[00:00] Tsu
    When I was five, this cat
    we owned disappeared one day.
[00:06] Tsu
    My dad's fatal accident
    wasn't long after that.
[00:11] Tsu
    That's just life, I figured.
[00:14] Tsu
    But maybe life isn't about
    counting all the things you've lost.
[00:22] Tsu
    I've come to the conclusion...
[00:23] Tsu
    that life is about increasing the
    number of important things in it.
[00:27] Tsu
    I have people around me
    who have taught me that.
[00:30] Tsu
    My precious friends,
    and the game of soccer I love...
[00:35] Tsu
    In order to connect these
    gleaming days to the future...
[00:39] Tsu
    we are going to win here today!
[02:13] all
    Cheers!
[02:15] Usui
    Good job, everyone.
[02:16] Har
    Good job.
[02:17] Hai
    So good!
[02:18] Usui
    It's been a while since we all had soda.
[02:21] Fuj
    Where are the others?
[02:22] tsu
    They'll probably show up soon.
[02:24] Har
    These are the bomb.
[02:25] Har
    You had them before?
[02:28] Har
    Who's that?
[02:29] Guy
    Mizuki. It's definitely Mizuki.
[02:31] Guy
    You're late, asshole!
[02:36] Guy
    Huh?
[02:37] Guy
    Ah, I'm sorry!
[02:38] Miz
    It's fine.
[02:39] Miz
    I'm not injured.
[02:40] Hai
    Your nose is bleeding...
[02:41] Miz
    Glad to see you on this auspicious day.
[02:42] Hai
    What the hell are you wearing?
[02:45] Miz
    I heard there was a party.
[02:46] Hai
    Are you serious?
[02:48] Miz
    Huh? There's no party?
[02:49] Usui
    It's fine.
[02:53] Guy
    Mizuki's rocking that look.
[02:55] guy
    You said it.
[02:57] Ritsu
    How's your leg?
[02:59] Miz
    I can't even remember which one I injured.
[03:02] Ritsu
    Sounds just like you.
[03:03] Ritsu
    Anyway, good job.
[03:06] Ritsu
    At this point, your leg injury's
     a running joke, isn't it?
[03:09] Miz
    Is it? A lot of people were
    pissed at me for a while.
[03:15] Ritsu
    So we lost, huh?
[03:21] Miz
    Yeah. We lost.
[03:25] Guy
    Mizuki!
[03:25] Guy
    Kasahara!
[03:27] Guy
    What are you doing out there, being all emo?!
SIGN    I Won't Let Anyone Be
    Disappointed Again
[03:39] Miz
    I'll walk you to the station.
[03:42] Kasa
    I was trying to sneak away quietly.
[03:46] Kasa
    Tsukamoto's shot cannoned
    back off the post.
[03:50] Kasa
    It was so close.
[03:52] Kasa
    It wasn't his fault at all.
[03:54] Miz
    I know.
[03:56] Miz
    We lost because we couldn't
    power home the rebound.
[03:59] Ann
    A train is now approaching
    platform number two.
[04:03] Ann
    It will be stopping at every station
    between here and Shinjuku.
[04:05] Miz
    Are you going to keep playing soccer?
[04:07] Ann
    Please stand behind the yellow line.
[04:08] Kasa
    Yeah, I'll keep playing.
[04:09] Kasa
    On grass, or on whatever surface.
[04:11] Kasa
    But I'll probably never play it
    competitively again.
[04:25] Miz
    You reckon you could have finished that?
[04:28] Kasa
    Who knows? I don't.
[04:36] Kasa
    No, actually... I would have scored it, 100%.
[04:42] Kasa
    We practiced shooting
    enough to make sure of it.
[04:45] Kasa
    Don't you think?
[04:48] Miz
    You're right.
[04:49] Kasa
    But I might not have had the legs to
    even get myself into that situation.
[04:55] Kasa
    We only got that chance
    because Tsukamoto carved it out.
[05:00] Kasa
    Anyway, bye.
[05:02] niz
    Yeah...
[05:06] kas
    Don't worry about me.
    Take care of Tsukamoto and Kazama.
[05:10] kas
    They're the jewels in Seiseki's crown.
[05:12] Miz
    Yeah.
[05:14] Miz
    Kasahara...
[05:18] Miz
    No, never mind.
[05:21] Kasa
    All right.
[05:37] Kasa
    "Never mind..." huh?
[05:41] Kasa
    That's just like him.
[06:17] Kasa
    Dammit...
[06:33] ---
    Seriously...
[06:35] kuru
    I knew you'd show up, Kazama-kun!
[06:38] Kaz
    That text was kinda out of the blue.
[06:40] Fu
    Well, this business trip to Tokyo
    was a bit last minute...
[06:42] Fu
    And these guys just wouldn't
    take "no" for an answer.
[06:45] Fu
    I asked Tsukamoto-kun to come, too,
    but he told me he couldn't.
[06:50] Fu
    Sounded pretty down.
[06:52] Fu
    He's the shy sort, though, right?
[06:54] Fu
    Guess I was being a bother.
[06:56] Kaz
    Actually, he got his heart broken yesterday,
    and he's hit rock bottom.
[07:03] kuru
    What? Heartbroken?
[07:05] kuru
    I see.
[07:06] kuru
    Ah, youth!
[07:08] guyA
    I'm gonna cry!
[07:09] guyB
    Let's invite him again next time.
[07:11] Kaz
    Forgive me, Tsukushi...
[07:13] Guy
    Salaryman team, you're up!
[07:16] guyA
    All right, let's do this!
[07:17] guyA
    Let's do this for Tsukamoto-kun.
[07:20] guyA
    Right, Kazama-kun?
[07:21] Kaz
    Right.
[07:22] guyB
    Don't get overexcited
     and wear yourself out.
[07:24] guyB
    Happens every time.
[07:26] kaz
    Shut it.
[07:27] (Flashback) Shin
    We're almost out of time!
[07:28] (Flashback) kuru
    This is our last chance!
[07:31] (Flashback) Kasa
    Kazama drew them away!
[07:33] (Flashback) kuru
    He's totally free!
[07:38] (Flashback) Both
    Go!
[07:46] (Flashback) Miz
    No!
[07:47] (Flashback) kim
    It's not over!
[07:48] (Flashback) kim
    If we get the rebound...
[08:07] (Flashback) Naru
    Kaoru, we did it!
[08:10] (Flashback) Kao
    Yeah, we did, Shuuji!
[08:55] kuru
    What's up with you today?
[08:56] kuru
    You're kinda scary.
[08:58] Kaz
    I-I'm sorry...
[09:00] kuru
    So that's what happened in yesterday's game.
[09:03] kuru
    My bad. I shouldn't have invited you.
[09:05] Kaz
    No, this was a good change of pace.
[09:08] Kaz
    I'm glad you did.
[09:09] kuru
    That's good, I guess.
[09:12] Kaz
    I don't really understand it myself, though.
[09:17] Kaz
    I wonder what this feeling is.
[09:19] Kaz
    I feel like I can't calm down or something.
[09:22] Kaz
    Oh, I've lost plenty of games in the past.
[09:25] Kaz
    But this doesn't feel like those other times.
[09:27] Kaz
    Like, I'm still irritated,
    or I just can't settle...
[09:30] Kaz
    Ugh, I can't put it into words.
[09:33] Kaz
    This has never happened before.
    It's a nasty feeling.
[09:38] Kaz
    What's so funny?
[09:40] kuru
    That's exactly how I felt when
     my promotion got delayed
[09:43] kuru
    because I failed to close a deal.
[09:45] Kaz
    Huh?
[09:47] kuru
    That's how you feel when you get
    really frustrated about something.
[09:51] kuru
    It's good that you got
    into Seiseki, Kazama-kun.
[09:58] (Flashback) Tsu
    The Seiseki soccer team...
[10:01] (Flashback) Tsu
    ...is the first place I've ever wanted to be.
[10:34] Tsu
    Why... are you here?
[10:43] Ubu

[11:08] (Flashback) Tsu
    The Seiseki soccer team is the
    first place I've ever wanted to be.
[11:20] (Flashback) kuru
    You finally found a place where you belong.
[11:24] Kaz
    I see.
[11:26] Kaz
    I never saw it like that before.
[11:31] (Flashback) Coa
    Kazama!
[11:34] (Flashback) Coa
    How many times do I have to tell you?
[11:35] (Flashback) Coa
    Keep your ego on a leash!
[11:36] (Flashback) Coa
    You never think about the team!
[11:40] (Flashback) Kid1
    Pass already...
[11:42] (Flashback) Kid2
    What a show-off.
[11:46] Kaz
    I've lost with other teams, but defeat
    has never felt like this before.
[11:51] (Flashback) Miz
    Kazama, you can feel it
    pulsing today, can't you?
[11:55] Kaz
    Nothing that comes out of the
    captain's mouth ever makes sense.
[11:57] (Flashback) Kimi
    Go get us some ice cream.
[11:58] (Flashback) Oos
    I'm the hero!
[12:00] (Flashback) guy
    Outer laps!
[12:01] Kaz
    The upperclassmen do whatever they want.
[12:04] (Flashback) kuru
    Last one to finish their laps
    around the fence buys the ramen!
[12:06] (Flashback) Shiro
    I'm getting extra noodles!
[12:07] (Flashback) Shin
    Miso and butter for me!
[12:08] (Flashback) Tsu
    Please no!
[12:09] Kaz
    All the guys my age are real idiots.
[12:11] Kaz
    It's a strange team, that's for sure.
[12:15] Kaz
    But they still accept me as I am.
[12:32] Kaz
    Come on. I was sure a certain
    someone would be out here, training.
[12:54] Ubu
    Tsukamoto.
[12:55] Tsu
    Yes?
[12:55] Ubu
    You're not sleeping properly, are you?
[12:58] Tsu
    N-No. How did you know?
[13:00] Tsu
    That's amazing.
[13:02] Ubu
    Anybody could tell from those
    huge bags under your eyes.
[13:06] Tsu
    Y-You're right...
[13:08] Tsu
    You're absolutely right.
[13:10] Tsu
    Are they really that bad?
[13:14] Tsu
    I guess... yeah, they do look pretty bad...
[13:15] Ubu
    His eyes aren't puffy, though.
[13:18] Ubu
    I see.
[13:20] Ubu
    So he hasn't been able to cry...
[13:22] Tsu
    But this is all...
[13:24] Ubu
    When you sleep...
[13:24] Tsu
    Huh?
[13:25] Ubu
    When you sleep, you can't
    avoid having nightmares.
[13:28] Ubu
    And even when you're awake,
    you're still replaying it.
[13:31] Ubu
    That's why you started running
    straight after the game yesterday,
[13:34] Ubu
    not even stopping to eat or anything.
[13:39] Ubu
    You feel like the nightmares will
    catch up to you if you stand still.
[13:44] Tsu
    Ubukata-san, how did you know?
[13:51] Ubu
    Because I had a similar experience once.
[13:56] Tsu
    Oh, you played soccer, too?
[13:58] Ubu
    As if I would!
[13:59] Tsu
    Ouch!
[14:01] Ubu
    I had a dream, too.
[14:06] Ubu
    I wanted to become a writer.
[14:08] Ubu
    From fifth grade through to the
    second year of middle school.
[14:12] Ubu
    I did all the right things,
    writing nonstop, day and night.
[14:15] Ubu
    Writing so much that even I got sick of it.
[14:19] Ubu
    I kept submitting my stuff to contests
    in newspapers and magazines.
[14:24] Ubu
    Kept submitting and failing...
[14:29] Ubu
    But strangely, if I cried myself to sleep,
    the next day, I found the strength to go on.
[14:37] Ubu
    But by the fourth winter,
    the tears would not come.
[14:41] Ubu
    My heart didn't want to accept it,
    but my body already knew.
[14:46] Ubu
    I was going to give up.
[14:51] Tsu
    Um... Ubukata-san?
[14:58] Ubu
    You're not the only one who's
    been through something like this.
[15:09] Kaz
    Man, this clubhouse is a pig sty.
[15:14] Kaz
    The first-years really need to tidy it up.
[15:16] Kaz
    Jeez, they didn't even
    wipe off yesterday's tactics.
[15:21] Kaz
    Sheesh, guess I'll do it myself.
[15:30] Kaz
    Who's the buffoon who used
     a permanent marker?!
[15:33] Kaz
    I don't believe it.
[15:34] Kaz
    It won't wipe off.
[15:36] Kaz
    Go away, you bastard.
[15:38] Kaz
    I've never felt like this before!
[15:42] Kaz
    Go away!
[15:43] Kaz
    Damn you!
[15:45] Kaz
    Go away, already!
[15:48] Kaz
    Go away!
SIGN    Defeat Saku High!!
[16:06] kaz
    This really was the first time...
[16:09] kaz
    that I wanted to win so badly
    with my teammates...
[16:13] kaz
    that I liked being in the team I was in...
[16:17] kaz
    and yet... I was unable...
[16:25] kaz
    to make my team win.
[16:31] Ubu
    If it hurts, why don't you be
     honest with yourself and cry?
[16:40] Tsu
    Because I don't have the right to cry.
[16:44] Tsu
    After the game was over,
    on the way back to the locker room,
[16:49] Tsu
    all the guys patted me
    on the shoulder, saying:
[16:53] Tsu
    "Don't worry about it, you did great."
[17:06] Tsu
    But Kimishita-senpai's
    shoulders were shaking.
[17:11] Tsu
    Usui-senpai was gritting his teeth.
[17:14] Tsu
    Haibara-senpai was sobbing out loud.
[17:19] Tsu
    All their backs were screaming
    "I can go on" and "I can still fight."
[17:27] Tsu
    I'm the one who denied them the chance.
[17:34] (Flashback) Kas
    Don't cry, Tsukamoto.
[17:37] (Flashback) Tsu
    I'm sorry.
[17:38] (Flashback) Kas
    I honestly think it was
    a good move to pick you.
[17:43] (Flashback) Kas
    Hold your head high, Tsukamoto!
[17:45] (Flashback) Kas
    You now represent all the players
    who didn't get chosen.
[17:49] Tsu
    I cannot cry.
[17:51] Tsu
    It's all my fault.
[17:54] Tsu
    I need to practice more,
    to get better and better,
[17:58] Tsu
    until I can properly
    apologize to everyone.
[18:05] Ubu
    Don't kid yourself.
[18:08] Ubu
    Why are you trying to act tough
    when you're so unconvincing?
[18:10] Ubu
    This isn't like you.
[18:14] Tsu
    But I have to shoulder
    the responsibility of us losing!
[18:17] Tsu
    That's why I don't deserve
    to cry with everyone else—
[18:22] Ubu
    That's something a smart person would say!
[18:24] Ubu
    Something I would do!
[18:26] Ubu
    It's a terribly boring and
    conventional way of thinking!
[18:29] Ubu
    I'm telling you, that's not like you at all!
[18:32] Ubu
    If it hurts, wail!
[18:33] Ubu
    If you're sad, cry!
[18:37] Ubu
    You ran hard for the team,
    but you couldn't bring them victory.
[18:42] Ubu
    That's why it hurts!
[18:43] Ubu
    That's why you're suffering!
[18:45] Ubu
    That's why you cry, and that's
    why you try again next time!
[18:48] Ubu
    That's good enough!
[18:55] Ubu
    If you truly challenge yourself to achieve
    something and give it your all,
[18:59] Ubu
    there's nothing in this
    world that can stop you.
[19:02] Ubu
    It's because people give up halfway through
    that makes them look like they've failed.
[19:07] Ubu
    Defeat, despair, failure...
    you've got to swallow it all!
[19:11] Ubu
    Everything is part of your next victory!
[19:14] Ubu
    Nothing is ever in vain!
[19:15] Ubu
    None of your efforts have been in vain!
[19:19] Tsu
    But it was my fault...
[19:24] Tsu
    we lost.
[19:27] Ubu
    It wasn't your fault.
[19:29] Ubu
    There isn't a single person who thinks that.
[19:34] Tsu
    So I... can cry?
[19:37] Ubu
    You can.
[19:38] Ubu
    You gave everything you had.
[19:41] Ubu
    I'm telling you this as the person
    who usually takes you to task.
[19:45] Ubu
    Don't doubt me.
[19:50] Kaz
    Don't sweat it. Just run...
[19:52] Tsu
    It hurt so much...
[19:53] kur
    You punks lost to this guy.
[19:54] Kasa
    Let's bring the heat.
[19:56] Tsu
    I wanted to win...
[19:57] Miz
    Always hold your head up high.
[19:59] Kimi
    I said go back.
[20:00] tsu
    I...
[20:00] kim
    We'll get the ball over to where
    your voice can reach us in no time.
[20:03] Tsu
    I...
[20:03] Oos
    I'm counting on you...
[20:07] Miz
    You did good, Tsukamoto.
[21:12] Miz
    You're the last one.
[21:13] Miz
    I swear, Kasahara...
[21:22] Miz
    I won't let anyone be disappointed again.
[23:03] Ubu
    Great. Now he's asleep...
[23:04] Ubu
    What are you, five?
[23:06] Ubu
    He really didn't get any sleep, huh?
[23:10] Ubu
    I don't like it, but it's not like
    I can do anything about it.
[23:16] kuru
    What the hell are they doing?!
[23:18] Shin
    I have no idea!
[23:19] kuru
    I came down here because I was worried,
    and now I see they've hooked up?!
[23:24] Ubu
    Nitobe will get a single blow
    to the solar plexus.
[23:30] Ubu
    Shiratori will get a triple kick.
[23:34] Ubu
    Kurusu will get a German Suplex.
[23:38] Ubu
    Shouldn't take more than five minutes.
[23:40] kuru
    Wh-What's with her aura?
[23:42] Shin
    We saw something we shouldn't have.
[23:44] kuru
    Shouldn't we hotfoot it outta here?
SIGN    You Just Need to Look Forward
[23:50] Voice
    Tsuku-chan, when do you want
    to do this summer barbecue?
[23:53] Tsu
    Let's see... We've got a
    training camp this week...
[23:56] Tsu
    Next week, we've got practice every day...
[23:59] Tsu
    And after that...
[24:00] Voice
    So you don't have a free day
    for the next 40 days?!
[24:03] Tsu
    You're right!
