[00:18] Shibakiyama
    His confidence is waning by the day.
[00:20] Shibakiyama
    All the energy he had on
    the first day has evaporated, too.
[00:24] Kirihito
    Fighting against the pros
    is overwhelming him.
[00:28] Kirihito
    When he feels intimidated, he stiffens up
    and isn't able to unleash his full strength.
[00:32] Kirihito
    Nationals will be a stern test.
[00:34] Kirihito
    I need to come up with a way
    to make him feel confident
[00:38] Kirihito
    in the ring and in his everyday life.
[00:44] Chihiro
    Captain!
[00:46] Chihiro
    I'm gonna take you somewhere after training.
[00:51] Chihiro
    Okay!
[00:52] Chihiro
    Tsuruko, did you look into
    what I asked you to?

    My name is Chizuko.

    Hey, Kunisaki...
[00:57] Ozeki
    Where are we going with Hori-san in tow?
[01:04] Ozeki
    H-Hori-san?!
[01:06] Chihiro
    Here's yours, Captain.
[01:08] Chihiro
    You wanna be confident, right?
[01:10] Chihiro
    Well, I know a surefire way.
[01:14] Chihiro
    I was gonna go down there by myself,
[01:16] Chihiro
    but if we can build up your confidence
    and do scouting at the same time...
[01:19] Chihiro
    It kills two birds with one rock!
[01:22] Chizuko
    Two birds with one stone, you mean.
[01:23] Ozeki
    Scouting?

[03:13] Kirihito
    Okay, last one!
[03:17] Terahara
    Gojo-kun has a regimen set
    by his karate instructor,
[03:20] Terahara
    and Mitsuhashi-kun's
    doing strength training.
[03:23] Terahara
    They're all training individually
    after their group session with us.
[03:26] Shibakiyama
    I'm sure they value their
    time training with the pros,
[03:30] Shibakiyama
    but it thankfully isn't
    enough to satisfy them.
[03:34] Shibakiyama
    Whether they know it or not,
[03:36] Shibakiyama
    their losses at the team finals have
    influenced them in a good way.
[03:42] Shibakiyama
    I wonder what the other two are up to.
[03:46] Police
    Well, looks like they've reflected on
    their actions, so I'll be going now.
[03:52] Chihiro
    Unbelievable. I didn't expect
    you to actually call the police.
[03:56] Yonemura
    You Odachi jerk!
[03:58] Yonemura
    We got scared 'cause we thought some
    luchadors had come to wreck up the place!
[04:03] Yonemura
    Furthermore!
[04:04] Yonemura
    That's the mask El Ultimo uses in MMA bouts!
[04:08] Chihiro
    Oh, you can tell?
[04:09] Sera
    Oh, wow, Odachi's got a female manager?
[04:12] Sera
    You're a real cutie pie.
    And that mask looks great on you!
[04:16] Sera
    Let's swap digits, yeah?
[04:17] Aizawa
    Cool it, Takumi.
[04:19] Aizawa
    Or your smartphone'll get smashed.
[04:20] Ozeki
    He said we were here to scout,
    so why'd we walk in through the front door?

[04:26] Ozeki
    This is Kanazawa Kita High School.
[04:28] Ozeki
    They've triumphed at nationals in the past
    and came third in last year's Inter High.
[04:32] Ozeki
    They're a renowned sumo powerhouse!
[04:34] Sera
    Say, Captain Aizawa.
[04:37] Sera
    How about we spar with them a little?
[04:41] Sera
    I wanna show this chick my moves, you dig?
[04:44] Sera
    And after Onimaru beat Tenma,
    I feel like we owe them some payback.
[04:50] Aizawa
    Absolutely not.
[04:51] Aizawa
    Kita High's here in Nagoya
    to get stronger, remember?
[04:55] Aizawa
    We can't beat Odachi High here
    and help make them stronger instead.
[05:00] Chihiro
    What?
[05:03] Aizawa
    Please let Onimaru know that
     I'm glad he beat Tenma.
[05:07] Aizawa
    Losing is a great motivator
    for becoming stronger.
[05:10] Aizawa
    So now, Tenma will get stronger.
[05:14] Aizawa
    I won't tell anyone about the intrusion.
[05:17] Aizawa
    I'd prefer to beat you in the ring
    than get your school suspended.
[05:21] Chihiro
    So he says.
[05:22] Chihiro
    What do we do, Captain?
[05:24] Ozeki
    Huh? Who, me?
[05:25] Ozeki
    Um...
[05:27] Ozeki
    Could we fight just one bout?

[05:43] Aizawa
    There's no comparison between our
    rich history, created by past sumo teams,
[05:48] Aizawa
    and your nothing team who made it
    this far on dumb, beginner's luck alone.
[06:02] Chizuko
    I didn't expect us to walk out in silence.
[06:04] Chizuko
    Kunisaki-san usually bites back.
[06:07] Ozeki
    So we're a nothing team?
[06:12] Ozeki
    Yeah, I really can't take that lying down.
[06:18] Ozeki
    Sorry. You two head on back without me.
[06:23] Chihiro
    Looks like it worked.
[06:26] Chihiro
    That guy was dead right.
[06:28] Chihiro
    Kita High is prestigious, while we're
     basically nobodies with almost zero history.
[06:32] Chihiro
    But...
[06:35] Chihiro
    The captain isn't going to let anyone
    insult the history, however short it is,
[06:39] Chihiro
    of the sumo club he founded!
[06:41] Chihiro
    Isn't that right, Captain?
[06:45] Ozeki
    I know how prestigious Kita High is.
[06:49] Ozeki
    But to call us a nothing team...
[06:53] Ozeki
    They don't know what it's
    like to start from nothing!
[06:57] Ozeki
    They know nothing!
[06:59] Ozeki
    Two lonely years, then
    finally finding teammates...
[07:03] Ozeki
    Through working together,
    we beat Ishi High.
[07:06] Ozeki
    And he dares to say we're a nothing team?!
[07:09] Ozeki
    We won't be handwaved away like that!
[07:14] Aizawa
    What is it? Forgotten something?
[07:16] Ozeki
    Yeah, I forgot to say something important.
[07:20] Ozeki
    Kanazawa Kita High won't be victorious
    at nationals this year, either.
[07:25] Ozeki
    Dachi High's sumo club is the strongest!
[07:28] Ozeki
    And you'll find that out for yourselves
    when we win at nationals!
[07:35] Ozeki
    U-Uh, I mean...
[07:38] Ozeki
    Don't look down on Dachi High!
[07:40] Ozeki
    Th-That's all!
[07:41] Ozeki
    E-Excuse me!
[07:44] Aizawa
    Guess I went and said
    something unnecessary again.
[07:48] Sera
    The captain's the most determined guy here.
[07:51] Sera
    I know how badly he wants
    to declare that we're gonna win.
[07:56] Yonemura
    Don't worry about that.
    We all feel the same way.
[08:01] Aizawa
    Yeah. We're going to emerge as champions.
[08:05] Aizawa
    We're not looking down on you,
    Odachi High School.
[08:08] Aizawa
    We've studied Onimaru and the momentum
    that took you past Ishi High.
[08:15] Aizawa
    Very carefully, at that!
[08:18] Ozeki
    Steel yourself for it already!
[08:20] Ozeki
    I've told myself that so many times!
[08:23] Ozeki
    I'm going to make Dachi High
    national champions!
[08:30] Shibakiyama
    Yes! Now, keep pushing!
[08:36] Shibakiyama
    Okay, good.
[08:38] Shibakiyama
    Don't forget that flow.
[08:40] Mitsu
    Thank you very much!
[08:42] Kirihito
    Jeez, do you even know how lucky you are?
[08:45] Kirihito
    Getting to actually spar with
    Master Shibakiyama is a big deal.
[08:50] Kirihito
    To be honest, I'm a little envious.
[08:52] Shibakiyama
    Well, I need to get my exercise, too.
[08:55] Shibakiyama
    I can still hold my own against
    high-school students at least.
[09:00] Mitsu
    Master, you really are incredible!
[09:02] Mitsu
    Your instructions are more precise and
    easier to understand than our instructor's.
[09:07] Mitsu
    His explanations are crude,
     and he's often inflexible.
[09:10] Mitsu
    He's still got a lot to learn, hasn't he?
[09:12] Kirihito
    Hey...
[09:14] Kirihito
    Don't go comparing me to the master.
[09:17] Shibakiyama
    It comes with age.
[09:19] Shibakiyama
    You're still a first-year, aren't you?
    You're on the right track!
[09:22] Kirihito
    Man, I know I've got a lot to learn still.
[09:27] Kirihito
    I'm trying my best here, dammit.
[09:31] Mitsu
    Don't beat yourself up.
[09:33] Mitsu
    Sure, there are things you can improve,
[09:36] Mitsu
    but you're the one who put Dachi High
    in touch with the Shibakiyama Stable.
[09:41] Mitsu
    And you can see for yourself how
    much better I've gotten since joining!
[09:47] Kirihito
    True. You're working hard.
[09:51] Mitsu
    It's not just me.
[09:52] Mitsu
    We're all grateful to you, Instructor.
[09:56] Mitsu
    Thank you very much.
[09:58] Mitsu
    I'm expressing gratitude
    on behalf of the team.
[10:01] Kirihito
    H-Hey, wh-what are you saying?
[10:04] Kirihito
    Idiot. Save that gesture for
    when we stand victorious.
[10:08] Kirihito
    We've got plenty more fights
    ahead of us. Sheesh.
[10:12] Mitsu
    Excuse me, Master.
[10:15] Mitsu
    Can we keep training for a little longer?
[10:18] Mitsu
    I'd like you to spar with him, too.
[10:23] Kirihito
    Wh-What do you mean?
[10:29] Kirihito
    Hey, now...
[10:30] Kirihito
    Don't go there.
[10:31] Kirihito
    Is this because I said I was envious?
[10:33] Kirihito
    You know about my condition.
[10:35] Kirihito
    I can't fight for more than 20 seconds.
[10:38] Kirihito
    I'm a defective sumo wrestler.
[10:40] Mitsu
    Of course I know all that.
[10:42] Mitsu
    But that's 20 whole seconds
    you can use to fight.
[10:46] Mitsu
    It's been bugging me for a while...

    as a reserve for the Inter High?

[10:55] Mitsu
    Even in our dojo, you haven't done any
    sumo since you fought Hinomaru-san.
[10:59] Mitsu
    Why is that?
[11:02] Kirihito
    That's what I'm willing to
    sacrifice to be an instructor.
[11:05] Kirihito
    Not listing myself as a team member
     shows how determined I am.
[11:09] Kirihito
    I swore I'd focus on being an
    instructor so you guys can win.
[11:13] Mitsu
    But you must still miss fighting.
[11:18] Mitsu
    That intense look in your eye when you
    watched the captain and Hinomaru-san fight...
[11:22] Mitsu
    That clenched fist...
[11:24] Mitsu
    Was that really just how
    you felt as an instructor?
[11:28] Kirihito
    What is this? What's this about?
[11:31] Kirihito
    Why are you trying to drag me into the ring?
[11:34] Kirihito
    You aren't chickening out and
    asking me to take your place, are you?
[11:39] Kirihito
    You know how I feel!
[11:42] Kirihito
    I don't deny that I miss the sumo ring.
[11:44] Kirihito
    But that's got nothing
    to do with the team!
[11:49] Mitsu
    Nothing to do with us?
[11:51] Mitsu
    How can you say that?
[11:54] Mitsu
    Before we're instructor and pupils,
[11:56] Mitsu
    we're all high-schoolers who love sumo!
[11:59] Mitsu
    I want to respect your decision
    to be an instructor.
[12:02] Mitsu
    But it's just not right!
[12:05] Mitsu
    Why do you have to sacrifice so much for us?
[12:09] Mitsu
    Don't carry it all on your shoulders!
[12:10] Mitsu
    We're not so unreliable that we need
    you to suppress yourself for us, Kirihito!
[12:18] Mitsu
    I'm not saying this out of pity.
[12:21] Mitsu
    Hinomaru-san got injured, right?
[12:24] Mitsu
    The same could happen to any one of us.
[12:27] Mitsu
    It'd be a weight off all our minds if we had
    a sixth team member we could rely on.
[12:34] Mitsu
    Of course, I don't want to give up
    my place on the team sheet.
[12:37] Mitsu
    I'll compete with you for it and make it mine.
[12:39] Mitsu
    So let's all practice sumo together!
[12:45] Kirihito
    I...
[12:46] Kirihito
    I...
[12:48] Shibakiyama
    Okay, get out here, Tsuji-kun.
[12:52] Kirihito
    Oh, no, I didn't mean...
[12:54] Kirihito
    I-I don't have a mawashi belt on...
[12:56] Shibakiyama
    Never mind. Come as you are.
[12:58] Shibakiyama
    I don't let just anyone spar with me.
[13:06] Kirihito
    Dammit all...
[13:11] Kirihito
    There's no way I could
    refuse an offer like that!
[13:19] Mitsu
    Spirit!
[13:23] Kirihito
    How can a nearly 50-year-old man
    headbutt so hard?!
[13:27] Kirihito
    Damn, I'm so nervous,

[17:28] Reporter
    Mongolian exchange students train
    side-by-side with Japanese wrestlers.
[17:33] Reporter
    They've produced many
    pro sumo wrestlers,
[17:35] Reporter
    but of course, the best known is...
[17:37] Reporter
    the current strongest yokozuna, Jino-zeki.
[17:41] Reporter
    He visited his old school and trained
    with the current team members.
[17:48] Reina
    He only spent a few seconds with shorty.
[17:51] Reporter
    Yokozuna Jino-zeki's
    attention was focused squarely
[17:55] Reporter
    on the strongest high
     school sumo wrestler:
[17:58] Reporter
    National treasure Dojikiri Yasutsuna,
    AKA Tennoji Shido-kun.
[18:02] Tennoji
    Hello, I'm the team's captain, Tennoji.
[18:05] Reporter
    My, you are big, aren't you?
[18:07] Reporter
    Are you really a high school student?
[18:08] Tennoji
    Oh, no, there will be plenty
    of people my size at nationals.
[18:13] Tennoji
    I'm the favorite to win
    my third individual title,
[18:15] Tennoji
    but it won't be easy.
[18:17] Tennoji
    Everyone there will be a rival.
[18:19] Kariya
    Talk about giving boring answers...
[18:22] Reporter
    You're so modest.
[18:24] Reporter
    But you've won every official match
    you've contested since entering high school.
[18:28] Reporter
    Tell us, what's your secret?
[18:31] Tennoji
    My secret?
[18:33] Tennoji
    I don't do anything special.
[18:36] Tennoji
    I'm not the son of a yokozuna,
[18:39] Tennoji
    or the younger brother of an ozeki.
[18:41] Tennoji
    If I had to pin down why, maybe it's because
    I love sumo more than anyone else.
[18:47] Tennoji
    I love sumo the most,
    and I train the hardest.
[18:53] Tennoji
    That's why I'm the strongest.
[19:02] Shunkai
    He's openly challenging the other
    high school sumo wrestlers.
[19:06] Shunkai
    His humility is authentic,
[19:08] Shunkai
    but under that dignified facade
[19:11] Shunkai
    is a demon.
[19:13] Shunkai
    I see.
[19:14] Shunkai
    He's shackled by being a high-school athlete,
[19:16] Shunkai
    but he has the unmistakable
    attitude of a yokozuna.
[19:20] Kirihito
    Just our luck.
[19:21] Kirihito
    Why did we have to compete in this era?
[19:24] Hinomaru
    No, you've got it all wrong.
[19:27] Hinomaru
    It's Tennoji's continued position
    at the top of the pile
[19:30] Hinomaru
    that has made those chasing him so strong.
[19:34] Hinomaru
    Without him, I wouldn't be where I am.
[19:37] Hinomaru
    So I'm grateful to him.
[19:39] Hinomaru
    Now, I'll take his head and become
    the strongest high school sumo wrestler!
[19:47] Hinomaru
    Just you wait, nationals.
[19:49] Hinomaru
    I'm coming for you with all I've got.
[20:47] Hinomaru
    Are you watching me?
