[00:02] Shibakiyama
Do you and the Dachi High team wanna
come over and train with us this weekend?
[00:06] Shibakiyama
Sumo wrestlers from another stable are
joining us for a joint training session.
[00:10] Shibakiyama
You'll get the chance to fight
a current ozeki wrestler.
[00:13] Hinomaru
A-An ozeki?!
[00:19] Hinomaru
The Dachi High sumo club
[00:21] Hinomaru
has arrived in Nagoya!
[00:24] Chihiro
Miso cutlets and chicken wings!
[00:28] Kirihito
Hey, now. We're not here as tourists.
[00:31] Kirihito
We're here to train, remember.
[00:33] Yuma
We got here quicker than I thought.
[00:36] Yuma
The master's got a meeting, so we
won't see him till this evening, right?
[00:39] Kirihito
Yeah, so we'll have our own
team meeting until then.
[00:43] Chihiro
You've gotta be kidding!
[00:44] Chihiro
We've come all the way to Nagoya, dude!
[00:46] Ozeki
He's got a point.
[00:47] Ozeki
We can have a team meeting tonight.
[00:50] Mitsu
I want to go see Nagoya Castle.
[00:52] Kirihito
Oh, honestly.
[00:54] Kirihito
Tell them, Hinomaru.
[00:57] Hinomaru
Nagoya Castle sounds great.
[01:01] Hinomaru
Wh-What do you say, Kirihito?
[01:03] Hinomaru
A quick detour won't hurt.
[01:05] Ozeki
I'm not used to Ushio
saying things like that.
[01:09] Ozeki
He's normally the dictionary
definition of stoicism.
[01:12] Kirihito
Well, training for the national
tournament will undoubtedly be tense.
[01:17] Kirihito
This may be their only chance
to catch their breath
[01:21] Kirihito
before we leave Nagoya.
[01:23] Kirihito
Okay, let's go check out Nagoya Castle.
[01:26] Hinomaru
Yeah!
[01:28] Mitsu
Huh? Where'd the others go?
[01:31] Chihiro
Castles don't interest me one little bit.
[01:33] Chihiro
Let's eat!
[01:34] Yuma
My sentiments exactly.
[01:36] Ozeki
I want to try some Nagoya cuisine.

"Attack!! Nagoya Castle"
SIGN Welcome
Suzugatake Faction
[03:15] Guy A
High school sumo?
[03:18] Guy A
Oh, you mean those national treasures
sumo fans are always going on about.
[03:22] Guy B
It's a bumper crop this year. The kind
that only comes around once a century.
[03:27] Guy C
Still, this year's high school yokozuna
is bound to be Tennoji-kun again.
[03:32] Guy D
Tennoji's good, but there's also
Yamatokuni's boy, Kuze Sosuke.
[03:38] Guy D
I think he's got what it takes to earn
himself a national treasure moniker.
[03:42] Shibakiyama
One or two stand-out fighters
does not a bumper crop make.
[03:47] Shibakiyama
This year's high school sumo has been like
the Sengoku era, with several great talents.
[03:56] Hinomaru
This is fun!
[03:57] Hinomaru
I wish the others had left stuffing their
faces till later and come with us instead!
[04:01] Kirihito
I don't really get what's fun about it,
but I'm glad you're having a good time.
[04:05] Kirihito
By the way, who built Nagoya Castle?
[04:08] Kirihito
Miyamoto Musashi?
[04:10] Mitsu
History's not my bag,
and even I know you're way off.
[04:15] Chizuko
Nagoya Castle was constructed
by Tokugawa Ieyasu
[04:19] Chizuko
for his ninth son, Yoshinao.
[04:21] Hinomaru
Good knowledge, Hori-chan!
[04:24] Hinomaru
I always liked Yoshinao for his honesty.
[04:27] Kirihito
What are you two, history buffs?
[04:30] Keiji
Come one, come all!
[04:33] Keiji
The Sengoku period's
greatest hoodlum stands here!
[04:35] Keiji
Does anyone dare to challenge
Maeda Keiji to a sumo bout?
[04:40] Hinomaru
I do! I do! Sumo with Keiji! Sumo with Keiji!
[04:44] Kirihito
Hey! You can fight, but don't overdo it.
[04:47] Kirihito
He's just an actor, after all.
[04:49] Keiji
This guy looks pretty eager.
[04:52] Keiji
Okay, let's...
[04:53] Tenma
Yeah.
[04:55] Hinomaru
No, dude, Keiji was pointing at me.
[04:58] Hinomaru
I raised my hand first, too.
[05:01] Tenma
Huh? Surely it's up to Keiji who he fights.
[05:05] Tenma
And he and I just made eye contact.
[05:07] Hinomaru
Hey, give me a break!
[05:09] Hinomaru
I've come all the way from Chiba to be here!
[05:11] Tenma
So what? I've come from Ishikawa.
[05:15] Tenma
The Maeda family was from Ishikawa, too.
[05:18] Tenma
Just go back to Chiba and wrestle
some guy in a mouse costume there.
[05:23] Hinomaru
What'd you say?!
[05:24] Hinomaru
As a history enthusiast, I refuse!
[05:27] Hinomaru
And Keiji was from Yamagata!
[05:30] Tenma
All that aside, do you really think
you'd be a match for Keiji?
[05:36] Tenma
I don't like people underestimating Keiji,
[05:39] Tenma
but I like people
underestimating sumo even less.
[05:42] Mitsu
H-He's huge!
[05:43] Kirihito
And that's going to
seriously piss off Hinomaru...
[05:46] Hinomaru
And who are you suggesting
is "underestimating" sumo?
[05:49] Tenma
You are, kid. You.
[05:51] Tenma
Who else would I mean?
[05:54] Hinomaru
If that's how you feel, let's have
a bout to settle our argument.
[05:57] Hinomaru
One to decide who should
get the chance to take on Keiji.
[06:00] Tenma
Fine by me, but I won't be held
responsible if you end up getting hurt.
[06:04] Keiji
Well, this is an unexpected development...
[06:07] Keiji
But it sounds like fun, so go right ahead!
[06:12] Chizuko
He was supposed to be taking a breather,
but he's ended up sumo wrestling, anyway.
[06:16] Kirihito
Please... Don't anybody get hurt.
[06:20] Keiji
Okay, let's see what you got!
[06:28] Hinomaru
This guy...
[06:36] Guy A
The Sengoku era, huh?
[06:38] Guy A
You all do seem to be neglecting
another very important name.
[06:42] Guy C
Ah, yes. When talking about promising high
school students, we can't overlook him.
[06:48] Guy A
Yeah, I was thinking of inviting
him to our little training session.
[06:53] Shibakiyama
"Him"?
[06:54] Keiji
Spirit!
[07:01] Guy A
He's the strongest of the lot and
the closest to becoming a yokozuna.
[07:05] Guy A
He's the younger brother
of the ozeki, Daikeisho.
[07:10] Mitsu
He pushed Hinomaru-san
to the edge with one hit?
[07:12] Kirihito
What? How's this happening
here of all places?
[07:15] Tenma
I thought that'd be enough to finish you.
[07:18] Tenma
You're not bad.
[07:22] Hinomaru
What a terrifying strike.
[07:24] Hinomaru
If I get hit by that,
it'll knock my head clean off!
[07:27] Kirihito
Unleashing powerful strikes
with a massive reach...
[07:30] Kirihito
Reputed to be the best high school sumo,
with an ozeki for an older brother...
[07:34] Kirihito
National treasure: Odenta Mitsuyo,
AKA Hikage Tenma!
[07:39] Kirihito
That's enough, Hinomaru!
[07:40] Kirihito
There's no need to show your strength here!
[07:43] Hinomaru
No, it's the exact opposite!
[07:45] Hinomaru
I'm not showing him mine.
I'm gonna see what he's got!
[07:49] Hinomaru
It's not just Tennoji and Kuze
I need to defeat.
[07:53] Hinomaru
I need to see how far my strength
will take me at nationals!
[07:57] Hinomaru
And you're going to be
the measuring stick, Odenta!
[08:01] Mitsu
A frontal grab!
[08:02] Mitsu
Go!
[08:04] Hinomaru
Take this! Maximum strength for nationals!
[08:07] Hinomaru
Hundred-Thousand Demon...
[08:16] Hinomaru
What's this sinking feeling?
[08:18] Hinomaru
Come to think of it, why'd he
let me grab him so easily?
[08:23] Hinomaru
If I continue with this throw, will I lose?
[08:26] Tenma
What's wrong? Show me your throw...
[08:30] Tenma
Onimaru.
[08:39] Yonemura
I've been looking all over
for you, Tenma, you dolt!
[08:41] Yonemura
You've got some nerve, competing in a bout
when you're meant to be cleaning the hall.
[08:45] Yonemura
You may be a national treasure,
but don't let it get to your head!
[08:49] Tenma
But I haven't.
[08:52] Tenma
I already did my bit.
[08:55] Yonemura
Captain!
[08:56] Tenma
Can you please tell him?
It's impossible to get through to him.
[09:00] Aizawa
It looks like our club member
has been causing you trouble.
[09:04] Aizawa
Please accept our apologies.
[09:06] Aizawa
I realize you were in the middle of a bout,
but we must excuse ourselves.
[09:13] Aizawa
You can finish your fight at nationals,
[09:16] Aizawa
Mr. Triple Combo, Onimaru-kun.
[09:22] Mitsu
What did he just say?
[09:23] Kirihito
He made it sound like
they're looking out for it.
[09:27] Kirihito
Hikage's stance was
clearly inviting a throw.
[09:30] Kirihito
It's been less than a week
since the Inter High.
[09:33] Kirihito
Do they already know how to counter it?
[09:36] Aizawa
So how did you like meeting
Onimaru-kun in the flesh?
[09:40] Tenma
He was more of a coward than I expected.
[09:43] Tenma
Can't blame him, though.
[09:45] Tenma
No one wants to see their own
technique get utterly destroyed.

[09:54] Ozeki
Damn!
[09:57] Terahara
We can't let you high schoolers
beat us that easily.
[10:06] All
Thank you for your hard work!
[10:09] Saenoyama
Ushio-kun.
[10:13] Hinomaru
Um, where are we going, Saenoyama-zeki?
[10:16] Saenoyama
You look dejected.
[10:19] Saenoyama
I heard you've hit another wall.
[10:23] Hinomaru
It'll be okay.
[10:25] Hinomaru
But it seems my best weapon
won't bail me out at nationals.
[10:30] Hinomaru
Honestly, it's getting to me a little.
[10:34] Saenoyama
What are you talking about?
[10:36] Saenoyama
Your greatest weapon is
your heart that refuses to give up.
[10:44] Saenoyama
That master called you all the way out here
[10:47] Saenoyama
must mean he believes something here
will help you smash through that wall.
[10:51] Saenoyama
And that's the Suzugatake Faction,
which the Shibakiyama Stable is part of.
[10:57] Saenoyama
It represents what
you always desire the most:
[11:00] Saenoyama
an ordeal that'll make you stronger.
[11:06] Chizuko
We can see the whole
sumo ring from here.
[11:09] Chizuko
Let's set up here.
[11:11] Reina
Y-Yeah...
[11:14] Reina
But aren't we filming them
without permission?
[11:17] Chizuko
The instructor told us to.
[11:19] (Flashback) Kirihito
Follow those two and film their training.
[11:23] Reina
But why are just those two
training separately?
[11:27] Reina
Do only a select few
get invited into that tent?
[11:29] Chizuko
Yes, everyone in there
has a white mawashi belt.
[11:33] Chizuko
Meaning they're all sekitori.
[11:35] Chizuko
Sekitori are sumo wrestlers
in the juryo rank and above.
[11:38] Chizuko
They're considered the elite,
even among the pros.
[11:41] Reina
H-How do you know so much?
[11:44] Reina
You only just got into sumo...
[11:47] Chizuko
I did some research after joining the club.
[11:50] Chizuko
I'm their manager, so I need
to be as useful as possible.
[11:54] Hinomaru
Thank you for your hard work!
[12:02] Mionishiki
So you're the national treasure?
[12:04] Mionishiki
The one Shibakiyama-san likes.
[12:07] Hinomaru
I'm Ushio Hinomaru!
[12:08] Hinomaru
Thank you for having me!
[12:10] Mionishiki
Stow the gratitude.
What are you doing here?
[12:16] Mionishiki
This is a critical time for us in the
run-up to the Nagoya Tournament.
[12:21] Mionishiki
We're all here to get
some quality training done.
[12:25] Mionishiki
What's an amateur doing in here?
[12:27] Guy
Well, I didn't agree to this, either.
[12:31] Mionishiki
Rank is everything in professional sumo.
[12:34] Mionishiki
Promising high schooler prospect or not,
[12:36] Mionishiki
nobody gets to boss around
wrestlers of higher rank.
[12:40] Mionishiki
You don't even have a rank. You're nothing
more than a worm in our presence.
[12:46] Shibakiyama
Well, I doubt they'll be the most welcoming.
[12:49] Kirihito
You didn't get their approval?
[12:51] Shibakiyama
Sekitori are a proud bunch.
[12:55] Shibakiyama
They got to where they are
by fighting for it.
[12:59] Shibakiyama
Those without pride
could never make it there.
[13:01] Shibakiyama
The sumo ring is sacred ground where only
the rank of the current wrestlers matters.
[13:06] Shibakiyama
I can lead him to the straw of
the ring, but not one step farther.
[13:11] Shibakiyama
Whether he can get inside
and grasp something
[13:14] Shibakiyama
depends on Hinomaru-kun's determination.
[13:19] Guy
What do you say, Sae?
Not gonna bail him out?
[13:24] Saenoyama
No, I won't.
[13:26] Saenoyama
I have brought a bona fide
sumo wrestler to the ring.
[13:35] Hinomaru
If you consider me an eyesore,
feel free to push me out of the ring.
[13:40] Hinomaru
Rank is everything...
[13:42] Hinomaru
I just need to be strong enough to
be a good training partner, right?
[13:48] Hinomaru
Please decide my rank right here and now.
[13:54] Reina
What's he thinking?
[13:55] Reina
That guy's really strong, isn't he?
[13:57] Chizuko
Yes. He's the eighth-ranked east
maegashita, Mionishiki-seki.
[14:01] Chizuko
He's a higher rank than Saenoyama-zeki.
[14:04] Reina
But that means...
[14:06] Chizuko
Ushio-kun has never beaten Saenoyama-zeki.
[14:12] Hinomaru
An eighth-ranked maegashira...
Can I beat him?
[14:16] Hinomaru
No, I need to give it all I've got!
[14:19] Hinomaru
If I don't, I'll regret it!
[14:22] Hinomaru
I don't want to taste
any more disappointment!
[14:24] Mionishiki
A spider stance, huh?
[14:26] Mionishiki
Impudent child.
[14:28] Mionishiki
Come.
[14:29] Guy
Spirit!
[14:38] Guy
He came off second-best,
but he's hanging in there.
[14:40] Hinomaru
In that bout with Hikage,
[14:42] Hinomaru
why did I stop myself mid-move?
[14:47] Hinomaru
I was afraid.
[14:48] Hinomaru
Afraid of losing the small amount
I've accomplished up until now.
[14:54] Hinomaru
But...
[14:55] Hinomaru
That's not it!
[14:58] Hinomaru
This technique requires you
to put your life on the line!
[15:02] Hinomaru
Do not fear death!
[15:03] Hinomaru
Step forward!
[15:06] Hinomaru
All my body and spirit is going into this!
[15:10] Hinomaru
Hundred-Thousand Demon Drop!
[15:18] Guy
What was that?
[15:21] Reina
Yes!
[15:24] Hinomaru
It's not dead.
[15:26] Hinomaru
The Hundred-Thousand
Demon Drop is still alive!
[15:29] Saenoyama
How do you like my junior apprentice?
[15:32] Saenoyama
A tad more useful than
a worm, wouldn't you say?
[15:35] Shunkai
So that's him.
[15:36] Shunkai
That's the guy Kaoruyama's been on about.
[15:39] Shunkai
He's one interesting kid.
[15:42] Hinomaru
I threw a makuuchi sumo wrestler.
[15:45] Hinomaru
That sinking feeling during my bout
with Hikage was all in my head!
[15:51] Hinomaru
The power of the Hundred-Thousand
Demon Drop is real.
[15:54] Hinomaru
I can use this technique against Hikage!
[15:57] Guy
I see! You have a very interesting style.
[16:01] Guy
Would you fight me next?
[16:03] Guy
No, wait. I'll go next!
[16:05] Reina
They're all clamoring for his attention now.
[16:08] Hinomaru
Was I imagining them all staring at me?
[16:12] Guy
It looks like he's earned
the right to train here.
[16:15] Saenoyama
Yes, but he's only made it to the start line.
[16:19] Shunkai
Welcome to the ordeal.
[16:29] Guy
It was close, but let's say
we hit at the same time.
[16:32] Guy
That's an incredible technique.
[16:34] Hinomaru
Wh-What was that?
[16:36] Hinomaru
Did I make a mistake?
[16:37] Guy
Okay, I'm next.
[16:40] Guy
Spirit!
[16:42] Hinomaru
This technique is a triple combo
that there's no coming back from!
[16:45] Hinomaru
If it's not done exactly right, I lose!
[16:51] Guy
There.
[16:54] Guy
I guess that's that.
[16:58] Hinomaru
P-Please wait! Can we go
one more time, please?
[17:01] Guy
Sure. We can fight till you're satisfied.
[17:08] Reina
No... But how?
[17:10] Reina
Was the first one a fluke?
[17:13] Hinomaru
Damn... I think I had the timing right there...
[17:17] Mionishiki
Want to fight me again?
[17:20] Hinomaru
Mionishiki-zeki.
[17:27] Hinomaru
This is the same feeling I had with Hikage.
[17:31] Hinomaru
The sinking feeling.
[17:33] Hinomaru
Ignore it!
[17:34] Hinomaru
There!
[17:39] Reina
N-No...
[17:41] Chizuko
Even Mionishiki-zeki, who he threw earlier...
[17:43] Mionishiki
Now you know the truth
about your technique.
[17:47] Mionishiki
You caught me unawares the first time, sure.
[17:49] Mionishiki
I'd never seen a technique like that before.
[17:52] Mionishiki
But it has more than its
fair share of weaknesses.
[17:56] Mionishiki
We sekitori spend our days
analyzing and being analyzed.
[18:00] Mionishiki
The same trick doesn't work on us twice.
[18:03] Mionishiki
Okay, looks like playtime's over.
[18:05] Mionishiki
Let's get back to training.
[18:07] All
Yeah.
[18:09] Chizuko
Having his move anticipated like
that must come as quite a shock.
[18:13] Reina
Y-Yeah, but he's fighting
elite pro sumo wrestlers.
[18:17] Reina
High schoolers wouldn't
be able to do that.
[18:21] Chizuko
You may be right that only pros
would be able to counter a technique
[18:24] Chizuko
that they've only seen once.
[18:28] Chizuko
But if a move is recorded
and analyzed over and over...
[18:33] Chizuko
It's entirely possible the same
thing could happen at nationals.
[18:41] Hinomaru
My body and spirit have
reached their limits.
[18:44] Hinomaru
My trump card has been defeated.
[18:47] Hinomaru
Does this mean I can't get any stronger?
[18:51] Reina
So he really can't become a yokozuna.
[18:54] Reina
I mean, his spirit, body and
technique have all peaked.
[18:58] Shunkai
His technique has peaked?
[19:01] Shunkai
Technique is something you spend
your whole life developing.
[19:06] Shunkai
There is no end point, young lady.
[19:10] Hinomaru
I'm being stupid!
[19:12] Hinomaru
Remember what Saenoyama-zeki
said to you, you idiot!
[19:16] Hinomaru
Don't give up! Think!
[19:19] Hinomaru
There must be something
I can learn from the ozeki here!
[19:23] Shunkai
Show me your face.
[19:25] Shunkai
You've got about as much life
in you as a worm, but that'll do.
[19:29] Shunkai
Hasegawa!
[19:31] Saenoyama
Who's calling me by my old moniker?
[19:34] Shunkai
I'm going to borrow this little demon.
[19:39] All
Thank you for your hard work!
[19:41] Shunkai
You're all too loud.
[19:43] Saenoyama
Why is that man here?
Is this Master Shibakiyama's doing?
[19:47] Chizuko
The sekitori are acting differently.
[19:50] Reina
Who exactly is that old geezer?
[19:53] Saenoyama
Go, Ushio-kun.
[19:55] Saenoyama
I mean, you should go with him.
[19:58] Saenoyama
I'm actually rather envious of you.
[20:00] Saenoyama
I wish I could swap places with you.
[20:04] Shunkai
Hey.
[20:05] Shunkai
One of you girls can come, too.
[20:06] Shunkai
You.
[20:07] Shunkai
The sassy-looking brunette.
[20:09] Reina
Huh? Who, me?
[20:13] Hinomaru
Um, where are we going?
[20:16] Reina
Hey. Just who is this old coot?
[20:20] Hinomaru
Pardon me.
[20:22] Hinomaru
I'm not sure what you have in mind,
but I have very little time.
[20:26] Hinomaru
I was planning on staying in that
tent and training with the ozeki.
[20:29] Shunkai
We're here.
[20:35] Reina
Jeez, look at this mansion!
[20:37] Reina
Seriously, who are you?
[20:39] Shunkai
Open it.
[20:45] Hinomaru
There's dust everywhere!
[20:47] Shunkai
You want to train with the ozeki?
[20:49] Shunkai
What's so great about them?
[20:51] Shunkai
None of them are champions.
[20:54] Shunkai
If you insist, I'll let you decide.
[20:57] Shunkai
I'm a nice guy, after all.
[21:00] Shunkai
Would you rather go back
and train with the ozeki, or...
[21:04] Shunkai
Will you let me, a former
yokozuna, instruct you?
[21:10] Reina
A f-former yokozuna?
[21:13] Shunkai
I'm telling you I'll hone that
technique into a real weapon.
[21:18] Shunkai
Idiot.

Hey, this is a miso cake!

Here's the special miso topping

I can't eat that!
