SIGN    Looks like another hot day.
[00:04] Nishida
    Good thing Kana-chan said we
    don't have to wear hakama.
SIGN    Yeah, I would die if I had to wear that thing.
[00:12] Taichi
    Are you okay, Chihaya?
[00:15] Chihaya
    I'm okay.
[00:19] Miya
    Well, let's get going.
[00:21] Miya
    Nobody forgot anything, right?
[00:23] All
    No!
[00:25] Miya
    Listen up, everyone.
[00:27] Miya
    There is no preliminary round
    for the individual tournament,
[00:30] Miya
    so there will be over 400 competitors.
[00:33] Miya
    Ayase-san is in Class A.
[00:35] Miya
    Mashima-kun and Nishida-kun are in Class B.
[00:37] Miya
    Komano-kun and Oe-san are in Class D.
[00:39] Miya
    You'll be playing in different rooms,
[00:42] Miya
    but I want you to play your very best
[00:44] ---
    against your rivals from
    all over the country.
[00:46] All
    Yes, ma'am!
[00:47] Kanade
    That makes us enemies today, Desktomu-kun!
SIGN    I won't lose!
[00:51] Nishida
    I'm aiming to win Class B!
[00:54] Taichi
    Y-Yeah...
[00:56] Nishida
    What's wrong with you, Mashima?
[00:57] Nishida
    Show some fire.
[00:59] Taichi
    Nishida.
[01:02] Taichi
    Class B players...
[01:04] ---
    only get matched against
    other Class B players, right?
[01:06] Nishida
    Of course.
SIGN    Next time, we'll meet in a match.

[02:40] Chihaya
    Um...
SIGN    Ayase Chihaya
[02:43] Chihaya
    Oh, there I am.
SIGN    Hanamoto Ruri
[02:45] Chihaya
    I'm playing Hanamoto-san from Kagoshima.
[02:48] Chihaya
    I wonder what she's like.
[02:49] Sudo
    Ayase.
[02:51] Chihaya
    Whoa! Sudo-san!
[02:53] Sudo
    The Queen is here.
[02:54] Chihaya
    Huh?
[02:55] Sudo
    Look. She's playing our
    Amakasu in the first round.
SIGN    Amakasu Nayuta
SIGN    Wakamiya Shinobu
[03:01] Chihaya
    Wakamiya...
[03:02] Sudo
    Wakamiya Shinobu.
[03:04] Sudo
    She made Class A when she
    was in fourth grade.
[03:08] Sudo
    She's a first-year high
    school student in Kyoto.
[03:12] Chihaya
    Huh?
[03:15] Sudo
    The youngest Queen in history.
[03:19] Chihaya
    Oh, it's her.
[03:21] Chihaya
    The girl I saw at Omi Jingu yesterday.
[03:27] Person A
    She's wearing another lame T-shirt!
[03:29] Person B
    And it's tucked in!
[03:30] Person C
    Always the...
[03:31] Person D
    Why a snowman?
[03:33] Person E
    She's cute, but she has the
    fashion sense of a rock.

[03:41] Shinobu
    Oh? You came to play, Sudo-san?
[03:44] Sudo
    Hello, Queen.
[03:45] Shinobu
    Please don't call me that.
[03:48] Shinobu
    I was so relieved when
    I found out that I'm not
[03:51] ---
    playing you in the first round.
[03:53] Shinobu
    But...
[03:54] Shinobu
    You came all the way out here to
    play in the individual tournament
[03:56] ---
    after failing to make the team tournament?
[03:59] Shinobu
    You must really love karuta.
[04:02] Shinobu
    Well, please go easy on me if we end up
[04:04] ---
    playing each other.
[04:10] Sudo
    I'm gonna kill her!
[04:11] Chihaya
    Huh?!
[04:12] Sudo
    She's rubbing it in my face!
[04:15] Sudo
    I'm gonna crush you, too!
[04:17] Sudo
    Payback for regionals!
[04:23] Chihaya
    The Queen:
[04:25] Chihaya
    the top female karuta player in Japan.
[04:30] Chihaya
    My goal...
SIGN    High School National Ogura Hundred
    Poets Karuta Championship
[04:34] Chihaya
    I wonder how she plays karuta.
[04:37] Chihaya
    I wonder how strong she is.
[04:40] All
    Good luck.
[04:42] Both
    Good luck.
[04:45] Chihaya
    I need to win fast so I
    can watch the Queen play.
[04:49] [POEM] Reader
    Here comes spring,
    now the flower blooms
[04:57] [POEM] Reader
    No more can we hear...
[04:59] Chihaya
    Yes!
[05:01] [POEM] Reader
    As my love first came...
[05:02] Chihaya
    Huh?
[05:03] [POEM] Reader
    The tail feathers of...
[05:11] Chihaya
    It was silly of me to
    think I could win fast.
[05:13] Chihaya
    Every player here is Class A!
[05:18] Shinobu
    Thank you very much.
[05:19] Amakasu
    Thank you very much...
[05:21] Chihaya
    Huh?
[05:23] Chihaya
    They're already finished?
[05:26] Chihaya
    No. Concentrate.
[05:29] Chihaya
    Remember the positions of the cards.
[05:31] Chihaya
    Double check.
[05:32] Chihaya
    Play this one card at a time.
[05:34] [POEM] Reader
    May it be...
SIGN    Wakamiya Shinobu
[05:40] Person A
    She beat Amakasu from Hokuo by 24 cards?
[05:44] Person A
    Does that mean he only took one card?
[05:47] Person B
    She's good.
[05:48] Person B
    No wonder she's the Queen.
[05:51] Person C
    She brought her own cup.
[05:53] Person D
    Hot tea...
[05:59] Reader
    We will now post the
    pairings for the second round.
[06:03] Chihaya
    I want to play the Queen.
[06:07] Chihaya
    I don't want to play the Queen.
[06:10] Sudo
    I'm gonna take her down!
[06:12] Person A
    Anyone but the Queen!
[06:13] Person B
    I'm too scared to face her!
[06:15] Person C
    I can't do it!
[06:20] Chihaya
    I want to play her...
SIGN    Wakamiya Shinobu
[06:24] Chihaya
    I don't want to play her...
[06:28] Chihaya
    I want to play her!
SIGN    Ayase Chihaya
[06:41] Miya
    Oh, Ayase-san.
[06:44] Miya
    I borrowed a camcorder from Oe-san's mother.
[06:47] Miya
    I'll be recording everyone's matches today-
[06:56] Reader
    Memorization time is over!
[06:58] Shinobu
    Good luck.
[07:01] Chihaya
    Good luck.
[07:03] All
    Good luck.
[07:08] [POEM] Reader
    Naniwa Bay, now the flower blooms,
     but for winter
[07:10] Chihaya
    We're right next to the reader.
[07:13] Chihaya
    Close enough to hear her breathe...
[07:16] [POEM] Reader
    Here comes spring,
     now the flower blooms
[07:25] Chihaya
    Hear her exhale...
[07:26] [POEM] Reader
    Here comes spring,
    now the flower blooms
[07:30] Chihaya
    Listen for the first syllable!
[07:35] [POEM] Reader
    Loo—
[07:39] [POEM] Reader
    —k for the sound...
[07:41] Miya
    What was that?!
[07:46] [POEM] Reader
    but instead you see a pale
    moon in the dawn sky
[07:46] Miya
    Her hand is still a blur in slow motion!
[07:54] [POEM] Reader
    I feel as—
[07:57] Chihaya
    I can't see her move.
[07:59] [POEM] Reader
    —though I am like...
[08:02] [POEM] Reader
    The hazy field...
[08:03] Chihaya
    Her hand slices through
    the air, like a needle.
[08:07] Chihaya
    Silent karuta!
[08:12] Reader
    The second round for Class B
     is about to begin.
[08:14] Reader
    Please sit down in your assigned seat
[08:16] ---
    once you've checked who your opponent is.
[08:17] Taichi
    Oh, I win by default.
[08:19] Nishida
    No fair, Mashima!
[08:20] Nishida
    You're going to cheer for
    Kana-chan in her Class D match!
[08:23] Taichi
    Why do you think I'm going to watch Oe-san?
[08:25] Nishida
    I told Kana-chan to come cheer
    me on if her match ended early.
[08:30] Nishida
    So if you're going to watch Class D,
[08:32] ---
    tell Kana-chan that I'm rooting for her.
[08:36] Nishida
    Hey!
[08:42] Taichi
    Let's see...
SIGN    Ayase Chihaya
SIGN    Wakamiya Shinobu
[08:46] Taichi
    Wakamiya Shinobu?
[08:51] Taichi
    Chihaya's playing against the Queen!
[08:57] Miya
    She's moving so fast that I
    can't tell what's happening.
[09:01] Miya
    But one thing is clear,
[09:03] Miya
    Ayase-san's field has the same
    number of cards as before.
SIGN    Please remain quiet during matches.
[09:08] [POEM] Reader
    hear the beating of cloth,
    as a chilly autumn breeze
[09:16] Taichi
    Chihaya...
[09:19] [POEM] Reader
    descends from Mount Yoshino
    upon my long-forgotten home
[09:27] [POEM] Reader
    While it brings me no joy...
[09:30] Taichi
    Sh-She's fast!
     What was that?!
[09:32] Miya
    She's so fast.
[09:33] Miya
    She's so fast that I can't see a thing!
[09:35] Taichi
    Ms. Miyauchi,
[09:37] ---
    can I have a look?
[09:39] Miya
    Y-Yes...
[09:42] Taichi
    Chihaya reacted first.
[09:44] Taichi
    As soon as she heard "While it",
[09:47] ---
    she moved towards the "While it may"
    card on the opponent's side.
[09:51] Taichi
    She was positioned perfectly to come back
[09:53] ---
    for the "While it brings" card on her own side.
[09:55] Taichi
    But the Queen didn't move until
    she heard the third syllable...
[10:00] Taichi
    She's so fast that she can afford to wait?
[10:05] [POEM] Reader
    So the flower pe—
[10:08] [POEM] Reader
    —tals are scattered like the
    snow by the passing storm,
[10:13] Taichi
    Chihaya...
[10:14] Person A
    Here we go again.
[10:16] Person B
    She's already up by ten cards?
[10:17] Person C
    Wakamiya Shinobu's on a
    whole different level.
[10:20] Person D
    I feel bad for the girl playing her.
[10:21] Person E
    She's probably ready to throw in the towel.
[10:25] Taichi
    Chihaya is just as fast as the Queen
[10:27] ---
    when she's focused on one card.
[10:30] Taichi
    But there are dozens of cards on the field.
[10:33] Taichi
    She can't focus on that many
    cards at the same time.
[10:36] Taichi
    But the Queen can do it?
[10:43] Chihaya
    Stay calm...
[10:44] Chihaya
    The Queen must be vulnerable somewhere.
[10:47] Chihaya
    She left the "May the time spent" and
    "May the time we" cards next to each other,
[10:50] Chihaya
    even though "May the scarlet" has been read, so
    I could just hit both cards after hearing "May the".
[10:53] Harada
    I am stunned!
[10:55] Harada
    Why wouldn't you separate those cards?!
[10:56] ---
    It baffles me!
[10:58] Chihaya
    She's asking for it...
[11:00] Chihaya
    Go!
[11:02] Chihaya
    Hit both cards at the same time!
[11:05] Taichi
    Chihaya, it's so obvious what you're doing!
[11:08] [POEM] Reader
    My fear is no...
[11:10] [POEM] Reader
    The sight of Mount Arima...
[11:12] Taichi
    See?
[11:13] Taichi
    This is what happens when
    you focus on one card!
[11:15] Taichi
    But that first card is always big.
[11:20] Taichi
    You haven't given up yet, right?
[11:23] Taichi
    Chihaya, show everyone your
    ability to go on the attack!
[11:28] [POEM] Reader
    May the—
[11:28] Chihaya
    There it is!
[11:31] [POEM] Reader
    —time we spend apart from one another be
[11:32] Taichi
    What?!
[11:34] Miya
    Mashima-kun, who took that card?
[11:37] Miya
    It was hard to tell.
[11:40] Taichi
    Yes...
[11:41] Miya
    What happens when neither player
    is sure who took the card?
[11:45] Miya
    They can ask the judge or
    discuss it between themselves.
[11:49] Miya
    However, the best players always know.
[11:55] Chihaya
    I was aiming to hit both cards,
[12:01] Chihaya
    but the Queen was aiming for
    a single point on the field.
[12:10] Chihaya
    What am I supposed to do...
[12:14] Chihaya
    What am I supposed to do?
[12:20] Chihaya
    What am I supposed to do?
[12:22] Harada
    Chihaya-chan, go on the attack.
[12:26] Harada
    Your primary focus should always be
[12:28] ---
    to push the opponent's side.
[12:32] Chihaya
    I'm on the attack.
[12:34] ---
    I don't know how to do anything else!
[12:36] Shinobu
    Daddy Bear?!
[12:37] Chihaya
    Huh?
[12:40] Shinobu
    Excuse me.
[12:41] Chihaya
    Huh? What?!
[12:43] Chihaya
    Is she talking about my T-shirt?!
[12:46] Chihaya
    The Queen is wearing a Snowmaru T-shirt!
[12:49] Chihaya
    Snowmaru only has an official shop in Osaka
[12:50] ---
    so you have to order everything online!
[12:53] Chihaya
    He's a super cute character with a topknot
[12:55] ---
    when he takes the bucket off his head!
[12:56] Snow
    It's my most attractive feature.
[13:02] Chihaya
    No, concentrate on the match.
[13:05] Chihaya
    Right.
[13:07] Chihaya
    The Queen is a 16-year-old girl,
    just like me.
[13:10] Chihaya
    I can beat her.
[13:11] [POEM] Reader
    as short-lived as the reeds of Naniwa Bay
[13:12] Shinobu
    That was bad.
[13:14] Shinobu
    Stay focused.
[13:20] [POEM] Reader
    Said world offers no change...
[13:24] Person A
    Did you see that?!
[13:26] Person B
    Wow...
[13:27] Miya
    Grr.
[13:28] Miya
    What was that about?!
[13:30] Miya
    She made a weird move.
[13:31] Taichi
    Yes, she was covering her own card.
[13:33] Miya
    Covering?
[13:35] Taichi
    "Said world offers no change"
    was on Chihaya's side.
[13:37] Taichi
    "Said world offers no escape"
    was on the Queen's side.
[13:40] Taichi
    These are multi-syllable cards,
[13:42] Taichi
    and you have to wait to hear
[13:44] ---
    the next syllable after the "no",
[13:46] Taichi
    so players cover their own cards
[13:49] ---
    to prevent them from being taken.
[13:50] Miya
    You can do that?
[13:53] Taichi
    Both players were covering their own cards,
[13:55] ---
    then the card on Chihaya's side was read.
[13:59] Taichi
    All she had to do was
    press down on the card.
[14:02] Taichi
    But before Chihaya was able to do that,
[14:05] ---
    the Queen slipped her hand underneath.
[14:12] Chihaya
    I can't do it.
[14:16] Chihaya
    I don't see how
[14:19] ---
    I can win.
[14:24] Person A
    I feel so bad for her.
[14:25] Person B
    This is like a public execution.
[14:29] Person C
    I really hope I don't have to play her.
[14:30] Person D
    At this rate, she'll lose before
    she can take a single card.
[14:35] Taichi
    If you fall too far behind,
[14:36] [POEM] Reader
    when the fisherman who casts
    his nets can seem dear
[14:36] ---
    it becomes difficult to go on the attack.
[14:38] Taichi
    Since there's a higher chance
[14:40] ---
    that a card on your own side will be read.
[14:43] Taichi
    You unconsciously shift
    to a defensive posture.
[14:45] [POEM] Reader
    My own home is...
[14:47] Taichi
    Plus, she has total control
    over her own side.
[14:49] Taichi
    The Queen is playing defensive karuta.
[14:51] Taichi
    You can't break through,
[14:53] Taichi
    but Chihaya doesn't have a choice.
[14:55] Taichi
    Hang in there, Chihaya!
[14:56] [POEM] Reader
    While it may be...
[14:59] Taichi
    What was that, Chihaya?
[15:01] Taichi
    Why didn't you attack that card?
[15:06] Shinobu
    Oh, not again.
[15:09] Shinobu
    My opponents are always fired
    up when the match starts.
[15:13] (Flashback) Amakasu
    I get to play the Queen!
[15:14] (Flashback) ---
    Time to make myself look good!
[15:16] Shinobu
    But...
[15:18] Shinobu
    Soon enough, it's like I'm back to playing
    karuta by myself again.
[15:23] Shinobu
    Well, I don't really mind.
[15:27] Shinobu
    Let's make this quick.
[15:33] Person A
    She's up by 15 cards?
[15:35] Person B
    Yeah.
[15:38] Person C
    Huh? What?
[15:39] Person D
    What happened?!
[15:42] Person B
    Sorry! I'm sorry!
[15:50] Chihaya
    Taichi... Ms. Miyauchi...
[15:53] Taichi
    You can do this, Chihaya!
[15:55] Miya
    Keep trying, Ayase-san!
[15:58] Chihaya
    But I don't know what I should do.
[16:02] Chihaya
    I can't take a single card off
    her if I play my usual karuta.
[16:08] Chihaya
    This has never happened before.
[16:15] (Flashback) Arata
    I never show mercy.
[16:20] Chihaya
    I'm mad.
[16:21] Chihaya
    I want to take a card.
[16:23] Chihaya
    I should at least be able to take one card!
[16:33] Chihaya
    Excuse me.
[16:37] Chihaya
    Whenever Sudo was in a bad
    position, he would stand up
[16:41] Chihaya
    and act all arrogant.
[16:43] Chihaya
    Huh?
[16:45] Chihaya
    Is the Queen left-handed?
[16:48] Chihaya
    Ugh, I just now realized this?
[16:51] Chihaya
    I'm really out of it!
[16:56] Chihaya
    Sorry about that.
[16:59] Chihaya
    I can't be mentally weaker now
    than I was when I was 12!
[17:05] Shinobu
    Oh?
[17:07] ---
    She's back?
[17:10] Shinobu
    Hmm...
[17:12] Shinobu
    I wonder how long she'll last this time.
[17:14] [POEM] Reader
    I volunteer to shield the
    people with my dark sleeves
[17:24] [POEM] Reader
    When winds send waves...
[17:26] Taichi
    She attacked before coming back!
[17:28] Taichi
    It's close!
[17:29] Taichi
    Who was first?
[17:36] Chihaya
    The Queen was faster
    because she went straight
[17:38] ---
    for the attack while
    I attacked before coming back.
[17:43] Chihaya
    But this is how I learned to play karuta!
[17:47] Harada
    Chihaya-chan, think about it.
[17:50] Harada
    If you can take a card from
    the far row of a player
[17:53] ---
    who's big on defense,
[17:54] Harada
    you'll give them a big shock!
[17:58] Chihaya
    This is how I get back in the game!
[18:01] [POEM] Reader
    I recall how my own efforts were in vain
[18:10] [POEM] Reader
    May the time spent in our...
[18:15] Shinobu
    She hit my hand?
[18:17] Shinobu
    So it was close?
[18:19] Shinobu
    Oh, impressive.
[18:23] Taichi
    You did it, Chihaya!
[18:24] Miya
    It's your first card!
[18:26] Chihaya

    Didn't she start moving
    while "Gust" was being read?
[19:57] Taichi
    The "G"...
[20:00] Taichi
    This is what Dr. Harada meant.
[20:02] Taichi
    Chihaya can hear "Gust"
    before it's actually spoken.
[20:07] Taichi
    Her ears pick up that hard "G"...
[20:13] Taichi
    "Gust of wind" is one of Chihaya's best cards.
