[00:05] Guy
    Seiseki's strong!
[00:07] Guy2
    Who is that guy?
[00:09] Guy3
    That Number 9!
[00:10] Guy3
    That first-year is incredible.
[00:11] Guy3
    He didn't play in the final middle school
    tournament last year, though...
[00:16] Guy3
    I see...
[00:17] Guy3
    So he went to Seiseki...
SIGN    I Wish I Could Repay My Debt, if but a Little
[01:52] Guy
    The Number 9!
[01:53] Guy
    Stop the Number 9!
[01:55] Guy
    Hey, come on!
[01:56] Guy
    Don't let him get past you so easily!
[02:00] Tsu
    You did it!
[02:02] Tsu
    Nice goal!
[02:03] hai
    Not bad!
[02:06] Coach
    He was a lone wolf in middle school,
[02:08] Coach
    but it looks like we've managed
    to integrate him into our team.
[02:11] Tsu
    Kazama-kun!
[02:15] Kaz
    I can play soccer like this again.
[02:19] Kaz
    This is all I need.
[02:21] Kaz
    I don't need anything else.
[02:23] Kaz
    Soccer is just so damn fun!
[02:31] Usu
    Right. Line up, everyone.
[02:34] ---
    Gotcha.
[02:40] Tsu
    Congratulations, Seiseki!
[02:44] Kaz
    You're part of Seiseki too, you know...
[02:47] Coach
    Vacate the bench at once.
[02:48] Coach
    The next match is about to start.
[02:50] All
    Yes, sir.
[02:51] Ubu
    Hurry it up.
[02:52] Tsu
    Yes, ma'am!
[03:01] Tsu
    I mean, it was always going to happen,
    but I didn't get to play today, either...
[03:08] Coach
    Good job.
[03:10] Coach
    I want you to make tomorrow a full rest day.
[03:12] Coach
    Give your bodies the day off.
[03:13] All
    Yes!
[03:15] Guy
    This is the first day off I've had
    since I joined the team!
[03:18] Guy
    Let's go out!
[03:19] Guy
    Karaoke! Bowling!
[03:20] ---
    I wanna sleep...
[03:21] Kaz
    What are you going to do?
[03:23] Tsu
    Uh...
[03:23] Kaz
    I wanted to go buy some new cleats.
[03:25] Kaz
    You could come with, if you're free.
[03:27] Tsu
    Thank you for the offer,
[03:28] Tsu
    but I already have something lined
    up for tomorrow. I'm really sorry.
[03:31] Kaz
    Yeah, I guessed you would.
[03:33] Kaz
    Oh well, it is what it is.
[03:41] Kaz
    Hey!
[03:41] Kaz
    Don't tell me you blew me off
    to do laps around the fence!
[03:45] Kaz
    What?
[03:46] Kaz
    Are you training for a marathon?
[03:49] Tsu
    No.
[03:50] Tsu
    But I know... that I'm
    still not strong enough.
[03:55] Kaz
    Dude!
[03:57] Kaz
    Don't overdo it.
[04:01] Kaz
    This isn't a war.
[04:04] Kaz
    Should I tell him that having fun
     is the most important part?
[04:13] kaz
    He's still running...
[04:16] kaz
    Hey, Tsukushi!
[04:18] kaz
    I think you're overdoing it.
[04:20] kaz
    Cooling down is an important part
    of improving your stamina, too.
[04:23] kaz
    If you don't allow yourself to take
    a breather, you won't last long.
[04:26] kaz
    Take it a bit easier.
[04:28] Tsu
    No, no, no!
[04:30] Tsu
    I can't afford to.
[04:33] Kaz
    You do realize you're at this
    school for three years, right?
[04:35] Tsu
    Yes! And those three years are
    gonna pass by in the blink of an eye!
[04:38] Tsu
    Just like in middle school.
[04:39] Tsu
    One day, I sat down at my desk,
     and then poof!
[04:42] Tsu
    It was over.
[04:44] Tsu
    I didn't join any clubs,
     and I didn't have any friends.
[04:49] Kaz
    That's an oddly convincing argument...
[04:52] Tsu
    So I'm going to run a little more.
[04:54] Kaz
    Wait! Stop.
[04:56] Kaz
    You're going to destroy your body.
[04:58] Kaz
    Listen up.
[04:59] Kaz
    If you really want to get better,
    you need to enjoy playing soccer mo—
[05:02] Tsu
    No.
[05:03] Tsu
    I already have lots of fun when I play.
[05:05] Kaz
    So what's the issue?
[05:07] Tsu
    Soccer... is the most fun... ever.
[05:11] Kaz
    See?
[05:12] Kaz
    That's why—
[05:13] Tsu
    That's exactly why!
[05:16] ---
    That's exactly why I have to...
[05:20] Tsu
    If I don't hold on tight,
    it'll be gone in an instant.
[05:26] Tsu
    The Seiseki soccer team is the
    first place I've ever wanted to be.
[05:37] Tsu
    I'm not like you.
[05:40] Tsu
    I'm not the kind of guy
    people want around.
[05:44] Tsu
    I could call it quits tomorrow,
    and the team would carry on just fine.
[05:49] Tsu
    I'm already barely hanging in there,
[05:52] Tsu
    so I've got to give it everything I've got.
[05:56] Tsu
    I don't have any other options!
[06:03] Kaz
    That's right... He's right.
[06:07] Kaz
    As long as you're alive...
    as long as you're running...
[06:11] Kaz
    you've got to give it everything you have,
    or you'll have nothing left.
[06:21] Kaz
    I allowed myself to be satisfied with
    just having fun in the moment.
[06:25] Kaz
    But if you don't hold on to what you have,
    everything will be gone in an instant.
[06:34] Kaz
    Damn.
[06:35] Kaz
    I almost did it again.
[06:38] Kaz
    Tsukushi understands it
    so much better than I do.
[06:43] Tsu
    What's wrong?
[06:54] Kaz
    Mind if I run with you?
[06:56] Tsu
    Huh? Of course not!
[07:11] Kaz
    If things keep slipping through your fingers,
    try as you might to grab them,
[07:14] Kaz
    all you have to do is
    keep on grasping for them.
[07:17] Kaz
    I won't lose, Tsukushi!
[07:20] Kaz
    Not to you! Not to anyone!
[07:31] Tsu
    Kazama-kun!
[07:32] Kaz
    Ouch!
[07:33] Kaz
    What the hell...
[07:35] Kaz
    I just ran into something rock hard.
[07:38] Kaz
    Was it a utility pole or what?
[07:43] Tsu
    Um... it was Ubukata-san.
[07:49] Ubu
    You were instructed to use
    today as a rest day!
[07:52] Ubu
    What the hell is wrong with you?
[07:53] Ubu
    You're both idiots!
[07:54] Ubu
    Can't you just engage your
    brains for one second?
[07:57] Ubu
    Chill out already!
[07:59] Ubu
    Read the Buddha's teachings!
[08:05] Coach
    This is the semi-final.
[08:07] Coach
    I want you guys to just go out there
    and play your natural game.
[08:11] Coach
    Don't let your spirits drop.
[08:13] Coach
    Every single player in this room
    is here to help us win.
[08:15] Coach
    That is all.
[08:15] ---
    Yeah!
[08:17] Ubu
    Sir! Tsukamoron's still in the bathroom.
[08:23] Kai
    Do we have to redo the huddle?
[08:25] Shir
    That'd be bad form.
[08:27] Tsu
    That was close.
[08:42] Sei
    I'm taller.
[08:44] Tsu
    You're standing on your tiptoes.
[08:46] Sei
    You're Seiseki's Number 17.
[08:50] Sei
    Kaoru's told me all about you.
[08:53] Tsu
    I don't know a girl by that name...
[08:55] Sei
    He said you guys played futsal together.
[08:58] Tsu
    Oh, you mean Indou-san?
[09:03] Tsu
    So you're his younger brother?
[09:05] Tsu
    Your older brother helped me out so much.
[09:09] Sei
    It's all about goals.
[09:13] Sei
    If you're a forward, score goals
     and be an asset to your team.
[09:21] Tsu
    Goals...
[09:23] Mizu
    Tsukamoto.
[09:25] Mizu
    You missed the huddle.
[09:27] Tsu
    I'm really sorry!
[09:29] Coach
    Mizuki.
[09:30] Coach
    I didn't get to ask you earlier:
    how's your leg doing?
[09:34] Mizu
    It's never been better.
[09:36] Coach
    I see. So it still hasn't healed.
[09:39] Coach
    We'll have to keep you
    benched till the final.
[09:46] Tsu
    E-Excuse me... your leg seems to be shaking.
[09:49] Miz
    Shut up.
[09:50] Tsu
    I'm sorry!
[09:54] Tsu
    Seiseki!
SIGN    Ariake
[09:56] Blue
    Ariake! Ariake!
[09:59] Crowd
    Seiseki! Seiseki!
[10:04] Tsu
    The semi-final stage is
    another level, isn't it?
[10:06] Tsu
    This is amazing!
[10:12] Ima
    It's Saku High.
[10:18] Sei
    I guess we'll be playing
    today's victor in the final.
[10:21] Kao
    We're not in the final yet.
[10:24] Kao
    The point of this game is to see if
    Ariake can handle Seiseki's offense.
[10:36] Guys
    It's Kazama!
[10:37] Guys
    That guy's amazing!
[10:38] Guys
    I can't wait to see what he does today!
[10:40] Guy2
    Tch. Don't get ahead of yourself.
[10:46] Guy
    Kazama!
[10:49] Tsu
    Kazama-kun!
[10:50] Guy
    That was bad.
[10:51] Guy
    These guys are brutal.
[10:53] Guy
    Was that on purpose?
[10:55] Blue
    Sorry, bro.
[10:56] Ima
    Are you okay?
[10:58] Kaz
    I'm fine.
[11:04] Kur
    Hey!
[11:05] Ima
    That's a yellow card right there!
[11:12] Sei
    These guys take no prisoners.
[11:14] Kao
    It was always on the cards.
[11:22] usu
    The second half is going
    to be more of the same.
[11:24] usu
    Watch out, guys.
[11:26] usu
    Getting injured is the worst
    thing that can happen.
[11:29] ---
    Gotcha.
[11:39] Num11
    I'm gonna destroy you, Kazama.
[11:44] Ubu
    They're really targeting him.
[11:47] Coach
    His performance last game
    caught their attention.
[11:55] Coach
    Tsukamoto!
[11:56] Tsu
    Yes, sir!
[11:57] Coach
    You're up.

[13:23] Naru
    He sure runs a lot.
[13:27] Kaz
    Nice moves. Keep it up.
[13:32] Kaz
    You're leading the Ariake guys
    a merry dance.

    Please don't.
[15:39] Tsu
    Please don't sub me out.
[15:41] Ari10
    Just get off the field already.
[15:44] Ari10
    You get subbed in, then subbed out.
    What's that all about?
[15:48] Ari10
    You're total dead weight.
[15:52] Ari10
    What the hell are you
    doing out here, anyway?
[15:54] Ari10
    Right, guys?
[15:59] Tsu
    Damn it!
[16:01] Tsu
    Why do I suck so hard?
[16:04] Tsu
    If only I was stronger...
[16:09] Miz
    You did good, Tsukamoto.
[16:14] Tsu
    Captain...
[16:17] Miz
    Now, leave it up to me.
[16:23] Tsu
    I'm so sorry.
[16:29] Miz
    So you think you can make
    a mockery of our players?
[16:35] Crowd
    Mizuki?
[16:36] Crowd
    He's going on?
[16:37] Crowd
    Isn't he injured?
[16:43] Miz
    I'll wrap this up within five minutes.
[16:44] Ref
    Number 17 is off. Number 7 replaces him.
[16:48] Tsu
    Our captain was supposed to rest up and
    recover in time for tomorrow's final.
[16:54] Tsu
    I'm sorry.
[16:56] Coach
    Mizuki!
[16:57] Coach
    Don't overdo it!
[17:01] Miz
    Roger moger.
[17:03] Coach
    Yeah, I wonder about that, somehow.
[17:05] Ubu
    He's always saying weird stuff, isn't he?
[17:09] Crowd
    Mizuki's going on.
[17:11] Crowd
    There's only seven minutes left.
[17:13] Miz
    Don't stand out anymore today.
[17:15] Kaz
    Roger.
[17:17] Miz
    Make today's passes go "shhhhhoom."
[17:18] Kimi
    Dude, I still don't know what you mean!
[17:20] Kur
    Man, he really looks the business
    in the captain's armband.
[17:24] shir
    This is the first time
    I get to see him play.
[17:27] Ritsu
    Keep a close eye on him.
[17:30] Miz
    All right. Let's turn this into
    a memorial match for Tsukamoto!
[17:33] Both
    Um, he's not dead...
[17:35] Ari10
    Sorry to butt in on your pep talk,
    but it really is a shame for you.
[17:40] Ari10
    I mean, you're not even going to
    get to touch the ball this game.
[17:43] Miz
    Why not?
[17:44] Ari10
    You're asking me why not?
[17:46] Ari10
    Are you a total idiot?
[17:48] Crowd
    They've got three guys on Mizuki?
[17:50] Crowd
    What the hell?
[17:52] Coach
    So Ariake's gunning for a penalty shootout...
[17:56] Ubu
    Are you okay?
[17:59] Coach
    They're going to do everything they can
    to keep Mizuki away from the ball.
[18:02] Tsu
    No way.
[18:04] Tsu
    That's so unfair.
[18:10] ari10
    We're going to stick to you until this
    match is over, even if it kills us.
[18:14] Miz
    I see.
[18:15] Miz
    So that's how it is.
[18:21] ari10
    He's going away from the goal.
[18:22] ari10
    What the hell is he plotting?
[18:26] ari18
    Crap!
[18:32] ari10
    I get it.
[18:33] ari10
    If he can't play, he's making sure the
    three of us are out of the game, too.
[18:42] ari10
    You're out of time, though.
[18:45] Miz
    My grandpa died last year,
    and he hated soccer with a passion.
[18:49] Miz
    Because it shared a time slot
    with sumo wrestling.
[18:52] Miz
    But he still always took me to
    the station when I had practice.
[18:57] Miz
    I could never go to him and complain about
    how hard the sessions were, though.
[19:00] ari4
    You think we care, idiot?
[19:02] ari3
    Yeah, spare us, please.
[19:06] Miz
    So... let me ask you a question...
[19:11] Miz
    Do you honestly think three
    of you is enough to stop me?
[19:15] ari4
    What?
[19:20] Aki10
    After him!
[19:20] Aki10
    Don't let him get away!
[19:24] Kao
    Two years ago, he was a total nobody.
[19:29] Kao
    He became known for his absurd industry,
    and his devotion to soccer.
[19:41] ari5
    Is this guy a bulldozer or what?!
[19:46] ariG
    Up in front!
[19:47] ariG
    Surround him!
[19:48] ariG
    He's centering the ball!
[19:51] ari
    Mizuki's a decoy!
[19:53] ari
    Kazama's here!
[19:53] ari
    Come on, goalie!
[19:58] ari
    Oh no.
[20:00] ari18
    Mizuki's flying!
[20:03] Crowd
    What the hell is this?
[20:05] Miz
    Huh?
[20:06] Miz
    The ball's a little low.
[20:16] Kaz
    Wow.
[20:28] Kao
    And that's this century's monster,
    created by Seiseki's team: Mizuki Hisahito.
[20:35] Dai
    Did you see that, Tsukamoto?
[20:37] Dai
    That's our captain. Seiseki's captain.
[20:42] Miz
    Two more minutes.
[20:43] Miz
    We're getting another goal!
[20:45] Kao
    He evades with his speed,
    escapes using his strength,
[20:47] Kao
    and seals the deal with his height.
[20:51] Kao
    That's something you can't do unless
    you're ridiculously fit like him.
[20:59] Ari10
    Dammit.
[21:01] Ari10
    We didn't lose to Seiseki.
[21:04] Ari10
    Only to you, Mizuki.
[21:06] Ari10
    If it wasn't for you...
[21:08] Miz
    Your legs were lead.
[21:09] Ari10
    Huh?
[21:10] Miz
    All because some half-pint was giving
    your whole team the runaround.
[21:16] Miz
    As the final whistle approached,
    your team's legs had gone.
[21:22] Miz
    Hold your head up high, Tsukamoto.
[21:24] Miz
    The players on the Seiseki soccer team
    always walk with their heads held high.
[21:32] Tsu
    Captain!
[21:35] Coach
    The next game is about to start!
[21:37] Coach
    Hurry up and get out of here.
[21:39] Tsu
    Yes, sir!
[21:44] Tsu
    Huh?
[21:46] Tsu
    It's the guy I met in the bathroom.
[21:48] Tsu
    Excuse me...
[21:50] Tsu
    This area is off-limits to spectators.
[21:53] Kaz
    Short stuff over there is
    Saku High's Number 10.
[21:59] Kaz
    He scares me even more
    than Indou Kaoru does.
[22:05] Kaz
    Narukami Shuuji.
[22:07] Kaz
    He's Saku High's top scorer.
[22:10] Tsu
    That person is Saku High's top scorer?
SIGN    If He Gets into it, He Will Become a Bullet
[23:51] Mom
    He got mistaken for a girl all
    the time when he was a baby.
[23:55] Mom
    I see.
[23:57] Mom
    So this is how young men get stronger.
[24:02] Mom
    This kinda makes me happy.
