*Spring. The season of new beginnings.*
**[00:10] RYO**
*For flowers, plants... and people.*
**[00:15] ALL**
Thank you for having us.
**[00:17] RYO**
*And I'm no exception.*
**[00:27] SAORI**
I'm glad we're in the same class again.
**[00:30] AYUMI**
Seriously.
**[00:32] AYUMI**
It must be fate, right?
**[00:37] ISSHIKI**
I don't know about that.
**[00:38] ISSHIKI**
Ow.
**[00:40] ISSHIKI**
What was that for?
**[00:42] AYUMI**
What's your problem?
**[00:44] TERADA**
Okay, Saito-san and I will be the class reps.

We'll start with the recreation committee,
which is taking charge of next week's party.
**[00:56] SAITO**
Are there any volunteers?
**[01:00] SAITO**
It's an important job, designed to
foster friendship among the class.
**[01:05] TERADA**
Once the party's over, you won't
have any responsibilities for a while.
**[01:10] ONODERA**
Yeah, but planning a party is a pain.
**[01:13] YOSHIZUMI**
Having to manage people sucks.
**[01:17] TEACHER**
Hey, c'mon, you guys.
**[01:19] TEACHER**
You're second-years now.
**[01:21] TEACHER**
Why don't you try acting like
the young adults you are?
**[01:28] RYO**
All right. I'll do it.

Yeah, man. You're not much fun normally.
**[03:20] RYO**
What?
**[03:21] SAKAKI**
Well, I'm sure it'll be fine. It's a chance
to make friends with your classmates.
**[03:25] SAKAKI**
You might even get a
cute girlfriend out of it.
**[03:30] RYO**
Yeah, but that's not the only reason.

Yeah.

**[03:40] RYO**
Didn't Yokokawa-san and Yusa-san
seem like giants to you last year?
**[03:45] ALL**
Yeah.
**[03:46] SAKAKI**
They *still* seem like giants.
**[03:49] RYO**
I thought I'd like to be
a little more like that.
**[03:53] SAKAKI**
Oh?

Look at you, acting like an upperclassman.

**[04:47] IMAIZUMI**
And there'll be caterpillars.
**[04:49] FUJITA**
Ugh, gross.
**[04:50] FUJITA**
No caterpillars.
**[04:53] AKAKAWA**
Oh, really? Any alternatives?
**[04:56] YAMASAKI**
Hot springs! How about hot springs?
**[04:59] ONODERA**

**[05:00] KIKUCHI**

**[05:01] YAMASAKI**
Huh? Are you a K-pop fan?
**[05:04] KIKUCHI**
De.
**[05:06] YAMASAKI**
I know! Let's do karaoke! Karaoke!
**[05:09] RYO**
Karaoke?
**[05:10] KIKUICHI**
K-pop only?
**[05:12] YAMASAKI**
Nah, man. Idol music only.
**[05:15] IMAIZUMI**
No way. Anime songs only.
**[05:16] RYO**
H-Hold on. The focus of this event is to
interact with each other, not to sing songs.

Karaoke
**[05:26] RYO**
Karaoke's not a terrible idea,
**[05:28] RYO**
but don't you think it'd be
too loud for conversations?
**[05:31] RYO**
I'm sure some people
aren't great singers, either.
**[05:34] RYO**
Huh?
**[05:35] NAKAMURA**
It doesn't matter what we choose.
**[05:39] NAKAMURA**
Why are you taking it seriously?
**[05:40] RYO**
*Wh-What?*
**[05:48] RIKA**
Hm. "Why are you taking it seriously," huh?
**[05:51] RYO**
She didn't have to put it like that.
**[05:54] RIKA**
How about waterfall meditation?
**[05:56] RYO**
What?
**[05:56] RIKA**
The 8°C water will strengthen
your willpower and perseverance.

Hey, is this that manager
you mentioned the other day?

Yusa Kento

**[06:09] SIGN**
This is Sakurai Hana
**[06:11] RYO**
Wh-Why do you have a picture of Sakurai-san?
**[06:14] RIKA**
I got Yusa to send it to me.
**[06:16] RYO**
What?
**[06:17] RIKA**
You're lucky to have such a good manager.
**[06:20] RIKA**
It's unusual for Yusa to
remember someone's full name.
**[06:24] RYO**
Really?
**[06:25] RIKA**
Oh, don't worry.
**[06:27] RIKA**
He remembers your full name, too.
**[06:29] RYO**
I should hope so.
**[06:31] RIKA**
In fact, he probably has
a bunch of data on you.
**[06:35] RIKA**
Nobody's more excited
about your growth than Yusa.
**[06:41] RIKA**
He's been eagerly waiting for someone
to join him at the top of his high mountain.
**[06:46] RYO**
You think so?
**[06:48] RIKA**
I do.
**[06:50] RYO**
Is that right?
**[06:55] SAKAKI**
So what happened to the
party planning after that?
**[06:58] RYO**
We're going to do karaoke after all.
**[07:01] SAKAKI**
Karaoke, huh?
**[07:14] SAKAKI**
He's running again.
**[07:17] RYO**
Yeah.
**[07:19] SAKAKI**
He's been doing that since
he lost to you last year.
**[07:21] RYO**
Huh?
**[07:29] SAKAKI**
Whoa!
**[07:33] SAKAKI**
Hey, Shiba!
**[07:37] SAKAKI**
I'm your senior, you know! Your senior!
**[07:43] SAKAKI**
Man, he could at least say hello.
**[07:51] RYO**
What's wrong?
**[07:56] RYO**
He's quitting?
**[07:58] SAKAKI**
Ichinose is?
**[07:59] TAICHI**
Why?
**[08:00] YOKOKAWA**
I asked him why, but he didn't say anything.
**[08:04] YOJI**
That's a little soon for
someone who was scouted.

Nah, better not. He probably reached his
decision after giving it a lot of thought.
**[08:25] YOKOKAWA**
Coach said it's his decision to make,
so we shouldn't force the issue.
**[08:35] AKIRA**

still go check up on him later.

talked to Ichinose-kun quite a lot.

I think this is the right way to handle it.
**[08:52] AKIRA**
I wonder if something happened to him.
**[08:56] ICHINOSE**
Senpai, this pace is too fast.
**[09:00] RYO**
It's all right. You'll be this fast next year.
**[09:04] ICHINOSE**
Really?
**[09:06] RYO**
Yeah.
**[09:08] RYO**

**[09:20] RYO**
Ichinose-kun, we heard the news.
**[09:23] RYO**
Are you willing to tell us why
you're thinking about quitting?
**[09:28] RYO**
It'd be a shame if you quit.
You're just getting started.
**[09:31] AKIRA**
He's right. You were
chosen by Ebihara-sensei.
**[09:38] RYO**
We don't mind talking it over with you.
**[09:41] ICHINOSE**
It's fine.
**[09:42] RYO**
Huh?
**[09:43] ICHINOSE**
It's fine. You've never wanted
to quit badminton, have you?
**[09:48] ICHINOSE**
So don't bother.
**[09:50] ICHINOSE**
I weighed up the situation
and thought long and hard.
**[09:54] ICHINOSE**
You wouldn't understand.
**[09:58] RYO**
Ah, Ichinose-kun!
**[10:01] AKIRA**
Mizushima-kun, maybe we
should give him some time.

**[10:31] RYO**
What?
**[10:32] YAMASAKI**
I did karaoke yesterday.
**[10:34] RYO**
Wait, wait, wait. But we
already decided on karaoke.
**[10:38] YAMASAKI**
What? Really?
**[10:39] RYO**
Yeah. Right, Nakamura-san?
**[10:41] NAKAMURA**
Yeah, I guess.

Seriously? Let's do something else.

If you want to. I don't mind.
**[10:48] RYO**
H-Hold on. This isn't right.
**[10:52] RYO**
People are already preparing for doing
karaoke and looking forward to it.
**[10:55] ISSHIKI**
Yeah, and you're the one who
suggested karaoke to begin with.
**[10:59] YAMASAKI**
So? What does that matter?
**[11:03] YAMASAKI**
Anyway, if we're doing karaoke, I'll pass.
**[11:06] ONODERA**
Aw, what? If you're not going, I'm not, either.
**[11:10] HONDA**
Then I'm not going, either.
**[11:11] RYO**
H-Hold on, guys.
**[11:14] KIKUCHI**
Why not call it off entirely?
**[11:16] KIKUCHI**

they've got cram school and stuff.

**[11:21] STUDENT**
Call it off.

**[11:39] NAKAMURA**
I'm glad our teacher didn't seem
that interested in the party, either.

I think I'd like to be

Yeah. You're always

And he's always saying "heh."
**[12:57] RYO**
"Heh"?

Huh? Sakaki, what's up?
**[13:38] SAKAKI**
Oh, I went to see Ichinose.
**[13:41] RYO**
What?
**[13:42] SAKAKI**
So I could talk to him.
**[13:44] RYO**
You better not have been too pushy.
**[13:47] SAKAKI**
I still haven't been able to talk to him.
**[13:50] RYO**
Still?
**[13:51] HANA**
Sakaki-kun, have you been
going to see him every day?
**[13:54] SAKAKI**
Yeah.
**[13:55] RYO**
Y-You can't do that. You'll
just make him more stubborn.
**[14:00] SAKAKI**
You think so?
**[14:01] RYO**
Yeah.
**[14:02] SAKAKI**
So you're just gonna give up after one time?
**[14:06] SAKAKI**
With these things, you always start
by getting turned down.
**[14:09] RYO**
What?
**[14:10] SAKAKI**
My family runs a restaurant.
**[14:13] SAKAKI**
My dad has to visit business partners
a bunch of times to ask for things.
**[14:18] SAKAKI**
And after seeing him do that, I'm not confident
about getting stuff right on the first try.
**[14:22] SAKAKI**
In fact, I have no
confidence at all that I can.
**[14:26] RYO**
Confidence?
**[14:27] SAKAKI**
With this kind of thing,
**[14:29] SAKAKI**
you get people to understand you by
going to see them over and over again.
**[14:35] RYO**
You're right. What I lack is confidence.
**[14:38] RYO**
I can't push for things
because I lack confidence.
**[14:43] RYO**
* I can't say anything because I'm afraid of*
* making things more difficult for myself.*
**[14:49] RYO**
What about flower viewing?
**[14:51] ONODORA**
What? Won't it be cold?
**[14:53] IMAIZUMI**
And there'll be caterpillars.
**[14:54] FUJITA**
Ugh, gross.
**[14:56] FUJITA**
No caterpillars.
**[14:58] RYO**
Oh, really?
**[15:00] RYO**
H-Hold on, guys.
**[15:02] KIKUCHI**
Why not call it off entirely?
**[15:04] STUDENT**
Call it off.
**[15:05] STUDENT**
Forget about it.
**[15:11] SAKAKI**
I think it's the same as badminton.
**[15:14] RYO**
Huh?
**[15:15] SAKAKI**
Nobody nails a smash on their first try.

**[15:21] TEACHER**
What? You want to discuss it again?
**[15:24] RYO**
Yes. I'd like to hold a party after all.
**[15:28] RYO**
I'm sorry, but could I have some
time during homeroom today?
**[15:34] TEACHER**
Huh.
**[15:36] TEACHER**
Fine.
**[15:37] RYO**
Huh?
**[15:38] TEACHER**
Let's go.
**[15:39] RYO**
Uh, yes, ma'am!
**[15:42] RYO**
Anyway, I'd like to talk
about holding a party again.
**[15:47] NAKAMURA**
* Oh, c'mon, don't bring*
* this up again. What a pain.*
**[15:50] RYO**
I've, uh, been thinking. We might as
well *try* to enjoy our year together.
**[15:57] RYO**
Canceling the party will relieve us
of the hassle of organizing one,
**[16:01] RYO**
but we'll also be missing out on a
chance to become better friends.
**[16:06] YAMASAKI**
Exaggerate much?
**[16:07] RYO**
I-I think some people here
might be feeling uneasy,
**[16:11] RYO**
unsure if this year with this
class will be a good one or not.
**[16:15] RYO**
So I think this party is
actually pretty important.
**[16:18] AKAKAWA**
But I've already made plans.
**[16:20] FUJITA**
Me, too.
**[16:22] RYO**
What?
**[16:23] ONODERA**
You keep changing plans too much.
**[16:25] KIKUCHI**
Right?
**[16:26] RYO**
Th-Then, let's start by choosing a new day.
**[16:29] YOSHIZUMI**
What? We're starting with that?
**[16:31] STUDENT**
Seriously?
**[16:32] STUDENT**
What are you talking about?
**[16:34] RYO**
I'm sorry to those of you
who already have plans,
**[16:37] RYO**
but I'd like to start by choosing a new date.
**[16:40] RYO**
*I don't actually want to cause conflict.*
**[16:45] RYO**
*But...*
**[16:47] RYO**
How about the weekend after next?
**[16:49] RYO**
* Then I wouldn't be making an*
* effort to communicate what I think.*
**[16:55] RYO**
There's the week after that, too.
**[16:57] RYO**
* I want to develop the ability*
* to properly convey how I feel.*
**[17:02] RYO**
All right, what about next weekend?
**[17:05] MATSUDA**
Let's do a flower viewing next Sunday.
**[17:07] RYO**
Huh?
**[17:08] MATSUDA**
I'm not into karaoke. I don't
know any recent songs, anyway.
**[17:12] AYUMI**
I'm good with that, too! I'm not
good at singing or dancing, anyway.
**[17:17] ISSHIKI**
What? The other day, you got
all excited talking about cosplay—
**[17:19] ISSHIKI**
Ow.
**[17:21] SAORI**
I'm good with that, too.
**[17:22] SAORI**
What about you, Yamazaki?
**[17:24] YAMASAKI**
Huh? Why are you asking me?
**[17:27] SAORI**
Just answer the question.
**[17:28] YAMASAKI**
And my name's Yamasaki, not Yamazaki.
**[17:32] SAORI**
Your name's Yamasaki?
**[17:34] YAMASAKI**
Yeah.
**[17:35] AYUMI**
See?
**[17:37] AYUMI**
We don't even know simple
stuff like that about each other.
**[17:40] AYUMI**
We really should hold a party after all.
**[17:46] IMAIZUMI**
Actually, I didn't know that, either.
**[17:48] ANDO**
Yeah, it could be a good idea.
**[17:50] YOSHIZUMI**
Yeah, maybe.
**[17:51] ISSHIKI**
Totally.
**[17:52] TERADA**
It's decided, then.
**[17:54] SAITO**
Yeah.

Ichinose-kun is coming to talk to us today!
**[18:14] SAKAKI**
I see. So he couldn't keep up with
practice 'cause it was too intense.
**[18:18] AKIRA**
It was apparently affecting his studies
and his parents gave him an earful about it.
**[18:25] TAICHI**
Well, it was never *this* intense, but we trained
pretty hard in elementary and middle school.
**[18:30] MATSUDA**
Yeah.
**[18:31] YOJI**
What about you, Mizushima? Your training
was more relaxed in middle school, right?
**[18:36] RYO**
Yeah.
**[18:37] TAICHI**
Was it tough for you, too?
**[18:38] RYO**
At first, yeah. But I think things started
to get easier during the training camp.
**[18:44] MATSUDA**
The training camp? Why?
**[18:46] RYO**
Because I figured out why I was doing it.
**[18:54] KASUGA**
What? A review?
**[18:56] RYO**
Yeah.
**[18:58] RYO**
Starting today, I want everyone to look back
on what they did for practice every day.
**[19:02] RYO**
I'd like you to objectively report on
your experience, like a news reporter.
**[19:08] RYO**
We'll start with Kasuga-kun.
**[19:10] KASUGA**
Huh? Um, today, I jogged and stretched.
**[19:14] KASUGA**
I did sprints, practiced basic shots,
and did some practical practice, too.
**[19:18] RYO**
What about you, Ichinose-kun?
**[19:20] ICHINOSE**
I did the same things.
**[19:22] ICHINOSE**
I didn't meet my target times,
so I'm supposed to work on that.
**[19:25] RYO**
Shiba-kun?
**[19:28] SHIBA**
I worked on my endurance and explosive
power with aerobic and anaerobic exercises.
**[19:32] SHIBA**
I focused on my fundamentals
**[19:34] SHIBA**
during basic shot practice and
strategy during practical practice.
**[19:37] ICHINOSE**
What?
**[19:39] SHIBA**
I also failed to meet my target times,
**[19:42] SHIBA**
but since the goal of jogging and our
sprints is to improve physical fitness,
**[19:46] SHIBA**
I think it'll be fine as long as
I meet them over the summer.
**[19:49] ICHINOSE**
* Summer? Plus, "endurance and*
* explosive power"? What do they mean?*
**[19:53] ICHINOSE**
*I've never even thought about them.*
**[19:56] ICHINOSE**
Uh, when you say "goal"...
**[19:58] SHIBA**
What? Have you been practicing
without understanding *why* we're doing it?
**[20:02] ICHINOSE**
Wait, what?
**[20:04] ICHINOSE**
Why we're doing it?
**[20:10] ICHINOSE**
I-I'm sorry! It seems I had
no idea what was going on.
**[20:15] ICHINOSE**
I realized something after
hearing Shiba-kun's review.
**[20:19] ICHINOSE**
I was so busy focusing on what was right in
front of me, I wasn't looking at the future.
**[20:24] ICHINOSE**
That goes for badminton and my studies.
**[20:29] SAKAKI**
Ichinose.
**[20:31] ICHINOSE**
I have the upperclassmen to thank for it.
**[20:33] SAKAKI**
Huh?
**[20:34] ICHINOSE**
I have the upperclassmen to thank for it.
You helped me realize something important.
**[20:38] ICHINOSE**
And Sakaki-senpai, thank you
for coming to see me every day.
**[20:43] SAKAKI**
Sure.
**[20:44] ICHINOSE**
Thank you all so much!
**[20:55] SAKAKI**
I'm glad Ichinose bounced back.
**[20:58] RYO**
Yeah.
**[20:59] YOJI**
Senpai.
**[21:00] SAKAKI**
Senpai.
**[21:01] ALL**
Senpai!
**[21:06] RYO**
I wonder if I've caught up to them a little.
**[21:09] ALL**
What?
**[21:10] RYO**
I needed the help of all
of you to do it, though.
**[21:13] MATSUDA**
So how far do you plan on following us?
**[21:15] AYUMI**
Over here!
**[21:18] SAKAKI**
What's this?
**[21:20] YOJI**
What a coincidence!
**[21:22] MATSUDA**
They really were planning
to crash our flower viewing.
**[21:27] RYO**
What? Just how brazen are they?
**[21:32] RYO**
Matsuda, thanks.
**[21:35] RYO**
For backing me up before.
**[21:38] RYO**
It made me really happy.
