    You don't need to fight
    in the team tournament.
[00:06] Ozeki
    You're hurt, aren't you?
    We're not falling for it again!
[00:11] Hinomaru
    I'm fine! This is nothing.
[00:13] Ozeki
    Tsuji's calling a taxi right now.
[00:16] Ozeki
    You're going to the hospital.
[00:19] Ozeki
    You're not done yet, Ushio.
[00:22] Ozeki
    Your dream of joining the pro league
    may come true in the team tournament.

SIGN    Kanie Clinic
[02:11] Shibakiyama
    Hey, Doc! It's Shibakiyama!
[02:16] Kanie
    I heard you, I heard you...
[02:20] Kanie
    I've got a wretched hangover.
    Keep it down, will ya, Kaorucchi?
[02:26] Hinomaru
    I-Is this a good idea?
[02:40] Kanamori
    He... pushed me out of the ring?
[02:45] Sera
    It's not like he gave up on on strikes.
[02:48] Sera
    It's just that, now, Tenma's
    a national treasure at grappling, too.
[02:54] Announcer
    That concludes today's individual bouts.
[02:59] Announcer
    We will now begin the team
    tournament preliminary bouts.
[03:08] Kanie
    Ushio Hinomaru-kun, 15 years of age.
[03:14] Hinomaru
    This dump's even more
    rundown than my place.
[03:17] Kanie
    Only 152 cm tall?!
[03:19] Kanie
    That's tiny!
[03:20] Hinomaru
    As a matter of fact,
    I'm aiming at becoming a pro.
[03:24] Kanie
    Hey, kid, don't you know
    about the physical exam?
[03:27] Kanie
    You need to take your head out the clouds.
[03:30] Kanie
    I'm a busy man.
[03:31] Kanie
    Look at how sunny it is out there.
[03:34] Kanie
    Shine on, Mr. Sun.
[03:35] Kanie
    Blue sea... White, sandy beaches...
[03:37] Kanie
    And skin the color of wheat!
[03:40] Kanie
    Summer's calling out to me!
[03:46] Shibakiyama
    He's actually a very good doctor, honest.
[03:48] Kanie
    So that's how it is. See ya.
[03:51] Hinomaru
    E-Excuse me!
[03:52] Kanie
    Now what?
[03:54] Hinomaru
    Please! My team's waiting for me!
[04:04] Reina
    Our luck has stunk today.
[04:06] ---
    Devoted Souls are Victorious
[04:06] ---
    Kanazawa Kita High School
    Sumo Club
[04:07] Reina
    We drew last year's third-placed
    team in the first round.
[04:11] Chizuko
    And three of their current lineup
    took part in that tournament.
[04:16] Chizuko
    Including national treasure Hikage Tenma.
[04:20] Chizuko
    He'll be competing, too.
[04:23] Reina
    In other words, we're in serious trouble.
[04:27] Announcer
    For the next match, on the
    east side, Odachi High School.
[04:30] Announcer
    On the west side,
    Kanazawa Kita High School.
[04:33] Yuma
    Okay, go get ‘em!
[04:34] Announcer
    First bout: on the east side, Ozeki-kun.
[04:37] Ozeki
    Yeah!
[04:40] Announcer
    On the west side, Aizawa-kun.
[04:42] Guy
    Captain Aizawa!
[04:44] Guy
    Fight!
[04:46] Chizuko
    The "Swift Foot Pull": Aizawa Ryo.
[04:49] Chizuko
    Although he's not the biggest,
    he is captain of the formidable Kita High.
[04:53] Chizuko
    He's very skilled.
[04:58] Kanie
    I don't see any point in wasting my time.
[05:02] Hinomaru
    "Wasting"?
[05:03] Kanie
    Your team's up against
    Kanazawa Kita High first, right?
[05:07] Kanie
    Do you really think your team can win?
[05:16] Kanie
    Huh? What's this?
[05:18] Kanie
    Didn't you understand the question?
[05:20] Hinomaru
    Come to think of it,
    I guess they could lose...
[05:24] Kanie
    Huh?
[05:26] Hinomaru
    I wasn't worried about that in the slightest.
[05:31] Referee
    Spirit!
[05:46] Hinomaru
    I'll admit, it was a shock when he said
    I wasn't needed in the team tournament.
[05:51] Hinomaru
    It made me feel uneasy.
[05:53] Hinomaru
    But after hearing the captain out,
    and seeing the looks in their eyes...
[05:58] Hinomaru
    I suddenly felt oddly relaxed about it all.
[06:01] Hinomaru
    It's not about how they need my help
    or how they can't win without me.
[06:05] Hinomaru
    I just want to fight with them again.
[06:07] Hinomaru
    That's the only thing on my mind right now.
[06:15] Kanie
    Show me your arm.
[06:24] Kanie
    It'd be better for your sumo career in
    the long-term if you sat this one out.
[06:31] Kanie
    At least, that's what any doctor with
    an ounce of common sense would say!
[06:37] Kanie
    You're all so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed!
[06:41] Kanie
    Give me some of that exuberance!
[06:44] Kanie
    I've treated a lot of
    sumo wrestlers in my time.
[06:48] Kanie
    Some were too beat up to even get
    into the ring, but they still came to me.
[06:56] Kanie
    Treating your arm will be
    as easy as passing gas.
[06:59] Hinomaru
    Wh-What kind of room is this?!
[07:03] Shibakiyama
    I'm taken aback every time I see this room.
[07:05] Shibakiyama
    You should put some money
    toward fixing up your sign.
[07:09] Kanie
    The sign's fine.
[07:11] Kanie
    I still get plenty of patients.
[07:15] Kanie
    I'll make that arm of yours useful.
[07:20] Terahara
    I never expected Ozeki-kun to be so dominant.
[07:25] Kanamori
    It was partly due to the matchup,
    but he showed beating you was no fluke.
[07:30] Sanada
    He's looking even better
    now than he did then.
[07:33] Sanada
    I thought Onimaru's absence
    would weigh heavy on him,
[07:36] Sanada
    but it seems like it's only
    made him more determined.
[07:40] Sanada
    His expression and his technique
    are brimming with spirit.
[07:43] Sanada
    His face screams,
    "I'm Dachi High's captain!"
[07:46] Sanada
    Looks like your favorite fighter's up next.
[07:52] Announcer
    Second bout.
[07:53] Announcer
    On the east side, Gojo-kun.
[07:59] All
    Yuma-san!
[08:00] Hinomaru
    He was a delinquent before
    he joined the sumo club.
[08:04] Hinomaru
    But... his heart's in the right place.
[08:09] Referee
    Spirit!
[08:15] Reina
    He was ready for the two-handed strike!
[08:17] Chizuko
    That guy placed fourth
    in the Ishikawa tournament.
[08:19] Chizuko
    Sera Takumi is very strong.
[08:22] Sera
    I have to withstand
    Tenma's strikes every day!
[08:27] Sera
    Come on!
[08:30] Hinomaru
    He used to be the kind of delinquent
    that shouldn't even exist anymore.
[08:35] Hinomaru
    He was king of the mountain.
[08:38] Hinomaru
    But after fighting me and acknowledging
    his defeat, he bowed his head.
[08:43] Shibakiyama
    Humility is the key to improving.
[08:46] Shibakiyama
    That's what makes something crazy like
    combining sumo and karate possible.
[08:52] Hinomaru
    So I'm expecting great things from him.
[09:02] Sera
    He's so fast!
[09:03] Kanamori
    Rather than pushing him, his strikes
    are making the opponent bounce off.
[09:06] Kanamori
    Each blow is hitting him in a different way.
[09:10] Kanamori
    Even if he wanted to grab his hands,
[09:12] Kanamori
    the karate-like snapping is
    too fast for him to do so.
[09:15] Kanamori
    You shouldn't have let him
    get up a head of steam, Sera.
[09:19] Sera
    I've had enough of your little peashooter!

    Got 'im!
[09:43] Nishizato
    Yuma-san, that was awesome!
[09:45] Guy
    It looks like Kita High are down and out.
[09:47] Guy
    Some powerhouse they are!
[09:53] Terahara
    Both teams wanted to carve
    out a lead in the early bouts,
[09:58] Terahara
    so these two wins in a row are huge.
[10:00] Saenoyama
    Yes, but their opponent in the third bout...
[10:04] Saenoyama
    will be a much bigger challenge.
[10:08] Aizawa
    It's up to you, Tenma.
[10:12] Aizawa
    Not that I'm worried about
    how a national treasure will fare.
[10:16] Aizawa
    And I know you don't need a pep talk
    from such a pathetic captain.
[10:20] Aizawa
    But just let me say it, anyway.
[10:23] Aizawa
    Win, Tenma!
[10:27] Sera
    Dammit! I'm sorry, guys.
[10:33] Tenma
    Pathetic teammates...
[10:36] Tenma
    A national treasure who fails to
    become a high school yokozuna...
[10:40] Tenma
    A renowned school without a championship...
[10:44] Tenma
    We're here to change all that.
[10:49] Tenma
    Yone-san. Komori-san.
    Prepare for your bouts.
[11:00] Kanamori
    Watch closely, you guys.
[11:02] Kanamori
    You won't win nationals next year if you
    don't come up with a plan to beat this guy.
[11:07] Sada
    Which one are you talking about?
[11:11] Announcer
    Third bout.
[11:13] Announcer
    On the east side, Kunisaki-kun.
[11:17] Kanie
    A national wrestling champion?
[11:20] Kanie
    I see.
[11:21] Kanie
    But he's only been doing
    sumo for a few months, right?
[11:24] Kanie
    He's up against a national treasure!
[11:26] Hinomaru
    I don't like to bandy this word around,
[11:28] Hinomaru
    but there's simply no other
    way to describe his talent.
[11:34] Hinomaru
    He...
[11:39] Both
    Kunisaki Chihiro...
[11:42] Both
    ...is a genius.
[11:54] Chihiro
    He's got 20 centimeters on me.
[11:58] Chihiro
    This must be what it feels
    like to be Hinomaru.
[12:11] Chihiro
    How will you attack,
    national treasure Odenta Mitsuyo?
[12:18] Sanada
    At that distance, he's a sitting duck
    for the best striker in high school sumo.
[12:22] Sanada
    Is he going to start at a run and go in low?
[12:25] Kanamori
    Show me, Kunisaki.
[12:28] Kanamori
    Show me what your talent,
    which even Sada acknowledges,
[12:31] Kanamori
    can do against a national treasure.
[12:34] Referee
    Spirit!
[12:42] Mitsu
    How'd that strike reach him
    at the edge of the ring?
[12:44] Sera
    Did you think he couldn't reach you
    if you held back like that?
[12:47] Aizawa
    Nearly the entire sumo ring is in his range.
[12:50] Aizawa
    His speed and power are unmatched!

    take on a national treasure.
[13:12] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I know my sumo needs work if
    I want to become a better fighter.
[13:19] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I don't have time to get there on my own.
[13:22] (Flashback) Chihiro
    So...
[13:23] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I want to absorb your sumo style
    and soar straight to the top!
[13:37] Kirihito
    Yes!
[13:39] Sanada
    Was he holding off so he could
    evaluate Hikage's strikes?
[13:43] Sada
    He took a real pounding, though.
[13:45] Sada
    The best strikes in high school sumo
    were even fiercer than he was expecting.
[13:49] Sada
    Of course he had a rough time
    seeing through them.
[13:52] Kanamori
    Wait a second... He's completely
    copied your sumo style?!
[13:58] ---
    The longer you wrestle him,
    the creepier he starts to feel.
[14:03] Chihiro
    More...
[14:05] Chihiro
    Show me more!
[14:07] Sada
    His powers of observation more than make up
    for his lack of experience in the sumo ring.
[14:12] Sada
    That's the secret of how
    Kunisaki-san absorbs techniques.
[14:17] Sada
    I can't stand it.
[14:19] Sada
    I didn't make it past the
    prefectural prelims, and yet...
[14:23] Sada
    It's like it's me fighting.
[14:26] Tenma
    Mikazuki Munechika?
[14:28] Chihiro
    So this is the heaviest blow
    in all of high school sumo?
[14:32] Chihiro
    That means I no longer have anything to fear!
[14:37] Ozeki
    He outmaneuvered Odenta's strike!
[14:46] Yuma
    An over-the-shoulder belt-grab.
[14:48] Mitsu
    I can't believe he can reach!
[14:49] Kirihito
    But Kunisaki-san has the stronger stance!
[14:51] Kirihito
    He can do it!
[14:54] Tenma
    They're probably laughing at me again.
[14:56] Tenma
    I'm a national treasure,
    so they're expecting a lot from me,
[15:00] Tenma
    but here I am, losing to a guy who
    was a wrestler till a few months ago.
[15:05] Tenma
    I'm not really interested
    in watching my brother fight.
SIGN    Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium

[15:10] (Flashback) Tenma
    He'll win enough times.
[15:14] (Flashback) Tenma
    Of course, he won't beat a yokozuna, no way.
[15:16] (Flashback) Suzu
    Hey!
[15:17] (Flashback) Tenma
    All he cares about is
    maintaining his current rank.
[15:21] (Flashback) Tenma
    It's pathetic.
[15:23] (Flashback) Tenma
    If he doesn't care about getting
    better, he should just quit.
[15:27] (Flashback) ---
    Ow!
[15:28] (Flashback) Tenma
    That hurt! What was that for?!
[15:31] (Flashback) Suzu
    You don't know what you're talking about.
[15:34] (Flashback) Suzu
    I didn't think I'd hear his own
    brother repeating that tripe.
[15:40] (Flashback) Guy
    He's got no chance!
[15:42] (Flashback) Guy
    He won't win this bout!
[15:45] (Flashback) Guy
    I gave up rooting for Daikeisho.
[15:49] (Flashback) Guy
    "Strongest Japanese sumo wrestler," my ass.
[15:51] (Flashback) Guy
    He just isn't hungry enough!
[15:55] (Flashback) Tenma
    What's going on here?
[15:57] (Flashback) Suzu
    This place isn't as comfortable
    for the ozeki as you think.
[16:03] (Flashback) Tenma
    Even more reason, then.
    Why doesn't he just quit?
[16:07] (Flashback) Suzu
    Isn't that obvious?
[16:15] (Flashback) Suzu
    Because he isn't broken yet.
[16:23] (Flashback) Suzu
    Maybe the reason the ozeki
    looks broken to you
[16:28] (Flashback) Suzu
    is because you are.
[16:32] (Flashback) Suzu
    You've been looking away from your brother
    because you see yourself in him.
[16:37] (Flashback) Suzu
    You believe your brother
    can't beat a yokozuna
[16:39] (Flashback) Suzu
    because you can't beat Tennoji.
[16:43] (Flashback) Suzu
    Maybe you could learn
    a thing or two by watching him.
[16:47] (Flashback) Suzu
    Your brother's a strong man.
[16:51] Tenma
    I'm the pathetic one.
[16:54] Tenma
    Onimaru had that same look in his eyes.
[16:56] Tenma
    The look of someone who is confronting
    a reality that threatens to break them.
[17:03] Tenma
    All I did was get annoyed
    and take it out on others.
[17:06] Tenma
    I'm a real loser.
[17:09] Tenma
    I want to be a strong sumo
    wrestler like my brother!

    He's so close!
[17:29] Yuma
    Crap!

[18:07] Shunkai
    He has an incredibly sharp mind,
[18:09] Shunkai
    but he's not ready to beat Hikage Tenma.
[18:13] Shunkai
    Yet...
[18:15] Shunkai
    Perhaps that's why he challenged him.
[18:18] Shunkai
    Even in professional sumo,
[18:20] Shunkai
    there are those who evolve rapidly
    following an upset win.
[18:25] Shunkai
    He's trying to break out of his shell.
[18:27] Shunkai
    Just fighting him isn't enough.
[18:30] Shunkai
    Only an upset will take him
    to greater heights!
[18:32] Chihiro
    Strongest!
[18:35] Kirihito
    Yes!

    and his left is high!

    Go, Tenma!
[18:51] (Flashback) Sada
    You're working on the cross-grip sumo style.
[18:56] (Flashback) ---
    So why do you ignore
    the mawashi belt so much?
[19:00] (Flashback) Sada
    Honestly, I can't tell what
    you're thinking, which scares me.
[19:04] (Flashback) Chihiro
    All that thrust-and-push,
    cross-grip, whatever...
[19:07] (Flashback) Chihiro
    If I get caught up in
    worrying about that stuff,
[19:09] (Flashback) Chihiro
    I won't be able to beat
    specialists like you.
[19:15] (Flashback) Chihiro
    You're scared because you
    can't tell what I'm thinking?
[19:18] (Flashback) Chihiro
    That's perfect.

    I want my sumo style... to be unsettling!

    What's he doing?
[19:27] Tenma
    What is this dark aura?!

    I want to be stronger! Stronger!

    So... I'm going to... cause an upset!

    People who let common sense
    dictate their actions
[20:04] Hinomaru
    place a wall between themselves
    and national treasures.
[20:07] Hinomaru
    They believe national treasures are special,
    and there's no way they can beat them.
[20:12] Hinomaru
    But he doesn't have any walls.
[20:14] Hinomaru
    All he has is distance.
[20:17] Hinomaru
    That's why he can charge
    forward without fear.
[20:20] Hinomaru
    That's the kind of person
    who causes an upset.

    He must've moved purely on instinct.
[20:41] Yuma
    You're one scary dude.
[20:44] Kirihito
    It's a sumo technique,
    but one that defies the norms.
[20:48] Kirihito

    My national treasure name?
[20:55] (Flashback) Sada
    Yeah, man. If you beat a national treasure,
[20:58] (Flashback) Sada
    you should be one, too.
[21:00] (Flashback) Chihiro
    That's stupid.
[21:02] (Flashback) Chihiro
    National treasures are those guys

[21:11] (Flashback) Chihiro

[21:19] Chihiro
    Call me Kunisaki Chihiro,
    the "National Treasure Eater"!

    Ushio!
[23:19] Chihiro
    "The National Treasure Eater."
[23:20] Chihiro

[23:25] Chihiro
    National Treasure is Delicious!
