00:00:04.100 --> 00:00:08.820
Smile, you still followin' Peco wherever he goes?

00:00:08.820 --> 00:00:11.230
Say hi to the old lady for me.

00:00:11.230 --> 00:00:14.740
Demon's amazing. He's playing the first game for Kaiou.

00:00:17.360 --> 00:00:20.740
Could you ask him to come to our school?

00:00:23.620 --> 00:00:28.840
The only way to be sure you won't lose is to not fight.

00:00:30.510 --> 00:00:32.500
Where's Kazama?

00:01:02.620 --> 00:01:08.250
A new age has dawned, and still I can't make a decision

00:01:08.250 --> 00:01:13.770
My path is too straight for my taste, but I'll walk it

00:01:13.770 --> 00:01:15.580
I can't choose just yet

00:01:15.610 --> 00:01:16.630
I have to think about it

00:01:16.630 --> 00:01:18.350
I have no idea what I want to do

00:01:18.390 --> 00:01:19.990
I'm going crazy!

00:01:20.050 --> 00:01:24.950
Comparing yourself to others just makes you depressed

00:01:25.050 --> 00:01:28.110
I'm alone in this world

00:01:28.110 --> 00:01:32.150
I'm always alone here

00:01:32.700 --> 00:01:35.190
Still I'm gonna do it

00:01:36.190 --> 00:01:42.090
Maybe there's nothing that only I can do

00:01:42.090 --> 00:01:44.950
But there's no way that I

00:01:44.950 --> 00:01:47.700
But there's no way that I

00:01:47.700 --> 00:01:51.729
But there's no way that I won't try to leave my mark

00:01:52.960 --> 00:01:58.930
I just want to have my fun, whatever the times

00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.979
You sure, Wenge?

00:02:10.979 --> 00:02:13.440
You don't have to stay here alone.

00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:20.490
Well, I don't know how I can face them...

00:02:21.110 --> 00:02:24.620
Plus, I was hired to beef up that weak little club,

00:02:24.620 --> 00:02:26.910
even if that wasn't the real goal.

00:02:28.350 --> 00:02:32.070
Hello. Goodbye. Thank you.

00:02:32.930 --> 00:02:35.040
Heh heh. Pretty good?

00:02:36.880 --> 00:02:41.260
The only saving grace is that Kazama won worlds as well.

00:02:42.470 --> 00:02:44.800
If he'd lost the Interhigh,

00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.360
I would've found a witch to turn me into a frog.

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:52.320
I'll miss you, Wenge.

00:02:52.320 --> 00:02:53.770
Right back at ya.

00:02:57.480 --> 00:03:01.200
Kazama! Congratulations on your gold medal in singles at the Youth Olympics!

00:03:01.200 --> 00:03:02.410
Could you share your thoughts?

00:03:02.720 --> 00:03:05.740
My performance in the team and doubles events was less than stellar,

00:03:05.740 --> 00:03:08.430
but I'm satisfied with my victory in the singles.

00:03:05.950 --> 00:03:08.160

Table Tennis Youth Olympics Gold Medalist

00:03:13.100 --> 00:03:18.670
However, what I'm most worried about is my school, Kaiou.

00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:23.430
The overall strength of our team has dropped.

00:03:23.430 --> 00:03:27.680
For Kaiou Academy to be as formidable as it once was,

00:03:28.100 --> 00:03:32.740
we require players as good as Tsukimoto from Katase High School.

00:03:33.310 --> 00:03:34.630
Kazama!

00:03:35.590 --> 00:03:36.810
That's it?

00:03:39.870 --> 00:03:41.750
Is that the girl from the commercials?

00:03:41.750 --> 00:03:42.720
The ones for Poseidon?

00:03:41.829 --> 00:03:43.320
Now, back to you.

00:03:42.720 --> 00:03:44.787
That was an all-too-brief interview with Kazama Ryuuichi,

00:03:44.811 --> 00:03:47.729
who took singles gold in the Youth Olympics table tennis.

00:03:48.820 --> 00:03:49.829
Table Tennis Youth Olympics Gold Medalist

00:03:52.100 --> 00:03:55.340
For all your table tennis needs.

00:03:55.990 --> 00:03:57.600
Let's play table tennis!

00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:00.840
For all your table tennis needs.

00:03:58.850 --> 00:04:00.840
Poseidon

00:04:03.670 --> 00:04:06.700
Congrats! You're amazing, Ryuu!

00:04:06.700 --> 00:04:09.500
Auntie Emiko was overjoyed too.

00:04:10.230 --> 00:04:11.390
Have you called her?

00:04:12.890 --> 00:04:13.770
No.

00:04:13.770 --> 00:04:16.779
You should! She'd be really happy.

00:04:16.779 --> 00:04:19.480
I hear she always shows her customers newspaper clippings of you.

00:04:21.760 --> 00:04:22.770
So, home?

00:04:22.770 --> 00:04:25.470
No. I want to see the old man first.

00:04:25.470 --> 00:04:27.490
Really? That *s.

00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:31.180
Say, there's a good pancake house nearby...

00:04:33.490 --> 00:04:35.380
Sorry. I get it.

00:04:36.490 --> 00:04:39.200
Even though you're world champ, you've got it rough.

00:04:39.900 --> 00:04:42.570
It's like Grampa's at the center of the world!

00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:45.340
That's pricey.

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:47.480
It's dirt cheap.

00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:50.510
You'd pay more than double this at a resort beach!

00:04:50.510 --> 00:04:51.930
You sure we need these?

00:04:52.330 --> 00:04:55.490
We'd burn to a crisp in less than half an hour without a parasol.

00:04:55.490 --> 00:04:56.980
And chairs are mandatory!

00:04:58.650 --> 00:05:00.690
Jeez, I'm gonna be covered in sand!

00:05:00.690 --> 00:05:03.290
Table Tennis News We have a World Juniors Winner!

00:05:02.210 --> 00:05:05.220

we require players as good as Tsukimoto

00:05:02.210 --> 00:05:04.200
from Katase High School

00:05:03.320 --> 00:05:04.390
Rub lotion on me.

00:05:04.390 --> 00:05:05.290
Gimme a minute.

00:05:05.520 --> 00:05:07.120
What's up with that? It's hilarious.

00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:08.100
It's totally cracked.

00:05:08.110 --> 00:05:10.720
For Kaiou Academy

00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:13.300
from Katase High School

00:05:13.580 --> 00:05:17.290
Hey, isn't there a famous pancake house around here?

00:05:17.290 --> 00:05:19.250
Yo, we want to order.

00:05:19.250 --> 00:05:20.620
Yes, sir.

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:23.200
Order something for me.

00:05:24.260 --> 00:05:25.120
What?

00:05:27.330 --> 00:05:28.700
What would you like?

00:05:28.700 --> 00:05:30.090
I don't want that crap.

00:05:30.090 --> 00:05:31.010
What?

00:05:37.450 --> 00:05:40.520
I guess the beach isn't right for me, either.

00:05:41.090 --> 00:05:43.180
Maybe I'll try the mountains.

00:06:19.210 --> 00:06:20.620
Are you ready?

00:06:20.620 --> 00:06:21.690
We're about to close up.

00:06:23.370 --> 00:06:25.270
Good work, Ryuuichi.

00:06:25.270 --> 00:06:28.800
Next we'll spend some money on a commercial featuring you.

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:31.880
Still, you pulled quite the stunt!

00:06:31.880 --> 00:06:34.110
And on TV too.

00:06:34.110 --> 00:06:36.510
Will he come to us?

00:06:36.710 --> 00:06:37.960
No doubt.

00:06:37.960 --> 00:06:41.230
I'm sure he knows where he belongs.

00:06:41.230 --> 00:06:42.550
I'm counting on you.

00:06:42.550 --> 00:06:45.490
Kaiou must always win.

00:06:45.490 --> 00:06:47.960
This isn't good, Ryuuichi.

00:06:47.960 --> 00:06:49.370
You know it isn't.

00:06:49.370 --> 00:06:50.350
Yes, sir!

00:06:50.350 --> 00:06:51.490
I'm very sorry, sir!

00:06:51.840 --> 00:06:55.620
I can tell you're genuinely worried for Kaiou.

00:06:56.200 --> 00:06:59.620
But the guys who got crushed at the Interhigh haven't bounced back yet,

00:06:59.970 --> 00:07:03.730
and their captain only caring about another school's player is a slap in the face.

00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:07.530
Kaiou Academy sinks

00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:07.530
Defeated in the second round of the team event

00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:07.530
Defeated in the second round of the team event

00:07:03.730 --> 00:07:06.370
My apologies, sir!

00:07:06.430 --> 00:07:09.470
Yo. I hear Kazama got called into the Coach's office.

00:07:09.470 --> 00:07:10.970
Yes, sir!

00:07:11.390 --> 00:07:14.470
He ran his mouth at the airport on the afternoon news.

00:07:14.470 --> 00:07:15.440
Yes, sir.

00:07:15.440 --> 00:07:19.350
Apparently, the guy's like a robot. He doesn't even smile.

00:07:19.350 --> 00:07:21.430
His name's Tsukimoto, right?

00:07:21.430 --> 00:07:23.680
But we're talking about Kazama here.

00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:26.240
He didn't mention him by accident.

00:07:26.890 --> 00:07:30.370
He's planning to get that four-eyes with the parted hair on our team.

00:07:30.370 --> 00:07:31.900
Probably so.

Where Did I Go Wrong?

00:07:38.460 --> 00:07:40.170
Thanks. Good work.

00:08:20.710 --> 00:08:22.180
Your speed is dropping.

00:08:22.180 --> 00:08:23.710
Pick it up!

00:08:23.710 --> 00:08:24.779
Swing your arms.

00:08:24.779 --> 00:08:26.190
More! More!

00:08:26.190 --> 00:08:27.630
Tough it out!

00:08:27.630 --> 00:08:29.220
There!

00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:31.759
Okay, you're good.

00:08:39.260 --> 00:08:40.910
Keep walking.

00:08:41.520 --> 00:08:43.430
Hey, Captain Oota.

00:08:43.430 --> 00:08:44.880
You heading home?

00:08:44.880 --> 00:08:46.120
Yes, sir.

00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:49.400
We're calling it a day, but do you need help with anything?

00:08:49.400 --> 00:08:51.160
No, thanks.

00:08:51.160 --> 00:08:53.180
See you later, then!

00:08:53.180 --> 00:08:54.410
Goodbye.

00:08:55.470 --> 00:08:56.570
I don't like it.

00:08:56.570 --> 00:08:58.340
Oota, what're you up to today?

00:08:58.340 --> 00:08:59.970
Getting my license.

00:08:59.970 --> 00:09:02.970
Gotta be able to drive my family's light truck.

00:09:02.970 --> 00:09:05.220
A family business must be nice.

00:09:05.220 --> 00:09:07.800
We're college-bound with no prospects.

00:09:07.800 --> 00:09:08.720
Moron.

00:09:09.100 --> 00:09:12.860
You don't know how rough small-town appliance stores have it.

00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:19.180
Your bowl-headed friend didn't come today, either.

00:09:19.560 --> 00:09:20.650
Let's go inside.

00:09:20.650 --> 00:09:22.120
We'll catch a chill.

00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:24.900
Right.

00:09:25.640 --> 00:09:27.520
Next is multi-ball training.

00:09:27.520 --> 00:09:28.940
Okay.

00:09:28.940 --> 00:09:30.940
Use your feet.

00:09:30.940 --> 00:09:32.910
You missed a ball.

00:09:32.910 --> 00:09:34.820
Don't return with just your hands.

00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.830
You're slow! Too slow! Your feet are flopping all over the place!

00:09:55.670 --> 00:09:59.350
Personally, I like Akagi Dairy.

00:10:00.310 --> 00:10:03.180
I'm impressed by their liberal management style.

00:10:03.180 --> 00:10:05.540
Their BLACK commercials are pretty sharp too.

00:10:05.540 --> 00:10:08.270
The success of their cream products hasn't made them arrogant.

00:10:08.270 --> 00:10:11.890
They keep putting out new products.

00:10:11.890 --> 00:10:13.570
You look like burnt toast.

00:10:13.570 --> 00:10:15.240
I almost didn't recognize you.

00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:17.290
I thought you quit, Hoshino.

00:10:17.290 --> 00:10:19.150
I don't see Smile around.

00:10:19.150 --> 00:10:21.080
Have you put on weight?

00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:22.550
For real?!

00:10:22.550 --> 00:10:25.830
Tsukimoto's running laps outside with the old man.

00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:30.570
He's on a completely different training regimen from us.

00:10:30.570 --> 00:10:34.090
He comes to school at five in the morning and runs ten kilometers.

00:10:34.470 --> 00:10:37.220
He's doing three times the exercise we are.

00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:41.310
The old man arranges a stupid number of matches for him too.

00:10:42.210 --> 00:10:43.080
Why?

00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.200
Hello, everybody.

00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:46.810
Are you all here?

00:10:46.810 --> 00:10:47.730
Yo.

00:10:47.730 --> 00:10:49.230
Have you put on weight?

00:10:49.530 --> 00:10:52.650
Your new glasses just make it look that way.

00:10:52.650 --> 00:10:54.170
You've been eating too many sweets.

00:10:54.170 --> 00:10:56.040
That's my policy.

00:10:56.040 --> 00:10:57.150
The cigarettes too?

00:10:58.740 --> 00:11:01.740
He looks down on us.

00:11:02.490 --> 00:11:07.000
He plays so many matches because none of us are worth practicing with.

00:11:08.410 --> 00:11:12.830
Which means we play schools that're at his level.

00:11:12.830 --> 00:11:17.090
The prince rides the winning-streak highway alone.

00:11:18.010 --> 00:11:20.970
There's no "team" here anymore.

00:11:20.970 --> 00:11:24.980
He's the only member of the first string; everyone else is just a ball boy.

00:11:25.490 --> 00:11:27.980
What? Sakuma's not here?

00:11:28.270 --> 00:11:32.110
No, sir! He said he'd rest up in the dorms because he's coming down with a cold!

00:11:32.110 --> 00:11:33.510
A cold?

00:11:34.150 --> 00:11:35.110
Very well.

00:11:35.110 --> 00:11:37.240
Fine. You can go.

00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:38.110
Yes, sir!

00:11:39.730 --> 00:11:40.990
Three!

00:11:42.220 --> 00:11:43.340
Four!

00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:46.900
Look, I don't believe in Sakuma's "cold."

00:11:46.920 --> 00:11:49.120
One!
Two!

00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:50.920
He's the type who'd play with appendicitis.

00:11:50.930 --> 00:11:52.060
Three!

00:11:53.130 --> 00:11:54.320
Four!

00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:58.020
He worships you like a god.

00:11:57.030 --> 00:12:00.150
The posters in his dorm room ain't funny to me.

00:11:57.030 --> 00:12:00.150
Tsuburaya

00:11:57.030 --> 00:12:00.150
Tsuburaya

00:11:58.120 --> 00:11:59.820
One, two, three, four!

00:11:59.870 --> 00:12:03.260
Where would a guy like that go?

00:12:03.560 --> 00:12:07.770
Kaiou doesn't tolerate us playin' other schools' athletes without permission.

00:12:08.100 --> 00:12:12.080
Knowing that, where could Sakuma have gone?

00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:16.400
It's fine by me if you want that chopper from Katase.

00:12:16.400 --> 00:12:20.280
But it seems to me that if you go around callin' us losers in public,

00:12:20.280 --> 00:12:22.530
it might throw a spanner in the works.

00:12:23.400 --> 00:12:25.400
One, two, three, four!

00:12:26.220 --> 00:12:27.900
You hear me, Kazama?

00:12:32.810 --> 00:12:35.270
Kazama, break time is over.

00:12:38.100 --> 00:12:41.990
Concerned about Sakuma after all?

00:12:41.990 --> 00:12:42.920
No.

00:12:42.920 --> 00:12:44.970
Yeah, Sakuma's the last guy who'd—

00:12:44.970 --> 00:12:46.220
Sakuma will lose.

00:12:47.570 --> 00:12:52.730
Tsukimoto Makoto's play is on a different level from the rest of you.

00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:54.930
Sakuma can't beat him.

00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:58.740
I smell sweet olive.

00:12:59.050 --> 00:13:01.030
Excuse me, but we need to start!

00:13:01.030 --> 00:13:03.740
Yeah, yeah, we're comin'!

00:13:03.740 --> 00:13:05.780
Anyway, Sakuma will leave a hole in our team.

00:13:06.010 --> 00:13:06.950
What?

00:13:06.950 --> 00:13:10.620
Our most pressing need is finding someone to fill it.

00:13:10.620 --> 00:13:12.620
You hold it right there.

00:13:12.620 --> 00:13:17.860
How do you figure Sakuma'd feel if he heard that? Well?

00:13:17.860 --> 00:13:21.260
He's been with us through thick and thin!

00:13:21.260 --> 00:13:23.138
Here's what I'd like
to know: how is that

00:13:23.162 --> 00:13:27.040
compassion going to help
us regain our former glory?

00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:29.928
We can't even dominate
the Interhigh without

00:13:29.952 --> 00:13:32.090
players who can win on
the international stage.

00:13:33.460 --> 00:13:35.900
Nothing has changed. We're still in crisis.

00:13:36.920 --> 00:13:38.240
Winter is coming.

00:13:39.460 --> 00:13:40.900
Smells like trouble.

00:13:41.280 --> 00:13:43.160
You think it's funny, don't you?

00:13:43.160 --> 00:13:45.200
Is it about what Ryuu said on TV?

00:13:45.950 --> 00:13:47.010
Yeah.

00:13:47.790 --> 00:13:48.730
Thanks.

00:13:50.490 --> 00:13:53.910
There's a first-year on my team. One of a dying breed.

00:13:53.910 --> 00:13:55.960
He plays our first match.

00:13:57.040 --> 00:13:58.040
Is he good?

00:13:58.520 --> 00:14:00.883
He's the poster boy for
awkwardness. If there were

00:14:00.907 --> 00:14:03.570
contests in it, he'd be in
the running immediately.

00:14:03.570 --> 00:14:05.020
I didn't scout him.

00:14:05.020 --> 00:14:08.140
In fact, I was set against letting him on the team.

00:14:10.310 --> 00:14:13.640
I kept turning him down, telling him he'd only suffer.

00:14:13.640 --> 00:14:18.370
But he refused to listen. He said, "I came to Kaiou to become like Kazama."

00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:23.780
I caved, figuring I could make himmanager someday... But you know what?

00:14:23.780 --> 00:14:26.043
He turned out to be the
type who, if you tell him to

00:14:26.067 --> 00:14:28.330
drop and give you ten, will
do a hundred or a thousand.

00:14:28.630 --> 00:14:32.700
But table tennis is a sport where natural talent really matters.

00:14:32.700 --> 00:14:35.830
It's impossible for him to become like Ryuuichi.

00:14:36.750 --> 00:14:39.390
But your dad here likes him.

00:14:39.390 --> 00:14:42.050
He's just too adorable for me!

00:14:42.890 --> 00:14:44.990
It's the same for our team now.

00:14:44.990 --> 00:14:49.930
We're weaker than we were in our glory days, but I love those guys.

00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:56.690
I wish Ryuuichi felt the same way.

00:14:56.690 --> 00:15:00.690
It's not easy when things don't go your way.

00:15:02.030 --> 00:15:04.740
What will you do when you graduate from junior college?

00:15:05.640 --> 00:15:06.700
I'm thinking it over.

00:15:22.670 --> 00:15:25.430
Let me hear you, first-years!

00:15:25.430 --> 00:15:27.050
Yes, sir!

00:15:27.340 --> 00:15:28.330
Dear.

00:15:30.550 --> 00:15:32.510
Hey. What's wrong, mister?

00:15:32.510 --> 00:15:34.060
Why did you stop? Come on!

00:15:37.560 --> 00:15:38.930
Come on, Demon.

00:15:38.930 --> 00:15:41.910
Have your eyes gotten that bad?

00:15:41.910 --> 00:15:43.570
You got off at the wrong station.

00:15:43.570 --> 00:15:46.430
This isn't Kaiou Academy, you know.

00:15:46.430 --> 00:15:48.070
Put on some weight, Peco?

00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:50.540
Excuse me!

00:15:50.540 --> 00:15:52.830
Where might I find the coach?

00:15:52.830 --> 00:15:54.100
Here.

00:15:55.110 --> 00:15:56.090
Sir!

00:15:56.090 --> 00:15:58.870
I am Sakuma, first-year at Kaiou!

00:15:58.870 --> 00:16:03.210
I've come here today because I'd like to play Tsukimoto!

00:16:03.210 --> 00:16:04.410
You heard him.

00:16:04.410 --> 00:16:06.720
I don't mind playing, Demon.

00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:08.220
But you'll lose.

00:16:08.220 --> 00:16:10.720
Aren't you cool?

00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:13.100
Whatever. I don't care anymore.

00:16:13.400 --> 00:16:15.600
I don't mind you playing a match,

00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:17.781
but doesn't Kaiou forbid playing

00:16:17.805 --> 00:16:20.200
other schools
without permission?

00:16:20.520 --> 00:16:24.110
Yes. If we lose, we're kicked off the team immediately.

00:16:24.110 --> 00:16:25.440
Did you hear that, mister?

00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.370
They're like the Shinsengumi.

00:16:27.370 --> 00:16:30.370
So you're prepared to commit ritual suicide.

00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:32.870
I didn't even tell Hijikata I was coming.

00:16:32.870 --> 00:16:35.860
You don't have Kondou Isami's permission?

00:16:35.870 --> 00:16:37.750
Okay, Mr. Okita.

00:16:37.750 --> 00:16:40.870
We'll gift you some of our time.

00:16:40.870 --> 00:16:43.110
Wrap it up in fifteen minutes.

00:16:43.110 --> 00:16:45.610
I want to finish up the rest of our regimen.

00:16:45.610 --> 00:16:46.880
Got it.

00:16:46.880 --> 00:16:48.760
Bring it on.

00:16:51.020 --> 00:16:54.550
It's been two years and four months since I played you, Smile.

00:16:54.550 --> 00:16:55.630
Has it?

00:16:55.630 --> 00:16:56.529
Time!

00:16:56.529 --> 00:16:59.429
My record against you is 96 - 37.

00:16:59.429 --> 00:17:01.310
I don't remember any of that.

00:17:01.310 --> 00:17:02.239
Ready!

00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:06.390
Don't get ahead of yourself just because Kazama likes you a little bit.

00:17:06.390 --> 00:17:11.310
Your winning streak comes from playing easy games against rank amateurs.

00:17:11.310 --> 00:17:13.320
You're just a big fish in a small pond.

00:17:13.320 --> 00:17:14.380
Here we go.

00:17:26.310 --> 00:17:27.460
One-love!

00:17:27.460 --> 00:17:31.500
I can see you've improved a little, Smile.

00:17:32.560 --> 00:17:35.870
That guy's not bad. He returned Tsukimoto's third shot!

00:17:35.870 --> 00:17:37.970
That's Kaiou for you.

00:17:41.290 --> 00:17:42.310
Love-two!

00:17:42.990 --> 00:17:44.000
Love-three!

00:17:44.980 --> 00:17:45.930
Four-love!

00:17:48.340 --> 00:17:49.230
Eleven-one!

00:17:49.420 --> 00:17:51.030
Game goes to Tsukimoto!

00:17:51.310 --> 00:17:53.030
Smile, you bastard...

00:17:56.460 --> 00:17:58.970
Don't be fooled by simple spin like that.

00:17:59.690 --> 00:18:00.640
Moron.

00:18:00.890 --> 00:18:02.750
Hey, Demon.

00:18:02.750 --> 00:18:04.700
Don't hit Smile.

00:18:04.700 --> 00:18:08.290
But, Peco... this guy *s.

00:18:08.290 --> 00:18:10.300
He doesn't get any better.

00:18:11.300 --> 00:18:12.200
The right?

00:18:13.470 --> 00:18:14.450
Out!

00:18:17.360 --> 00:18:18.390
Two-eleven!

00:18:18.390 --> 00:18:19.970
Game goes to Tsukimoto.

00:18:20.970 --> 00:18:22.420
Damn it.

00:18:22.420 --> 00:18:24.400
I can 't predict his shots at all.

00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:25.940
I can 't throw him off, either.

00:18:25.940 --> 00:18:28.600
He returns my knuckle* with ease.

00:18:28.600 --> 00:18:30.880
Tsukimoto up two games to love!

00:18:35.310 --> 00:18:38.990
I feel like I 'm playing a college student or a pro.

00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:43.790
Where did I go wrong?

00:18:46.610 --> 00:18:48.670
What tripped me up?!

00:18:49.050 --> 00:18:51.450
That's some astigmatism you've got, Manabu.

00:18:51.450 --> 00:18:53.070
Where did I go wrong?

00:18:54.220 --> 00:18:57.050
Focus on distant objects when your eyes get tired.

00:18:57.050 --> 00:18:58.680
What tripped me up?!

00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:01.790
Unlike me, he's got good eyes.

00:19:01.790 --> 00:19:04.180
Look at that, Manabu.

00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.430
No, Manabu.

00:19:06.430 --> 00:19:09.500
That's a choo-choo, not a vroom-vroom.

00:19:09.500 --> 00:19:11.440
Where did I go wrong?

00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:15.200
Once I'm out of high school, I'm going to Europe.

00:19:15.800 --> 00:19:18.110
Sakuma's playing our first match?

00:19:18.110 --> 00:19:19.550
I have high hopes for him.

00:19:19.550 --> 00:19:21.520
What tripped me up?!

00:19:22.450 --> 00:19:23.450
Come on, Manabu.

00:19:26.120 --> 00:19:27.290
What...

00:19:28.820 --> 00:19:29.710
can you see?

00:19:31.070 --> 00:19:32.340
Straight? No!

00:19:35.930 --> 00:19:37.510
Five-love!

00:19:37.510 --> 00:19:40.010
Damn it!

00:19:40.760 --> 00:19:43.770
Why you? Why?!

00:19:45.370 --> 00:19:46.800
I worked hard!

00:19:46.800 --> 00:19:50.270
Ten! No, a hundred! A thousand times harder than you!

00:19:50.270 --> 00:19:52.310
All so that Kazama would acknowledge my skill!

00:19:52.310 --> 00:19:54.130
All so I could beat Peco!

00:19:54.130 --> 00:19:57.630
From dawn until dusk, my only thoughts were of table tennis!

00:19:57.630 --> 00:20:00.190
I've given everything I had to table tennis!

00:20:00.190 --> 00:20:01.110
So why—

00:20:01.560 --> 00:20:04.660
Because you haven't got a talent for table tennis, Demon.

00:20:10.660 --> 00:20:13.090
That's all there is to it.

00:20:13.090 --> 00:20:15.300
It's nothing to shout about.

00:20:16.550 --> 00:20:18.150
Bullshit.

00:20:18.150 --> 00:20:19.930
That can't be...

00:20:19.930 --> 00:20:22.980
If you're not going to keep playing, leave.

00:20:22.980 --> 00:20:24.680
I don't have time for this.

00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:27.670
It can't be. That's not possible...

00:20:33.300 --> 00:20:36.810
So, there are different theories about how Bruce Lee died—

00:20:36.810 --> 00:20:38.940
That hurt, brat! Where are you looki—

00:20:39.910 --> 00:20:40.820
Shut up!

00:20:40.820 --> 00:20:43.120
Kaiou Academy Table Tennis Team Member Sakuma Manabu

00:20:43.120 --> 00:20:46.580
Where do I have to look for you to praise me?!

00:20:46.580 --> 00:20:49.080
Suspended from school for two weeks for causing bodily harm and...

00:20:49.080 --> 00:20:51.110
Answer me! Come on!

00:20:51.110 --> 00:20:53.080
Where should I look when I'm walking?!

00:20:53.080 --> 00:20:54.830
removed from the table tennis team

00:21:03.830 --> 00:21:05.450
Sorry, partner.

00:21:06.370 --> 00:21:08.100
Rest in peace, yeah?

00:21:15.520 --> 00:21:21.520
A red sun stares at me

00:21:22.530 --> 00:21:28.530
The world goes blurry when I yawn

00:21:29.700 --> 00:21:35.700
My wishes fluctuate like a metronome

00:21:36.840 --> 00:21:42.840
Everything tells me this is the end

00:21:44.220 --> 00:21:47.100
I do have some dreams, you know

00:21:47.100 --> 00:21:49.810
Sometimes we breathe

00:21:49.810 --> 00:21:52.670
and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone

00:21:52.670 --> 00:21:54.270
somewhere out of sight

00:21:54.270 --> 00:21:59.480
Then we are pure determination

00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:03.280
I don't understand this wonderland

00:22:03.280 --> 00:22:08.030
I won't get wet even if it rains

00:22:08.530 --> 00:22:12.080
This is a wonderland
