[00:03] Yuma
You said we were starting morning training
today, so I show up, and what do I find?
[00:07] Yuma
We're seaweed harvesting?!
[00:08] Hinomaru
Yuma, no slacking off!
[00:10] Kei
I-I can't take it!
[00:12] Ozeki
Mitsuhashi, get a hold of—
[00:14] Chihiro
Hey, man, keep our oceans clean.
[00:17] Kirihito
Come on, guys. Hiring this
boat cost money, remember.
[00:22] Yuma
Slave driver.
SIGN Bout 4
"Dachi High's Fifth Member"
[01:55] Kirihito
Okay, then. Let's get started.
[02:02] Ozeki
Ow... This is hard.
[02:06] Kirihito
There was a French artist...
[02:08] Kirihito
...by the name of Jean Cocteau
who called sumo "the art of balance."
[02:13] Kirihito
The basic idea of sumo is to
knock your opponent off balance.
[02:17] Hinomaru
I get it now.
[02:19] Hinomaru
This is going to strengthen
the muscles we use for balance.
[02:25] Kirihito
Correct.
[02:28] Chihiro
I knew that was your reason
for this boat trip all along!
[02:31] Chihiro
And the seaweed has something
to do with it too, doesn't it?
[02:35] Chihiro
You can grab the seaweed like this, is that it?
[02:38] Chihiro
Like grabbing a mawashi belt?
[02:42] Kirihito
The seaweed is not part of the training.
[02:44] Chihiro
Huh? Oh...
[02:48] Yuma
It's still morning, but I'm already beat.
[02:51] Chihiro
I'll just take a nice long nap during class.
[02:54] Hinomaru
You still remember that day, don't you?
[03:03] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Oh, you were in the arena today, Kirihito?
[03:06] Kirihito
I didn't see you compete, though.
[03:08] Kirihito
You drop out way too quickly.
[03:12] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Sorry about that.
[03:15] Hinomaru
Something wrong, Kirihito?
[03:19] (Flashback) Kirihito
Hey...
[03:20] Kirihito
Do you like sumo?
[03:22] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Of course I do!
[03:23] (Flashback) Hinomaru
I like it because I can use my yokozuna-style
sumo to win! That's what makes it fun!
[03:28] Hinomaru
You haven't won at all since
you started middle school.
[03:31] Hinomaru
Are you sure it's still fun?
[03:35] (Flashback) Kirihito
Yokozuna-style sumo is all well and good,
[03:37] (Flashback) Kirihito
but isn't there a more practical way?
[03:40] (Flashback) Kirihito
Just because you work hard, it doesn't
mean you'll be successful, Hinomaru.
[03:47] Hinomaru
Master Yamatokuni told me
basically the same thing.
[03:51] Kirihito
Master Yamatokuni? In your first year
at middle school, you mean?
[03:55] Hinomaru
Yeah.
[03:57] Hinomaru
I got a direct lesson
from that master yokozuna.
[04:02] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Okay. Now, show me some of your moves.
[04:05] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Yes, sir!
[04:06] (Flashback) Reporter
Isn't he last year's "young boy yokozuna"?
[04:09] (Flashback) Reporter
He's pretty small. Maybe
he hasn't grown since last year.
[04:13] (Flashback) Reporter
He hasn't been performing this year,
probably due to his size.
[04:18] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
You three...
[04:20] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Choose your words better.
[04:24] (Flashback) Hinomaru
I don't mind.
[04:26] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Even so...
[04:28] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Isn't it foolhardy to attack head-on
with your diminutive stature?
[04:34] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Master Yamatokuni, you yourself met
opponents head-on during your career.
[04:39] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
That is how I live.
[04:45] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Well, that goes for me, too.
[04:50] (Flashback) Hinomaru
I will wear another yokozuna belt.
[04:54] (Flashback) Hinomaru
If you want to laugh at me, go ahead!
[05:01] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Practice for three years from now.
[05:04] (Flashback) Hinomaru
Three years from now?
[05:07] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
Then, you can show me
[05:10] (Flashback) Yamatokuni
how you have chosen to live.
[05:13] Hinomaru
I haven't changed my mind one bit.
[05:16] Hinomaru
'Cause I'm pigheaded.
[05:17] Kirihito
You sure are, but it works for you.
[05:22] Kirihito
I prepared for this eventuality.
[05:28] Chihiro
Oh, yeah. I was curious,
so I did some research
[05:31] Chihiro
on how to get into professional sumo.
[05:34] Kei
Are you setting your sights
on becoming a sekitori?
[05:37] Chihiro
My goal is to be a mixed martial artist.
[05:40] Chihiro
Listen to this: "To become a pro, sumo wrestlers
must pass a physical entrance exam.
[05:44] Chihiro
The minimum height requirement is 167 cm."
[05:48] Kei
But that means...
[05:49] Ozeki
Yeah. No matter how hard he trains,
he can't make it into the pro league.
[05:56] Yuma
Is he pushing himself this hard
just because he likes sumo?
[06:02] Yuma
Where on earth does he get his motivation?
[06:09] Kirihito
I've laid out individual
training regimes for you all.
[06:12] Kirihito
I'd like you all to follow them to the letter.
[06:14] Ozeki
Individual training regimes?
[06:17] Kei
Um...
[06:19] Kei
You're taking part in the tournaments too,
aren't you, Tsuji-san?
[06:22] Kei
Shouldn't you be focusing
on your own training?
[06:29] Kirihito
I won't be competing in any bouts.
[06:31] Kei
Are you sure you want a beginner
like me on the team?
[06:33] Kei
I'm more than happy to do it, but...
[06:36] Yuma
You've done sumo before, haven't you?
[06:38] Yuma
If we want to maximize our chances of
winning, shouldn't you be competing, too?
[06:45] Yuma
Also, I don't like being ordered around by
someone who might not even be any good.
[06:49] Kirihito
What a pain.
[06:51] Yuma
What?!
[06:52] Kirihito
I'll show you by getting our rookie,
Mitsuhashi, to beat the lot of you.
[06:58] Kei
Wh-Wh-What are you saying?!
[07:00] Kei
That's not what I meant at all!
[07:02] Kirihito
Don't worry. Just do what I tell you.
[07:07] Chihiro
This guy's kinda arrogant, isn't he?
[07:09] Yuma
He's making fun of us.
[07:11] Yuma
I'm going to enjoy this.
[07:22] Kei
Not happening! I can't do this!
[07:28] Chihiro
Spirit!
[07:30] Yuma
Take this! And this! And that!
[07:33] Kei
His hands. Watch his hands!
[07:36] Kirihito
There!
[07:42] Kei
No way...
[07:45] Hinomaru
Nice work, Kei.
[07:47] Ozeki
He was waiting until
Yuma-san's feet were square on.
[07:51] Yuma
Dammit! What happened?!
[07:53] Kirihito
Shall I explain?
[07:57] Kirihito
Your weakness is your hand slaps.
[07:59] Kirihito
You put all of your strength into your
upper body, and your legs don't keep up.
[08:03] Kirihito
So simply moving out of the way
puts you off balance.
[08:05] Yuma
What?!
[08:06] Kirihito
Your normal sparring partner
is partly to blame.
[08:09] Kirihito
That idiot doesn't know how to pull away.
[08:15] Chihiro
He can't object when he's on the ground.
[08:18] Chihiro
Now, what lesson do you
have for me, professor?
[08:22] Kei
"Professor"?
[08:25] Kirihito
Mitsuhashi.
[08:29] Ozeki
He beat Yuma-san, but Kunisaki's
a national wrestling champion.
[08:34] Ozeki
What could his weakness be?
[08:36] Yuma
Spirit!
[08:40] Ozeki
A-An inside ankle sweep?
[08:44] Kirihito
Shall I explain?
[08:46] Chihiro
Yeah. If you would.
[08:48] Kirihito
Your footwork isn't where it needs to be.
[08:51] Kirihito
When you take a step, your foot isn't flat.
[08:54] Kirihito
Work on pointing your toes outward and
shuffling your whole sole when you move.
[08:58] Chihiro
Yes, prof.
[08:59] Yuma
Hey, Ozeki.
[09:01] Yuma
You'd better not lose.
[09:04] Ozeki
O-Okay.
[09:07] Hinomaru
Spirit!
[09:10] Ozeki
A leg grab?
[09:12] Ozeki
But I can push back.
[09:15] Kirihito
No, not like that. Closer to the ankle.
[09:17] Kei
Okay!
[09:22] Hinomaru
Wow.
[09:23] Kei
I did it!
[09:25] Ozeki
But... how?
[09:27] Kirihito
President, your legs and loins are strong,
[09:30] Kirihito
but your upper body is weak, correct?
[09:32] Kirihito
You didn't push him hard enough,
so you let him get in close.
[09:37] Yuma
This jerk knows everything about us...
[09:41] Chihiro
I get it. I see what you're saying.
[09:46] Chihiro
So basically,
[09:48] Chihiro
one needs to research their opponents and
take advantage of their weaknesses to win.
[09:51] Chihiro
But we're lacking in that department...
[09:53] Chihiro
The brains!
[09:58] Chihiro
Say something!
[10:01] Kirihito
No one who competes at national level
has weaknesses as obvious as yours.
[10:07] Kirihito
And why would they?
[10:08] Kirihito
They're experienced,
well-rounded sumo wrestlers.
[10:12] Kirihito
A team of beginners with only
a few months of slapdash training
[10:16] Kirihito
would struggle to pass
the Prefectural prelims.
[10:22] Kirihito
And that's why you have me.
[10:24] Kirihito
What I just showed you with the
help of Mitsuhashi aren't weaknesses.
[10:28] Kirihito
They are areas to improve.
[10:30] Kirihito
With the time we have left,
[10:33] Kirihito
we'll hone the weapons each
of you possess to a keen edge.
[10:36] Kirihito
Even if you aren't well-rounded,
you only need one killer move.
[10:39] Kirihito
Become specalist sumo wrestlers with one
move that can cut it in the national level.
[10:44] Ozeki
Specialist sumo wrestlers...
[10:46] Kirihito
Now, Hinomaru...
[10:50] Kirihito
I need to show you what you can improve.
[10:54] Kirihito
Come with me.
[10:55] Kirihito
Let's begin our bout.
[11:08] Chihiro
He's slim, but he definitely works out.
[11:11] Kei
So he is competing?
[11:15] Ozeki
I think they were in the same
elementary school sumo club.
[11:18] Ozeki
Hey, Hinomaru. Is Tsuji good?
[11:26] Yuma
I thought they were friends.
[11:29] Hinomaru
Are you sure, Kirihito?
[11:30] Hinomaru
I won't hold back in the ring.
[11:33] Kirihito
Maybe I don't make myself clear at times,
but you, on the other hand, talk too much.
[11:37] Kirihito
Who do you think you are? You need
to leave that attitude outside of the ring.
[11:42] Kirihito
Just so you know,
I'm using a leaf out of your book.
[11:45] Kirihito
I'll attack you head-on.
[11:46] Kirihito
Otherwise, you won't get
the point I'm trying to make.
[11:50] ---
Th-That's...
[11:51] Ozeki
...a spider stance!
[11:54] Chihiro
Can he even get up from a stance that low?
[11:57] Hinomaru
Fine by me.
[12:03] Chihiro
He's fast!
[12:04] Ozeki
He forced Hinomaru to make low contact
[12:07] Ozeki
and sealed off his charge!
[12:10] Kei
No way... How's he doing
so well against Hinomaru-san?
[12:17] Ozeki
He got him by the throat to force him off!
[12:21] Kirihito
Those are some heavy blows.
[12:23] Kirihito
Is this the yokozuna-style sumo
you've been striving for?
[12:26] Kirihito
But don't forget, Hinomaru:
[12:28] Kirihito
You can't call it yokozuna-style
sumo unless you win!
[12:32] Ozeki
He grabbed his arm to switch places!
[12:36] Chihiro
This guy's got some crazy technique!
[12:39] Ozeki
That's the right-handed
belt grip Ushio uses!
[12:43] Hinomaru
What do you think you're doing?
[12:45] Hinomaru
Are you inviting me to do it?
[12:48] Hinomaru
Have it your way. I'll do it!
[12:50] Hinomaru
Here comes three years' training!
[12:52] Yuma
He's going for it.
[12:53] Ozeki
Ushio's most powerful move!
[12:55] Hinomaru
A technique that combines
a throw with a turn!
[12:57] Hinomaru
Hundred demon takedown!

[13:01] (Flashback) Kirihito
Just because you work hard,
it doesn't mean you'll be successful.
[13:05] Kirihito
I still regret saying it.
[13:09] (Flashback) Kirihito
What I just said to him...
[13:11] (Flashback) Kirihito
He works much harder than anyone else,
[13:13] (Flashback) Kirihito
and that's all I can say to him?!
[13:17] Kirihito
I won't say it ever again.
[13:19] Kirihito
I've come up with a way
you can be successful.
[13:21] Kirihito
I won't let your hard work go to waste!
[13:25] Ozeki
They're both doing the
hundred demon takedown!
[13:27] Kirihito
I'll take your sumo that
couldn't defeat Kusanagi
[13:30] Kirihito
and make it a thing of the past!
[13:33] Ozeki
He's crazy! Ushio's way too strong!
[13:36] Kirihito
Take this, Hinomaru!
[13:38] Kirihito
This is your potential!
[13:40] Kirihito
A throw, a turn, and a little something extra!
[13:45] Kirihito
A triple combo technique!
[13:54] Hinomaru
Damn. It's been a while since
I was left staring at the ceiling.
[13:57] Kirihito
I take it... you don't need me... to explain.
[14:01] Kirihito
It's more than a simple throw...
and turn... It's three attacks... in one.
[14:07] Kirihito
That's... the one opportunity...
you've got left.
[14:11] Kei
So you're giving him
a decisive new technique?
[14:14] Chihiro
A triple combo does sound
stronger than a double combo.
[14:18] Hinomaru
That move's a real risk, though.
[14:21] Chihiro
Huh? Why?
[14:22] Ozeki
Of course it is.
[14:24] Ozeki
It's difficult enough combining two moves.
[14:27] Ozeki
But we're talking about three.
[14:29] Ozeki
And there's no coming back from it.
[14:31] Ozeki
If it doesn't work,
you're out of options.
[14:33] Yuma
So his final trump card is a huge gamble?
[14:37] Ozeki
Are you sure about this, Ushio?
[14:41] Hinomaru
Thanks, Kirihito.
[14:44] Hinomaru
I'll take that gamble.
[14:47] Kirihito
I once rejected your sumo,
[14:50] Kirihito
but truth is, I want to see more of it.
[14:53] Kirihito
I want to see you charge at
towering titans and floor them.
[14:57] Kirihito
That will be your own style of
yokozuna sumo: "Hinomaru sumo."
[15:03] Ozeki
"Hinomaru sumo."
[15:05] Kirihito
Okay, I'll leave the rest of you to tidy up.
[15:09] Chihiro
I guess this means you'll be
sitting on the bench, Hotaru.
[15:13] Kei
That... That was incredible!
[15:15] Kei
He's a coach, and a really
strong sumo wrestler, too!
[15:19] Kei
Dachi High might just become
the best sumo school in Japan!
[15:22] Kei
Oh, his glasses.
[15:23] Kei
Tsuji-san!
[15:26] Chihiro
Me, Hinomaru, and the prof
is three guaranteed wins!
[15:29] Chihiro
That's how we'll breeze through
the group competitions!
[15:31] Yuma
Hey, what about me?
[15:33] Hinomaru
Sorry to dampen the mood, but listen.
[15:39] Hinomaru
Kirihito can't compete
in group competitions.
[15:43] Kirihito
You've discovered... my secret.
[15:46] Hinomaru
His lungs are weak.
[15:49] Hinomaru
Sumo bouts only last a few seconds,
but they're super intense.
[15:53] Hinomaru
He can maybe last twenty seconds.
[15:56] Hinomaru
Kirihito is a sumo wrestler who
can only fight for twenty seconds.
[16:00] Kei
N-No...
[16:03] Kirihito
If I fight longer than twenty seconds...
[16:06] Kirihito
I drown.
[16:08] Kirihito
There's no way I could
last an entire tournament...
[16:11] Kirihito
where they... contest several bouts a day.
[16:14] Kirihito
I've cursed my fate...
[16:17] Kirihito
and lost the will to continue.
[16:19] Kirihito
I even went as far as quitting sumo.
[16:22] Kirihito
But then... I saw something.
[16:26] Kirihito
An idiot, mocked by fate like I am,
[16:29] Kirihito
who carried on fighting regardless.
[16:32] Kirihito
I'm pathetic.
[16:34] Kirihito
I like sumo, so what else is there to it?
[16:38] Kei
That's why you became a coach?
[16:41] Kirihito
Yeah.
[16:42] Kirihito
I want to help him succeed.
[16:45] Kei
Then, it's even more important!
[16:47] Kei
How can someone who's not even
standing at the starting line compete?
[16:52] Kirihito
No. You're a sumo wrestler now.
[16:57] Kirihito
I know what you've been
doing after practice.
[17:03] Kei
I-I'm just not able to do it
enough times during practice.
[17:07] Kirihito
Dachi High's fifth member...
[17:09] Kirihito
is you, Mitsuhashi.
[17:15] Chihiro
That's gotta be tough.
[17:17] Chihiro
Being unable to do sumo
because your body's too weak.
[17:20] Yuma
Hinomaru's in the same boat.
[17:24] Yuma
You can't be a pro at your height, right?
[17:27] Ozeki
Yuma-san!
[17:29] Yuma
If you already know that,
why do you train so hard?
[17:33] Kirihito
I'll tell you why.
[17:35] Kirihito
He doesn't meet the pro league requirements,
but there is a way he can join it.
[17:39] Yuma
What?
[17:41] Kirihito
The inter-high individual champion
is named the "high school yokozuna"
[17:45] Kirihito
and is invited to participate in the
All-Japan National Championships.
[17:49] Chihiro
The All-Japan National Championships?
[17:51] Ozeki
It's a tourney for amateur sumo wrestlers,
including college students and working adults.
[17:56] Ozeki
If you win it, you receive preference
and enter the Makushita division.
[18:00] Chihiro
Receive preference?
[18:02] Ozeki
Pro sumo has a preferential
system for incoming members.
[18:05] Ozeki
Normally, you'd start off unranked,
but the champion skips several divisions,
SIGN Yokozuna
SIGN Ozeki
SIGN Sekiwake
SIGN Komusubi
SIGN Maegashira
SIGN Juryo
SIGN Makushita
SIGN Sandanme
SIGN Jonidan
SIGN Jonokuchi
SIGN Sanyaku
SIGN Makuuchi
(42 Wrestlers)
SIGN Juryo (28 Wrestlers)
SIGN Sekitori
SIGN Makushita
and below
[18:08] Ozeki
and debuts in the Makushita division.
[18:11] Chihiro
I don't see how that satisfies
the height requirement.
[18:14] Ozeki
Uh, yeah, I was wondering that, too.
[18:16] Kirihito
Captain, did you read the rule in full?
[18:21] Kirihito
Amateur sumo wrestlers given preference
do not need to pass any physical exams.
[18:27] Ozeki
I see!
[18:29] Kirihito
To go down that route, Hinomaru must
become the high school yokozuna.
[18:37] Kirihito
Please, allow me to be your coach.
[18:41] Kirihito
I wish to help Hinomaru realize his dream!
SIGN Yamatokuni
Stable
[18:49] Kuze
Even though it was only practice, I competed
in a bout with someone from another school.
[18:53] Kuze
I knew it was contrary
to your wishes, Father.
[18:56] Kuze
Please forgive me.
[18:59] Yamatokuni
How did it feel?
[19:01] Kuze
I was reminded of how much I love sumo.
[19:06] Kuze
There are other opponents competing in high
school sumo that make me feel the same way.
[19:11] Kuze
I want to defeat them all, become
the top high school sumo wrestler,
[19:16] Kuze
and join the professional ranks.
[19:17] Kuze
I will wear my status as the son
of Yamatokuni like a badge of honor.
[19:22] Kuze
That is how I shall live.
[19:25] Yamatokuni
This is the first time you've
expressed your own desires.
[19:29] Yamatokuni
Live as you see fit.
[19:31] Kuze
Yes, sir.
[19:33] Yamatokuni
By the way, who was it that
excited such passion in you?
[19:38] Kuze
Ushio Hinomaru-kun.
[19:40] Yamatokuni
Hinomaru...
[19:46] Yamatokuni
I see... So he's been training
hard for the last three years...
[19:56] Ozeki
You can stop bowing now, Tsuji.
I understand how much this means to you.
[20:03] Kirihito
Kuze isn't the only
heavyweight you must defeat.
[20:05] Kirihito
Across the country, there are others
who bear national treasure monikers.
[20:09] Kirihito
Ishigami High School's
technically-gifted Sada Mizuki.
[20:12] Kirihito
Kanazawa Kita High School's giant,
Hikage Tenma.
[20:15] Kirihito
And...
[20:16] Kirihito
Tottori Hakuo's Tennoji Shido,
the strongest high school yokozuna in history.
[20:21] Yuma
There's that many?
[20:23] Chihiro
This is getting pretty exciting!
[20:25] Hinomaru
Cutting them all down to size
and wearing the belt of a yokozuna...
[20:29] Hinomaru
That was my goal.
[20:32] Yuma
"Was"?
[20:34] Hinomaru
I have a bigger goal now.
[20:37] Hinomaru
We're going to be the best team in Japan!
[20:41] Yuma
Who, us?
[20:43] Ozeki
Tsuji...
[20:44] ---
Yes?
[20:45] Ozeki
I'd like to make a formal request.
[20:47] Ozeki
Please become the coach of
the Dachi High sumo club!
[20:51] Ozeki
We've been relying on
Ushio to handle everything.
[20:54] Ozeki
But that's not good enough!
[20:56] Ozeki
Ushio being the best
in Japan won't satisfy us.
[20:59] Ozeki
We're all going to be the best in Japan!
[21:01] Ozeki
Please help us to achieve that aim!
[21:04] Hinomaru
Captain...
[21:08] Kirihito
You'd best be prepared for hell
starting tomorrow.
[21:11] Yuma
B-Bring it on.
[21:13] Kei
I'll do my best!
[21:14] Kirihito
Then, we'll be harvesting seaweed again.
[21:17] Kei
Just remembering it makes me want to...
[21:20] Yuma
Don't hurl in the ring, Hotaru!
[22:57] Yuma
This isn't chankonabe stew.
[22:58] Yuma
It's just seaweed soup.
[23:00] Hinomaru
Eating as a team makes
everything taste great!
[23:02] ---
Delicious!
[23:03] Kei
I've been wondering... Whose cat is that?
[23:07] Ozeki
Oh, he's just been hanging around here lately.
[23:10] Hinomaru
His name's Chanko!
[23:12] Yuma
You just made that up!
[23:16] Kei
He likes you.
[23:18] Kirihito
So it seems.
[23:20] Chihiro
Chanko!
[23:24] Kei
He doesn't like you.
[23:26] Kirihito
So it seems.
