[01:11] Suo
    If I could pick who I face in
    the Master match,
[01:15] Suo
    I'd want it to be Dr. Harada.
[01:20] Harada
    Suo...
[01:26] Harada
    Suo Hisashi...
[01:28] Harada
    The current Master...
[01:31] Harada
    If he defends his title one more time,
    he'll be an Eternal Master.
[01:44] Harada
    Slowly...
[01:47] Harada
    I can take this slowly.
[01:49] Harada
    Just get up.
SIGN    on a long September night, and then I saw a dawn moon
[01:52] Harada
    The great thing about karuta
[01:54] Harada
    is that there are no time limits.
[01:57] Harada
    I can take it slowly.
[01:59] Harada
    Just get up.

[02:02] Harada
    I just kept playing with no strategy
    and no concern for my knee.
[02:08] Harada
    Was I dreaming or something?
[02:11] Harada
    I was sucked in.
[02:13] Harada
    I never expected to find a 17-year-old like him.
[02:17] Harada
    Sheesh...
SIGN    Swoosh...
[02:20] Harada
    Sheesh.
SIGN    Gulp
[02:24] Suo
    It's getting cold.
SIGN    My bride...♥
[02:26] Suo
    Use this.
[02:33] Harada
    Sheesh.
[02:35] Harada
    Even when I'm not moving,
    I can hear my knee throbbing.
[02:40] Harada
    Give me a break!
[02:41] Harada
    Too much outside noise could be fatal...
[02:45] Harada
    to my comeback!
[02:46] [POEM] Makino
    The sky may hold the same moon
[02:50] Guy
    He gets to his opponent's right side that fast
    when his play style isn't even that offensive?
[02:54] Harada
    A young man imitating a great predecessor...
[02:58] Harada
    I thought I could get away
    with seeing him that way.
[03:01] Harada
    But he's not.
[03:03] Harada
    He's the real deal.
[03:04] Harada
    No matter where the cards are moved to,
    he's flexible and balanced enough to take them.
[03:10] Harada
    How can I beat him?
[03:14] Harada
    How?
[03:15] Taichi
    Dr. Harada...
[03:17] Taichi
    How can you put so much into this?
[03:20] (Flashback) Harada
    "Put your entire youth into it
    without becoming stronger"?
[03:24] (Flashback) Harada
    Say that after you've actually done it.
[03:27] Taichi
    I've already put my youth into it.
    That's why it scares me.
[03:31] Taichi
    What if there's nothing left at the end?
[03:34] Taichi
    What if I end up with nothing but regrets?
[03:39] Kitano
    Harada...
[03:41] Kitano
    Thirty-one years ago,
[03:43] Kitano
    when he challenged the Master
    for the first time,
[03:46] Kitano
    Harada was definitely strong.
[03:49] (Flashback) Guy
    You almost had him, Harada-kun!
[03:51] (Flashback) Guy
    With a lucky break or two,
    you might've had a chance.
[03:53] (Flashback) Guy
    You probably didn't have time to practice,
    what with your med school residency.
[03:57] (Flashback) Harada
    I'll take the Master title next time!
[04:00] (Flashback) Guy
    That kind of big talk suits you!
[04:02] Kitano
    No one doubted the momentum he had.
[04:06] Kitano
    At age 26, he had the ultimate talent for karuta,
[04:09] Kitano
    and his game sense was unmatched.
[04:12] Kitano
    And yet...
[04:14] Kitano
    His first posting as a doctor was in Okinawa.
[04:17] (Flashback) Harada
    The ocean's blue, but there's
    no one to play karuta with!
[04:20] Kitano
    His next posting was in Hokkaido.
[04:23] (Flashback) Harada
    All they have here are wooden cards!
SIGN    Harada Internal Medicine/Pediatrics
[04:26] Kitano
    And by the time he finally opened
    his own practice in Tokyo...
[04:35] Kitano
    he was 37 years old and no longer had
    his youthful hearing and reflexes.
[04:41] Kitano
    His natural game sense had
    begun to grow clouded.
[04:48] [POEM] Makino
    The tail feathers...
[04:49] Arata
    Dead card!
[04:50] [POEM] Makino
    Said night was young when
    the false rooster's crow,
[04:52] Arata
    Another one!
[04:53] Lady
    Lunging like that on dead cards...
[04:54] Guy
    Just like in the first round.
[04:56] Lady
    No, this was even stronger than that.
[04:59] Lady
    Thrusting at the opponent's lower right side
    in a way that can't be called a false start...
[05:03] Lady
    He's playing offense.
[05:05] Arata
    In the first round, I was extra careful
[05:08] Arata
    and put fewer cards on my right side.
[05:10] Arata
    But Grandpa wouldn't do that.
    He placed more emphasis on balance.
[05:15] Arata
    Besides all that...
SIGN    the red that is the Tatsuta River
SIGN    hence the name fall leaves
SIGN    in my dreams, I creep closer to you
[05:17] Arata
    The cards remaining on my right side...
SIGN    the red that is the Tatsuta River
SIGN    hence the name fall leaves
[05:20] Arata
    I can take them.
[05:21] Arata
    I will take them!
[05:23] [POEM] Makino
    As the first frost...
[05:26] Kitano
    H-He's being crazy again!
[05:29] Kitano
    He launched his whole body toward
    his opponent's right side,
[05:31] Kitano
    and only his arm reached for the left!
[05:33] Guy
    That'd make anyone fall over.
[05:35] Harada
    I got it, though!
SIGN    as my concern this morning is as tangled as my black hair
[06:03] [POEM] Makino
    May my sighs be blamed upon the moon,
[06:05] Taichi
    Dr. Harada went for "May I see"
    but returned to "May my sighs"!
SIGN    Again...!
[06:08] Hiroshi
    And he kept blocking
    Wataya-kun the whole time!
[06:10] Kitano
    I've never seen so much slamming
    and crashing in a match!
[06:13] Kitano
    Are you a grade school kid?!
    What a disgrace!
[06:36] Harada
    Thanks, Glasses.
[06:41] Harada
    Not everyone is blessed with
    such abundant talent.
[06:45] (Flashback) Harada
    Fine hairs inside the ear
    vibrate when air hits them.
[06:50] (Flashback) Harada
    Continuous vibrating over time
[06:52] (Flashback) Harada
    wears down these fine hairs,
    making it harder to hear higher pitches.
[06:56] (Flashback) Harada
    This is how ears age.
[06:58] (Flashback) Harada
    Once lost, the fine hairs in
    the ear never regenerate.
[07:02] (Flashback) Harada
    So I can never go back to being
    a player with good game sense...
[07:07] (Flashback) Kid
    Dr. Harada! Dr. Harada!
[07:10] (Flashback) Kid
    Let's play karuta, Dr. Harada!
[07:12] (Flashback) Kid
    Yeah! Let's play!
[07:13] (Flashback) Kid
    Dr. Harada! I came in third
    at my school's tournament!
[07:16] (Flashback) Kid
    Hey, as a member of the Shiranami Society,
     you should've won, Yuta!
[07:21] Harada
    Not everyone has good game sense.
[07:25] Harada
    I need to find a different weapon!
[07:35] Suo
    Huh? Where are you going?
[07:38] Harada
    The Shiranami Society teaches karuta that
    makes players with poor game sense stronger!
[07:44] [POEM] Makino
    Impassioned vows exchanged over
    many a tear shed to last
[07:45] Guy
    Dead card!
[07:46] Guy
    He attacked again, but did he stop himself?
[07:48] Guy
    Wait, did he?!
[07:50] Arata
    Uh... You touched that, didn't you?
[07:53] Harada
    Nope.
[07:54] Arata
    B-But... I think you did...
SIGN    You touched "Impassionate" a little...
[07:56] Harada
    If that's what you think,
    then send me a card.
[08:00] All
    Nasty...
[08:11] Kuri
    He lost one!
[08:13] Kuri
    Arata-kun lost a one-syllable
    card on his own side!
SIGN    the sight of a midnight moon
[08:30] Kuri
    He's putting the card he was sent
    on the right side for balance.
[08:34] Kuri
    Even though he knows it'll be targeted...
[08:37] Arata
    This is what Grandpa would do, even if
    his right side was being targeted.
[08:42] Arata
    I'll fight for all the cards.
[08:45] Arata
    I'll take them wherever they are.
[08:47] Harada
    Ten to six...
[08:50] Harada
    If there's any way to win from here, it's...
[08:54] Harada
    to attack without hesitation,
    even if it breaks my personal style!
[08:58] Guy
    H-He got four in a row!
[09:00] Chihaya
    Excuse me.
[09:03] Chihaya
    Sorry.
[09:07] Taichi
    Chihaya?
[09:18] Arata
    The momentum isn't favoring me.
[09:20] Arata
    All the cards being read
    are on my right side.
SIGN    the red that is the Tatsuta River
SIGN    hence the name fall leaves
[09:25] Arata
    Should I abandon that side?
[09:29] Chihaya
    If I were still in grade school...
[09:32] Chihaya
    Arata, you're amazing!
[09:33] Chihaya
    You can totally do this!
[09:35] Chihaya
    Keep it up!
[09:37] Chihaya
    If I were still in middle school...
[09:40] (Flashback) Harada
    You're joining the track team?
[09:42] (Flashback) Harada
    You won't be able to play in
    most karuta tournaments, then.
[09:45] (Flashback) Chihaya
    Everything is for karuta.
[09:48] (Flashback) Harada
    I see. I'll be waiting for you anytime.
[09:54] Chihaya
    And in high school... I...
[09:58] (Flashback) Harada
    Stop concentrating on speed.
[10:01] (Flashback) Harada
    No matter how upset you are,
[10:03] (Flashback) Harada
    you must thank your opponent.
[10:06] (Flashback) Harada
    Feels like a team match, doesn't it?
[10:08] Harada
    This year, I will be the challenger!
[10:15] Chihaya
    Dr. Harada...
[10:16] Chihaya
    You can do it!
[10:18] Taichi
    Dr. Harada!
[10:20] Taichi
    Dr. Harada!
[10:22] All
    You can do it!
[10:30] Harada
    Glasses...
[10:32] Harada
    I'm sure you have people on your side.
[10:34] Harada
    You'll always have Master Wataya
    standing beside you, too.
[10:39] Harada
    But in the very end...
[10:58] Harada
    No matter how many people are on your side,
[11:01] Harada
    no matter who taught you,
[11:03] Harada
    in the very end...
SIGN    when I cannot bear growing any weaker than I already have
[11:15] Kitano
    It's a dead card!
[11:16] Guy
    A mistake!
[11:17] Guy
    Who hit it?
[11:19] Guy
    Who was it?!
[11:23] Kuri
    Which one...
[11:25] All
    ...is the winner?!
[11:32] Both
    Thank you very much.
[11:43] Chihaya
    Dr. Harada!
[11:45] Guy
    The winner of the Master challenger playoff is...
[11:48] Chihaya
    It's Dr. Harada!
[11:50] Guy
    ...Harada Hideo, grade 6!
[12:08] Chihaya
    He did it!
[12:11] Chihaya
    He did it!
[12:13] Nishida
    Coach Kitano? Where are you going?
[12:15] Kitano
    What difference does it
    make?! Don't follow me!
[12:20] Harada
    In the very end, you're all alone...
[12:24] Harada
    No.
[12:26] Harada
    In karuta, it's you and the reader.
[12:32] Harada
    Thank you.
[12:33] Harada
    Makino-san, your nasal tones...
[12:35] Makino
    Can't you stand up? What a sad sight.
[12:39] Harada
    ...resonated deeply within me.

    Thank you.

    But he had the skill to dodge it.

[14:09] (Flashback) Chihaya
    Wataya-kun said that the card
    has the same name as me!
[14:13] Arata
    I shouldn't have gotten fixated on those.
[14:15] Arata
    Is that why I lost?

    No.

    It was an incredible match!
[14:44] Arata
    Yeah...
[14:46] Chihaya
    You and Dr. Harada play in completely
    different ways. It was so interesting to see!
[14:59] Arata
    What would you have done, Chihaya?
[15:02] Chihaya
    Huh?
[15:03] Arata
    At the end...
[15:08] Chihaya
    I play offensive karuta,
[15:11] Chihaya
    so I think I would've sent both
    "Gust" and "Impassionate."
[15:15] Chihaya
    Because they're special.
[15:23] Chihaya
    The more I want a card,
    the faster I let it go.
[15:27] Chihaya
    Then I go in determined to take it.
[15:45] (Flashback) Chihaya
    I wouldn't want to talk to people who kept
    taking notes just so they could laugh at me.
