[00:17] Raido
    The athletics festival is coming up, huh?
[00:25] Raido
    Would you like some help?
[00:27] Old man
    Oh, you're a lifesaver.
[00:36] Aharen
    That was so cool, Raido-kun.
[00:38] Raido
    Nah, it was no big deal.

    Episode Three The Athletics Festival, Huh?
[02:27] Aharen
    Raido-kun...
[02:31] BG Girls (AD libbed)
    No, I didn't do mine.
[02:33] BG Girls (AD libbed)
    It's so impossible.
[02:33] Raido
    Um, Aharen-san? I'd kinda prefer
    you walking next to me like usual.
[02:39] Raido
    Oh, I get it...
[02:40] Raido
    Aharen-san suddenly started
    clinging to my back.
[02:44] Raido
    I know exactly what this must mean.
[02:47] Raido
    It's my bod!
[02:49] Raido
    By helping someone,
    I've grown as a human being.
[02:52] Raido
    She must want to feel the physical embodiment
[02:54] Raido
    of how big I've figuratively
    gotten for herself.
[02:56] Raido
    It's an expression of her feelings.
[02:59] Raido
    And I can't disappoint her.
[03:01] Raido
    I need to upgrade helping people
    from a posterior priority
[03:04] Raido
    so that I can see those rosy cheeks
    without butting heads with anyone...
[03:08] Raido
    and show off how broad these shoulders are!
[03:16] Students
    Okay... Careful on that end.
[03:16] Students
    Whoa there...
[03:18] Raido
    Allow me to help!
[03:22] Students
    Okay...
[03:23] Students
    Easy does it...

    No one else on the roof today, huh?
[04:08] Aharen
    No one else is around...
[04:16] Raido
    Aharen-san?
[04:21] Raido
    Aharen-san has suddenly started going for
    my butt like she's going to pants me!
[04:26] Raido
    This could only mean...
[04:27] Raido
    a spanking!
[04:29] Raido
    Doing too much for others
    can become a form of self-harm.
[04:32] Raido
    Aharen-san is trying to warn me
    against that sort of thing!
[04:36] Raido
    She's assuming the spanking position!
[04:39] Raido
    The only way out of this is...
[04:41] Raido
    No. I shouldn't.
[04:43] Raido
    It's possible that, given my tunnel vision,
[04:45] Raido
    Aharen-san has been cleaning up
    behind me without me noticing.
[04:49] Raido
    I should accept my punishment!
[05:08] Raido
    Thank you, Aharen-san.
[05:10] Raido
    I'm sorry for being such a butthead
    and not realizing
[05:13] Raido
    how I was making you feel,
    like some kind of bum.
[05:16] Raido
    No more making an ass out of myself.
    I'm going to take better care of myself
[05:20] Raido
    and make sure to take better care of you too.
[05:25] Aharen
    Thank you. Just be careful.
[05:32] Raido
    Wh-What's wrong, Aharen-san?
[06:03] Riku
    I couldn't pass him...
[06:05] Raido
    Looks like our anchor
     for the inter-class relay
[06:07] Raido
    is going to be you, Ishikawa.
[06:11] Raido
    You were pretty fast too, Tamanaha-san.
[06:13] Riku
    Thanks.
[06:14] Riku
    I practiced pretty hard, after all!
[06:17] Riku
    They say that the fastest runners
    become the most popular!
[06:24] Raido
    Aharen-san is shaking?
[06:26] Raido
    Could it be... with rage?!
[06:29] Raido
    Is she trembling with self-loathing
    after losing the anchor position?
[06:35] Raido
    Was Aharen-san really
    that confident in her speed?
[06:39] Aharen
    I'm no good at relay races.
[06:43] Aharen
    Because I'm slow...
[06:45] Aharen
    And I'm scared of dragging everyone else down.
[06:50] Raido
    That's okay. Even if someone's slow,
    no one else is worried about it.
[06:55] Ishikawa
    He's right, Aharen-san.
[06:58] Ishikawa
    You've got me, Oshiro-san,
    and even Tamanaha-san.
[07:01] Ishikawa
    There's nothing to worry about.
[07:02] Oshiro
    We'll be just fine. You can leave it to us.
[07:05] Riku
    Aha-chan, with me on the team,
    we're bound to take first place!
[07:13] Aharen
    Everyone said it'd be okay,
[07:16] Aharen
    but I still want to get as fast as I can,
    so could you coach me?
[07:19] Raido
    Sure, of course.
[07:21] Raido
    That said, we don't have a lot of time,
[07:23] Raido
    so let's start by learning
    how to pass the baton.
[07:26] Raido
    Broadly speaking, there's the
    overhand and underhand approach.
[07:28] Sign
    Underhand Pass
[07:28] Sign
    Overhand Pass
[07:31] Raido
    It takes a bit more practice,
[07:33] Raido
    but I say go underhand
    because it's easier to take off
[07:35] Raido
    and harder to drop the baton.
[07:38] Raido
    So I've asked the classmates
    you'll be receiving the baton from
[07:41] Raido
    and you'll be passing the baton to
    to join us today.
[07:45] Raido
    Next, there's the matter
     of your running speed...
[07:49] Raido
    However, there's a kind of training that can
    yield results, even with a tiny window.
[07:57] Raido
    Now let's talk form.
    Try to run with your back straight.
[08:01] Raido
    Then your arms.
[08:03] Raido
    Really get those pumping
     at a 90 degree angle.
[08:07] Raido
    And with your feet, try to be conscious
    of keeping your toes up.
[08:12] Raido
    Let's keep training with these points in mind.
[08:49] Raido
    That was great, Aharen-san.
[08:52] Raido
    Your time has improved a lot!
[09:00] Raido
    Hey, Aharen-san... I can't breathe...
[09:03] Aharen
    Sorry. I'm just so happy.
[09:07] Aharen
    I'm having fun running
    for the first time because of you.
[09:12] Aharen
    Thank you.
[09:16] Raido
    It's all because you worked so hard.
[09:19] Raido
    Let's keep it up.
[09:22] Sato
    Aharen-san! Raido-kun!
[09:24] Sato
    Bad news! It's Ishikawa-kun!
[09:28] ---
    Hakukaren Hospital
[09:31] Ishikawa
    Sorry. I got hurt during club.
[09:35] Sato
    Are you okay?
[09:36] Ishikawa
    It's just a sprain. Nothing's broken.
[09:39] Ishikawa
    They said I should be fine
    if I stay off it for a week.
[09:41] Sato
    A week? But the athletics
    festival is this week...
[09:46] Ishikawa
    Yeah, sorry. I won't be able to run.
[09:49] Oshiro
    Then we're gonna be in trouble
    for the relay race.
[09:54] Aharen
    Um...
[09:56] Aharen
    Should I stay home the day
     of the athletics festival?
[09:59] Aharen
    That way, someone else can fill in for me.
[10:03] Aharen
    Because I'm the slowest, I mean...
[10:07] Raido
    Aharen-san.
[10:09] Raido
    You don't have to worry about
    who's slowest or being a problem.
[10:13] Aharen
    But... I'm scared we might lose
    because of me.
[10:19] Raido
    It's okay. Even if we do lose, no one's
    going to blame you or be mad about it.
[10:26] Higa
    That's right.
[10:27] Higa
    Friends help each other out
    when they're in need, don't they?
[10:30] Friend A
    Even if we lose, it's no one's fault!
[10:33] Friend B
    We're not gonna let you guys
    steal all the spotlight!
[10:36] Friend C?
    Ishikawa, you just focus on getting better!
[10:39] Aharen
    Everyone... thank you.
[10:42] Higa
    Don't sweat it.
[10:44] Sato
    But who's going to be our new anchor?
[10:48] Ishikawa
    About that... I've been thinking.
[10:51] Ishikawa
    Could you do it, Raido?

[11:24] Announcer

    inter-class relay!
[11:29] Miyahira
    On your marks...
[11:32] Miyahira
    Set...
[11:39] Crowd [adlib]
    You'd better not lose!
[11:42] (Flashback) Ishikawa
    Okay, Raido.
[11:43] (Flashback) Ishikawa
    I'm counting on you to anchor in my place.
[11:46] (Flashback) Raido
    Right.
[11:47] (Flashback) Friend A
    We're gonna need to rethink
    the order of runners, then.
[11:55] (Flashback) Raido
    Guys, I have a suggestion.
[11:59] Announcer
    Tamanaha-san, Class B's third runner,
[12:01] Announcer
    has passed three runners in one fell swoop!
[12:03] Announcer
    This puts her class in third place!
[12:05] Announcer
    She's on the verge of taking second,
    but it's nearly time to pass the baton!
[12:10] Riku
    Aha-chan!
[12:16] Miyahira
    They did it again.
[12:18] Tobaru
    Did what?
[12:19] Miyahira
    Every runner from Class B
    has used an underhand pass.
[12:24] Miyahira
    And really smoothly!
[12:26] Miyahira
    They must've practiced a lot.
[12:29] Raido
    The handoff went well.
[12:31] Raido
    You've got this, Aharen-san!
[12:36] (Flashback) Raido
    Okay.
[12:38] (Flashback) Raido
    That's enough practice.
[12:40] (Flashback) Aharen
    Thank you, Raido-kun.
[12:43] (Flashback) Aharen
    I won't suggest sitting out
     the athletics festival anymore.
[12:47] (Flashback) Aharen
    I'm going... to do my best.
[13:12] Raido
    You okay?
[13:14] Aharen
    I couldn't... I couldn't pass anyone.
[13:18] Aharen
    But...
[13:20] Aharen
    No one... No one passed me either.
[13:28] Announcer
    Okay, we're entering the final half!
    Our last runners until the anchors!
[13:32] Announcer
    And Oshiro-san from Class B
    is really upping the pace!
[13:34] Announcer
    Class B is now in second place!
[13:38] Oshiro
    She's fast...
[13:40] Oshiro
    I can't catch her.
[13:46] Announcer
    The batons are now with the anchors!
[13:48] Announcer
    Class A is in first
    with Class B on their tail!
[13:51] Aharen
    Raido-kun...
[13:56] Raido
    He's their anchor for a reason.
    Talk about fast!
[13:59] Raido
    But for everyone who helped us...
[14:02] Raido
    For Ishikawa, who trusted this job to me...
[14:06] Raido
    And for Aharen-san, who's tried so hard...
[14:14] Raido
    I... don't want...
[14:20] Raido
    to lose!
[14:34] Class
    All right!
[14:35] Class
    Yes!
[14:38] Miyahira
    Congratulations, Momo-chan.
[14:41] Tobaru
    You should save that for the students.
[14:44] Tobaru
    If I go to them, I'm going to be
    confronted with you-know-what.
[14:48] Tobaru
    The smart move is to stay put.
[14:51] Tobaru
    H-Hold on, Miya-chan-sensei?!
[14:55] Sato
    Tobaru-sensei! We did it!
[14:59] Tobaru
    Athletics festival afterglow!
[15:01] Sign
    Afterglow
[15:04] Miyahira
    Momo-chan?!
[15:09] Oshiro
    Ishikawa-kun!
[15:13] Oshiro
    I saw you from down below.
[15:15] Ishikawa
    Raido actually pulled it off.
[15:18] Ishikawa
    Just like I figured.
    I knew he had it in him.
[15:25] Ishikawa
    I was really hoping to show off
    by snagging first place as the anchor, too.
[15:30] Ishikawa
    This always happens when it matters.
[15:33] Ishikawa
    How lame...
[15:35] Oshiro
    I-Ishikawa-kun... you're not lame.
[15:40] Oshiro
    I saw you.
[15:43] Oshiro
    How you kept running
    even after practice was over.
[15:45] Ishikawa
    Wow, you saw that, huh?
[15:48] Ishikawa
    Fat lot of good it did me,
    considering I got injured anyway.
[15:51] Ishikawa
    Talk about embarrassing.
[15:53] Oshiro
    You shouldn't be embarrassed.
[15:55] Oshiro
    I know that might not mean much
    coming from me, but...
[16:05] Ishikawa
    I appreciate it.
[16:10] Riku
    Feeling kind of awkward here...
[16:12] Riku
    All this athletic festival camaraderie's
    made it even harder for me to squeeze in.
[16:19] (Flashback) Friend A
    Ishikawa-kun was hurt and hospitalized!
[16:21] (Flashback) Friend B
    What?!
[16:22] (Flashback) Friend C
    Let's go!

    Don't

    Visit him...?
[16:23] Sign
    Go
[16:25] Riku

    Oh, Tamanaha-san?
[16:28] (Flashback) Friend A
    You came too?
[16:29] (Flashback) Friend B
    I didn't realize you knew him that well.

    Go
[16:32] Sign
    Visit him...?
[16:32] Sign
    Don't
[16:32] Riku
    No!
[16:34] Riku
    The whole vibe with everyone
    has changed since that day.
[16:35] Class(ad)
    Hooray! Hooray!
[16:39] Riku
    Am I going to make it in this class...?
[16:43] Riku
    No, I can't think like that! No way!
[16:46] Riku
    There's bound to be someone else
    who doesn't fit in other than me!
[16:50] Ishikawa
    Tamanaha-san.
[16:52] Ishikawa
    Nice race!
[16:53] Ishikawa
    It's great we won, huh?
[16:55] Riku
    Yeah, it is.
[16:58] Riku
    Wasn't his name...

[17:06] Riku
    Ishikawa-kun, as in the guy who
    got hurt and was in the hospital?
[17:11] Riku
    No way...
[17:12] Riku
    Is he here to chew me out
    for not coming to visit him?!
[17:16] Riku
    If I cross one of the popular kids like him...
[17:20] Ishikawa
    Tamanaha s, apparently.
[17:23] Female Student
    Ew, that's awful.
[17:25] Riku
    He'll spread bad rumors about me!
[17:27] Riku
    They'll spread through the class like fire,
[17:30] Riku
    making me an outcast in no time!
[17:33] Ishikawa
    Tamanaha-san?
[17:36] Riku
    I-I'm so sorry I didn't
    come visit you, Ishikawa-kun!
[17:40] Riku
    Please forgive me!
[17:42] Riku
    Please don't exclude me!
[17:45] Ishikawa
    Visit me?
[17:46] Ishikawa
    Aw, you don't have to worry about that.
[17:50] Riku
    Really?
[17:51] Ishikawa
    Yeah. More importantly, you were really fast!
[17:55] Ishikawa
    Passing three runners
    like that was impressive.
[17:57] Riku
    You saw me run?
[18:00] Ishikawa
    Yeah, of course.
[18:04] Riku
    Ishikawa-kun!
[18:06] Riku
    You're a total sweetheart!
[18:13] Riku
    With our big break coming to an end...
[18:17] Riku
    I may have left the house to avoid
    loafing it up the entire time,
[18:22] Riku
    but it's not like I had anything in mind.

    Aha-chan!
[18:32] Riku
    Whatcha doin'?
[18:34] Ren
    D-Do I know you, miss?
[18:40] Riku
    What? What's going on here?
[18:43] Riku
    Actually, Aha-chan seems
    kind of different from usual...
[18:46] Riku
    Wait, don't tell me...
[18:48] Riku
    I got the wrong person?!
[18:50] Riku
    U-Um, sorry, uh...
[18:54] (Flashback) Aharen
    This is my classmate from elementary school.
    She transferred recently.
[18:59] Ren
    Riku-san!
[19:01] Riku
    How do you know who I am?
[19:04] Ren
    Reina-neenee told me!
[19:07] Riku
    "Reina-neenee"?
[19:09] Ren
    I'm her little brother, Ren.
[19:12] Shirorin
    Shirorin!
[19:14] Riku
    You really don't mind splitting this with me?
[19:17] Ren
    Sure.
[19:17] Ren
    I always feel full after eating one,
    and then I have trouble with dinner.
[19:22] Ren
    I'm so glad I ran into you,
    Riku-neenee! Thanks a ton.
[19:27] Riku
    I've made friends with her little brother!
[19:29] Riku
    If this keeps up, soon enough...
[19:32] Riku
    I can be friends with the whole family!
[19:34] Riku
    That'll make me and Aha-chan's
    friendship even more secure!
[19:37] Riku
    All righty!
[19:38] Riku
    Say, little bro, you got anything on your mind?
[19:41] Riku
    I'd be happy to lend an ear.
[19:44] Ren
    Well...
[19:46] Riku
    Grade schooler problems? Piece of cake!
[19:50] Ren
    Oh, I know.
[19:52] Ren
    The other day, we got
    a transfer student from overseas.
[19:56] Ren
    He's not very good at Japanese yet,
    and he's having trouble fitting in.
[20:02] Ren
    But I invited him to play soccer the other day
[20:05] Ren
    and he seemed to have a good time...
[20:09] Ren
    Do you think I did the right thing?
[20:12] Ren
    What if he didn't want to play soccer?
[20:15] Riku
    Little bro... you're really outing
    yourself as an extrovert here.
[20:19] Riku
    W-Well, it probably depends, y'know?
[20:23] Ren
    That makes sense.
[20:25] Ren
    Thanks, Riku-neenee!
[20:28] Ren
    Next, let me give you some advice too.
[20:32] Ren
    Ask me about anything.
[20:33] Riku
    U-Uh, let's see...
[20:38] Riku
    Well, I don't have any friends.
[20:42] Riku
    I mean, I guess I do, but...
[20:45] Riku
    I'm scared of bothering them.
    What if they stop liking me?
[20:48] Riku
    I get so nervous about it
    that I end up pulling away.
[20:51] Riku
    But I'd love to get along
    with them better. What should I do?
[20:56] Riku
    What am I doing?! I'm asking
    a grade schooler for serious advice!
[21:01] Ren
    Well, I think...
[21:04] Ren
    If you always worry about being a bother,
[21:06] Ren
    you won't really get closer
    to anyone or have any fun,
[21:11] Ren
    so just speak your mind
[21:12] Ren
    and let bygones be bygones
     about being a bother.
[21:15] Ren
    Otherwise, how're you going
     to get close with anyone?
[21:18] Ren
    That way, you and your friends
    can relax around each other
[21:21] Ren
    and get to know each other better!
[21:25] Riku
