[00:31] AIKU     Our star player, Sendou, and your     violent plus-one got into another fight. [00:37] AIKU     Seems they just can't get along. [00:39] SAE     Don't care. [00:41] SAE     Just kick that garbage "star player"      of yours off the team. [00:44] AIKU     Nah, he may be garbage to you,     but to us, he's our star player. [00:53] AIKU     So a lot of our players are saying     if Sendou's left out, they won't play. [01:00] AIKU     At this rate, the match will be boycotted     due to too many players withdrawing. [01:04] AIKU     Still not gonna change     your mind, Li'l Genius? [01:09] SAE     Is that a threat? [01:10] AIKU     Not at all.

[01:50] AIKU     And the remaining 1% is     because it's my job as captain. [01:55] AIKU     I don't like money-grabbing adults, either. [02:00] SAE     You're one self-serving captain. [02:03] SAE     Interesting idea. Okay, I'll take the bait. [02:07] AIKU     You will? Thanks.     You're more amiable than I thought. [02:15] SAE     Don't get the wrong idea.
