[00:02] Tayasu
    Yes, thank you.
[00:04] Tayasu
    We'll schedule a meeting soon.
[00:08] Tayasu
    Another owner who wants to work with us.
[00:11] Tayasu
    They saw our victory at the Yayoi Sho.
[00:13] Akari
    It won't last.
[00:15] Akari
    Don't take too many cheap
    jobs and overload us.
[00:18] Tayasu
    They say that when the wind's blowing
    your way, you should let it lead you.
[00:24] Akari
    There are people everywhere
    who want to trip us up.
[00:30] Kikumi
    A word, Mistress?
[00:32] Akari
    It's about Kisuke's right front leg, right?
[00:35] Akari
    Something feels wrong?
[00:36] Kikumi
    Yeah. Nothing feels wrong, just "off."
[00:42] Tayasu
    Should we take x-rays?
[00:44] Kikumi
    No. We don't want the press getting ideas.
[00:50] Akari
    Understood.
[00:52] Akari
    Let's see what Kazanami says tomorrow.
[01:01] Shun
    Okay, looking good!
[01:02] Shun
    Keep it up!
SIGN    Oak Nature
[01:07] Eri
    Kazanami, congrats on the Yayoi Sho.
[01:09] Shun
    Thanks. It's all thanks to Kuji.
SIGN    My teacher said you did a great job training them.
[01:18] Eri
    They didn't say a word during
    the Fukujuso Tokubetsu, though.
[01:21] Shun
    Sakuraba is harsh on Sojiro.
[01:24] Eri
    And I'm stuck in the middle. It sucks.
[01:28] Eri
    He's getting some good times, right?
[01:30] Shun
    Yeah. Maybe he knows his
    next race is his last one.
[01:33] Shun
    It's hard to keep him under control,
[01:35] Shun
    but fun.
[01:38] Eri
    I wish Amane could hear that.
[01:42] Shun
    I haven't seen him lately.
[01:44] Eri
    They won't let him on horseback
[01:47] Eri
    'cause he's being whiny
    like he always is, sheesh.
[01:54] Amane
    I'm done cleaning the stalls.
[01:57] Staff
    Okay, good.
[01:59] Amane
    When do I get to go back to training?
[02:02] Staff
    I'd love to have you back out there,
[02:04] Staff
    but it's up to how your teacher feels.
[03:45] Shun
    Feels off?
[03:47] Akari
    Yes. Kikumi says his right
    front leg feels off.
SIGN    Episode 10 The Sound of Distant Rain
[03:52] Shun
    I didn't feel a thing.
[03:55] Shun
    Kisuke, does your leg hurt?
[03:59] Shun
    He says no.
[04:00] Shun
    Kisuke's in great shape!
[04:03] Shun
    He's all set for the race...
[04:04] Shun
    Woah, woah.
[04:06] Shun
    You're in a great mood today!
[04:10] Tayasu
    What do we do?
[04:17] Akari
    We follow the plan.
[04:22] Asahi
    Hello, everyone!
[04:24] Yu
    You haven't changed a bit, instructor.
[04:27] Asahi
    Wow! You've got the same
    reaction as the Miho team.
[04:30] Eri
    I can tell how they feel.
[04:32] Shun
    Is everybody at Miho doing well?
[04:34] Asahi
    Of course.
[04:36] Asahi
    Everyone is all, "It's fine"!
[04:38] Asahi
    What about you?
[04:39] Amane
    It stopped being "It's fine"
    once I saw my teacher's face.
[04:43] Asahi
    Amane, you've still got a spicy mouth, I see.
[04:47] Asahi
    But I've got a present to get
    you out of your blue mood.
[04:54] Shun
    Who's it from?
[04:56] Amane
    A problem, that's who.
[05:04] Asahi
    By the way, Arimura.
[05:06] Asahi
    Is Mr. Kuji "It's fine"?
[05:09] Yu
    Yes. He's as fine as ever.
[05:10] Shun
    Instructor, you know Kuji?
[05:13] Asahi
    Yes!
[05:14] Asahi
    He and I were once classmates.
[05:18] Asahi
    He's the most successful
     jockey of our class.
[05:21] Eri
    Wow, I didn't know that!
[05:23] Eri
    Was he always the top of the class?
[05:26] Asahi
    Of course!
[05:28] Amane
    Dad.
[05:30] Dad
    Amane, how are things with you?
[05:33] Dad
    Suffolk is still frightfully cold.
[05:36] Dad
    I can't wait for spring to get here.
[05:39] Dad
    By the way, your brother George will be
    riding in the upcoming 2000 Guineas Stakes.
[05:45] Dad
    Several horses from our stable are
    said to race at Royal Ascot this year.
[05:51] Amane
    Now tell me, my boy,
[05:53] Amane
    when are you going to crush your rivals?
[05:56] Amane
    I hope to hear some good news before
    this morning's tea gets cold.
[06:00] Amane
    I pray that, the next time we meet,
[06:03] Amane
    I shall be looking into the
    face of a fully-fledged jockey.
[06:08] Amane
    With love, Father.
[06:13] Amane
    A fully-fledged jockey.
[06:15] Staff
    Hey, Amane!
[06:18] Amane
    Why am I running errands?
[06:21] Amane
    Why do I have to...?
[06:24] Asahi
    Hey, Yoshihisa! How've you been?
[06:27] Amane
    Instructor?
[06:29] Kuji
    Don't call me by my first name.
[06:30] Kuji
    Leave.
[06:32] Asahi
    It's my big comeback time at Ritto.
[06:35] Asahi
    I wanted to get a quick look at your face.
[06:38] Kuji
    Stop talking like that already.
[06:40] Amane
    So he's always talked like that?
[06:42] Asahi
    You got a lot of help from
    the horse at the Yayoi Sho.
[06:47] Kuji
    The way they trained the horse helped.
[06:50] Asahi
    Yes!
[06:51] Asahi
    When I went to Sumeragi's place,
    they told me the same thing.
[06:54] Asahi
    Kuji worked with the horse.
[07:01] Asahi
    By the way, Yu Arimura's got a future, right?
[07:04] Kuji
    He's got a long way to go.
[07:06] Kuji
    I need to break his ego a bit
    more before he can be useful.
[07:09] Kuji
    Kids these days grow up spoiled.
[07:13] Asahi
    You're quite traditional, then.
[07:15] Kuji
    Former idols, female jockeys...
[07:18] Kuji
    The foreign kid, he's good,
    but I haven't even seen him lately.
[07:22] Asahi
    Nice point to focus on.
[07:25] Asahi
    He's still got a ton of problems.
[07:28] Asahi
    He sees his classmates as rivals.
[07:32] Kuji
    You wouldn't understand...
[07:35] Kuji
    How hard it is not to look at the
    flashes of light in front of you...
[07:44] Kuji
    And you dropped out before
    I could settle the score.
[07:47] Kuji
    But...
[07:47] Kuji
    That's allowed me to focus on my real goal.
[07:52] Asahi
    I'm looking forward to it.
[08:04] Tako
    Old articles on Instructor Asahi?
[08:07] Amane
    Yes. If you have any articles from
    when he was a jockey, show them to me.
[08:10] Tako
    Okay, but...
[08:13] Tako
    This is the first time
    you've talked to me, Amane.
[08:21] Tako
    Yutaka Asahi
[08:21] Tako
    A Winner in his Second Race!
[08:25] Amane
    And the next year...
[08:29] Amane
    Yutaka Asahi
[08:29] Amane
    Going for the Major Win!!
[08:29] Amane
    Newcomer Jockey Kuji
    Finally Gets His First Win
[08:33] Amane
    Yutaka Asahi Retires After Major Win
[08:33] Amane
    Was it personal reasons?
[08:34] Amane
    Kuji Gets Second Win
[08:36] Amane
    I see...
[08:38] Amane
    Yutaka Asahi Retires After Major Win
[08:38] Amane
    "Settle the score"...
[08:43] Asahi
    Your grandson's in high school next year?
[08:45] Matsumiya
    So soon, right?
[08:47] Matsumiya
    He was born the year you came here.
[08:56] Asahi
    That was a long, long time ago.
[08:59] Asahi
    I did get my wins a little sooner than Kuji,
[09:03] Asahi
    but it was luck.
[09:05] Amane
    But Kuji wanted a chance
     to settle the score.
[09:08] Asahi
    You heard that, huh?
[09:10] Asahi
    Ears on walls and eyes on windows, I guess.
[09:15] Asahi
    As I see it, Kuji never
    cared that much about me.
[09:19] Asahi
    He was looking far, far ahead.
[09:25] Asahi
    He's after the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
[09:27] Asahi
    To be the best in the world.
[09:29] Asahi
    You were the same, weren't you?
[09:31] Asahi
    Amane?
[09:33] Amane
    You want me to stop seeing
    my classmates as rivals?
[09:36] Asahi
    No.
[09:38] Amane
    No?
[09:40] Asahi
    That's not your only problem.
[09:42] Asahi
    I went to your stable.
[09:46] Asahi
    The advice of the people
    around you, you... rejection?
[09:51] Amane
    Rejection?
[09:52] Asahi
    Yes. You reject it.
[09:54] Asahi
    They said it's a waste that you've got
    talent but you don't try to learn.
[09:59] Amane
    Japanese training styles don't suit me.
[10:02] Amane
    So many rules.
[10:04] Amane
    They're not good for
    the horse or the jockey.
[10:10] Amane
    When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
[10:14] Amane
    You're going to tell me
[10:15] Amane
    to try and get along with everybody,
    just like the rest, aren't you?
[10:20] Amane
    I'm sick of these bullshit rules!
[10:22] Asahi
    Amane, that's a no, too.
[10:26] Asahi
    You're a jockey,
[10:27] Asahi
    and a jockey has to believe
    that his own way is best.
[10:31] Asahi
    Lonely. Selfish. Fighting those around them.
[10:35] Amane
    Then...
[10:36] Asahi
    Find the answer here.
[10:43] Asahi
    For a horse and jockey to fight in a race,
[10:45] Asahi
    they need the help of a lot of people.
[10:48] Asahi
    That's what your training this year is about.
     Getting close to the horses,
[10:52] Asahi
    learning how the races work for real.
[10:55] Asahi
    This is where jockeys learn
    that they're not alone.
[11:00] Asahi
    That's why they can go out
    to the races all by themselves.
[11:03] Asahi
    And when you do,
    what will burn in your heart?
[11:07] Asahi
    Amane. What's your goal as a jockey?
[11:20] Amane
    Instructor...
[11:23] Amane
    What did you feel when
     you became a jockey?
[11:27] Asahi
    Nothing.
[11:31] Asahi
    Nothing at all.
[11:34] Asahi
    That's why I quit.
[11:44] Tako
    Just a little more...
[11:46] Eri
    Tako, stop it!
[11:49] Eri
    I need to help carry things!
[11:53] Asahi
    No overbearing reporters.
[11:56] Tako
    Asahi!
[11:57] Asahi
    Shimotsuki, run away!
[11:59] Eri
    Thank you, instructor!
[12:01] Eri
    Bye, Tako!
[12:03] Tako
    Wait, Eri!
[12:08] Tako
    You used to be a jockey.
[12:10] Tako
    You know how important it is to
    be able to deal with the media.
[12:13] Tako
    You should be helping me!
[12:16] Asahi
    Sorry!
[12:17] Asahi
    But keeping my students
    safe is what I live for now.
[12:30] Instructor
    Come in.
[12:32] Amane
    Excuse me, sir.
[12:57] Amane
    Yes, sir. Understood.
[13:00] Yu
    Good run, Amane.
[13:02] Amane
    Of course.
[13:04] Amane
    But I'm out of practice.
[13:06] Amane
    I haven't figured out this horse yet.
[13:09] Yu
    Your teacher let you on a horse again.
[13:11] Amane
    Let me? Ridiculous.
[13:15] Yu
    You were having a polite
    conversation with him.
[13:18] Yu
    Didn't you agree to do what he said?
[13:20] Amane
    No.
[13:22] Amane
    I didn't apologize so I
    could fit in here in Japan.
[13:25] Amane
    I did it for my own sake.
[13:27] Amane
    I'm going to use all these bullshit
    rules for my own benefit!
[13:32] Amane
    I'm done with petty rivalries.
[13:35] Amane
    My heart is worldwide!
[13:37] Amane
    Yu Arimura, we can go together,
[13:40] Amane
    if you're up for it.

    It's going well.
[13:53] Akari
    He's more tractable than he was.
[13:56] Tayasu
    Do you think he's upset about
    being taken off Oak Diamond?
[13:59] Akari
    He's always had the skills
    to back up his talk.
[14:02] Akari
    We can count on him.
[14:04] Shun
    Good.
[14:10] Kikumi
    Okay, that'll do it.
[14:13] Shun
    Kikumi, can I brush him a little more?
[14:16] Kikumi
    You really do care for

[14:20] Kikumi
    Don't go too crazy.
[14:27] Shun

[14:34] Miku
    You look so cool, Kisuke!

    It's his last race,

    When it's over, let me ride you!
[15:08] Kishino
    He looks good.
[15:10] Sumeragi
    Yes. It appears Kikumi
    was worried over nothing.
[15:14] Kishino
    He's been looking after Kisuke for so long.
[15:16] Kishino
    Maybe he got a little
    overprotective at the end.
[15:22] Hayashida
    His coat's beautiful.
[15:24] Hayashida
    Sumeragi did a great job.
[15:26] Kikumi
    Yeah.
[15:27] Kikumi
    She knows her stuff.
[15:29] Shun
    Hayashida, I'm sorry for
    our earlier argument.
[15:32] Hayashida
    Don't worry about it.
[15:34] Hayashida
    Getting angry just means
    it's important to you.
[15:36] Shun
    I think we can leave Kisuke's
    last race to you, right?
[15:43] Hayashida
    You think so, do you?
[15:49] Hayashida
    Leave it to me!
[16:03] Hayashida
    It's raining.
[16:16] Kishino
    1000 meters to go.
[16:18] Akari
    Here we go...
[16:19] Hayashida
    Okay. Push through!
[16:33] Shun
    Go! Go, Kisuke!
[16:54] Miku
    What's wrong?
[16:59] Kikumi
    Now we've done it...
[17:29] Akari
    Watch Miku.
[17:32] Shun
    Okay.
[17:54] Shun
    Miku!
[18:00] Miku
    Liar...
[18:04] Miku
    You said Kisuke was ready
    for the race yesterday.
[18:10] Miku
    But his leg hurt, didn't it?
[18:17] Miku
    Did Kisuke... really want to race?
[18:23] Miku
    Did you hear his voice?
[18:30] Shun
    I...
[18:33] Miku
    You said you'd let me ride Kisuke.
[18:40] Miku
    You said that!
[18:46] Miku
    Kisuke...
[19:24] Eri
    I don't even know what to say.
[19:26] Amane
    No. The best thing we can do
    right now is leave them alone.
[19:35] Shun
    Morning!
[19:40] Yu
    Good morning!
[19:41] Eri
    Morning.
[19:42] Amane
    Good morning!
[19:54] Shun
    Kikumi!
[19:56] Shun
    I'll take the old straw
    to the storehouse, okay?
[20:02] Kikumi
    Okay.
[20:07] Hayashida
    I'm sorry about what happened.
[20:10] Hayashida
    Goodbye.
[20:13] Akari
    Thank you.
[20:21] Kikumi
    If only I'd been firmer...
[20:24] Kikumi
    If we'd taken him to a doctor, they might've
    found out what was wrong with his leg.
[20:29] Kikumi
    I'm so sorry!
[20:32] Tayasu
    It's not your fault.
[20:34] Akari
    I'm the one who decided to race him,
    and suggested we do so to his owner.
[20:39] Akari
    It's entirely my fault.
[20:45] Akari
    Kikumi.
[20:46] Akari
    How's Kazanami?
[20:48] Kikumi
    Surprisingly, not that
    much different than usual.
[20:52] Kikumi
    I thought he'd be more down.
[20:56] Tayasu
    Because he's a horseman,
    even if he doesn't look it.
[21:03] Akari
    I hope that's why...
[21:11] Shun
    Kirarin.
[21:14] Shun
    What's wrong, Kirarin?
[21:16] Shun
    You full?
[21:20] Shun
    Kirarin?
[21:38] Shun
    Why?
[21:41] Shun
    Why?
[21:43] Shun
    Wait!
[21:54] Kikumi
    It's a cold one out there today, Shun.
[22:06] Kikumi
    Shun?
