    PARIS, FRANCE
[00:09] ---
    Well, that was a bust.
[00:10] ---
    No photos, and absolutely no interviews.
[00:14] ---
    What kind of practice is France Junior
    Youth having that's closed to the press?
[00:20] ---
    What've they got to hide?
[00:24] ---
    Misaki.
[00:26] ---
    Fisher.
[00:27] ---
    You want in, right? Follow me.
[00:31] ---
    Oof.
[00:34] ---
    We can use this secret route.
[00:37] ---
    This way, Misaki.
[00:39] ---
    Okay.

    EPISODE 5 ANOTHER HEAVY HITTER
[02:14] ---
    Hey, look who's playing against
    France Junior Youth!
[02:20] ---
    They're pros! Players from
    the Division 1 French pro league.
[02:24] ---
    That's why they wouldn't let anyone in.
[02:27] ---
    It's Elle Sid Pierre.
[02:29] ---
    Wow.
[02:30] ---
    Even against pros,
    he can handle things just as well.
[02:35] ---
    Pierre.
[02:43] ---
    All right.
[02:45] ---
    Hey, better watch out there, kid.
[02:47] ---
    You'll crack your head open juggling
    the ball like that down the stairs.
[02:51] ---
    Nah, dontcha know?
    The ball is your friend! I'm used to it.
[02:56] ---
    Who is that?
[02:57] ---
    Don't you know?
[02:58] ---
    He's that super talented
    Japanese soccer player, Taro Misaki.
[03:05] ---
    Several clubs have asked him to join,
[03:07] ---
    but for some reason,
    he's said no to all of them.
[03:30] ---
    Watch out!
[03:36] ---
    What the hell was that for?
[03:38] ---
    Oh.
[03:40] ---
    You're Taro Misaki.
[03:44] ---
    Huh? What happened Misaki?
[03:48] ---
    He's...
[03:49] ---
    I remember. This man is...
[03:53] ---
    He's Elle Sid Pierre, a France
    Junior Youth player from Bordeaux.
[03:59] ---
    Elle Sid Pierre.
[04:02] ---
    When we won
    the French national league tournament,
[04:06] ---
    I heard about you from the Seine guys.
[04:11] ---
    What?
[04:11] ---
    About a guy named Misaki.
[04:14] ---
    So...
[04:15] ---
    I decided to come here to Paris.
[04:24] ---
    Here.
[04:30] ---
    I know about you, too.
[04:34] ---
    Way to go, Misaki.
[04:36] ---
    He's mimicking Pierre.
[04:38] ---
    The most skilled player
    of France Junior Youth.
[04:42] ---
    Already recruited
    for the French national team.
[04:48] ---
    Elle Sid Pierre.
[04:50] ---
    He's...
[04:51] ---
    Nice to meet you.
    I'm Taro Misaki from Japan.
[04:57] ---
    Since you know who I am,
    we can make this short and sweet.
[05:00] ---
    No need to talk it out.
[05:02] ---
    Misaki!
[05:04] ---
    Not this time.
[05:06] ---
    Go Misaki!
[05:07] ---
    Pierre's awesome, too.
[05:12] ---
    The ball's floating in midair.
[05:15] ---
    They got it at the same time.
[05:17] ---
    Watch out!
[05:24] ---
    Misaki and Pierre.
[05:26] ---
    Both of them have amazing skills.
[05:29] ---
    -Go Misaki!
    -Misaki!
[05:32] ---
    Why're you rooting for Japan?
[05:34] ---
    Pierre is a French national treasure.
[05:36] ---
    Get 'em, Pierre.
[05:39] ---
    It's like the Seine guys said,
    he's not half bad.

[05:43] ---
    The rumors were true, Pierre is amazing.
[05:50] ---
    -All right, this ball will decide it.
    -Okay!
[05:57] ---
    -Huh?
    -What?!
[06:03] ---
    Who the hell's meddling?
[06:07] ---
    You...
[06:09] ---
    Misaki, that uniform is yours.
[06:12] ---
    What?
[06:15] ---
    Taro Misaki, you're invited
    to join Japan Junior Youth.
[06:21] ---
    Team Japan?
[06:23] ---
    What's going on?
[06:25] ---
    Don't know.
[06:26] ---
    Japan is an official participant
    in the first
[06:29] ---
    International Junior Youth Soccer
    Tournament to be held here in two weeks.
[06:38] ---
    Besides Japan, France and Germany
    are sending teams.
[06:43] ---
    A total of 12 teams
    from South America, Asia,
[06:46] ---
    and other European countries
    are participating
[06:50] ---
    in this first French International
    Junior Youth Tournament.
[06:53] ---
    I want you to wear the number 11 jersey
    and be part of the team.
[07:02] ---
    B-But I haven't had a chance to...
[07:06] ---
    A true test of skill, eh?
[07:08] ---
    Let's settle this in a real match,
    11 against 11.
[07:14] ---
    Pierre.
[07:15] ---
    Guess it really was worth coming
    all the way from Bordeaux to Paris.
[07:20] ---
    Thanks for the info, Seine guys.
[07:26] ---
    Pierre.
[07:28] ---
    Taro Misaki.
[07:30] ---
    I was looking forward to playing against
    Germany's Schneider at the tournament,

[07:36] ---
    but now it seems I have
    one more opponent to look forward to.

[07:41] ---
    Elle Sid Pierre, huh?
    Europe really is the home of soccer.
[07:46] ---
    He has amazing skills.
[07:49] ---
    And you are?
[07:51] ---
    Name's Katagiri,
    I'm from the Japan Soccer Federation.
[08:01] ---
    Another new uniform.
[08:04] ---
    Who're you playing for this time?
[08:06] ---
    I haven't decided if I'm doing it yet.
[08:11] ---
    Why? Really?
    You usually go anywhere they ask.
[08:17] ---
    Yeah.
[08:19] ---
    In the three years we've been in France,
    I've kept up my soccer,

[08:23] ---
    but I haven't joined a single team
    and haven't gotten any serious coaching.

[08:28] ---
    This team is different;
    I can't just say okay like I've done before.

[08:36] ---
    I don't know if I can cut it anymore.
[08:42] ---
    And that three-year absence.
[08:46] ---
    I don't feel I could just pick up
[08:49] ---
    and play again with them
    even if I was part of the team.

[08:56] ---
    I might hold them back.
[09:01] ---
    But still, I want to play soccer
    with everyone.

[09:05] ---
    I want to play with Tsubasa
    and the guys again.

[09:09] ---
    That's why I'm here.
    To test my skills, and to test myself.

[09:16] ---
    Go, Bossis!
[09:18] ---
    Good. Nice pass, Pierre.
[09:21] ---
    Got it.
[09:24] ---
    Damn.
[09:26] ---
    -Oh, no.
    -So close.
[09:27] ---
    He almost got a point off a pro.
[09:41] ---
    Game over.
[09:43] ---
    Sorry about that. I know it was a big ask.
[09:47] ---
    No no, this team is pretty good.
[09:51] ---
    You're guaranteed to win this tournament.
[09:55] ---
    No, we still have work to do.
    I'm still missing one piece.
[10:01] ---
    Misaki?
[10:03] ---
    What's that uniform?
[10:09] ---
    To figure out what I'm made of,
    I have to try against France Junior Youth.
[10:14] ---
    I couldn't really test my true skills
    with that one-on-one with Pierre,
[10:17] ---
    but I can figure it out
    with France Junior Youth.
[10:24] ---
    This match will be the deciding factor.
[10:26] ---
    Japan Junior Youth,
    to join or not to join.

[10:33] ---
    Come at me, France Junior Youth!
[10:35] ---
    What's that guy doing?
[10:37] ---
    How'd that guy get in here?
[10:40] ---
    Misaki.
[10:44] ---
    Go, you guys.
[10:45] ---
    -Huh?
    -Pierre.
[10:47] ---
    Never mind, get the ball away from him.
[10:50] ---
    O-Okay.
[10:53] ---
    I-It's Misaki vs France Junior Youth.
[10:57] ---
    It's time to test my skills.
[11:01] ---
    He's fast.
[11:02] ---
    Misaki!
[11:04] ---
    Watch out.
[11:05] ---
    He's no ordinary player.
[11:11] ---
    I've still got it.
    I've still got some skill and speed.

[11:16] ---
    I'm coming for you,
    Captain Elle Sid Pierre of France!

[11:22] ---
    Now, he's going one-on-one with Pierre.
[11:28] ---
    He's sticking with me.
    My fake out couldn't shake him.

[11:33] ---
    Damn, I can't get past him.
[11:35] ---
    I'm taking it, Misaki.
[11:37] ---
    This way.
[11:38] ---
    What the...
[11:39] ---
    Pass it this way.
[11:41] ---
    Here.
[11:43] ---
    All right.
[11:45] ---
    Pay attention. Let's go!
[11:47] ---
    Here.
[11:48] ---
    Here.
[11:50] ---
    The two of them
    are running a combination play.
[11:54] ---
    Just the two of them
    against France Junior Youth.
[11:58] ---
    It's amazing! This is just like
    when I used to pair up with Tsubasa.

[12:02] ---
    He's through! He got by them all.
[12:09] ---
    I did it!
[12:11] ---
    Misaki.
[12:13] ---
    Sorry it was all so sudden, Pierre.
[12:17] ---
    And you are?
[12:18] ---
    I'm sorry I entered the grounds
    when I shouldn't have.
[12:21] ---
    But I had to test my soccer skills,
[12:25] ---
    and France Junior Youth was the only team
    who could help me do that.
[12:32] ---
    Sorry to have barged in like that.
[12:37] ---
    So did you figure out what you wanted?
[12:40] ---
    Yeah. I couldn't get by you on my own,
    but I've made my decision.
[12:47] ---
    Misaki, we're even on the ambush front.
    Next time...
[12:52] ---
    Yeah, till next time, at a real match.
[12:58] ---
    Misaki, you know who that is?
[13:01] ---
    Nope, can't say I do.
[13:07] ---
    Here comes a long shot.
[13:13] ---
    Wh-What?
[13:14] ---
    What was that?
[13:16] ---
    CAPTAIN TSUBASA:
    JUNIOR YOUTH ARC
[13:20] ---
    BIRTHDAY MAY 5 / HEIGHT 165 CM
    WEIGHT 53 KG / BLOOD TYPE AB
[13:20] ---
    
[13:23] ---
    BREMEN, GERMANY
[13:23] ---
    This practice is a mock match,
    so stay sharp.
[13:26] ---
    - Here.
    - Run harder!
[13:28] ---
    JAPAN TEAM ACCOMMODATION
[13:31] ---
    That practice was intense.
[13:34] ---
    Hey Hyuga, where're you going?
[13:36] ---
    To kick the ball around.
[13:38] ---
    Hyuga.
[13:40] ---
    I'm going for a run.
[13:42] ---
    Matsuyama.
[13:44] ---
    -I'll go, too.
    -Me, too.
[13:46] ---
    Tachibana, let's practice.
[13:50] ---
    Oh, you mean that thing.
[13:52] ---
    Sounds good, let's go.
[13:54] ---
    Yeah!
[14:01] ---
    A European tour,
    and two back-to-back losses.

[14:04] ---
    Was it the painful losses?
[14:07] ---
    Or the realization of their own weaknesses
    in the face of European dominance?

[14:12] ---
    With new vigor, Japan Junior Youth
    begins their own special training regimen.

[14:19] ---
    Polishing their skills to win
    in the next match.

[14:24] ---
    -Here I come.
    -All right.
[14:27] ---
    I gotta build back that muscle I lost
    when I was injured.

[14:44] ---
    It's Sanae.
[14:46] ---
    TOMORROW'S AGAINST MUNICH, RIGHT?
[14:48] ---
    YEP.
[14:50] ---
    TELL EVERYONE GOOD LUCK.
[14:52] ---
    THANKS.
[14:59] ---
    WISH I COULD BE THERE WITH YOU.
[15:05] ---
    No way, I can't.
[15:09] ---
    MUNICH, GERMANY
[15:10] ---
    Listen up, men.
[15:13] ---
    This is Karl Heinz Schneider,
    he's going to play for Munich.
[15:19] ---
    Greetings.
[15:20] ---
    As you know, he's moved here from Hamburg.
[15:25] ---
    Schneider played Team Japan
    in Hamburg and won 6-1.
[15:34] ---
    Guys, Schneider's watching.
    We can't be outdone. All right?
[15:38] ---
    Yeah!
[15:40] ---
    If Hamburg won 6-1, then we'll win 7-0.
[15:44] ---
    -Right, everyone?
    -Yeah!
[15:47] ---
    I wouldn't be so sure.
[15:50] ---
    Huh?
[15:52] ---
    Now for Japan
    Junior Youth's starting line up.
[16:00] ---
    JAPAN TEAM FORMATION
[16:00] ---
    Forwards are
    Hyuga, Nitta, Kazuo Tachibana.
[16:05] ---
    Midfielders are
    Tsubasa, Sawada, Masao Tachibana.
[16:07] ---
    JAPAN TEAM FORMATION
[16:10] ---
    Defenders are
    Matsuyama, Ishizaki, Soda, Jito.
[16:13] ---
    JAPAN TEAM FORMATION
[16:14] ---
    And Wakashimazu as goalie.
[16:19] ---
    Wakabayashi's contract with Hamburg
    allows him to play

[16:23] ---
    in the French International
    Junior Youth Soccer Tournament only.

[16:27] ---
    Japan Junior Youth
[16:29] ---
    will play their final match in Germany
    against Munich Junior Youth.

[16:35] ---
    Tsubasa Ozora's return is about to unfold.
[16:42] ---
    TEAM JAPAN VS MUNICH
[16:46] ---
    The vibe here in Europe is so cool.
[16:48] ---
    Yeah, I'm all fired up.
[16:50] ---
    Finally, I'm back on the field.
    We can't lose.

[16:54] ---
    Japan Junior Youth
    can't afford another loss.

[17:00] ---
    The third match of the European Tour,
    Japan Junior Youth
[17:04] ---
    versus Munich Junior Youth, has begun.
[17:08] ---
    Tsubasa.
[17:11] ---
    Go, Tsubasa.
[17:14] ---
    I haven't played in so long,
    and I've never played with these guys.

[17:19] ---
    Matsuyama is playing defense
    and the midfield is up to me.

[17:25] ---
    How I play will decide the match.
[17:27] ---
    Japan's fate is in my hands.
[17:31] ---
    Tsubasa, what are you doing?
[17:33] ---
    The other team is right there.
[17:35] ---
    Tsubasa?
[17:37] ---
    What's wrong, Tsubasa?
[17:39] ---
    Why's he just standing there?
[17:42] ---
    All right, let's go.
[17:47] ---
    He flew!
[17:49] ---
    Wh-What?
[17:50] ---
    Tsubasa!
[17:51] ---
    Wearing the number 10 uniform for
    the first time in what seems like ages,

[17:56] ---
    Tsubasa Ozora jumps and dodges the tackle.
[18:02] ---
    Yes, I can do this.
    No pain in my foot or shoulder.

[18:05] ---
    All right, let's go, guys!
[18:08] ---
    -Yeah!
    -Let's go.
[18:10] ---
    With Tsubasa in the center, Japan Junior
    Youth cuts deep into Munich territory.

[18:16] ---
    Tsubasa!
[18:21] ---
    What?
[18:23] ---
    And there goes a beautiful combo play
    by Tsubasa and Sawada.

[18:26] ---
    We can do it, we can do it.
[18:30] ---
    They don't know how we play yet.
[18:35] ---
    Here comes a Drive Shot!
[18:43] ---
    And here's an aggressive long shot
    by Tsubasa.

[18:47] ---
    -Wha...
    -What?
[18:49] ---
    What kind of shot is that?
[18:51] ---
    Drawing an arc under the German sky,
    this is Japan's Tsubasa Ozora's...

[18:57] ---
    Drive Shot!
[18:59] ---
    It's in! Japan takes an early lead.
[19:02] ---
    Schneider, he's the one
    I keep telling you about.
[19:07] ---
    The genius Japanese soccer player,
    Tsubasa Ozora.
[19:13] ---
    H-He did it, Tsubasa.
[19:17] ---
    Awesome, Tsubasa.
[19:19] ---
    N-No way!
[19:22] ---
    That shot.
[19:23] ---
    It dropped an amazing spinning drive.
[19:27] ---
    The Munich eleven are stunned
    at Tsubasa's shot.

[19:32] ---
    Tsubasa Ozora.
[19:34] ---
    And that marks Japan's
    first-point score this tour.

[19:39] ---
    Way to go, Tsubasa.
[19:41] ---
    Good job, Tsubasa.
[19:43] ---
    -Woohoo Tsubasa!
    -All right!
[19:46] ---
    Your Drive Shot is next level.
[19:48] ---
    We got the first point.
[19:50] ---
    And Team Japan celebrates.
[19:52] ---
    That was a brilliant Drive Shot
    by Tsubasa for the lead.

[19:58] ---
    Tsubasa.
[20:00] ---
    Hyuga.
[20:01] ---
    Nice shot, Tsubasa.
[20:03] ---
    Yeah.
[20:06] ---
    That goal was all you,
    but next time send some passes my way.
[20:10] ---
    Sure. But what about your leg?
[20:15] ---
    At the Bremen match yesterday,
[20:16] ---
    it looked like it was hurting
    from all that practicing the night before.
[20:20] ---
    Tsubasa.
[20:23] ---
    So you were there that night, too.
[20:25] ---
    What are you talking about?
[20:31] ---
    Don't worry, Tsubasa.
[20:33] ---
    Send as many passes over as you want.
    I'll turn them all into goals.
[20:38] ---
    Okay got it, Hyuga.
[20:42] ---
    Let's go!
[20:44] ---
    Now Munich goes on the offensive.
[20:48] ---
    We're not gonna lose to these punks.
[20:50] ---
    It's time for some tieing action.
[20:52] ---
    Yeah.
[20:53] ---
    Together with Hamburg and Bremen,
    Munich is a strong team.

[20:58] ---
    They may've got the first point,
    but Japan can't let their guard down.

[21:04] ---
    Th-Things are getting serious.
[21:07] ---
    Oh, already it's a fast play from Munich.
[21:10] ---
    They're in front of the Japanese goal.
    Japan Junior Youth better watch out.

[21:14] ---
    Mark him.
[21:16] ---
    So fast.
[21:17] ---
    Put it in, Mayer.
[21:20] ---
    Yeah.
[21:21] ---
    Not so fast.
[21:23] ---
    Oh, playing center back today,
    Matsuyama makes a good interception.

[21:30] ---
    What?
[21:31] ---
    Nice play, Matsuyama.
[21:33] ---
    Here, Tsubasa, the midfield is all yours.
[21:36] ---
    Matsuyama.
[21:38] ---
    All right, let's go.
[21:40] ---
    Let's follow Tsubasa.
[21:42] ---
    Yeah.
[21:44] ---
    He's dribbling through.
[21:45] ---
    Tsubasa, using his excellent ball handling
    skills, has cut through the midfield.

[21:50] ---
    All right.
[21:51] ---
    The ball really does seem
    to be Tsubasa's friend.
