[00:09] Konomi
You solve a wall as
though it were a puzzle.
[00:13] Konomi
That's the sport of climbing.
[00:17] Comms
Japan's Noguchi Akiyo has two minutes left.
[00:21] K
How will you choose to climb?
[00:23] Comm
She takes another look at the wall.
[00:25] Comm
What adjustments will she make?
[00:27] K
You set your mind to the task...
[00:36] K
Clearing one obstacle at a time,
thinking ahead, and doing it your way is fun.
[00:41] K
But the best feeling of all
[00:44] K
is the one you get when you solve
that puzzle and reach the goal.
[00:51] Comm
Noguchi Akiyo sends the route with ease!
[00:55] Comm
Next up is another Japanese entrant,
[00:58] Comm
Kasahara Konomi!
SIGN Iwakakeru!
[02:56] K
Hmm... I'd better pick a club
to join soon, but...
[03:00] K
I just don't know what I wanna do.
[03:02] K
Anyone who does has probably
joined one already.
[03:07] K
I'm, uh, probably not cut out
for any of the cultural clubs.
[03:12] K
Which leaves...
[03:13] K
The sports teams?
[03:15] G
Let me hear your voice!
[03:16] G
Yeah!
[03:18] G
One, two!
[03:18] G
One, two!
[03:19] G
Three, four!
[03:20] G

[03:22] G

[03:24] K

[03:24] G

[03:25] G
One more time!
[03:28] K
What now?
SIGN Wall 1: Rocky Puzzle
[03:45] K
This looks fun.
[03:49] Jun
Hands off!
[03:50] K
Huh? U-Uh, sorry!
[03:52] J
Didn't you see the notice?
Only members can touch the wall.
SIGN No touching the walls unless
you're a member ♥ - Climbing Team
[03:56] K
O-Oh... Sorry about that.
[04:00] K
I haven't touched anything yet.
[04:24] J
Interested?
[04:27] J
Come with me.
[04:29] K
Hey, wait!
[04:32] K
Uh...
[04:33] J
Do you have any sport climbing experience?
[04:36] K
Huh? Sport... what?
[04:38] J
I have to start there?
[04:40] J
Sport climbing involves scaling
artificial rock faces like these
[04:45] J
in three schools of competition:
bouldering, lead, and speed.
[04:50] J
It's a competitive form of rock climbing.
[04:53] K
Boulder in?
[04:55] K
Lead? Speed?
[05:00] J
Anyway, just try climbing it for now.
[05:04] K
Oh, okay.
[05:06] K
Uh, feels like I've joined on trial already.
I don't know about this...
[05:11] K
I've never done any climbing before.
[05:18] J
Not happening, huh?
[05:26] K
Whoa, this is actually pretty fun!
I'm getting higher and higher!
[05:30] K
Okay, which one next?
[05:35] K
I can't reach it!
[05:39] K
Well, then...
[05:44] J
Did you just try a lunge?
[05:48] K
A lunge?
[05:49] J
It's a dynamic move where you jump to grab
a hold that's out of your reach.
[05:54] J
Dynos are advanced techniques that
beginners could never pull off.
[05:58] K
Advanced, huh?
[06:00] J
So, are you gonna keep going?
[06:02] K
Oh, yeah. Climbing is pretty fun.
[06:05] J
"Pretty"?
[06:06] K
Also, this might be right up my alley!
Maybe I have a natural gift for this?
[06:13] J
Okay. This time...
[06:14] J
Try climbing using only the yellow holds.
[06:17] K
Got it!
[06:21] J
The different hold colors
indicate a route's difficulty.
[06:24] J
Yellow is for beginners, by the way.
[06:26] K
Beginners?!
[06:29] K
This rock has lousy grip.
[06:32] K
It's too slippery.
[06:34] K
And the foothold's too tiny!
[06:44] J
Is it any fun?
[06:46] J
Plenty of people try
rock climbing out of curiosity.
[06:51] J
They mistake it for one of those
playthings at a park or something.
[06:54] J
Sport climbing ain't a game, y'know.
[06:57] K
S-Sorry.
[06:59] J
Are you satisfied now?
[07:22] K
Let me have another go.
[07:26] Nonoka
Is Jun going to be our only new member?
[07:30] Sayo
Looks like it.
[07:32] N
It was just last year that you
and I formed this team, Sayo-chin.
[07:35] N
We were the only ones in it, too.
[07:37] N
I was hoping we'd get a whole
bunch of new members this year!
[07:41] S
Oh, we'll be fine.
[07:42] S
Jun has experience,
and we have three members now.
[07:45] S
We can officially compete as a team.
[07:48] N
Jun's such a hardass. She doesn't let anyone
join for fun 'cause they won't last.
[07:52] S
Well, you know she's right.
[07:58] S
What are you doing?
[08:00] N
But there's still a chance people might join!
[08:03] S
That's true.
[08:05] N
I'm trying to look more
dignif-eyed for the newbies.
[08:10] S
It won't work, Nono.
That facade will slip soon enough.
[08:14] N
Look, Sayo-chin,
first impressions are everything.
[08:19] J
Yeah. Use your right hand to grab hold.
[08:28] N
Who's that girl?
[08:30] J
Oh, Captain and Nono-senpai.
[08:33] N
Is that your friend?
Is she an experienced climber?
[08:36] J
No, she's a total beginner who
just picked it up moments ago.
[08:40] J
She couldn't even handle a 5.9 at first,
[08:44] J
but I gave her pointers each
time she fell, and here we are.
[08:47] N
Wait, isn't that hold she's on now a 5.11?!
[08:51] J
Yeah. She's actually climbing an
intermediate route with those twigs for arms.
[08:56] S
That isn't anything to be surprised about.
[08:58] S
What matters is adjusting
your body to the holds.
[09:01] S
You only need enough arm and grip strength
to handle your weight with both arms.
[09:07] S
Your mentality is far more important—
[09:09] S
whether you find pleasure in
solving routes decides everything.
[09:11] K
Okay, I get it now!
[09:14] K
I just need to use my first knuckles
for the slightly curved rocks,
[09:19] K
and I deal with tiny
footholds with my toes.
[09:23] K
Each hold in climbing has a "right"
way to maneuver your body.
[09:27] K
There is a solution for everything!
[09:29] K
And this is a game where you look for them...
[09:32] K
Yeah, this is a puzzle made up of rocks!
[09:41] J
Is she thinking of trying another lunge?!
[09:43] J
No way she can do it at that angle!
[09:49] K
I made it!
[09:55] K
Aw, it didn't work.
[10:00] K
Oh, I wouldn't have needed to jump
if I'd placed my foot there.
[10:06] K
Please let me climb one more time.
[10:09] S
You should take a break.
[10:12] S
Your arms need to rest.
[10:15] S
I'm Yotsuba Sayo, the captain.
[10:18] N
And I'm Sugiura Nonoka.
[10:21] N
Nice to meetcha.
[10:22] N
This here is Jun. She's a first-year, like you.
[10:26] K
A first-year?!
[10:28] S
And you are?
[10:29] K
Oh, uh... I'm Kasahara Konomi, a first-year.
[10:34] S
All right, Konomi-san.
You want to join, don't you?
[10:37] S
Welcome to the Hanamiya High
Climbing Team.
[10:40] K
Yes! Thanks for having me!
[10:44] N
Hooray! Now we have four members!
[10:47] N
Double last year! Double!
[10:50] S
You had a wonderful look
on your face, Konomi-san.
[10:53] S
I trust you enjoyed climbing?
[10:55] K
I did.
[10:56] K
It was super fun trying to figure out all
the different ways to climb this wall.
[11:01] K
I wanted to clear this thing like a game!
[11:04] J
A game?!
[11:05] J
So you don't understand a thing!
[11:08] J
I told you, these aren't playthings!
[11:11] K
I know. I wasn't implying that.
[11:13] J
If you...
[11:15] J
If you really wanna take up sport climbing,
if you want to join this team,
[11:20] J
you'll have to beat me in a race to do it.
[11:22] K
What? Beat you?
[11:25] N
There she goes again.
And there goes another potential member.
[11:29] K
W-Wait, beat you? I've never
even done this before.
[11:33] K
That was my first time.
I don't even think I'm doing it right.
[11:36] K
There's no way I can just beat you in a race!
[11:40] J
Duh. That's why I'll give you a handicap.
[11:43] J
Use your head a little.
[11:45] K
Uh, but...
[11:48] J
Don't you wanna join the team?
[11:53] N
Hey, shouldn't we stop them?
[11:56] S
Hmm...
[11:57] K
Uh, I'm not sure why we're doing this,
[12:01] K
but she seems serious about it.
[12:03] K
She seriously wants to compete with me,
someone she barely even knows.
[12:08] K
I have to respond to her challenge
in kind and take this seriously, too.
[12:14] K
I understand. Let's do this.
[12:19] S
The race will be tomorrow, then.
We need to get things ready.
[12:23] K
Got it.
[12:27] S
Since you two will be racing,
[12:30] S
we set up two identical walls for you to climb.
[12:33] S
The rules are simple.
Whoever sends the route first wins.
[12:36] S
However, Jun will have to do it on sight.
[12:39] K
On sight?
[12:41] S
She won't get any time to observe the route.
[12:43] S
Also, her start will be
delayed by two minutes.
[12:46] J
Got it.
[12:47] S
And, as much as it pains me, Konomi-san,
you can't join if you lose.
[12:52] K
Okay.
[12:53] J
And if I lose, I'll quit the team.
[12:56] K
Huh? You don't have to!
[12:57] J
What, do you seriously think you'll win?
[13:02] J
If you're hesitating, get lost.
[13:04] J
I'm not about to race a girl
who's not here to win.
[13:07] K
I'll give it my all, so I can join the team.
[13:10] S
Okay, let's begin.
[13:12] N
Either way, we're not getting
more than one new member?
[13:15] S
Begin observation!
[13:19] K
Not many holds, so it's not about
following one color this time.
[13:22] K
But this makes things simpler.
[13:25] N
Don't you think these terms are just sad?
[13:28] N
Also, why does Jun's hardass mode
seem even worse than usual?
[13:32] S
Does it?
[13:34] S
Konomi-san, begin.
[13:41] Bo
A foot swap!
[13:43] S
For a beginner, she sure
has the basics down pat.
[13:47] N
Her body must be supple,
[13:49] N
but I think she's being a bit slow.
[13:52] S
Two minutes passed. Jun, you may begin.
[14:01] N
So quick!
[14:02] S
There's no hesitation in
her moves. That's our Jun.
[14:05] S
Once she gets a good read on the route,
she's faster than anyone.
[14:08] N
She's going to be Hanamiya's speedster!
[14:15] J
Climbing's not just a game.
[14:18] J
You can't treat it as one.
[14:20] J
Practice, technique, and experience
make all the difference in this sport.
[14:25] J
I won't let you take it lightly
just because you aren't useless at it!
[14:30] J
I've had nothing but climbing on
my mind ever since I was little.
[14:33] J
I had no interest in anything else.
[14:36] J
I kept trying to climb higher, climb better,
[14:41] J
kept pushing myself toward loftier goals,
[14:45] J
and cleared each new hurdle
in my way one step at a time.
[14:48] J
I loved doing it, and it gave
me a wealth of experience.
[14:53] J
I live in a world beginner's
luck can never reach.
[14:57] K
I can't join the team if I lose?
[14:59] K
That's so absurd. I don't
even have any experience.
[15:02] K
But I'd hate to lose this game nonetheless.
[15:06] K
Video games were my life.
[15:09] K
I had no interest in anything else.
[15:11] K
I even won several puzzle game championships.

[15:16] K
But if I'd kept at it,
SIGN Ranking
SIGN 498th out of 512
[15:18] K
I wouldn't have made it into any
high school, let alone my preference.
[15:21] K
I'd have ended up as a person who
couldn't do anything but game.
[15:25] K
I thought, "I need to change!
I need to move on from games!"
[15:29] K
I crammed like crazy and
somehow made it into Hanamiya.
[15:34] K
And once I started high school, I wanted
to find something new to immerse myself in.
[15:40] K
I've found it now!
Sport climbing can be my obsession!
[15:45] J
A girl who tried climbing
out of curiosity and found it "fun"
[15:49] J
could never understand what
this sport is really about.
[15:52] K
I obviously can't win this race. I only
tried climbing for the first time yesterday.
[15:56] K
But I'm still gonna give this
race everything I've got!
[16:00] J
My victory is assured. I've given
sport climbing everything I've got.
[16:04] J
You'll see the difference that makes.
[16:07] S
What's wrong, Nonoka?
[16:10] N
You know...
[16:11] N
Watching them climb all fired up
[16:15] N
is making me wanna climb so bad!
[16:18] N
My body's moving on its own!
[16:21] S
What in the world?
[16:23] S
We're here to oversee their race.
[16:26] S
Besides, what happened to acting
like a dignified senior?
[16:29] N
Urk. Sayo-chin... She's such
perfect captaincy material.
[16:36] N
A heel hook... At least her
body knows what it wants.
[16:39] S
Oh? Konomi-san took the left route.
[16:47] J
She took the left route?
[16:50] J
I thought she'd be better
than that, but I guess not.
[16:55] J
This wall splits into two separate
routes at the center hold.
[16:59] J
The route to the left appears to have
several easy holds but, in the middle,
[17:04] J
it has a massive gap between two holds.
[17:07] J
Captain... You sure set one nasty problem.
[17:11] N
Sayo-chin, is Konomi-chan
gonna be okay on that route?
[17:18] K
Yeah, I knew it.
[17:20] K
This wall is forked, and the route
I picked is easier to climb.
[17:25] K
But...
[17:27] K
That rock up there will be hard to reach.
[17:43] J
Wha...
[17:44] N
She's laybacking?!
[17:45] S
Wow, that girl...
[17:50] K
Almost there...
[17:56] K
Got it! I cleared the most difficult hurdle!
[17:59] J
She actually managed to
solve that complex crux?
[18:02] S
That confirms it.
[18:04] S
Konomi-san's eyes have the ability
to pick out the right moves.
[18:08] S
Given just how many
permutations are possible,
[18:11] S
it's highly difficult to zero in
on the correct sequence of moves.
[18:15] S
Normally, you'd need to scale countless walls
[18:17] S
and build up experience to develop
that skill, but she has it.
[18:21] S
Konomi-san... What exactly is your deal?
[18:26] K
It's going well.
[18:27] K
I've been able to climb exactly
as I envisioned at the start.
[18:33] J
Wait, this hold...
[18:34] J
Did I mess up my routing?
[18:37] N
Jun's really slowed down.
[18:40] S
That route has a bunch of
awkward holds toward the top.
[18:44] N
Konomi-chan's catching up!
[18:50] J
Why, that little...
[18:51] K
I can do this!
[18:53] S
The two routes converge toward the same goal.
[18:56] S
The holds become identical along the way, too.
[18:59] J
I won't lose! That can't happen!
[19:02] K
I can climb all the way up to the goal.
[19:05] K
I can 100% this!
[19:08] K
Goal!
[19:21] N
A-A tie?!
[19:23] S
No. It was close,
[19:25] S
but Jun got there first.
[19:34] S
Jun has won the race.
[19:37] K
Right.
[19:39] K
Aw, I lost.
[19:41] K
Not really surprising, but...
[19:45] K
I can't join the climbing team now.
[19:51] J
That girl...
[19:54] K
I know a deal's a deal,
but I wanna keep climbing more.
[20:00] J
Hey!
[20:02] J
You...
[20:09] J
You solved a crux that I couldn't solve.
[20:13] J
Next time!
[20:15] J
Next time, I'll win by a huge margin!
[20:18] J
Our battle will continue until then!
[20:20] J
So, make sure you work on your skills
[20:23] J
as part of our team!
[20:26] K
You mean I can join?
[20:29] J
Yeah, if you want to.
[20:31] K
Thanks, Jun-chan!
[20:33] J
"Jun-chan"?!
[20:34] J
Look, I don't mind how you talk to
me since we're both first-years,
[20:36] J
but why call me that?
[20:37] K
I don't know your full name.
[20:39] J
Uehara Jun!
[20:40] K
Uehara-chan, then.
[20:41] J
You what?!
[20:43] S
Hey, you two.
[20:44] S
Good race.
[20:45] N
Well done.
[20:46] S
Sorry you had to deal with Jun's
little hazing ritual, Konomi-san.
[20:50] J
Hazing?!
[20:51] S
I also wanted to see what
you were capable of, though.
[20:55] S
Is it true you've never climbed before?
[20:58] K
It is.
[20:59] S
Your body seems really flexible.
Did you practice anything before?
[21:03] K
O-Oh, I did ballet when I was little.
[21:06] N
No wonder!
[21:08] S
Also, the way you lay out
your moves is very precise.
[21:12] S
It's almost like you're a veteran.
[21:14] S
Why is that?
[21:15] K
Huh? Er...
[21:17] K
Probably because I was a
gamer back in middle school.
[21:21] All
A gamer?
[21:22] K
Yes. A hardcore one.
[21:24] All
Hardcore?
[21:25] K
Yeah.
[21:26] K
I don't know if that's why,
but I came to see these walls as a puzzle.
[21:30] K
Working through the different
combinations was really satisfying
[21:33] K
and making steady progress was super fun!
[21:36] S
Excellent. You'll do perfectly.
[21:39] S
You'll make a trusty fourth member and help
our bid to win the upcoming competition.
[21:44] K
Sure! I'll do my best...
[21:46] K
Wait, a competition?
[21:48] S
Correct.
[21:49] K
I have so much to learn, though.
[21:51] K
When is this competition?
[21:54] S
Tomorrow.
[21:56] K
Tomorrow, eh?
[21:59] K
What?!
[22:00] K
Tomorrow?!

She's won several international competitions,
making her the sport's wunderkind.
[00:59] N
She's climbing's #1 heartthrob!
How I want to be her!
[01:02] K
You want to be that?
[01:04] J
Well, she is highly skilled.
[01:07] S
That she is.
[01:09] S
Anyway, we have the Spring
Climbing Championships tomorrow.
[01:12] S
Let's do our best to bring
it home for Hanamiya.
[01:15] N
Yeah!
[01:18] S
Am I going deaf? I can't hear you.
[01:20] N
Let's do this thing!
[01:22] J
Y-Yeah...
[01:23] K
Yeah, let's do it.

[03:02] Pa
Welcome to the Chiba Spring
Climbing Championships.
[03:05] Pa
Today, we have the lead competition.
[03:07] K
There they are.
[03:10] Chinari
This is your first competition, isn't it?
[03:14] Chinari
No need to be afraid.
[03:16] Chinari
Everyone here is a
bird of the same feather.
[03:18] Chinari
But you... You seem different.
[03:23] Chinari
I get the feeling you'll be very amusing.
[03:27] Chinari
Don't be nervous, now.
[03:29] N
Hey, Iwamine!
[03:31] N
Keep your legs off our newbie!
[03:33] Chin
It's been too long, Nono-chan.
I'm glad to see you're as cute as ever.
[03:37] S
Did you get the
wrong address, Iwamine-san?
[03:41] S
I'm pretty sure Kurikawa High
isn't in this region.
[03:44] Chin
Oh, this is very much the right place.
[03:46] Chin
I'm here to see the oh-so-adorable
looks on your faces when you fall.
[03:53] N
Too bad for you! I'm gonna
send everything in my way!
[03:57] Chin
I wouldn't mind that, either.
[03:58] Chin
I love seeing your face
overcome with joy, too.
[04:02] Chin
Toodles.
[04:03] N
I never wanna see your face again!
[04:04] K
Who was that, Jun-chan?
[04:07] J
Iwamine Chinari. Runner-up in lead
at the All-Japan Invitationals last year.
[04:10] K
Wait, her?! Number Two in Japan?
[04:13] J
Yeah, her. Her skill is the real deal.
[04:16] J
By the way, the captain was the winner.
[04:18] K
What? Wow!
[04:20] K
A-And I'm on her team?
[04:23] K
I'm starting to get even more nervous...
[04:23] N
You'll be fine!
[04:25] N
Just relax and leave everything to us.
[04:28] S
Hanamiya is unmatched in this zone.
[04:30] J
Our captain is the reigning individual champion,
[04:33] J
and Nono-senpai was the runner-up.
[04:35] K
It was a one-two finish for Hanamiya?
[04:37] S
Individual goes without saying,
[04:40] S
but we're also looking to be
the champion team this year.
[04:42] K
The champion team...
[04:44] N
We were the only members last year.
[04:46] N
Even a one-two finish wasn't enough.
[04:49] S
Team rankings are based on the
top three individual scores.
[04:54] N
And this year, we have four members!
[04:57] S
Of course, that means your result
will matter a lot, Konomi-san.
[05:00] K
My result matters?
[05:02] N
Konomin, you'll be fine
as long as you observe.
[05:05] J
What route will you take?
Which moves will you use?
[05:08] J
Making the right game plan
will make all the difference.
[05:13] K
Uh, I only climbed for the
first time yesterday...
[05:15] S
Jun's absolutely right.
Top climbers conquer walls twice.
[05:20] S
Once on sight, and once with their bodies.
[05:23] N
You can do it, Konomin.
[05:25] S
Konomi-san?
[05:26] S
Konomi-san!
[05:27] S
Let's enjoy this, okay?
[05:29] K
O-Okay...
[05:32] Pa
Hang in there!
SIGN Zonal High School Spring Climbing Championships
[05:33] J
Like I told you yesterday,
[05:35] J
lead climbing involves clipping ropes
into carabiners anchored to the wall.
[05:39] K
We're competing on how high we can
go within the allotted time, right?
[05:43] J
Yeah. The prelims have two problems: A and B.
[05:46] J
The time limit is six minutes each.
[05:49] J
If you fall, you're done.
[05:51] K
No retries, huh?
[05:53] J
Nono-senpai's up.
[05:55] Pa
Next up is the first climber
from the powerhouse Hanamiya Girls',
[05:57] Pa
Sugiura Nonoka!
[05:59] Pa
She's starting the prelims with Problem B.
[06:02] J
Watch her attempt closely.
[06:11] K
Say, Jun-chan.
[06:13] K
Don't shorter people have
a disadvantage in climbing?
[06:17] J
They do, but they can compete just fine
if they have something to cancel it out.
[06:27] N
Whoo! A pied à main makes
the hip joint feel so good!
[06:32] N
Now...
[06:33] J
Flexibility is one of the most important
traits you can have in climbing.
[06:37] J
Having a supple body
opens up a lot of options.
[06:41] N
Flexy Nonoka explodes up the wall!
[06:44] N
How d'ya like that?
[06:46] Pa
Sugiura successfully sends Prelim Problem B!
[06:49] K
Wow, Nono-san!
[06:50] Pa
Meanwhile, last year's champion,
[06:51] J
Captain's starting with Problem A.
[06:52] Pa
Hanamiya Girls' Yotsuba Sayo,
is starting with Problem A!
[07:00] S
From this thin hold,
[07:02] S
I make two moves to that
easy one and take a rest.
[07:05] S
After that, I clip my rope
to that carabiner...
[07:08] K
Wow. Her movements are so pretty.
[07:11] J
Right?
[07:12] J
She has a clear vision of
how to solve this problem.
[07:15] Pa
Yotsuba sends the problem with
three whole minutes remaining!
[07:19] Pa
The Princess of Lead does it again!
[07:20] Pa
Was this problem too easy for her?
[07:25] S
That's one down.
[07:27] N
Welcome back, Sayo-chin.
[07:29] J
Well done.
[07:30] K
Wow. Both Nono-san and the
captain were amazing.
[07:34] K
And I'm on their team.
[07:39] K
I'm gonna go for it, too... I have to!
[07:43] K
I'll be attempting Problem A first.
[07:46] K
I've gotten a decent read
on most of the holds.
[07:49] K
All that's left is...
[07:50] Akane
Let me guess.
[07:51] Akane
You're thinking about how to
get past that furmidable crux?
[07:55] Akane
Are you a first-year? Is this
your first lead competition?
[07:59] ---
Ah, yes.
[08:00] Ak
Oh, sorry. I'm Uchimura Akane
from Matsuhashi High.
[08:05] Ak
And you?
[08:06] K
I'm Kasahara Konomi.
[08:09] Ak
Konomi-chan, huh?
[08:10] Ak
It's a pawleasure to meet you!
[08:11] Ak
So, that crux looks difficult.
[08:14] Ak
It needs some kind of jump,
like a lunge or a double dyno.
[08:19] Ak
Look.
[08:19] Ak
There's a bunch of chalk on top of that hold.
[08:22] Ak
Looks like we have to get our hands up there.
[08:24] K
You have to jump for that crux?
[08:27] K
But I was thinking...
[08:30] Ak
Are you feeling a ton of purressure?
[08:34] Ak
I've seen so many girls wilt
under it and quit climbing.
[08:40] Ak
If that happened to you,
it would be a cat-astrophe.
[08:42] Ak
Let's both do our best to send the problem!
[08:47] K
Yeah!
[08:49] G
Kasahara-san from Hanamiya Girls'?
[08:52] G
Please get ready.
[08:53] K
Oh, okay.
[08:55] K
Thank you, Akane-san.
[08:57] Ak
Don't mention it. See mew later!
[09:02] Pa
Next up, making her debut,
Kasahara Konomi from Hanamiya Girls'!
[09:06] K
It's time.
[09:08] N
Konomin!
[09:10] J
Good luck!
[09:10] S
Konomi-san!
[09:12] K
They're cheering me on!
[09:15] K
I need to live up to their expectations!
[09:19] Pa
Kasahara's climbing rapidly
using dynamic moves!
[09:24] J
What's she doing?
[09:26] S
Why is she doing all these jumps?
[09:29] S
Her analytic skills are supposed
to be her biggest asset.
[09:33] S
She's going to run out of gas like this.
[09:39] K
Is it because I'm in an official competition?
I can't generate enough power.
[09:42] K
But I'm part of the Hanamiya
Climbing team, too.
[09:47] K
I can't let a crux, a problem
like this, beat me!
[09:50] J
What is that idiot thinking?!
[09:56] Pa
Whoa, Kasahara has fallen!
[10:01] J
Hey, what happened to you?
[10:03] N
Are you okay, Konomin?
[10:05] J
You were climbing kinda strange.
[10:08] N
You must've been nervous because
it's your debut competition.
[10:12] J
That girl...
[10:13] N
It happens! It still happens to me, even!
[10:18] K
Sorry, Jun-chan.
[10:20] J
Huh? Why are you apologizing to me?
[10:22] K
I'm representing the
Hanamiya Climbing Team...
[10:25] J
Since yesterday, yeah.
[10:27] K
Yeah.
[10:28] J
Hey, did a girl from another school
put strange ideas in your head?
[10:33] J
The one who speaks in obnoxious cat puns.
[10:36] J
I knew it.
[10:38] J
That jerk's still a disgrace to climbing.
[10:44] K
Sorry.
[10:45] J
You have nothing to apologize for!
[10:47] K
But I'm supposed to be representing
the amazing Hanamiya team.
[10:52] J
Again, you only joined yesterday.
[10:54] K
That's not it. I just feel
like maybe I don't belong...
[11:00] J
Konomi!
[11:01] J
By twisting one leg inward,
you can raise your waist position.
[11:05] J
That gives you a longer reach
and lets you get to farther holds.
[11:09] J
This is a basic move called
the Egyptian, or drop knee.
[11:13] K
Egyptian...
[11:14] J
Every hold has a mostly optimal solution,
[11:17] J
and moves are basically climbing formulas.
[11:20] J
Right now, you're trying to solve
problems without knowing those formulas.
[11:26] J
Just learning the Egyptian should
help make things easier for you.
[11:32] J
If you have anything to apologize for,
it's your failure to believe in yourself.
[11:41] J
If you want to be a real climber,
ignore what others say
[11:44] J
and trust your instincts.
[11:48] K
Thank you, Jun-chan.

Yoo-hoo, Konomin!
I'll buy you a smoothie later...
[12:04] S
Huh?
[12:04] K
Go for a hold that's far out.
[12:06] K
Twisting one leg inward
raises my waist position.
[12:09] K
Raises my waist position.

further, but whatever.

with my combined score.

You haven't changed, huh?
[12:54] Ak
Uehara Jun!
[12:55] J
You're still trying to drive
newbies out of the sport?
[12:58] Ak
Wh-What in the world?
[13:01] Ak
I have no idea what you could pawsibly mean.
[13:04] (Flashback) G
You're amazing, Akane-chan!
[13:06] Ak
I'd gotten a big head for being
a better climber than most
[13:09] Ak
when a newbie showed up out of nowhere.
[13:11] Ak
She sent the problem faster than anyone
else and looked down on the audience.
[13:16] Ak
She became the star in every
local competition after that.
[13:20] Ak
How dare she, when she started after me!
[13:23] Ak
So, I swore to destroy every
newbie I came across.
[13:29] Ak
Anyway, could you please
go somewhere else?
[13:34] Ak
I don't have the time to throw
paws with you right now.
[13:36] J
I just thought this was the
best seat in the house.
[13:40] J
I wanna get a good look at your face
after you see our newbie climb.
[13:44] Ak
Who, that loser who doesn't
know how to analyze a problem?
[13:49] Ak
What kind of expurression
do you want me to make?
[13:53] Ak
Laugh my tail off?
Be shocked by how pawful she is?
[13:57] Ak
I don't know if I can
act this out purrfectly!
[14:05] K
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm calm and composed.
[14:08] K
Watch me, Captain, Nono-senpai...
[14:12] K
And Jun-chan.
[14:15] K
This is how I climb.
[14:26] Pa
Whoa, Kasahara's taking it slow and
steady compared to her previous run.
[14:31] Ak
Huh... So she's not completely useless.
[14:35] Ak
But her moves are look like
something the cat dragged in.
[14:39] K
I have to grab this hold with my left
hand and get closer to the next one.
[14:44] K
Here, I take a step back to
safely clip the rope on.
[14:48] S
Konomi-san is using her head now.
[14:50] N
Yeah, she's looking really good.
[14:53] S
But now, she has to deal
with the slight overhang.
[14:56] N
Yeah.
[14:56] S
Overhangs bring gravity into play more,
which wears you out quicker.
[15:01] Ak
She'll run out of gas and fall soon enough.
[15:06] K
This angle sucks!
[15:09] K
My arms can't take any more!
[15:13] Ak
See? She's just about done fur.
[15:18] K
I know! This is the perfect time!
[15:23] Ak
The Egyptian?!
[15:24] J
I just taught her that move
and she's already using it as a rest hold?
[15:28] Ak
She's secured her lower body
in place to rest her arms?
[15:35] K
Okay, I can keep going now.
[15:40] Chin
I knew it.
[15:41] Chin
That girl really isn't normal.
[15:43] Chin
This will be fun!
[15:49] Ak
What the heck? She keeps going,
like she's done this before.
[15:52] Ak
Did she get a perfect read on
the problem as a total newbie?
[15:56] K
I can't move like I envisioned
when I'm actually climbing.
[16:01] K
But...
[16:08] Ak
That volume...
[16:13] Ak
It's the one I fell from.
[16:16] K
Put together a sequence.
[16:17] Ak
No... She can't get higher than me!
[16:21] K
Fit the pieces together and find a path!
[16:24] K
Send this thing home!
[16:26] Ak
Gah! I would never lose to her!
[16:40] Pa
Kasahara grabs hold of the volume.
[16:43] Ak
No way...
[16:45] J
Love that look, Uchimura.
[16:50] J
I'll let you off the hook for this,
[16:53] J
but the next time you try anything
funny with us, you'll pay for it.
[16:57] J
Etch this into your tiny brain.
[16:59] J
This is Hanamiya's...
Kasahara Konomi's brand of climbing.
[17:05] K
The next hold looks simple to grab.
[17:09] K
It's a little far,
so I should take a step back...
[17:14] Pa
Oh no! She falls so close to the goal!
[17:17] Pa
But she showed us an amazing series of moves!
[17:19] Pa
Give her a big hand!
[17:21] K
Huh? I messed up?
[17:24] K
My hands are shaking...
[17:29] J
You can barely stand.
[17:31] K
Jun-chan.
[17:32] J
Here.
[17:34] J
You lacked the strength to send it, huh?
[17:37] K
Yeah... It didn't go as easily as I imagined.
[17:42] K
But...
[17:46] K
Maybe that's exactly what
makes you want to go again.
[17:53] J
Get a load of this newbie acting
like she knows the sport inside out.
[17:59] Ak
Damn it all!
[18:01] Ak
What was with that Kasahara Konomi girl?
[18:04] Ak
She got one hold higher than I did.
[18:07] Ak
Know your place, damn noob!
[18:10] Ak
Yeah, I have to destroy every
rookie I come across immediately.
[18:14] Ak
My... My neck!
[18:15] Chin
Bad girl. If you bump into someone,
you need apologize to them.
[18:19] Ak
Aren't you Kurikawa High's
Iwamine? Screw you!
[18:22] Chin
Not only do you not apologize,
you're insulting me now? Very bad.
[18:27] Ak
How is she generating such grip
strength with just a few fingers?
[18:32] Chin
I must say, you have a very cute face.
[18:32] Ak
I can't get free.
[18:34] Ak
G-Get out of my face.
[18:35] Chin
Come with me to the dressing rooms.
[18:37] Chin
I'll give you a good dressing down there.
[18:41] Ak
Wait! Let me go!
[18:43] Ak
I-I'm sorry, Iwamine-san!
[18:46] Ak
I was wrong! Spare me!

Our goal is to make Hanamiya

I want us to be the best team in Japan.
[19:35] S
And, using that as a springboard,
I'll enter international competitions,

win lots of medals, and help spread the
sport of climbing across the globe.
[19:44] S
That will make walls a
more commonplace thing.

Of course, becoming national
champions will be no mean feat.

[20:45] A
Cool Kurusu!
[20:47] S
Konomi-san, you have real talent for this.
[20:51] S
We'll need your talent if we wish to
win competitions bigger than today's.
[20:58] S
Would you be willing to scale
the national wall with us?

I...

I know I'm sorely lacking in experience.

We shall rebuild Konomi-san's body.
[00:05] K
Rebuild... my body?!
[00:10] Koyasu
Muscles won't ever betray you.
[00:12] Koyasu
They will be on your side all day, every day.
[00:16] Koyasu
They are close friends
you can trust with your life.
[00:21] Koyasu
The more you train,
the more effort you put in,
[00:25] Koyasu
the more your muscles will repay you.
[00:27] Koyasu
When you're swole, you will be fulfilled
both physically and mentally.
[00:32] Koyasu
And when your body and mind
reach perfect harmony,
[00:37] Koyasu
your muscles will make you
shine like never before.

Fight! Fight!
[02:13] K
You do laps for climbing, too?
[02:16] K
Maybe not if you're just gym climbing,
but competitive climbers do.
[02:21] (Flashback) S
Konomi-san, you couldn't send the route
at the tournament, remember?
[02:26] (Flashback) K
Yes.
[02:28] (Flashback) S
There were several reasons for that,
[02:30] (Flashback) S
but the most obvious one
was your lack of strength.
[02:33] (Flashback) S
That's understandable,
considering you only just started.
[02:37] (Flashback) S
Our next objective is the Kanto High School
Bouldering Championship in two months.
[02:42] (Flashback) S
In that time, we'll rebuild your
body into one that can compete.
[02:47] S
You have the potential to aim much higher.
[02:50] K
Got it!
[02:51] All
Fight! Fight!

[02:57] N
If anything, you're a bit chubby,
so you gotta lose some weight.
[03:01] K
Ch-Chubby?!
[03:04] N
Losing two kilos opens up more options
than gaining two kilos of grip strength.
[03:09] N
You've gotta be able to carry your weight
all the way up with just your limbs.
[03:12] K
Chub... Chubby?
[03:16] N
Gotcha!
[03:18] K
Hey, Nono-san!
[03:20] N
Gotta trim that fat, girl!
[03:23] K
Chubby...
[03:25] (Flashback) K
How exactly am I supposed
to build up strength?
[03:28] (Flashback) S
Basically, you'll work on base strength,
pulling and pushing power,
[03:33] (Flashback) S
core strength, and the ability
to maintain position...
[03:35] (Flashback) S
Foundational muscle strength for climbers.
[03:39] S
Next up, incline sprints.
We'll all go at once.
[03:43] K
Chubby...
[03:44] S
Is something the matter, Konomi-san?
[03:46] K
No, nothing!
[03:48] S
Go!
[03:51] (Flashback) N
But it'll be different from bodybuilding.
[03:56] (Flashback) J
You're only looking to
gain functional muscle.
[03:59] (Flashback) J
Getting too jacked will
only add excess weight.
[04:00] (Flashback) K
Yes!
[04:02] (Flashback) K
No!
[04:04] S
One-legged squats!
[04:07] K
Chubby...
[04:09] S
Okay, let's do some short problems.
[04:12] K
Chubby...
[04:15] J
Focus, Konomi.
[04:17] K
O-Oh, right.
[04:18] J
Nicely done, Captain.
[04:19] N
Nice, Sayo-chin.
[04:20] J
Nice, Konomi!
[04:23] K
I had such a hard time
with a short problem...
[04:27] S
Okay, now let's campus that problem.
[04:31] K
"Campus"?
[04:36] K
What the hell?
[04:38] K
I sent this earlier, but now
my legs won't move.
[04:42] K
I can't even complete one move?
[04:45] S
Climbing using your arms
alone is called "campusing."
[04:49] S
This trains your upper body to...
[04:55] N
Are you okay, Konomin?!
[04:56] J
Are you all right?
[04:58] K
Ch...
[05:00] S
Begin hanging leg raises!
[05:02] S
One, two, three, right.
[05:05] S
One, two, three, left.
[05:07] K
One, two, three...
[05:08] N
Konomin down!
[05:10] S
One, two, one, two...
[05:16] N
We lost Konomin again!
[05:17] N
Konomin!
[05:23] K
My entire body hurts.
[05:25] K
Training is really hard.
[05:30] K
Huh?
[05:32] K
Jun-chan.
[05:33] K
Let's eat together, okay?
[05:36] J
I-I don't mind.
[05:38] K
Yay! Thanks!
[05:45] K
I see you by yourself most of the time.
Do you prefer being alone?
[05:50] J
What? Is that a problem?!
[05:52] K
No, no, of course not!
[05:56] J
Well, you know how I am.
I'm not great at socializing.
[06:01] J
I've been obsessed with climbing forever
and don't have any other hobbies,
[06:05] J
so I have an easier time by myself.
[06:08] K
I see.
[06:10] J
Konomi, you've better doing
better in practice lately,
[06:14] J
but you're still way off
where you need to be.
[06:17] J
If you can't handle this regimen,
you'll fail the prelims in the next event, too.
[06:22] J
So, you need to...
[06:28] J
I'm doing it again.
[06:30] J
Being such a hardass on everyone
is the reason I don't have any friends.
[06:39] J
Later.
[06:45] K
You see right through me, huh?
[06:51] K
You're absolutely right.
I'm sore all over again.
[06:57] K
But you know what?
[06:59] K
I've never worked toward a
common goal with a team before.
[07:04] K
So, while it is hard,
I'm enjoying this new experience.
[07:09] K
I'm really happy right now!
[07:11] J
This girl...
[07:13] K
Oh, sorry for keeping you.
[07:15] J
It's fine.
[07:17] K
Let's eat together again, okay, Jun-chan?
[07:24] J
I've always thought climbing
was all I ever wanted,
[07:28] J
and that I didn't need friends...
[07:31] J
Are you sure you want
me around during lunch?
[07:35] J
Keep in mind, I'll be
monitoring your calorie intake.
[07:40] K
No!
[07:41] J
What? Having doubts about your diet?
[07:43] K
Uh, that's not it...
[07:45] J
Looks like I'm going to have my hands full.
[07:48] K
Oh... Cut me some slack, boss.
[07:55] S
Three more seconds.
[07:57] S
Three, two, one.
[08:05] S
Okay, let's do some cooldown
stretches and call it a day.
[08:08] N
'Kay!
[08:09] K
Huh? Are finishing up early today?
[08:14] N
It's because we have a road trip tomorrow,
my dear Konomi-kun.
[08:18] K
Oh, that's right. A practice match, right?
[08:23] K
Who are we facing?
[08:26] S
A truly formidable opponent, that's who.
[08:29] S
It's called the Anti-Monkey Rock.
[08:32] K
The Anti-Monkey Rock?
[08:34] S
It's just what it sounds like.
[08:36] S
It's a rock that even monkeys can't climb.
[08:42] K
P-Poor monkeys!
[08:45] K
Huh? Nobody's here.
[08:49] K
Why?
[08:50] K
Did I come to the wrong place?
[08:52] K
"Jun-chan, where are you?
I don't see you all."
[08:55] K
Heck, I don't see anyone, for that matter.

[09:24] K
I was just wondering what
you were doing here.

You're always going off
and doing whatever and stuff.
[10:53] J
Huh? I can't hear you.
[10:54] J
You're such a...
[10:55] N
They seem awfully friendly now.
[10:55] K
Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry!
[10:59] S
Rocks, like climbing walls,
have difficulty grades.
[11:02] S
The Anti-Monkey Rock has a V6 problem,
[11:06] S
and other more difficult problems,
going all the way to V10.
[11:10] J
I'm going to attempt a V8 today.
[11:14] S
It'll be difficult for you to fully climb it,
since it's your first time,
[11:19] S
but start with the V6 and see how you go.
[11:21] K
Okay!
[11:33] K
There's someone climbing over there!
[11:39] K
Awesome.
[11:53] K
Wow, he actually climbed all the way.
[12:02] S
That was incredible, Juzo-san.
[12:04] Gj
Miss Yotsuba.
[12:06] S
It's nice to see you again.
[12:07] S
Let me introduce you.
This is Goto Juzo-san.
[12:11] S
He's a bouldering specialist who holds
numerous outdoor climbing records.
[12:15] S
He coaches us every now and then.
[12:18] Gj
No, I don't. You just happen
to be there when I'm climbing.
[12:24] Ki
Dad.
[12:25] S
Oh, Kiku-chan.
[12:27] S
Long time no see. How have you been?
[12:31] K
Huh?
[12:36] K
I knew it.
[12:40] Ki
Master!
[12:41] All
"Master"?
[12:42] K
Oh, uh, it's a long story.
[12:46] J
Is it?
[12:48] J
I'm amazed you know Kiku-chan, Konomi.
[12:51] K
It's more like I just
got to know her earlier.
[12:55] N
What? Don't tell me you actually managed
to have a conversation with her?!
[12:59] K
I guess you could say that...
[13:00] N
Amazing. I'd love to have
a chat with her, too,
[13:05] N
but she doesn't talk to us much.
[13:08] K
Really?
[13:10] N
What the heck?
[13:11] N
She's such a tough nut to crack for me.
[13:14] S
Nonoka, the mat.
[13:15] N
I know.
[13:16] N
But lucky you, Konomin.
[13:18] K
Right...
[13:19] S
Get ready, Konomi-san.
[13:21] K
Okay!
[13:25] K
So, this is the Anti-Monkey Rock.
Let's do this.
[13:35] K
This thing has eight routes...
[13:38] K
No, if you count the ones that
merge partway, ten routes.
[13:43] J
You can tell? You haven't
even checked a topo guide.
[13:46] K
But they all look difficult.
[13:48] K
The only one I might be able to climb
[13:51] K
is the one that turns to the
top-right from around the middle.
[13:54] S
Bingo. That's the V6 problem.
[13:58] S
Impressive observation, as always.
[14:03] J
Go for it, Konomi.
[14:04] N
Hang in there, Konomin!
[14:06] K
This is real rock climbing...
[14:11] K
It's nothing like the
holds on the wall in school!
[14:14] K
It's so rough!
[14:17] J
Yeah, that's the way.
[14:18] N
Keep going!
[14:20] K
Next up is that crack over there.
[14:25] K
Ouch!
[14:32] K
The crack is next...
[14:39] K
My right hand froze!
[14:42] K
Why won't you move, hand?
[14:45] K
Why? I haven't even climbed all that far!
[14:58] K
I'm scared!
[15:04] J
Nice landing, Konomi.
[15:06] J
No need to push yourself at the start.
[15:08] N
It'd be dangerous if you got too far.
[15:11] J
So, how did your first
bouldering attempt feel?
[15:15] S
Unlike walls, rock faces are
intimidating on a primal level.
[15:20] S
This is one of the reasons:
[15:23] S
the high risk attached to falling in itself,
because even that could injure you.
[15:29] J
In competitive bouldering,
you can keep going even after you fall,
[15:33] J
so you kinda start thinking it's
okay to fall and take it lightly.
[15:38] S
Right now, you're working on
your strength and technique,
[15:42] S
but there's one more major thing
you need to be able to win.
[15:46] S
It's the fortitude to keep climbing
when you know you can't afford to fall.
[15:52] K
Fortitude...
[15:57] S
Go, Jun!
[15:58] K
Fight, Jun-chan!
[16:14] S
Amazing, Jun! You actually sent the V8!
[16:17] ---
Thank you!
[16:19] Ki
Dad, can you spot for me?
[16:25] N
Given where she's starting,
is she attempting the same route as Jun?
[16:29] S
No. She's traversing to the right,
so it's the V10 problem.
[16:36] S
She changed her route?
[16:38] S
It's a mixture of both
the V10 problems here...
[16:42] S
The most difficult route this rock has.
[16:44] S
She's at the crux!
[16:46] S
At the end of a long sequence of moves that
drain you, you have to execute a mantel
[16:50] S
which is very demanding and even scarier.
[16:55] S
Incredible. And she's still
only in junior high school, too.
[16:58] K
Wow.
[17:00] S
She's probably the best girl boulderer
in junior high, period.
[17:06] K
That was amazing, Kiku-chan!
[17:08] K
You can climb such a difficult route!
[17:13] Ki
Well, I've been climbing this rock for years.
[17:17] Ki
I actually think your eyes are more amazing.
[17:20] K
Really?
[17:21] Ki
Yeah.
[17:22] Ki
Unlike walls, rock faces
don't have routes marked out,
[17:26] Ki
so they require even more analytic skill.
[17:29] Ki
You figured out all the routes on sight.
That's an amazing ability.
[17:34] Ki
I was right to call you my master.
[17:39] K
Th-Thanks, Kiku-chan.
[17:42] Ki
I believe that rock climbing
is the pinnacle of free climbing.
[17:47] Ki
I have a dream, you see.
[17:50] K
What is it?
[17:51] Ki
The most difficult problem in Japan was
first climbed and announced by my dad.
[17:55] Ki
Someday, I want to send it and be his equal.
[18:02] K
That's some dream.
[18:04] K
You must really love your dad.
[18:10] Ki
Yeah, I do.
[18:13] Ki
Wait, Master,
[18:15] Ki
do you have a thing for him?
[18:19] Ki
I guess I don't mind you becoming my mom.
[18:23] K
Wh-Wh-Where did that come from?!
[18:26] Ki
I think your analytic skill
really shines on rock faces.
[18:31] Ki
So, Master,
[18:34] Ki
climb rocks and become
a true free climber with me.
[18:40] K
With you?
[18:41] Ki
I promise it'll be fun, okay?
[18:45] K
Fun...
[18:47] J
Hey, Konomi. We're resuming practice.
[18:50] K
O-Okay! Coming!
[18:52] Ki
Think about it, Master.
[18:58] N
You can do it this time, Konomin!
[19:01] K
I want to be able to climb
just as well as these girls.
[19:07] (Flashback) Ki
I think your analytic skill
really shines on rock faces.
[19:10] K
Yeah, right! Just look at me now!
[19:12] J
Hang in there, Konomi.
[19:14] N
Keep at it!
[19:15] S
Konomi-san!
[19:16] J
Focus!
[19:25] K
Move... Move! Please move!
[19:29] K
I want to climb! Let me climb!
[19:36] K
I can't do it.
[19:38] K
God, I suck.
[19:43] ---
I...
[19:45] J
What's up?
[19:47] K
When I thought I might fall...
[19:53] J
You froze up in fear, right?
[19:55] K
Right.
[19:57] S
Konomi-san, when you feel fear
while outdoor bouldering,
[20:00] S
it's because you aren't convinced you
won't fall off the holds you're grabbing.
[20:05] S
To overcome that fear,
you need confidence in your body.
[20:09] S
If you have that,
you'll be able to move freely.
[20:12] S
You saw how Juzo-san climbed, didn't you?
[20:15] S
With confidence, you can even
trust your pinkie with your life.
[20:19] S
That is why you're training now.
[20:24] S
Konomi-san, work with us
and gain confidence in yourself.
[20:28] K
Yeah.
[20:31] J
Go, Konomi.
[20:35] N
Konomin's been super determined
since we got back.
[20:39] S
She's trying to love herself, in her own way.
[20:43] S
Begin hanging leg raises.
[20:47] J
You can do it, Konomi!
[20:51] K
I see now.
[20:52] K
I didn't know how to respond
to Kiku-chan's words
[20:56] K
because I suck, can't even
climb the Anti-Monkey,
[21:01] K
and have no confidence.
[21:03] S
Incline sprints, go!
[21:07] K
Right now, I'm not keeping up with practice.
[21:11] J
You okay, Konomi?
[21:15] K
So, I'm going to get to that point...
[21:18] K
I'm fine!
[21:19] J
Good.
[21:21] K
Build up my body so I can compete
together with the team...
[21:25] K
and gain the confidence to
speak my mind with Kiku-chan!
[21:33] J
You've got this!
[21:34] N
Go, Konomin!
[21:35] S
Just one more, Konomi-san!
[21:37] K
"The Anti-Monkey Rock"?
I'm gonna destroy that thing!
[21:45] S
Well done, Konomi-san.
[21:47] N
Amazing, Konomin!
[21:49] N
Not too long ago, just some sprints
were enough to make you faint!
[21:53] J
You're making definite progress.
[21:57] K
Okay, next up...
[21:59] K
Just you wait, Anti-Monkey Rock!

Doesn't look very hidden.
[01:24] K
Macho!
[01:24] K
Then, I got even more jacked and was
primed to win a bodybuilding competition,
[01:30] K
but Jun-chan showed up.
[01:31] J
I what?
[01:32] K
She won and I finished runner-up.
[01:35] J
Could you not involve me in your nightmares?
[01:45] J
Think you can send the
Anti-Monkey Rock this time?
[01:49] K
I don't know if I've gotten strong enough
in the past month and a half,
[01:55] K
but all I'm thinking about is
climbing with everything I've got.

Juzo-san, thank you for coaching us again.
[03:32] All
Thank you!
[03:33] G
Pleasure's all mine.
[03:35] Ki
Master...
[03:36] N
Let's put down the mats, then.
[03:37] K
Hello, Kiku-chan.
[03:38] S
Good idea.
[03:38] K
How've you been?
[03:39] J
Got it.
[03:39] Ki
G-Good.
[03:41] Ki
Master,
[03:43] Ki
did you think about what I said last time?
[03:47] (Flashback) Ki
Climb rocks and become
a true free climber with me.
[03:52] K
Sorry I couldn't answer you that day.
[03:56] K
But I will today.
[03:58] K
Wait for me atop the Anti-Monkey Rock.
[04:00] Ki
Okay. Good luck, Master.
[04:03] K
Thanks. I'll do my best.
[04:06] G
She has a fine aura about her.
[04:09] Ki
She does.
[04:16] N
Go, Konomin!
[04:17] S
Good luck, Konomi-san!
[04:33] K
Time for the first crux.
[04:35] K
Sloper to crimp.
[04:38] K
First, swing my right leg
and secure my footing.
[04:42] K
Slowly raise my body...
[04:45] K
Grab the smooth sloper hold,
shift my body right...
[04:49] K
and pull myself up again.
[04:56] N
Nailed the first crux!
[04:58] S
She's looking good.
[04:59] J
But here comes the second crux.
[05:10] J
She needs to grab the upper part of
this crack to stabilize herself.
[05:17] K
I'm still scared.
[05:19] K
My hands are shaking again.
[05:26] K
But...
[05:28] K
I trained so hard with the team
[05:31] K
so I could reach out in this moment!
[05:38] N
She's got it!
[05:39] J
No, not yet!
[05:40] J
She's still on the lower part of that
crack. She needs to go one higher.
[05:43] K
Almost there... Just a little higher.
[05:47] K
It hurts!
[05:54] K
It's okay. I believe.
[05:57] K
I believe in my mind, my body,
[06:00] K
in my right hand!
[06:06] N
Sh...
[06:07] N
She secured herself.
[06:09] J
Good job, Konomi!
[06:10] J
Take a deep breath and go left to... the...
[06:16] K
That felt so good!
[06:18] Ki
Is she smiling?
[06:20] G
Looks like she's learned
how to deal with the fear.
[06:25] J
Captain?
[06:26] S
Juzo-san's right.
[06:28] S
It's easy to dismiss fear as a bad thing,
but it's a crucial warning sign.
[06:34] S
Climbers who don't feel fear tend to use
sloppy moves and mess up needlessly.
[06:39] S
Recklessness isn't a true
sign of a strong mind.
[06:43] S
What is, however, is being fully aware
of the risks and still having fun,
[06:49] S
which takes real mental toughness.
[07:08] N
She did it!
[07:09] J
Hell yeah!
[07:11] G
Konomi-kun will make a fine climber.
[07:25] K
So pretty.
[07:27] K
It's not even that high up, so why...?
[07:31] Ki
The Anti-Monkey Rock
[07:33] Ki
is said to be the gateway to hard bouldering.
[07:37] Ki
You did it, Master.
[07:40] K
I get why you're so hooked
on rock climbing now.
[07:42] K
This view made it really obvious.
[07:46] Ki
Really?
[07:47] Ki
You'll join me, then...
[07:49] K
Sorry, Kiku-chan.
[07:51] K
I can't accept your offer.
[07:55] K
I have a dream of my own,
[07:56] K
to be the best in Japan.
[07:59] K
I couldn't have taken in this view if the
Hanamiya team hadn't helped me practice.
[08:05] K
But you know what, Kiku-chan?
[08:07] K
I value our friendship and don't
want us to drift apart over this.
[08:11] K
So, please come watch
[08:13] K
the Kanto Bouldering Championship next week.
[08:18] K
You showed me how fun rock climbing can be.
[08:22] K
I want to do the same for you,
except with sport climbing.
[08:27] K
Just like rock faces have their appeal,
competitive climbing has its own...
[08:31] Ki
You don't have to, Master. I'm fine
just knowing how good rock faces are.
[08:36] K
B-But Kiku-chan...
[08:38] Ki
I'm good, really.
[08:39] K
Uh, but...
[08:40] Ki
I'm good.
[08:42] K
B-But... But... But...
[08:47] K
A student has to come cheer
for their master, no?!
[08:51] K
...no...no...
[08:54] N
You called?
[08:55] K
Yeah, I'm your venerable master, you hear?!
[08:58] K
It is natural that you should
come cheer me on, you hear?!
[09:01] K
Such is the nature of a master-student
relationship, my dear!
[09:04] K
You'll show up, you hear?!
[09:07] Ki
Master, you're talking weird.
[09:12] Ki
Super weird.
[09:13] K
Wh-What's that supposed to mean?
[09:15] Ki
Got it, Master.
[09:18] Ki
I'll cheer you on at the
venue as your student.
[09:22] Ki
I don't think I'll be very loud, but I'll try.
[09:25] Ki
Also, I can't say if I'll develop
an interest in competitive climbing.
[09:29] K
It's okay! That's perfectly fine by me!
[09:34] N
Man, Konomin, you gave me goosebumps.
[09:36] K
Thank you.
[09:38] J
Well, slow and steady and all that.
[09:41] N
Hello? Weren't you the one
fist pumping like crazy?
[09:44] J
I-I would never!
[09:46] N
You totally were!
[09:48] K
Really?
[09:49] J
Again, I wasn't.
[09:49] S
Adding an outdoor rock face to the practice
schedule paid off spectacularly.
[09:50] N
She went all like, "boom!"
[09:52] J
Nobody asked for a demonstration!
[09:54] S
Yeah, now we can compete.
[09:58] K
Huh? No practice today?
[10:00] K
But the competition's soon, isn't it?
[10:03] S
Instead, we're all going on a little outing.

SIGN Currently helping a customer
[11:21] K
You want me to take off my socks, too?
[11:23] A
Of course. It's gotta be your naked feet.
[11:25] K
Why "naked" and not "bare"?
[11:28] A
Huh?
[11:29] K
Oh, nothing.
[11:30] A
Soles play a crucial role in bouldering,
[11:33] A
so you feel them directly to check.
[11:37] A
These feet are lovely. Not arched
too high and not too wide.
[11:47] K
Wait, what?!
[11:48] K
D-Don't put my feet on your face!
[11:50] A
Relax. This helps identify
the contour of your sole.
[11:55] A
It's the most accurate method.
Of course, it takes lots of experience.
[11:59] A
You should be okay with a tight fit.
[12:03] A
Downturned should be good.
[12:04] K
D-Down... what?
SIGN Flat
SIGN Downturned
[12:06] A
Climbing shoes have two kinds
of soles: flat and downturned.
SIGN Flat
[12:12] A
Flat soles are comfortable
[12:14] A
and don't strain your feet much,
so they're recommended to beginners.
SIGN Downturned
[12:18] A
Downturned soles give
you more grip around your toes,
[12:22] A
so they're good for sharp inclines.
[12:25] A
After feeling you up, I think this
would be the best fit for you.
[12:29] A
It's gotta be this one!
[12:32] A
Go ahead and try them on.
[12:34] K
Okay!
[12:36] K
Wow, these are tight.
[12:39] K
Will they really work?
[12:46] K
What the heck?
[12:48] K
I feel so light.
[12:52] K
They latch on tight to every hold,
be it with the toes or the heel!
[12:55] A
How do you like 'em?
[12:56] A
Downturned shoes let you "grab"
holds instead of stepping on them.
[13:00] A
They should be perfect for you.
[13:01] K
Amazing.
[13:03] N
You can make the best
choice with just a feel.
[13:05] N
They don't call you the Shoemeister
Fujimura Asuka for nothing.
[13:07] N
This is my bread and butter.
[13:09] N
I've felt up way more naked
feet than you can imagine.
[13:13] K
With these shoes, I can get
to holds I couldn't before.
[13:18] K
I can take routes I could see but not climb!
[13:21] K
With these,
[13:29] K
I can keep climbing forever!
[13:36] A
Whaddaya say, Konomi-chan?
[13:38] A
Want to try some other pairs?
[13:40] K
I can grab that one hold with these.
[13:43] K
Wow, it'd be so easy to do a heel hook.
[13:46] K
Even tough climbs seem so easy now.
[13:48] A
Oh? I see now.
[13:50] A
No wonder she's such a quick learner.
[13:53] A
By the way, Yotsuba-chan...
[13:55] A
There's a new model out for the thing now.
[13:57] A
Want to try it?

[03:10] K
Nono-san?
[03:12] N
So...
[03:15] N
If I do, we'll be counting on you.
[03:18] K
Wh-What are you saying?
[03:20] K
You're a much better climber than me!
[03:23] K
I'll be a complete non-factor
in the team championship!
[03:26] N
J-Just kidding!
[03:28] N
Sorry.
[03:30] N
I guess I'm nervous.
[03:33] N
Did I scare you?
[03:36] Comm
Uchimura falls!
[03:38] U
Grr!
[03:40] U
What is with this slab?
[03:42] U
That last hold is way too far!
[03:45] Comm
As the routesetter, what do you
make of that fall, Nakada-san?
[03:48] Naka
Hmm... I think she jumped a little early.
[03:52] Naka
You have to maintain your balance and
place your foot on the volume to the left,
[03:56] Naka
then raise your arms and perform a dyno.
[03:58] Naka
That's the perfect move sequence
to solve this problem.
[04:01] Naka
Since I'm the one who set this problem,
[04:04] Naka
I know that is the only
sequence that can send it.
[04:11] U
I should wait until I see someone
else send this problem before I retry.
[04:17] Comm
Whoa, here comes one of the
favorites to win this competition.
[04:20] Comm
We're about to see Fujita Masumi in action!
[04:23] Comm
How will she tackle this problem,
which no competitors have sent yet?
[04:35] Comm
Fast! She's way too fast!
[04:37] Comm
Fujita's moves are a blur! It's like we're
watching a speed climbing competition!
[04:41] Comm
She's reached the zone hold
in just a few seconds!
[04:44] Comm
Will she finish things off here?
[04:47] Naka
Hmph. Is she going to jump?
[04:49] Naka
How hasty, my girl.
[04:53] Naka
That is the wrong move to make.
[04:58] (Flashback) Pa
Get set!
[05:05] Naka
What?!
[05:07] Comm
She's got it!
[05:08] Comm
Fujita Masumi has done it in one go!
[05:11] Comm
Is it any surprise she's a favorite?
[05:13] Mas
Hell yeah!
[05:15] Naka
What an incredible display of core
strength and leaping ability!
[05:19] Cater
Amazing, Captain Masumin!
[05:21] Cater
Killer!
[05:22] Kur
Impressive, as always.
[05:23] Mas
Thank you, everyone.
[05:25] K
What the heck was that double dyno?
[05:28] N
That's Fujita Masumi for you.
[05:30] N
Her climbing is characterized by her
absurd explosiveness and vertical...
[05:33] Mas
I'm going to try to send everything
in my way. Follow my lead, girls.
[05:37] All
Yeah!
[05:37] N
...which has given her the
moniker of Black Panther.
[05:42] Ki
Dad, there are so many climbers.
[05:45] Ki
And they're all climbing at once.
[05:47] G
Yes. These prelims will decide the top 20,
who will proceed to the semifinals.
[05:54] Ki
I don't really understand the rules.
[05:57] G
Competitive bouldering is a
sport where climbers compete
[06:00] G
over how many routes they can
finish within the time limit.
[06:03] Ki
There are eight routes in total here.
[06:06] Ki
If two people send the same number,
how are they ranked?
[06:10] G
In that case, the next benchmark is
[06:13] G
how many zones they've reached.
[06:15] Ki
Then, apart from sending, grabbing
those bonus holds is important, too?
[06:20] G
Verily!
[06:25] Ki
Dad, you seem to be enjoying yourself today.
[06:30] G
The rankings are determined by...
SIGN Routes sent ↓
SIGN Zones reached ↓
SIGN Attempts needed to send routes ↓
SIGN Attempts needed to reach zones
[06:32] G
routes sent, zones reached,
[06:35] G
attempts needed to send routes,
and attempts needed to reach zones.
[06:40] G
Even if you fall, you can line up again
and try each problem up to five times.
[06:46] Ki
But lining up again will eat up a lot of time.
[06:49] G
It does.
[06:51] G
How well you observe the field and use your
time effectively is the key to victory.
[06:57] Comm
This problem involves a overhang.
[06:59] Comm
It seems pretty demanding.
How will Kumagai climb this?
[07:03] Bear
There is only one thing I consider
to be a major factor...
[07:06] Bear
and that is strength!
[07:10] Comm
Wow! She's unbelievably strong!
[07:12] Comm
She's getting higher and higher
using only her upper body!
[07:15] Naka
Isn't she going to use those edge holds?
[07:17] Naka
That's the graceful way to climb!
[07:20] Comm
And sent! Talk about powerful climbing!
[07:24] Comm
Give it up for the Muscle Maxima'am,
Kumagai Chigusa!
[07:28] Chig
Strength is power!
[07:33] Ku
A gentle curve that rejects
being trampled on.
[07:37] Ku
But it is helpless before me.
[07:40] Ku
Un,
[07:41] Ku
deux,
[07:42] Ku
relevé!
[07:44] Ku
Un,
[07:45] Ku
deux,
[07:46] Ku
arabesque!
[07:49] Comm
Sent! Ooba mesmerizes with
her exquisite balance!
[07:53] Nak
That's our Ballerina of Rock.
[07:55] Nak
Believe it or not, ballet and climbing
have a lot of common factors.
[07:58] Nak
Form, precise leg movements,
and use of the hips to name a few.
[08:04] Kur
To me, this problem was as
basic as The Cupid Variation.
[08:11] S
From what I can see, the pocket
on top is pretty tricky.
[08:15] S
It's likely that I won't be able to
stabilize myself if I dyno to it,
[08:19] S
so I should shift my body
weight right, and...
[08:24] S
Nice! Got it!
[08:26] Comm
Smooth! Yotsuba made good use
of toeholds to secure the top hold!
[08:31] Naka
The Princess of Lead does it again.
[08:33] Naka
Even in bouldering, her decision-making
at altitude remains unmatched.
[08:37] Comm
We're seeing more and more
climbers send routes in one go.
[08:40] Naka
Prelims or not, these problems
are certainly not easy.
[08:44] Naka
It just goes to show the
amount of talent we have here.
[08:49] Nii
Where there is a will, there is a way.
Just one more move to finish.
[08:52] Nii
There!
[08:53] Nii
I did...
[08:54] Nii
it?
[08:56] Nii
Why?!
[08:57] Comm
Whoa, Niijima?
[08:59] Comm
It's not recognized as a send unless
you get both hands on that hold.
[09:03] Nii
Darn.
[09:05] U
What are mew doing, Senpai?!
[09:08] K
An incline with several sloper holds.
[09:10] K
Judging by the people who went
before me, the crux is...
[09:14] K
the hold four hands up.
[09:16] (Flashback) S
Top climbers conquer walls twice.
[09:19] (Flashback) S
Once on sight, and once with their bodies.
[09:23] K
Well, I've conquered it in mind already.
[09:26] K
That leaves...
[09:27] Comm
Nobody has sent this problem yet.
[09:30] Comm
The next one to attempt it is
Hanamiya Girls' first-year,
[09:33] Comm
Kasahara Konomi!
[09:35] K
Next up is the hold that
dropped a bunch of people,
[09:38] K
the blue sloper three hands up.
[09:41] K
Okay, yeah, it's slippery!
[09:43] K
I need to stabilize myself quickly!
[09:45] K
Next,
[09:46] K
I'll do a pied à main with my left leg,
[09:49] K
and match the blue sloper.
[09:50] K
Then, use the left heel hook to...
[09:54] Comm
Kasahara reaches the zone hold!
[09:57] K
Bless the shoes Asuka-san picked out for me.
[10:00] K
They feel perfect!
[10:02] Comm
But going from here to
the goal will be tough.
[10:05] Comm
Some climbers reached the top hold,
[10:08] Comm
but none of them could grab it
and stabilize themselves.
[10:11] K
Bad grips at this incline
are a terrible combo.
[10:15] K
It makes you want to close the distance
to the top hold with a do-or-die dyno.
[10:20] K
No, stay calm. Replay the sequence
in your mind one more time.
[10:26] K
Perform another pied à main
with the left leg.
[10:30] K
And then...
[10:31] Comm
Kasahara's matching that sloper?!
[10:34] K
This hold is nothing!
[10:37] K
Nothing compared to that crimper
in the Anti-Monkey's second crux!
[10:45] K
Keep both hands on the prize!
[10:47] Comm
Sent!
[10:48] K
Yes!
[10:49] Comm
Sent in one! She becomes the
first to send the problem!
[10:53] Naka
That means she solved that
crux all on her own.
[10:57] Naka
Can she one-shot any problem
with enough time to observe?
[11:02] Naka
She's a true on-sight climber.
[11:05] Naka
She has wonderful analytic skills
and climbs with practical precision.
[11:08] Naka
Kasahara Konomi, just what is your deal?
[11:11] Ki
Master did it!
[11:13] N
Wow, Konomin. I can't
believe you sent it in one.
[11:17] Ku
I thought Uehara-san was the only
Hanamiya first-year to watch out for.
[11:21] Maru
I'll go through my data later, I'll have to!
[11:23] Nii
A powerful foe has shown up.
[11:27] Mas
And she's a first-year?
[11:29] Kur
Oh? Interesting gal,
that Kasahara Konomi-chan.
[11:35] ---
Our next climber is Hanamiya Girls'
second-year Sugiura Nono!
[11:39] K
You can do it, Nono-san!
[11:42] N
Watching Konomin's one-shot
gave me lots of confidence.
[11:47] N
I'm gonna go all-out, okay?
[11:53] N
One, two...
[11:56] N
three!
[12:03] Comm
She's quickly pulling herself up high.
[12:05] Comm
Sugiura reaches the zone hold!
[12:08] ---
Okay, looking good.
[12:10] N
Now...
[12:11] N
I just need to corner this thing,
and I'll reach the top hold for sure!
[12:20] N
Now for the left foot.
[12:23] N
Okay!
[12:24] N
Gotcha! The goal is right there.
[12:29] N
I can't reach it?
[12:31] N
But then, I can just...
[12:33] K
Nice!
[12:34] K
A dropknee to a back-and-foot!
[12:36] N
That should do it!
[12:41] N
Why can't I reach it?
This should be the right sequence!
[12:46] N
In the final problem of an
important tournament last year,
[12:49] N
I just couldn't grab the first hold
and spent four whole minutes dynoing.
[12:55] N
I've spent the last half a year trying to
make sure that would never happen again!
[13:01] S
Nono, please hang in there.
[13:07] N
Get there... get there...
[13:10] N
Get there! Get there!
[13:12] N
Get me there!
[13:17] S
Nono!
[13:19] Comm
Oh no! Sugiura falls just one step away!
[13:25] N
Why? Why can't I get to it?
[13:33] Comm
Whoa! Here comes Iwamine Chinari,
this competition's odds-on favorite!
[13:42] Comm
She already has a finished
route under her belt.
[13:45] Comm
How will she choose to attack this wall?
[13:56] Comm
Incredible! Her reach is every
bit as long as it looks!
[14:01] Naka
This problem's second hold needs
to be tackled like Sugiura did it.
[14:05] Naka
It usually can't be reached without
building up some momentum,
[14:07] Naka
but Iwamine can reach it just
by lifting her leg up a little.
[14:11] Naka
Her climbing is misleading.
[14:14] Naka
It makes any problem look easy to solve!
[14:16] Kuma
The way she inches up the wall,
even with her reach,
[14:20] Kuma
evokes the image of a spider
approaching prey trapped in its web.
[14:24] Kuma
That's why she's the Climbing Spider,
Iwamine Chinari!
[14:27] Comm
I see. So height is a real advantage
in bouldering, isn't it?
[14:32] Naka
No, that's a mistaken generalization.
[14:36] Naka
If anything, the longer your reach,
the more your body sways in dynos,
[14:41] Naka
and when holds are bunched up close,
your body makes it hard to position yourself.
[14:46] Naka
This is where things will start
to get difficult for Iwamine.
[14:50] Naka
How will she do this?
[14:54] Chin
Ladies, let me get a good look
[14:56] Chin
at your adorable faces being
struck with wonder and swooning.
[15:03] Naka
What?!
[15:04] Comm
S-Sent! We have just witnessed
the most audacious of moves!
[15:09] Naka
I didn't set this problem
to be solved with that crap!
[15:13] Comm
She grabbed the top hold without
even entering the corner!
[15:17] Comm
Unbelievable reach!
[15:18] Comm
Unbelievable height!
[15:20] N
No way. I couldn't reach
it even with cornering...
[15:24] K
Nono-san?
[15:27] N
Well, on to the next one.
[15:29] N
We haven't lost just yet.
[15:32] N
I'll definitely send the next one.
[15:34] N
Watch me, Konomin.
[15:36] K
R-Right.
[15:37] N
Okay, let's do this!
[15:41] Comm
As time goes on,
[15:43] Comm
it becomes clear what the problems
involve and how difficult they are.
[15:46] Naka
The climbers need to identify
which routes they can climb now.
[15:51] Maru
I know this, I do.
[15:53] Maru
This lemon-shaped volume is similar
to a hold in the Rockaround Rock gym.
[15:58] Maru
To improve my team's chances of victory,
I ran around and collected
[16:02] Maru
all kinds of climbing data,
which is all stored in my brain!
[16:06] Comm
Satou finishes the route!
[16:08] Maru
I did it, I did!
[16:10] Naka
Very nice. A beautiful climb,
just as I envisioned.
[16:14] Maru
I shall show what the
Lackey Data Climber can do, I daresay!
[16:20] J
This sloper's slippery.
[16:23] J
The top hold is right there...
[16:25] J
The edge up next looks awkward, too.
[16:28] J
What now?
[16:29] J
You can't grab that edge
with your fingers.
[16:32] J
The top hold is right there!
[16:33] J
My physical ability is top-notch.
[16:35] J
Go for a do-or-die jump!
[16:38] J
Don't take the easy way out,
[16:40] J
Jun!
[16:43] J
It's not great! But...
[16:45] J
The crimps in outdoor rock faces
have prepared me for this!
[16:52] J
Hell yeah!
[16:54] Comm
Hanamiya's speedster,
Uehara, sends the route!
[16:57] Naka
Given her skills, one could say
she's taking it slow and steady.
[17:04] Ri
Hear me, Caterno teammates.
[17:07] Ri
Watch my ordinary-as-hell moves,
[17:09] Ri
steal my techniques, and walk over my corpse.
[17:13] Ri
I'm Samura Rina, Caterno's
Crimson Stormtrooper.
[17:18] Ri
My moves may be ordinary,
[17:20] Ri
but I'm on fire when I climb!
[17:23] Comm
Samura finishes the route!
[17:27] Naka
Her moves may be conservative, but her
climbing is determined and passionate.
[17:32] Cater
Boss!
[17:33] Cater
You're the flamin' best!
[17:36] Comm
Time is running out.
[17:39] Comm
From here on, a single attempt could
shake up the rankings in a big way.

Why does this queue have such a long tail?

They say short people have a disadvantage

problems leaned into it too much.
[19:41] S
Sheesh. It makes you want to slap
the routesetter in the face, huh?

[19:47] S
How many times have we
competed at this venue now?
[19:51] S
And each time you lose, you come here.
[19:55] S
You haven't changed at all since our
first tournament together, Nono.
[19:59] N
You haven't changed at all, either.
[20:04] N
Whenever I'm down, you're with me
and trying to cheer me up.
[20:09] S
Oh? I wasn't aware of that.
[20:12] (Flashback) N
Climbing?
[20:13] (Flashback) S
My dream is...
[20:15] N
Ever since that day, we've both
given climbing our all together.
[20:20] N
And when we made it to high school,
Hanamiya's Director,
[20:23] N
your father, made it possible to
get a club up and running at once.
[20:28] S
We've been climbing together,
hoping to be the best in Japan someday.
[20:33] S
I couldn't have done it alone.
[20:36] S
It's only because you're here
that I've made it this far.
[20:41] N
Thanks, Sayo-chin.
[20:43] N
But...
[20:46] N
Deep down, I really...
[20:49] N
Time and time again,
I've felt that with my height,
[20:53] N
I'm not cut out for bouldering.
[20:56] N
But complaining about that
won't solve anything,
[21:00] N
so I tried to never say it out loud.
[21:03] N
But today... after that competition...
[21:11] N
Why did I have to be so tiny?
[21:15] N
I work so hard every day...
I even drink so much milk!
[21:21] S
Nono...
[21:27] N
I hate this so much!
[21:30] N
And Konomin did so well for us!
I wanted to shine out there, too!
[21:36] S
It's okay. There's always next time.
[21:39] S
You can show everyone what
you're capable of next time.

[03:13] K
R-Right...
[03:14] S
I'd say she's got 60 percent
of her energy back,
[03:18] S
though I'm sure she's still
feeling down about it.
[03:21] S
So, it's our job to bring her back up to 100.
[03:26] S
Understand?
[03:27] Bo
Loud and clear.
[03:29] J
Go harder, please.
[03:30] K
Okay, got it.
[03:32] K
Hup.
[03:36] K
Say, Jun-chan.
[03:38] K
St. Caterno's Fujita-san's been
practicing this whole time.
[03:41] K
Shouldn't she ease up a little?
[03:44] J
She'll be fine.
[03:45] J
Look at Captain. She's been running nonstop.
[03:47] K
I know...
[03:49] K
I wonder what Iwamine-san's listening to.
[03:51] J
Why don't you go ask her?
[03:52] K
Uh, I'd rather not.
[03:54] K
Meanwhile, that girl's studying or something.
[03:57] J
Must have college entrance exams.
[03:58] K
And what about her?
SIGN mwahaha
[03:59] J
Don't ask me.
[04:01] K
Must be photosynthesis!
[04:02] J
You can't be serious.
[04:04] Ku
May I have a moment?
[04:05] Ku
I didn't expect you to be good
enough to reach the semifinals,
[04:09] Ku
but I suppose that's what a former prima
at a powerhouse ballet school can do.
[04:13] Ku
I'm not one to talk, given I don't
have that much climbing experience,
[04:17] Ku
but you started in high school, right?
[04:20] K
Yeah. It's only been around two months or so.
[04:22] Ku
Wha...
[04:24] Ku
Surely I am better than you, then.
[04:28] Ku
E-Even if you were a superior ballerina,
I have the upper hand in climbing, and...
[04:35] Ku
St. Caterno is clearly the stronger team!
[04:40] Ku
Well, you're doing what you can as
a team with a mere four members.
[04:44] Ku
I remember that tiny girl from yesterday...
[04:46] J
Hey!
[04:47] K
We don't have four members.
[04:49] K
There may be four of us,
but together we are one.
[04:52] K
We're all doing our own thing,
but none of us are going it alone.
[04:56] K
Captain Sayo, Nono-senpai, and Jun-chan...
[04:59] K
When they're there with me,
[05:01] K
it gives me an incredible boost of strength.
[05:05] K
It makes me want to aim higher.
It makes me want to climb higher.
[05:12] K
I know I can go as far as
I want with the Hanamiya team.
[05:16] K
I can scale any wall in my way.
[05:18] K
I can't explain it. It's just how I feel.
[05:22] K
Is it weird?
[05:23] Ku
What? The Kasahara Konomi I knew
always projected a frailty of sorts.
[05:30] Ku
But this girl I see now...
[05:37] Ku
I wasn't wrong to see her as my role model.
[05:40] Ku
Is that so? Well, it'll make
victory all the sweeter.
[05:47] J
What's her problem?
[05:48] J
Anyway, you did mention doing ballet before,
[05:51] J
but not that you were a prima.
[05:52] K
It's not a big deal.
[05:54] K
It's just kind of been part
of my life since I was three.
[05:58] J
Huh? She seemed to be holding
a grudge over it, though.
[06:04] F
Anne-chan!
[06:06] A
Cool Kurusu.
[06:08] F
Cool Kurusu!
[06:11] As
Nono-chan?
[06:13] N
Asu-neesan!
[06:16] Comms
The Kanto Bouldering Championships
girls' semifinals are about to begin.
[06:20] Comms
I'm joined on commentary
by routesetter Nakata-san.
[06:23] ---
Glad to be here.
[06:24] N
What brings you here?
[06:26] As
I helped set the routes for the semis.
[06:29] N
Huh? Really?
[06:31] As
Good to see you again, Juzo-san.
[06:35] As
I believe it's our first
time meeting, Kiku-chan.
[06:37] N
Huh.
[06:38] As
I'm Fujimura Asuka,
and I run a climbing goods store.
[06:41] As
Nice to meetcha.
[06:45] Comms
What's the matter?
[06:47] Nak
Oh, nothing. Just that I produced
works of art for the semifinals, too.
[06:52] N
I wasn't expecting you to
be the routesetter for this.
[06:56] As
I only helped a little.
[06:58] As
Anyway, the level of competition
has skyrocketed lately.
[07:01] As
I knew we were getting better rookies
by the year, but this is awesome.
[07:05] N
Sure is.
[07:06] As
Well, the semis and finals follow
the conveyor belt system.
[07:10] As
Who knows how that will affect the climbers?
[07:12] Ki
What do you mean, conveyor belt system?
[07:15] N
It's called that because the climbers
appear to be on a conveyor belt.
[07:18] Ki
Is that so?
[07:21] N
You get five minutes to attempt the
first wall, then a five-minute break.
[07:24] N
Then five minutes for the second, another
five-minute break, and so on and so forth.
[07:29] As
Also, it goes in ascending
order of the prelim standings.
[07:33] As
Everyone goes in order,
attempting the four walls set for them.
[07:35] G
Unlike a timed session, the climbers
have to stay in an isolation area.
[07:40] G
They aren't allowed to see
what the others are doing.
[07:43] G
In other words,
[07:44] G
it naturally calls for
acute on-sighting ability.
[07:49] As
On-sighting requires experience,
[07:52] As
decision-making ability,
and the physical ability to back that up...
[07:55] N
But the most important of all
[07:57] N
is the analytic skills needed
to quickly find the right route.
[08:01] Ki
Th-Then...
[08:04] N
Exactly.
[08:05] Comms
We are ready for the girls'
semifinals to begin.
[08:08] Comms
Up first, we have the promising
rookie Kasahara Konomi!
[08:12] Nak
Judging from her performance in the prelims,
these rules should suit her better.
[08:21] K
Nono-san...
[08:23] K
Wish me luck!
[08:25] Comms
She impressed us all by making
the semifinals as a rookie.
[08:29] Comms
What kind of moves will
she show us this time?
[08:33] K
A flat wall that needs
balance and coordination.
[08:37] K
No inclines puts it right down my alley.
[08:41] K
Picture it...
[08:42] K
Picture yourself climbing
[08:44] K
and use that image to solve this problem!
[08:59] K
Urk... That crimp two hands up sucks.
[09:02] K
But crimping it will limit
the options for my next move,
[09:05] K
so I'll try to open-hand it.
[09:08] K
The crux... has to be the
lead-up to the zone hold.
[09:11] K
That sequence needs perfect coordination.
Gotta make sure I don't swing off.
[09:17] N
Good luck, Konomin.
[09:24] As
It's easy to tell because I've
watched her climb from up close.
[09:28] As
She's got a real knack for this.
[09:30] N
Yeah.
[09:30] As
But these walls will be
difficult for her to send.
[09:34] Ki
Why?
[09:36] As
The reason is simple:
[09:38] As
their sheer difficulty.
[09:40] As
The semifinal routes are meant to
eliminate all but six finalists,
[09:44] As
so they're designed to be just barely
possible for the top climbers to send.
[09:52] N
Looking good, Konomin! You can do this!
[09:54] Ki
Master!
[09:55] As
The shoes I picked are doing their job,
[09:58] As
but this is where things get tough.
[10:01] As
These problems are in a different league,
difficulty-wise, than the prelims' were.
[10:04] As
I'm sure we'll see a bunch of climbers
who can't even send one of them.
[10:07] N
It'll be fine, Asu-neesan. Just you watch.
[10:16] As
But hasn't it only been a couple of
months since she picked up climbing?
[10:19] As
It's virtually impossible for her to send...
[10:35] Comms
She...
[10:36] Comms
She sends it in one!
[10:37] Comms
Can you believe it?!
[10:41] Ku
Wh-What's with these loud cheers?
[10:44] Ku
No way...
[10:45] S
Sounds like Konomi-san sent it.
[10:50] J
Did she do it?
[10:53] K
Yes!
[10:55] As
H-How?
[10:58] N
That's just our Konomin, Asu-neesan.
[11:02] Nak
On-sighting the very first problem
in the semis that easily?
[11:05] Nak
You truly are special, Kasahara Konomi!
[11:08] Nak
She can't be judged as a
mere rookie at this point.
[11:12] Nak
We're witnessing the birth
of climbing's new star...
[11:15] Nak
Or should I say, invader?
[11:20] An
Cool, Kurusu.
[11:24] An
Kasahara Konomi from Hanamiya Girls', eh?
[11:28] An
She's a cool Kurusutomer, isn't she?
[11:31] Hif
Y-Yeah.
[11:34] Ri
These cheers... It was probably a one-shot.
[11:37] Maru
If the 20th-ranked Kasahara-san one-shot it,
[11:41] Maru
we can't afford to fail Problem A, we can't.
[11:46] S
Jun.
[11:47] J
She did it.
[11:48] S
We have to do our best to keep up.
[11:51] Comms
Our next climber is Satou
Maruno from Kurikawa High.
[11:55] Maru
But flip that around, and the
fact that she one-shot it
[12:00] Maru
means it can't have been all that difficult.
[12:03] Maru
I'll one-shot it too, I will!
[12:07] Maru
This crimp is pretty hard to grasp.
[12:11] Maru
And this third hold is easy
to swing off, it is.
[12:14] Maru
What do I do?
[12:17] Maru
So, this is a semifinal problem...
[12:20] Maru
It's several levels above
the prelims, it is!
[12:25] Maru
I'm not done yet.
[12:28] Comms
Oh, dear!
[12:29] Comms
Satou has yet to even secure the zone,
[12:32] Comms
but her time is up!
[12:35] Maru
M-Miss Kashahara shent this thing in one?!
[12:39] As
Now that's more like it. That's
how it's normally supposed to go!
[12:43] N
Yeah, well, Konomin isn't normal.
[12:46] Comm
Next up, we have Kasahara
attempting Problem B.
[12:49] Comm
Over at Problem A,
[12:51] Comm
we have Matsuhashi High's Niijima.
[12:54] Nii
Always be a challenger.
[12:57] Comm
This competition is her first
time clearing the prelims.
[13:00] Comm
She used several attempts in the prelims.
[13:03] Comm
What does she have in store for us?
[13:14] Comm
Whoa, and that ends her first try already.
[13:17] Nii
Wow, the very second hand is tough.
[13:20] Nii
But where there's a will, there's a way.
[13:27] Nii
Again!
[13:33] Nii
I'm not done.
[13:34] Ki
She's already on her fourth attempt.
[13:37] Ki
That's gotta be rough.
[13:39] As
Yeah.
[13:40] As
But she's getting higher with every attempt.
[13:45] As
Hell...
[13:48] Nii
This time!
[13:49] As
She's absurdly quick to pick
herself up and try again.
[13:55] U
Niijima-senpai is usually slow and clumsy,
[13:57] U
but she recovers abnormally quickly.
[14:01] U
It's why she can make a
high number of attempts.
[14:03] Nii
I won't give up.
[14:08] U
With each attempt,
[14:10] U
she gets higher and higher...
[14:13] U
until she reaches the top!
[14:15] Nii
Where there's a will, there's a way.
[14:17] Nii
Dreams do come true.
[14:20] U
The way she climbs, falls, and climbs again
[14:23] U
makes her look like a zombie!
Even death can't keep her down!
[14:29] U
That's Zombie Niijima!
[14:31] U
I'm on her team, and even
I can barely handle this.
[14:34] U
But...
[14:38] Nii
Never give up.
[14:40] Nii
It's not over until it's over.
[14:43] U
She doesn't fare well in prelims cause she
can't immediately retry after a fall,
[14:47] U
but she might have a real
chance in these semis!
[14:51] U
Did she do it?
[14:54] Nak
I-Incredible!
[14:56] Comm
I... I can't believe my eyes.
[15:00] Nii
Dreams... huh?
[15:02] U
What the fur are you
doing all the way there?!
[15:05] Comm
Kasahara Konomi sends it in one again!
[15:07] Comm
What is her deal?!
[15:09] Ri
Again?
[15:11] Ku
That's some wild cheering.
[15:12] Ku
I think it's Matsuhashi High's
Niijima Kaoru right now.
[15:15] Ku
Her, and... Kasahara Konomi on Problem B.
SIGN Isolation Area 1
[15:23] K
That volume two hands up...
[15:26] K
I should push into it a little...
[15:28] J
Konomi?
[15:29] K
And then for the edge foothold...
[15:30] J
Hey, you okay?
[15:33] K
Oh, Jun-chan. What's up?
[15:35] J
Uh, well...
[15:37] J
Are you tired?
[15:38] K
Nah, not at all.
[15:40] J
That's good.
[15:41] J
You should still relax your body.
[15:44] K
I know, don't worry! I feel like
I can keep climbing forever today!
[15:48] J
Uh... Look, just rest up
for these five minutes.
[15:52] J
At least wipe your sweat off.
[15:54] K
Oh, right.
[15:56] K
I forgot I wanted to do that.
[16:00] Comm
Next, Hanamiya's Kasahara
Konomi attempts Problem C,
[16:03] Comm
Matsuhashi's Niijima
Kaoru attempts Problem B,
[16:07] Comm
and at Problem A, we have
St. Caterno's Ooba Kurea.
[16:11] Ku
Kasahara Konomi...
[16:40] K
Picture it.
[16:42] K
Picture yourself solving this problem.
[16:52] Digik
Installation is finished.
[16:54] Digik
Ready. Game start.
[16:57] Comm
Attempting Problem A now is Prelims Rank 16,
[17:00] Comm
ex-ballet dancer Ooba Kurea.
[17:02] Ku
Those cheers rang out pretty
quickly for Problem A.
[17:06] Ku
Which means...
[17:08] Ku
Kasahara-san one-shot it.
[17:11] Ku
And when the second wave came,
Kasahara-san was on Problem B.
[17:16] Ku
Niijima-san couldn't have
sent Problem A in one.
[17:19] Ku
More likely...
[17:20] Ku
Another Kasahara one-shot.
[17:26] Ku
I can't be outdone, then. I must send
this in one with poise and grace.
[17:31] Nii
Dreams come true!
[17:36] Ku
This crimp has a pretty flimsy grip.
[17:38] Ku
The footholds are no better.
[17:39] Ku
That said, my exquisite sense of
balance will make this easy...
[17:45] Ku
Huh? Why is that hold angled that way?
[17:48] Ku
Do I have to jump?
[17:49] Ku
When I'm practically stuck to the wall?
[17:52] Ku
Only when climbing do I actually realize
[17:54] Ku
how hard the next hold is to really secure.
[17:58] Ku
And she one-shot it? No...
[18:02] Ku
How is that possible?
[18:06] Comm
Ooba falls!
[18:08] Ku
Oh, for the love of...
There goes the one-shot.
[18:11] Ku
I have to bounce back from this,
no matter what!
[18:14] Comm
Did Ooba slip just now? How unlike her.
[18:22] K
An overhang with an incline
almost as steep as a roof...
[18:25] K
This type of wall is my worst nightmare,
because it needs so much physical strength.
[18:30] K
Do I put both feet on the volume
and do a sit start of sorts?
[18:34] K
No, that's not right.
[18:35] K
If I do that, it'll put the
third pocket just out of reach.
[18:39] K
Instead, I should deadpoint the nearby
pocket and turn away from the volume.
[18:44] K
Okay, next hold...
[18:47] Comm
The others are already on their
second and third attempts,
[18:51] Comm
but Kasahara remains rooted to the spot.
[18:53] Comm
We saw this when she attempted
Problems A and B, too.
[18:56] Comm
Her style is to take her time analyzing
the route before sending it in one.
[19:00] Comm
She climbs in a completely different
manner to the other competitors.
[19:04] Ki
I knew Master's analytic skills
were good, but not this good.
[19:09] Ki
Uh... is she mumbling to herself?
[19:11] N
Oh, man.
[19:13] N
That gave me a start the
first time I saw it, too.
[19:17] N
But you know what?
[19:18] N
Konomin is super good when she
gets in the zone like this!
[19:25] K
And to finish it off, it's crucial
to do a toe hook with my right foot.
[19:30] K
That'll let me reach the
top hold with my left hand.
[19:33] K
Okay, I solved it.
[19:34] K
Now I just have to trace
that solution with my body.
[19:38] Comm
Kasahara finally makes her move.
Will she be able to climb as she envisioned?
[19:41] As
The observation process is only mental,
at the end of the day.
[19:44] As
The actual climb is a whole
different can of worms.
[19:46] As
If you have time, making several
attempts like the others are doing
[19:51] As
and familiarizing your body with
the route is the better option.
[19:54] Ki
But Master's one-shot both problems so far.
[19:57] Ki
She's climbing like she's made
countless attempts already.
[20:00] As
That's what makes it so impressive.
[20:02] As
She solves the problems in her
mind with insane precision.
[20:05] K
I was desperate to do well in
these semis after making it here,
[20:10] K
but that doesn't matter right now!
[20:14] K
I'm having so much fun!
[20:15] K
Unlike the prelims, you can't glean
any information from other climbers.
[20:19] K
And I had no idea solving problems
with no beta was this fun.
[20:24] K
I mean, in my eyes, these on-sighting walls
[20:27] K
are like brand-new puzzles
designed just for me!
[20:39] K
And if they're puzzles, I gotta solve them.
[20:41] K
I gotta clear them all the way!
[20:49] Ku
No way.
[20:50] Ku
She one-shot three routes in a row?
[21:00] Ku
This is it. I must send it this time.
[21:03] Ku
If I keep falling, I'll...
[21:09] Ku
Why?
[21:10] Ku
Why can you climb these walls, but not I?
[21:15] Ku
I refuse to accept this sacrilege!
[21:29] Ku
Eek!
[21:33] Comm
And that's time up!
[21:35] Comm
Ooba couldn't finish solving the problem!

problem while the others start climbing.
[03:51] Comm
Will she send it in one again?
[03:54] Ki
Master's incredible.
[03:56] G
No.
[03:59] G
This doesn't look good.
[04:08] Ku
Oh, come on!
[04:11] Ku
How is she so calm and composed?
[04:14] Ku
It gets on my nerves!
[04:19] K
A flat wall with several large volumes.
[04:22] K
It tests your balance and strength.
[04:29] K
The foothold to the left of the
zone hold will be hard to reach.
[04:39] K
I could campus it.
[04:41] K
The key is to grab the perfect
part of the zone hold.
[04:44] K
Okay, next is the crux.
[04:46] K
i wAnt... tO PuSh...
[04:50] K
my right side into the wall to climb,
[04:53] K
but I'll have to get into the corner snug
[04:56] K
TO... dO... tHat...
[05:00] K
The v0Lume's EdgE shoulD...
[05:04] K
What the...?
[05:09] K
That's weird. I can't fully analyze it.
[05:13] K
What's come over me?
[05:15] Comm
Kasahara's taking even longer than usual.
[05:19] Comm
Will she have enough time to climb?
[05:21] Nak
She takes her time analyzing
the route before sending it in one.
[05:25] Nak
That's Kasahara Konomi's climbing style.
[05:28] Nak
As long as she has the time to make
one attempt, that should be enough for her.
[05:32] Comm
Whoa, there she goes!
[05:35] K
I took longer than I wanted to.
[05:38] K
I'll have to hurry!
[05:40] K
Okay, the zone comes next.
[05:42] K
I'll grab this hold,
[05:43] K
and then push up with my right foot.
[05:54] Comm
She falls!
[05:55] Comm
She slips now, of all times! A crying shame!
[06:01] Comm
She couldn't send every semis problem in one.
[06:04] K
Huh? Why?
[06:06] Comm
And that's time up!
[06:15] Comm
But she's still done incredibly well
to send three out of four problems.
[06:20] Comm
Kasahara has made a real splash on the scene!
[06:21] K
I could've done better...
[06:24] K
Where'd that weird noise come from?
[06:27] K
Why did I slip?
[06:28] N
Nice, Konomin!
[06:30] Ki
You're awesome, Master.
[06:33] As
Three sends right off the bat?
[06:36] As
Maybe I was taking her too lightly.
[06:38] As
I thought I had her all figured
out after feeling up her feet.
[06:42] G
Now she just needs to build up
strength and stamina.
[06:45] G
If she does, sending everything
in one won't be out of reach.
[06:57] Mas
I hear applause, but not loud cheering.
[07:00] Mas
She must've fallen.
[07:02] J
Still, she ended up with three sends.
[07:05] J
Way to go, Konomi!
[07:08] Chin
A marvelous showing.
[07:12] Chin
That makes things even more fun.
[07:15] Chin
I can't wait to see how her results
will warp the faces of everyone here.
[07:24] Chin
Yes, yes, yes, yes...
[07:28] Comm
Whoa, another fall!
[07:31] Comm
The stars of the prelims can
barely climb these walls!
[07:34] Comm
This is how difficult these problems are!
This is how different the semis are!
[07:39] G
I thought this would be easy...
[07:42] G
...but I can't even reach the
zone holds, let alone finish!
[07:45] Hif
Nobody's finishing all of a sudden.
[07:48] An
They're semifinal problems.
This is how it usually goes.
[07:51] An
They're doing what they can,
but that's not enough.
[07:54] Hif
But that Kasahara Konomi girl from
Hanamiya was sending them with ease.
[07:58] An
Wasn't she so cool, Kurusu?
[08:00] An
She cool Kuruised through it all.
[08:02] Bo
Kasahara Konomi made the crowd go
crazy multiple times on these walls?
[08:07] Bo
What is she, some kind of monster?!
[08:10] An
She's not that cute, though.
[08:13] Hif
You think?
[08:14] An
What?
[08:15] Hif
Y-You're right.
[08:16] An
Make yourself clear.
[08:18] K
...ng... ong...
[08:20] K
That's wrong.
[08:29] K
No, don't toe hook that.
[08:32] K
With your reach, you should...
[08:34] Kuma
And now the crowd's fallen silent.
[08:37] Kuma
What's going on?
[08:39] Ri
Are the walls easy or hard? Which is it?
[08:44] Ku
If she could climb these,
[08:47] Ku
there is no way I can't.
[08:50] Ku
I'll finish this time, for sure.
[08:59] Comm
Ooba falls.
[09:03] Nak
Ooba's crashed face-first into
the semifinal wall... No.
[09:09] Nak
Into the wall called Kasahara Konomi!
[09:12] Nak
And it's not only her. Everyone in
these semis has pride in themselves,
[09:16] Nak
but they can't unhear the cheers for Kasahara,
who squeaked in at 20th place.
[09:23] Nak
"If #20 could one-shot these,"
[09:25] Nak
"of course I can, too!"
[09:27] Nak
But they can't,
[09:29] Nak
and that makes them panic.
[09:31] Ku
This time...
[09:32] Ku
I have to do it this time!
[09:35] Nak
They panic and make mistakes,
and the more mistakes they make...
[09:48] Kur
This is nothing!
[09:50] Comm
And time's up!
[09:53] Comm
Ooba fails to finish yet again.
[09:58] Comm
She hasn't sent any of the
three problems so far.
[10:02] Ku
Why?
[10:03] Ku
How could you one-shot these walls
when you're new to the sport?
[10:09] Ku
Seriously, what is your deal?
[10:13] Ku
Why are you like this?!
[10:17] Comm
Next up, we have Ooba on Problem D,
[10:19] Comm
and Uehara from Hanamiya Girls'
attempting Problem A.
[10:23] K
Again, that crux needs...
[10:26] N
Jun-chan!
[10:30] J
I was in good form during the prelims.
[10:33] J
I'm going to keep that up,
follow Konomi's lead,
[10:38] J
and one-shot this!
[10:45] Ku
The final problem...
[10:47] Ku
This is it! Understand?
[11:26] K
No, wrong.
[11:29] K
It's a tough combination.
[11:31] K
You have to make sure you don't swing off.
[11:35] Comm
Uehara falls.
[11:37] J
What's with this crux?
[11:39] J
I have to jump to reach it,
[11:41] J
but if I jump too far I swing right off.
[11:44] J
Konomi sent this?
[11:45] J
In one?
[11:53] J
No... I can't just let that happen.
[12:16] Comm
Wow, Ooba suddenly let out a massive scream.
[12:19] Comm
What could be the matter?
[12:22] Ku
I get it.
[12:24] Ku
I hate to admit it, but I have to.
[12:27] Ku
Kasahara Konomi's currently
in a different league than me.
[12:31] Ku
What matters now is accepting it and
contributing what I can to Caterno's bid.
[12:37] Ku
If I can't finish,
I have to go for the sure points.
[12:42] Ku
That's the focus!
[12:43] Comm
Ooba secures the zone hold!
[12:46] Ku
This is really as far as I can go.
[12:49] Comm
Huh? She falls?
[12:51] Comm
What happened? She seems to have given up.
[12:54] Nak
That scream of hers was
a resigned war cry, huh?
[12:59] Nak
Or should I call it a fall cry?
[13:04] Nak
She may have been sending
a message to her teammates.
[13:08] Ku
I got the zone. That's enough for now.
[13:11] Ku
I'll leave the rest to Captain and Rina-san.
[13:15] Ku
Kasahara-san...
[13:18] Ku
Things won't go this way next time!
[13:26] K
Huh? Jun-chan?
[13:29] Comm
And that's time up.
[13:32] Comm
Uehara couldn't clear or
secure the zone in Problem A.
[13:42] K
How?
[13:44] N
Jun-chan! You can do it next time!
[13:50] Comm
It's time for Uehara to attempt Problem B.
[14:08] J
Damn it!
[14:14] Comm
She falls!
[14:18] Comm
She falls again!
[14:21] Comm
It's Uehara's turn to attempt Problem C.
[14:24] N
Hang in there! You can do it!
[14:36] Comm
What? Another fall?
[14:43] Comm
Uehara has to attempt Problem D
when it's all going wrong for her.
[14:56] Comm
She falls!
[14:57] Comm
What could be the problem? She's lacking
the edge she showed in the prelims.

[16:47] (Flashback) J
I didn't get what's so good about it.
[16:50] (Flashback) Har
I like the brutal honesty.
[16:53] (Flashback) Har
Honestly, I don't find it very good, either.
[16:57] (Flashback) J
Then... why?
[16:59] (Flashback) Har
Well, I've gotta hold up
my end of the conversation.
[17:04] (Flashback) J
I don't agree with that, Haruna.
[17:07] (Flashback) J
If it's boring,
[17:09] (Flashback) J
forcing yourself to watch it so you
can talk about it is pointless.
[17:12] (Flashback) Har
You're so serious about everything.
[17:15] (Flashback) Har
Anyway, I went and watched

[17:18] (Flashback) Har
It was crazy! And you do that?
[17:21] (Flashback) J
Yeah.
[17:23] (Flashback) Har
I want to see you climbing.

Whoa.

This is cool!
[18:07] (Flashback) Har

Can I come again?
[18:12] (Flashback) Har
We should climb together sometime.
[18:17] (Flashback) Har
What's wrong?
[18:18] (Flashback) J
Bouldering's not just a game for me.
[18:22] (Flashback) J
You don't have to force yourself to join me.
[18:28] (Flashback) J
It's not a sport you can
just pick up on a whim.
[18:34] (Flashback) J
Do you want to take it up seriously?

Aren't you just going along with what
I like, like you do with BolChan?

[18:44] (Flashback) J
If that's how you feel, then don't bother!
[18:49] (Flashback) Har
I didn't mean to...

You don't have to patronize me.
[19:06] (Flashback) J
Just find something that you enjoy.

And when you do, take it seriously.

Sorry, not right now.
[21:12] K
Jun...
[21:21] J
That last attempt...
[21:22] J
I could've still climbed, but I didn't.
[21:28] J
I was so afraid of falling again,
my heart straight-up rejected the wall.
[21:43] J
A climber too scared to climb could never
produce the kind of results they want.
[21:50] J
I'm a total failure of a climber!

I don't feel any pain.
[03:22] S
It's likely a light tear,
[03:24] S
which will heal in a couple of
weeks if I'm careful with it.
[03:29] S
That's the problem. I need to
be careful with it starting now.
[03:37] S**
I get it.
[03:38] S
I know I shouldn't be climbing in this state.
[03:41] S
But if I stop now, the two sends I made
might not be enough to qualify for the finals.

We need at least one more
member in the finals,

[03:57] S
Now that I've taped it up, I can
do better than my last attempt.

I need to flash this problem

She put on a real show here today!
[08:35] K
I'm... in the finals?
[08:39] S
That's an amazing result, Konomi-san.
[08:42] S
With our rankings, we have a real
shot at the team championship.
[08:46] S
Let's both do our best.
[08:47] N
No, Sayo-chin!
[08:49] N
You're hurt! Absolutely no more climbing!
[08:53] K
Huh? Hurt?
[08:54] N
Call it quits here this time.
[08:56] S
But Nono...
[08:58] N
No buts!
[08:59] N
You pushed yourself back there
to reassure me, didn't you?
[09:03] N
I can tell!
[09:04] N
No more!
[09:07] N
I don't expect you to
compete through an injury.
[09:09] N
That's the last thing I want!
[09:12] K
Um...
[09:14] S
Fine.
[09:16] S
I'll withdraw from the finals, as Nono says.
[09:20] K
Captain...
[09:21] S
I'm terribly sorry to make you take such
a big stage all by yourself, Konomi-san,
[09:27] S
but you're going to represent Hanamiya.
[09:29] S
The team championship is out of reach,
but you can go for individual glory.
[09:34] S
Do your best and see how far you can go.
[09:37] K
G-Got it!
[09:42] K
But...
[09:44] K
We've all worked so hard in order
to win the team championship.
[09:48] K
I don't want to give up on it yet.
[09:50] K
I can't!
[09:52] K
Hanamiya's still gonna
take home the team crown!
[09:55] Chin
Yes, yes, yes...
[09:58] Chin
Good day, Kasahara-san.
[10:02] Chin
You had a truly lovely look
on your face as you climbed.
[10:10] Chin
As I thought,
[10:13] Chin
you'll make for a feast unlike any other.
[10:16] K
Wha...
[10:17] K
What do you mean, feast?!
[10:19] Chin
A delicious treat.
[10:20] K
I... I am not edible!
[10:23] K
Be seeing you!
[10:24] Chin
Toodles.
[10:32] Mas
Fifth in the semifinals,
[10:34] Mas
and Iwamine-san, who I considered my rival,
isn't even thinking about me now.
[10:39] Mas
She's way more interested
in the rookie who beat me.
[10:44] Mas
Why? Why am I like this?
[10:48] Mas
If I can't deliver in the clutch, I'm just...
[10:52] Mas
I'm just a pink elephant!
[10:55] Mas
How can I call myself the team's captain?
[10:58] Ri
You mean white elephant.
[11:02] Ri
That's the phrase you were looking for.
[11:05] Mas
Rina.
[11:06] Ri
And you're wrong.
[11:08] Ri
You're no white elephant.
[11:16] G
Captain Masumin!
[11:18] G
We looked all over for you!
[11:20] G
Congratulations on making the finals!
[11:23] G
You tackled those crazy-hard
problems and actually qualified!
[11:26] G
That's our Captain Masumin!
[11:30] Ku
I'm certain you'll dominate the finals.
[11:34] G
Captain Masumin!
[11:36] Ku
Captain Masumin.
[11:39] Comm
Niijima fails to finish
on her ninth attempt, too!
[11:42] Nii
These final problems are so tough. But...
[11:47] Nii
Never give...
[11:48] Comm
Ah, she couldn't get in a tenth attempt.
[11:51] Comm
Oops...
[11:54] Comm
Now, next up is fifth place from the semis,
[11:56] Comm
Caterno's ace, Fujita Masumi.
[12:00] Mas
I've kept you waiting, Caterno.
[12:03] Mas
I have one goal: victory!
[12:08] Comm
Fujita didn't perform to her
lofty standards in the semis.
[12:12] Comm
How will she climb in the finals?
[12:16] Mas
Watch me, guys.
[12:19] Mas
This is my...
[12:21] Mas
Fujita Masumi brand of climbing!
[12:26] Comm
So fast! It's almost like
she's speed climbing!
[12:30] Comm
Has Fujita regained her usual touch?
[12:33] Mas
I'd gotten it all wrong in my head.
[12:36] Mas
I kept telling myself I had
to live up to expectations...
[12:41] Mas
Paralyzing myself with fear!
[12:44] Comm
So fast!
[12:45] Comm
Too fast!
[12:46] Comm
Fujita's already just one
move away from the top!
[12:49] Nak
No, two moves away.
[12:52] Mas
But the team set me straight.
[12:56] Mas
They told me how wrong I was,
that I didn't need to be scared...
[13:00] Mas
And I'll trust them!
[13:05] Mas
Nothing scares me anymore!
[13:08] Nak
Wha...
[13:16] Comm
Sh-She sends it!
[13:18] Comm
This route requires two moves from there,
but she only needed one!
[13:22] Comm
The springs on this girl! She lives up
to her moniker of Black Panther!
[13:26] Mas
Hell yeah!
[13:27] Nak
Th-That's not the right
move... It's not beautiful...
[13:33] Nak
but I still found myself entranced!
[13:35] Nak
How I have failed myself!
[13:38] All
Captain Masumin!
[13:39] All
Way to go!
[13:40] All
So cool!
[13:40] All
We love you!
[13:46] Mas
The tramp...
[13:47] Mas
The tramp is here!
[13:50] Ri
I think you mean "the champ is here."
SIGN The tramp champ is here
[13:54] Ri
Why is she always such a dumbass?
[13:57] Ku
The Captain Masumin we love is heroic
and a little bit of an airhead.
[14:03] Ku
Even when she's hurting, she never
shows it and gives it her all.
[14:06] Ri
We've all noticed, though.
[14:08] Ku
That's precisely why we
can trust her to lead us.
[14:11] Ri
Bingo.
[14:17] Ku
Kasahara-san.
[14:18] Ku
I may have lost to you,
[14:21] Ku
but know that we aren't down and out yet.
[14:25] Comm
Next up is fourth place from
the semis, Kasahara Konomi.
[14:31] Comm
Listen to those cheers.
[14:32] Comm
Her performance in the semis
must've really made an impression.
[14:36] Comm
In the finals—
[14:36] Nak
Kasahara's in her element here!
[14:39] Nak
Because the finals follow
the World Cup finals format!
[14:44] Nak
All climbers have already
seen the problems beforehand,
[14:47] Nak
so there's no need to be worried
about losing time analyzing them.
[14:51] Nak
So, Kasahara Konomi, an on-sight climber
who can one-shot routes she can analyze,
[14:57] Nak
couldn't be more suited to the format!
[15:00] Nak
In other words,
[15:00] Comm
Okay, okay.
[15:01] Nak
she's my favorite to win!
[15:01] Comm
Calm down, Nakata-san!
[15:02] U
I wonder how she'll do this time.
[15:05] Maru
She might one-shot again, she might!
[15:08] G
We certainly know she can.
[15:10] N
Good luck, Konomin!
[15:11] Ki
Good luck, Master!
[15:14] An
Let's see how this plays out.
[15:20] K
I'm done with the analytic process.
[15:23] K
I've conquered all these problems in my mind.
[15:28] K
Watch me, Captain, Nono-san...
[15:32] K
And Jun-chan.
[15:34] K
I...
[15:36] K
I'm going to lead Hanamiya to victory...
[15:46] Nak
Huh?
[15:47] An
Aw...
[15:49] Hi
Anne-chan, it's time to go.
[15:51] An
Aw!
[15:53] An
But that was fun.
[15:55] An
Later, everyone. Stay Cool, Kurusu.
[15:57] C
Cool, Kurusu!
[16:00] K
Wait...
[16:02] K
What?
[16:05] Comm
We're ready to begin the Kanto Bouldering
Championships' awards ceremony.
[16:10] Comm
We begin with the individual championship.
[16:13] Comm
In third place, Matsuhashi
High's Niijima Kaoru!
[16:17] Nii
Dreams come true!
[16:19] Comm
The runner-up is Kurikawa
High's Iwamine Chinari.
[16:23] Chin
I lost.
[16:25] Comm
And our champion,
[16:27] Comm
St. Caterno Girls' Fujita Masumi!
[16:33] All
Captain Masumin!
[16:36] Comm
Both Fujita and Iwamine
sent all the problems,
[16:40] Comm
but Fujita came out on
top with fewer attempts.
[16:41] Mas
Thank you, everyone!
[16:44] Comm
She sure was on fire in the finals.
[16:48] Comm
She seemed determined to
one-shot everything in her way.
[16:50] Comm
You could say she earned this
victory through sheer willpower.
[16:54] Nak
Beautiful...
[16:55] Nak
In this moment, you girls are
the very definition of beauty!
[16:59] Nak
Is there anything that can
surpass this glory? I say nay!
[16:59] Comm
Moving on, we present the team championship.
[17:02] Comm
Our champion team...
[17:05] Maru
Kurikawa High, it is!
[17:08] Comm
Having two climbers in the
finals played a huge part.
[17:13] Comm
Now, let's get the thoughts of the
individual climbers on the podium.
[17:19] K
Man, I didn't win us the team championship.
[17:27] K
Why couldn't I climb at all back there?
[17:31] K
I knew the right moves to make in my head,
[17:34] K
but I couldn't do anything on the walls.
[17:39] K
I have such a long way to go.
[17:42] K
This is the real world of sport climbing.
[17:45] K
And this is my reality.
[17:48] K
Man...
[17:50] K
Guess I should've known.
[18:01] K
Wrong!
[18:03] K
I wanna climb way more!
[18:05] K
I can climb way more!
[18:07] K
I have to!
[18:09] K
I wanna be the best in Japan with the team!
[18:12] K
Jun-chan!
[18:14] K
Jun-chan, I'll keep climbing.
[18:17] K
Yeah, it'll be all right.
Let's do our best together.
[18:22] K
Jun-chan!
[18:25] K
Uh, where's Jun-chan?
[18:29] S
She asked for time off from the team.
[18:33] K
Time off?
[18:35] S
Yes.
[18:37] K
Are you saying Jun-chan's leaving?
[18:43] S
Not quite.
[18:44] S
A little before the closing ceremony...
[18:48] (Flashback) S
Where is this coming from, Jun?
[18:51] (Flashback) J
This competition helped me realize that
I have a mental weakness in my game.
[18:56] (Flashback) J
After thinking about it,
[18:58] (Flashback) J
I figured I should take a
long, hard look at how I climb
[19:01] (Flashback) J
and decided to train by myself for a while.
[19:04] (Flashback) S
But you can do that without
time away from the team.
[19:08] (Flashback) S
You don't have to distance yourself from us.
[19:12] (Flashback) J
That simply won't work.
[19:13] (Flashback) S
Why not?
[19:15] (Flashback) J
I'm sorry.
[19:16] (Flashback) S
Hey...
[19:17] (Flashback) S
Wait, Jun!
[19:22] K
It's my fault.
[19:24] K
I should've gone with her back then.
[19:28] N
Wait, what? What are you talking about?
[19:31] K
I did this...
[19:32] S
Konomi-san, this was Jun's decision.
[19:35] S
You shouldn't feel responsible.
[19:37] K
But she's always helping me out,
[19:41] K
and I couldn't do anything in the finals...
[19:44] S
I doubt that was a factor, either.
[19:46] N
Yeah, Jun wouldn't let that get to her.
[19:51] S
There's just one thing we can say for sure.
[19:55] S
Jun will come back to us...
[19:58] S
in time for the Combined Japan
High School Cup in six months.
[20:03] K
The Combined Japan High School Cup?
[20:06] S
Right. Lead, bouldering, speed...
[20:10] S
In this national competition, climbers
compete in all three disciplines.
[20:13] N
It has the same format as
the world championships.
[20:15] S
Indeed. And it is our ultimate goal.
[20:19] N
If Jun doesn't come back by then,
what'll we do for the team competition?
[20:24] S
Relax. We can trust Jun to keep her word.
[20:28] S
She'll find her answer and return, I know it.
[20:32] S
But we'll have no right to welcome
her back if we remain as we are.
[20:37] S
Nono, in the next six months,
[20:40] S
you need to absorb as much
climbing knowledge as you can.
[20:43] S
If you could discern whether you had the
advantage or not on a particular wall,
[20:48] S
you would've fared very
differently in this competition.
[20:52] S
Yeah.
[20:53] S
And, Konomi-san,
[20:54] S
you're severely lacking in experience.
[20:58] S
In actual competition, the tension
wears you out more than you realize.
[21:02] S
That's just something
you'll have to get used to,
[21:06] S
so you'll enter every competition you can.
[21:11] K
I...
[21:12] S
Eyes up here, Konomi-san.
[21:15] S
Do you want to keep hanging your head in
shame when Jun's trying to hold hers high?
[21:20] S
I'm certain you can get past
this wall in your way, too.
[21:26] K
I understand.
[21:27] K
I'll do everything I can
over the next six months.
[21:31] K
I'll make sure I have a real surprise in
store for Jun-chan when she comes back.
[21:36] S
That's the spirit.
[21:38] N
Let's do this.
[21:39] S
For Jun-chan!
[21:40] S
And for victory for Hanamiya!
[21:44] S
Hanamiya High Climbing Team,
aim for best in Japan.
[21:48] S
Let's climb!
[21:54] K
I'll do my best!
[21:56] K
So, wait for me, Jun-chan!

Kasahara is amazing us with her skills!
[00:06] Mc
Incredible!
[00:08] Mc
Appearing out of nowhere half a year ago
and taking several competitions by storm,
[00:11] Mc
she became climbing's new star!
[00:13] Mc
Her analytic skills, which help her one-shot
routes like she climbed 'em for years,
[00:17] Mc
are being called "Murder Observation"!
Mamma mia, how marvelous!
[00:21] N
Way to go, Konomin. She's looking good.
[00:24] S
"Murder," though? That's not very nice.
[00:27] N
It fits though, when you
see her in the zone.
[00:31] K
Next up, the crux. The last hold.
[00:33] K
I need to wedge my fingers
in at the very top.
[00:35] K
Wedge my fingers in at
the top of the sloper...
[00:37] K
Top of the sloper...

Entering all those competitions over
the past six months has really helped.
[02:36] S
You've built up more stamina and gotten
used to the competitive atmosphere.
[02:40] N
Yeah, yeah!
[02:41] N
You're attracting more
attention from the guys, too.

[03:17] K
Kurusu Anne-san?
[03:19] An
Everyone... Cool Kurusu!
[03:22] C
Cool Kurusu!
[03:25] K
Whoa.
[03:26] S
Didn't you know? She's scheduled to perform
an exhibition climb here in a bit.
[03:30] N
Seriously? Let's go watch!
[03:32] An
Thanks for greeting me,
everyone! Cool Kurusu!
[03:36] C
Not at all! Cool Kurusu!

A Cool Kurusu to you all!

Hey, it's Yotsuba Sayo-chan!
[03:47] N
Huh? Do you know her?!
[03:50] S
I don't.
[03:51] K
Uh, she's coming this way.
[03:54] An
Long time, no see.
[03:56] An
I haven't seen you since that
last competition, Yotsuba-chan.
[03:59] S
Yes.
[04:00] S
I'm honored that someone who competes with
climbers all over the world remembers me.
[04:07] An
Why wouldn't I, Cool Kurusu?
[04:09] An
You, Iwamine-chan, and Fujita-chan are
famous as the Three Climbing Dames.
[04:15] An
Oh, what's this?
[04:17] An
Aren't you Kasahara Konomi-chan?
I didn't know you were here, too!
[04:20] K
What? You know of me?
[04:23] An
Of course I do. Kasahara Konomi-chan,
with the Murder Observation.
[04:27] An
Everyone in climbing is talking
about you now, Cool Kurusu!
[04:32] K
Oh, you flatter me!
[04:34] An
I've been wanting to meet you.
[04:39] An
Say, Konomi-chan, do you
mind being friends with me?
[04:43] K
Huh? Uh, I'd love to.
[04:46] An
Yay! That's so cool, Kurusu!
[04:48] An
Oh, right.
[04:51] An
Guys, I have an announcement!
[04:53] C
What's this?
[04:53] C
Are they doing something together?
[04:55] C
Are Anne-chan and Kasahara Konomi
up to something?
[04:55] C
What is it? What is it?
[04:57] An
I want to hold an exhibition match,
Anne vs. Kasahara Konomi.
[05:03] An
Me climbing by myself would just be boring.
[05:07] K
Wai...
[05:08] An
Gotta live up to expectations, right?
[05:12] K
A duel?
[05:14] S
It's a discipline you sometimes
see in competition finals.
[05:18] S
Climbers get one minute to observe, then
attempt the same problem simultaneously.
[05:22] S
Whoever finishes first wins.
[05:24] S
It's basically like the halfway
point between speed and bouldering.
[05:28] N
Anyway, it's just something
Anne-chan came up with on a whim,
[05:32] N
so you could just turn it down.
[05:34] S
I personally don't see a need to refuse.
[05:36] K
Of course I'll do it.
[05:38] K
Gotta live up to expectations.
[05:41] Bo
"Expectations"?
[05:43] Mc
Ladies and gentlemen!
[05:45] Mc
The exhibition match of a
lifetime is about to begin!
[05:48] Mc
The rules are simple.
[05:49] Mc
Whoever presses their button
atop the wall first wins!
[05:52] Mc
First, we have today's champion, Kasahara
Konomi, with her Murder Observation!
[05:59] Mc
Her opponent: ruler of the girls'
climbing world, the Princess of Climbing,
[06:03] Mc
Kurusu Anne!
[06:05] An
Cool Kurusu!
[06:07] C
Anne-chan!
[06:09] Mc
Okay, start the observation process!
[06:15] K
A wall with an overhang...
[06:16] K
Not many moves to make. Maybe five or six.
[06:18] K
Most of the moves involve
pushing, not pulling,
[06:21] K
including the crux at the end
which requires a mantel.
[06:24] K
But I can't gauge the distance
to the top from here.
[06:27] Mc
Observation time's up!
[06:29] K
What? Already?
[06:30] K
I'm not done yet.
[06:32] Mc
Let's start the exhibition match!
[06:34] Mc
Three, two, one... Go!
[06:35] K
I'll push down on the hold
with my wrist and reach out.
[06:42] K
Okay, so far, so good.
[06:45] K
Now to mantel the crux.
[06:52] K
S-So far!
[06:55] K
Get it!
[06:56] K
Almost there!
[06:58] An
You're almost there.
[07:02] An
You can do this, Konomi-chan! Hang in there!
[07:07] An
Come on! Come on!
[07:11] K
I was no match for her.
[07:14] An
Konomi-chan.
[07:15] An
Thanks for accepting this sudden match up.
[07:19] An
I had lots of fun!
[07:25] An
Guys, give Konomi-chan a big Cool Kurusu!
[07:29] C
Konomi-chan! Cool Kurusu!
[07:32] An
Konomi-chan.
[07:34] An
Let's climb together again sometime.
[07:37] K
Sure.
[07:40] K
I've got so much to learn.
[07:42] K
I climb so slowly, too.
[07:45] An
Cool Kurusu! Your heart's
going on a cool Kuruise!
[07:49] K
Anne-san?
[07:51] An
Wow, do you always post-climb
analyze by yourself?
[07:56] K
Oh, I guess.
[07:57] An
So admirable!
[07:58] K
N-Not really.
[08:00] K
I realized I have so far
to go after that match up.
[08:05] An
You do? I don't think so!
[08:08] K
I do.
[08:09] K
But, one day, I want to be able to win those.
[08:13] K
Not just for myself, but for Hanamiya, too.
[08:17] K
And I want us to win the Combined Japan
High School Cup in two months' time!
[08:22] An
Huh... You want Hanamiya to win?
[08:25] K
Yes! It's our dream!
[08:28] An
Nyuk, nyuk, Cool Nyuks.
[08:31] An
That is just not gonna happen.
[08:34] An
Look at you, letting a teensy-weensy
bit of attention get to your head.
[08:39] An
"Murder Observation"?
"The Three Climbing Dames"?
[08:43] An
It makes me laugh. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
[08:46] An
Allow me to enlighten you.
You girls have no chance in hell,
[08:50] An
because yours truly is gonna
enter that competition.
[08:53] An
Sucks to be you. You can't beat
Kokureikan High with me, a pro, leading it.
[08:58] An
With Hanamiya, of all schools?
Do you even have any decent climbers?
[09:02] An
In the Kanto championships,
one was knocked out in the prelims.
[09:05] An
One in the semis.
One withdrew from the finals.
[09:08] An
And then, you...
[09:11] An
What do you think you girls can even do?
[09:13] An
Come to think of it,
[09:14] An
I haven't seen one of you in a while.
Did she give it up?
[09:18] An
Smart choice. Not like she had
any talent for this, anyway.
[09:22] An
Your little "dream" will remain just that!
[09:25] K
Why... Why would you say
such hurtful things?!
[09:28] An
Why, you ask?
[09:36] An
Because the truth hurts.
[09:38] K
I'm going to beat you and win
the Combined Japan High School Cup!
[09:43] An
You what?
[09:48] An
Cool Kurusu would love to see you try.
[09:53] Hi
Welcome back.
[09:54] Hi
How'd the exhibition climb go?
[09:58] An
I wasn't the least bit excited about
entering a high school competition,
[10:02] An
but now I'm looking forward to it a little.
[10:06] N
You and Anne-chan talked in the showers?
[10:09] K
Y-Yeah.
[10:11] S
She's entering, is she?
[10:13] ---
Yeah.
[10:14] N
As if Kokureikan wasn't a
powerhouse without her, too.
[10:18] S
Oh, they aren't the only
powerhouses we're up against.
[10:22] S
You learned something important
in that exhibition match, didn't you?
[10:27] K
I did.
[10:28] K
I'm not fast enough.
[10:30] S
Correct.

When you compete in all three disciplines,
your rankings in each are multiplied
[10:35] S
and the lower your score, the better it is.
[10:38] N
So, it'll be hard to place if
you do badly in any discipline.

What.
[11:47] U
Mew sure embarrassed yourself
in that last bouldering competition.
[11:51] J
Well, if I'm a loser, what does that make you?
You crashed out in the prelims.
[11:55] U
'scuse me?

You started it.

[12:27] U
I'll come and watch for refurrence, okay?
[12:30] U
Uehara-sensei?
[12:32] J
Tch. Do what you want.
[12:37] J
Today, I'll be teaching you
how to identify problems.
[12:41] C
Bouldering!
[12:42] J
Urk, they're so hyper.
[12:45] J
Climbing gyms have a litany of holds,
[12:48] J
and their color represents which problem
they belong to and how difficult it is.
[12:52] J
A set course mapped on a
wall is called a "route."
[12:55] J
Its start is marked by an "S" sticker
and its goal with a "G."
[13:02] C
I don't get it!
[13:04] C
You keep using big words,
Uehara-sensei!
[13:07] J
S-Sorry.
[13:09] J
I thought I was keeping it simple...
[13:13] U
They're really hating on you, Uehara-sensei.
[13:16] J
Not the time for jokes!
[13:17] U
Well, just watch me.

If you can manage to get
your claws into them, you win.
[13:24] U
Hear me, my little kittens.
[13:26] U
You know what bouldering is all about?
[13:29] U
It's a game where mew have to

Collect gems! Game!

Mew!

The mew, too?!

[17:14] U

[17:40] U
Not that mew're a rookie.
[17:43] U
Well, you don't have to accept
if you're a fraidy cat.
[17:46] U

being finished as a climber...
[17:49] U
Along with the Hanamiya team.
[17:52] J

[18:39] U
I couldn't send it,
but I did hit a personal best.
[18:43] U
Now it's Uehara-sensei's turn.
[18:46] C
Do your best, Sensei!
[18:48] U
Hope you're a lucky cat.
[18:50] J
No worries. I'll win.
[19:06] J
My hand... my body's still trembling.
[19:10] J
I'm competing here!
[19:11] C
Go!
[19:12] C

[19:46] U
You think this is a joke?!
[19:50] U
I'm Uchimura Akane, the Rookie Killer
who'll happily do whatever it takes.
[19:54] U
Ending Uehara Jun for good would make me
the cat who swallowed the canary!
[19:57] U
But...
[19:59] U
Quit messing around!
[20:01] U
Is that how my generation's star climbs?
[20:04] U
Mew climb nothing like
the girl I know and hate!
[20:08] U
If you're... If you're really Uehara Jun,
[20:13] U
hurry up and reach the ceiling,
then look down on me from up there!
[20:23] J
I was a perfectly ordinary little girl.
No likes, no goals, no individuality.
[20:29] J
Then I happened to
come across these walls
[20:33] J
and before long, I was obsessed
with the sport of climbing.
[20:36] J
I...
[20:40] C
Sensei!
[20:41] C
You can do it!
[20:42] C
Go!
[20:43] C
Sensei!
[20:45] C
Whoa!
[20:48] C
She got the second gem!
[20:49] C
So cool, Sensei!
[20:56] J
I...
[20:58] J
In the limited time I had at the gym,
[21:00] J
I tried and tried to take in the view
from the top as many times as I could.
[21:04] J
Faster, even faster, over and over again.
[21:08] J
During that process, I became more
and more hooked on climbing.
[21:13] J
At the same time, I started
developing tunnel vision.
[21:18] J
When I saw people not climbing well,
[21:21] J
I'd think, "You can't do this.
Go away and let me climb."
[21:25] J
I couldn't stand people who climbed for fun.
[21:28] J
At some point, I completely forgot.
[21:31] J
Even I...
[21:38] J
Even I only started doing
this because I found it fun!
[21:43] J
And...
[21:45] J
And...
[21:49] J
I loved this view from the top!
[21:52] C
Wow! You did it!
[21:59] U
Th-That's the Uehara Jun I know!
And, one day, I'll destroy her!

Akane-san?

[02:44] J
It shouldn't have come as a surprise.
She's always been like that.

and how fun it could be.

[04:05] N
Has nobody noticed Sayo-chin's
kinda got a screw loose?
[04:08] J
Sure.
[04:09] K
I'm ready for anything you can throw at me.
[04:12] N
How is that possible?
[04:12] J
Well, start with showing me
what you've got right now.
[04:13] N
Is it because I'm too good at the role?
[04:17] K
Okay.
[04:23] K
Speed climbing is all about how fast you can
climb a 15-meter wall with a set route.
[04:29] K
It's basically the 100-meter
dash of climbing.
[04:32] J
Ready?
[04:34] K
Yeah.
[04:39] K
Urk, I knew it.
[04:41] K
For a wall that's supposed
to be climbed quickly,
[04:44] K
why is each hold spaced so far out?
[04:48] K
They're all sloped and hard to grab, too!
[04:55] J
23.87 seconds.
[05:00] J
Here.
[05:01] K
Thanks. How good is 23.87 seconds?
[05:03] J
The average among female high-school
competitors is 16 to 17 seconds.
[05:08] J
Pros clock in around 12.
[05:10] J
Even if speed isn't your strong suit...
[05:12] J
If you wanna qualify for
the Combined Cup finals,
[05:15] J
you've gotta break 15 seconds.
[05:17] K
15 seconds?!
[05:18] K
Let me try again!
[05:19] J
Wait, Konomi.
[05:21] K
Huh?
[05:23] K
What? I only made one attempt,
so why am I this tired already?
[05:28] J
Don't rush things, Konomi.
[05:32] J
Just climbing repeatedly won't help you.
[05:35] J
You have to analyze the nitty-gritties first.
[05:37] K
Nitty-gritties?
[05:41] J
Speed climbing consumes a lot
of energy with each attempt.
[05:46] J
Given that,
[05:47] J
you could split the course into
top, middle, and bottom sections
[05:52] J
and carefully weed out each
part you have difficulty with.
[05:55] J
That won't require as much stamina.
[05:59] J
For us to win,
[06:01] J
each one of us has to get
our times below 15 seconds.
[06:06] J
Start with physical training.
[06:09] J
Lower-body strength is key in speed climbing.
[06:12] J
Increase your vertical by
doing single-leg hurdles.
[06:14] J
You need arm strength not only to pull yourself up
on holds, but also to push down on them.
[06:19] J
Work on your push strength by
bouncing a slam ball over and over.
[06:24] J
The dynos in the top and middle sections
are the cruxes on the speed wall.
[06:28] J
Work on them one at a time and
make sure you can nail them.
[06:31] K
Got it.
[06:32] J
The route is the same everywhere.
[06:35] J
Climb it over and over
[06:36] J
and make your body memorize it.
[06:39] J
Teach it the moves that
help you climb the fastest!
[06:42] K
We will be the best team in Japan!
[06:47] K
Aw...
[06:49] K
I thought my moves had gotten better,
but my time hasn't changed.
[06:53] S
Konomi-san.
[06:55] K
Captain... And Jun-chan.
[06:58] S
There's a multi-school speed training camp
over the long weekend coming up.
[07:03] J
We're both taking part, Konomi.
[07:05] K
A speed training camp...
[07:12] K
Whoa.
[07:14] K
Hey, aren't the Captain
and Nono-san taking part?
[07:20] J
They're practicing one-on-one.
[07:22] J
Besides, this camp is for...
[07:25] U
Of course mew two would be here.
[07:27] U
You may have fared better than
me in the last competition,
[07:31] U
but speed is my...
[07:31] J
Konomi, let's get ready
before everyone gets here.
[07:35] U
Don't ignore my appurreance!
[07:38] J
Oh, I didn't notice you there, Uchimura.
[07:40] J
Well, see ya.
[07:41] U
"See ya," my ass!
[07:43] U
Don't you realize how blessed you are by
Akane-chan-sama the Great's presence?!
[07:46] J
You're more like a curse.
[07:49] U
What you say?!
[07:51] J
Get off me.
[07:52] K
Uh, when did these two get so close?
[07:54] Ku
Goodness gracious.
[07:56] Ku
You ladies are as sprightly as little
children on a school trip.
[08:00] K
Ooba-san?
[08:02] Ku
Bonjour, Kasahara-san.
[08:04] Ku
I have heard lots about your
stellar performances recently.
[08:08] Ku
You seem to be in wonderful touch,
[08:10] Ku
but that only applies to bouldering.
[08:14] Ku
The upcoming Combined Cup will judge you
on all three disciplines, including speed.
[08:18] Ku
I wonder...
[08:20] Ku
Will you be able to shine
just as brightly in speed?
[08:23] Ku
Ever since I tragically
lost to you last time,
[08:26] Ku
I have done nothing but practice
for days... weeks... months!
[08:29] Ku
While the time may not yet
be ripe to repay the favor,
[08:33] Ku
I am very much giddy about climbing
with you during this camp.
[08:43] Ku
Be seeing you soon!
[08:46] U
What is her problem?
Talk about grinding your gears.
[08:49] J
You're one to talk.
[08:52] J
I don't know why, but she really
does seem to have it out for you.
[08:57] Maru
A sign of her confidence, it is.
[08:59] J
Satou Maruno.
[09:01] Maru
Having seen Kasahara-san bouldering,
[09:03] Maru
she must've surmised that she wouldn't
be as good at speed, thus provoking her.
[09:08] Maru
Kasahara-san is the rookie who made
the finals, the eye of the hurricane!
[09:15] Maru
I can understand wanting
to mess with her, I can.
[09:20] Maru
Oh, dear!
[09:21] Maru
I overheard your conversation and
unknowingly went into analytic mode!
[09:25] Maru
I beg your forgiveness, I do!
[09:28] Maru
That said,
[09:29] Maru
I shall take Kasahara-san's
head in the Combined Cup.
[09:33] Maru
See you on the battlefield!
[09:37] U
Wow, look at Li'l Miss Pawpular over here.
[09:40] U
You've got everyone on your tail. I'm envious.
[09:40] J
A multi-school training camp...
[09:43] J
I was expecting others to pile the pressure
on Konomi here, but not this badly.
[09:44] U
You're like a superstar.
I want people to come after me, too,
[09:47] U
and give me monikers like
"Murder Observation," too!
[09:51] J
Uchimura.
[09:54] J
What is wrong with you?
[09:55] K
Jun-chan.
[09:57] K
I'm glad I came to this camp.
[10:01] K
There are so many people here
who want to compete with me.
[10:05] K
I'll do my best, okay?
[10:07] K
I'll produce a time that
won't lose to any of them!
[10:09] J
That's the spirit.
[10:11] Nak
Incredible drive.
[10:14] Nak
Even when you're fully clothed, I can tell...
[10:17] Nak
Compared to last time, your biceps and
extensor muscles look more developed.
[10:23] Nak
So do your gastrocnemii,
the engines that power your speed.
[10:26] Nak
Kasahara Konomi, you really are...
[10:29] Nak
oh so wonderful!
[10:32] J
Konomi? Konomi!
[10:35] J
This is the organizer of this training camp,
[10:38] J
routesetter Nakata-san.
[10:40] Nak
Let's do this!
[10:41] K
R-Right!
[10:42] K
Thank you for having us!
[10:44] J
Thank you.
[10:45] U
Mew.
[10:47] Nak
Welcome to Nakata Camp, everyone.
[10:51] Nak
Some of you may have realized by
looking at the other participants,
[10:54] Nak
but everyone here is a
top-performing first-year.
[10:59] Nak
Currently, there aren't many
facilities that offer a speed wall,
[11:03] Nak
and some of you have never
even touched one in your life.
[11:07] Nak
But that won't do!
[11:09] Nak
So, I organized this camp for first-years.
[11:13] Nak
Speed climbing is a discipline that has
a place in the world championships, too.
[11:17] Nak
You won't be here for long,
but practice all you can
[11:21] Nak
and grow into climbers who will carry
Japan's name in the years to come!
[11:27] Nak
We'll start by timing your attempts.
[11:30] All
Okay!
[11:42] K
What's my time?
[11:45] K
I'm still way off 15 seconds...
[11:49] K
What about the others?
SIGN Hoshi Manami
SIGN Uchimura Akane
SIGN Satou Maruno
SIGN Ooba Kurea
SIGN Takahashi Eri
[11:54] Ku
Oh? I see you've finished, too.
[11:58] Ku
What is your time?
SIGN Ooshima Rika
SIGN Uehara Jun
SIGN Kasahara Konomi
SIGN Saitou Chiaki
[12:01] Ku
Wow, that's a nice time. It puts you
up there with the highest in this camp.
[12:07] Maru
That said, there are many here climbing
a speed wall for the first time.
[12:13] U
You're lucky enough to have a speed
wall at school and this is your time?
[12:18] U
It's a disappointment and a half.
[12:26] Nak
What's the matter?
Why are you sulking over here?
[12:29] K
Nakata-san.
[12:32] Nak
It's only natural that your
time would lag behind.
[12:35] Nak
Why do you think you came to this camp?
[12:39] Nak
Take a look around.
[12:42] Nak
Look at all the climbers
I brought to this camp.
[12:48] Nak
At this training camp,
[12:51] Nak
you can see how climbers from
other schools do things for once,
[12:55] Nak
and pick up new ideas for yourself.
[12:59] Nak
Steal techniques, have yours stolen,
[13:03] Nak
compete with each other, and grow together!
[13:05] Nak
Add a little extra to your beauty!
[13:09] Nak
And then, transform from
a pupa to a butterfly,
[13:11] Nak
take flight from my hands, and one
day soar the skies across the world!
[13:16] Nak
This training camp is a nest built
for beautiful butterflies to emerge!
[13:17] K
Nakata-san! Thank you!
[13:22] K
Nakata-san's right.
[13:24] K
It doesn't matter if I'm lagging behind now.
[13:26] K
I'll use this camp and its participants
to pick up hints for getting faster.
[13:32] K
Anything will do.
[13:36] K
And, finally, I'll figure out
a way to climb my fastest!
[13:41] K
I have to!
[13:43] K
Maruno-san skips over the
wall with her tiny body.
[13:54] K
Okay.
[13:58] K
I see. She can only do this because she's
memorized the holds and their locations.
[14:04] K
She climbs by internalizing each move...
[14:06] K
That's Maruno-san's advantage.
[14:08] K
And...
[14:09] K
Ooba-san climbs with beautiful posture,
as only a former ballerina could.
[14:14] K
Her core and head remain
extraordinarily steady,
[14:16] K
eliminating any concern of her falling.
[14:23] K
The angle at which she
looks upwards is perfect.
[14:26] K
Most climbers tilt their head too far back,
directing their momentum backwards, too.
[14:32] K
But her core and posture
[14:35] K
remain stable even at high speeds.
[14:37] K
That's Ooba-san's advantage.
[14:41] K
It's interesting how they're
climbing the same wall,
[14:43] K
and yet they all climb it
in their own, unique way.
[14:54] Nak
Okay.
[14:54] Nak
We'll time you once more
to finish up the first day.
[15:01] K
I watched how they all climb and practice,
[15:03] K
absorbed the key points,
[15:05] K
and worked on making them mine.
[15:08] K
Now, I just have to put them into practice!
[15:12] Pa
On your marks, ready...
[15:18] K
I internalized the moves required better
[15:20] K
and adjusted my center
of gravity and posture.
[15:23] K
I even changed how I use my ankles
[15:25] K
and how I place my feet on footholds.
[15:28] K
It's working!
[15:29] K
I should hit 15 seconds with this!
[15:35] K
Great! What's my time?
[15:37] K
Huh?
[15:39] K
It's even slower than earlier?
[15:44] K
Why?
[15:54] Ku
My, what's this, Kasahara-san?
[15:57] Ku
Why the gloomy face?
[16:00] Ku
Oh, that was insensitive of me.
[16:02] Ku
Of course you would be gloomy
[16:05] Ku
after climbing so disgracefully earlier.
[16:11] Ku
I assume you tried to copy
someone else's style,
[16:15] Ku
but you were moving so awkwardly,
you looked like a puppet up there.
[16:22] Ku
Can you really shorten your time in
the two days of camp we have left?
[16:27] Ku
Your analytic skills may have landed you
some decent results in lead and bouldering,
[16:32] Ku
but speed appears to be your Achilles heel.
[16:35] Ku
That makes it impossible for Hanamiya's
tiny team to get past the prelims.
[16:41] Ku
All because their promising rookie,
Kasahara Konomi, is like a turtle in speed!
[16:46] K
Yeah...
[16:50] Ku
Wait.
[16:50] Ku
What?
[17:03] Ku
Have you managed to calm down some?
[17:05] K
Thanks.
[17:07] K
Sorry I started crying and stuff.
[17:11] Ku
Don't be.
[17:14] Ku
She was so confident in that competition,
and seemed to be enjoying herself.
[17:19] Ku
Where did that girl go?
[17:21] K
I suck so much, huh?
[17:25] K
I tried to learn your tips and tricks,
but I couldn't use them right.
[17:31] K
Heck, my time got worse, even.
[17:35] K
If I'm wasting my precious time
at speed camp like this,
[17:39] K
I might not even make it past
the prelims, like you said.
[17:44] K
And winning is just out of...
[17:54] Ku
Look...
[17:58] Ku
Look what you've made me do!
[18:00] Ku
I've never slapped anyone in my life before!
[18:04] K
Oh, sorry.
[18:06] Ku
Ever since I lost to you, I've focused
all my energy on beating you.
[18:12] Ku
And look at you...
[18:15] Ku
Why are you acting like such a loser?
So what if you're a little slow?!
[18:19] Ku
This isn't the version of you I want to best!
[18:26] Ku
Oh, for the love of... My hand hurts.
[18:29] Ku
How am I supposed to grab holds like this?
[18:31] K
Uh... Sorry...
[18:36] K
What's so funny?
[18:38] J
I mean, you apologized to
someone who slapped you?
[18:41] K
I did, but it did feel like
I did something wrong...
[18:46] J
Well, that is very like you.
[18:48] K
It is?
[18:50] J
Anyway, good thing you got yelled at, huh?
[18:53] K
Yeah.
[18:54] J
Uchimura snapped at me, too, actually.
[18:57] K
Huh, really? What did she say?
[19:00] J
Uh, well...
[19:03] J
I couldn't tell through all her cat talk.
[19:08] J
It looks like you and I are
more similar than we think.
[19:11] K
Jun-chan...
[19:13] J
And, because of that, I can tell
why your time didn't get better.
[19:20] J
It was you climbing that wall,
but it wasn't your brand of climbing.
[19:25] J
You tried so hard to incorporate
others' ideas, it became a jumbled mess.
[19:30] K
A mess?
[19:31] J
Whether you're able to pick up skills
and whether those skills are suited to you
[19:35] J
are two completely different things.
[19:38] J
Don't go chasing shadows
and lose sight of yourself.
[19:41] J
Pick, choose, and learn
only what works for you.
[19:44] K
True. I might have panicked and tried
to do too many things at once.
[19:49] K
But what else can I do?
[19:52] J
You'll have to figure that out for yourself.
[19:55] J
That's how anyone develops.
[19:57] J
They fight, struggle, and
scale the walls in their way.
[20:01] K
Easy for you to say.
[20:04] K
I'm not strong like you.
[20:07] J
Nah, I was in that place, too.
[20:11] J
During the Kanto Championships,
I was so overwhelmed by your climbing
[20:15] J
my hands stopped moving right.
[20:18] J
I turned my back on all sorts of things
in life to become a better climber.
[20:23] J
But you overtook me like
none of it meant anything.
[20:27] J
I lost sight of myself,
[20:30] J
and I became scared of climbing.
[20:33] K
Jun-chan...
[20:34] J
So, have more faith in yourself.
[20:38] J
Look what you put me through!
[20:40] J
Do everything you can to scale
the wall blocking your path now.
[20:45] J
Overcome it and grow stronger, like I did.
[20:50] J
Don't cry.
[20:51] K
Sorry, Jun-chan.
[20:53] J
Don't apologize, either.
[20:55] K
Okay.
[20:56] K
Thanks, Jun-chan.
[20:59] K
I'll try a little bit harder.
[21:05] Ku
After all those things I said yesterday,
[21:08] Ku
I'll have to give it my
absolute best from here.
[21:12] Ku
Someone's here.
[21:13] Ku
They're practicing so early?
[21:18] Ku
That's more like it.
[21:20] Ku
This is why you're such a worthy target.
[21:32] K
This is hard.
[21:33] K
Exactly how am I supposed to
pick up skills that suit me?
[21:38] K
I have to try to find a way today.

You!

That's a nice hairpin. Let me try it on.
[02:02] K
O-Okay.
[02:06] Mi
How's it look?
[02:07] K
Uh... Cute, I think.
[02:10] Mi
Aw yeah, that's hype!
[02:13] Mi
Er, what were you saying?
[02:15] K
U-Uh, so, after I saw how fast you climb,
[02:18] K
I wanted to ask what you focus on.
[02:22] K
I know you can't give a
rival that information,
[02:26] K
but I really want to know...
[02:29] Mi
Okay!
[02:30] K
Huh? Are you sure?
[02:32] Mi
Yeah, sure. You did call me cute and all.
[02:37] Mi
I'm Takahashi Mimu. Call me Mimu.
[02:40] K
Oh, okay.
[02:42] Mi
You wanna know what I focus on when I climb?
[02:44] ---
Yes.
[02:48] Mi
The answer is rhythm games!
[02:53] K
Rhythm games?
[02:55] Mi
I've always liked grooving to a beat.
[02:59] Mi
I'm a climber first,
but I also dabble in dance.
[03:03] Mi
I see speed climbing
as a game where you gotta
[03:06] Mi
time the holds right as
they scroll down past you.
[03:09] K
A game where you gotta time the holds right?
[03:12] Mi
Yup.
[03:13] Mi
I believe it's important
to maintain your tempo.
[03:16] Mi
It'd suck if I tried to climb too fast,
screwed up my rhythm, and lost time.
[03:21] Mi
It'd be no fun to climb like that, anyway.
[03:24] Mi
The key is your tempo and spacing,
your very own rhythm.
[03:44] K
Thank you very much!
[03:46] Mi
Go get it, Miss Puzzle Piece.
[03:51] K
Jun-chan!
[03:53] K
I got it! It's ta-ta-tan!
[03:55] J
What?
[03:59] K
Ta-ta-tan, ta-ta-ta!
[04:00] J
Ta?
[04:05] K
From the start to five hands up...
[04:08] K
This part goes ta, ta-ta-tan.
[04:12] K
Nah, hang on.
[04:14] K
If I can grab the third hold
with Ooba-san's perfect posture,
[04:18] K
I can go ta, ta-tan.
[04:20] K
Their techniques are blending
into my rhythm.
[04:25] K
They're grooving to my beat!
[04:33] K
I did it!
[04:38] N
All right, then.
[04:39] N
We'll measure your times for the last
time this camp under race conditions.
[04:43] K
I'm up against...
[04:45] Ku
Me.
[04:52] Pa
On your marks, ready...
[05:02] U
Huh? She's way faster than yesterday!
[05:05] Maru
She's keeping up with Ooba-san,
who clocks in around 15 seconds!
[05:08] J
Looking good, Konomi.
[05:10] Mi
That's a nice beat. Makes me wanna dance.
[05:14] K
Ta, ta-ta-tan-tan!
[05:17] K
I'm grooving!
[05:18] K
This is my rhythm!
[05:21] Ku
I see.
[05:22] Ku
I should've seen this coming.
She has made the moves her own.
[05:26] Ku
But it isn't enough.
[05:28] Ku
My climbing won't be bested that easily!
[05:31] Maru
They're almost to the top, they are!
[05:34] U
Who's going to win?!
[05:39] K
It was close, but Ooba takes this race.
[05:47] Ku
She's suddenly become competitive in speed.
[05:50] K
Not even my best was enough to beat Ooba-san.
[05:56] K
I really wanted to win that.
[05:57] J
Konomi!
[05:59] K
Jun-chan?
[06:00] J
Look up!
[06:01] K
Up?
[06:08] K
Yes! I made it under 15 seconds!
[06:11] J
Way to go, Konomi.
[06:13] U
That's faster than me.
[06:15] Maru
I've got some catching up to do, I do.
[06:18] Ku
I wasn't expecting her to
improve her time that much.
[06:24] Ku
But I will keep winning.
[06:31] K
That's my Jun-chan!
[06:35] K
Hanamiya now has a real shot at
winning the team championship.
[06:39] Nak
Girls, you did incredibly well
over these last three days.

Thank you very much.

He's a nice guy, he is.

[07:08] Mi
You looked really good back there.
[07:11] K
All thanks to your advice.
[07:14] K
Thank you again.
[07:16] Mi
Aw, don't mention it.
[07:18] Mi
It got me vibin', so it's a win-win.
[07:22] Mi
A full combo of happiness, a AAA best score!

[08:01] K
Unless we beat both Anne-san
and Mimu-san, we...
[08:06] K
Hanamiya can't win.
[08:08] J
That's right.
[08:10] J
Not much time left.
We've gotta make full use of it.

Yeah.

I've been waiting for you, my dear juniors.
[08:27] N
Let my loving embrace envelop you.
[08:28] K
I-I can't breathe!
[08:31] N
You got your time under 15 seconds, huh?
[08:33] K
Yeah!
[08:34] N
You did well.
[08:35] K
What were you up to while we were gone?
[08:41] K
Nono-san?
[08:43] N
Why'd you have to remind me?
[08:47] N
All day, every day, Sayo-chin
was a teacher from hell
[08:49] N
and made me study up on climbing
in one-on-one sessions.
[08:54] N
Ugh, I felt like I was cramming
for my entrance exams.
[08:59] S
But it helped, didn't it?
[09:02] N
She's here! Hell Teacher Sayo-chin!
[09:04] S
Welcome back.
[09:06] K
Kiku-chan?
[09:07] S
She wants to observe our team for a while.
[09:11] K
Really?
[09:13] S
She'll be helping us with
tournament prep, correct?
[09:16] Ki
Yeah. Thanks for having me.
[09:19] K
You're always welcome, Kiku-chan!
[09:22] S
Let's get right to practice, then.
[09:24] All
Yeah!
[09:28] N
Nice!
[09:29] K
Nice, Jun-chan.
[09:31] Ki
Uehara-san...
[09:33] S
Does she seem better than
the last time you saw her?
[09:35] Ki
Yeah.
[09:37] S
For a while after the
tournament you came to watch,
[09:41] S
she couldn't climb at all.
[09:43] S
But that adversity gave her
the push she needed to grow.
[09:48] S
Even Nono, who was in tears last time,
[09:51] S
has worked hard to get over that hump.
[09:55] S
She's short and lacks reach,
[09:57] S
but she's made up for it with
her resilient mentality.
[10:01] S
She's climbed walls over and over again,
[10:04] S
and tirelessly practiced her grabbing moves.
[10:08] S
And...
[10:08] K
Tan-ta-tan, ta-tan-tan.
[10:11] K
Tsh-tsh-ta!
[10:13] S
Konomi-san has conquered her weakness.
[10:15] Ki
Wow, Master.
[10:19] S
They're all so amazing.
[10:27] N
Say, Sayo-chin.
[10:28] N
Did something happen
during practice today?
[10:30] S
Huh? What do you mean?
[10:32] N
You had this sad look on your face.
[10:35] S
Sad? Why would I?
[10:38] S
I have nothing to be sad about.
[10:41] S
Forget about me. How are you doing?
[10:43] N
Urk... Slow and steady, I guess?
[10:46] S
"Slow"?
[10:48] N
But hey, since you taught me so much
about dealing with my weaknesses,
[10:52] N
I'm having a lot of fun climbing these days.
[10:55] N
You really opened my eyes in a bunch of ways.
[10:58] S
Is that so? I'm glad to hear it.
[11:00] N
I'm gonna use everything I've learned
in the upcoming competition.
[11:06] S
Great.
[11:20] K
She's quick.
[11:21] J
Yeah.
[11:26] J
That was awesome, Captain.
[11:28] Ki
You're sure to lead Hanamiya to victory.
[11:31] S
Thank you, Kiku-chan.
[11:33] N
Sayo-chin.
[11:37] N
Can we talk?
[11:38] S
Huh? Sure.
[11:42] K
What's happening? Nono-senpai
seemed mad about something.
[11:50] S
What is it?
[11:52] N
Sayo-chin...
[11:54] N
What's wrong with you?
[11:56] S
Nono?
[11:57] N
Why'd you start practicing
speed climbing all of a sudden?
[12:01] N
Didn't you say you would
skip the Combined Cup?
[12:06] N
Your injury hasn't fully healed yet!
[12:09] S
That's not true.
[12:12] S
You saw me climb, didn't you?
I clocked in at 13 seconds.
[12:17] S
My finger is as good as—
[12:19] N
Yeah, no! You were climbing all weird!
[12:22] S
Weird?
[12:23] N
I can tell! I've watched you for years!
[12:28] N
Didn't your doctor say you might have
to retire if you aggravate your injury?
[12:34] N
You always said you wanted to
climb all your life, remember?
[12:38] N
You want to go pro, don't you?
You can't take any risks right now, then!
[12:44] S
I don't need you to tell me that!
[12:48] S
I know that better than anyone. But...
[12:52] S
Jun came back to us,
Konomi-san's improved so much,
[12:57] S
Kiku-chan offered to help the team...
[13:00] S
And, most of all, you're really
enjoying climbing now.
[13:07] S
Looking at you made me...
[13:11] N
Sayo-chin.
[13:12] S
Listen, Nono, I want to climb with this team.
[13:17] S
I don't want to be the only one left out!
[13:20] S
I mean, this is my last chance
to climb with you all!
[13:29] S
I don't care if I can never climb again...
[13:31] N

[13:46] N
I won't let it happen!
[13:52] N
I'm the vice captain.
[13:56] N
I promise I'll lead the team to victory.
[14:00] N
So, please!
[14:11] S
As you say, Nono.
[14:13] K
I wonder what they're talking about.
[14:16] Ki
Sugiura-senpai had a scary look on her face.
[14:18] J
Yeah.
[14:19] K
Oh.
[14:20] K
They're back.
[14:24] S
I have an announcement to make.
[14:26] S
I won't be entering the upcoming cup.
[14:33] S
My finger hasn't fully healed yet.
[14:35] Ki
But... without you...
[14:38] S
Oh, I'm not worried about that.
[14:41] S
I've watched you three grow so much recently.
[14:45] S
I believe you stand a real chance.
[14:48] S
One and a half months to go.
I'll do everything I can to help you prepare...
[14:52] S
with Kiku-chan here.
[14:55] Ki
Right!
[14:56] Ki
I'll be the best support staff...
I'll try to be.
[15:12] S
Nono, you've solved most of your problems.
[15:15] N
Heh, yeah.
[15:18] S
You're doing a lot better
than before too, Jun.
[15:20] J
Yeah.
[15:21] S
And Konomi-san's speed time...
[15:24] S
It's gone under 14 seconds on average.
[15:27] S
Keep it up.
[15:28] K
I will!
[15:29] Ki
You're amazing, Master.
[15:31] K
Thanks.

you'll have even more eyeballs on you.
[16:30] J
Can you handle it?
[16:33] K
Honestly, it's a bit too much for me.
[16:36] K
But if they're watching me anyway,
I want to put on a show for them.
[16:40] J
That's the spirit.

[18:31] Nak
The bouldering prelims in this
cup will follow flashing rules.
[18:36] Nak
Climbers will compete on how many problems
they can solve in the allotted time.
[18:41] Comm
They're allowed to watch
other climbers try, right?
[18:43] Nak
Absolutely.
[18:44] Comm
Whoa, just as you see climbers
dropping like flies...
[18:47] Comm
Here's the rising star who made a real
splash in the Kanto Bouldering Championship.
[18:52] Comm
Will Hanamiya Girls' Kasahara
Konomi be the first to clear?
[18:57] Comm
How will she approach this?
[19:00] Comm
All of these problems seem
pretty hard for prelims.
[19:03] Nak
The goal here is to whittle the
numbers down from 140 climbers to 20.
[19:07] Nak
Of course I set difficult problems.
[19:11] Comm
Oh boy!
[19:12] Comm
Has Kasahara entered the observation process?
[19:15] Comm
It shouldn't be necessary, since you
have beta in a flashing competition.
[19:18] Comm
Nakata-san?
[19:19] Nak
Yes, but by analyzing the wall up close,
[19:23] Nak
she must be trying to fine-tune
the sequence in her mind.
[19:27] Nak
She spends ages analyzing
and then sends the route in a flash.
[19:30] Nak
That's who Kasahara is.
[19:32] Comm
I see.
[19:34] Comm
Kasahara solves the problem!
[19:36] Ki
That's my master!
[19:38] S
Well done!
[19:39] Nak
Urgh... "Murder Observation"?
[19:42] Nak
I was the first to notice her talents.
[19:45] Nak
I should've been the one to give her a
more fitting, more beautiful moniker.
[19:48] Comm
What?
[19:49] N
Nice, Konomin.
[19:51] J
Nicely done, Konomi.
[19:52] K

[05:37] (Flashback) J
Don't take Kurusu Anne's bait.
[05:40] (Flashback) J
You'll be fine if you
remember how you climb.
[05:43] K
You're right, Jun-chan.
[05:49] Pa
On your marks.
[05:51] Pa
Ready.
[05:55] Pa
Go, go!
[05:57] Pa
Go, go, go!
[06:01] Pa
Go, go!
[06:03] Pa
Go, go!
[06:04] Pa
Go, go!
[06:06] Pa
Go!
[06:15] K
That's my personal best.
[06:17] K
But...
[06:18] An
Can't touch me.
[06:20] An
Can't catch me.
[06:21] An
Can't chase me.
[06:23] An
Left in the dust!
[06:26] Comm
Would you believe it? Kurusu Anne has
posted another new personal best!
[06:30] An
Someone once said...
[06:33] An
"I'm going to beat you and win the
Combined Japan High School Cup!"
[06:37] An
Or did I just imagine that?
[06:40] An
Thank you, everyone!
[06:42] C
Anne-chan! Cool Kurusu!
[06:57] Comm
Here are the speed climbing results.
SIGN #1
Kurusu Anne
[06:59] Comm
In first, by a country mile, Kurusu Anne!
SIGN #2 Takahashi Mimu
[07:02] Comm
In second, another Kokureikan
climber, Takahashi Mimu!
SIGN #3 Fujita Masumi
[07:06] Comm
In third, St. Caterno's Fujita
Masumi stamps her authority!
SIGN #4 Iwamine Chinari
[07:10] Comm
Kurikawa's Iwamine Chinari slides
her large frame into fourth place!
SIGN #5 Uehara Jun
[07:14] Comm
In fifth, the ever-reliable speedster,
Hanamiya Girl's Uehara Jun.
[07:19] Comm
Skipped.
SIGN #10
Kasahara Konomi
[07:21] Comm
Tenth-placed Kasahara Konomi did
her best, but she seems down!
[07:25] J
Konomi?
[07:27] K
Why'd I have to go and say that?
[07:30] J
What?
[07:31] K
I told Anne-san I'd beat her and win.
[07:38] J
Isn't that obvious?
[07:42] J
Because Hanamiya's gonna win. Am I wrong?
[07:46] K
Jun-chan...
[07:48] N
Yeah! We have to win!
[07:52] N
I mean...
[07:54] N
I went and declared to Sayo-chin that
I'd lead the team to victory as vice captain.
[08:00] K
Uh...
[08:01] J
You posted a personal best, right?
[08:04] J
Maybe you couldn't beat Anne, but you
did your best in your worst discipline.
[08:09] J
Be proud of yourself.
[08:10] N
Yeah, yeah.
[08:13] J
You and Nono-senpai were 10th and 11th.
That's more than good enough.
[08:17] N
Yeah.
[08:18] N
Coming up are bouldering and lead.
That's where you shine.
[08:22] J
Konomi.
[08:23] J
You scaled the wall in your way,
and now it's our turn to scale ours.
[08:28] N
Yeah, yeah.
[08:29] N
I'm gonna overcome this, too.
[08:32] N
To be best in Japan.
[08:34] J
To be best in Japan.
[08:36] K
To be best in Japan.
SIGN #1 Kurusu Anne
[08:43] Comm
The competition in bouldering
was truly heated!
[08:46] Comm
Kurusu Anne takes first place
because she used fewer attempts!
SIGN #2 Iwamine Chinari
[08:50] Comm
In second is Iwamine Chinari, who made
full use of her height and reach!
SIGN #3 Fujita Masumi
[08:54] Comm
In third, a last of— I mean, a
blast of tempest, Fujita Masumi!
SIGN #4 Uehara Jun
[08:58] Comm
In fourth, Uehara Jun further
proves she's back for real!
SIGN #5 Kasahara Konomi
[09:03] Comm
In fifth, another Hanamiya
climber, Kasahara Konomi!
SIGN #6 Kumagai Chigusa
[09:07] Comm
In sixth, Kumagai Chigusa muscles in.
SIGN #7 Niijima Kaoru
[09:09] Comm
In seventh, the zombie, Niijima Kaoru.
SIGN #8 Sugiura Nonoka
[09:12] Comm
And in eighth, we have another
Hanamiya climber, Sugiura Nonoka!
[09:17] Comm
Hanamiya's on the warpath!
[09:18] Comm
And now, only lead climbing remains.
[09:20] As
I can't wait to see what
they'll show us this time.
[09:24] Nak
There's something in my eye...
[09:26] Comm
Well, we've entered observation time.
[09:29] Comm
In lead, they'll compete on how high they
can get within the six-minute time limit.
[09:34] As
Climbers will clip their ropes to
carabiners set up across the route
[09:38] As
to secure themselves while climbing.
[09:41] Comm
If you can clip your rope to the
topmost carabiner, you finish.
[09:47] Comm
Too bad! No St. Caterno climbers
could send the route!
[09:52] Comm
But they did well.
[09:55] Comm
Kurikawa High's climbers show
real drive and strength!
[09:58] Comm
But they're having a hard time finishing.
[10:01] Comm
Now we have Iwamine, who rose in
the rankings after bouldering.
[10:04] Comm
Even she falls!
[10:05] Comm
Great effort, though. She scores 32+!
[10:10] Comm
Takahashi Mimu falls!
[10:12] Comm
Kokureikan's climbers were steamrolling
through everything so far,
[10:16] Comm
but even Benibana Hifumi has fallen!
[10:18] Comm
Lead climbing is tough!
[10:20] As
In the Combined Cup,
stamina plays a key role.
[10:23] As
Benibana has scored 35,
and they're currently in the lead.
[10:26] C
Anne-chan!
[10:28] C
Cool Kurusu!
[10:28] Comm
Now, Kokureikan High's final climber
is the Princess of Climbing, Kurusu Anne!
[10:34] Comm
Listen to the crowd cheer her on!
[10:36] Comm
She's had a stranglehold
on first place so far.
[10:39] Comm
What kind of show will she put on for us?
[10:42] Comm
It's said that her strongest
asset is her stickability.
[10:45] Nak
Specifically, it's her
ability to secure each hold.
[10:49] Nak
But that differs from climber to climber,
making it highly difficult to define.
[10:54] Nak
I mean...
[10:55] Comm
Okay, here we go!
[11:01] Comm
S-So fast!
[11:03] Comm
Kurusu's going up like a rocket!
[11:05] Comm
Wait, she isn't just fast.
[11:07] Comm
How can she be so stable?
[11:10] Nak
Exactly. That's part of her stickability.
[11:14] Nak
Because she secures each hold perfectly,
[11:16] Nak
she can shift her body weight precisely
and avoid making reckless moves.
[11:33] Hif
Anne-san, you can't go that fast...
[11:36] Ki
Isn't that...
[11:37] S
Yes, it's the last hold
Benibana could secure.
[11:45] Comm
She extends her arm and secures the hold!
[11:48] Nak
Stickability again.
[11:50] Ki
It looks like a slippery hold, though.
[11:53] S
Finger and grip strength.
[11:55] S
She has the ability to turn holds that are
barely within her reach into secure ones.
[12:01] N
Here's the most difficult part.
[12:03] Comm
A dyno!
[12:08] Comm
She hangs on!
[12:09] Nak
Impressive. But...
[12:11] As
She's moving way too fast
through this problem.
[12:24] S
Incredible. She has a perfect
read on each and every hold.
[12:30] Comm
Oh?
[12:32] Comm
Kurusu has come to a halt.
[12:34] Comm
She's almost to the top!
[12:36] An
That hold's probably a front sloper.
[12:38] An
I should go in both hands at once.
[12:48] An
One last move.
[12:56] An
The only climber to send
this route will be me,
[12:59] An
Cool Kurusu!
[13:07] Comm
Whoa, Kurusu falls!
[13:10] Nak
Her dyno fell just a little bit short.
[13:13] Nak
You'd expect her stickability
to make up for that...
[13:16] As
But she seemed to be going full tilt
through speed, bouldering, and now this.
[13:20] Nak
Even in a high school
competition, she goes all out.
[13:23] Nak
Perhaps she was trying to surpass
her own physical limits here.
[13:27] Comm
Right. She scores 40+, which
puts her comfortably in first.
[13:31] An
Guys!
[13:32] C
Anne-chan!
[13:34] C
Cool Kurusu!
[13:41] N
Jun joined, Konomin joined,
[13:44] N
and the Hanamiya Climbing Team
grew so much.
[13:47] N
I'm proud of our team.
[13:50] N
We've done so well to get this far.
[13:52] N
You two can hold your heads up high.
[13:55] N
All that's left...
[13:56] N
is for us to give this team's founder
and captain who was forced to withdraw,
[14:00] N
Sayo-chin, the greatest gift of victory!
[14:03] Bo
Yeah!
[14:04] Ki
Good luck, Uehara-senpai!
[14:07] Comm
Hanamiya Girls' Uehara Jun is here.
[14:11] Comm
She has placed on the podium in speed
and bouldering competitions before,
[14:15] Comm
but not in lead, giving the impression
that it's not her strongest suit.
[14:19] Nak
That aside, she hadn't entered any
competitions in the last six months.
[14:23] Comm
After failing to send any problems
in the Kanto Bouldering Championships,
[14:27] Comm
she went into hiding for a while.
[14:32] J
Watch me, Konomi.
[14:35] J
I'll prove that my last six
months weren't for nothing!
[14:41] Comm
Uehara's dazzling us all
with her dynamic moves.
[14:44] Nak
Yes, she's looking good.
[14:46] Comm
You can't tell she took a break.
[14:48] As
She may not have entered any competitions,
[14:51] As
but she must've spent these past
six months bettering herself.
[15:01] Comm
You can really sense her inner strength.
[15:04] Nak
There's zero hesitation in her moves.
[15:06] S
After that painful experience,
Jun regained her style of climbing
[15:11] S
and became better than ever before.
[15:14] Comm
Kurusu currently holds the top spot.
[15:17] Comm
How far can Uehara go?
[15:50] Comm
She falls!
[15:51] Comm
Too bad!
[15:52] Nak
If only we could've seen her
last a little longer.
[15:55] Comm
But still, she scores 36+! A great effort!
[16:00] J
I wanted to go higher still...
[16:02] J
Damn Uchimura.
[16:05] Comm
Next up is Hanamiya Girls' Sugiura Nonoka!
[16:09] Ki
Good luck, Sugiura-senpai!
[16:12] S
Good luck, Nono.
[16:15] N
I practiced like crazy
with Sayo-chin for this.
[16:20] N
I can do this.
[16:21] N
It's true that tall people with long limbs
have an advantage in climbing.
[16:27] N
But even without all that,
[16:30] N
there must be a way for me to compete!
[16:32] N
A pied à main really does feel amazing!
[16:36] Comm
Sugiura's biggest asset
is her flexibility, huh?
[16:40] As
Yeah.
[16:41] Nak
You could mistake her for a gymnast up there.
[16:43] Nak
However, this route could prove
quite stressful for a short climber.
[16:52] Ki
Go, Sugiura-senpai! Go!
[16:56] N
Stretch!
[17:03] (Flashback) S
I'm going to work you to
the bone again today.
[17:08] (Flashback) S
What do you do when you a
hold is barely out of reach?
[17:11] (Flashback) N
I wish I knew!
[17:14] (Flashback) S
Don't give up. There are options.
[17:17] (Flashback) S
If you keep practicing grabbing holds
that you think are out of reach,
[17:21] (Flashback) S
you'll start to see your range expand.
[17:37] N
Yes!
[17:43] N
Ta-dah!
[17:45] Ki
A-Amazing, Sugiura-senpai!
[17:48] S
Right? Nono is amazing!
[17:52] Comm
Look at this! Sugiura hangs in there!
[18:03] Comm
She's showing real fight!
[18:05] Comm
She just won't take no for an answer!
[18:08] J
Nono-senpai...
[18:15] N
All right!
[18:19] N
Huh?
[18:20] Comm
No! What a shame!
[18:23] Comm
She falls!
[18:25] Comm
But she scores a 40! An incredible showing!
[18:30] N
Sayo-chin!
[18:32] N
All yours now, Konomin.
[18:50] Comm
And now we have
Hanamiya Girls' final climber,
[18:53] Comm
the new star who took the scene by storm,
[18:56] Comm
the dark horse in this competition,
Kasahara Konomi!
[19:02] K
I will climb this, no matter what.
[19:05] Ki
Good luck, Master!
[19:08] Comm
So far, she's shown what she's capable
of in both bouldering and speed.
[19:13] Comm
I hear Nakata-san's speed climbing
camp paid big dividends?
[19:17] Nak
Oh, I don't know about that!
[19:26] K
All I had in life was puzzle games.
[19:29] K
But then, I encountered climbing...
[19:32] K
and broadened my horizons so much.
[19:36] K
I even made friends,
teammates who climb with me.
[19:39] K
Whenever I messed up or got down on myself,
[19:42] K
Captain, Nono-senpai, and Jun-chan
dragged me out of the dumps.
[19:48] K
It's only because they were there
for me that I made it this far.
[19:55] K
I've met an opponent who
I couldn't beat at my best,
[19:58] K
someone who was way out of my league,
[20:01] K
and I let her get to me, but...
[20:05] (Flashback) J
You scaled the wall in your way,
and now it's our turn to scale ours.
[20:09] (Flashback) N
I'm gonna overcome this, too.
[20:17] (Flashback) N
You two can hold your heads up high.
[20:20] (Flashback) All
To be best in Japan.
[20:26] (Flashback) All
I'm going to beat you and win the
Combined Japan High School Cup!
[20:31] All
Hanamiya will win, I swear it!
[20:34] All
Those words will not go down as a lie!
[20:38] Ki
Go, Master!
[21:34] Comm
She sends it!
