<br>**[02:42] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Momoharu is the tallest<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and has the highest jump, so he'll play center.<br>**[02:46] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yasu has the most offensive ability,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;quite literally, so he'll play forward.<br>**[02:50] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hmm...<br>**[02:51] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But frankly,<br>**[02:52] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;with our current members it doesn't<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;really make a difference who plays what position.<br>**[02:56] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If we had at least one more player<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;with some experience, then...<br>**[03:02] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Allow me to apologize, teach.<br>**[03:04] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The reason I'm late is because it took<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a whole night of chatting online with Yu<br>**[03:09] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;before she agreed to go on a date with me.<br>**[03:11] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hanazono...<br>**[03:12] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You realize you're not a<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;freshman anymore, right?<br>**[03:15] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Oh God, this is a nightmare!<br>**[03:17] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I totally spaced we're in a new semester!<br>**[03:19] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Who's this joker?<br>**[03:19] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Teach!

She does barbell lifts<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;over 100 kilograms every day and drinks protein!<br>**[07:33] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She even bites back at all<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the dogs in our neighborhood!<br>**[07:35] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Well... uh, it sounds like<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;she has a lot of mom power.<br>**[07:37] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So lately I've been...<br>**[07:38] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...just sending her some progress reports.<br>**[07:42] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Because... she's the only one who has ever<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;supported my passion for basketball.<br>**[07:53] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Whoa there, Sora! What are you doing?<br>**[07:55] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I can't believe how lucky<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;that jerk Taguchi is!<br>**[07:57] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He sucks as a player but he<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;still got chosen for the team!<br>**[08:00] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And when I asked the coach why,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;he told me it was only because of his height!<br>**[08:04] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I've been practicing way harder than Taguchi<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and he can barely even keep up with my speed!<br>**[08:09] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Not to mention I can score<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;more points than him!<br>**[08:11] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the end...<br>**[08:13] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...I never got the chance to<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;play in even one lousy game!<br>**[08:16] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Today was my last day on<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the junior basketball team!<br>**[08:19] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't need these basketball shoes anymore!<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Practice is pointless!<br>**[08:22] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm through! I'll never<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;play basketball again!<br>**[08:25] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If I had been your coach, I'm certain<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;that I would have made the same call.<br>**[08:31] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Oh, come on! Not you too, mom!<br>**[08:33] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You can't change the fact that height<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;is the greatest weapon in basketball.<br>**[08:38] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm sorry, Sora. But it really just means,<br>**[08:40] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;that your skills aren't refined enough<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to win out over Taguchi's height.<br>**[08:56] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And if that makes you angry...<br>**[08:57] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...then turn yourself into a player good enough<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to blow away anybody taller than you!<br>**[09:03] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;There's a whole range of things to do,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;no matter how short you are.<br>**[09:07] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Just trust me!<br>**[09:13] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I see. You have a really great mom.<br>**[09:18] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To be honest, I thought<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;what she was saying was totally crazy.<br>**[09:22] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But she became a star player by doing exactly that,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;so I had no way to refute it.<br>**[09:27] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If she was able to pull it off,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;then it's possible that I could, too.<br>**[09:30] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Huh?<br>**[09:32] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;My mom used to be a member<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;of Japan's national team!<br>**[09:37] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So wait, if your name is Kurumatani...<br>**[09:39] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...then was your mom THE Yuka Kurumatani?!<br>**[09:40] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She was an amazing player!<br>**[09:42] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why would you hide that from us?!<br>**[09:44] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Uh, I was never trying to hide it.<br>**[09:47] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;But anyway, that's why I came<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to a decision on that day.<br>**[09:51] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It doesn't matter how tall<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;or tough the opponents I face are,<br>**[09:55] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm never going to just give up<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;because of my lack of height.<br>**[09:59] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I want to prove to everyone tomorrow,<br>**[10:01] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;that even the short people of<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the world can play the game.<br>**[10:05] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All righty! It looks like<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;everyone else went home.<br>**[10:07] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;That means it's time for me<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;to start shooting some baskets!<br>**[10:14] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hey, Sora?<br>**[10:15] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah?<br>**[10:16] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Would you mind also sending me some progress<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;reports, too, like you do for your mom?<br>**[10:21] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What?<br>**[10:23] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I also want to be a supporter...<br>**[10:25] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...of your passion.<br>**[10:27] ---**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Okay?
