    Madoka just has the worst luck...
[00:05] ---
    ...coming down with a cold
    right before our family trip.
[00:12] ---
    M-my fever finally broke.
[00:14] ---
    But it's too late now...
[00:17] ---
    I really wanted to go to Fiji.
SIGN    Please hold down the fort while we're away for Golden Week. - The Family
[00:19] ---
    And now I'm stuck here for a whole week.
[00:23] ---

    Hey! You're late, Kurumatani.

    Differing Enthusiasm
[02:10] ---
    Dude, you lugged that thing all the way here?
[02:12] ---
    Nanao Sports
[02:15] ---
    Good morning!
[02:16] ---
    Whoa, that's a lot of luggage!
[02:18] ---
    Allow me to assist you.
[02:20] ---
    Oh... thank you!
[02:22] ---
    Hey, Nao, these are from my dad.
[02:25] ---
    Wow! So many veggies!
[02:27] ---
    They're fresh from our store.
[02:29] ---
    I didn't realize that your family
    ran a grocery store, Yashuara.
[02:33] ---
    Yeah, and Nabe's old man
    runs a farm down in Ibaraki.
[02:37] ---
    Here's 20 kilos of rice.
[02:38] ---
    Whoa, incredible!
[02:40] ---
    Okay, then, I know this isn't
    much of a thank you, but please...
[02:44] ---
    ...take these.
[02:45] ---
    F-for us?
[02:47] ---
    They were our display pieces,
    so they're not the cleanest.
[02:50] ---
    Sweet! A perfect fit!
[02:53] ---
    Since basketball puts a
    lot of strain on the legs,
[02:56] ---
    I thought you guys should have proper shoes.
[03:00] ---
    I think I want get married to Nao...!
[03:04] ---
    Where are we gonna be sleeping?
[03:05] ---
    And also eat our meals.
[03:07] ---
    You'll all be sleeping in the gym, obviously.
[03:09] ---
    We have permission to use the Home Ec classroom
    for cooking and eating.
[03:12] ---
    So then, where will you sleep, Nao?
[03:15] ---
    Mr. Satsuki unlocked the break room for me,
    but to be honest...
[03:18] ---
    ...I'm scared of sleeping by myself,
    so I'll stay with all of you.
[03:23] ---
    WITH ALL OF US?!
[03:27] ---
    This is the best training camp ever!
[03:30] ---
    Okay everybody, get changed
    and then meet in the gym!
[03:33] ---
    ROGER!
SIGN    Yoko: Did you get over your cold?
SIGN    Yoko: Did you get over your cold? Yoko: I hear the boys' team is doing a training camp right now.
[03:39] ---
    A training camp?
SIGN    Yoko: I hear the boys' team is doing a training camp right now.
[03:41] ---
    That sounds like a lot of fun!
[03:44] ---
    I thought that we'd end up
    doing intense training all day, but...
[03:47] ---
    This might actually be fun,
    like one of those seaside schools!
[03:50] ---
    I brought a console for us to play with.
[03:51] ---
    The Legend of Rails
[03:51] ---
    Nice, Yasu!
[03:53] ---
    I guess we're having a game tourney tonight!
[03:55] ---
    Chiaki's Notes
[03:56] ---
    From what I've uncovered,
    Nao's grades in Home Ec are at the top of her class.
[04:01] ---
    Awesome!
[04:02] ---
    I'm looking forward to see
    what she cooks us for dinner!
[04:02] ---
    I thought they might get bummed out
    at the idea of a training camp,
[04:04] ---
    Yeah, I'm curious to see what it'll be!
[04:05] ---
    but it looks like everyone
    will be in good spirits for practice.
[04:08] ---
    Is there anybody who wouldn't be excited
    for an event like this?
[04:11] ---
    There's something even more amazing
    waiting for us after dinner.
[04:14] ---
    Oh?!
[04:16] ---
    And what makes you say that?
[04:17] ---
    Because I've already worked
    my magic on the baths.
[04:20] ---
    You really do have all of
    your bases covered, man!
[04:23] ---
    Training camps for the win!
[04:29] ---
    Oh, they're really going at it.
[04:31] ---
    Hey, guys!
[04:33] ---
    I came to hang out!
[04:41] ---
    They're all totally wiped out...
[04:44] ---
    ...and there isn't even a ball on the court.
    Have they just been running?!
[04:54] ---
    What's going on Nao?
[04:55] ---
    Oh, hello, Madoka.
[04:57] ---
    I heard you guys were doing
    a training camp, but...
[04:59] ---
    Yep. We just got started today.
[05:02] ---
    You just started and they're
    already this tired?
[05:05] ---
    Yes.
[05:06] ---
    The emphasis of this training is on footwork,
    so it's extra difficult for the three newbies.
[05:10] ---
    But for our experienced members,
    I'm making them do double what those three are.
[05:14] ---
    The most important thing for them right now
    is to build stamina and toughen up.

[05:34] ---
    Right now, this is nothing
    but a gathering of talented players.
[05:39] ---
    They're still completely
    undeveloped as a team.
[05:43] ---
    The entire point of this training camp...
[05:45] ---
    ...is to create the real
    Kuzu High basketball team.
[05:50] ---
    A team that will survive
    the intense competition
[05:52] ---
    of the Kanagawa block and go
    to the inter-high tournament.
[05:55] ---
    I believe with all of my heart,
    that these guys are capable of that.
[06:00] ---
    I can tell, she's serious about this...
[06:04] ---
    When you've finished with that,
    please go and walk it off!
[06:07] ---
    Get your breathing under control
    and then start pushing your pace up!
[06:13] ---
    They're like zombies.
[06:14] ---
    But it's hard to believe that until recently,
    all these guys did was get into fights.
[06:22] ---
    Hey, Nao?
[06:24] ---
    Is there are anything
    that I can help out with?
[06:27] ---
    Huh?
[06:28] ---
    My house is totally empty now,
    so I wouldn't mind staying overnight.
[06:32] ---
    Really? That would be a big help!
[06:35] ---
    Um, in that case, I do have
    one favor to ask of you.
[06:38] ---
    Sure. Anything you want!
[06:53] ---
    Home Ec. Room
[06:55] ---
    That's a hard pass, even from me.
[06:57] ---
    For real, my stomach
    isn't accepting any donations right now.
[07:02] ---
    Those jerks! After all
    that effort I put in...
[07:05] ---
    Though I will admit I
    screwed up just a little.
[07:11] ---
    Seconds, please. I'm still hungry.
[07:13] ---
    You don't have to force yourself
    to eat it on my account.
[07:16] ---
    The hell are you going on about?
[07:18] ---
    It's a little saltier than ordinary,
    but it tastes just fine.
[07:24] ---
    Thanks...
[07:30] ---
    And so, the first one bites the dust...
[07:33] ---
    Survival of the fittest.
[07:35] ---
    RIP in peace, Momoharu.
[07:40] ---
    What now? Should we play games or something?
[07:42] ---
    My muscles are so cramped
    that I can't move an inch.
[07:45] ---
    Let's just sleep.
[07:47] ---
    Hold your horses, gentlemen.
[07:49] ---
    There's still one thing left...
[07:52] ---
    ...the main event of this evening.
[07:57] ---
    Ah, this feels great!
[08:00] ---
    Are you really sure this is okay?
[08:02] ---
    Huh?
[08:03] ---
    Spending your holiday with
    us at the training camp.
[08:05] ---
    I have nothing better to do.
[08:07] ---
    This is one good way to pass the time.
[08:09] ---
    Plus, just think, it would be dangerous for you
    to be here alone.
[08:12] ---
    Those guys are wild animals.
[08:14] ---
    To be honest, I did have my
    own worries about that...
[08:22] ---
    But there's something else.
[08:26] ---
    One more thing I'm really concerned about.
[08:29] ---
    I've amassed a lot of basketball knowledge,
[08:31] ---
    but that's not enough to
    make me a proper coach.
[08:34] ---
    I've been putting up a facade of confidence
    in front of everyone until now.
[08:39] ---
    But I'm not really sure if what we're doing
    will actually work in the end.
[08:42] ---
    Alternatively, I know that
    if I seem hesitant at all,
[08:46] ---
    then it will just cause
    everyone to have doubts.
[08:48] ---
    I've already prepared myself for the worst
    if they end up hating me for it, but...
[08:52] ---
    You're doing just fine. No problem.
[08:56] ---
    I think everyone is already aware
    of what they need to do to better themselves.
[09:00] ---
    Plus, I get the feeling that brave face you put on
    is getting through to them.
[09:07] ---
    Shhh!
[09:08] ---
    Listen up, I jammed a small rock
    into the bottom of this window earlier.
[09:12] ---
    Now it won't fully close
    and gets stuck open just a tiny bit.
[09:16] ---
    Your foresight is most admirable, commander!
[09:21] ---
    Great. Then I shall take the first peek!
[09:27] ---
    Whew, I'm feeling refreshed!
SIGN    Fuji Bathhouse Sauna Electric Bath Whirlpool Jet Bath
[09:29] ---
    It's really nice to have a bathhouse
    so close to where the school is.
[09:32] ---
    Wh-what's wrong, Chiaki?!
[09:34] ---
    Ugh, they got me.
[09:36] ---
    What do you mean? Who got you?!
[09:38] ---
    I dunno! Some sort of mysterious creature
    that I've never seen before!
[09:46] ---
    Come on! Hurry up, Sora!
[09:49] ---
    Here!
[09:51] ---
    M-Madoka...
[09:58] ---
    Wait up, Madoka...!
[10:00] ---
    You're walking too fast...!
[10:09] ---
    First, a 7.5-kilometer run.
[10:11] ---
    I sure had a nice dream.
[10:15] ---
    Afterwards, an hour of
    stretches and loosening up.
[10:19] ---
    Following breakfast, we
    get into morning practice.
[10:22] ---
    For the first half of the day,
    our practice focuses entirely on footwork.
[10:35] ---
    Greased
    Lightning
[10:37] ---
    I'm starting to think he
    might not even be human...
[10:39] ---
    Shit! What the hell do we
    gotta do to move like he does?
[10:43] ---
    All we've been doing is tripping
    up over and over again.
[10:46] ---
    It's because your knees and toes
    aren't properly pointed in the same direction.
[10:50] ---
    You can't exert all the power that your legs
    are capable of if you're off-balance.
[10:54] ---
    It prevents you from running faster
    and stopping more precisely.
[10:58] ---
    If you overpronate or get your
    knees pointed the wrong way,
[11:01] ---
    then you have to correct it right away.
[11:02] ---
    When you turn, you should carry your weight
    on the ball of your foot.
[11:07] ---
    I think their teamwork will develop nicely
    if things keep progressing like this.
[11:13] ---
    Aight, time for another set.
[11:14] ---
    Hold up a sec! Let me rest for a bit!
[11:17] ---
    Cut the crap, you can't be that worn out.
[11:19] ---
    My feet hurt too much to run, dude.
[11:22] ---
    I understand.
[11:23] ---
    Then the two of you can leave the court
    and rest for a while.
[11:26] ---
    We can't have anybody pushing so hard
    that they break a bone or pass out.
[11:29] ---
    Yeah!
[11:30] ---
    All right!
[11:31] ---
    However!
[11:32] ---
    You will both be required to hold a ball
    the entire time you're resting.
[11:36] ---
    I want the three of you, including Yasuhara,
[11:39] ---
    to do that at any time when you're
    not actively practicing on the court. Okay?
[11:51] ---
    Whew, I'm super glad that Nanao was the one
    who made dinner tonight.
[11:56] ---
    Ow! It's only the second day of our camp,
    but my legs are already killing me.
[12:00] ---
    I don't think I'll last for
    1,000 shots of practice today.
[12:08] ---
    Kite...
[12:15] ---
    What's up? You here for solo practice, too?
[12:17] ---
    Oh, yeah!
[12:21] ---
    Um, do you want me to throw you some passes?
[12:24] ---
    No need.
[12:26] ---
    You have your own skills that you need
    to stay focused on.
[12:29] ---
    Don't spend your time fussing over others.
[12:31] ---
    Work on improving your shot accuracy instead.
[12:36] ---
    I shouldn't fuss over others, huh?
[12:40] ---
    But Kite is the one who spends the most time
    fussing over the others during practice.
[12:49] ---
    Dammit! I won't let him outdo me!
[12:56] ---
    I guess it's pretty silly of me
    to tell HIM of all people to work on accuracy.
[13:04] ---
    Nope, I'm done! After just 200 shots
    I can't even move anymore...
[13:09] ---
    Hey, tell me something.
    What do you think about this team?
[13:13] ---
    What do you mean?
[13:14] ---
    Well, the high school that
    I was supposed to go to
[13:17] ---
    always recruited top players
    from around the country.
[13:21] ---
    "Supposed to go to"?
[13:23] ---
    And the coach there was highly regarded, too.
[13:26] ---
    But despite all of that they've never become
    the national champs. Not even once.
[13:32] ---
    When I consider that, I can't help
    but wonder why I'm sticking with this team.
[13:37] ---
    The inter-high... is so far from our grasp.
[13:41] ---
    Kite...
[13:43] ---
    Oh, there he is.
[13:45] ---
    Yo Kite! Teach me some
    more about how to dribble!
[13:47] ---
    Hey, Yasuhara!
[13:49] ---
    I see you're holding on to the ball
    just like Nanao told you to.
[13:51] ---
    Yep.
[13:52] ---
    But I don't get it, is
    there a point to all this?
[13:55] ---
    It's so that you develop a
    better feel for the ball.
[13:58] ---
    "Better feel"?
[13:59] ---
    Though, I know it can be boring
    just fiddling around with it all day like that.
[14:02] ---
    I'll teach you something fun you can do.
[14:04] ---
    Trace the edge of the ball
    with your hand, like this.
[14:07] ---
    Then stop it on the back of your hand.
[14:09] ---
    Repeat that in a loop
    with both of your hands.
[14:12] ---
    Whoa! Dude, that's awesome!
[14:14] ---
    It's called a "flip."
[14:19] ---
    Whoops!
[14:21] ---
    I can do it, too!
[14:27] ---
    So, hey. I think that you're right.
[14:30] ---
    The inter-high seems like
    it's way out of our league right now.
[14:33] ---
    But all we can really do is
    keep moving forward, right?
[14:37] ---
    That's a good point.
[14:40] ---
    I guess... everybody starts somewhere.
[14:46] ---
    Man, I wasn't be able to
    do the flip at all today.
[14:50] ---
    It takes time, it's not meant to be easy.
[14:52] ---
    What's most important is that you spend
    a lot of time handling the ball.

    Nooooo!
[15:01] ---
    That sucks for you, dude!
[15:03] ---
    Let's reset it.
[15:03] ---
    No way! That's a cheap move, cheater!
[15:06] ---
    Okay, fine then. Let's pick
    this up with a clean sla-

    You were too tired to run, but it looks like
    you've got plenty of energy for games.
[15:11] ---
    Huh?
[15:12] ---
    Didn't our manager give
    you an order to hold on
[15:15] ---
    to a ball whenever you're
    not out on the court?
[15:19] ---
    You got something to say, punk?
[15:21] ---
    It's called "free" time because we can spend it
    doing whatever we want!
[15:24] ---
    That ain't right.
[15:26] ---
    You guys need to double down
    and learn all the basics,
[15:28] ---
    so that you can practice with the rest of us.
[15:31] ---
    I can't tell what you guys are thinking,
[15:34] ---
    but I'm dead set on getting
    our team to the inter-high.
[15:37] ---
    So please just keep your shit together
    and don't hold the rest of us back.
[15:43] ---
    I'm not gonna lie, that kind
    of pissed me off just now.
[15:48] ---
    Whoa, whoa, whoa! Let's not fight guys!
[15:51] ---
    I think you overstepped the
    line with that comment, Kite.
[15:54] ---
    It's important to take a
    breather sometimes, right?
[15:56] ---
    Come on, just apologize to them.
[15:58] ---
    Why should I?
[16:00] ---
    Everything I said was true and you know it.
[16:02] ---
    Kite!
[16:03] ---
    What do you think?
[16:05] ---
    About what?
[16:06] ---
    Nanao specifically gave
    those three something to do.
[16:09] ---
    But only one of them is taking it seriously.
[16:12] ---
    The other two are off playing a game.
[16:14] ---
    Not only that, but they slacked off
    during afternoon practice.
[16:18] ---
    But that's...
[16:21] ---
    "Slacked off"?!
[16:23] ---
    Our feet hurt like hell, so
    we stopped to get some rest!
[16:26] ---
    Your feet may hurt,
    but you could still use your hands.
[16:28] ---
    Why do you think Nanao told you
    to keep holding on to the ball?
[16:33] ---
    We have no fucking idea what
    the purpose of all this is!
[16:36] ---
    Hey! Please, let's stop this!
[16:39] ---
    Wh-what's going on in here?
SIGN    BOYS' BASKETBALL TEAM
[16:54] ---
    You need to quit thinking that everyone here
    is on the same page about the inter-high.
[16:59] ---
    Those guys have barely started, they're only
[17:02] ---
    at the point where basketball
    seems pretty fun.
[17:05] ---
    I know full well what it's like
    to fail and be discouraged.
[17:08] ---
    And these are exactly the sort of differences
    that drive a wedge into the team.
[17:13] ---
    Not everybody plays the game
    just to support somebody else.
[17:16] ---
    I don't want to hear anymore bullshit
    about us "holding you back."
[17:32] ---
    Oh, good morning.
[17:34] ---
    You're up early today.
[17:36] ---
    I couldn't really sleep that well.
[17:37] ---
    Because of yesterday?
[17:39] ---
    Yeah.
[17:40] ---
    I don't think anything that
    Chiaki said was wrong...
[17:43] ---
    ...but even so, I feel the
    same way that Kite does.
[17:47] ---
    When it comes to sports, having
    a desire to improve becomes
[17:50] ---
    really important the further you go.
[17:55] ---
    I'm sorry.
[17:57] ---
    I should have taken more care
    and considered how those two must feel...
[18:00] ---
    Oh, no! It's nothing that
    you need to apologize about!
[18:04] ---
    Hey, Tinytown!
[18:05] ---
    It's way too early in the morning
    to be going around flirting, dude.
[18:08] ---
    N-nobody around here has
    been doing any flirting!
[18:10] ---
    Whatever, have you seen
    Nabe or Chucky around?
[18:13] ---
    Huh?
[18:14] ---
    I can't find them anywhere.
[18:19] ---
    All of their luggage is packed up and gone.
[18:23] ---
    They made a break for it.
[18:26] ---
    Hell yeah!
[18:27] ---
    Awesome!
[18:30] ---
    Kick ass!
[18:30] ---
    I'm on fire!
[18:31] ---
    You haven't won yet!
[18:35] ---
    What a haul!
    That was genius! Pure genius!
[18:38] ---
    Now THIS is what a vacation should be like!
[18:41] ---
    Screw training camp.
    Those guys who want to practice can go right ahead!
[18:44] ---
    That's not fair!
[18:45] ---
    We were the ones who got here first!
[18:47] ---
    What's this? A fight?
[18:48] ---
    That's right! That's right!
[18:50] ---
    You twerps suck, so go find
    somewhere else to play.
[18:53] ---
    That's unfair! Cut it out!
[18:56] ---
    Which means I'm willing to spend some time
    weeding out the world's bullies.
[19:00] ---
    But mostly because those jerks remind me
    of Kite and it's pissing me off.
[19:03] ---
    Hey there, you little punks!
[19:05] ---
    You're too old to be bullying
    elementary schoolers.
[19:08] ---
    There's no bullying going on here.
[19:10] ---
    They're the ones who lost
    the wager game, fair and square.
[19:13] ---
    "Wager game"?
[19:15] ---
    The basketball hoop in this park
    is the only one in the neighborhood.
[19:19] ---
    Whenever there's a debate
    about who gets to use it,
[19:22] ---
    both sides settle it with
    a wager game of basketball.
[19:25] ---
    And let me guess, you guys were the winners?
[19:27] ---
    Yep. If they want to play, then they should
    practice and get good enough to win.
[19:32] ---
    That doesn't seem entirely fair.
[19:34] ---
    I definitely don't agree with the idea that
[19:36] ---
    the better players are
    the more important ones.
[19:42] ---
    Hey, listen up, kiddos.
[19:45] ---
    If middle schoolers can
    take on elementary kids,
[19:47] ---
    then you have no problem
    with high schoolers. Right?
[19:49] ---
    That's fine, but can you
    old farts actually play?
[19:53] ---
    Prepare to have your socks knocked off.
[19:55] ---
    And roll out the red carpet!
[19:57] ---
    We're members of the Kuzu
    High basketball team!
[20:00] ---
    Let's go out and look for them.
[20:03] ---
    No way. Too much effort, man.
[20:05] ---
    It's better to leave them be.
[20:07] ---
    They're only going to get in our way
    if we let them loaf around here.
[20:10] ---
    But that's not...
[20:11] ---
    What did you think?
[20:13] ---
    Huh?
[20:14] ---
    What did you think after you saw them
    act like that yesterday?
[20:18] ---
    Well, I...
[20:20] ---
    ...but even so, I feel the
    same way that Kite does.
[20:30] ---
    Shinshiro Middle
    8 points
    Kuzu High
[20:30] ---
    Anybody who lacks true
    passion for the game won't
[20:33] ---
    get better no matter how much they practice.
[20:36] ---
    You should know that better than anyone else.
[20:39] ---
    Passion...
[20:45] ---
    Are you guys seriously on a basketball team?
[20:48] ---
    You can hardly even dribble
    the ball properly!
[20:50] ---
    What the hell? How are
    you guys this damn good?
[20:53] ---
    What do you mean?
[20:54] ---
    We've been playing basketball
    since first grade.
[20:56] ---
    First grade?
[20:58] ---
    Does that mean these kids have been
     playing basketball for more than six years?!
[21:03] ---
    We want to get even better.
[21:05] ---
    We can't afford to spend time playing
    with a bunch of little twerps.
[21:09] ---
    So please just keep your shit together
    and don't hold the rest of us back.
[21:13] ---
    Basketball is a tough sport,
    don't sell it short.
[21:16] ---
    Even if you found those two,
    what are you planning to say to them?
[21:21] ---
    "It doesn't matter if you're not motivated,
[21:23] ---
    let's try our best to get
    to the inter-high together"?
[21:25] ---
    Or maybe, "who cares about the inter-high,
[21:28] ---
    let's just have fun with it
    and play games along the way"?
[21:31] ---
    Well?
[21:33] ---
    No way...
[21:35] ---
    You know I could never
    say any of that to them.
[21:39] ---
    I mean, you explained it perfectly earlier.
[21:42] ---
    Those two only think of basketball
    as being pretty fun, right?
[21:46] ---
    But that means, it's possible they'll come to enjoy it
    even more in the future. Isn't that true?
[21:52] ---
    That's why, they can't just quit playing
    because of a minor setback like this.
[21:56] ---
    I've decided. I'm going out
    to look for them right now!
[22:15] ---
    Doredake sora o miagetatte
    It didn't matter how long you stared up at the sky
[22:18] ---
    Boku wa tobenai to kimi wa itta
    You always said that you would never be able to fly
[22:21] ---
    Ato nankai te o nobaseba
    One night I cried wondering how long it would take
[22:25] ---
    Todoku no darou to naita yoru
    Until I could finally reach you with my hands
[22:28] ---
    Nigedasu koto ni nareteitte
    Eventually I got used to just running away
[22:32] ---
    Sore ga yowasa dato shitta ano hi
    Until the day I realized that was a weakness
[22:35] ---
    Hajimeyou mata, kyou kara
    So let's start it all over, right now
[22:42] ---
    Taisetsu na mono wa itsudemo soba ni atta
    The things precious to us were always close at hand
[22:48] ---
    Bokura wa itsumo hitori janai donna toki mo
    We are never completely alone at any time in our lives
[22:54] ---
    Toberu sa doko made mo kimi wa
    The truth is that you can fly, wherever you want
[22:57] ---
    Dare yori tataku tataku habataite
    Spreading your wings to go far higher than anyone else
[23:01] ---
    Nagashita namida no kazu dake
    The more tears that you shed
[23:06] ---
    Tsuyoku narunda
    Then the stronger you become
[23:07] ---
    Tsubasa hiroge sekai o megutte
    Let's use those wings to travel the world over
[23:11] ---
    Dare mo shiranai mirai o sagasou
    And find a path to a future that no one knows about
[23:14] ---
    Zutto, zutto, zutto
    Always, always, always
[23:19] ---
    Aruite yukou saa, issho ni
    Walking onwards, all of us together
[23:30] ---
    Ahiru no Sora
    Next Time: Towards Victory
[23:31] ---
    Next time: "Towards Victory."
