[00:00] ish
    He's dribbling all the way?
[00:04] Shiro
    Kimishita-senpai's dribbling?
[00:06] Voice
    Man on!
[00:08] kim
    I'll pass this time!
[00:12] Guy
    A nutmeg?!
[00:14] Guy2
    He got past two of them!
[00:15] oos
    That idiot.
[00:18] oos
    Nowadays, they say he's calm and collected.
[00:23] oos
    But he's always been the type
    who hungered to score a goal.
[00:34] Guy2
    He stopped him.
[00:38] Guy2
    Keiou stopped him!
[00:41] Guy2
    That was an amazing exchange,
    right out of the gate!
[00:44] Guy3
    Kimishita's something else.
[00:45] Guy2
    Kai stopping him at that
    speed was jaw-dropping, too.
[00:49] Kai
    It's good to see you haven't gotten
    all subservient since joining Seiseki.
[00:54] Kai
    You've always been the type
    to attack on your own.
[00:59] Kai
    The bad boy they call Kimishita Atsushi.
[01:04] kai
    Huh?
[01:05] kai
    The ball's gone!
[01:06] Maru
    Kai, behind you!
[01:13] Kai
    Number 17?
[01:19] Kai
    Who on earth is this guy?
[01:22] Kur
    Tsukamoto, you idiot!
[01:23] Kur
    He's coming for you!
[01:25] Tsu
    K-Kimishita-senpai!
[01:30] Kimi
    We don't just have three arrows.
[01:34] Kimi
    Don't underestimate Seiseki.
SIGN    Isn't Soccer a Blast?
[03:12] Kur
    Kimishita-senpai...
[03:14] Kur
    Th-That's right...
[03:18] nit
    We've got to keep up with him!
[03:25] Spec
    Kimishita's broken through!
[03:27] Spec
    Number 17's running straight at goal!
[03:29] Kur
    C-Call for it...
[03:33] Kur
    H—
[03:34] Kur
    Here!
[03:39] Spec
    A cross-field ball!
[03:40] Spec
    He picked out the Number 8!
[03:41] Shiro
    Hayase-senpai!
[03:45] Maru
    Stop their Number 8!
[03:47] Guy
    Box him in!
[03:54] Shiro
    Hayase-senpai?
[03:56] Kaz
    Haya-chan's going hard.
[03:58] ---
    Gah!
[04:00] Spec
    They've cornered the Number 8
    on that touchline.
[04:02] Spec
    He can't get a pass away.
[04:04] Spec
    Now what?
[04:05] Guy
    Senpai!
[04:06] usu
    Pass it back!
[04:10] Haya
    I'm well aware...
[04:11] Haya
    that there's no way I can replace Mizuki.
[04:14] Haya
    But, since I'm here,
    occupying this position for Seiseki,
[04:18] Haya
    I can't play halfheartedly, either!
[04:23] Miz
    Go, Hayase.
[04:26] Miz
    You're the fastest left-footed
    dribbler on our team.
[04:31] Spec
    He shook off one of them!
[04:32] Maru
    Watch out in the center!
[04:33] kai
    He's coming!
[04:37] Spec
    He dodged another one!
[04:43] Kishi
    Nice interception, Hosomi!
[04:45] Kai
    I've got it!
[04:48] Kai
    Huh?
[04:49] Kai
    It wasn't just a coincidence earlier?
[04:52] Shiro
    He got it back!
[04:52] Spec
    Nice!
[04:53] Shiro
    Good job, Tsukamoto!
[04:55] Tsu
    All right!
[04:56] Yama
    Dammit...
[05:05] Kai
    Oh, come on!
[05:07] Hai
    Yes!
[05:08] spec
    A foul!
[05:08] Spec
    Seiseki's won a free kick.
[05:10] Spec
    Right in front of goal!
[05:11] Spec2
    Just outside the penalty area!
[05:16] Tsu
    This feeling... There's no mistaking it...
[05:21] Usui
    Tsukamoto.
[05:23] Usui
    I've noticed that your plays
    in the second ball phase...
[05:26] Usui
    have been getting better by the day.
[05:31] Tsu
    There's no mistaking it.
[05:34] Spec
    Right off the bat!
[05:35] Spec
    This is a big chance for Seiseki!
[05:38] Spec
    Slap bang in front of goal,
    slightly right of center.
[05:40] Spec
    The best possible spot for a free kick.
[05:42] Spec2
    Two lining it up, huh?
[05:44] Spec
    Who's going to take it?
[05:45] Spec
    If they want right curl, it'll be Kimishita.
[05:46] Spec
    If they want left curl, it'll be Number 8.
[05:48] Spec2
    From that angle, it looks
    like they'll go left corner.
[05:51] oos
    As if he'd let anyone else take it...
[05:54] oos
    He's under the mistaken
    impression that he's the greatest.
[05:58] Kimi
    Senpai.
[06:02] Shind
    I'll do it.
[06:03] Tsu
    H-Huh?
[06:04] Kur
    I won't lose.
[06:05] Tsu
    What?
[06:06] Kimi
    Kurusu. Tsukamoto.
[06:07] Kimi
    Come here.
[06:08] Both
    Okay!
[06:10] Spec
    Huh?
[06:12] Spec2
    What's this?
[06:13] Spec2
    Those two are shielding the ball.
[06:15] Spec2
    What's that supposed to do?
[06:16] Spec
    Is this some kind of trick?
[06:17] Spec
    This way, the goalie can't see the ball.
[06:20] Spec2
    Forget that, Seiseki can't
    shoot past them, either.
[06:24] Spec
    You're right.
[06:25] Spec
    Not like that, they can't.
[06:27] Spec2
    What's Seiseki up to?
[06:29] Spec2
    This must be a set routine!
[06:31] Spec
    What intrigue!
[06:32] Maru
    Watch out for daisy-cutters!
[06:34] Tou
    Y-Yeah!
[06:35] Maru
    Watch the right-hand side.
[06:36] Tou
    We're ready!
[06:38] Goalie
    How embarrassingly see-through.
[06:40] Goalie
    I'm disappointed in you, Seiseki.
[06:43] Goalie
    When the whistle blows and one
    of your players kicks the ball,
[06:46] Goalie
    those two will simply
    part to let it through.
[06:48] Goalie
    It's a ploy to hide who's shooting
    until the moment they hit it.
[06:52] Goalie
    It's nothing but a cheap trick.
[06:57] Goalie
    Don't let them fool you!
[06:58] Goalie
    Those guys will move.
[07:00] All
    Yeah!
[07:03] kur
    Kimishita-senpai, is this really a good idea?
[07:07] kur
    I... have faith in you.
[07:10] kur
    I-I-I really won't budge an inch!
[07:21] ---
    Huh?
[07:22] Kai
    Where's he aiming?
[07:40] Spec
    What the heck was that?!
[07:42] Spec2
    That curl was unbelievable!
[07:44] Spec
    The wall and the keeper didn't
    even have a chance to move!
[07:47] Spec2
    It's like it curled all the way
    back in from outside!
[07:49] Spec
    Number 10's super free kick has
    put Seiseki into the lead!
[08:04] ---
    Pah!
[08:05] Maru
    They really got us good, huh?
[08:08] Maru
    Then again, a kick like
    that is one in a hundred.
[08:12] Maru
    It's our turn to strike back now.
[08:15] Maru
    Hey, are you listening?
[08:16] Kai
    Maru, Seiseki really is amazing!
[08:20] Kai
    Have you ever seen anything like that?
[08:22] Kai
    Oh boy, I haven't been this excited in ages!
[08:29] Maru
    This guy's just too funny.
[08:32] Maru
    I do agree with him, though.
[08:39] Spec
    Can you catch up now, Keiou?
[08:41] Spec2
    That super kick might be the
    beginning of something for Seiseki!
[08:45] Usu
    Get on their Number 10!
[08:46] Usu
    Don't let him go!
[08:48] Usu
    Stay on your toes!
[08:48] Usu
    Their Number 9 is trying
    to go round the back.
[08:50] PLay1
    We're counting on you, Maru-senpai!
[08:52] Play2
    Go, Kai-san!
[08:55] Ind
    Keiougawara was the only team
    we couldn't beat this year.
[09:01] Ind
    They're tricky.
[09:04] Ind
    Especially...
[09:07] Ind
    Especially...
[09:10] Ind
    Don't ignore me!
[09:11] Ind
    It's me, Kaoru-chan!
[09:14] Miz
    What are you doing here?
[09:16] ind
    Because you won't pick up your damn phone!
[09:18] Miz
    If you're not watching the game, then leave.
[09:22] ind
    Anyway, you shouldn't underestimate them.
[09:25] ind
    Especially their Number 9.
[09:28] ind
    Maruoka. He's bad news.
[09:36] ---
    Oh...
[09:37] Usu
    I can't let you go any further.
[09:39] Maru
    I'm glad I got the chance to
     come up against you, Mr. Seiseki.
[09:44] Maru
    Usui Yuuta.
[09:47] Maru
    I'm sorry, but I'm going to
    make an example out of you.
[09:49] Maru
    If I can break you,
    Seiseki will be going down.
[09:52] ind
    Ah, there it is.
[09:53] ind
    He uses that strange move
    to throw off his opponents.
[10:01] Usu
    Right.
[10:04] Usu
    Left.
[10:05] Usu
    He's feinting.
[10:07] Usu
    Right!
[10:11] MIg
    Usui-senpai!
[10:17] Usu
    All right!
[10:18] nit
    Wow.
[10:19] Hai
    Nito, the rebound!
[10:22] Ino
    Nope.
[10:28] Nind
    Inohara-senpai!
[10:29] Shiro
    Nice save!
[10:33] Maru
    You're wrong, Kai.
[10:35] Maru
    This is how you do it.
[10:38] Maru
    The big 'uns are always slow on their feet.
[10:43] Spec
    He stopped it!
[10:44] Spec
    They still haven't drawn level!
[10:48] Ino
    "Slow on their feet"?
[10:51] Ino
    That only applies to oafs
    who are big and nothing else.
[10:56] Kur
    Huh?
[10:57] Kur
    What?
[10:57] Kur
    No. This is bad.
[11:00] ---
    A-A pinpoint pass from the keeper!
[11:02] Kur
    It... It's... It's here!
[11:02] Spec
    He's in an acre of space!
[11:05] Coach
    Kurusu! Break quickly!
[11:06] Kur
    "B-Break q-quickly"?! Quickly...
[11:10] Kur
    The defenders are already on me!
[11:12] Kur
    This can't be happening!
[11:14] Kur
    What now?
[11:15] Kur
    Ouch!
[11:16] Kur
    What do I do now?
[11:17] Kur
    They'll take the ball!
[11:20] Hai
    Kurusu!
[11:21] Hai
    You did good!
[11:23] Hai
    Give it here.
[11:24] Kur
    All right!
[11:31] Spec
    A cross to the other flank!
[11:35] Spec
    It's their Number 8!
[11:36] Spec
    They're on him!
[11:37] hay
    That... doesn't... matter!
[11:40] Spec2
    He stopped it!
[11:43] Spec
    Man, he flew.
[11:44] Spec
    No goal!
[11:45] Spec
    Good job, goalie!
[11:47] Spec
    A precision counterattack right
    after a solid defensive play!
[11:50] Spec
    From defense to break
    in the blink of an eye!
[11:53] Spec
    Even without their three arrows,
    Seiseki's third-years are amazing!
[11:59] Usui
    You guys are still green.
[12:03] MIz
    We've got history.
[12:05] MIz
    Don't lump us together
    with some weakass school.
[12:09] ind
    Your third-years are good, true.
[12:11] ind
    But I'll pass on your first-years.
[12:14] ind
    Number 14 and Number 15 are way too stiff.
[12:17] Ubu
    Step it up, first-years!
[12:19] Kaz
    Kurusu and Nitobe are letting
    the occasion get to them.
[12:23] Ubu
    Dammit.
[12:24] Kaz
    Then, there's that one guy
    who just can't read the crowd.
[12:29] Kaz
    I mean, he is Seiseki's
    King of Being Oblivious.
[12:32] Kaz
    He doesn't care about the setting.
     He just steams on ahead regardless.

[12:49] Spec
    Seiseki's on a roll.
[12:51] Spec
    Are they going to score another?
[12:52] Spec
    Kimishita's their corner taker.
[12:54] Spec
    D'you think he's got another
    trick up his sleeve?
[12:56] Spec
    Show us!
[12:58] Kei
    Mark up!
[13:00] Kei
    Focus our strength on the center!
[13:01] Kishi
    Number 3 will come at us,
    so don't give him any space.
[13:04] Kei
    Don't let them through.
[13:05] ---
    Number 2 is quick, too!
    Stick to him like glue!
[13:06] USu
    Tsukamoto.
[13:08] USu
    I feel like you're ready today.
[13:11] USu
    If you don't know what to do,
    just act in your own interests.
[13:14] USu
    I have your back, no matter what.
[13:21] Tsu
    Usui-senpai.
[13:26] ---
    Here it comes!
[13:29] Tsu
    There's no mistaking it...
[13:30] Tsu
    I figured something out
    by doing things my way.
[13:35] Tsu
    There are roughly three
    opportunities to win the ball.
[13:39] Voice
    The keeper can claim that!
[13:40] Voice2
    That's an instant counter!
[13:42] Tsu
    The first is...
[13:44] Voice
    He fumbled it!
[13:45] Tsu
    when your opponent makes a mistake.
[13:49] Voice2
    Keiou's got it!
[13:51] Goal
    It's been cleared!
[13:54] Tsu
    The second is when everyone's defending,
[13:59] Tsu
    and the opponent is completely hemmed in.
[14:02] Ubu
    Tsukamoto again?
[14:03] Kaz
    Wow.
[14:05] Kai
    I knew you'd show up.
[14:07] Kai
    Lightning won't strike twice!
[14:09] Spec
    It's Kai! He totally read that!
[14:15] Tsu
    And then, the third opportunity...
[14:17] Tsu
    I confirmed something when
    I watched that recorded game.
[14:24] Tsu
    Between the attack phase and the defense
    phase, there's this momentary pause.
[14:31] Tsu
    Relief. Pride. Complacency. Carelessness.
[14:37] Tsu
    In that one moment, everyone's legs stop.
[14:41] Tsu
    This is probably an immutable truth.
[14:45] Tsu
    If you want to snatch the ball,
    it's at the exact moment...
[14:49] Tsu
    when Seiseki loses the
    ball that you must strike.
[14:53] Usu
    Impressive.
[14:54] kai
    What?
[14:56] Ubu
    Tsukamoto has it?
[14:58] Spec
    He sunk his teeth in and got it back!
[15:00] Spec
    He's in on goal!
[15:07] (Flashback) Usu
    If you don't know what to do,
    just act in your own interests.
[15:11] Tsu
    "If I don't know what to do..."
[15:14] Tsu
    Shoot!
[15:20] Kaz
    It's in...
[15:24] Spec
    So close!
[15:25] Spec2
    The goalie got to it!
[15:31] Miz
    Nobody taught him that.
[15:34] Miz
    He arrived at that answer all by himself
    by experiencing it all firsthand.
[15:38] Shiro
    That was good! That was a great shot!
[15:41] Shiro
    Don't let it get to you, Tsukamoto!
[15:44] Kaz
    He's reaching his limit.
[15:46] All
    Huh?
[15:47] Kaz
    Tsukushi's relationship with soccer
    has a major flaw in it.
[15:51] Shiro
    He's still going!
[15:53] Shiro
    Don't say stuff like that!
[15:56] Kaz
    The reason Tsukushi was able
    to try so hard up to now...
[15:58] Kaz
    was because he wanted to be
    with all of us on the soccer team.
[16:01] Kaz
    That's why he was able to whip himself
    to keep running for the sake of others.
[16:05] Kaz
    That way, he could keep at it,
    even when he wasn't really enjoying it.
[16:10] Shiro
    Who cares what his motivations were?
[16:13] Kaz
    Sure. His initial motivation
    is totally irrelevant.
[16:18] Kaz
    That's why he's going to be
    really interesting now.
[16:23] Kaz
    Once you start to get a little better,
    it becomes incredible.
[16:27] Kaz
    Now you understand where
    I'm coming from, right?
[16:30] Kaz
    Isn't soccer a blast?
[16:34] Kur
    This guy's smiling like he's having fun!
[16:42] Spec
    Keiou cleared it!
[16:43] Spec
    It went to Maruoka!
[16:47] nit
    I'm stopping you.
[16:49] Usui
    Nitobe, wait!
[16:50] Usui
    Keep him there!
[16:51] nit
    He's only been playing half a year,
    and he's having a stormer!
[16:55] nit
    I've been playing for ten years...
    I can't allow myself to be a burden!
[17:01] Shiro
    That's it. Take it!
[17:03] Kaz
    Nope.
[17:07] Maru
    Why are you so flustered?
[17:11] Spec
    Maruoka got away from him!
[17:13] Spec2
    The goalie's the only one left to beat!
[17:15] Spec2
    Can he make it?
[17:16] nit
    Flustered?!
[17:17] nit
    Who do you think you are?!
[17:19] nit
    In terms of skill and invested time,
    I'm better than him!
[17:23] nit
    He's speeding up?!
[17:32] nit
    Did I tear my hamstring?
[17:35] nit
    This is bad...
[17:43] Tsu
    Nitobe-kun!
[17:50] Spec
    Penalty!
[17:51] Spec
    He was in the penalty area...
[17:52] Spec
    He did it.
[17:54] nit
    Oh no!
[17:56] Usui
    It was an accident. He didn't
    mean to take him out.
[18:00] Usui
    Please, wait! You can't do that.
[18:03] Ref
    Number 14: illegal charge.
[18:06] Spec2
    Seriously?!
[18:07] Spec
    A straight red?
[18:09] Spec
    He's outta there!
[18:10] nit
    This can't be happening...
[18:13] Spec
    Seiseki's lost one of their center backs!
[18:16] Spec
    Keiou got lucky and won a penalty.
[18:18] Spec
    The tide is turning.
[18:20] Spec2
    They don't have their three arrows, and
    they're down to ten men in the first half.
[18:25] Girl
    Will they be okay?
[18:27] Spec
    The headwind Seiseki's running
    into just got even stronger!
[18:30] Spec
    It was a harsh decision, but if they
    lose now, it'll be all Number 14's fault.
[18:36] ind
    A torn muscle this early on is
    down to his limited experience.
[18:41] ind
    His unnatural nervousness
    made his muscles tense up.
[18:55] Shiro
    I can't even think of anything to say to him.
[18:58] nit
    He's really amazing.
[19:00] nit
    I've gone through 65 pairs of cleats
    since I started playing soccer.
[19:06] nit
    Soccer's all I've done,
    ever since I was a little kid.
[19:09] nit
    I've practiced so much more than him.
[19:13] nit
    But it's painfully obvious that, to Keiou,
[19:17] nit
    Tsukamoto is a much bigger threat, though
    he only started playing in high school.
[19:22] nit
    What...
[19:26] nit
    What have I been doing this whole time?
[19:31] Shiro
    Did they score it?
[19:33] naki
    That noise...
[19:34] shi
    Naki!
[19:35] shi
    What's going on? Why are they cheering?
SIGN    Seiseki High School Changing Room
[19:39] shi
    Ignore the situation
    and spit it out already!
[19:42] Nak
    Well, just now...
[19:43] Spec
    Amazing!
[19:45] Spec
    This can't be real!
[19:46] Hai
    All right!
[19:48] Spec
    He kept out Maruoka!
[19:50] Spec
    A super save!
[19:52] Spec
    They survived that one!
[19:54] Spec
    And a godly clearance by Usui!
[19:57] Spec
    The two cornerstones of
    their defense saved Seiseki!
[20:00] Spec
    They'll feel the loss of
    that one player, though.
[20:03] Spec
    There's still a lot of time left.
[20:08] Shiro
    Huh? What was he trying to say?
[20:10] Usui
    Don't worry.
    We're definitely going to win this.
[20:14] nit
    Please do, Usui-senpai...
[20:16] ind
    Didn't I call it?
[20:19] ind
    Your third-years are good.
[20:20] Miz
    There are no first-years,
    second-years, or third-years.
[20:22] ind
    Huh?
[20:23] Miz
    We're all just members of
    the Seiseki soccer team.
[20:30] Spec
    Kimishita!
[20:31] Spec
    An interception in their half!
[20:38] Kimi
    I guess you're looking a
    little less useless now.
[20:42] kur
    I get how you're feeling, Nito.
[20:45] kur
    It's now or never.
[20:48] Spec
    They're sprinting through on the right!
[20:52] Kur
    Hayase-senpai's specialty is
    cutting inside from the left flank.
[20:56] Kur
    And Tsukamoto's got his weird talent
    for picking up those second balls.
[21:01] Kur
    So what's my weapon?
[21:04] Mito
    Kurusu...
[21:06] Kur
    Elegant passes like Kimishita-senpai's!
[21:18] Kur
    Phew, I got it back!
[21:20] Ubu
    Is he really that stupid?
[21:22] Coach
    Kurusu, you seem to think
    you have a talent for passing,
[21:27] Coach
    but you don't even have a fraction
    of the skill that Kimishita possesses.
[21:31] Kur
    Crap! Crap! Crap! Crap!
[21:33] Coach
    But there's something to be said about
    your disgusting ability to keep the ball.
[21:40] Spec
    He's pretty amazing.
[21:42] Spec
    How long is he going to
    keep the ball from them?
[21:44] Hai
    Good job, Kurusu!
[21:45] Hai
    Give it here!
[21:46] Kur
    Here he is!
[21:49] Hai
    We've got a great crop
    of first-years this year.
[21:53] Kai
    To the byline!
[21:55] Kai
    He's gonna center it!
[21:55] Kai
    Number 8!
[21:57] Kai
    Watch him!
[21:57] All
    Yes!
[21:59] Hai
    You, too.
[22:01] Kai
    What?
[22:02] Kai
    He passed backwards!
[22:03] Kai
    Oh no!
[22:07] Nito
    Go!
[22:08] kur
    Tsukamoto!
SIGN    Right Now, I'm Seiseki's Captain
[23:51] Usu
    Even now, I don't have any confidence.
[23:54] Usu
    Maybe I applied for the
    vice-captain role back then...
[23:59] Usu
    because I wanted to escape
    the pressure of being captain.
[24:02] Usu
    But even so...
