[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!

[13:53] 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     your horses, don't you? [14:20] Kikumi     Don't go too crazy. [14:27] Shun     There we go. [14:34] Miku     You look so cool, Kisuke! [14:36] Shun     It's his last race,     so many people will see him. [14:39] Shun     He needs to look his best! [14:44] Shun     Just a little more!

[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?
