    The final round in the West Japan
    Master Qualifiers...
[00:05] Kuri
    Murao Shinichi versus Wataya Arata.
[00:07] Kuri
    It's a showdown between
    Nagumo Society members.
SIGN    Hee Hee Hee
[00:11] Guy
    That's truly a match-up worthy of the finals.
[00:13] Guy
    Murao-kun was in a slump for a while,
    but he's back on his feet.
[00:16] Bros
    Shinichi-niichan!
[00:19] Yoshioka
    Murao-kun has really been showing off
    his experience and finesse lately.
[00:24] Yoshioka
    But...
[00:26] Yoshioka
    The one who seems more likely to prevent
    Master Suo's fifth win in a row is...

[02:05] Arata
    E-Excuse me...
[02:13] Arata
    I'm never eating Yuu's cooking again.
[02:15] Arata
    But what's causing this?
    The katsu? The katsuobushi?
SIGN    East Japan Semifinals
    
    Master
    Harada vs. Koishikawa
    Tsuboguchi vs. Sudo
    
    Queen
    Sakurazawa vs. Yamamoto
    Inokuma vs. Yamashiro
[02:26] Arata
    Why did I feel relieved earlier?
[02:29] Arata
    Why did knowing Taichi lost make me sigh?
[02:33] Arata
    I'm sorry about that.
[02:37] Arata
    Even in the final,
[02:39] Arata
    Murao-san is the same as always.
[02:42] Arata
    I should be, too.
[02:43] Arata
    Just play karuta like I always do.
[02:47] Guy
    It's time.
[02:49] Arata
    Do the usual.
[02:55] Arata
    Visualize that room.
[02:59] [POEM] Kyoko
    All alone...
[03:00] Kuri
    Murao-kun's fast!
[03:02] Kuri
    He went for a one-syllable card
    on Arata-kun's side!
SIGN    I never asked to be treated colder than the winds of Mount Hatsuse
[03:10] Kuri
    He split up his "Though I" and "Though my"
[03:13] Kuri
    to counter Arata-kun's strong cross stroke.
[03:16] Arata
    Murao-san is the same as always.
[03:20] [POEM] Kyoko
    Would this old...
[03:22] [POEM] Kyoko
    As this trip...
[03:25] Arata
    And yet...
[03:28] Arata
    Why am I...
[03:32] Arata
    You're getting in my way, Taichi!
[03:34] Arata
    Why are you there?
[03:37] Arata
    Taichi has a way of being unfair.
[03:42] Arata
    And he's not particularly talented,
    like Chihaya is.
[03:46] Arata
    Maybe I...
[03:49] Arata
    always looked down on Taichi in karuta.
[03:55] Arata
    On my own friend...
[04:05] [POEM] Kyoko
    The hazed early dawn light
    comes not from the moon
[04:09] Kuri
    Arata-kun's cover came too late?
[04:14] Murao
    What's wrong with him?
[04:16] Murao
    Arata's seemed off since the Yoshino Tournament.
SIGN    now white robes hang to dry on Mount Amanokagu
[04:21] Murao
    This is my chance.
[04:23] Murao
    Arata's gotten a lot stronger.
[04:25] Murao
    If he came into this in top form,
    I'd be in trouble.
[04:29] Murao
    But with him playing this poorly, I can win.
[04:32] [POEM] Kyoko
    I wish I could...
[04:34] Murao
    This year is my chance.
[04:37] (Flashback) Suo
    After I win my fifth consecutive title,
     I'm going to retire.
[04:41] Murao
    My last chance!
[05:01] Murao
    Just a moment, please.
[05:07] Murao
    Yamashiro-san is reading for us.
    We can't waste that.
[05:10] Murao
    Come back to us, Arata.
[05:39] [POEM] Kyoko
    have been so—
[05:41] Girl
    Who was that?
[05:42] Guy
    The Queen again?
[05:45] Kuri
    Re...
[05:46] Kuri
    Really? At a time like this?!
[05:48] Kuri
    Arata-kun?!
[05:49] Arata
    S-Sorry... Excuse me!
[05:53] Guy
    He left his seat!
[05:54] Guy
    The bathroom?!
[05:55] Guy
    In the middle of a match?!
[05:57] Daisuke
    Coach, what happens now?
    What about the match?
[06:01] Kuri
    Nothing happens.
[06:03] Kuri
    Cards will continue to be read,
    even if his opponent's not there.
[06:07] [POEM] Kyoko
    Note that though...
[06:09] Arata
    Unbelievable!
[06:10] Arata
    Running to the bathroom during a match?!
[06:12] Arata
    How many cards am I missing?
[06:13] Arata
    I have to hurry! Hurry!
[06:15] Arata
    Seriously, I'm never eating
    Yuu's cooking again!
[06:18] Arata
    Never again, Yuu, you idiot!
[06:20] Arata
    You idiot!
[06:21] (Flashback) Yuu
    My mom made it.
[06:23] (Flashback) Yuu
    I wouldn't mind joining your karuta club.
[06:26] (Flashback) Arata
    What kind of puny reward
    for winning is that?
[06:29] Arata
    I was such a jerk.
[06:32] Arata
    Sorry, Yuu.
[06:34] Arata
    I'm nothing special at all.
[06:40] Arata
    I'm sorry about that.
[06:50] Arata
    Four cards have gone
    while I was in the bathroom.
[06:52] Arata
    I'm behind by eleven now.
[06:54] Arata
    How many dead cards were there?
[06:56] Arata
    What was read?
[06:58] Arata
    I'm losing to Murao-san by eleven cards...
[07:07] Arata
    I've never visualized myself coming
    back from a place like this to win.
[07:11] Arata
    But... what is this?
[07:13] Arata
    What is it?
[07:15] Arata
    I can't let this match go.
[07:19] Arata
    Even if I'm embarrassed,
    even if I'm nothing special...
[07:23] Arata
    I can't run away.
[07:26] Yoshioka
    He's down by eleven.
[07:27] Yoshioka
    It'll be tough to recover from that,
    even for Wataya-kun.
[07:30] Kuri
    And it's more than just the differential at play.
[07:33] Kuri
    The rule is that no one can tell him
    what was read while he was out.
[07:38] Kuri
    He doesn't know how many dead cards were read
    in addition to the four on the board,
[07:42] Kuri
    or how the unique syllables have changed.
[07:47] Kuri
    This handicap goes far beyond
    just the differential.
[07:50] Kuri
    I'm sure Arata-kun will
    do all he can, but...
[07:53] Yoshioka
    This match is already...
[07:55] Arata
    I'm going to move my cards.
[08:06] Murao
    Arata...
[08:07] Murao
    He hasn't given up.
[08:12] Arata
    Considering the amount of time I was away,
[08:15] Arata
    there must've been two or three dead cards.
[08:17] Arata
    It's no use thinking about it.
[08:19] Arata
    I just have to keep going
    with what I do know.
[08:22] Arata
    Should I attack?
[08:24] Arata
    I'm afraid of faults and
    double faults, though.
[08:26] Arata
    I just have to do this.
[08:28] Arata
    Everyone's watching.
[08:30] Arata
    I can't make any more
    embarrassing mistakes.
[08:32] Arata
    I have to do this!
[08:35] [POEM] Kyoko
    Gust of wind...
[08:38] Guy
    What a time for a one-syllable
    card on his own side!
[08:41] Guy
    That was lucky!
[08:44] Arata
    It must be nice to have
    28 one-syllable cards, Suo-san.
SIGN    hence the name fall leaves
[08:50] Arata
    Wait, was it 27?
[08:57] Arata
    Even the Master says some
    random stuff sometimes.
SIGN    Munch Munch
SIGN    Fine

[08:59] Arata
    I don't care if I embarrass myself anymore.
[09:03] [POEM] Kyoko
    For you, I head out to the
    fields to pick spring greens
[09:05] Girl
    He jumped into the opponent's side
    to cover "For you"!
[09:08] Guy
    No hesitation at all!
[09:09] Kuri
    That's the usual Arata-kun.
[09:12] Murao
    A multi-syllable card right
    after a one-syllable card?
[09:15] Murao
    You're lucky, Arata.
[09:18] Murao
    But it won't last.
[09:21] Murao
    I have an overwhelming advantage
    when it comes to two- and three-syllable cards.
SIGN    Sone no Yoshitada Like a boatsman adrift at the mouth of the Yura, I do not know where this love will take me
[09:24] [POEM] Kyoko
    Like a boatsman...
[09:26] Kuri
    Murao-kun's fast!
[09:28] Arata
    Did he...
[09:30] Arata
    take that one after just hearing "Like"?
[09:34] Arata
    One of the dead cards was "Like the"!
[09:37] Arata
    Now there are only two dead cards
    I don't know about, at most.
[09:41] Hajime
    Arata, visualize it.
[09:46] Arata
    The cards will tell me...
[09:50] Arata
    how to visualize myself winning.

[10:13] Megumu
    She's unnaturally fast
    with her own left side.
[10:15] Yuikawa
    I'm moving my cards.
[10:20] Megumu
    She keeps moving more cards
    over from her right side.
[10:24] Megumu
    She's hoping to take them
    all from her left!
[10:27] Megumu
    A southpaw who excels
    in defending her left side!
[10:31] Megumu
    Sheesh... Another southpaw,

[10:44] [POEM] Kyoko
    My only thought as the boat takes me...
[10:50] Kuri
    Eleven cards versus eighteen...
    He's closing the gap.
[10:53] Guy
    Murao-san is staying calm.
[10:55] Girl
    He's attacking the opponent's side,
    which is standard when you have a big lead.
[10:59] Bros
    But he looks really stressed out.
[11:01] [POEM] Kyoko
    the cresting waves almost look
    like clouds in the skies
[11:06] Kuri
    What...
[11:08] Kuri
    is he worried about?
[11:10] [POEM] Kyoko
    My fear is that you will forget...
[11:12] Guy
    He landed a clean cross on "My own home"
    and "My fear is that"!
[11:15] Kuri
    "My fear is that" is the card Murao-kun
    sent him in the first half.
[11:19] Kuri
    Of course!
[11:20] Kuri
    He built an unbelievable lead over Arata-kun.
[11:24] Kuri
    He was forced to send him cards he normally
    never would have sent in the first half.
[11:29] Kuri
    That meant giving "My own" and "My fear"
    to Arata-kun, who has a strong cross stroke.
[11:34] Kuri
    That's what's bothering Murao-kun now.
[11:36] Kuri
    And he lost "My fear is that," too.
[11:40] Kuri
    When you take a big lead over someone
    who's just as good as you,
[11:43] Kuri
    it just stresses you out, even if you win.
[11:46] Arata
    Seventeen cards versus eleven...
[11:48] Arata
    I'm down by six.
[11:50] Arata
    It's not impossible. I can catch him.
[11:53] Arata
    I have to take this one card at a time.
[11:56] [POEM] Kyoko
    After I heard you say...
[11:58] Guy
    He's attacking!
[11:59] Girl
    That was fast!
[12:02] Murao
    Of course I'm gonna be stressed out.
[12:05] Murao
    You're Wataya Arata, after all.
[12:09] Murao
    Ten versus seventeen.
    I'm still seven cards ahead of Arata.
[12:14] Murao
    I couldn't ask for better.
    I'm gonna keep attacking!
[12:20] Arata
    Murao-san...
[12:22] Arata
    The other dead card...
[12:25] Arata
    was "After I determined," wasn't it?
[12:31] Arata
    I like how Murao-san plays karuta.
[12:35] Arata
    He's not swayed by what unfolds during a match.
[12:38] Arata
    His karuta is diligent and consistent.
[12:41] [POEM] Kyoko
    Said world grants no escape
[12:44] Kuri
    Arata-kun crossed over both "Said world grants
    no escape" and "Said world grants no change,"
[12:49] Kuri
    but Murao-kun was guarding it from the side
    opposite where Arata-kun's hand came from!
[12:53] Kuri
    "When there are two cards,
    I'll hold one down."
[12:56] Kuri
    You can't make a move like that
    unless you make that decision.
[12:59] Kuri
    That's how Murao-kun counters Arata-kun!
[13:02] Arata
    Murao-san's definitely a tough opponent.
[13:30] Murao
    All right!
[13:32] Murao
    My offense is working.
    I'm getting cards from his side.
[13:34] Murao
    I can still move. I'm just fine.
[13:40] Murao
    My lead is down to four?
[13:42] Murao
    Already?
[13:48] Yoshioka
    It's down to which cards are read.
[13:51] Yoshioka
    Both of them are attacking
    the opponent's side,
[13:53] [POEM] Kyoko
    Nothing can be worse...
[13:54] Yoshioka
    but most of the cards read
    are on Murao-kun's side.
[13:57] Yoshioka
    In terms of probability, more of the cards
    being read should be on Arata-kun's side,
[14:01] Yoshioka
    yet he's attacking Murao-kun's side
    with no fear whatsoever.
SIGN    as my sleeves are wet with dew
[14:07] Arata
    Once he has a lead of more than ten cards,
[14:10] Arata
    even Murao-san would only put his
    best cards closest to his hands.
[14:15] Arata
    Especially...
[14:16] [POEM] Kyoko
    Swift waters parted...
[14:16] Arata
    on his right side!
[14:20] Kuri
    Arata-kun usually plays with a
    balance of offense and defense,
[14:24] Kuri
    but he's attacking hard.
[14:27] Kuri
    He's calling the momentum to him.

    He's keeping up!
[14:50] Yoshioka
    Arata-kun was targeting
    "Impassionate," too!
[14:52] Bros
    Keep that lead, Shinichi-niichan!
[14:53] Murao
    I want to beat Master Suo.
[14:57] Murao
    He's beaten so many people on talent alone.
[15:00] Murao
    This is my last chance to
    beat him through hard work!
[15:08] Arata
    Murao-san...
[15:10] Arata
    The last dead card that was read...
[15:13] Arata
    was "Impassioned vows"?

[16:21] Arata
    Ow!
[16:22] Murao
    Don't actually smile, moron.
[16:23] Murao
    You'll make me even more depressed.
