1
00:00:01,713 --> 00:00:03,882
It's been about a month
since Chinatsu Senpai
2
00:00:03,966 --> 00:00:05,551
started living with us.
3
00:00:13,892 --> 00:00:14,810
Good morning.
4
00:00:16,395 --> 00:00:20,274
My eyes have gotten used
to her dazzling aura.
5
00:00:21,692 --> 00:00:24,319
I washed your gym uniform,
so don't forget to take it.
6
00:00:24,403 --> 00:00:27,281
I used to hit the snooze button
about five times,
7
00:00:27,364 --> 00:00:29,908
but lately, I've been stopping
after about two.
8
00:00:37,374 --> 00:00:39,001
Having a crush
9
00:00:39,835 --> 00:00:41,086
is so wonderful!
10
00:00:47,342 --> 00:00:50,596
BLUE BOX
11
00:02:07,130 --> 00:02:13,053
BLUE BOX
12
00:02:13,136 --> 00:02:16,056
EPISODE 4
IF HE WINS
13
00:02:18,850 --> 00:02:20,686
Thank you for the meal.
14
00:02:20,769 --> 00:02:22,062
You have your match tomorrow.
15
00:02:22,145 --> 00:02:23,605
Yup!
16
00:02:23,689 --> 00:02:25,274
You're in a good mood.
17
00:02:25,357 --> 00:02:28,360
I guess I'm just fulfilled every day.
18
00:02:28,443 --> 00:02:30,487
You seem to have settled down quickly.
19
00:02:31,905 --> 00:02:35,242
You know, a boy and a girl,
living under the same roof,
20
00:02:35,325 --> 00:02:37,577
I'm surprised nothing's happened so far.
21
00:02:37,661 --> 00:02:39,079
That's because...
22
00:02:41,164 --> 00:02:42,582
CHINATSU KANO
SORRY TO BOTHER YOU!
23
00:02:42,666 --> 00:02:44,584
Chinatsu Senpai!
24
00:02:44,668 --> 00:02:46,586
DID YOU TAKE MY UNIFORM BY ACCIDENT?
25
00:02:48,672 --> 00:02:50,090
KANO
26
00:02:53,176 --> 00:02:54,845
I HAVE GYM FIFTH PERIOD...
27
00:02:55,554 --> 00:02:56,847
I have to take this to her!
28
00:02:58,265 --> 00:02:59,307
I'LL BRING IT TO YOU!
29
00:02:59,391 --> 00:03:00,600
{\an8}WHERE SHOULD WE MEET?
30
00:03:00,684 --> 00:03:03,061
{\an8}SOMEWHERE SECLUDED WOULD BE BEST, RIGHT?
31
00:03:03,145 --> 00:03:05,188
{\an8}HOW ABOUT THE AV ROOM?
32
00:03:05,272 --> 00:03:06,189
{\an8}ROGER THAT
33
00:03:06,273 --> 00:03:08,775
I was in such a rush this morning.
34
00:03:08,859 --> 00:03:11,528
We can't have anyone see us.
35
00:03:11,611 --> 00:03:13,405
I need to do this quickly.
36
00:03:13,488 --> 00:03:14,781
Yo, Taiki.
37
00:03:17,784 --> 00:03:19,202
Why are you avoiding me?
38
00:03:19,286 --> 00:03:21,329
It's not what you think.
39
00:03:21,413 --> 00:03:23,081
This is perfect.
40
00:03:23,165 --> 00:03:24,458
Come practice with me.
41
00:03:24,541 --> 00:03:27,836
Sorry! I'll make it up after school!
42
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,379
He ran away.
43
00:03:30,047 --> 00:03:31,965
AV ROOM
44
00:03:34,092 --> 00:03:36,303
This room is usually empty.
45
00:03:37,804 --> 00:03:38,722
Taiki.
46
00:03:39,348 --> 00:03:41,224
Hina! What are you doing here?
47
00:03:41,308 --> 00:03:42,476
RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS MEETING
48
00:03:42,559 --> 00:03:44,978
We're holding a rhythmic gymnastics
team meeting.
49
00:03:45,062 --> 00:03:46,229
What?
50
00:03:46,855 --> 00:03:47,981
You need something?
51
00:03:48,065 --> 00:03:49,566
Not particularly.
52
00:03:52,819 --> 00:03:54,738
- You dropped--
- Stop!
53
00:03:54,821 --> 00:03:56,239
{\an8}KANO
54
00:03:56,323 --> 00:03:58,742
Listen, don't touch that.
55
00:03:58,825 --> 00:04:00,243
Why not?
56
00:04:00,327 --> 00:04:01,536
Hey.
57
00:04:01,620 --> 00:04:02,746
Hey, hey.
58
00:04:04,331 --> 00:04:06,708
Well, to be honest,
59
00:04:06,792 --> 00:04:09,503
I haven't washed that since last summer.
60
00:04:11,421 --> 00:04:13,507
- Get out of here.
- Okay.
61
00:04:15,300 --> 00:04:16,510
Hold on, Taiki.
62
00:04:17,427 --> 00:04:20,097
You were wearing your gym uniform
in gym class.
63
00:04:20,764 --> 00:04:23,100
If you haven't washed it
since junior high...
64
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,770
The truth is, I've been wearing it
without ever washing it.
65
00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:29,648
Be gone.
66
00:04:29,731 --> 00:04:30,774
Okay.
67
00:04:31,441 --> 00:04:33,026
Honestly.
68
00:04:34,319 --> 00:04:36,571
Why are there people everywhere?
69
00:04:38,073 --> 00:04:40,867
At this rate, Chinatsu Senpai
will have to wear my uniform.
70
00:04:40,951 --> 00:04:41,952
INOMATA
71
00:04:42,786 --> 00:04:44,121
There's no time left.
72
00:04:44,204 --> 00:04:45,205
{\an8}CHINATSU KANO
NEW MESSAGE
73
00:04:46,540 --> 00:04:49,459
{\an8}"Come to the west side of the roof"?
74
00:04:49,543 --> 00:04:51,211
NO TRESPASSING
75
00:05:02,681 --> 00:05:03,849
You're here.
76
00:05:04,766 --> 00:05:07,352
Thank goodness we were able to meet up.
77
00:05:07,436 --> 00:05:09,688
How do you have a key to the roof?
78
00:05:09,771 --> 00:05:12,023
I borrowed it from my friend
in the astronomy club.
79
00:05:13,150 --> 00:05:14,359
Here.
80
00:05:14,443 --> 00:05:16,820
Thank you. You're a lifesaver.
81
00:05:17,696 --> 00:05:20,365
So this is what Chinatsu Senpai
is like at school.
82
00:05:22,701 --> 00:05:23,869
It's nothing.
83
00:05:25,912 --> 00:05:29,666
Crap! You have to hurry,
or you'll be late!
84
00:05:29,749 --> 00:05:31,877
What are you doing?
85
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,005
I thought I'd change here
because there's no time.
86
00:05:35,088 --> 00:05:36,131
Here?
87
00:05:36,214 --> 00:05:37,841
Don't worry.
88
00:05:37,924 --> 00:05:40,635
Girls in athletics learn
to change anywhere.
89
00:05:40,719 --> 00:05:42,262
We're trained to.
90
00:05:42,345 --> 00:05:44,431
That's not the issue!
91
00:05:45,223 --> 00:05:47,642
I'll make sure nobody comes up here.
92
00:05:47,726 --> 00:05:48,643
Sorry.
93
00:05:49,436 --> 00:05:52,522
I've said this before,
but she's way too defenseless.
94
00:05:52,606 --> 00:05:56,193
Does she not understand how cute she is?
95
00:05:58,737 --> 00:06:00,238
Crap!
96
00:06:00,322 --> 00:06:03,992
These sounds are making me imagine things!
97
00:06:04,492 --> 00:06:06,912
- For real?
- So then...
98
00:06:16,046 --> 00:06:16,922
All done.
99
00:06:17,797 --> 00:06:18,757
You okay?
100
00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:21,718
Ten more seconds,
and I would've been a goner.
101
00:06:23,094 --> 00:06:24,095
Ready to go?
102
00:06:24,179 --> 00:06:25,972
You go on ahead.
103
00:06:26,056 --> 00:06:27,057
Okay.
104
00:06:29,434 --> 00:06:30,685
Thanks.
105
00:06:34,189 --> 00:06:37,025
Getting changed right in front of me...
106
00:06:38,485 --> 00:06:41,488
That must mean
she doesn't view me as a guy.
107
00:06:44,241 --> 00:06:47,452
I need to work on that.
108
00:06:48,203 --> 00:06:49,246
Good practice.
109
00:06:49,329 --> 00:06:51,039
Did someone grab the shuttlecocks?
110
00:06:51,122 --> 00:06:53,208
What time tomorrow?
111
00:06:53,833 --> 00:06:54,834
Taiki!
112
00:06:56,294 --> 00:06:58,338
You've got regional prelims tomorrow?
113
00:06:59,214 --> 00:07:02,634
Make sure you don't get all worked up
and embarrass yourself.
114
00:07:02,717 --> 00:07:04,386
Mind your business!
115
00:07:06,012 --> 00:07:08,348
I'll make sure Kyo films it.
116
00:07:09,683 --> 00:07:11,434
So I've been wondering...
117
00:07:11,518 --> 00:07:12,519
Not even a little.
118
00:07:12,602 --> 00:07:13,603
That right?
119
00:07:14,396 --> 00:07:17,190
She's right, though. Don't get worked up.
120
00:07:17,274 --> 00:07:20,110
You have me for doubles,
so that's a guaranteed win.
121
00:07:20,193 --> 00:07:22,362
He's so confident!
122
00:07:22,445 --> 00:07:26,283
You just need to finish in the top 16
in the singles next week.
123
00:07:26,366 --> 00:07:27,826
I'll be fine!
124
00:07:27,909 --> 00:07:30,036
I'm a lot better than before.
125
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,038
I'll even make it
to the top eight or four.
126
00:07:32,664 --> 00:07:35,625
Well, just so you know,
you forgot your racket bag.
127
00:07:37,252 --> 00:07:39,045
Why didn't you mention it earlier?
128
00:07:39,129 --> 00:07:40,714
I wondered when you'd notice.
129
00:07:40,797 --> 00:07:42,090
I'll be right back!
130
00:07:45,218 --> 00:07:47,971
Taiki! Make sure you pack your uniform!
131
00:07:48,054 --> 00:07:51,558
And don't forget your shoes and racket!
132
00:07:51,641 --> 00:07:52,726
They're already packed.
133
00:07:52,809 --> 00:07:58,231
Seeing Mom like this,
I understand where I get it from.
134
00:07:58,315 --> 00:08:00,233
How many towels do you need? Eight?
135
00:08:00,317 --> 00:08:01,818
I don't need any!
136
00:08:02,444 --> 00:08:04,279
I've already packed everything I need.
137
00:08:04,362 --> 00:08:05,238
Really?
138
00:08:12,787 --> 00:08:14,247
Taiki!
139
00:08:15,582 --> 00:08:17,584
- Laundry!
- Gimme a towel!
140
00:08:17,667 --> 00:08:19,044
Here!
141
00:08:19,127 --> 00:08:20,503
Hurry!
142
00:08:22,213 --> 00:08:24,090
{\an8}Get it together.
143
00:08:24,174 --> 00:08:28,011
{\an8}I know it's your first high school match,
but it's not your first rodeo.
144
00:08:28,595 --> 00:08:30,347
{\an8}Why are you so nervous?
145
00:08:30,430 --> 00:08:31,765
{\an8}Calm down.
146
00:08:31,848 --> 00:08:35,018
{\an8}Don't go out there and lose
because of some stupid mistake.
147
00:08:35,852 --> 00:08:39,773
There's nothing to feel pressured about.
148
00:08:45,820 --> 00:08:47,906
Exercise to clear the mind!
149
00:08:47,989 --> 00:08:49,532
You're going to nationals, right?
150
00:08:49,616 --> 00:08:50,784
Get it together!
151
00:08:53,036 --> 00:08:54,663
You're practicing this late?
152
00:08:56,289 --> 00:08:57,832
Chinatsu Senpai.
153
00:08:59,959 --> 00:09:02,545
I decided to do some practice swings
to move my body.
154
00:09:03,922 --> 00:09:04,923
Taiki.
155
00:09:05,006 --> 00:09:06,549
Your shirt's inside out.
156
00:09:10,345 --> 00:09:12,806
Okay, I might not be fine.
157
00:09:22,357 --> 00:09:23,566
Sorry!
158
00:09:25,235 --> 00:09:29,030
She didn't seem to care
about changing in front of me.
159
00:09:29,572 --> 00:09:31,574
But this she minds.
160
00:09:32,450 --> 00:09:33,576
Taiki.
161
00:09:33,660 --> 00:09:34,828
Yes?
162
00:09:34,911 --> 00:09:37,080
I didn't know you had a six-pack.
163
00:09:37,789 --> 00:09:38,832
That's what it was?
164
00:09:39,624 --> 00:09:42,001
I guess you do work out a lot.
165
00:09:42,711 --> 00:09:43,586
That reminds me.
166
00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:46,840
Haryu said your body was coming along.
167
00:09:48,258 --> 00:09:52,053
Just because I got a little muscle
doesn't make me better at badminton.
168
00:09:54,347 --> 00:09:55,890
Wow, talk about humble.
169
00:10:00,270 --> 00:10:01,187
Taiki.
170
00:10:02,981 --> 00:10:04,232
What is it?
171
00:10:06,192 --> 00:10:07,485
Hyakue.
172
00:10:08,987 --> 00:10:10,238
What?
173
00:10:10,321 --> 00:10:12,365
It's a pressure point on your head.
174
00:10:12,449 --> 00:10:14,242
It can help you relax.
175
00:10:14,826 --> 00:10:17,412
There's no point in running around
the day before.
176
00:10:17,495 --> 00:10:19,664
You've already put in the hard work.
177
00:10:20,540 --> 00:10:24,419
So stop overthinking things
and go show them what you can do.
178
00:10:25,587 --> 00:10:26,629
Got it?
179
00:10:27,255 --> 00:10:28,214
Yeah.
180
00:10:29,632 --> 00:10:31,176
Okay, this pressure point
181
00:10:32,135 --> 00:10:33,511
really works.
182
00:10:35,472 --> 00:10:36,514
Besides,
183
00:10:38,099 --> 00:10:41,436
you still have next year
and the year after.
184
00:10:42,187 --> 00:10:43,438
The year after?
185
00:10:44,022 --> 00:10:45,899
But that's after you graduate.
186
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,903
You'll be even stronger than you are now.
187
00:10:49,986 --> 00:10:51,404
That's not good enough for me.
188
00:11:04,751 --> 00:11:05,710
Good night.
189
00:11:17,639 --> 00:11:18,765
Okay!
190
00:11:19,349 --> 00:11:20,558
Let's go!
191
00:11:21,476 --> 00:11:23,061
Looks like you got over your nerves.
192
00:11:24,395 --> 00:11:26,064
I don't have time to be nervous.
193
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:30,818
Well, good for you.
194
00:11:31,611 --> 00:11:35,073
The doubles matches are about to begin.
195
00:11:35,156 --> 00:11:36,074
ROUND 1
196
00:11:36,157 --> 00:11:37,325
Out!
197
00:11:37,408 --> 00:11:38,826
ROUND 3
198
00:11:38,910 --> 00:11:40,828
ADVANCED TO BEST 16
199
00:11:40,912 --> 00:11:42,664
- Huh?
- What?
200
00:11:42,747 --> 00:11:44,874
I mean, it's going so smoothly.
201
00:11:44,958 --> 00:11:47,502
Like we're not gonna
make it out of regional prelims.
202
00:11:47,585 --> 00:11:48,628
You have me, dummy.
203
00:11:49,212 --> 00:11:51,089
Please sign the match sheet.
204
00:11:52,090 --> 00:11:56,094
Although it's painfully clear
what you need to work on.
205
00:11:57,303 --> 00:11:59,722
He's right. These were real games
206
00:11:59,806 --> 00:12:03,768
and there were so many instances
where he covered me.
207
00:12:09,274 --> 00:12:10,608
He's so loud.
208
00:12:10,692 --> 00:12:12,860
Such a bold playstyle too.
209
00:12:15,238 --> 00:12:17,115
Or so I thought, but he's calculated.
210
00:12:17,865 --> 00:12:19,617
One more down.
211
00:12:20,952 --> 00:12:22,620
- Let's go.
- Okay.
212
00:12:23,454 --> 00:12:24,581
Harry Senpai?
213
00:12:26,374 --> 00:12:30,920
If it isn't the former KTS Junior member
Kengo Haryu.
214
00:12:31,004 --> 00:12:32,255
Sorry, wrong person.
215
00:12:32,338 --> 00:12:34,007
You crook!
216
00:12:36,342 --> 00:12:37,885
Do you know him?
217
00:12:37,969 --> 00:12:40,763
He used to be my doubles partner
in my junior days.
218
00:12:41,556 --> 00:12:44,267
Meet Shimotomi High's Shoichiro Kishi.
219
00:12:44,350 --> 00:12:47,061
He called you a crook.
220
00:12:47,145 --> 00:12:49,314
I have no idea why.
221
00:12:49,397 --> 00:12:52,025
That's because Harry Senpai
broke his promise.
222
00:12:52,108 --> 00:12:56,779
You said you'd give me
Chinatsu Kano's number!
223
00:12:56,863 --> 00:12:58,031
What?
224
00:12:58,114 --> 00:13:00,825
I said if you beat me.
225
00:13:00,908 --> 00:13:02,410
But I did.
226
00:13:02,493 --> 00:13:04,203
In an official match.
227
00:13:04,287 --> 00:13:07,457
Do you know Chinatsu Senpai?
228
00:13:08,166 --> 00:13:09,042
Yeah.
229
00:13:09,125 --> 00:13:13,796
How could I forget that fateful day
last year at Eimei's school festival?
230
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,049
SCHOOL FESTIVAL
231
00:13:17,342 --> 00:13:18,301
My wallet's gone!
232
00:13:18,384 --> 00:13:20,595
It was a limited edition!
233
00:13:20,678 --> 00:13:21,512
Excuse me!
234
00:13:32,649 --> 00:13:35,610
It was like my favorite idol
popped out of my wallet.
235
00:13:35,693 --> 00:13:36,861
What anime is that?
236
00:13:36,944 --> 00:13:38,154
Don't humor him.
237
00:13:39,364 --> 00:13:42,742
After that, I heard she was friends
with Harry Senpai,
238
00:13:42,825 --> 00:13:44,869
so I asked for an introduction.
239
00:13:44,952 --> 00:13:46,996
But he never came through.
240
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,081
Isn't he awful?
241
00:13:48,164 --> 00:13:50,249
You agree with me, right?
242
00:13:50,333 --> 00:13:52,293
Nice job, Haryu Senpai.
243
00:13:52,877 --> 00:13:55,505
Which is why today,
after I crush you in the doubles,
244
00:13:55,588 --> 00:13:57,882
you'd better introduce me to her!
245
00:13:58,883 --> 00:13:59,926
Kishi.
246
00:14:00,426 --> 00:14:04,347
I don't feel too well.
247
00:14:06,224 --> 00:14:07,892
I think I'm dying.
248
00:14:08,434 --> 00:14:10,937
Yokoyama!
249
00:14:11,437 --> 00:14:14,273
Lucky you already made it past
the prelims.
250
00:14:14,357 --> 00:14:15,358
Fine, then!
251
00:14:15,441 --> 00:14:18,027
We'll settle this at next week's singles!
252
00:14:18,111 --> 00:14:19,946
I'm not playing in that.
253
00:14:20,029 --> 00:14:23,032
When's your next official match, then?
254
00:14:23,116 --> 00:14:24,575
The prefectural qualifiers in June.
255
00:14:24,659 --> 00:14:25,994
June?
256
00:14:26,077 --> 00:14:27,912
I'll find a sub, and we can play now!
257
00:14:27,996 --> 00:14:29,872
- No way.
- I won't leave until you do!
258
00:14:29,956 --> 00:14:31,624
Okay, fine.
259
00:14:32,250 --> 00:14:36,129
I'll give you her number if you beat Taiki
in the singles next week.
260
00:14:37,922 --> 00:14:40,133
More accurately,
I'll ask her if it's okay.
261
00:14:40,216 --> 00:14:41,634
You can't just volunteer me!
262
00:14:41,718 --> 00:14:42,635
Taiki?
263
00:14:42,719 --> 00:14:44,429
My doubles partner over there.
264
00:14:51,728 --> 00:14:52,770
This is a lock!
265
00:14:54,313 --> 00:14:56,065
What should my first message be?
266
00:14:58,651 --> 00:14:59,944
Be careful.
267
00:15:00,028 --> 00:15:02,655
He's better than he looks.
268
00:15:05,742 --> 00:15:08,411
What a jerk!
269
00:15:10,872 --> 00:15:13,166
How did I get roped into this?
270
00:15:14,125 --> 00:15:18,504
I don't like the idea of Kishi getting
Chinatsu Senpai's number either.
271
00:15:19,630 --> 00:15:21,507
Doesn't mean he should just volunteer me.
272
00:15:21,591 --> 00:15:22,925
That's right.
273
00:15:23,009 --> 00:15:25,428
That's Chinatsu Senpai's voice.
274
00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:28,431
It feels a little awkward to see her now.
275
00:15:28,514 --> 00:15:31,976
I'm sure she didn't like
my attitude yesterday.
276
00:15:33,019 --> 00:15:36,939
I'm the one so hung up on going
to nationals this year.
277
00:15:37,023 --> 00:15:39,484
I'm so glad Taiki won.
278
00:15:39,567 --> 00:15:42,195
Well, he has been practicing hard.
279
00:15:42,278 --> 00:15:45,239
He swings his racket at home
instead of studying.
280
00:15:45,865 --> 00:15:47,241
So he'd better win.
281
00:15:47,825 --> 00:15:50,620
And I made tonkatsu
for him today to celebrate.
282
00:15:50,703 --> 00:15:52,789
It'd be awkward if he lost.
283
00:15:54,707 --> 00:15:57,210
Honestly, I was a little worried
284
00:15:57,293 --> 00:15:59,587
that he's pushing himself too hard.
285
00:16:00,338 --> 00:16:04,550
He's got two more years,
so what's the rush?
286
00:16:05,176 --> 00:16:06,010
Yes.
287
00:16:06,094 --> 00:16:08,846
I said that to him too.
288
00:16:08,930 --> 00:16:11,307
That he still has next year and the next.
289
00:16:11,390 --> 00:16:14,018
But then his attitude changed.
It was strange...
290
00:16:14,102 --> 00:16:15,019
Isn't he always?
291
00:16:15,103 --> 00:16:16,479
Shut up.
292
00:16:16,562 --> 00:16:19,023
No, I understand why he'd get mad.
293
00:16:19,107 --> 00:16:23,694
I mean, it's like I was saying
that he was free to lose this year.
294
00:16:23,778 --> 00:16:25,071
I only realized it after.
295
00:16:25,154 --> 00:16:26,280
That's true.
296
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,701
But I was just a little sad
about being reminded
297
00:16:30,785 --> 00:16:32,787
that I'm a year behind her.
298
00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:36,249
It's not like you meant it that way.
299
00:16:36,332 --> 00:16:37,542
Of course not!
300
00:16:37,625 --> 00:16:39,794
Then don't worry about it.
301
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,296
I know, but...
302
00:16:43,047 --> 00:16:48,803
Part of it was me realizing
how quickly this year has gone by.
303
00:16:48,886 --> 00:16:52,265
When I think that I only have a year left,
304
00:16:52,348 --> 00:16:55,810
I got a little envious of Taiki.
305
00:16:56,561 --> 00:16:58,855
I didn't say that to encourage him.
306
00:16:58,938 --> 00:17:01,816
I was just expressing my own insecurities.
307
00:17:01,899 --> 00:17:03,317
And I regret that.
308
00:17:04,986 --> 00:17:06,070
Chinatsu.
309
00:17:06,654 --> 00:17:08,406
You're such a nice girl.
310
00:17:09,448 --> 00:17:11,033
That's not...
311
00:17:11,117 --> 00:17:12,451
So pure!
312
00:17:13,327 --> 00:17:14,579
I'm back!
313
00:17:14,662 --> 00:17:16,581
Welcome home!
314
00:17:16,664 --> 00:17:18,457
Congrats.
315
00:17:18,541 --> 00:17:19,458
Thanks.
316
00:17:19,542 --> 00:17:21,586
You got a good doubles partner, huh?
317
00:17:21,669 --> 00:17:23,129
That's not all of it.
318
00:17:23,671 --> 00:17:24,589
Besides,
319
00:17:25,423 --> 00:17:27,258
I'll win my singles matches too!
320
00:17:27,341 --> 00:17:29,093
You don't have to yell.
321
00:17:31,637 --> 00:17:33,097
I'm going to put my stuff away.
322
00:17:33,181 --> 00:17:34,932
Such a busy boy.
323
00:17:35,558 --> 00:17:36,851
If she's feeling insecure,
324
00:17:37,894 --> 00:17:39,937
that's all the more reason I can't lose.
325
00:17:41,272 --> 00:17:45,443
Where does he get all that confidence?
326
00:17:46,444 --> 00:17:49,030
You honestly don't have to worry
about what you said.
327
00:17:49,113 --> 00:17:49,947
No.
328
00:17:51,199 --> 00:17:53,701
I could learn from his example.
329
00:18:01,459 --> 00:18:02,710
Good luck to you.
330
00:18:04,795 --> 00:18:06,005
Rock, paper, scissors!
331
00:18:06,088 --> 00:18:08,007
They're so fired up.
332
00:18:08,090 --> 00:18:10,218
They're only determining who serves first...
333
00:18:11,219 --> 00:18:14,722
Anyway, I heard you put some weird stakes
on this match.
334
00:18:14,805 --> 00:18:16,390
Don't worry.
335
00:18:16,474 --> 00:18:18,684
I won't tell him
if she doesn't want me to.
336
00:18:19,227 --> 00:18:22,104
Chinatsu Senpai
might be too nice to say no.
337
00:18:22,188 --> 00:18:25,316
Besides, I think Taiki's going to win.
338
00:18:25,399 --> 00:18:26,317
What?
339
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,986
Obviously, since I'm the one training him.
340
00:18:29,904 --> 00:18:32,990
In fact, if he loses,
I'll put him through hell.
341
00:18:33,074 --> 00:18:34,075
Shudder!
342
00:18:34,575 --> 00:18:35,534
GIVE YOUR ALL
343
00:18:35,618 --> 00:18:37,995
I'm glad I'm not his doubles partner.
344
00:18:38,621 --> 00:18:40,539
First game. Love-all.
345
00:18:40,623 --> 00:18:41,499
Play!
346
00:18:50,299 --> 00:18:54,220
Still, his smashes are powerful.
347
00:18:54,303 --> 00:18:56,764
He's good at putting his weight behind it.
348
00:18:56,847 --> 00:18:58,432
You can't just return them.
349
00:19:05,273 --> 00:19:06,565
There you are.
350
00:19:08,234 --> 00:19:09,318
What's up, ladies?
351
00:19:09,402 --> 00:19:11,028
What're you doing here?
352
00:19:11,112 --> 00:19:13,864
We had a practice game
against Kita High next door.
353
00:19:13,948 --> 00:19:16,200
We came to check out the tournament.
354
00:19:16,284 --> 00:19:17,827
Is anyone playing?
355
00:19:17,910 --> 00:19:19,203
My doubles partner.
356
00:19:20,496 --> 00:19:22,456
Oh, him? Let's cheer him on.
357
00:19:25,543 --> 00:19:27,878
Is it because we came?
358
00:19:27,962 --> 00:19:29,672
He can't get any attacks off.
359
00:19:29,755 --> 00:19:30,923
Are you one of those people
360
00:19:31,007 --> 00:19:34,468
who think figure skaters fail their jumps
when you watch?
361
00:19:35,136 --> 00:19:37,263
It's probably his strategy.
362
00:19:37,346 --> 00:19:38,472
His strategy?
363
00:19:38,556 --> 00:19:41,726
It takes time to get used to the speed
of someone's smashes.
364
00:19:41,809 --> 00:19:43,477
Taiki's slow at repositioning.
365
00:19:43,561 --> 00:19:47,481
So he's playing defensive at first
to tire out his opponent.
366
00:19:48,357 --> 00:19:51,736
If you look carefully,
his shots are keeping his opponent moving.
367
00:19:51,819 --> 00:19:54,822
The kid's gotten pretty smart.
368
00:19:54,905 --> 00:19:57,283
Match number 15...
369
00:19:57,366 --> 00:19:58,576
I should get going.
370
00:19:58,659 --> 00:19:59,744
Good luck.
371
00:20:01,412 --> 00:20:02,788
Not going to watch up close?
372
00:20:03,831 --> 00:20:05,082
I'm fine here.
373
00:20:05,166 --> 00:20:07,585
So, actually, I know your situation.
374
00:20:08,085 --> 00:20:09,670
Taiki told me.
375
00:20:10,212 --> 00:20:12,256
He said he trusts you.
376
00:20:16,260 --> 00:20:18,512
Okay, she is cute.
377
00:20:18,596 --> 00:20:21,974
There's something nerve-racking
about tournaments.
378
00:20:22,058 --> 00:20:25,061
Each shot feels heavier.
379
00:20:27,730 --> 00:20:28,981
Did you know?
380
00:20:29,065 --> 00:20:32,568
This game has your phone number
on the line.
381
00:20:34,111 --> 00:20:37,031
And just so you know,
Haryu Senpai's to blame.
382
00:20:37,114 --> 00:20:38,532
So take it up with him.
383
00:20:39,450 --> 00:20:41,786
It's just that Taiki
gets nothing for winning.
384
00:20:42,453 --> 00:20:43,746
So,
385
00:20:43,829 --> 00:20:47,291
would you take him to the aquarium
or something if he wins?
386
00:20:48,918 --> 00:20:52,588
We can't use the gym tomorrow anyways,
so there's no practice scheduled.
387
00:20:53,172 --> 00:20:54,048
Besides,
388
00:20:54,799 --> 00:20:58,052
you're part of the reason
he's so motivated.
389
00:20:58,135 --> 00:21:00,930
I doubt I have that much influence on him...
390
00:21:01,013 --> 00:21:02,056
Yeah, you do.
391
00:21:02,723 --> 00:21:06,811
She stayed behind in Japan
by herself to make the nationals!
392
00:21:06,894 --> 00:21:10,064
She practices first thing
in the morning! So will I!
393
00:21:10,147 --> 00:21:12,233
He's easily swayed.
394
00:21:13,651 --> 00:21:17,071
He's always been stubborn.
Once he makes up his mind, that's it.
395
00:21:17,947 --> 00:21:22,326
But even as a friend,
I can say he's been doing well lately.
396
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,831
The old him wouldn't have been able
to pick up those shots.
397
00:21:28,416 --> 00:21:29,708
I'm sure that part of it
398
00:21:30,292 --> 00:21:33,129
is because he has someone close
with the same goals
399
00:21:33,212 --> 00:21:36,841
to keep him disciplined
and motivate him to put in the effort.
400
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,052
So, if he's able to achieve
some good results,
401
00:21:40,136 --> 00:21:42,847
I think he deserves some kind of reward.
402
00:21:53,357 --> 00:21:54,442
Yes!
403
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,361
He's fired up.
404
00:21:57,445 --> 00:21:58,487
Okay.
405
00:22:00,281 --> 00:22:04,160
If Taiki wins, we'll go to the aquarium.
406
00:23:31,038 --> 00:23:36,043
