    Results.
[01:18] Harada
    There are those who believe the effort you
    invest is more important than the results,
[01:24] Harada
    but that's incredibly stressful
    for both teachers and students.
[01:29] Harada
    Thoughts like "I tried" and "It was so hard"
    can be blown away like the wind.
[01:35] Harada
    But "results" are a bedrock.
[01:37] Harada
    The foundation that holds your efforts in place.
[01:41] Harada
    And...
[01:43] Guy
    I didn't know the Shiranami Society
    had young up-and-comers like these.
[01:46] Lady
    They're both from the team that
    won the High School Championship?
[01:49] Lady
    That's amazing!
[01:50] Lady
    I didn't know that.
[01:51] Guy
    Ayase Chihaya and Mashima Taichi...
[01:54] Guy
    Neither of them holds a title?
[01:55] Lady
    Will they be in the Master and Queen qualifiers?
[01:58] Guy
    Who's going to win their first title?
[02:00] Guy
    Winning the Yoshino Tournament
    would be a huge boost.
[02:04] Harada
    And... "results" will bring to you
[02:12] Harada
    a powerful tailwind.
[02:23] (Flashback) Harada
    Feels like a team match, doesn't it?
[02:25] (Flashback) Nishida
    One of my teammates is gonna win!
[02:26] (Flashback) Taichi
    It's nice to have a senpai, isn't it?
[02:28] (Flashback) Hiroshi
    I'd like to yield the match.

    It will support you.
[02:30] (Flashback) Taichi
    Dr. Harada is weighing him down.
[02:32] (Flashback) Miyauchi
    Tasuki!
[02:33] (Flashback) Hiroshi
    ...show that your skill's
    what got you here!
[02:35] (Flashback) Arata
    You said you were going to win all
     your games today in that kimono, right?
[02:50] Chihaya
    We came this far
SIGN    reminds me of the lonely dawns after we parted
[02:52] Chihaya
    with the support of so many people.
[02:56] Both
    Thank you very much.
[02:59] Both
    Thank you very much.

[03:11] Guy
    The Yoshino Tournament Class A winner is
[03:14] Guy
    Ayase Chihaya-san of the Shiranami Society.
[03:18] Lady
    I didn't know there was a player like her.
[03:20] Guy
    She's Harada-san's star pupil.
[03:22] Guy
    She defeated the runner-up Master
    Takemura and former Queen Inokuma!
[03:25] Guy
    She has real talent.
[03:27] Guy
    Damn, she's pretty!
[03:28] Lady
    She's a high school second-year?
    Same age as the Queen?
[03:31] Guy
    She's the favorite for
    the East Japan qualifiers?
[03:37] Kanade
    Chihaya-chan!
[04:02] Lady
    That was just amazing.
[04:04] Lady
    The Shiranami Society earned
    lots of points today.
[04:07] Harada
    Oh, not at all.
[04:08] Lady
    The Master and Queen qualifiers
     are going to be exciting!
[04:11] Lady
    And she's such a pretty girl, too.
[04:13] Lady
    A Queen match between her and Wakayama,
    both the same age, would be huge.
[04:18] Lady
    Especially since it'll be televised!
[04:22] Kanade
    I'm so glad she looks pretty to people
    who don't know her well.
[04:27] Kanade
    As exhausted as she is right now,
    she just looks like this to us.
SIGN    Daze
[04:32] Guy
    Who's going to be in the
    qualifiers two weeks from now?
[04:35] Guy
    The top contenders will be Yamamoto Yumi-san
[04:38] Guy
    and Urabe-san from Gunma.
[04:39] Guy
    Inokuma-san's likely to be there, too.
    And from Saitama...
[04:42] Guy
    If we're talking about momentum,
    today's winner, Ayase-san, is up there.
[04:45] Guy
    I sure hope she wins.
[04:48] Kanade
    Chihaya-chan... The class trip...
[04:52] Miyauchi
    The winds are blowing toward her...
[04:56] Miyauchi
    The winds of expectation.
[04:59] Miyauchi
    Ayase-san, if you want to be in
    the Queen qualifiers,
[05:03] Miyauchi
    we can discuss it.
[05:06] Miyauchi
    In the case of a very
    important official match,
[05:08] Miyauchi
    you can always request
    an authorized absence.
[05:11] Miyauchi
    And the Queen match is the most
    important one of all for you, isn't it?
[05:16] Miyauchi
    Think it over. I'll be here to help you.
[05:23] Mom
    Chihaya!
[05:25] Mom
    Chihaya! I'm sorry I ran late!
[05:33] Mom
    Wait, am I too late?
[05:35] Mom
    You're out of your hakama already?
[05:37] Mom
    I even rushed to buy a
    camera on my way here!
[05:39] Mom
    Oh... I guess I could just
    take a picture with my phone.
[05:42] Mom
    But the shutter's so slow on mine,
[05:44] Mom
    and I panicked because you asked me
    to come out of the blue!
[05:48] Mom
    So, how'd your match go?
[05:51] Mom
    Did you do the best you could?
[05:53] Mom
    Was it fun?
SIGN    Huh?
[05:56] Both
    Huh?
[05:58] Chihaya
    M-Mom... I...
[06:02] Chihaya
    I want to go on the class trip!
[06:06] Mom
    Huh? O-Of course you can go!
[06:09] Chihaya
    I want...
[06:12] Chihaya
    to be a high school teacher!
[06:16] Chihaya
    What kind of teacher would I be
    if I've never been on a class trip?!
[06:21] Chihaya
    I want to be Queen, too,
[06:24] Chihaya
    but I want to be an advisor and coach,
    like Ms. Miyauchi and Coach Sakurazawa!
[06:32] Chihaya
    But today was this hakama's first match,
[06:38] Chihaya
    and I wanted to win!
[06:41] Chihaya
    I did win!
[06:44] Chihaya
    Taichi and I worked so hard!
[06:49] Chihaya
    I did it.
[06:52] Chihaya
    I did it.
[06:57] Chihaya
    I did the best I could.
[07:02] Chihaya
    And it was fun.
[07:18] Arata
    Taichi.
[07:21] Arata
    Something wrong?
[07:25] Taichi
    Nah. I'm just tired.
[07:34] Arata
    Chihaya was really good.
[07:39] Taichi
    She was.
[07:46] Arata
    Why aren't I the one
[07:48] Arata
    playing against Chihaya right now?
[07:54] Arata
    Taichi...
[08:00] Arata
    You might laugh at this,
[08:02] Arata
    but for whatever reason,
[08:05] Arata
    I always thought of Chihaya as yours.
[08:12] Arata
    You're the one who's been by her side
    all these years, not me.
[08:20] Taichi
    What are you talking about, you weirdo?
[08:23] Taichi
    I...
[08:25] Taichi
    ...think of Chihaya as
    belonging to both of us.
[08:30] Taichi
    There's not much difference
    between Arata and me.
[08:34] Taichi
    Even though I'm closer to her...
[08:38] Arata
    But Chihaya doesn't really belong
    to anyone, does she?

    you want, Chi-chan?
[09:05] Michiru
    You had to miss the Queen qualifiers for this.
[09:08] Michiru
    Sure you won't regret it?
[09:10] Chihaya
    There'll be another Queen match
     next year! I'll try then!
SIGN    We'll have
    exams next
     year...
[09:13] Chihaya
    But this year...
[09:16] Chihaya
    I want to make memories with you!
[09:23] Nishida
    Well, you're our class' captain, Horikawa.
SIGN    Class 2-9
[09:26] Michiru
    Jeez, you guys keep following me
    around, even during free time!

    Anyway, today we're all going
    to Kiyomizu Temple together.
[09:32] Michiru
    Tomorrow, after the Golden Pavilion,
    our free time will be at Shigureden.
[09:36] All
    Okay!

[09:38] Girl
    What's wrong with Oe-san?
[09:40] Girl
    She said she couldn't sleep last night.
[09:42] Girl
    She couldn't stop reading guides on kimono shops,
    museums, shrines, and temples,
[09:45] Girl
    along with classical books
    for a sense of immersion.
SIGN    Class 2-1

SIGN    Ayase, we need to talk.
SIGN    It seems like Mashima didn't show up.
[10:10] Chihaya
    Huh?
SIGN    The teacher said he called the school saying he had a fever.
[10:14] Chihaya
    What?! Taichi's sick?! How could he
    let that happen when we have our class trip?
SIGN    Well...
[10:19] Chihaya
    Is his fever that bad?
[10:21] Chihaya
    I'll try to call him.
SIGN    Wait, Ayase...
SIGN    Th-That's probably not what it is.
[10:27] Chihaya

    Taichi didn't show up
    for his own class trip?
[11:14] Chihaya
    Why?
[11:16] Chihaya
    Don't tell me... Don't tell me he...
[11:19] Taichi
    What do you want, Chihaya?
    You're getting annoying.
[11:21] Chihaya
    You finally answered!
[11:23] Chihaya
    Taichi! What the heck are you doing?!
SIGN    She's so loud...
[11:26] Taichi
    I have a fever, so I'm resting. What else?
[11:30] Chihaya
    The fever thing was true?!
[11:31] Taichi
    Yes, it's true. 39 degrees Celsius.
[11:33] Chihaya
    39 degrees?!
[11:34] Chihaya
    That's bad!
[11:36] Taichi
    I've been to Kyoto lots of times, anyway.
[11:38] Taichi
    So I figured I could just skip.
[11:40] Chihaya
    Wow... Rich kid.
[11:42] Taichi
    Is that all? I'm hanging up, then.

[12:24] Mom
    Should you be up and walking around?
[12:27] Taichi
    Yeah. I'm going out to study.
[12:29] Mom
    Studying rather than forcing yourself
    to go on a class trip?
[12:32] Mom
    I think you made the right choice, personally.

    It's the autumn of your second year.

SIGN    Since he and I are in the same class,

SIGN    He wants to go to medical school,
SIGN    so by this time next year, he'll be too busy for our club.

    Chihaya doesn't really belong

    Why did I even think that?
[18:17] Arata
    Why aren't I the one

    and when I couldn't play karuta.

    The time we spent together was my treasure.
[18:31] Arata
    What is this impatience I'm feeling?

[19:16] Yuu
    Tomorrow is their son's big day,

    or katsu curry or anything?

    Oh... Yeah. They're the same as ever.
SIGN    Relatives are in town, so we're heading to a family restaurant. It's cheaper than cooking for them.

[19:29] Arata
    Thanks.

    Why do you look so down?
[19:36] Arata
    Huh?
[19:37] Yuu
    You've waited a whole
    year for the qualifiers.
[19:41] Yuu
    If you win, won't that attract new members
    to your karuta club at school?
[19:47] Yuu
    I...
[19:49] Yuu
    wouldn't mind joining it.
[19:52] Arata

    shouting out the obvious.
[20:20] Yuu
    Okay, good luck, then!
[20:26] Arata
    What's this?
[20:29] Arata
    Her mom didn't make this.
[20:32] Arata
    Yuu's the only one who would put
    katsudon and katsu curry together.
[20:42] Shiho
    Shinobu, could you get that?
[20:45] Shinobu
    Sure.
[20:47] Shiho
    Y-You're still in your pajamas!
[20:49] Shiho
    It's fine. I'll get the door.
[20:51] Shinobu
    No, they're my street clothes. I'm good.
[20:53] Shiho
    W-Wait, Shinobu!
[20:55] Shinobu
    Coming!
[21:00] Suo
    Shinobu-chan, for this year...
SIGN    Snowmaru
    Dorayaki
[21:04] Suo
    Why don't we go make things
    a little more exciting?
[21:11] Chihaya
    The day that a whole year,
[21:13] Chihaya
    or even longer, of hard work turns
    toward making dreams come true.
[21:21] Chihaya
    In the west,
[21:22] Chihaya
    and in the east,
[21:24] Chihaya
    a very special day is about to begin.
