[02:04] Yoigoshi
My mom worries too much.
[02:06] teacher
Hang in there.
[02:07] Mom
Make sure you work hard in both
athletics and studies, okay?
[02:12] boy 1
Yoigoshi-kun!
[02:13] boy 2
We heard you're still doing amazing things
even in a new club! That kabaddi thing.
[02:17] boy 1
Your reflexes are so insane
it's no problem for you, right?
[02:21] Yoigoshi
No, empty-handed team sport
isn't as easy as you'd think.
[02:26] boy 1
Really... So, kabaddi's a team sport.
[02:29] boy 2
How many players do you need for a game?
[02:33] Yoigoshi
How... many?
[02:35] Azemichi
Huh?
[02:36] Azemichi
I don't really know, either.
[02:38] Yoigoshi
You'd care, normally, wouldn't you?
[02:40] Yoigoshi
About the number of regulars or
players on the starting lineup...
[02:42] Azemichi
I'm new at this, too, you know?
[02:44] Azemichi
Just remembering the rules
is as much as I can handle.
[02:47] Azemichi
And I haven't really played many sports.
[02:50] Yoigoshi
You must have had sports
teams in middle school.
[02:52] Azemichi
Huh? We didn't have teams.
[02:55] Yoigoshi
You didn't have teams?
[02:57] Azemichi
Out in the countryside where I lived,
there weren't many people.
[02:59] Azemichi
The only exercise we could get was
running on the mountain, or fishing...
[03:03] Azemichi
All we could do was challenge nature.
[03:06] Azemichi
After coming to Tokyo, I could challenge people
like you and our senpai for the first time.
[03:10] Azemichi
It's been so much fun, I haven't
had time to give it much thought...
[03:16] Yoigoshi
All right.
[03:18] Yoigoshi
I won't ask you any more.
[03:19] Azemichi
Wha— Why not?
[03:21] Iura
Didn't I say?
[03:23] Iura
Usually, games are played seven-on-seven.
[03:25] Yoigoshi
Seven players?
[03:26] Yoigoshi
Then we don't have enough people, do we?
[03:30] Iura
No, as long as we have five people,
we can have matches.
[03:32] Yoigoshi
You just said seven-on-seven!
[03:35] Iura
I did say "usually," didn't I?
[03:38] Iura
Think about it.
[03:39] Iura
Up to this point, we were able to play
one-on-one and two-on-two, weren't we?
[03:44] Iura
Even at other schools,
[03:45] Iura
there are lots of teams that
don't have many members
[03:47] Iura
who will have five-on-five games with us.
[03:50] Yoigoshi
Why is it all so sloppy?
[03:52] Iura
Kabaddi is a sport where the numbers
on the court fluctuate anyway.
[03:57] Yoigoshi
Fluctuate?
[03:59] Iura
It's like dodgeball.
[04:01] Iura
Whether on offense or defense,
[04:02] Iura
players who have a point taken have
to leave the court. It's a rule.
[04:06] Iura
If their teammates score, they can come back.
[04:09] Yoigoshi
Th-Then...
[04:11] Yoigoshi
sometimes the defense will
have seven players...
[04:13] Yoigoshi
and sometimes there will be only one?
[04:15] Iura
That's right.
[04:16] Iura
Though, it doesn't matter much for training,
so we don't worry about it for practice.
[04:21] Iura
These are things that come after
members know all the rules,
[04:24] Iura
so you only need to think about what
you can do right now, Yoigoshi.
[04:28] Yoigoshi
What I can do right now...
[04:30] Yoigoshi
It's been about a month
since I started kabaddi.
[04:33] Yoigoshi
I've learned a lot, but what
is it that's needed to win?
[04:37] Misumi
Good work, guys!
[04:39] Yoigoshi

[04:52] Yoigoshi
I'm lacking in physical strength, in power.
[04:56] Yoigoshi
Iura said it, right?
[04:57] Yoigoshi
The number of players on
the court will fluctuate.
[05:00] Yoigoshi
If I'm ever on defense alone, I won't
be able to take down a powerful raider.
[05:05] Yoigoshi
So, I'm here asking you
for ways to get stronger.
[05:08] Yoigoshi
Come in for a minute.
[05:13] Yoigoshi
Baseball?
[05:16] Date
I'm from a baseball family.
[05:17] Date
I played from before I can
remember through middle school.
[05:20] Date
I guess it'd be like you and soccer.
[05:23] Date
So, I know a lot about how to bulk up, but...
[05:27] Date
for kabaddi, your physique is
already more than good enough.
[05:32] Yoigoshi
Don't be stupid. I'm tall, but...
[05:35] Date
You should put on a little more muscle,
but you might go over the limit.

your sense of balance, which is
so important in kabaddi, will suffer.
[05:58] Date
And, more than anything else,
you'll kill that speed you're so proud of.
[06:02] Date
You have power. That's good, and you
should work on developing it, but...

[06:14] Yoigoshi
I'm only five kilos shy of the limit.
I can't afford to put on excess muscle.

We're ready!
[06:34] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:36] Yoigoshi
Our best raider is Iura,
[06:38] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:40] Yoigoshi
but his lack of power makes him the only
one I have a chance of taking down solo.
[06:44] Misumi
He's going off on his own again!
[06:46] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:47] Iura
His expression says he wants
to take someone, anyone, down.
[06:50] Iura
But, are you aware?
[06:51] Iura
In kabaddi, the raider has an
overwhelming advantage one-on-one.
[06:52] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:55] Iura
Where the anti has to tackle,
[06:58] Iura
the raider only has to touch.
The difference in difficulty is clear.
[07:00] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi... Kabaddi!
[07:04] Misumi
I'm amazed he dodged that!
[07:07] Yoigoshi
What does this guy see?
[07:09] Iura; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[07:11] Yoigoshi
Hey, wait! Don't head back!
[07:13] Iura
Huh?
[07:15] Yoigoshi
In defense practice,
you're the only guy I can take down.
[07:19] Iura
So you say, but I can't keep up the cant.
[07:22] Yoigoshi
I want to get the hang of how a
tackle feels, in order to win.
[07:25] Iura
Yoigoshi.
[07:27] Iura
When I told you to think
about what you can do now,
[07:30] Iura
what I meant was that I wanted you to
develop the skills you already have.
[07:33] Yoigoshi
Skills? On defense, the only thing
I can do is dodge a touch...
[07:38] Iura
Can you dodge even at this distance?
[07:40] Yoigoshi
Of course I can. Anyone could—
[07:45] Iura
How do you usually dodge?
[07:47] Yoigoshi
W-Well, I watch my opponent carefully...
[07:50] Yoigoshi
and somehow it just sort of happens...
[07:51] Iura
You can't say, can you?
[07:53] Iura
It's difficult to explain
an innate talent to others.
[07:56] Iura
In your case, Yoigoshi, you have
an eye for evasion, speed,
[08:00] Iura
and, most importantly, reach.
[08:02] Iura
That's why you will become Noukin's
Beast, the strongest raider.
[08:08] Iura
There's no need to push
yourself on solo defense.
[08:10] Iura
It's on offense where I'm counting
on you to get us points.
[08:17] Yoigoshi
It's not much, but wearing a mask helps
recreate the breathlessness of the cant.
[08:20] Yoigoshi
I'll work up a sweat before practice.
[08:22] Yoigoshi
My heightened awareness is different
from that of the ordinary people.
[08:27] Yoigoshi
Whoa!
[08:29] Yoigoshi
I didn't sense him at all!
[08:31] Ojo
Whoops...
[08:32] Yoigoshi
S-Sorry! Are you okay?
[08:34] Ojo
I'm fine.
[08:37] Yoigoshi
He's so light!
[08:38] Ojo
I'm the one who should apologize.
[08:40] Ojo
You're not hurt, are you?
[08:43] Yoigoshi
Uh, no...
[08:45] Yoigoshi
He's so gaunt, he looks like
he's on the brink of death.
[08:49] Ojo
That's a relief.
[08:50] Yoigoshi
Especially compared to the burly types
I've been hanging out with lately.
[08:54] Ojo
Well, I have somewhere to go.
If you'll excuse me.

I'm always like this, so...
[09:10] Yoigoshi
You wobble around like this all the time?
[09:12] Ojo
I am part of a team at my
high school, a sports team,
[09:16] Ojo
but I just don't seem to get any stronger.
[09:19] Yoigoshi
I-I see. A team.
[09:23] Ojo
I'm finally going back.
[09:25] Ojo
Hearing we have an amazing
new member made me anxious.
[09:28] Ojo
I only ran a little and
I ended up getting dizzy...
[09:32] Yoigoshi
He seems like he's having a rough time.
[09:35] Ojo
Our new member is famous in
a different sport, you see.
[09:39] Yoigoshi
Is this a thing where I should
try to encourage him?
[09:42] Yoigoshi
I-I know a guy like that.
[09:46] Yoigoshi
He was completely trashed by
the guys with experience.
SIGN Not encouraging
[09:49] Yoigoshi
S-So, I'm sure you'll be fine, right?

Do you think so?

you were running, too...

What are those guys doing?

[10:32] Yoigoshi
The leader that manages these musclebound
morons and that fiendish four-eyes?
[10:35] Yoigoshi
I don't understand.
How could a guy like this...
[10:38] Azemichi
Welcome back!
[10:39] Azemichi
Thank you for your hard work
in fulfilling your obligations!
[10:41] Iura
Was he serving time?
[10:42] Ojo
It's been a while, hasn't it, Soma?
[10:45] Yoigoshi
You've met each other?
[10:47] Iura
Last winter.
[10:49] Iura
Cap is the one who scouted Azemichi.
[10:52] Yoigoshi
Why is that guy the captain?
[10:54] Iura
Why do you ask?
[10:56] Yoigoshi
I mean, he seems really weak...
[10:59] Yoigoshi
What can he do with a body like that?
[11:03] Iura
Ask him yourself. This is the
perfect chance, isn't it?
[11:06] team
Cheers!
[11:08] Azemichi
Let's play cards, Captain!
[11:11] Misumi
But not with Iura-san.
[11:12] Iura
Why?
[11:13] Misumi
Because you never lose, Iura-san.
[11:16] Ojo
I'm not very good at cards.
[11:18] Yoigoshi
So, he's not super smart
or anything either, huh?
[11:22] Ojo
Yoigoshi-kun, you should come play, too!
[11:24] Yoigoshi
I'm fine. Once we start a game,
there'll be no end to it.
[11:28] Misumi
This guy really, really hates losing.
[11:31] Misumi
It's one thing if it's only a test of abilities,
[11:33] Misumi
but when luck is involved,
he'll just keep playing until he wins.
[11:37] Ojo
Really?
[11:38] Azemichi
If it's a test of abilities,
there's one I want to try!
[11:42] Azemichi
Arm wrestling!
[11:44] Iura
In that case, we'll leave
Date and Misumi out.
[11:46] Misumi
Uh oh. He's holding a grudge about earlier.
[11:48] Date
And he dragged me into it, too.
[11:57] Ojo
Though imperfect... being captain allows
you to begin to see many things.
[12:02] Ojo
Like how the team looks up to me,
[12:04] Ojo
or conversely, a wariness...
[12:05] Ojo
like when my worth is being tested.
[12:09] Ojo
I heard that "Yoigoshi the Unstoppable"
had grown to hate sports...
[12:13] Ojo
Seeing you so serious
about this makes me happy.
[12:16] Ojo
So, I'll show you a little
of why I'm captain.
[12:23] Iura
Well, then. Ready...
[12:25] Iura
Go!
[12:28] Yoigoshi
Huh?
[12:29] Azemichi
Captain!
[12:30] Date
The captain has only just been discharged
from the hospital, Yoigoshi!
[12:34] Yoigoshi
There was no weight to him.
I couldn't feel any power at all!
[12:38] Yoigoshi
Has my own strength drastically improved?
[12:41] Yoigoshi
Azemichi!
[12:47] Yoigoshi
Th-That doesn't seem to be the case.
[12:53] Yoigoshi
He's at a level where he
can compete with Iura?
[12:55] Ojo
Darn it.
[12:56] Yoigoshi
Hey. This is too much work,
so I'm just going to ask flat-out.
[12:59] Yoigoshi
Why are you the captain?
[13:01] Yoigoshi
You're clearly weak, and you can't
possibly be cut out for kabaddi.
[13:04] Misumi
Hey, Yoigoshi!
[13:06] Ojo
That's true. My body isn't
really built for kabaddi.
[13:09] Ojo
But the reason I'm captain...
[13:12] Ojo
is because I'm the strongest.
[13:16] Yoigoshi
What?
[13:21] Iura
Even if I try to stop you,
you won't listen, right?
[13:24] Ojo
Yeah. I'll only do a little.
[13:26] Iura
Don't get reckless.
[13:28] Yoigoshi
After those arm wrestling results,
he's gonna do kabaddi?
[13:32] Ojo
They say you're fast on your feet, right?
[13:34] Ojo
A fast rookie playing
the same position as me.
[13:37] Ojo
It'd make you anxious, right?
[13:40] Ojo
There hasn't been
anyone like that up to now.
[13:44] Ojo
I've been so anxious to play...
[13:48] Yoigoshi
So, it wasn't that you were freaking out?
[13:50] Ojo
Let's hurry up and play a game, okay?
[13:53] Ojo
Hurry up...
[13:55] Ojo
Let's do this!
[14:00] Ojo
No, no.
[14:02] Iura
Cap, I don't want you to strain yourself.
[14:04] Iura
Will you be able to do introductions
in a one-turn game?
[14:07] Ojo
Yes.
[14:12] Ojo
It's been a while, hasn't it?
[14:15] Ojo
I'm a raider, so would
someone play defense for me?
[14:19] Yoigoshi
Of course, I'll be the one doing it.
[14:21] Yoigoshi
I'm curious to see what
you can do, after all.
[14:23] Azemichi
I want to, too!
[14:24] Ojo
Thank you. Anyone else?
[14:26] Misumi
We're not wearing clothes
we can move in, so...
[14:29] Iura
I'll referee, so please
go ahead with two-on-one.
[14:32] Yoigoshi
What's with them?
[14:34] Yoigoshi
They're not interested
in the challenge at all?
[14:36] Yoigoshi
Well, he is just out of the hospital...
[14:39] Yoigoshi
and with such a slender build...

the strongest, but I don't believe you.

[15:24] Yoigoshi
Huh? Just now...
[15:27] Yoigoshi
Did he touch me?
[15:30] Yoigoshi
W-Wait! That one didn't count!
[15:32] Yoigoshi
I let my guard down! Let's go one more time!
[15:34] Ojo
I thought so.
[15:35] Ojo
Kei! Can we go again?
[15:37] Iura
I suppose you'll have to.
[15:38] Ojo
Yay!
[15:40] Azemichi
So, the captain's skill
works on you, too, Yoigoshi?
[15:43] Azemichi
Skill?
[15:45] Azemichi
I first met the captain
when I was fishing, and...
[15:50] (Flashback) Azemichi
No good, huh?
[15:59] (Flashback) Azemichi
Wow!
[16:01] Azemichi
Fishing in the winter is really hard.
[16:04] Azemichi
I asked how he caught so many.
[16:06] Azemichi
He said, "Offset your
breathing and your timing."
[16:09] Azemichi
"If you do that, living things
won't be able to react."
[16:12] Yoigoshi
Am I some kind of fish?
[16:14] Azemichi
The reality is, you weren't
able to do anything, right?
[16:18] Yoigoshi
I wasn't on my guard earlier.
[16:22] Ojo
Then, this time, let's get serious.
[16:25] Ojo; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[16:26] Yoigoshi
This time, I'll watch closely.
[16:29] Yoigoshi
A low stance, balanced for
both attack and evasion...
[16:33] Yoigoshi
A smooth, difficult to read, steady cant.
[16:37] Yoigoshi
And he's very likely keeping me and
Azemichi at the edges of his vision.
[16:42] Yoigoshi
An obscure line of sight.
[16:44] Yoigoshi
Huh?
[16:46] Yoigoshi
That means I don't know
anything about anything.
[16:48] Ojo
Kabaddi.
[16:53] Ojo
Kabaddi!
[16:58] Yoigoshi
From the side?
[16:59] Yoigoshi
I thought he was in front of me!
[17:01] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[17:03] Yoigoshi
He's pursuing hard!
[17:05] Azemichi
Leave it to me!
[17:10] Yoi/Aze
He didn't come in?!
[17:12] Ojo
Kabaddi.
[17:14] Azemichi
No way. I thought I was in his blind spot.
[17:17] Ojo; background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[17:17] Yoigoshi
He read us completely.
[17:22] Yoigoshi
It isn't just speed, is it?
[17:24] Yoigoshi
When I think you won't come, you do.
[17:26] Yoigoshi
When I think you're coming, you don't.
[17:27] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[17:28] Yoigoshi
Is your specialty the feint?
[17:31] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
SIGN I'm doing the cant right now...
SIGN I'm doing the cant right now...
[17:33] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[17:34] Yoigoshi
You can stop your cant!
[17:35] Yoigoshi
The next one will be the real one.
[17:38] Ojo
Asking a question in the middle
of a match. That's interesting.
[17:42] Ojo
But you're a little off.
[17:43] Ojo
My skill isn't quite as civilized as a feint.
[17:46] Ojo
I won't tell you any more yet.
[17:48] Yoigoshi
Well, that's petty of you.
[17:49] Yoigoshi
Then, how about my next question?
[17:51] Ojo
Hm?
[17:52] Yoigoshi
If I can stop you,
would you say I'm strong?
[17:58] Ojo
Yes. Undoubtedly so.
[18:02] Iura
He's starting to sense something.
[18:03] Iura
That's Yoigoshi for you.
His instincts are good.
[18:06] Iura
Okay. This time really is the last time.
[18:08] Azemichi
Sir!
[18:10] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:12] Yoigoshi
Under normal circumstances,
human movement is mostly predictable.
[18:15] Yoigoshi
The placement of the center of gravity,
areas of tension, line of sight.
[18:15] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:20] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:21] Yoigoshi
But I don't feel anything from this guy.
[18:23] Yoigoshi
If I can't read him, then all I can
do is use my reflexes to evade...
[18:26] Yoigoshi
so that I can't be read either...
[18:26] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:28] Yoigoshi
Just like him...
[18:30] Ojo
Kabaddi...
[18:37] Ojo
Kabaddi.
[18:40] Iura
He's copying the captain?!
[18:43] Ojo
Kabaddi.
[18:45] Yoigoshi
Blast! I let him get away!
[18:48] Azemichi
Yoigoshi! What did you just do?
[18:50] Yoigoshi
Huh? Nothing. I just spaced out!
[18:52] Misumi
You're kidding me. What was that?
[18:54] Date
I don't know.
[18:55] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:58] Ojo
Kabaddi...
[18:59] narrator
The unconscious copying of a
man who excels at learning.
[19:03] narrator
The "scent of the exceptional"
they had spoken of began to rise.
[19:08] narrator
However, there was one more
beast giving off that scent.
[19:14] Ojo
Kabaddi!
[19:17] Yoigoshi
Is he angry? No... He's smiling.
[19:20] Yoigoshi
Either way, this scent...
[19:26] Ojo
Kabaddi.
[19:27] Yoigoshi
Clear motions of attack! It's a feint.
[19:32] narrator
Struggle!
[19:33] Yoigoshi
It wasn't! It was just what it looked like!
[19:35] Ojo
Kabaddi...
[19:36] Yoigoshi
I can't anticipate him! His movements
are totally different from before!
[19:43] narrator
In general, the raider's arm
is unsuitable for a take down.
[19:46] narrator
Impulsively grabbing it means
[19:47] narrator
you either believe you can
win through strength,
[19:50] narrator
or that you are, quite simply, afraid.
[20:00] Yoigoshi
Why...
[20:03] Yoigoshi
Why am I on the ground?
[20:06] Yoigoshi
Was I taken down? By him?
[20:11] Ojo
Kabaddi...
[20:13] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[20:20] Ojo
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[20:23] Iura
He made it back!
[20:26] Ojo
Yay! Two points!
[20:35] Ojo
This really is fun.
[20:37] Iura
Too much fun.
[20:39] Iura
You completely switched on
at the end there, didn't you?
[20:42] Iura
You'll hurt yourself again.
[20:43] Ojo
That was the first time
anyone has ever copied me.
[20:47] Ojo
I was just so happy.
[20:48] Yoigoshi
Copying you wasn't something
I did out of logic.
[20:51] Yoigoshi
More importantly, how did
you take me down at the end?
[20:53] Ojo
It was a type of counter.
[20:56] Ojo
It's used in boxing and stuff.
[20:58] Yoigoshi
A counter?
[20:59] Yoigoshi
Even though I hadn't attacked?
[21:01] Ojo
Even so, you breathe, don't you?
[21:04] Ojo
Sudden actions...
[21:06] Ojo
When people go to use their strength,
they always either stop breathing or exhale.
[21:12] Ojo
Thinking about it in reverse, when you
inhale, you are very nearly unguarded.
[21:16] Ojo
If I match my max to that moment,
[21:19] Ojo
both touching and tackling become simple.
[21:21] Ojo
I'm not good in a
"ready, go" situation, though.
[21:25] Yoigoshi
I couldn't sense anything from this guy.
[21:28] Yoigoshi
He didn't let me sense anything,
and then, a counter...
[21:31] Yoigoshi
No wonder he's a pain to deal with.
[21:33] Yoigoshi
On top of that, this guy is...
[21:37] Yoigoshi
still hiding something from me!
[21:41] Iura
Our captain's been playing kabaddi
as a raider for over ten years!
[21:44] Yoigoshi
Ten years?
[21:45] Yoigoshi
You little... How could you tell me
to go be "the strongest raider"?!
[21:49] Iura
What's this? Yoigoshi, are you giving up?
[21:54] Yoigoshi
Don't be stupid.
[21:56] Yoigoshi
I've only just seen the way ahead.
[21:58] Yoigoshi
I'll do it.
[22:01] Ojo
Oh, that's right!
[22:02] Ojo
Yoigoshi-kun, there's something
important I forgot to tell you.
[22:06] Ojo
My name. Now that I think about it,
I haven't told you yet, have I?
[22:12] Yoigoshi
It's fine.
[22:13] Ojo
Huh?
[22:15] Yoigoshi
I can just call you "Captain," right?
SIGN Next Time "The Match Begins!!!"
[23:49] background
Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[23:50] Yoigoshi
Next time, "The Match Begins!!!"
[23:52] background
Kabaddi!
