[00:00] ---
    The Razor Shot
    makes a big curve to the right.

[00:05] ---
    This time it's the lower right corner.
[00:09] ---
    And Hyuga is moving
    into that spot as well.

[00:13] ---
    Nice dash, Hyuga.
[00:14] ---
    Our ace striker!
[00:17] ---
    If Muller can't catch this shot
    and punches it,

[00:20] ---
    then Hyuga can easily shoot
    the loose ball.

[00:40] ---
    He...
[00:41] ---
    He's stopped it with just his left arm!
[00:44] ---
    What?
[00:45] ---
    Hyuga, with a powerful lower body
    shoots from close range, and yet,

[00:49] ---
    Muller stops it with just his left hand.
[00:56] ---
    This is shaping up nicely.
[00:59] ---
    Two guys on defense overlapped,
    so now's our chance.

[01:03] ---
    Let's go, Schneider.
[01:07] ---
    He swings the ball
    straight down from above his head.

[01:12] ---
    And with the bounce back,
    he kicks with his right foot.

[01:15] ---
    A combination throw-kick.
[01:18] ---
    What a powerful move by Muller.
[01:20] ---
    -What?
    -Oh no!
[01:22] ---
    It's flying straight back!
[01:24] ---
    With Japan's two defenders Matsuyama and
    Soda overlapped, their defense is weak.

[01:30] ---
    It goes through the midfield,
    and for the first time this match,

[01:34] ---
    directly to Schneider
    in front of the goal!

[01:37] ---
    Nice pass.
[01:38] ---
    Oh, no.
[01:52] ---
    CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
    JUNIOR YOUTH ARC

    EPISODE 29
    SCHNEIDER VS. WAKABAYASHI
[03:17] ---
    Karl!
[03:18] ---
    Karl!
[03:23] ---
    Oh, but here's Wakabayashi.
[03:26] ---
    -What?
    -Wakabayashi.
[03:28] ---
    W-Wakabayashi.
[03:29] ---
    Japan's goalie, Wakabayashi,
[03:32] ---
    is the only one who read the play
    and came running out.

[03:37] ---
    He's completely blocked
    Schneider's Jumping Volley Shot!

[03:41] ---
    Germany may have Muller,
[03:43] ---
    but Japan has the great
    Genzo Wakabayashi.

[03:49] ---
    Nice catch, Wakabayashi.
[03:52] ---
    Genzo.
[03:54] ---
    That goalie...
[03:59] ---
    We almost handed you a goal there.
[04:03] ---
    Impressive, Wakabayashi.
[04:05] ---
    But I promise you,
    I'll get a goal off you this match.
[04:10] ---
    I think that Japanese goalie
    played for Hamburg.
[04:14] ---
    Yeah, together with Karl, they were
    the stars of Hamburg Junior Youth.
[04:19] ---
    Karl on offense
    and Wakabayashi on defense.
[04:24] ---
    Schneider, you've come this far.
[04:27] ---
    Go watch in the seat Karl gave you.
[04:29] ---
    Oh, I suppose I will.
[04:31] ---
    Mom, can you believe how close that was?
[04:34] ---
    It was. Let's go find the seats
    your brother got us.
[04:40] ---
    Matsuyama, Soda.
[04:42] ---
    Not so fast there.
[04:44] ---
    Defense first, then offense.
[04:49] ---
    -Sorry, Wakabayashi.
    -Yeah, sorry 'bout that.
[04:52] ---
    Matsuyama puts the ball midfield.
[04:55] ---
    Oh and in the midfield,
    Tsubasa already has marks on him.

[05:00] ---
    That's right, don't let him get the ball.
[05:03] ---
    Number 10, Tsubasa Ozora.
[05:05] ---
    He's the one behind Japan's success,
    and the real miracle maker.

[05:12] ---
    As long as we can control
    Number 10, Germany will win.

[05:21] ---
    Matsuyama gives it
    to the midfielder Sawada.

[05:25] ---
    All right.
[05:26] ---
    He may be small, but he's got skill.
[05:28] ---
    Sawada manages to keep the ball midfield.
[05:30] ---
    Here!
[05:31] ---
    And as the opponent attacks,
    he passes sideways.

[05:35] ---
    Sano, the other midfielder, is waiting.
    Japan is holding on to the ball.

[05:44] ---
    Here, Misaki.
[05:46] ---
    Nice pass.
[05:47] ---
    The ball goes from Sano to Misaki.
[05:51] ---
    Let's go.
[05:52] ---
    When Tsubasa is marked,
    Misaki becomes the playmaker.
[05:56] ---
    Japan has four technicians
    in the midfield.

[06:00] ---
    They're keeping control. Misaki cuts in.
[06:06] ---
    Shoot.
[06:10] ---
    The markers leave Tsubasa
    and go for Misaki dribbling.

[06:15] ---
    But just then Misaki passes!
[06:17] ---
    What?
[06:19] ---
    Nice, Misaki.
[06:20] ---
    The ball goes back to Tsubasa,
    the true playmaker for Japan.

[06:27] ---
    When all is said and done,
    Japan's offense really begins with him.

[06:32] ---
    Seeing the ball go to Tsubasa,
[06:35] ---
    the lightning fast forwards
    sprint to the goal.

[06:38] ---
    We'll be okay
    as long as Tsubasa's got the ball.
[06:41] ---
    We've got a great team,
    if I do say so myself.

[06:44] ---
    Our forwards are fast.
[06:46] ---
    The midfield is covered
    by our technicians,

[06:49] ---
    and our defense is fearless.
[06:51] ---
    And...
[06:52] ---
    our goalie's defense is iron clad.
[06:55] ---
    We don't play European
    or South American soccer.

[06:58] ---
    Our soccer is Japanese, J Boys soccer.
[07:02] ---
    Thanks to our boys, a new dawn
    in Japanese soccer is breaking.

[07:08] ---
    We have to win. We have to ensure that
    the future of Japanese soccer is bright.

[07:16] ---
    They're quite the team, Japan.
[07:19] ---
    I may've been focused on Tsubasa,
[07:22] ---
    but the goalie Wakabayashi, Ishizaki,
    Misaki and his number one rival, Hyuga.

[07:28] ---
    They're all familiar faces.
[07:31] ---
    You've all continued to play with Tsubasa
    over the years.

[07:36] ---
    All right, let's go, guys!
[07:38] ---
    Our long shots
    won't work against this goalie.
[07:41] ---
    We need to cut in front of the goal
    and shoot from there.
[07:45] ---
    Individual shots may not work,
    but if we can work together,
[07:50] ---
    I know we can score off him.
[07:52] ---
    Yeah!
[07:54] ---
    They're not going to shoot this time.
[07:55] ---
    How will Japan break down
    the tough German defense?

[08:00] ---
    Misaki.
[08:01] ---
    Yes, Tsubasa?
[08:03] ---
    The Golden Duo starts with a Pass Play.
[08:07] ---
    Here!
[08:09] ---
    Tsubasa goes wide to the right.
[08:12] ---
    What?!
[08:14] ---
    Hyuga's in that spot.
[08:16] ---
    Will he cut in front of the goal
    and take a shot?

[08:20] ---
    No, he goes right.
    He dribbles near the line!

[08:24] ---
    Hyuga takes on the wing player position.
[08:27] ---
    Hyuga?
[08:29] ---
    Hyuga is a dedicated team player.
[08:32] ---
    He's going to center the ball
    from this position.

[08:34] ---
    I have to center it
    where the goalie can't get to it.

[08:40] ---
    There!
[08:42] ---
    Hyuga shoots an arrow-like pass
    in front of the goal.

[08:46] ---
    He centered it with the power of a shot.
[08:48] ---
    Germany can't move,
    and the goalie can't jump out.

[08:52] ---
    Tsubasa runs to the spot!
[08:55] ---
    He's going for a direct shot.
[08:58] ---
    Here I go!
[09:02] ---
    It's no use!
[09:03] ---
    I've got this sinking feeling,
    that even from here,

[09:06] ---
    he'll still grab it.
[09:09] ---
    Oh, he doesn't shoot!
[09:11] ---
    Tsubasa traps the ball.
[09:13] ---
    Tsubasa?
[09:14] ---
    I'm gonna cut in
    until I shake this feeling.

[09:18] ---
    Tsubasa dribbles from this position.
[09:21] ---
    He's going to go one-on-one
    against the goalie.

[09:24] ---
    Tsubasa!
[09:25] ---
    Tsubasa managed to get by
    eight players against France.

[09:29] ---
    He's blowing by the German defense, too.
[09:32] ---
    Yeah, that's it! No one can stop
    his determination for the goal.
[09:38] ---
    Go ahead, come at me.
[09:40] ---
    No matter where they come from,
    how powerful they are, or how they play,
[09:44] ---
    no one's getting in my goal!
[09:46] ---
    You got that guarantee, and that's why...
[09:48] ---
    you allowed me to play in this tournament.
[09:52] ---
    Right, Coach?
[09:58] ---
    He gets by the last player.
[10:00] ---
    All right!
[10:01] ---
    At that moment, goalie Muller jumps in.
[10:05] ---
    Tsubasa shoots even when off balance.
[10:09] ---
    Muller!
[10:10] ---
    Tsubasa!
[10:15] ---
    Go for under the goalie's armpit.
[10:19] ---
    He stops it, and right under his armpit!
[10:24] ---
    What reaction by Muller!
[10:26] ---
    He saved it with his elbow!
[10:28] ---
    Th-This goalie!
[10:30] ---
    I can't believe he stopped that!
[10:35] ---
    But Misaki with excellent follow up
    on the loose ball.

[10:38] ---
    Misaki!
[10:39] ---
    Misaki with an overhead shot!
[10:41] ---
    Go!
[10:42] ---
    It's what you'd expect
    from Tsubasa's famous sidekick.

[10:45] ---
    It's an overhead kick!
[10:46] ---
    Will Japan get the first point?
[10:49] ---
    Oh, he's stopped this one too.
[10:51] ---
    What?
[10:52] ---
    Japan's two-tier attack didn't work.
[11:00] ---
    Goalie Muller turns around
    in a flash and stops it.

[11:05] ---
    What reflexes!
[11:07] ---
    They're superhuman, they're an animal.
[11:11] ---
    I stopped it, Coach.
[11:14] ---
    You caught it, just as I knew you would.
[11:15] ---
    No matter who the opponent,
    you always block it.

[11:19] ---
    That's why I allowed you
    to join this tournament.

[11:26] ---
    N-No way.
[11:28] ---
    What a goalie.
[11:30] ---
    They haven't cracked the goal yet
    but Japan still controls the game.

[11:34] ---
    If they can keep attacking like this,
    they will score.

[11:38] ---
    Next they'll pull out
    a triple-tier attack.

[11:45] ---
    Our seats are around here.
[11:46] ---
    Yes, you're right.
[11:48] ---
    I'm sure Karl has...
[11:51] ---
    Dad.
[11:54] ---
    Oh, I thought it might be...
[12:06] ---
    Dad, Mom, Marie.
[12:13] ---
    You came.
[12:14] ---
    CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
    JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
[12:19] ---
    BIRTH DATE SEPTEMBER 6 / HEIGHT 168 CM
    WEIGHT 54 KG / BLOOD TYPE B
[12:22] ---
    It's the final of the first International
    Junior Youth Tournament in France.

[12:26] ---
    The opening ten minutes have flown by,
    and the score is still 0-0.

[12:30] ---
    I can't believe
    they're pushing Germany so hard.
[12:33] ---
    That goalie is single-handedly
    saving Germany.
[12:36] ---
    It doesn't matter
    how amazing Schneider is,
[12:39] ---
    but nothing will ever happen
    if he doesn't get the ball.
[12:42] ---
    Whoever controls the midfield
    controls the match.
[12:46] ---
    Go, go, Japan!
[12:47] ---
    Keep it up!
[12:50] ---
    While Germany is on the defensive,
    one person continues to shine.

[12:55] ---
    The goalie who's managed to save the team
    in a pinch with his fine plays.

[12:59] ---
    And Muller resumes the match
    with a goal kick.

[13:02] ---
    Muller can easily use his explosive kick
[13:04] ---
    to put the ball
    in front of the opponent's goal,

[13:07] ---
    but he plays it by the book
    and gets it to Schester in the midfield.

[13:10] ---
    All right.
[13:12] ---
    What?
[13:13] ---
    What?
[13:14] ---
    Oh but Schneider
    from their team intercepts.

[13:18] ---
    Schneider?
[13:20] ---
    What the heck?
[13:21] ---
    S-Schneider.
[13:23] ---
    The forward, Schneider,
    has moved down to midfield.

[13:27] ---
    Karl!
[13:30] ---
    Hey, you're blocking my view.
[13:37] ---
    Come on, let's sit.
[13:39] ---
    Oh, Schneider is planning to use his
    current position to cut in with a dribble.

[13:45] ---
    Ten minutes into the first half,
[13:47] ---
    and he was waiting for a ball
    that never came.

[13:49] ---
    Looks like he finally lost patience.
[13:50] ---
    The Young Emperor,
    Karl Heinz Schneider, dribbles on.

[13:55] ---
    Oh no.
[13:56] ---
    Schneider's in midfield.
[13:59] ---
    Tsubasa and Misaki, the two
    key midfield players for Japan,

[14:01] ---
    are still in front of Germany's goal.
[14:04] ---
    Go! Schneider!
[14:07] ---
    A midfield without Tsubasa and Misaki.
[14:09] ---
    Sano and Sawada go to stop Schneider.
[14:14] ---
    We'll stop him!
[14:15] ---
    Sano, Sawada!
[14:17] ---
    Get him! Use your special technique.
[14:23] ---
    No way!
[14:24] ---
    His dribbling is blistering, it's dynamic.
[14:27] ---
    Schneider!
[14:28] ---
    Schneider leaves 'em behind in a flash.
[14:32] ---
    Most talk about his shooting ability,
    but he can pass and dribble, too.

[14:37] ---
    He's a true all-rounder.
[14:41] ---
    He's playing forward now, but he can just
    as well play midfield, and even defense.

[14:48] ---
    He's an elite athlete in all respects.
[14:50] ---
    That's why he's been honored with
    the name, the Young Emperor of Germany.

[14:57] ---
    Shoot, we're defenders, we can stop him!
[15:00] ---
    Yeah.
[15:01] ---
    But Wakabayashi's report made no mention
    of any weaknesses for Schneider.

[15:08] ---
    How do we stop him?
[15:10] ---
    I'll go.
[15:12] ---
    Back me up, Matsuyama.
[15:14] ---
    Soda!
[15:16] ---
    Schneider plans
    to make a run for Japan's goal.

[15:20] ---
    Soda goes head-on against Schneider.
[15:23] ---
    Take that! Razor Tackle!
[15:27] ---
    But Schneider jumps and avoids it.
[15:30] ---
    Amazing. What jumping ability!
[15:32] ---
    All right. There!
[15:35] ---
    That's Japan's two-tier defense for ya!
[15:38] ---
    Matsuyama with good follow up goes in
    with a kneel kick to Schneider in the air.

[15:43] ---
    Watch out Schneider!
[15:45] ---
    Oh, but Schneider uses both feet
    to block it midair.

[15:53] ---
    And he lands, immediately
    assuming shooting position.

[15:56] ---
    He's in front of the goal,
    a little away from the penalty area.

[16:00] ---
    Shoot, I'll stop him.
[16:01] ---
    Face block!
[16:07] ---
    There it is, Schneider's Fire Shot!
[16:11] ---
    Jito the Giant is totally beaten back.
[16:13] ---
    It heads straight for Japan's goal.
[16:20] ---
    H-He stopped it!
[16:22] ---
    -What?
    -W-Wakabayashi!
[16:25] ---
    Well done, Wakabayashi.
[16:28] ---
    Wakabayashi, Japan's goalie,
    managed to stop Schneider's Fire Shot.

[16:35] ---
    A first for this tournament!
[16:37] ---
    What an amazing move
[16:38] ---
    by Genzo Wakabayashi, the famous
    Super Great Goal Keeper of Japan.

[16:42] ---
    That's the Wakabayashi I know.
    Great catch!
[16:46] ---
    Amazing, Wakabayashi.
[16:53] ---
    That pose Schneider's making.
    That means the next time will be it.
[16:57] ---
    Japan's dominated the midfield until now,
[17:00] ---
    but if Schneider is going down
    to midfield, then things could get messy.

[17:06] ---
    Next time is mine.
[17:08] ---
    I swear I'll show my family a goal.
[17:13] ---
    Germany will be the first to score.
[17:17] ---
    That determination.
[17:18] ---
    I remember it.
[17:20] ---
    That's right, two weeks ago in Hamburg.
[17:24] ---
    If Schneider changes positions
    and plays midfield,

[17:28] ---
    then I'll mark him.
[17:32] ---
    Tsubasa Ozora.
[17:35] ---
    THREE YEARS AGO
[17:35] ---
    Wakabayashi talked him up
    like he was talking about himself.

[17:40] ---
    Japan has someone else
    really worth looking out for.
[17:51] ---
    Okay, good job defenders!
[17:54] ---
    Good defense! Soda, Matsuyama, nice play.
[17:59] ---
    Jito, Ishizaki, if you'd taken
    one more step, you could've stopped it.
[18:03] ---
    Oh, got it.
[18:06] ---
    Still, that was incredible!
[18:10] ---
    I've never seen anything like that.
[18:11] ---
    I didn't even touch the ball, and still
    the friction from the air sliced my face.

[18:16] ---
    So this is Germany's
    infamous Young Emperor.

[18:18] ---
    Karl Heinz Schneider.
[18:21] ---
    Dad, Mom, that was so close.
[18:25] ---
    Yes.
[18:26] ---
    Yeah.
[18:31] ---
    Schneider with an impressive attack
    from midfield.

[18:35] ---
    Will he switch positions
    and play midfield?

[18:39] ---
    Schneider.
[18:41] ---
    Are you going to be a midfielder?
[18:43] ---
    Wakabayashi is impressive,
    and he won't let me score that easily.
[18:48] ---
    Next time, I'll shoot from inside
    the penalty area.
[18:52] ---
    For that, I'll need a pass
    in front of the goal.
[18:55] ---
    Schneider.
[18:57] ---
    You got it?
[18:58] ---
    They have Wakabayashi.
    We're former team mates.
[19:03] ---
    And the guys here have played against him
    many times in Germany.
[19:08] ---
    They've got all the stats on us.
[19:14] ---
    They're already onto your signature move
[19:17] ---
    of sliding by your opponent
    on the left side feint.
[19:21] ---
    It's not like you
    to have lost the ball twice.
[19:26] ---
    S-So that's what it was.
[19:28] ---
    Of course, Wakabayashi.
[19:31] ---
    As long as we understand that,
    there's no need to get flustered.
[19:34] ---
    I'm leaving the midfield up to you guys.
    Just get me passes.
[19:37] ---
    I'll take care
    of getting the goal next time.
[19:39] ---
    Yeah.
[19:41] ---
    Schneider returns to his position
    as forward.

[19:44] ---
    He won't be playing midfielder.
[19:47] ---
    He's going to be a forward after all.
    No midfield then.

[19:54] ---
    The ball goes from Wakabayashi
    to Matsuyama.

[19:57] ---
    Sawada!
[19:59] ---
    And from there to midfielder Sawada.
[20:02] ---
    All right, I'm getting this to Tsubasa.
[20:04] ---
    I get it, now there's nothing to fear.
[20:12] ---
    Schester's sliding tackle
    of an arrow just tears!

[20:16] ---
    Sawada goes down! He loses the ball.
[20:20] ---
    Schester immediately gets up
    and starts dribbling.

[20:23] ---
    -Franz!
    -Schester, go for it!
[20:27] ---
    From Japan, Misaki runs up.
[20:34] ---
    Okay, left.
[20:38] ---
    Oh, Schester goes to the opposite
    of Misaki's read and veers right.

[20:44] ---
    Germany's own Young Noble of the Midfield,
    Franz Schester, has come back.

[20:49] ---
    Tsubasa goes this time.
[20:51] ---
    He jumped right, not left of Misaki.
[21:00] ---
    I'll stop him.
[21:03] ---
    Kaltz, dribbling.
[21:05] ---
    In an instant, he gets by Sano
    and Sawada who came around.

[21:09] ---
    Get a load of real European technique.
[21:12] ---
    And this time I'm not playin' around.
[21:15] ---
    And he sends a pass
    to Schneider in front of the goal.

[21:18] ---
    It's the Hamburg duo!
[21:20] ---
    There, I'll intercept the pass
    going to Schneider in front of the goal.
[21:26] ---
    Oh, a kicking error by Kaltz.
[21:29] ---
    The ball goes in an unexpected direction.
[21:31] ---
    No, that's not it.
[21:32] ---
    He wants you to think that, and then sends
    an accurate pass to the perfect spot.

[21:36] ---
    That's the Workman Herman Kaltz.
[21:40] ---
    All right.
[21:42] ---
    What?
[21:43] ---
    No, it wasn't a kicking mistake!
[21:46] ---
    The other German forward, Margus,
    is running into position for the pass.

[21:50] ---
    We got this.
[21:52] ---
    Oh no.
[21:54] ---
    Take that!
[21:57] ---
    Wakabayashi!
[21:59] ---
    Wakabayashi!
[22:00] ---
    Wakabayashi!
