[00:46] Yu
    Congrats, Amane.
[00:49] Amane
    Thank you, Yu Arimura.
[00:51] Amane
    I finally feel like I've come
    into my own as a jockey!
[00:54] Yu
    Amane...
[00:58] Amane
    Is that what you thought I'd say?
[01:01] Amane
    If this is the best riding I can do,
[01:03] Amane
    competing at a world level
    is a dream within a dream!
[01:09] Amane
    Listen, wimps!
[01:12] Amane
    I'm not planning on being a jockey in Japan!
[01:15] Amane
    I'm going to use this place as a
    stepping stone to the wider world!
[01:19] Amane
    You can stay here as
    frogs in your little pond!
[01:22] Amane
    If you want to fight me, be world class!
[01:26] Amane
    I'll be waiting for you!
[01:30] Eri
    Amane's speech style has started
    to match the instructor's.
[01:34] Aki
    That's his biggest bad influence...
[01:37] Tako
    It's been three years since my
    camera first started rolling,
[01:44] Tako
    and the little birds are
    about to leave the nest!

    Kota!
[02:23] Aki
    Come with me for a sec.
[02:28] Aki
    I've always wanted to say
     something to you.
[02:35] Aki
    I knew you were prejudiced
    against me and Sojiro.
[02:40] Aki
    Yes, my dad is a jockey
    out in the countryside.
[02:43] Aki
    You thought I was blessed, right?
[02:51] Aki
    I'll admit it's true.
[02:53] Aki
    But so what?
[02:57] Aki
    You don't have the right to say a damn thing!
[03:00] Aki
    You have the way you fight,
[03:04] Aki
    and we have ours!
[03:09] Kota
    I know that!
[03:11] Kota
    And... not being blessed is
    a weapon on its own, you see.
[03:17] Kota
    We'll never see eye to eye.
[03:21] Kota
    But I'll never lose to you! That's all!

[04:08] Eri
    I'll do my best, no matter
    what the situation.
[04:12] Eri
    Well, I haven't won yet...
[04:14] Eri
    But my horse this time is one I've
    ridden a lot since my first year.
[04:19] Eri
    I hope I can show you how
    well we work together!
[04:24] Tako
    Okay, looks good. Thanks.
[04:26] Eri
    Was that a little stiff?
[04:29] Eri
    Want to do it again?
[04:30] Tako
    It was fine!
[04:32] Tako
    I'll be showing it alongside your
    graduation! Look forward to it!
[04:36] Tako
    I'll get the other kids later.
[04:38] Asahi
    Okay!
[04:41] Asahi
    Good work, Miss Shimotsuki.
[04:44] Eri
    I hope it doesn't make me look
    worse than if I'd done nothing.
[04:49] Asahi
    It's fine.
[04:51] Eri
    But a lot of people will be watching.
[04:54] Asahi
    No, Shimotsuki.
[04:58] Asahi
    It's true that you're bringing a
    lot of attention to horse racing,
[05:01] Asahi
    but that's not your problem.
[05:04] Eri
    But the reporters are
    coming because I'm here...
[05:08] Asahi
    That's going way, way too far.
[05:12] Asahi
    Don't force yourself to carry
    unnecessary burdens.
[05:16] Asahi
    Nobody needs you to.
[05:18] Asahi
    Once, there was a jockey who got bigger
    articles written about him than Kuji.
[05:23] Asahi
    But the instant he quit, the articles
     went down to minimum size.
[05:27] Asahi
    Now, few people even
    know he's an instructor.
[05:32] Asahi
    But that's just because he's not that good.
[05:35] Asahi
    He didn't deserve the big articles.
[05:40] Asahi
    Who you are doesn't
     equal horse racing.
[05:43] Asahi
    You're still just you!
[05:45] Eri
    I'm just me.
[05:47] Asahi
    Yes!
[05:48] Asahi
    So, if you're not worthy of the attention
    you're getting right now, what do you do?
[05:53] Eri
    I'll go train!
[05:54] Eri
    I need to go make a lot of money!
[05:58] Asahi
    Excellent!
[06:04] Waitress
    Here you go.
[06:07] Waitress
    Enjoy yourselves.
[06:09] Sojiro
    Thanks!
[06:15] Hayato
    Even this place is your territory?
[06:17] Sojiro
    We just got to know each other.
[06:19] Sojiro
    She says she'll watch the
    broadcast of the race.
[06:24] Hayato
    Kota's gotten a lot better.
[06:27] Sojiro
    You're watching?
[06:29] Hayato
    You all ride like pros.
    Way better than before.
[06:34] Hayato
    Your time at the training center paid off.
[06:37] Sojiro
    I guess so.
[06:40] Sojiro
    How's your studying going, Hayato?
[06:43] Sojiro
    My dad set me up at a prep school.
[06:46] Sojiro
    I'll be able to take college
    entrance exams next year.
[06:49] Sojiro
    Until then, I'm studying hard.
[06:51] Sojiro
    Nohira's a good guy, huh?
[06:53] Hayato
    He promised to help me out
    until I get into college.
[06:57] Hayato
    It's nice to have a dad around
    when things get rough.
[07:01] Sojiro
    It's got its good and bad sides.
[07:04] Hayato
    Once I'm in, it's up to me.
[07:08] Hayato
    Studying to be a vet takes money,
[07:11] Hayato
    and it ain't easy.
[07:15] Sojiro
    It's the same for people and horses, huh?
[07:18] Hayato
    But I won't give up.
[07:20] Hayato
    When I was at the Horse Racing School,
    I was working as hard as I possibly could.
[07:27] Hayato
    Experiencing that was a big help.
[07:30] Sojiro
    Yeah.
[07:39] Sojiro
    Someday, you'll be looking after
    my horse at Miho or Ritto.
[07:44] Hayato
    That's years away.
[07:48] Sojiro
    But you know,
[07:50] Sojiro
    having you in the same business as me
[07:54] Sojiro
    makes me happy.
[08:03] Hayato
    I think I understand why girls like you.
[08:08] Sojiro
    What does that mean?
[08:09] Hayato
    Never mind.
[08:10] Sojiro
    What? Now I'm curious!

[09:24] Yu
    Yeah.

    I'm grateful to you.
[09:35] CEO
    When I first met you...
[09:42] CEO
    You had strong-willed eyes
    that I can never forget.
[09:46] CEO
    I made you into an idol so that
    those eyes would have a home,
[09:52] CEO
    and you've more than lived
    up to my expectations.
[09:56] CEO
    Your eyes had an effect on people.
[10:01] CEO
    That's why you became a top idol.
[10:05] CEO
    And now you're giving people dreams
    as a jockey instead, that's all.

    We hadn't seen each other since then.

    I showed her a video

[13:32] Yu
    Was she happy?
[13:33] Shun
    Really happy.
[13:35] Shun
    I told her I'd said goodbye to Kisuke, too.
[13:39] Yu
    I see.

    Momo will be a good horse.
[13:44] Shun
    Miku will cheer her on, too.
[13:51] Shun
    Yu, go to the Derby with Momo, okay?
[13:59] Yu
    That's so selfish.
[14:06] Tako
    Will Yu and Kazanami make it?

    Hard work will never betray you!
[15:26] Shun
    I saw how upset Kota was.
[15:31] Shun
    When he lost to you in the last mock race.
[15:35] Shun
    I was too scared to even speak to him.
[15:40] Yu
    He was just that frustrated.
[15:47] Shun
    I don't understand that feeling.
[15:55] Shun
    Yu, I...
[16:01] Yu
    I'll hear it from you here.
[16:07] Yu
    I like this place.
[16:14] Yu
    Now!
[16:24] Yu
    We were looking in the same direction.
[16:27] Yu
    Don't you like horses, and racing, too?
[16:31] Shun
    I do.
[16:33] Shun
    I do, and that's why I realized that just
    liking something doesn't make it a job.
[16:40] Shun
    When I left Ritto, Sumeragi
    said something to me.
[16:46] Shun
    If you ever want to choose a
    path besides being a jockey,
[16:52] Shun
    you're always welcome here.
[17:01] Shun
    She saw it.
[17:04] Yu
    Then, you...?
[17:06] Shun
    I don't know.
[17:08] Shun
    Maybe I'll be a trainer.
    Maybe I'll help at Hirato Farms.
[17:12] Shun
    But
[17:15] Shun
    the one thing I'm sure of...
[17:19] Shun
    is that I'm not a jockey.
[17:30] Yu
    That sounds just like you, Shun.
[17:33] Yu
    So I won't hold back about
    what I'm thinking, either.
[17:40] Yu
    Tomorrow, race me for real.
[17:43] Shun
    Yeah. I know.
[17:45] Shun
    But what's this hat for?
[17:48] Yu
    I'll give it to you.
[17:49] Yu
    You always look like you're
    about to float off somewhere.
[17:53] Yu
    So I need something to help
    me find you, wherever you are.
[17:57] Shun
    You're exaggerating.
[18:00] Shun
    But thanks.
[18:03] Shun
    I'll take good care of it.
[18:06] Shun
    Okay, I need to give you something, too, Yu.
