1. It's been about a month
since Chinatsu Senpai
Copy !req
2. started living with us.
Copy !req
3. Good morning.
Copy !req
4. My eyes have gotten used
to her dazzling aura.
Copy !req
5. I washed your gym uniform,
so don't forget to take it.
Copy !req
6. I used to hit the snooze button
about five times,
Copy !req
7. but lately, I've been stopping
after about two.
Copy !req
8. Having a crush
Copy !req
9. is so wonderful!
Copy !req
10. EPISODE 4
Copy !req
11. Thank you for the meal.
Copy !req
12. You have your match tomorrow.
Copy !req
13. Yup!
Copy !req
14. You're in a good mood.
Copy !req
15. I guess I'm just fulfilled every day.
Copy !req
16. You seem to have settled down quickly.
Copy !req
17. You know, a boy and a girl,
living under the same roof,
Copy !req
18. I'm surprised nothing's happened so far.
Copy !req
19. That's because...
Copy !req
20. SORRY TO BOTHER YOU!
Copy !req
21. Chinatsu Senpai!
Copy !req
22. DID YOU TAKE MY UNIFORM BY ACCIDENT?
Copy !req
23. I HAVE GYM FIFTH PERIOD...
Copy !req
24. I have to take this to her!
Copy !req
25. I'LL BRING IT TO YOU!
Copy !req
26. WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?
Copy !req
27. SOMEWHERE SECLUDED WOULD BE BEST, RIGHT?
Copy !req
28. HOW ABOUT THE AV ROOM?
Copy !req
29. I was in such a rush this morning.
Copy !req
30. We can't have anyone see us.
Copy !req
31. I need to do this quickly.
Copy !req
32. Yo, Taiki.
Copy !req
33. Why are you avoiding me?
Copy !req
34. It's not what you think.
Copy !req
35. This is perfect.
Copy !req
36. Come practice with me.
Copy !req
37. Sorry! I'll make it up after school!
Copy !req
38. He ran away.
Copy !req
39. This room is usually empty.
Copy !req
40. Taiki.
Copy !req
41. Hina! What are you doing here?
Copy !req
42. We're holding a rhythmic gymnastics
team meeting.
Copy !req
43. What?
Copy !req
44. You need something?
Copy !req
45. Not particularly.
Copy !req
46. - You dropped—
- Stop!
Copy !req
47. Listen, don't touch that.
Copy !req
48. Why not?
Copy !req
49. Hey.
Copy !req
50. Hey, hey.
Copy !req
51. Well, to be honest,
Copy !req
52. I haven't washed that since last summer.
Copy !req
53. - Get out of here.
- Okay.
Copy !req
54. Hold on, Taiki.
Copy !req
55. You were wearing your gym uniform
in gym class.
Copy !req
56. If you haven't washed it
since junior high...
Copy !req
57. The truth is, I've been wearing it
without ever washing it.
Copy !req
58. Be gone.
Copy !req
59. Okay.
Copy !req
60. Honestly.
Copy !req
61. Why are there people everywhere?
Copy !req
62. At this rate, Chinatsu Senpai
will have to wear my uniform.
Copy !req
63. There's no time left.
Copy !req
64. "Come to the west side of the roof"?
Copy !req
65. You're here.
Copy !req
66. Thank goodness we were able to meet up.
Copy !req
67. How do you have a key to the roof?
Copy !req
68. I borrowed it from my friend
in the astronomy club.
Copy !req
69. Here.
Copy !req
70. Thank you. You're a lifesaver.
Copy !req
71. So this is what Chinatsu Senpai
is like at school.
Copy !req
72. It's nothing.
Copy !req
73. Crap! You have to hurry,
or you'll be late!
Copy !req
74. What are you doing?
Copy !req
75. I thought I'd change here
because there's no time.
Copy !req
76. Here?
Copy !req
77. Don't worry.
Copy !req
78. Girls in athletics learn
to change anywhere.
Copy !req
79. We're trained to.
Copy !req
80. That's not the issue!
Copy !req
81. I'll make sure nobody comes up here.
Copy !req
82. Sorry.
Copy !req
83. I've said this before,
but she's way too defenseless.
Copy !req
84. Does she not understand how cute she is?
Copy !req
85. Crap!
Copy !req
86. These sounds are making me imagine things!
Copy !req
87. - For real?
- So then...
Copy !req
88. All done.
Copy !req
89. You okay?
Copy !req
90. Ten more seconds,
and I would've been a goner.
Copy !req
91. Ready to go?
Copy !req
92. You go on ahead.
Copy !req
93. Okay.
Copy !req
94. Thanks.
Copy !req
95. Getting changed right in front of me...
Copy !req
96. That must mean
she doesn't view me as a guy.
Copy !req
97. I need to work on that.
Copy !req
98. Good practice.
Copy !req
99. Did someone grab the shuttlecocks?
Copy !req
100. What time tomorrow?
Copy !req
101. Taiki!
Copy !req
102. You've got regional prelims tomorrow?
Copy !req
103. Make sure you don't get all worked up
and embarrass yourself.
Copy !req
104. Mind your business!
Copy !req
105. I'll make sure Kyo films it.
Copy !req
106. So I've been wondering...
Copy !req
107. Not even a little.
Copy !req
108. That right?
Copy !req
109. She's right, though. Don't get worked up.
Copy !req
110. You have me for doubles,
so that's a guaranteed win.
Copy !req
111. He's so confident!
Copy !req
112. You just need to finish in the top 16
in the singles next week.
Copy !req
113. I'll be fine!
Copy !req
114. I'm a lot better than before.
Copy !req
115. I'll even make it
to the top eight or four.
Copy !req
116. Well, just so you know,
you forgot your racket bag.
Copy !req
117. Why didn't you mention it earlier?
Copy !req
118. I wondered when you'd notice.
Copy !req
119. I'll be right back!
Copy !req
120. Taiki! Make sure you pack your uniform!
Copy !req
121. And don't forget your shoes and racket!
Copy !req
122. They're already packed.
Copy !req
123. Seeing Mom like this,
I understand where I get it from.
Copy !req
124. How many towels do you need? Eight?
Copy !req
125. I don't need any!
Copy !req
126. I've already packed everything I need.
Copy !req
127. Really?
Copy !req
128. Taiki!
Copy !req
129. - Laundry!
- Gimme a towel!
Copy !req
130. Here!
Copy !req
131. Hurry!
Copy !req
132. Get it together.
Copy !req
133. I know it's your first high school match,
but it's not your first rodeo.
Copy !req
134. Why are you so nervous?
Copy !req
135. Calm down.
Copy !req
136. Don't go out there and lose
because of some stupid mistake.
Copy !req
137. There's nothing to feel pressured about.
Copy !req
138. Exercise to clear the mind!
Copy !req
139. You're going to nationals, right?
Copy !req
140. Get it together!
Copy !req
141. You're practicing this late?
Copy !req
142. Chinatsu Senpai.
Copy !req
143. I decided to do some practice swings
to move my body.
Copy !req
144. Taiki.
Copy !req
145. Your shirt's inside out.
Copy !req
146. Okay, I might not be fine.
Copy !req
147. Sorry!
Copy !req
148. She didn't seem to care
about changing in front of me.
Copy !req
149. But this she minds.
Copy !req
150. Taiki.
Copy !req
151. Yes?
Copy !req
152. I didn't know you had a six-pack.
Copy !req
153. That's what it was?
Copy !req
154. I guess you do work out a lot.
Copy !req
155. That reminds me.
Copy !req
156. Haryu said your body was coming along.
Copy !req
157. Just because I got a little muscle
doesn't make me better at badminton.
Copy !req
158. Wow, talk about humble.
Copy !req
159. Taiki.
Copy !req
160. What is it?
Copy !req
161. Hyakue.
Copy !req
162. What?
Copy !req
163. It's a pressure point on your head.
Copy !req
164. It can help you relax.
Copy !req
165. There's no point in running around
the day before.
Copy !req
166. You've already put in the hard work.
Copy !req
167. So stop overthinking things
and go show them what you can do.
Copy !req
168. Got it?
Copy !req
169. Yeah.
Copy !req
170. Okay, this pressure point
Copy !req
171. really works.
Copy !req
172. Besides,
Copy !req
173. you still have next year
and the year after.
Copy !req
174. The year after?
Copy !req
175. But that's after you graduate.
Copy !req
176. You'll be even stronger than you are now.
Copy !req
177. That's not good enough for me.
Copy !req
178. Good night.
Copy !req
179. Okay!
Copy !req
180. Let's go!
Copy !req
181. Looks like you got over your nerves.
Copy !req
182. I don't have time to be nervous.
Copy !req
183. Well, good for you.
Copy !req
184. The doubles matches are about to begin.
Copy !req
185. ROUND 1
Copy !req
186. Out!
Copy !req
187. ROUND 3
Copy !req
188. ADVANCED TO BEST 16
Copy !req
189. - Huh?
- What?
Copy !req
190. I mean, it's going so smoothly.
Copy !req
191. Like we're not gonna
make it out of regional prelims.
Copy !req
192. You have me, dummy.
Copy !req
193. Please sign the match sheet.
Copy !req
194. Although it's painfully clear
what you need to work on.
Copy !req
195. He's right. These were real games
Copy !req
196. and there were so many instances
where he covered me.
Copy !req
197. He's so loud.
Copy !req
198. Such a bold playstyle too.
Copy !req
199. Or so I thought, but he's calculated.
Copy !req
200. One more down.
Copy !req
201. - Let's go.
- Okay.
Copy !req
202. Harry Senpai?
Copy !req
203. If it isn't the former KTS Junior member
Kengo Haryu.
Copy !req
204. Sorry, wrong person.
Copy !req
205. You crook!
Copy !req
206. Do you know him?
Copy !req
207. He used to be my doubles partner
in my junior days.
Copy !req
208. Meet Shimotomi High's Shoichiro Kishi.
Copy !req
209. He called you a crook.
Copy !req
210. I have no idea why.
Copy !req
211. That's because Harry Senpai
broke his promise.
Copy !req
212. You said you'd give me
Chinatsu Kano's number!
Copy !req
213. What?
Copy !req
214. I said if you beat me.
Copy !req
215. But I did.
Copy !req
216. In an official match.
Copy !req
217. Do you know Chinatsu Senpai?
Copy !req
218. Yeah.
Copy !req
219. How could I forget that fateful day
last year at Eimei's school festival?
Copy !req
220. My wallet's gone!
Copy !req
221. It was a limited edition!
Copy !req
222. Excuse me!
Copy !req
223. It was like my favorite idol
popped out of my wallet.
Copy !req
224. What anime is that?
Copy !req
225. Don't humor him.
Copy !req
226. After that, I heard she was friends
with Harry Senpai,
Copy !req
227. so I asked for an introduction.
Copy !req
228. But he never came through.
Copy !req
229. Isn't he awful?
Copy !req
230. You agree with me, right?
Copy !req
231. Nice job, Haryu Senpai.
Copy !req
232. Which is why today,
after I crush you in the doubles,
Copy !req
233. you'd better introduce me to her!
Copy !req
234. Kishi.
Copy !req
235. I don't feel too well.
Copy !req
236. I think I'm dying.
Copy !req
237. Yokoyama!
Copy !req
238. Lucky you already made it past
the prelims.
Copy !req
239. Fine, then!
Copy !req
240. We'll settle this at next week's singles!
Copy !req
241. I'm not playing in that.
Copy !req
242. When's your next official match, then?
Copy !req
243. The prefectural qualifiers in June.
Copy !req
244. June?
Copy !req
245. I'll find a sub, and we can play now!
Copy !req
246. - No way.
- I won't leave until you do!
Copy !req
247. Okay, fine.
Copy !req
248. I'll give you her number if you beat Taiki
in the singles next week.
Copy !req
249. More accurately,
I'll ask her if it's okay.
Copy !req
250. You can't just volunteer me!
Copy !req
251. Taiki?
Copy !req
252. My doubles partner over there.
Copy !req
253. This is a lock!
Copy !req
254. What should my first message be?
Copy !req
255. Be careful.
Copy !req
256. He's better than he looks.
Copy !req
257. What a jerk!
Copy !req
258. How did I get roped into this?
Copy !req
259. I don't like the idea of Kishi getting
Chinatsu Senpai's number either.
Copy !req
260. Doesn't mean he should just volunteer me.
Copy !req
261. That's right.
Copy !req
262. That's Chinatsu Senpai's voice.
Copy !req
263. It feels a little awkward to see her now.
Copy !req
264. I'm sure she didn't like
my attitude yesterday.
Copy !req
265. I'm the one so hung up on going
to nationals this year.
Copy !req
266. I'm so glad Taiki won.
Copy !req
267. Well, he has been practicing hard.
Copy !req
268. He swings his racket at home
instead of studying.
Copy !req
269. So he'd better win.
Copy !req
270. And I made tonkatsu
for him today to celebrate.
Copy !req
271. It'd be awkward if he lost.
Copy !req
272. Honestly, I was a little worried
Copy !req
273. that he's pushing himself too hard.
Copy !req
274. He's got two more years,
so what's the rush?
Copy !req
275. Yes.
Copy !req
276. I said that to him too.
Copy !req
277. That he still has next year and the next.
Copy !req
278. But then his attitude changed.
It was strange...
Copy !req
279. Isn't he always?
Copy !req
280. Shut up.
Copy !req
281. No, I understand why he'd get mad.
Copy !req
282. I mean, it's like I was saying
that he was free to lose this year.
Copy !req
283. I only realized it after.
Copy !req
284. That's true.
Copy !req
285. But I was just a little sad
about being reminded
Copy !req
286. that I'm a year behind her.
Copy !req
287. It's not like you meant it that way.
Copy !req
288. Of course not!
Copy !req
289. Then don't worry about it.
Copy !req
290. I know, but...
Copy !req
291. Part of it was me realizing
how quickly this year has gone by.
Copy !req
292. When I think that I only have a year left,
Copy !req
293. I got a little envious of Taiki.
Copy !req
294. I didn't say that to encourage him.
Copy !req
295. I was just expressing my own insecurities.
Copy !req
296. And I regret that.
Copy !req
297. Chinatsu.
Copy !req
298. You're such a nice girl.
Copy !req
299. That's not...
Copy !req
300. So pure!
Copy !req
301. I'm back!
Copy !req
302. Welcome home!
Copy !req
303. Congrats.
Copy !req
304. Thanks.
Copy !req
305. You got a good doubles partner, huh?
Copy !req
306. That's not all of it.
Copy !req
307. Besides,
Copy !req
308. I'll win my singles matches too!
Copy !req
309. You don't have to yell.
Copy !req
310. I'm going to put my stuff away.
Copy !req
311. Such a busy boy.
Copy !req
312. If she's feeling insecure,
Copy !req
313. that's all the more reason I can't lose.
Copy !req
314. Where does he get all that confidence?
Copy !req
315. You honestly don't have to worry
about what you said.
Copy !req
316. No.
Copy !req
317. I could learn from his example.
Copy !req
318. Good luck to you.
Copy !req
319. Rock, paper, scissors!
Copy !req
320. They're so fired up.
Copy !req
321. They're only determining who serves first...
Copy !req
322. Anyway, I heard you put some weird stakes
on this match.
Copy !req
323. Don't worry.
Copy !req
324. I won't tell him
if she doesn't want me to.
Copy !req
325. Chinatsu Senpai
might be too nice to say no.
Copy !req
326. Besides, I think Taiki's going to win.
Copy !req
327. What?
Copy !req
328. Obviously, since I'm the one training him.
Copy !req
329. In fact, if he loses,
I'll put him through hell.
Copy !req
330. Shudder!
Copy !req
331. I'm glad I'm not his doubles partner.
Copy !req
332. First game. Love-all.
Copy !req
333. Play!
Copy !req
334. Still, his smashes are powerful.
Copy !req
335. He's good at putting his weight behind it.
Copy !req
336. You can't just return them.
Copy !req
337. There you are.
Copy !req
338. What's up, ladies?
Copy !req
339. What're you doing here?
Copy !req
340. We had a practice game
against Kita High next door.
Copy !req
341. We came to check out the tournament.
Copy !req
342. Is anyone playing?
Copy !req
343. My doubles partner.
Copy !req
344. Oh, him? Let's cheer him on.
Copy !req
345. Is it because we came?
Copy !req
346. He can't get any attacks off.
Copy !req
347. Are you one of those people
Copy !req
348. who think figure skaters fail their jumps
when you watch?
Copy !req
349. It's probably his strategy.
Copy !req
350. His strategy?
Copy !req
351. It takes time to get used to the speed
of someone's smashes.
Copy !req
352. Taiki's slow at repositioning.
Copy !req
353. So he's playing defensive at first
to tire out his opponent.
Copy !req
354. If you look carefully,
his shots are keeping his opponent moving.
Copy !req
355. The kid's gotten pretty smart.
Copy !req
356. Match number 15...
Copy !req
357. I should get going.
Copy !req
358. Good luck.
Copy !req
359. Not going to watch up close?
Copy !req
360. I'm fine here.
Copy !req
361. So, actually, I know your situation.
Copy !req
362. Taiki told me.
Copy !req
363. He said he trusts you.
Copy !req
364. Okay, she is cute.
Copy !req
365. There's something nerve-racking
about tournaments.
Copy !req
366. Each shot feels heavier.
Copy !req
367. Did you know?
Copy !req
368. This game has your phone number
on the line.
Copy !req
369. And just so you know,
Haryu Senpai's to blame.
Copy !req
370. So take it up with him.
Copy !req
371. It's just that Taiki
gets nothing for winning.
Copy !req
372. So,
Copy !req
373. would you take him to the aquarium
or something if he wins?
Copy !req
374. We can't use the gym tomorrow anyways,
so there's no practice scheduled.
Copy !req
375. Besides,
Copy !req
376. you're part of the reason
he's so motivated.
Copy !req
377. I doubt I have that much influence on him...
Copy !req
378. Yeah, you do.
Copy !req
379. She stayed behind in Japan
by herself to make the nationals!
Copy !req
380. She practices first thing
in the morning! So will I!
Copy !req
381. He's easily swayed.
Copy !req
382. He's always been stubborn.
Once he makes up his mind, that's it.
Copy !req
383. But even as a friend,
I can say he's been doing well lately.
Copy !req
384. The old him wouldn't have been able
to pick up those shots.
Copy !req
385. I'm sure that part of it
Copy !req
386. is because he has someone close
with the same goals
Copy !req
387. to keep him disciplined
and motivate him to put in the effort.
Copy !req
388. So, if he's able to achieve
some good results,
Copy !req
389. I think he deserves some kind of reward.
Copy !req
390. Yes!
Copy !req
391. He's fired up.
Copy !req
392. Okay.
Copy !req
393. If Taiki wins, we'll go to the aquarium.
Copy !req
