1. Smile, you still followin' Peco wherever he goes?
Copy !req
2. Say hi to the old lady for me.
Copy !req
3. Demon's amazing. He's playing the first game for Kaiou.
Copy !req
4. Could you ask him to come to our school?
Copy !req
5. The only way to be sure you won't lose is to not fight.
Copy !req
6. Where's Kazama?
Copy !req
7. A new age has dawned, and still I can't make a decision
Copy !req
8. My path is too straight for my taste, but I'll walk it
Copy !req
9. I can't choose just yet
Copy !req
10. I have to think about it
Copy !req
11. I have no idea what I want to do
Copy !req
12. I'm going crazy!
Copy !req
13. Comparing yourself to others just makes you depressed
Copy !req
14. You're alone in this world
Copy !req
15. You're always alone here
Copy !req
16. Still you're gonna do it, right?
Copy !req
17. Maybe there's nothing that only I can do
Copy !req
18. But there's no way that I
Copy !req
19. But there's no way that I
Copy !req
20. But there's no way that I won't try to leave my mark
Copy !req
21. I just want to have my fun, whatever the times
Copy !req
22. You sure, Wenge?
Copy !req
23. You don't have to stay here alone.
Copy !req
24. Well, I don't know how I can face them...
Copy !req
25. Plus, I was hired to beef up that week little club,
Copy !req
26. even if that wasn't the real goal.
Copy !req
27. Hello. Goodbye. Thank you.
Copy !req
28. Heh heh. Pretty good, huh?
Copy !req
29. The only saving grace is that Kazama won worlds as well.
Copy !req
30. If he'd lost the Interhigh,
Copy !req
31. I would've found a witch to turn me into a frog.
Copy !req
32. I'll miss you, Wenge.
Copy !req
33. Right back at ya.
Copy !req
34. Kazama! Congratulations on your gold
medal in singles at the Youth Olympics!
Copy !req
35. Could you share your thoughts?
Copy !req
36. My performance in the team and
doubles events was less than stellar,
Copy !req
37. but I'm satisfied with my victory in the singles.
Copy !req
38. However, what I'm most worried about is my school, Kaiou.
Copy !req
39. The overall strength of our team has dropped.
Copy !req
40. For Kaiou Academy to be as formidable as it once was,
Copy !req
41. we require players as good as
Tsukimoto from Katase High School.
Copy !req
42. Kazama!
Copy !req
43. Huh?
Copy !req
44. That's it?
Copy !req
45. Huh? Is that the girl from the commercials?
Copy !req
46. The ones for Poseidon?
Copy !req
47. That was an all-too-brief interview with Kazama Ryuuichi,
who took singles gold in the Youth Olympics table tennis.
Copy !req
48. Now, back to you.
Copy !req
49. Let's play table tennis!
Copy !req
50. By Fujisawa Station.
Copy !req
51. Congrats! You're amazing, Ryuu!
Copy !req
52. Auntie Emiko was overjoyed too.
Copy !req
53. Have you called her?
Copy !req
54. No.
Copy !req
55. You should! She'd be really happy.
Copy !req
56. I hear she always shows her customers newspaper clippings of you.
Copy !req
57. So, home?
Copy !req
58. No. I want to see the old man first.
Copy !req
59. Really? That sucks.
Copy !req
60. Say, there's a good pancake house nearby...
Copy !req
61. Sorry. I get it.
Copy !req
62. Even though you're world champ, you've got it rough.
Copy !req
63. It's like Grampa's at the center of the world!
Copy !req
64. That's pricey.
Copy !req
65. It's dirt cheap.
Copy !req
66. You'd pay more than double this at a resort beach!
Copy !req
67. You sure we need these?
Copy !req
68. We'd burn to a crisp in less than half an hour without a parasol.
Copy !req
69. And chairs are mandatory!
Copy !req
70. Jeez, I'm gonna be covered in sand!
Copy !req
71. Rub lotion on me.
Copy !req
72. Gimme a minute.
Copy !req
73. What's up with that? It's hilarious.
Copy !req
74. It's totally cracked.
Copy !req
75. Huh?
Copy !req
76. Hey, isn't there a famous pancake house around here?
Copy !req
77. Yo, we want to order.
Copy !req
78. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
79. Order something for me.
Copy !req
80. What?
Copy !req
81. What would you like?
Copy !req
82. I don't want that crap.
Copy !req
83. What?
Copy !req
84. Oh...
Copy !req
85. I guess the beach isn't right for me, either.
Copy !req
86. Maybe I'll try the mountains.
Copy !req
87. Are you ready?
Copy !req
88. We're about to close up.
Copy !req
89. Good work, Ryuuichi.
Copy !req
90. Next we'll spend some money
on a commercial featuring you.
Copy !req
91. Still, you pulled quite the stunt!
Copy !req
92. And on TV too.
Copy !req
93. Will he come to us?
Copy !req
94. No doubt.
Copy !req
95. I'm sure he knows where he belongs.
Copy !req
96. I'm counting on you.
Copy !req
97. Kaiou must always win.
Copy !req
98. This isn't good, Ryuuichi.
Copy !req
99. You know it isn't.
Copy !req
100. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
101. I'm very sorry, sir!
Copy !req
102. I can tell you're genuinely worried for Kaiou.
Copy !req
103. But the guys who got crushed at the Interhigh haven't bounced back yet,
Copy !req
104. and their captain only caring about another school's player is a slap in the face.
Copy !req
105. My apologies, sir!
Copy !req
106. Yo. I hear Kazama got called into the Coach's office.
Copy !req
107. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
108. He ran his mouth at the airport on the afternoon news.
Copy !req
109. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
110. Apparently, the guy's like a robot. He doesn't even smile.
Copy !req
111. His name's Tsukimoto, right?
Copy !req
112. But we're talking about Kazama here.
Copy !req
113. He didn't mention him by accident.
Copy !req
114. He's planning to get that four-eyes with the parted hair on our team.
Copy !req
115. Probably so.
Copy !req
116. Where Did I
Go Wrong?
Copy !req
117. Thanks. Good work.
Copy !req
118. Your speed is dropping.
Copy !req
119. Pick it up!
Copy !req
120. Swing your arms.
Copy !req
121. More! More!
Copy !req
122. Tough it out!
Copy !req
123. There!
Copy !req
124. Okay, you're good.
Copy !req
125. Don't stop.
Copy !req
126. Keep walking.
Copy !req
127. Hey, Captain Oota.
Copy !req
128. You heading home?
Copy !req
129. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
130. We're calling it a day, but do
you need help with anything?
Copy !req
131. No, thanks.
Copy !req
132. See you later, then!
Copy !req
133. Goodbye.
Copy !req
134. I don't like it.
Copy !req
135. Oota, what're you up to today?
Copy !req
136. Getting my license.
Copy !req
137. Gotta be able to drive my family's light truck.
Copy !req
138. A family business must be nice.
Copy !req
139. We're college-bound with no prospects.
Copy !req
140. Moron.
Copy !req
141. You don't know how rough small-town appliance stores have it.
Copy !req
142. Your bowl-headed friend didn't come today, either.
Copy !req
143. Let's go inside.
Copy !req
144. We'll catch a chill.
Copy !req
145. Hm? Ah, right.
Copy !req
146. Next is multi-ball training.
Copy !req
147. Okay.
Copy !req
148. Use your feet.
Copy !req
149. You missed a ball.
Copy !req
150. Don't return with just your hands.
Copy !req
151. You're slow! Too slow! Your feet are flopping all over the place!
Copy !req
152. Personally, I like Akagi Dairy.
Copy !req
153. I'm impressed by their liberal management style.
Copy !req
154. Their BLACK commercials are pretty sharp too.
Copy !req
155. The success of their cream products hasn't made them arrogant.
Copy !req
156. They keep putting out new products.
Copy !req
157. You look like burnt toast.
Copy !req
158. I almost didn't recognize you.
Copy !req
159. I thought you quit, Hoshino.
Copy !req
160. I don't see Smile around.
Copy !req
161. Have you put on weight?
Copy !req
162. Ugh, for real?
Copy !req
163. Tsukimoto's running laps outside with the old man.
Copy !req
164. He's on a completely different training regimen from us.
Copy !req
165. He comes to school at five in the morning and runs ten kilometers.
Copy !req
166. He's doing three times the exercise we are.
Copy !req
167. The old man arranges a stupid
number of matches for him too.
Copy !req
168. Why?
Copy !req
169. Hello, everybody.
Copy !req
170. Are you all here?
Copy !req
171. Yo.
Copy !req
172. Have you put on weight?
Copy !req
173. Your new glasses just make it look that way.
Copy !req
174. You've been eating too many sweets.
Copy !req
175. That's my policy.
Copy !req
176. The cigarettes too?
Copy !req
177. Huh?
Copy !req
178. He looks down on us.
Copy !req
179. He plays so many matches because
none of us are worth practicing with.
Copy !req
180. Which means we play schools that're at his level.
Copy !req
181. The prince rides the winning-streak highway alone.
Copy !req
182. There's no "team" here anymore.
Copy !req
183. He's the only member of the first string; everyone else is just a ball boy.
Copy !req
184. What? Sakuma's not here?
Copy !req
185. No, sir! He said he'd rest up in the dorms because he's coming down with a cold!
Copy !req
186. A cold?
Copy !req
187. Very well.
Copy !req
188. Fine. You can go.
Copy !req
189. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
190. Three!
Copy !req
191. Four!
Copy !req
192. Look, I don't believe in Sakuma's "cold."
Copy !req
193. One!
Copy !req
194. Two!
Copy !req
195. He's the type who'd play with appendicitis.
Copy !req
196. Three!
Copy !req
197. Four!
Copy !req
198. The posters in his dorm room ain't funny to me.
Copy !req
199. He worships you like a god.
Copy !req
200. One, two, three, four!
Copy !req
201. Where would a guy like that go?
Copy !req
202. Kaiou doesn't tolerate us playin' other schools' athletes without permission.
Copy !req
203. One, two, three, four!
Copy !req
204. Knowing that, where could Sakuma have gone?
Copy !req
205. It's fine by me if you want that chopper from Katase.
Copy !req
206. One, two, three, four!
Copy !req
207. But it seems to me that if you go around callin' us losers in public,
Copy !req
208. it might throw a spanner in the works.
Copy !req
209. One, two, three, four!
Copy !req
210. You hear me, Kazama?
Copy !req
211. Kazama, break time is over.
Copy !req
212. Oh.
Copy !req
213. Concerned about Sakuma after all, huh?
Copy !req
214. No.
Copy !req
215. Yeah, Sakuma's the last guy who'd—
Copy !req
216. Sakuma will lose.
Copy !req
217. Tsukimoto Makoto's play is on a
different level from the rest of you.
Copy !req
218. Sakuma can't beat him.
Copy !req
219. I smell sweet olive.
Copy !req
220. Excuse me, but we need to start!
Copy !req
221. Yeah, yeah, we're comin'!
Copy !req
222. Anyway, Sakuma will leave a hole in our team.
Copy !req
223. What?
Copy !req
224. Our most pressing need is finding someone to fill it.
Copy !req
225. You hold it right there.
Copy !req
226. How do you figure Sakuma'd feel if he heard that? Well?
Copy !req
227. He's been with us through thick and thin!
Copy !req
228. Here's what I'd like to know: how is that compassion going to help us regain our former glory?
Copy !req
229. We can't even dominate the Interhigh without
players who can win on the international stage.
Copy !req
230. Nothing has changed. We're still in crisis.
Copy !req
231. Winter is coming.
Copy !req
232. Smells like trouble.
Copy !req
233. You think it's funny, don't you?
Copy !req
234. Is it about what Ryuu said on TV?
Copy !req
235. Yeah.
Copy !req
236. Thanks.
Copy !req
237. There's a first-year on my team. One of a dying breed.
Copy !req
238. He plays our first match.
Copy !req
239. Is he good?
Copy !req
240. He's the poster boy for awkwardness. If there were contests in it, he'd be in the running immediately.
Copy !req
241. I didn't scout him.
Copy !req
242. In fact, I was set against letting him on the team.
Copy !req
243. I kept turning him down, telling him he'd only suffer.
Copy !req
244. But he refused to listen. He said,
"I came to Kaiou to become like Kazama."
Copy !req
245. I caved, figuring I could make him
manager someday... But you know what?
Copy !req
246. He turned out to be the type who, if you tell him to
drop and give you ten, will do a hundred or a thousand.
Copy !req
247. But table tennis is a sport where natural talent really matters.
Copy !req
248. It's impossible for him to become like Ryuuichi.
Copy !req
249. But your dad here likes him.
Copy !req
250. He's just too adorable for me!
Copy !req
251. It's the same for our team now.
Copy !req
252. We're weaker than we were in our glory days, but I love those guys.
Copy !req
253. I wish Ryuuichi felt the same way.
Copy !req
254. It's not easy when things don't go your way.
Copy !req
255. What will you do when you graduate from junior college?
Copy !req
256. I'm thinking it over.
Copy !req
257. Let me hear you, first-years!
Copy !req
258. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
259. Oh dear.
Copy !req
260. Hey. What's wrong, mister?
Copy !req
261. Why did you stop? Come on!
Copy !req
262. Come on, Demon.
Copy !req
263. Have your eyes gotten that bad?
Copy !req
264. You got off at the wrong station.
Copy !req
265. This isn't Kaiou Academy, you know.
Copy !req
266. Put on some weight, Peco?
Copy !req
267. Excuse me!
Copy !req
268. Where might I find the coach?
Copy !req
269. Here.
Copy !req
270. Sir!
Copy !req
271. I am Sakuma, first-year at Kaiou!
Copy !req
272. I've come here today because I'd like to play Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
273. You heard him.
Copy !req
274. I don't mind playing, Demon.
Copy !req
275. But you'll lose.
Copy !req
276. Aren't you cool?
Copy !req
277. Whatever. I don't care anymore.
Copy !req
278. I don't mind you playing a match,
Copy !req
279. but doesn't Kaiou forbid playing
other schools without permission?
Copy !req
280. Yes. If we lose, we're kicked off the team immediately.
Copy !req
281. Did you hear that, mister?
Copy !req
282. They're like the Shinsengumi.
Copy !req
283. You don't have Kondou Isami's permission?
Copy !req
284. I didn't even tell Hijikata I was coming.
Copy !req
285. So you're prepared to commit ritual suicide.
Copy !req
286. Okay, Mr. Okita.
Copy !req
287. We'll gift you some of our time.
Copy !req
288. Wrap it up in fifteen minutes.
Copy !req
289. I want to finish up the rest of our regimen.
Copy !req
290. Got it.
Copy !req
291. Bring it on.
Copy !req
292. It's been two years and four
months since I played you, Smile.
Copy !req
293. Has it?
Copy !req
294. Time!
Copy !req
295. My record against you is 96 - 37.
Copy !req
296. I don't remember any of that.
Copy !req
297. Ready!
Copy !req
298. Don't get ahead of yourself just
because Kazama likes you a little bit.
Copy !req
299. Your winning streak comes from playing easy games against rank amateurs.
Copy !req
300. You're just a big fish in a small pond.
Copy !req
301. Here we go.
Copy !req
302. One-love!
Copy !req
303. I can see you've improved a little, Smile.
Copy !req
304. That guy's not bad. He returned Tsukimoto's third shot!
Copy !req
305. That's Kaiou for you.
Copy !req
306. Love-two!
Copy !req
307. Love-three!
Copy !req
308. Four-love!
Copy !req
309. Eleven-one!
Copy !req
310. Game goes to Tsukimoto!
Copy !req
311. Smile, you bastard...
Copy !req
312. Don't be fooled by simple spin like that.
Copy !req
313. Moron.
Copy !req
314. Hey, Demon.
Copy !req
315. Don't hit Smile.
Copy !req
316. But, Peco... this guy sucks.
Copy !req
317. He doesn't get any better.
Copy !req
318. The right?
Copy !req
319. Out!
Copy !req
320. Two-eleven!
Copy !req
321. Game goes to Tsukimoto.
Copy !req
322. Damn it.
Copy !req
323. I can't predict his shots at all.
Copy !req
324. I can't throw him off, either.
Copy !req
325. He returns my knuckleballs with ease.
Copy !req
326. Tsukimoto up two games to love!
Copy !req
327. I feel like I'm playing a college student or a pro.
Copy !req
328. Where did I go wrong?
Copy !req
329. What tripped me up?
Copy !req
330. That's some astigmatism you've got, Manabu.
Copy !req
331. Where did I go wrong?
Copy !req
332. Focus on distant objects when your eyes get tired.
Copy !req
333. What tripped me up?
Copy !req
334. Unlike me, he's got good eyes.
Copy !req
335. Look at that, Manabu.
Copy !req
336. No, Manabu.
Copy !req
337. That's a choo-choo, not a vroom-vroom.
Copy !req
338. Where did I go wrong?
Copy !req
339. Once I'm out of high school, I'm going to Europe.
Copy !req
340. Sakuma's playing our first match?
Copy !req
341. I have high hopes for him.
Copy !req
342. What tripped me up?
Copy !req
343. Come on, Manabu.
Copy !req
344. What...
Copy !req
345. can you see?
Copy !req
346. Straight? No!
Copy !req
347. Five-love!
Copy !req
348. Damn it!
Copy !req
349. Why you? Why?
Copy !req
350. I worked hard!
Copy !req
351. Ten! No, a hundred! A thousand times harder than you!
Copy !req
352. All so that Kazama would acknowledge my skill!
Copy !req
353. All so I could beat Peco!
Copy !req
354. From dawn until dusk, my only thoughts were of table tennis!
Copy !req
355. I've given everything I had to table tennis!
Copy !req
356. So why—
Copy !req
357. Because you haven't got a talent for table tennis, Demon.
Copy !req
358. That's all there is to it.
Copy !req
359. It's nothing to shout about.
Copy !req
360. Bullshit.
Copy !req
361. That can't be...
Copy !req
362. If you're not going to keep playing, leave.
Copy !req
363. I don't have time for this.
Copy !req
364. It can't be. That's not possible...
Copy !req
365. So, there are different theories about how Bruce Lee died—
Copy !req
366. That hurt, brat! Where are you looki—
Copy !req
367. Shut up!
Copy !req
368. Where do I have to look for you to praise me, huh?
Copy !req
369. Answer me! Come on!
Copy !req
370. Where should I look when I'm walking?
Copy !req
371. Sorry, partner.
Copy !req
372. Rest in peace, yeah?
Copy !req
373. A red sun stares at me
Copy !req
374. The world goes blurry when I yawn
Copy !req
375. My wishes fluctuate like a metronome
Copy !req
376. Everything tells me this is the end
Copy !req
377. I do have some dreams, you know
Copy !req
378. I do have some dreams, you know
Copy !req
379. Sometimes we breathe
Copy !req
380. Sometimes we breathe
Copy !req
381. and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone
Copy !req
382. and just seem to inhale the smoke of someone
Copy !req
383. somewhere out of sight
Copy !req
384. somewhere out of sight
Copy !req
385. Then all our great energy just seems to melt away
Copy !req
386. Then all our great energy just seems to melt away
Copy !req
387. I don't understand this wonderland
Copy !req
388. I don't understand this wonderland
Copy !req
389. I won't get wet even if it rains
Copy !req
390. I won't get wet even if it rains
Copy !req
391. This is a wonderland
Copy !req
392. This is a wonderland
Copy !req
393. Once I've made it through this long tunnel
Copy !req
394. I'm sure that someone will kiss me
Copy !req
395. I'm sure that someone will kiss me
Copy !req
