1. I wish I'd never been born.
Copy !req
2. I got skunked.
Copy !req
3. The whole world's laughing at me.
Copy !req
4. Peco, do me a favor and go home.
You're making it hard to breathe in here.
Copy !req
5. I can't see his weaknesses.
Copy !req
6. Where are they?
Copy !req
7. Hook loop!
Copy !req
8. Inside out loop!
Copy !req
9. Smash!
Copy !req
10. Backhand!
Copy !req
11. Inside out!
Copy !req
12. Forehand!
Copy !req
13. Oh, wow.
Copy !req
14. He's hitting predetermined shots to predetermined spots, right?
Copy !req
15. He hasn't played against any of us even once.
Copy !req
16. He must think we suck or something.
Copy !req
17. Inside out!
Copy !req
18. Anyway, is Kong's rubber that
one you can only get in China?
Copy !req
19. Probably not, since he doesn't
represent his province anymore.
Copy !req
20. Shut up! You're distracting me!
Copy !req
21. Kong can't focus. Could you keep it down a bit?
Copy !req
22. S-Sorry.
Copy !req
23. What's wrong, Wenge?
Copy !req
24. Is the chopper with glasses out today too?
Copy !req
25. Do you guys know a chopper with glasses?
Copy !req
26. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
27. Gouda! Kong's calling for you.
Copy !req
28. Let's keep going, Coach.
Copy !req
29. Where is he?
Copy !req
30. It's safe and quiet here.
Copy !req
31. I really feel at ease.
Copy !req
32. It's okay.
Copy !req
33. I'm fine here.
Copy !req
34. This is where I want to be.
Copy !req
35. I'll hold my breath and be quiet, like a robot.
Copy !req
36. So...
Copy !req
37. So leave me alone!
Copy !req
38. Look for him yourself.
Copy !req
39. Peco's probably at the table tennis hall near Odakyuu Station.
Copy !req
40. I'll draw you a map. You go.
Copy !req
41. If you keep talkin' like that,
I'm seriously gonna haze you!
Copy !req
42. But logically speaking—
Copy !req
43. Screw logic!
Copy !req
44. Yeah, that's the iron-clad rule of sports clubs.
Copy !req
45. Don't go.
Copy !req
46. Mr. Tsukimoto, don't go to Tamura anymore.
Copy !req
47. Don't play against Hoshino.
Copy !req
48. I don't understand why I shouldn't.
Copy !req
49. Yeah, me neither.
Copy !req
50. Because you hold back when you play Hoshino.
Copy !req
51. No, I don't.
Copy !req
52. You don't even realize you're doing it, I see.
Copy !req
53. Mr. Tsukimoto, starting tomorrow, you'll
be training with me every morning at five.
Copy !req
54. You lack a thirst to win, and we're going to fix that
weak point by the time the Interhigh comes around.
Copy !req
55. Let's get sport-spirited!
Copy !req
56. That's my proposal.
Copy !req
57. I'm looking forward to seeing you at
five tomorrow morning, Mr. Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
58. I'm not coming in at 5 AM.
Copy !req
59. No problem.
Copy !req
60. I'm the devoted-husband type.
Copy !req
61. Devoted! Isn't that nice, Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
62. May you live happily ever after.
Copy !req
63. A new age has dawned, and still I can't make a decision
Copy !req
64. My path is too straight for my taste, but I'll walk it
Copy !req
65. I can't choose just yet
Copy !req
66. I have to think about it
Copy !req
67. I have no idea what I want to do
Copy !req
68. I'm going crazy!
Copy !req
69. Comparing yourself to others just makes you depressed
Copy !req
70. You're alone in this world
Copy !req
71. You're always alone here
Copy !req
72. Still you're gonna do it, right?
Copy !req
73. Maybe there's nothing that only I can do
Copy !req
74. But there's no way that I
Copy !req
75. But there's no way that I
Copy !req
76. But there's no way that I won't try to leave my mark
Copy !req
77. I just want to have my fun, whatever the times
Copy !req
78. Man, soft drinks are getting weaker.
Copy !req
79. I don't know if it's some health fad or what,
but I can't stand this lightly carbonated stuff.
Copy !req
80. Hey, Smile. Is practice over?
Copy !req
81. Yeah.
Copy !req
82. I bet they made you do laps
outside because I played hooky.
Copy !req
83. Yeah.
Copy !req
84. Sucks to be you, getting harassed by the upperclassmen whenever I skip.
Copy !req
85. Yeah.
Copy !req
86. Well, that ends today.
Copy !req
87. I'm giving up on table tennis.
Copy !req
88. Okay.
Copy !req
89. "Okay"? That's all?
Copy !req
90. If you don't want to play, you should quit.
Copy !req
91. No reason to force yourself to keep going.
Copy !req
92. Yeah. No reason to force myself.
Copy !req
93. How long until the Interhigh prelims?
Copy !req
94. Two months.
Copy !req
95. Good grief. Doesn't even give me time to sulk.
Copy !req
96. Old lady, I'm gonna use Table Four.
Copy !req
97. You'll have to pay.
Copy !req
98. Today's the fourth day I've done radio
exercises in the gym all by my lonesome.
Copy !req
99. Why won't you come to morning practice, Mr. Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
100. Why do I have to, Mr. Koizumi?
Copy !req
101. A coach's job only has meaning
when he has an athlete to guide.
Copy !req
102. Do you understand that you're my athlete?
Copy !req
103. No.
Copy !req
104. Well, I want you to think of nothing but table tennis.
Copy !req
105. What are you thinking about now?
Copy !req
106. Question five.
Copy !req
107. Nonsense!
Copy !req
108. What good will high school English lessons ever do you?
Copy !req
109. Be quiet, Teach! We can't concentrate!
Copy !req
110. Sorry, sorry.
Copy !req
111. I'm just passing the time.
Copy !req
112. Table tennis and learning English vocabulary are just ways to pass the time until I die.
Copy !req
113. Smile, are you a peanut man or a caramel man?
Copy !req
114. Caramel.
Copy !req
115. Right? It's just common sense!
Copy !req
116. But the convenience store in my
neighborhood only sells the peanut kind.
Copy !req
117. That crunchy stuff is just wrong.
Copy !req
118. Makes me sick.
Copy !req
119. Mr. Tsukimoto, what are you eating?
Copy !req
120. A hambargar.
Copy !req
121. Not "bargar." Burger.
Copy !req
122. Vurger?
Copy !req
123. That's a lump of cholesterol, made of low-grade oil.
Copy !req
124. Wow!
Copy !req
125. Starting today, I'll make your lunch for you.
Copy !req
126. I'll feed you healthy meals so you can build a table tennis body.
Copy !req
127. I don't want—
Copy !req
128. It's love!
Copy !req
129. Yes! Love!
Copy !req
130. You look like you're having fun.
Copy !req
131. Spring has finally come for this old fool.
Copy !req
132. Oh, is that a love letter?
Copy !req
133. That's some tough love.
Copy !req
134. Throw it away.
Copy !req
135. More variation!
Copy !req
136. Stick with it!
Copy !req
137. Move your feet!
Copy !req
138. Is Koizumi always like this when he gets going?
Copy !req
139. No. Maybe he's in heat? It is springtime.
Copy !req
140. You're being repetitive!
Copy !req
141. You need more variation!
Copy !req
142. Smile really hates being yelled at, though.
Copy !req
143. Don't let him ace you!
Copy !req
144. Why aren't you attacking?
Copy !req
145. Don't just wait for mistakes!
Copy !req
146. You should've gone for it there!
Copy !req
147. How many times must I say it?
Copy !req
148. Do you even want to win?
Copy !req
149. Where are you going, Mr. Tsukimoto? Hey!
Copy !req
150. He fled.
Copy !req
151. Wait! Wait!
Copy !req
152. Hey, mister!
Copy !req
153. Oh well.
Copy !req
154. You can see Mt. Fuji in all its glory today.
Copy !req
155. Cheer up, Smile.
Copy !req
156. The weather's great.
Copy !req
157. Interacting with people just exhausts me lately.
Copy !req
158. And table tennis is getting more complicated too.
Copy !req
159. He may be a little hard on you,
Copy !req
160. but I think Koizumi's coaching is right on the money.
Copy !req
161. You're wrong, Peco.
Copy !req
162. I'm only in it for a good time.
Copy !req
163. Having fun is enough.
Copy !req
164. I don't want to sacrifice anything or drag anyone down just to win.
Copy !req
165. Shall we?
Copy !req
166. Hello!
Copy !req
167. I'm a second-year from Kaiou Academy, Kazama Ryuuichi!
Copy !req
168. I've come today to watch you practice!
Copy !req
169. Kai-ou.
Copy !req
170. What's the Dragon doing here?
Copy !req
171. He won the Interhigh last year.
Copy !req
172. Didn't he place fourth in the World Juniors?
Copy !req
173. What's he doing at Katase?
Copy !req
174. Is he here scouting?
Copy !req
175. Hoshino?
Copy !req
176. Bet it's for me.
Copy !req
177. Nobody asked you.
Copy !req
178. But with a face like that, is he really a high school student?
Copy !req
179. Why don't we step outside, Mr. Kazama?
Copy !req
180. My students are all wimps.
Copy !req
181. Tsukimoto's not here today.
Copy !req
182. He's the one you're interested in, correct?
Copy !req
183. I first saw him at my last middle-school prefectural tournament.
Copy !req
184. He lost, but his control, speed,
playmaking, reflexes, concentration—
Copy !req
185. They were all far above the abilities of a middle schooler.
Copy !req
186. Honestly, I felt he was a threat.
Copy !req
187. And yet he lost.
Copy !req
188. Who was he playing?
Copy !req
189. Sakuma Manabu.
Copy !req
190. He's one of our first-years now, but I heard he used
to frequent the same table tennis hall as Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
191. I see.
Copy !req
192. Human reaction time maxes out at 0.1 seconds.
Copy !req
193. You reach the acme of table tennis by getting as close to that as possible.
Copy !req
194. The chairman of Kaiou Academy once said that.
Copy !req
195. Yes.
Copy !req
196. It's fundamentally different from the
"table tennis" on a hot springs vacation.
Copy !req
197. Was that a dig against our school?
Copy !req
198. You're saying we're a bad fit for Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
199. To me, he looks like a swan among ducklings here.
Copy !req
200. Question for you, Mr. Kazama.
Copy !req
201. What are the odds of Tsukimoto beating you in
the Interhigh preliminaries in two months' time?
Copy !req
202. Nil.
Copy !req
203. I want to be No. 1 on the whole planet, you feel me?
Copy !req
204. I want to be the world champion!
Copy !req
205. It's my dream!
Copy !req
206. We're different that way, yeah?
Copy !req
207. Yeah.
Copy !req
208. In my case, it's pretty simple.
Copy !req
209. I don't care about anyone else. I just don't find losing fun.
Copy !req
210. Anyway, all's good as long as I win.
Copy !req
211. That's pretty cool.
Copy !req
212. I'm cheering you on, Peco.
Copy !req
213. Then come to the club tomorrow.
Copy !req
214. Practice is pointless without you there.
Copy !req
215. I can feel another hot summer's coming.
Copy !req
216. Smile's a Robot
Copy !req
217. As I've asked before: why do I have a different training regimen from everyone else?
Copy !req
218. Because you yourself are different from the others.
Copy !req
219. Let's hurry, honey.
Copy !req
220. We don't have time to dilly-dally.
Copy !req
221. They're training with two tables.
Copy !req
222. Looks tough.
Copy !req
223. Too slow! Too slow! Too slow!
Copy !req
224. Speed it up!
Copy !req
225. No pauses!
Copy !req
226. Keep moving!
Copy !req
227. The old man's giving him tricky ones.
Copy !req
228. I'm impressed Smile can return them.
Copy !req
229. He runs a wicked fast marathon, you know.
Copy !req
230. Where'd you get that lollipop during practice?
Copy !req
231. Crossover!
Copy !req
232. There! Go!
Copy !req
233. The convenience store.
Copy !req
234. Too slow!
Copy !req
235. No lying down, Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
236. There's no bed down there!
Copy !req
237. What is this going to accomplish?
Copy !req
238. You'll get stronger.
Copy !req
239. That's stupid.
Copy !req
240. Not at all.
Copy !req
241. Are awards and trophies really so important?
Copy !req
242. There are sights you can only see from the top.
Copy !req
243. I'm not interested.
Copy !req
244. You always withdraw into your shell like that.
Copy !req
245. That's how I live.
Copy !req
246. It's no business of yours.
Copy !req
247. Then I challenge you to a match, Mr. Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
248. If you win, I promise never to interfere with you again.
Copy !req
249. What if I lose?
Copy !req
250. You'll be my dog.
Copy !req
251. Woof, woof, woof.
Copy !req
252. You'll obey my every command.
Copy !req
253. The best of three will now begin!
Copy !req
254. Mr. Koizumi to serve!
Copy !req
255. I'll tame you.
Copy !req
256. Ready!
Copy !req
257. Does the old geezer really think he can beat Smile?
Copy !req
258. He's got no chance.
Copy !req
259. I hear he was famous back in the day, but he's no match for Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
260. Let me show you just how weak and frail your table tennis is, Mr. Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
261. Hey!
Copy !req
262. That shouldn't've been a point.
Copy !req
263. But you returned, didn't you? Didn't you?
Copy !req
264. One-love! One-love!
Copy !req
265. That was pretty immature, Coach!
Copy !req
266. He's good.
Copy !req
267. Going to get mad, Mr. Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
268. No, you'll shrink from me.
Copy !req
269. When an opponent challenges you aggressively...
Copy !req
270. There!
Copy !req
271. you get scared.
Copy !req
272. Yeah!
Copy !req
273. Listen to the old-timer roar.
Copy !req
274. He knows exactly what Smile hates.
Copy !req
275. I can see it.
Copy !req
276. I can read you like a book.
Copy !req
277. You'll return a shot from this angle
with a flat hit straight down the line.
Copy !req
278. There it is!
Copy !req
279. And you give up at the drop of a hat.
Copy !req
280. Accepting defeat with such good grace is naïve!
Copy !req
281. You cannot fly across an ocean on wings so thin.
Copy !req
282. Defeat and setbacks!
Copy !req
283. Loss and grief!
Copy !req
284. Amazing.
Copy !req
285. Isolation and turmoil.
Copy !req
286. Anguish and despair!
Copy !req
287. This isn't how an old man with one foot in the grave...
Copy !req
288. Nihilism and ruin!
Copy !req
289. is supposed to play.
Copy !req
290. Five-love!
Copy !req
291. I'll show you, Mr. Tsukimoto...
Copy !req
292. Eight-love!
Copy !req
293. how naïve you are!
Copy !req
294. And the strong heart you'll need if you're to win!
Copy !req
295. It's safe and quiet here.
Copy !req
296. I really feel at ease.
Copy !req
297. Someone's coming!
Copy !req
298. It's okay.
Copy !req
299. I'm fine here.
Copy !req
300. This is where I want to be.
Copy !req
301. If I go out there, it'll happen again...
Copy !req
302. Eleven-four!
Copy !req
303. Game to Mr. Koizumi.
Copy !req
304. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
305. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
306. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
307. He might actually beat him.
Copy !req
308. You haven't changed one bit, Smile.
Copy !req
309. You're as naïve as ever.
Copy !req
310. A drive down the middle is your weak point.
Copy !req
311. You can't quickly decide whether to return it forehand or backhand.
Copy !req
312. But you always return the ball long with a backhand chop.
Copy !req
313. Utterly predictable.
Copy !req
314. Don't take me lightly!
Copy !req
315. Does your benevolence run so deep, Mr. Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
316. Are you prepared to become my dog?
Copy !req
317. When I say "shake," you'll offer me your paw!
Copy !req
318. You'll spin around three times and bark!
Copy !req
319. I'll make you do it, Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
320. I'll put a leash around your neck
and take you for walks every day!
Copy !req
321. You are incredible!
Copy !req
322. A shining example of the young supporting our aging society!
Copy !req
323. Why won't anybody leave me alone?
Copy !req
324. I don't do anything to them.
Copy !req
325. I don't get angry.
Copy !req
326. I don't smile.
Copy !req
327. I'm just here.
Copy !req
328. I'm even breathing silently!
Copy !req
329. I quietly do as I'm told, like a robot.
Copy !req
330. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
331. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
332. Enter the hero.
Copy !req
333. Who's there?
Copy !req
334. Hand on table!
Copy !req
335. That costs you a point, Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
336. Shut up.
Copy !req
337. It's nothing to shout about.
Copy !req
338. I'd like you to be quiet too, Sir.
Copy !req
339. It's more than distracting; it's annoying.
Copy !req
340. Hey, that seriously feels against the rules!
Copy !req
341. Okay.
Copy !req
342. So cool.
Copy !req
343. Eleven-six!
Copy !req
344. Game to Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
345. Old Koizumi's finished.
Copy !req
346. He put up a good fight, though.
Copy !req
347. He's over 70, right?
Copy !req
348. A close game's gotta be rough on him.
Copy !req
349. You've surprised me, Smile.
Copy !req
350. When did you learn to play like that?
Copy !req
351. Not a very friendly kid.
Copy !req
352. Can't he even say "hello"?
Copy !req
353. He never smiles.
Copy !req
354. Table tennis?
Copy !req
355. Gently, like you're holding an egg.
Copy !req
356. Would you please get up?
Copy !req
357. It's extremely annoying how you pause after every point.
Copy !req
358. There's no bed down there.
Copy !req
359. I'm dizzy.
Copy !req
360. Could I have five minutes?
Copy !req
361. Ref! He wants to forfeit.
Copy !req
362. I was just kidding! I take it back!
Copy !req
363. Good, Mr. Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
364. Excellent! Very good!
Copy !req
365. Koizumi doesn't look so good.
Copy !req
366. He's lost his marbles.
Copy !req
367. Tsukimoto's heartless.
Copy !req
368. You get it, don't you, Mr. Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
369. That you don't chase the ball.
Copy !req
370. The ball chases you.
Copy !req
371. You will become stronger.
Copy !req
372. You can feel it, can't you, Mr. Tsukimoto?
Copy !req
373. You feel the ball chase you!
Copy !req
374. Now, show me what you can do!
Copy !req
375. That'll go past you! Prove you can return it!
Copy !req
376. That's it, Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
377. The ball chases you!
Copy !req
378. Can I be like you?
Copy !req
379. Think I can be like you, Peco?
Copy !req
380. I want to be like you, Peco.
Copy !req
381. Like you.
Copy !req
382. Hey, the coach fell over!
Copy !req
383. His head went bang when it hit!
Copy !req
384. Is he dead?
Copy !req
385. First-years, go to the nurse's office!
Copy !req
386. Move it!
Copy !req
387. But Koizumi's smiling.
Copy !req
388. You're right.
Copy !req
389. Did he land on a bad spot?
Copy !req
390. I'm going ahead, Peco.
Copy !req
391. What?
Copy !req
392. I'm leaving.
Copy !req
393. Say what? Don't be a jerk, Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
394. Teach just fainted!
Copy !req
395. Are you ignoring me? Hey!
Copy !req
396. Wait! Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
397. A red sun stares at me
Copy !req
398. The world goes blurry when I yawn
Copy !req
399. My wishes fluctuate like a metronome
Copy !req
400. Everything tells me this is the end
Copy !req
401. I do have some dreams, you know
Copy !req
402. I do have some dreams, you know
Copy !req
403. Sometimes we breathe
Copy !req
404. Sometimes we breathe
Copy !req
405. and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone
Copy !req
406. and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone
Copy !req
407. somewhere out of sight
Copy !req
