
I don 't do anything to them.

00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:32.460
I don 't get angry.

00:17:32.460 --> 00:17:34.250
I don 't smile.

00:17:34.250 --> 00:17:35.840
I 'm just here.

00:17:35.840 --> 00:17:37.510
I 'm even breathing silently!

00:17:37.580 --> 00:17:41.090
I quietly do as I 'm told, like a robot.

00:17:42.300 --> 00:17:43.800
Enter the hero.

00:17:43.800 --> 00:17:45.350
Enter the hero.

00:17:45.350 --> 00:17:46.680
Enter the hero.

00:17:47.910 --> 00:17:48.770
Who's there?

00:18:27.070 --> 00:18:28.890
Hand on table!

00:18:28.890 --> 00:18:30.850
That costs you a point, Tsukimoto!

00:18:30.850 --> 00:18:32.020
Shut up.

00:18:32.020 --> 00:18:34.730
It's nothing to shout about.

00:18:34.730 --> 00:18:36.900
I'd like you to be quiet too, Sir.

00:18:37.730 --> 00:18:40.320
It's more than distracting; it's annoying.

00:18:40.320 --> 00:18:43.590
Hey, that seriously feels against the rules!

00:18:43.590 --> 00:18:44.520
Okay.

00:18:44.520 --> 00:18:46.190
So cool.

00:18:47.620 --> 00:18:49.120
Eleven-six!

00:18:49.120 --> 00:18:50.340
Game to Tsukimoto!

00:18:50.660 --> 00:18:53.250
Old Koizumi's finished.

00:18:53.250 --> 00:18:55.980
He put up a good fight, though.

00:18:55.980 --> 00:18:58.340
He's over seventy, right?

00:18:58.340 --> 00:18:59.980
A close game's gotta be rough on him.

00:19:02.300 --> 00:19:04.230
You 've surprised me, Smile.

00:19:05.430 --> 00:19:08.240
When did you learn to play like that?

00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.180
Not a very friendly kid.

00:19:10.180 --> 00:19:12.120
Can 't he even say "hello"?

00:19:13.100 --> 00:19:14.620
He never smiles.

00:19:15.370 --> 00:19:16.870
Table tennis?

00:19:16.870 --> 00:19:20.370
Gently, like you 're holding an egg.

00:19:30.380 --> 00:19:32.660
Would you please get up?

00:19:32.660 --> 00:19:36.710
It's extremely annoying how you pause after every point.

00:19:38.250 --> 00:19:40.130
There's no bed down there.

00:19:41.420 --> 00:19:42.630
I'm dizzy.

00:19:42.630 --> 00:19:44.510
Could I have five minutes?

00:19:44.510 --> 00:19:47.360
Ref! He wants to forfeit.

00:19:47.930 --> 00:19:50.060
I was just kidding! I take it back!

00:19:50.760 --> 00:19:52.490
Good, Mr. Tsukimoto!

00:19:52.490 --> 00:19:55.240
Excellent! Very good!

00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:57.260
Koizumi doesn't look so good.

00:19:57.260 --> 00:19:58.850
He's lost his marbles.

00:19:58.850 --> 00:20:00.290
Tsukimoto's heartless.

00:20:02.980 --> 00:20:05.790
You get it, don 't you, Mr. Tsukimoto?

00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:08.820
That you don 't chase the ball.

00:20:08.820 --> 00:20:11.080
The ball chases you.

00:20:11.080 --> 00:20:12.300
You will become stronger.

00:20:13.060 --> 00:20:15.180
You can feel it, can 't you, Mr. Tsukimoto?

00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:18.060
You feel the ball chase you!

00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:21.980
Now, show me what you can do!

00:20:24.660 --> 00:20:27.080
That 'll go past you! Prove you can return it!

00:20:29.990 --> 00:20:31.490
That 's it, Tsukimoto!

00:20:32.930 --> 00:20:35.450
The ball chases you!

00:20:38.080 --> 00:20:39.480
Can I be like you?

00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:41.870
Think I can be like you, Peco?

00:20:43.540 --> 00:20:46.040
I want to be like you, Peco.

00:20:46.040 --> 00:20:47.400
Like you.

00:20:50.430 --> 00:20:53.200
Hey, the coach fell over!

00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:55.200
His head went bang when it hit!

00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:56.150
Is he dead?

00:20:56.580 --> 00:20:58.710
First-years, go to the infirmary!

00:20:58.710 --> 00:20:59.620
Move it!

00:20:59.620 --> 00:21:01.790
But Koizumi's smiling.

00:21:01.790 --> 00:21:02.670
You're right.

00:21:02.670 --> 00:21:04.810
Did he land on a bad spot?

00:21:04.810 --> 00:21:07.260
I'm going ahead, Peco.

00:21:07.260 --> 00:21:08.120
What?

00:21:09.300 --> 00:21:10.340
I'm leaving.

00:21:10.340 --> 00:21:13.100
Say what?! Don't be a *, Tsukimoto!

00:21:13.100 --> 00:21:15.680
Coach just fainted!

00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:18.270
Are you ignoring me?! Hey!

00:21:18.270 --> 00:21:20.350
Wait! Tsukimoto!

00:21:24.540 --> 00:21:30.540
A red sun stares at me

00:21:31.550 --> 00:21:37.550
The world goes blurry when I yawn

00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:44.720
My wishes fluctuate like a metronome

00:21:45.860 --> 00:21:51.860
Everything tells me this is the end

00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.120
I do have some dreams, you know

00:21:56.120 --> 00:21:58.430
Sometimes we breathe

00:21:58.430 --> 00:22:01.290
and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone

00:22:01.290 --> 00:22:03.290
somewhere out of sight

00:22:03.290 --> 00:22:08.500
Then we are pure determination

00:22:08.500 --> 00:22:12.300
I don't understand this wonderland

00:22:12.300 --> 00:22:17.050
I won't get wet even if it rains

00:22:17.550 --> 00:22:21.100
This is a wonderland

00:22:35.450 --> 00:22:41.450
Once I've made it through this long tunnel

00:22:42.660 --> 00:22:48.660
I'm sure that someone will kiss me
