    and, in the end, he heard voices cheering.

    That was how Takaya Ren, who knew what
    it was to be number one, spent his days.

[02:05] Yoigoshi
    We haven't built up momentum yet.
[02:07] Yoigoshi
    First, we need to crush
    the cat-eyed jerk.
[02:09] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[02:13] Yoigoshi
    He really is fast!
[02:15] Yoigoshi
    But...
[02:15] Yoigoshi
    not as fast as our captain!
[02:16] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[02:20] Yoigoshi
    Where do you think you're looking?!
[02:22] Misumi
    Idiot! That's way too
    close to enemy territory!
[02:24] Iura
    No. He hasn't noticed!

    He can make it back!

    Stop him, Yoigoshi!
SIGN    Bonus Line
[02:40] Iura
    We have five on defense right now!
[02:42] Iura
    He's trying to get another point
    by crossing the bonus line!
[02:44] narrator
    Bonus!
[02:46] Yoigoshi
    So that's what it was!
[02:48] Takaya

[02:57] Misumi
    If we take him down, this won't matter!
[02:59] Misumi
    Huh?
[03:01] Misumi
    What?
[03:02] Yoigoshi
    He went outside the court?
SIGN    Souwa Noukin
[03:16] Yoigoshi
    You left the court!
[03:18] Iura
    He only touched the ground
    within his territory.
[03:20] Iura
    The points count.
[03:22] Takenaka
    One point for crossing the bonus line.
    Three points by touching.
[03:26] Takenaka
    That's four points total!
[03:28] Takaya
    I'm tired of hearing it.
[03:31] Takaya
    I'm tired of hearing the complaints of
    losers and the cheers of the crowd.
[03:35] Yoigoshi
    Losers?
[03:37] Takaya
    This is how you use long arms and legs.
[03:41] Takaya
    You shouldn't be satisfied
    with just three points.
SIGN    OUT: Yoigoshi, Misumi, Iura
[03:45] Iura
    We're out. We need to
    leave the court, Yoigoshi.
[03:49] Yoigoshi
    The way he looks down on us! We need
    to get points on the raid again!
[03:54] Yoigoshi
    Wait, we don't have a raider
    on the court right now!
[03:58] Date
    I'll go.
[04:00] Azemichi
    What?
[04:00] Date
    It's normal to be nervous your first match.

    Don't be intimidated.
    We've got five on defense here.
[04:16] Takaya
    Yeah. Those are the footsteps
    of someone with no speed.
[04:19] Date
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[04:19] Takaya
    I'll stop him.
[04:21] Takaya
    And I'll leave the rest to you!
[04:24] Date
    Kabaddi!
[04:25] Takaya
    Seriously?
[04:27] Kisaki
    Whoa!
[04:28] Misumi
    He's flailing all over the place.
    There's no way to get close to that.
[04:31] Takaya
    Come on! Somebody, hurry up!
[04:34] Rokugen
    Yes.
[04:35] Rokugen
    Leave it to me!
[04:42] crowd 1
    Wow! That looked so easy!
[04:44] Souwa team member
    Nice anti, Captain Rokugen!
[04:46] Misumi
    He got Shin... with just one hand?
[04:49] referee
    Number four, out!
SIGN    Souwa Noukin
SIGN    Raid Failed: Date OUT
    Souwa: 1 point Gained
[04:52] Iura
    This is bad.
[04:54] Iura
    Failing to get Takaya out was bad,
[04:57] Iura
    but to have our strongest power player
    taken down with one hand...
[05:00] Iura
    that's rough, psychologically.
[05:02] Iura
    Is this what you were aiming for, Rokugen?
[05:05] Rokugen
    Still, you have quite an impressive physique.
[05:08] Rokugen
    You must have put yourself through
    an immense amount of training.
[05:10] Date
    Thank you.
[05:12] Iura
    I guess he's not really the type.
[05:14] Rokugen
    The only shame is that it isn't
    a physique built for kabaddi yet.
[05:19] Rokugen
    You cannot win with brute strength alone.
[05:23] Rokugen
    I know that from experience.
[05:27] Yoigoshi
    Every single one of them is just...
[05:29] Iura
    Calm down. We need to do this rationally.
[05:32] Iura
    You, too, Azemichi! You're alone
    out there, but stay calm!
[05:34] Azemichi
    S-Sir!
[05:36] Yoigoshi
    What happens if everyone is out? Do we lose?
[05:39] Iura
    We don't lose, but it's called a "lona,"
SIGN    "Lona"
[05:42] Iura
    and in exchange for everyone returning to
    the court, the other team gets two points.
[05:47] Yoigoshi
    They get another two points?

SIGN    Defense
    Noukin / Azemichi
[05:48] Yoigoshi
    Make sure you stop him,
    Azemichi!
[05:51] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[05:53] Misumi
    He's completely tensed up.
[05:54] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[05:56] Iura
    It's because it's his first match.
[05:58] Date
    And just playing one-on-one
    in itself is rough.
[06:01] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:05] Azemichi
    Am I going to be able to take
    this guy down one-on-one?
[06:08] Azemichi
    A guy so big and so fast...
[06:12] Takaya
    Kabaddi!
[06:15] Azemichi
    What?
[06:17] Azemichi
    This is just the same as usual!
[06:19] Iura
    Looks like he's back.
[06:20] Iura
    He's moving well, don't you think?
[06:22] Iura
    When you're short, having a shorter
    reach is a disadvantage,
[06:25] Iura
    but since your center of gravity is stable,
    there's strength in even the small movements.
[06:29] Iura
    Most importantly,
[06:29] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:30] Iura
    when you're in a low position, it isn't easy
    for a raider to go in for a touch.
[06:32] Takaya
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:33] Iura
    They run the risk that their legs,
    their lifeline, will be caught.
[06:37] Yoigoshi
    So, even though Azemichi's on his own,
     if he can grab Takaya's legs...
[06:39] Iura
    That's right. He can take him down.
[06:41] Iura
    Plus, they're playing one-on-one.
    There's only one target.
[06:41] Takaya
    Kabaddi, Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[06:45] Iura
    Takaya will fight deep in the court.
[06:48] narrator
    If we were to show this situation
    another way, it would be... iai!
[06:51] narrator
    Each is trying to finish the
    other with a single killer blow.
[06:53] narrator
    No help is coming.
[06:55] Iura
    This scenario is one I've already thought of.
[06:58] Iura
    A leg-tackle from a low position.
[07:00] Iura
    I had Azemichi practice that exhaustively.
[07:03] Iura
    Even as he slammed his head into my knees,
    he did it over and over again.
[07:07] Takaya
    Kabaddi.
[07:11] narrator
    Struggle!
[07:15] Azemichi
    He's mine!
[07:18] Azemichi
    His weight disappeared?
[07:19] Azemichi
    It can't be!
[07:25] Takaya
    Kabaddi!
[07:27] Yoigoshi
    He shook him off?!
[07:29] Takaya
    Kabaddi.
[07:31] referee
    Souwa, raid successful!
[07:35] Takaya
    And I'll take the
    two-point lona, too, thanks!

SIGN    Souwa: Takaya Raid Successful
    Touch 1 pt + Lona 2 pts
    3 pts Gained
[07:46] Azemichi
    H-His reaction was insane...
[07:49] Azemichi
    You predicted that was coming, didn't you?
[07:53] Takaya
    'Course I did! That catch was so sharp,
    I figured you must've practiced a ton.
[07:58] Takaya
    That's why I dove deeper
    instead of dodging. Okay?
[08:03] Azemichi
    Yeah.
[08:04] Takaya
    It wasn't bad,
[08:05] Takaya
    but anyone who gets taken down
    by that is still second-rate.
SIGN    Previously taken down by that
[08:13] Ojo
    Takaya Ren. He's definitely first-rate.
[08:16] Ojo
    Deliberately crushing our strong points
    to show the difference in ability...
[08:21] Takenaka
    The momentum Yoigoshi created
    has completely disappeared.
[08:25] Narrator
    After that, the point
    spread continued to grow.
[08:29] Iura
    This isn't good.
[08:30] Yoigoshi
    A ten-point spread. Is that bad?
[08:32] Iura
    Having lots of points taken at once is bad.
[08:34] Iura
    We've lost antis, so we're still
    at a disadvantage in numbers.
[08:37] Iura
    When fewer players on defense,
    you can't stop raids you normally could.
[08:42] Iura
    First, let's get our stances solid.
[08:44] Iura
    Yoigoshi, your match with
    Takaya will have to—
[08:46] Yoigoshi
    I know!
[08:47] Yoigoshi
    There's no point if we lose the match.
[08:49] Yoigoshi
    I'll be back.
[08:51] Yoigoshi
    Kabaddi!
[08:52] Rokugen
    Will he target Takaya again?
[08:54] Takaya
    Look at him, all fired up.
[08:56] Yoigoshi
    Kabaddi!
[08:58] Rokugen
    He's fast!
[08:59] Rokugen
    But rashly traveling deep
    into the court is reckless.
[09:01] Rokugen
    A five-man defense can easily cut
    off a raider's lines of escape!
[09:05] Takaya
    And we're done here.
[09:06] Yoigoshi
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[09:07] Takaya
    Your retreat has been blocked off.
[09:09] Yoigoshi
    Kabaddi!
[09:11] Murotani
    Wasn't he gunning for Takaya?
[09:12] Yoigoshi
    If a single blow isn't enough
    to create momentum for us,
[09:14] Yoigoshi
    then first, I'll reduce their defense!
[09:17] Murotani
    There's nowhere to run!
[09:18] Kisaki
    No, he's got reach! Watch the outside!
[09:21] Yoigoshi
    The outside, you say?
[09:22] Yoigoshi
    For me...
[09:24] Yoigoshi
    there's this!
[09:26] narrator
    Struggle!
[09:28] Takenaka
    That's something we're used to seeing.
[09:29] soccer team 1
    A feint, huh?
[09:30] soccer team 1
    Without a ball, he's even faster!
[09:33] Yoigoshi
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[09:33] Yoigoshi
    Okay. That's two out.
[09:35] Yoigoshi
    We'll have all our members on defense.
[09:37] Yoigoshi
    We can start over from here.
[09:39] Yoigoshi
    Just watch, Takaya.
[09:41] Yoigoshi
    Where'd he go?

[09:55] Yoigoshi
    He...
[09:56] Yoigoshi
    He was right behind me?!
[09:59] Yoigoshi
    This is bad.
[10:00] Yoigoshi
    At this rate, it's the same
    as playing four-on-one!
[10:03] Yoigoshi
    Plus, Misumi and Azemichi
    only just came back!
[10:05] narrator
    Struggle!

[10:21] Souwa team
    Nice chase!
[10:23] Yoigoshi
    "Chase"?
[10:25] Iura
    An attack strategy where, as soon
    as we returned to our territory,
[10:27] Iura
    they attacked with no time gap.
[10:29] Yoigoshi
    Is that allowed?
[10:31] Iura
    As long as the raider hasn't been tackled
    when returning to home territory,
[10:33] Iura
    there's no rule against it.
[10:35] Iura
    You have to get close to the raider as they
    head back, so there's risk to it, too.
[10:40] Yoigoshi
    I see!
[10:42] Yoigoshi
    If I'd been more guarded about my rear,
[10:43] Takaya; background
    Yikes!
[10:43] Yoigoshi
    it might have been possible for me
    to touch him right before returning!
[10:47] Yoigoshi
    Damn it!
[10:48] Iura
    I'm sorry. I should have
    taught you about that.
[10:52] Iura
    He timed his attack for the
    moment we were trying to start over.
[10:55] Iura
    He really is a nasty one.
[10:57] Iura
    And the ones he touched were our

[15:09] Noukin
    Captain!
[15:10] Ojo
    It's too early to be happy.
[15:12] Ojo
    Let's crush Rokugen and get a lona.
[15:15] Noukin
    Yeah!
[15:16] Rokugen
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[15:20] Yoigoshi
    Is he smiling?
[15:21] Yoigoshi
    If he gets taken down, it's a lona.
[15:23] Yoigoshi
    I should have the advantage in speed.
    I'll draw him deep into the court.
[15:24] ---
    Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[15:27] Rokugen
    Kabaddi.
[15:29] Yoigoshi
    The same as the captain?
[15:31] Yoigoshi
    That was close!
[15:32] Rokugen
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[15:33] Yoigoshi
    I can't sense anything.
    It's hard to read him!
[15:37] Rokugen
    Kabaddi!
[15:39] Ojo
    Rokugen, you've changed.
[15:41] Ojo
    You're no longer all about power.
[15:43] Eikura
    He's good at circling around!
[15:45] Kisaki
    He's built so slim,
    and he goes in that boldly?
[15:48] Ojo
    I'll draw him in.
[15:49] Ojo
    If three, no, four of us don't go in at once,
    tackling will be too dangerous.
[15:53] Yoigoshi
    Four of us?
[15:54] Rokugen
    There is no need for that.
[15:55] Rokugen
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi.
[16:00] Date
    H-He went back?
[16:02] Misumi
    We're not in the struggle, right?
[16:05] referee
    Souwa, bonus point gained!
[16:08] Yoigoshi
    Blast! He'd crossed the bonus line?
[16:10] Yoigoshi
    Huh? Wait... When it's
    just the bonus, then...
[16:14] Iura
    They get one point, that's all.
[16:15] Iura
    No one is out, and none of
    their players come back.
[16:19] Yoigoshi
    Why'd he do that? Did he just get
    tired of attacking and head back?
[16:22] Ojo
    Rokugen, that wasn't good, as a captain.
[16:25] Ojo
    Do you really want to play
    me one-on-one that badly?
[16:29] Rokugen
    This is the only opportunity.
[16:31] Rokugen
    The players outside the court will come
    back in the order they were tagged out.
[16:35] Rokugen
    If I send a single player out, my chance
    to play you one-on-one disappears.
[16:40] Rokugen
    It's been about three years now...
[16:41] Rokugen
    Ever since we parted ways,
[16:44] Rokugen
    catching you, and defeating you,
    has been my number one goal!
[16:48] Rokugen
    Though they may call me
    the head of this team,
[16:50] Rokugen
    I am an anti, just a simple hunter.
[16:54] Rokugen
    I will drive out the beast
    known as Ojo Masato!
[16:58] Rokugen
    I am just a hunter!

[17:07] Iura
    To the best of my knowledge,
    they are the strongest anti and raider.
[17:12] Iura
    It will happen in a flash.
    Burn it into your memory.
[17:15] Ojo
    Kabaddi, kabaddi...
[17:18] Ojo
    I've kept you waiting quite
    a while, haven't I...
[17:20] Rokugen
    It's because you picked a place like Noukin.
[17:22] Rokugen
    Until I became captain, I couldn't
    set up any practice matches.
[17:28] Ojo
    You chose a powerhouse school.
    Did anything change?
[17:34] Rokugen
    That would be a touch,
    if I were who I used to be...
[17:38] Rokugen
    No, the powerhouse team
    had nothing to do with it!
[17:42] Rokugen
    I have changed because of you, Ojo!
SIGN    Summer, Five Years Earlier
    National Middle School Kabaddi Team Selection Practice Venue
[17:50] Rokugen
    I was born with the right build...
[17:52] Rokugen
    Among the selection candidates,
    I stood out conspicuously.
[17:56] Rokugen
    But in this power-based sport, kabaddi,
    there was one more man who stood out.
[18:03] (Flashback) Rokugen
    Why can't I beat you?
[18:05] (Flashback) Rokugen
    If I could catch just one finger,
    I could take you down!
[18:07] (Flashback) Ojo
    Rokugen, it's because you think like that.
[18:10] (Flashback) Ojo
    You rely too much on your strength.
[18:12] (Flashback) Ojo
    The most important thing is to make
    sure your movements can't be read.
[18:16] (Flashback) Ojo
    Natural, stable movements come from
    steadily building a foundation.
[18:22] Rokugen
    The man who had been
    born with the slightest build
[18:25] Rokugen
    continued to hone the weapons
    that remained to him.
[18:29] Rokugen
    The frustration of losing was far
    outweighed by my admiration for him.
[18:33] Rokugen
    He fought against the weak
    body he'd been given,
[18:35] Rokugen
    and gained strength.
    If I could beat him, then...
[18:38] Rokugen
    I felt I'd receive something even greater
    than a medal celebrating a win...
[18:43] Rokugen
    The rough, mud-stained
    medal of a hard worker!
[18:47] Rokugen
    I've got him!
[18:49] Rokugen
    He dodged?
[18:50] Rokugen
    No! He left his foot there to draw me in?
[18:53] Date
    Still no struggle.
[18:55] Misumi
    There aren't any openings!
[18:57] Yoigoshi
    Is his cant gonna hold up?
[18:58] Ojo
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[18:59] Rokugen
    Returning without a touch...
    He wouldn't do that.
[19:02] Rokugen
    Or could it be that his legs
    aren't in their best condition?
[19:05] Ojo
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[19:05] Murotani
    Captain Rokugen isn't losing
    out in terms of agility, either!
[19:08] Kisaki
    No, the other guy is really something else!
[19:11] Kiseki
    He injured his legs, didn't he?
[19:13] Takaya
    How did he hurt his legs anyway?
[19:16] Rokugen
    Injured?
[19:18] Ojo
    Kabaddi!
[19:20] Rokugen
    Focus! Stay focused!
[19:23] Eikura
    If you play kabaddi,
    you're gonna get injured.
[19:25] Takaya
    He's not the kind of guy who'd let
    himself get hurt, though, right?
[19:28] Takaya
    I can't imagine anyone took him down.
[19:31] Ojo
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[19:31] Rokugen
    Ojo...
[19:32] Rokugen
    How much have you practiced
    these last three years?
[19:36] Ojo
    Kabaddi.
[19:38] Ojo
    Kabaddi, kabaddi, kabaddi...
[19:38] Rokugen
    You... It can't be that your legs...
[19:41] Rokugen
    that you're the one who...
[19:44] Ojo
    Kabaddi!
[19:47] narrator
    Struggle!
[19:49] Rokugen
    He came in while I was distracted!
[19:53] Rokugen
    I will stop you!
[19:55] Rokugen
    The moment he touches down, the hunt is over!
[19:57] Rokugen
    H-He's so fast!
[19:59] Rokugen
    The speed at which he can spin around...
[20:07] Ojo
    For me, kabaddi is like a beautiful
    woman high up on a pedestal.
[20:12] Ojo
    If you don't train yourself
    harder than anyone else,
[20:15] Ojo
    she'll never turn to look at you.
[20:17] Ojo
    You may be chasing me, but you've
    still got a long ways to go.
[20:21] Ojo
    The difference between you and me, Rokugen...
[20:24] Ojo
    is the difference in our love for kabaddi.
[20:28] Rokugen
    Love?

    D-Don't let it bother you, Rokugen-san.
[20:43] Rokugen
    What was that?
[20:44] Rokugen
    "That's not good, as a captain," huh?
[20:46] Rokugen
    How does a guy who wrecked his legs through
    overwork have the right to say that?
[20:51] Takaya
    So, he is that type after all, huh?
[20:53] Takaya
    Rokugen-san, you lost,
    but you look pretty happy.
[20:56] Rokugen
    I'm sorry.
[20:57] Takaya
    I like that type, too.
[21:00] Takaya
    And I like sinking them even more.
[21:04] Misumi
    Nice raid, Captain!
[21:07] Ojo
    This is just the start!
[21:08] Yoigoshi
    He wiped them out in just two raids.
[21:11] Yoigoshi
    The atmosphere is better, too.
[21:13] Yoigoshi
    But what is this I'm feeling?
[21:15] Yoigoshi
    I'm so frustrated!

[21:40] Ojo
    If we take the bonus like we did just now,
     and get a lona, we'll be tied.
[21:44] Ojo
    That seems doable, right?
[21:48] Rpkugen
    The timing of the end of the
    first half works for them...
[21:51] Rokugen
    Did Ojo deliberately aim for that?
[21:53] Rokugen
    He didn't have that sort of
    meticulous nature before.
[21:56] Iura
    It's possible to build momentum this way, too.

    Now, let's head to the bench.

    Oh, and make sure you all
    look like Yoigoshi...
