    Hurray! Hurray! Mashiron!
[00:04] Minori
    Hurray, hurray, Mashiron...
[00:06] Minori
    Hurray, hurray, Mashiron!
[00:08] Mas
    Keep it down.
[00:09] Ho
    What's this? Arisaka Mashiro got her
    past and past perfect tenses mixed up!
[00:13] Mas
    Oh, right.
[00:15] Ho
    Arisaka usually doesn't wear
    glasses, but she is for this fight.
[00:19] Mas
    I can't concentrate.
[00:21] Mas
    Also, my glasses are off-limits.
[00:23] Ho
    Why, oh why, has the tragedy by the
     name of "makeup exams" befallen her?!
[00:28] Mas
    The high school curriculum is tough.
[00:29] Ho
    Oh, dear! Yet another mistake!
[00:31] Ho
    It's an elementary spelling error!
[00:33] Mas
    I asked you to teach me,
    not do a running commentary!

    I just barely passed.
[02:15] Shi
    It was touch and go for me too,
    but I didn't fail any subjects.
[02:18] Mad
    You must be used to it by now, right, Bro?
[02:20] Mi
    Say, Masaya. Wanna know my scores?
[02:23] H
    No, I don't.
[02:24] H
    I bet most of them are perfect, anyway.
[02:26] Mi
    What's wrong?
[02:28] A
    P-Perfect?
[02:30] A
    Does such a score really exist in real life?
[02:33] H
    Don't overreact.
    She'll let it get to her head.
[02:36] Mi
    You're so indiffurent.
[02:38] Mi
    So, you made it through
    all right, didn't you?
[02:40] H
    Yeah, for what it's worth.
[02:42] Mi
    I hope Mashiro's hanging in there.
[02:44] Mad
    Having to take makeup exams is rough.
[02:46] A
    Tests are so cruel.
[02:48] A
    Her scores weren't all
    that different from mine.

    Okay, okay.

    Hello!

    Oh, hey, Arisaka.
[03:16] Sh
    Done with your makeups?
[03:18] Mas
    Yes. I can come back to

    I'm Hosaka Minori, of Kunahama
    High's Broadcasting Club!
[03:42] Ho
    Nice to meet you!
[03:44] Ho
    I've been wanting to cover the FC team,
[03:45] Ho
    which used to dead and buried, but has
    recently poked its head out from the grave.
[03:51] Ho
    I figured I'd drop by and say "Hello" today.
[03:53] Mas
    I'm sorry. She's my classmate.
[03:56] Mas
    She asked me to give her access to the
    team in exchange for helping me study.
[04:00] Sh
    Hell yeah! Our team's finally
    getting press coverage, too!
[04:03] Sh
    Feel free to ask me anything
    about speed and muscles!
[04:06] Ho
    The summer tournament's coming up next month.
[04:08] Ho
    Please tell us what you hope to achieve.
[04:10] Ho
    The Archipelago is a warzone
    teeming with powerhouse schools.
[04:12] Ho
    On the other hand, our school's
    team is a bunch of newbies.
[04:15] Ho
    Do you have some sort of secret plan?
[04:16] H
    Oh man, that stings.
[04:17] Mad
    What can ya do? It hurts because it's true.
[04:20] Ho
    Cutting to the chase, what
    challenges are you facing?
[04:23] H
    Well, it's the rainy season,
[04:25] H
    so we're having a hard time because
    we can't practice outside.
[04:28] Ho
    I see. That explains the indoor training.
[04:31] Ho
    Allow me to ask you once again:
[04:32] Ho
    What are they doing?
[04:34] Ho
    It just looks they're playing tag.
[04:36] H
    That's a mock battle of sorts in which
     you're running instead of flying.
[04:39] H
    It helps hone dogfighting instincts.
[04:41] Mi
    Gotcha!
[04:58] A
    H-Huh?
[05:02] Sh
    What the...
[05:03] Sh
    What did you just do, Kurashina?
[05:06] A
    Good question.
[05:08] H
    She's got amazing jumping ability.
[05:10] H
    How could she do a backflip with
    such ease from that situation?
[05:13] Mas
    She'd already improved a
    lot at the training camp,
[05:17] Mas
    and she's gotten even better while
    I was dealing with makeup exams!
[05:20] Mi
    Hey, that was incredible!
[05:24] A
    Did I surprise you, Tobisawa-san?
[05:26] Mi
    Who wouldn't be surprised by that?
[05:28] A
    I even surprised myself.
[05:32] H
    She did it unwittingly?
    That's Kurashina-san for you.
[05:35] Sh
    All right! Take a breather!
[05:38] Mi
    Okay!
[05:38] A
    Okay!
[05:39] Mas
    I'll go get changed!
[05:43] Mad
    So there's something I've
    been thinking about.
[05:46] Mad
    Why don't we stop calling
    one another by our surnames?
[05:49] Mad
    It's kinda awkward.
[05:51] H
    You've got a point there.
[05:52] Sh
    Acting too polite can delay a second's
    instructions by a few seconds.
[05:56] Mad
    Not just that. I'd like the team
    to bond more during practice.
[06:01] A
    I think that's a great idea!
[06:03] A
    In that case, please call me Asuka.
[06:06] Mi
    Then... Asuka?
[06:09] A
    Thank you, Misaki-chan!
[06:12] Mi
    Thanks...
[06:14] Mas
    Hold it right there!
[06:16] Mas
    I've been calling her Misaki-senpai for ages!
[06:20] Mas
    I'm the veteran here!
[06:22] A
    Oh, so that makes you my senpai.
[06:25] Mas
    That's right!
[06:26] H
    Let's get back to practice, then.
[06:29] A
    Okay.
[06:29] Mi
    All right! I'm gonna nail it this time!
[06:31] Mas
    I'll do my best, too!
SIGN    Mashiro Udon
[06:42] Mas
    I died.
[06:55] H
    Mashiro, you're a fighter!
    You can't beat her in a race!
[06:59] H
    Take a shortcut and ambush
    her at the next line!
[07:03] Mas
    Got it!
[07:15] H
    Is she not good at initial movements?
[07:18] H
    Okay, that's enough!
[07:19] H
    Next up, Asuka and Misaki
    in a practice match.
[07:22] H
    Mashiro, keep your basic posture in mind,
[07:24] H
    and do laps around the playing field.
[07:27] Mas
    I understand.
[07:29] Sh
    It's all about spirit, Arisaka!
[07:31] Mas
    Yeah, yeah.
[07:34] H
    On your marks...
[07:36] H
    Set!
[07:47] H
    That's the way, Asuka.
[07:49] A
    Okay!
[07:52] H
    What do you do when you're blocked off?
[07:54] A
    This!
[07:58] Mi
    You're really getting the hang of it.
[08:06] Mi
    You're mine!
[08:14] H
    If you'd quickly regained control there,
[08:17] H
    you could've still touched the buoy first.
[08:18] A
    Right!
[08:22] Mas
    When did Asuka-senpai get good enough
    to keep up with Misaki-senpai?
[08:26] A
    I'm moving in for the touch.
[08:28] Mi
    Not so fast.
[08:34] A
    Misaki-chan really is awesome.
[08:40] Mi
    Hey, Masaya.
[08:41] Mi
    How many wins will I need
[08:42] ---
    in order to face Shindo-san
[08:44] ---
    in the summer tournament?
[08:45] H
    If you learn to use moves like that at will,
[08:48] H
    you'll run into him eventually.
[08:50] Mi
    Got it!
[08:56] Mas
    I'm gonna get left behind!
[09:00] A
    I learn a lot from watching
    you fly, Misaki-chan.
[09:03] Mi
    You've gotten so much better, Asuka.
[09:06] Mi
    Until recently, you were having
    trouble just flying straight.
[09:09] A
    Thanks, though I'm still
    a bit unstable in flight.
[09:12] A
    Teach me how to do a barrel roll sometime!

    It's like I'm

    Are you really okay with this?
[09:29] J
    You won't get to practice
    with the others anymore.
[09:32] J
    Are you sure?
[09:33] J
    And not just practice. You won't
    get to stay with them, either.
[09:42] (Flashback) Mi

    I'm sorry for challenging

    Don't be.
[11:11] Mas
    I've kinda run into a brick wall.
[11:14] Ri
    At FC?
[11:16] Mas
    Yes.
[11:17] Mas
    Misaki-senpai has always been good,
[11:20] Mas
    and even though Asuka-senpai
    was a beginner like me,
[11:23] Mas
    she keeps improving at breakneck speed.
[11:25] Ri
    You see people like that every now and then,
[11:28] Ri
    but for most, daily practice is what counts.
[11:29] Mas
    I beg of you!
[11:30] Mas
    I wanna reach a level

    where I won't be embarrassed

    It's a no-go after all, huh?

    You're a first-year like me, and yet
    you're already a starter at Takafuji.
[11:47] Mas
    You're out of my league.
[11:50] Ri
    I'm not, really.
[11:54] Ri
    I just make sure I have
    all the basics down pat.
[11:56] Mas
    All the basics down pat?
[11:59] Ri
    Yeah.
[12:00] Mas
    Could you help me with that?
[12:03] ---
    Eh?

    Please teach me the basics!

    Our team's going to a training
    camp starting next week,
[12:14] Ri
    but I can teach you until then.
[12:17] Mas
    Thank you so much!
[12:22] Mas
    I have to get my basics right.
[12:25] Mas
    What are membranes...
[12:27] Mas
    Style-specific adjustments...
[12:31] Ri
    Take the same flight path
    and follow me, okay?
[12:34] Mas
    Wait, wait.
[12:38] Mas
    Isn't this practice for speeders?
[12:41] Mas
    I'm a fighter, though.
[12:43] Ri
    I'm not saying this because I'm a speeder,
[12:46] Ri
    but whatever your playing style,
[12:47] ---
    you can't win if you lose
    speed unnecessarily.
[12:50] Mas
    Got it.

[14:49] Ri
    Is "Misaki-senpai" Tobisawa-san from camp?
[14:53] Mas
    Yeah. I picked up FC only
    because she joined the team.
[14:58] Ri
    I envy you for having a role model.
[15:01] Mas
    You don't get along with Satouin-san?
[15:05] Ri
    She's really helpful, and I respect her.
[15:08] Mas
    But she's kinda out there, isn't she?
[15:12] Ri
    I guess.
[15:14] Ri
    Keep this between us,
[15:15] ---
    but Satouin-senpai's
    surname is actually just Satou.
[15:17] Mas
    So what, she just added the "in" herself?
[15:21] Ri
    Yep.
[15:22] Mas
    Maybe I should follow suit.
[15:24] Mas
    Arisakain!
[15:26] Mas
    Whoa, that sounds kinda awesome.
[15:28] Mas
    You should call yourself
    Ichinosein, too, Rika-chan.
[15:30] Ri
    Eh? I-I think I'll pass.
[15:34] Ri
    Satouin-senpai has dibs on
    "in," so she'll get mad at me.
[15:38] Mas
    You're so nice, Rika-chan.
[15:40] Mas
    Guess we'd better not, then.

    Maybe I'll be on equal footing
    with Asuka-senpai now.

    I don't know about that.

    But I'm sure you'll be fine.
[17:06] ---
    Hm?
[17:07] Ri
    Your light and petite
    frame is your advantage.
[17:09] Ri
    It lets you change directions
    without losing speed.

    Okay, got it.

    Well, see you—

    Mashiro says she wants to
    form an alliance with you
[17:38] ---
    and get much closer to you.
[17:42] Mas
    And asks if she can call you Rika.

    Sure thing, Mashiro!
