**[00:00] ---**
Go, Tsubasa, Misaki.
**[00:02] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[00:04] ---**
*Go, Tsubasa.*
**[00:07] ---**
Misaki.
**[00:11] ---**
*Pierre!*
**[00:12] ---**
*That's right,
if I can get by Pierre on my own,*
**[00:16] ---**
*then that raises our chances
of tying the score.*
**[00:18] ---**
*Misaki going to get past Pierre
by himself.*
**[00:22] ---**
Misaki.
**[00:23] ---**
Misaki!
**[00:28] ---**
*Technique versus technique.*
**[00:30] ---**
*It's a clash of two talents.*
**[00:33] ---**
*Which will it be?*
**[00:35] ---**
*Breaking through or defending?*
**[00:37] ---**
*Will Japan or France come out the winner?*
**[00:43] ---**
*The victory song goes to France.*
**[00:46] ---**
*Pierre makes a skilled tackle.*
**[00:49] ---**
*Sorry, guys.*
**[00:52] ---**
It's not over yet.
**[00:54] ---**
Soccer is not a one-on-one sport.
**[00:56] ---**
It's played by helping each other out.
**[00:59] ---**
There.
**[01:00] ---**
-What?
-Sorimachi.
**[01:02] ---**
*Ball goes to Tsubasa in front of the goal.*
**[01:04] ---**
*Sorimachi!*
**[01:06] ---**
I won't let him in the goal.
**[01:07] ---**
Don't let him shoot.
**[01:08] ---**
*We finally got this chance,
and I don't want to waste it.*
**[01:11] ---**
*The situation may not be perfect,
but I have to shoot.*
**[01:14] ---**
*There's no other choice.*
**[01:15] ---**
H-Here it comes.
**[01:16] ---**
Block the shot.
**[01:19] ---**
Huh, what?
**[01:21] ---**
*Tsubasa with a big pass behind him.*
**[01:26] ---**
Go for it, Hyuga.
**[01:28] ---**
Oh, crap.
**[01:29] ---**
*Hyuga comes running in.*
**[01:34] ---**
No one's gonna complain about this now.
**[01:37] ---**
I won't let you shoot.
**[01:39] ---**
Please, Hyuga, our hearts and souls are
betting on that ball. You gotta make it!
**[01:42] ---**
Take that! Behold my Tiger Shot...
**[01:48] ---**
Behold the wrath of Team Japan!
**[02:00] ---**
*Hyuga's Tiger Shot is in!*
**[02:04] ---**
*It's 3-2!*
**[02:05] ---**
*Seven minutes into the second half
Japan makes it a one-point match.*
**[02:10] ---**
Nice shot, Hyuga.
**[02:12] ---**
Good job, Hyuga.
**[02:15] ---**
See that? Now that's a goal.
**[02:30] ---**
CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
**[03:51] ---**
*Hyuga's Tiger Shot explodes!
Now that's a goal.*

EPISODE 22
THE ELEGANT BEAST ATTACKS
**[03:57] ---**
You did it, Hyuga.
**[03:58] ---**
Nice shot!
**[03:59] ---**
He did it!
**[04:01] ---**
One more point! One more point!
**[04:03] ---**
All right, one more point, guys.
**[04:06] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:07] ---**
*Japan continues to fight
with ten players on the pitch,*
**[04:09] ---**
but seven minutes into the second half,
they make it 3-2, just one goal away.
**[04:14] ---**
*Pierre.*
**[04:15] ---**
*From defense to offense,
they help each other and play as a team.*
**[04:19] ---**
*This, folks, is what
JBOY'S soccer is all about.*
**[04:23] ---**
Pierre.
**[04:25] ---**
They covered for their missing player,
and they defended.
**[04:29] ---**
Then they attacked en masse.
**[04:32] ---**
It's not South American or European.
It's Japanese soccer.
**[04:37] ---**
And we'll just have to show 'em
our champagne soccer.
**[04:43] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[04:44] ---**
*I'll grab another goal. It's a promise.*
**[04:58] ---**
*And we're back.
Japan is now within one point.*
**[05:02] ---**
*The question is,
will this rain prove lucky for them?*
**[05:06] ---**
Just as we thought, Japan's hanging tough.
**[05:09] ---**
Yeah. They came back from
a three-point deficit against us
**[05:12] ---**
and are playing in the semifinals.
**[05:14] ---**
They may have only ten players,
but they're not giving up.
**[05:19] ---**
*Tsubasa.*
**[05:21] ---**
*France looks to Elle Sid Pierre
to set up the match.*
**[05:26] ---**
Pierre.
**[05:27] ---**
Let's go, Misaki.
**[05:29] ---**
Tsubasa!
**[05:32] ---**
If we both go,
we should be able to get it.
**[05:35] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:36] ---**
On France's honor,
I'm not giving up this ball.
**[05:40] ---**
*Tsubasa and Misaki
are both headed towards Pierre.*
**[05:44] ---**
Pierre!
**[05:45] ---**
*It's a double tackle
by Tsubasa and Misaki.*
**[05:52] ---**
*Oh, Pierre gets around
the Golden Duo's tackle*
**[05:57] ---**
*and blows by them in no time.*
**[05:59] ---**
*What speed! What a beautiful maneuver!*
**[06:03] ---**
Tsubasa and Misaki.
**[06:04] ---**
Pierre!
**[06:05] ---**
I'm still here.
**[06:07] ---**
*Hyuga from Japan attacks.*
**[06:11] ---**
*Oh, he dodges this one too.*
**[06:13] ---**
What?
**[06:14] ---**
Take that, Japan!
**[06:15] ---**
You'll be two points behind again!
**[06:18] ---**
*He lands and quickly shoots!*
**[06:21] ---**
*Behold, the elegant beast himself,
Elle Sid Pierre.*
**[06:24] ---**
Wakashimazu, it's a Slider Shot.
It'll go straight, but then curve.
**[06:29] ---**
All right, Tsubasa.
**[06:33] ---**
*He got it!*
**[06:34] ---**
*It's as if he predicted the exact
trajectory of this tricky shot.*
**[06:37] ---**
*Wakashimazu with a diving catch!*
**[06:40] ---**
*Japan doesn't give France
an additional point.*
**[06:43] ---**
*We can't give any more points away.*
**[06:45] ---**
Nice, Wakashimazu!
**[06:47] ---**
*The European tour and this tournament
have provided Wakashimazu*
**[06:50] ---**
*with the experience of having to handle
all kinds of formidable shots.*
**[06:55] ---**
*He will always get the second one.*
**[06:57] ---**
*Nice save, Wakashimazu.*
**[07:00] ---**
Go!
**[07:01] ---**
All right, let's go.
**[07:03] ---**
We're not done yet.
**[07:05] ---**
Pierre isn't the only one on this team.
**[07:10] ---**
*It's quickly intercepted.*
**[07:12] ---**
Go!
**[07:14] ---**
You may've gotten a point,
but we'll take it right back.
**[07:16] ---**
Get the ball back right away.
**[07:19] ---**
Pierre.
**[07:20] ---**
*The ball is back with Pierre.*
**[07:22] ---**
*Will he shoot again?*
**[07:24] ---**
-Here.
-All right.
**[07:26] ---**
*A one-two return to Napoleon
in front of the goal.*
**[07:29] ---**
*But Izawa is marking Napoleon.*
**[07:32] ---**
You're not getting through.
**[07:33] ---**
Why, you.
**[07:37] ---**
I'm getting the goal!
**[07:39] ---**
*Napoleon aggressively shakes off
Izawa's mark.*
**[07:46] ---**
Cannon Shot!
**[07:51] ---**
*And he shoots.*
**[07:57] ---**
*But Wakashimazu stops this one too.*
**[07:59] ---**
What?
**[08:03] ---**
*And the loose ball...*
**[08:05] ---**
Got it.
**[08:07] ---**
*Bossis shoots!*
**[08:09] ---**
*Goal! It's in!*
**[08:13] ---**
*France makes it
a two-point difference again.*
**[08:16] ---**
Yeah, way to go, France.
**[08:19] ---**
Nice shot, Bossis.
**[08:25] ---**
Guys.
**[08:29] ---**
No goal.
**[08:30] ---**
What?
**[08:31] ---**
*France's goal is denied.*
**[08:34] ---**
*It's a foul on Napoleon for pushing
through in his previous move.*
**[08:38] ---**
N-No way.
**[08:40] ---**
Phew.
**[08:42] ---**
That ref isn't just on France's side.
**[08:46] ---**
*A referee must always be impartial.*
**[08:50] ---**
I-Izawa.
**[08:51] ---**
*Izawa is down!*
**[08:57] ---**
*He looks to have injured his shin,
I see blood.*
**[09:00] ---**
-Izawa!
-Are you all right?
**[09:03] ---**
*Will he be able to continue?*
**[09:06] ---**
Coach! Let me go in.
**[09:13] ---**
Misugi.
**[09:15] ---**
Izawa, can you stand?
**[09:16] ---**
So much blood.
**[09:18] ---**
*I think this means Izawa is out.*
**[09:21] ---**
*He leaves the pitch
supported by his team mates.*
**[09:25] ---**
Coach.
**[09:27] ---**
I played over thirty minutes
in the Tokyo tournament finals.
**[09:31] ---**
I can do twenty minutes
in the second half. Put me in.
**[09:38] ---**
All right.
**[09:39] ---**
*Misugi subs in for Izawa.*
**[09:43] ---**
*He started mid-match against Argentina*
**[09:46] ---**
*and scored a goal
with a mesmerizing overhead kick.*
**[09:49] ---**
*It's the Young Noble of the Field.*
**[09:51] ---**
*Jun Misugi.
Japan's secret weapon is on the pitch.*
**[09:55] ---**
He's...
**[09:56] ---**
...the one who got
the fifth goal against Argentina.
**[10:00] ---**
Good job, Izawa.
**[10:02] ---**
I'm counting on you, Misugi.
**[10:04] ---**
All right.
**[10:05] ---**
Guys, leave the defense to me.
Including marking Napoleon.
**[10:09] ---**
Misugi.
**[10:10] ---**
But in return, I need you
on offense, Tsubasa.
**[10:13] ---**
Okay.
**[10:14] ---**
*And a free kick
by Japan restarts the match.*
**[10:18] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[10:19] ---**
*To Captain Tsubasa.*
**[10:21] ---**
Let's go, Pierre.
**[10:23] ---**
*Tsubasa deliberately heads towards
the French captain, Pierre.*
**[10:29] ---**
*The French general Elle Sid Pierre.*
**[10:32] ---**
*If I get by him,
our morale will sky rocket,*
**[10:34] ---**
*and it'll be a major blow to France.*
**[10:37] ---**
*Tsubasa thinks the same way.*
**[10:41] ---**
*Great strategy, Tsubasa.*
**[10:42] ---**
*Get by him, and you'll change
the course of this entire match.*
**[10:47] ---**
*It's a duel between captains.*
**[10:50] ---**
*Come on, it's showtime, Elle Sid Pierre.*
**[10:52] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[10:54] ---**
Pierre.
**[10:56] ---**
Everyone in France is depending on me.
**[10:59] ---**
*Will Tsubasa get by him?
Or will Pierre shut him down?*
**[11:03] ---**
*I can't lose.*
**[11:07] ---**
*I was born into a rich family.*
**[11:09] ---**
*Being the son of a billionaire...*
**[11:11] ---**
*That's the only reason.*
**[11:13] ---**
Vandalism again.
**[11:17] ---**
*People were jealous of me.*
**[11:20] ---**
Master Pierre, what shall I get you today?
**[11:24] ---**
Hey, I told you,
quit standing around here gawking.
**[11:26] ---**
*And others treated me
better than they should have.*
**[11:30] ---**
*Just when I had had enough of it all,
I discovered soccer.*
**[11:36] ---**
*None of that matters in soccer.*
**[11:39] ---**
*Everyone plays by the same rules,
and the same conditions.*
**[11:42] ---**
*Your background, your wealth,
it's all irrelevant.*
**[11:44] ---**
*We all go after the same ball.*
**[11:48] ---**
*I came to love this sport called soccer.*
**[11:56] ---**
Elle!
**[11:58] ---**
*So...*
**[11:59] ---**
*I won't lose to anyone.
Not in soccer, the game I love.*
**[12:10] ---**
*Ouch! There's a head-on collision.*
**[12:14] ---**
*Pierre wins this one.*
**[12:16] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[12:17] ---**
*Even Tsubasa couldn't handle it.*
**[12:19] ---**
Good, Pierre! Way to go.
**[12:22] ---**
*France wins the duel of captains.
This is sure to fire up the team.*
**[12:26] ---**
Okay, let's go.
**[12:28] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:29] ---**
Crap.
**[12:30] ---**
They're on a roll
and are coming to attack.
**[12:32] ---**
Everyone, calm down.
**[12:34] ---**
Misugi.
**[12:35] ---**
Let's go, defense.
**[12:39] ---**
*A quick attack from France
by the playmaker Pierre.*
**[12:42] ---**
Napoleon.
**[12:43] ---**
Yo.
**[12:45] ---**
*Pass into Napoleon!*
**[12:46] ---**
*It goes through cleanly.*
**[12:50] ---**
*Oh, but he's offside.*
**[12:53] ---**
What?
**[12:56] ---**
Napoleon.
**[12:57] ---**
Yo.
**[13:00] ---**
*That Number 24 gave the signal
and the defense line moved up.*
**[13:08] ---**
*An offside trap by Japan.*
**[13:12] ---**
All right, we did it.
**[13:15] ---**
We can do it, too.
**[13:17] ---**
That's right.
**[13:18] ---**
We practiced this trick with Misugi.
**[13:21] ---**
*They gave France back their offside trap.*
**[13:25] ---**
Nice, Japan.
**[13:27] ---**
I don't believe it.
**[13:30] ---**
*The ball once again
goes from Misugi to Tsubasa.*
**[13:33] ---**
*Tsubasa couldn't get by Pierre.*
**[13:35] ---**
*What tactic will he use this time?*
**[13:38] ---**
All right.
**[13:40] ---**
What's this?
**[13:43] Sign**
CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
**[13:49] Sign**
BIRTH DATE DECEMBER 20 / HEIGHT 169 CM
WEIGHT 56 KG / BLOOD TYPE O
**[13:53] ---**
*Once again, Tsubasa heads for Pierre.*
**[13:57] ---**
-What?
-Tsubasa!
**[13:59] ---**
*Today, in this match,
getting by Pierre is everything!*
**[14:03] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[14:05] ---**
*Three years ago,
it was another rainy semifinal.*
**[14:08] ---**
*Misugi's skills almost made me give up.*
**[14:14] ---**
*No matter how strong my opponent,
I'll never give up.*
**[14:19] ---**
*No matter how many times I lose,
I'll keep going back until I win.*
**[14:22] ---**
*That's how I'll make it
to world number one.*
**[14:26] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[14:28] ---**
*It's a one-on-one
between Tsubasa and Pierre.*
**[14:31] ---**
*What's with this guy?*
**[14:33] ---**
*You already tried once
and couldn't get by me.*
**[14:35] ---**
*And still, he comes head on at me.*
**[14:40] ---**
Is your confidence telling you
you can actually get by me?
**[14:44] ---**
Or are you just stupid?
**[14:46] ---**
So call me stupid, I'm stupid for soccer.
**[14:49] ---**
I'll get by you this time!
It's all about the speed.
**[15:03] ---**
*He got by! From a steady dribble
to searing speed in a second.*
**[15:07] ---**
*It's a battle between the elegant beast
and the free-flying falcon.*
**[15:11] ---**
*Tsubasa won this one.*
**[15:14] ---**
Pierre.
**[15:15] ---**
Tsubasa!
**[15:16] ---**
*Tsubasa's dribble continues to gain speed
even after getting by Pierre.*
**[15:21] ---**
N-No way.
**[15:23] ---**
*France, on the other hand,*
**[15:24] ---**
*Captain Pierre can't hide
his surprise at being passed.*
**[15:28] ---**
*Roberto taught me this dribble.*
**[15:31] ---**
*And Roberto may already be
on a flight back to Brazil.*
**[15:37] ---**
*That memento from Roberto...*
**[15:39] ---**
This is my...
**[15:43] ---**
Here I go!
**[15:44] ---**
*It's his signature long shot!*
**[15:48] ---**
Drive Shot!
**[15:52] ---**
*Tearing through the rainy French sky...*
**[15:59] ---**
*It's in! Tsubasa's Drive Shot!*
**[16:05] ---**
You did it, Tsubasa!
**[16:06] ---**
We're tied.
**[16:08] ---**
*They're tied.*
**[16:09] ---**
*Fifteen minutes into the second half,*
**[16:10] ---**
*and the ten members
of Team Japan have tied it up.*
**[16:15] ---**
All right.
**[16:16] ---**
We caught up.
**[16:17] ---**
Nice Drive Shot.
**[16:19] ---**
Tsubasa.
**[16:22] ---**
Excellent, Tsubasa.
**[16:24] ---**
The perfect execution of the
South American Drive Shot I taught you.
**[16:29] ---**
Only Captain Tsubasa.
**[16:31] ---**
Putting Misugi in
was a success too, Coach.
**[16:34] ---**
Yeah.
**[16:35] ---**
Coach, I'll go let Soda know.
**[16:39] ---**
The match started
with a first goal by Tsubasa.
**[16:42] ---**
But, France immediately caught up
with Pierre's Slider Shot.
**[16:46] ---**
After Soda's dramatic ejection,
**[16:49] ---**
Pierre easily got the penalty kick
and made it 2-1.
**[16:52] ---**
Then France managed to add
another point with Napoleon's shot,
**[16:55] ---**
going into half time with 3-1.
**[16:59] ---**
But the second half
saw Japan make their come back.
**[17:03] ---**
At the seven-minute mark, it was Hyuga.
**[17:04] ---**
And now, at the 15-minute mark,
it's Tsubasa who scored to tie it 3-3.
**[17:12] ---**
The other captain... That one point
he got by getting by Pierre is huge.
**[17:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:18] ---**
Again, there's no telling
how this'll turn out.
**[17:21] ---**
T-Tie.
**[17:23] ---**
I see, the guys did it.
**[17:26] ---**
Fifteen minutes left,
and Japan is setting the pace now.
**[17:29] ---**
We can do it.
**[17:36] ---**
I was completely outplayed.
**[17:40] ---**
P-Pierre.
**[17:42] ---**
Allez France! Allez France!
**[17:45] ---**
Allez France! Allez France!
**[17:49] ---**
Allez France! Allez France!
**[17:52] ---**
Go France!
**[17:54] ---**
It's still tied, you haven't lost!
**[17:57] ---**
Play your own soccer, and you'll win!
**[17:59] ---**
Go, France Junior Youth!
**[18:02] ---**
*That's right. We have all these
amazing fans behind us.*
**[18:08] ---**
*We can't repay them
with anything but perfection.*
**[18:13] ---**
They're short a player.
**[18:15] ---**
As the game goes on,
they're going to get tired.
**[18:19] ---**
We may be tied,
but we still have the advantage.
**[18:22] ---**
Don't give up.
**[18:24] ---**
All right.
**[18:27] ---**
All right, let's go, everyone.
**[18:30] ---**
*The overwhelming support of the crowd
lifts Team France, helping them*
**[18:32] ---**
*put up one heck of a fight.*
**[18:34] ---**
Let's put up a solid defense.
**[18:36] ---**
All right.
**[18:39] ---**
Defense.
**[18:41] ---**
Attack! Get a goal!
**[18:44] ---**
*But with Misugi in for Japan,
the defense is even tighter.*
**[18:49] ---**
*They won't give up a point that easily.*
**[18:51] ---**
*They have an offside trap too.*
**[18:54] ---**
*We can't send the ball
in front of the goal without thinking.*
**[18:59] ---**
Here, Napoleon!
**[19:02] ---**
What?
**[19:03] ---**
*This is an unexpected pass behind.*
**[19:05] ---**
All right, I'll put it in.
**[19:07] ---**
Louis Napoleon, French ace, with a...
**[19:13] ---**
Cannon Shot!
**[19:24] ---**
*But the long shot by Napoleon is stopped
by Goalie Wakashimazu's diving catch.*
**[19:30] ---**
Shoot.
**[19:31] ---**
Nice, Wakashimazu.
**[19:34] ---**
*That injury Schneider gave me
back in the beginning of the tour...*
**[19:38] ---**
*It's making me lose the grip
in my right hand.*
**[19:41] ---**
*That goalie...*
**[19:43] ---**
*Both teams are taking turns
attacking and defending here*
**[19:46] ---**
*at the first International Junior Youth
Tournament in France.*
**[19:50] ---**
Head for the goal!
**[19:51] ---**
Stop them!
**[19:52] ---**
Don't let them have the ball.
**[19:56] ---**
*All this rain from the start
of the second half...*
**[19:59] ---**
*It's making the pitch extremely muddy.*
**[20:02] ---**
*Time keeps ticking by.*
**[20:07] ---**
*We have less than ten minutes.*
**[20:09] ---**
*Chances are the next point
will be the game winner.*
**[20:20] ---**
*Tsubasa has the ball.*
**[20:23] ---**
It's Number 10 again.
Don't leave him alone!
**[20:26] ---**
Mark him, France.
**[20:28] ---**
-Crap.
-Crush him!
**[20:30] ---**
*France tackles!*
**[20:32] ---**
All right.
**[20:33] ---**
But Tsubasa evades and passes mid-air.
**[20:37] ---**
*The ball goes to Misaki.*
**[20:39] ---**
*But Misaki has Pierre on him.*
**[20:42] ---**
Like Tsubasa, will Misaki
challenge him to a one-on-one?
**[20:48] ---**
*No, he passes.*
**[20:49] ---**
Here, Misaki.
**[20:51] ---**
*It's a superb one-two return with Tsubasa.*
**[20:55] ---**
*Just as I thought,
I'll intercept the return pass.*
**[20:58] ---**
*But Pierre has read the return pass?*
**[21:03] ---**
What!
**[21:05] ---**
*Pierre slips on the muddy pitch!*
**[21:10] ---**
I'll stop him.
**[21:12] ---**
All right.
**[21:13] ---**
Kojiro.
**[21:14] ---**
*Misaki sends Hyuga a final pass.*
**[21:17] ---**
-Darn.
-O-Oh no.
**[21:19] ---**
*A superb pass that goes between
the French defense.*
**[21:22] ---**
All right, got it.
**[21:24] ---**
I, Kojiro Hyuga,
will score the winning point.
**[21:30] ---**
What?
**[21:31] ---**
*Oh, it's stopped!*
**[21:32] ---**
*Hyuga can't shoot like this!*
**[21:37] ---**
Phew.
**[21:38] ---**
*For France,
that is truly one lucky puddle.*
**[21:41] ---**
*Now the stopped ball*
**[21:42] ---**
*has been picked up
by the forward Napoleon, who has returned.*
**[21:46] ---**
The goddess of victory seems
to have smiled down on us, after all.
**[21:50] ---**
Let's go, Pierre.
**[21:51] ---**
Napoleon.
**[21:53] ---**
Go France!
**[21:55] ---**
Show them the ultimate attack!
**[21:59] ---**
Let's go! Eiffel Attack!
**[22:03] ---**
Eiffel Attack?
