    Even your ears are red.
[02:11] Arata
    Yuu...
[02:12] Yuu
    I thought you weren't big on
    dragging people into karuta.
[02:15] Arata
    You played karuta through
    grade school, right?
[02:18] Yuu
    Nope! Not happening!
[02:20] Yuu
    It's summer of our second year.
    We'll be exam students soon.
[02:22] Yuu
    Seriously, what's gotten into you?
[02:29] Arata
    Our world of karuta can only grow because of
    team players who keep the game alive, right?
[02:37] Arata
    How far can I really go alone?
[02:41] Guy
    Wataya-kun, I wanted to talk to you
    about competitive karuta.
[02:44] Arata
    What? Y-You play?
[02:45] Guy

    championship fifteen years ago,

    says he wants to play karuta again!

    will want to play, too.

[03:20] Arata
    A-Aren't there any students at this
    school who want to play karuta?
[03:28] Arata
    I guess I'm being pretty greedy,
[03:31] Arata
    wanting to play against their team.
[03:35] Arata
    But still...
[03:37] Arata
    It might be hard to build

    Taichi has changed.
[05:13] Chihaya
    His memorization was always super accurate,
[05:15] Chihaya
    but it's made him even
    sharper in the second half.
[05:18] Taichi
    I'll win. I can win.
[05:21] Taichi
    How much of a gap should I aim for?
[05:23] Taichi
    Should I go for Chihaya's

    Above all...
[05:28] Chihaya
    It's gotten hard to win
    with my left hand.

    Wow...

    And then come the Master qualifiers...
SIGN    He hasn't changed...
    In fact, he's worse...
[06:22] Taichi
    Chihaya, you should stop
    playing with your left hand.
[06:25] Chihaya
    Huh?
[06:25] Taichi
    You don't want to
    get too comfortable with it.
[06:27] Taichi
    Go back to your right hand.
[06:29] Chihaya
    But I'm not allowed to take off
    the taping yet...
[06:32] Taichi
    You can still hold down cards to take them.
[06:34] Chihaya
    Huh?

[06:35] Taichi
    You'll play Chihaya next.

    Here comes spring,

    Even Hanano-san is...
[07:15] Sumire
    If Mashima-senpai is focused
    more than ever on karuta,
[07:18] Sumire
    then I have to do the same.

    I have to get on his radar!

    In last year's High School Championship,
    I passed out and had to withdraw.
[08:27] Chihaya
    This year I got hurt, then had surgery,
    and still can't use my right hand.
[08:31] Chihaya
    I was sure I'd be back in
    the game by October, but now...
[08:34] Chihaya
    Does the god of karuta hate me?

    It's no surprise she's upset.
[08:47] Kanade
    Chihaya-chan, when you take off
    your shoes, line them up properly!
[08:50] Chihaya
    Huh?
[08:50] Chihaya
    Oh, sorry...
[08:51] Kanade
    Did you know that I've been straightening
    out everyone's shoes all this time
[08:55] Kanade
    without saying anything?
[08:56] Chihaya
    Yeah... Thanks.
[08:57] Kanade
    It's because, when I was little,
    my mother told me
[09:00] Kanade
    that straightening out other people's shoes
[09:03] Kanade
    would bring me one instance of good luck.
[09:05] Kanade
    After a year and a half straightening
    out the shoes of everyone in the club,
[09:10] Kanade
    I've amassed so much good luck that
[09:13] Kanade
    I probably have ten times as
    much luck in savings as you do!
[09:16] Chihaya
    L-Luck in savings?!
[09:19] Chihaya
    I'll straighten them!
    I'll get some good luck!

[09:34] Kanade
    When you're lost, why not think about
    what you want to build up within yourself
[09:39] Kanade
    and try making decisions that way?
[09:44] Kanade
    Well, I'll see you after school, Chihaya-chan.
[09:46] Chihaya
    Sure...
[09:49] Kanade
    Since I put it that way,
[09:51] Kanade
    she might end up choosing
    the Queen match over the class trip.

    I would miss her,

[16:35] Sudo
    are much tougher than the Master
    and Queen matches and qualifiers.
[16:38] Chihaya
    I'll still win!
[16:40] Sudo
    Oh? Wanna bet?
[16:41] Chihaya
    Yeah!
[16:41] Taichi
    No betting, idiot!
[16:43] Sudo
    Don't run away, club president of
    the school that won the Nationals!
[16:48] Sudo
    You'll do, too.
[16:50] Sudo
    Whichever one of us loses first has to skip
    the Master qualifiers in two weeks.
[16:57] Taichi
    Fine.
[16:58] Sudo
    Good.
[16:59] Nishida
    Not fair, Mashima!
[17:01] Nishida
    You have the class trip then anyway!
[17:05] Chihaya
    In official tournaments,
[17:07] Chihaya
    players from the same society are unlikely
    to be drawn together until the latter rounds.
[17:11] Chihaya
    I'm less likely to be drawn with Taichi
    than with Arata or Sudo-san.
SIGN    Yamai Makoto

    Ayase Chihaya
SIGN    I get the feeling he hates me...
[17:22] Chihaya
    Take everything one step at a time.
[17:26] Chihaya
    One win at a time.
[17:28] [POEM] Reader
    Naniwa Bay, now the flower
    blooms, but for winter
SIGN    Wow, Ririka-chan's grown up...
SIGN    Yikes. The Queen runner-up...
[17:36] [POEM] Reader
    Here comes spring,
    now the flower blooms
SIGN    Two club presidents! It's the red thread of fate! Cheers!!
SIGN    Class B Room
[17:43] Guy
    Things seem pretty relaxed
    in the Class B room.
[17:45] Guy
    I checked out the Class A room earlier,
    and it was way more tense.
[17:49] Guy
    I guess it would be,
    with the Master qualifiers coming up.
[17:54] Tsutomu
    Attack... Target the opponent's left!
[17:58] Tsutomu
    I know the weakness of right-handed players.
[18:01] Tsutomu
    Target the center of his left side,
    which he's less conscious of!
SIGN    it is as though pearls have been strung across the autumn plain
[18:11] Both
    Thank you very much.
[18:18] Tsutomu
    I should've known a Class B match
    wouldn't be like Class C.
[18:23] Tsutomu
    I lost by thirteen cards...
[18:25] Tsutomu
    I'm glad everyone else went
    to watch the Class A matches.
[18:29] Tsutomu
    Of course I can't win after
    I just made it to Class B.
[18:37] Tsutomu
    No! I made up my mind that
    I wouldn't think that way!
[18:40] Tsutomu
    I can't do that! I can't do that!
[18:43] (Flashback) Tsutomu
    If I win a tournament somewhere
    by October, I'll reach Class A!
[18:48] Tsutomu
    Class A...
[18:50] Tsutomu
    Even if no one else took me seriously,
[18:52] Tsutomu
    I had high hopes for myself!
[18:55] Tsutomu
    Don't decide this was a matter of course!
[18:57] Tsutomu
    Be mad! And analyze what happened!
[19:07] Kanade
    If you keep hitting yourself,
[19:09] Kanade
    you'll hurt yourself, Desktomu-kun!
SIGN    H-How are the Class A matches going?
[19:16] Kanade
    Uh... There are so many matches,
    I didn't know who to root for.
SIGN    So you were watching the Class B matches the whole time?
[19:27] Kanade
    You said you were going to win,
[19:30] Kanade
    so I wanted to be there to see it.
[19:37] Kanade
    But...
[19:38] Kanade
    It looks like I'll get to Class B before that.
[19:42] Kanade
    I'll catch up to you in no time!
[19:45] Kanade
    Come on, let's go.
[19:48] Tsutomu
    I'm not the only one with high hopes for me.
[19:52] Kanade
    I bet it's getting pretty crazy
    in the Class A room.
[19:56] Tsutomu
    I'm not the only one watching me.
SIGN    My lack of practice due to studying for entrance exams showed...
[20:00] Kanade
    Both Chihaya-chan and the Prez
    won their matches!
SIGN    Amazing.
[20:04] Kanade
    And Porky-kun...
SIGN    Nishida Yusei

     Sudo Akito
[20:08] Chihaya
    The fiercest battle of all,
    right in the first round:
[20:11] Chihaya
    Porky-kun versus Sudo-san.
[20:14] Sudo
    What's with this guy? I took a
    ten-card lead in the first half.
[20:18] Kitano
    Yusei's hanging in there!
    He's sticking with it!
[20:21] Sudo
    When I led him by twenty cards last year,
[20:24] Sudo
    I was impressed that
    he actually knew when to give up...
[20:28] Nishida
    Don't give up. I can keep fighting.
[20:31] Nishida
    I can keep struggling
    until the very last card!
[20:35] Sudo
    You've burned off enough fat
    to pass for lean meat, huh?
[20:44] Sudo
    Don't keep fighting when
    you're going to lose.
[20:46] Sudo
    You tired me out in the first match.
[20:51] Kitano
    Yusei... you've grown so much!
[20:55] Nishida
    Sudo-san is good. He'll be an obstacle.
[20:59] Nishida
    He's going to be a major obstacle
    for my teammates!
[21:04] Nishida
    I couldn't win, but I wore
    him down as much as I could.
[21:08] Nishida
    One of my teammates is gonna win!
[21:11] Nishida
    Just watch!
[21:13] (Flashback) Harada
    A team match is an individual match.
[21:16] (Flashback) Harada
    An individual match is a team match.
[21:19] Taichi
    I always thought
[21:20] Taichi
    individual matches were where
    everyone fought on their own
[21:23] Taichi
    just to try to raise their own levels...
[21:28] Taichi
    But they're not.
[21:30] Taichi
    Individual matches are the real team matches!
