[00:14] Suzuha
    Don't rush.
[00:15] Suzuha
    Don't stammer.
[00:17] Suzuha
    Speak slowly.
[00:19] (Flashback) Sister
    New student representatives. Obunai Suzuha.
[00:23] (Flashback) Suzuha
    Yes.
[00:24] (Flashback) Sister
    Tanizaki Shion.
[00:25] (Flashback) Shion
    Yes.
[00:34] (Flashback) Shion
    Makes you nervous, huh?
[00:41] (Flashback) Shion
    With the warm arrival of spring, today we walked
    through the gate of the Oujou Girls Academy.
[00:50] Suzuha
    Tanizaki Shion-san...
[00:55] (Flashback) Shion
    I'm sorry, today is...
[01:02] Suzuha
    It's Tanizaki-san!
[01:04] Suzuha
    I'm in luck, getting to see her
    first thing in the morning!
[01:06] (Flashback) Shion
    Obunai-san. Morning.
[01:08] Suzuha
    Tanizaki-san has such a nice voice.
[01:12] Suzuha
    I get too nervous to talk to her
    properly when I see her in person.
[01:16] (Flashback) Student A
    Please come whenever you like.
[01:17] (Flashback) Shion
    Sure.
[01:18] (Flashback) Shion
    These ladies here said they'd like
    to talk to you, Obunai-san.
[01:23] Suzuha
    Look at them. Using Tanizaki-san to get close...
[01:26] Suzuha
    Why are these girls even here?
[01:30] (Flashback) Shion
    Obunai-san?
[01:32] (Flashback) Suzuha
    You're really kind, aren't you, Tanizaki-san?
[01:36] (Flashback) Kanata
    I mean, I just happened to bump
    into Shion-chan!
[01:39] (Flashback) Kanata
    She just said hi to me!
[01:42] Suzuha
    No way! It had nothing to do with Tanizaki-san!
[01:45] Suzuha
    Crap, I was really snarky with her.
[01:48] Suzuha
    How do I face her tomorrow?
[01:49] Suzuha
    I mean, I always face her like this, but...
[02:00] (Flashback) Shion
    E-Er...
[02:01] (Flashback) Shion
    Good day.
[02:09] Suzuha
    I just panicked and walked right by her.
[02:11] Suzuha
    That came across pretty nasty, didn't it?
[02:14] (Flashback) Shion
    Um...
[02:15] Suzuha
    Never mind what I said the other day.
[02:17] Suzuha
    It was a misunderstanding!
[02:18] Suzuha
    It wasn't your fault at all.
[02:20] Suzuha
    Wait, where are you going?!
[02:27] Suzuha
    I can't talk to her!
[02:29] Suzuha
    I hope she notices me...
[02:35] Suzuha
    What's Tanizaki-san up to?
[02:38] (Flashback) Shion
    Actually...
[02:39] (Flashback) Shion
    I know I'll never make it,
[02:42] (Flashback) Shion
    but I wanted to become
    a singer-songwriter.
[02:47] Suzuha
    What? That's amazing!
[02:49] Suzuha
    I want her to do concerts and stuff.
[02:54] Suzuha
    Is she singing?
[02:55] Suzuha
    Is Tanizaki-san singing?!
[02:56] Suzuha
    I want to hear more!
[03:02] (Flashback) Kanata
    Intruder!
[03:03] Suzuha
    No! No, I'm not!
[03:19] (Flashback) Shion
    W-Well, good day.
[03:22] (Flashback) Students
    Right, good day.
[03:24] Suzuha
    Oh, no...
[03:25] Suzuha
    Tanizaki-san hates me now.
[03:28] (Flashback) Man
    Aren't you doing your parkour today?
[03:36] (Flashback) Man
    What?
[03:37] (Flashback) Man
    What was that for?!
[03:38] (Flashback) Anna
    Suzuha, are you okay?
[03:39] (Flashback) Anna
    He wasn't perving on you, was he?
[03:41] (Flashback) Suzuha
    I'm okay.
[03:41] (Flashback) Anna
    That's good.
[03:43] (Flashback) Anna
    Hey, have you seen Shion?
[03:45] (Flashback) Suzuha
    She went home.
[03:48] (Flashback) Suzuha
    You're here to take videos
    of me, too, aren't you?
[03:52] (Flashback) Anna
    No. I'm on my way to get Shion.
[03:54] (Flashback) Anna
    Although, it's true that I
    want you to be in my videos.
[03:58] (Flashback) Suzuha
    Tanizaki-san?
[03:59] (Flashback) Anna
    Yeah.
[04:00] (Flashback) Anna
    How about a participation prize
    of three pencils?
[04:03] (Flashback) Suzuha
    I'm in.
[04:05] (Flashback) Suzuha
    I'll be in your videos.
[04:11] (Flashback) Anna
    Suzuha!
[04:15] (Flashback) Anna
    Ta-da!
[04:16] (Flashback) Anna
    Suzuha's here!
[04:20] (Flashback) Kanata
    Why?!
[04:20] (Flashback) Megumi
    Obunai-san? The top from Platinum Rabbits?
[04:26] (Flashback) Kanata
    Wow!
[04:28] (Flashback) Kanata
    That's why you can hop around so much.
[04:30] (Flashback) Anna
    Suzuha's gonna be a million volt charge!
[04:32] (Flashback) Nodoka
    Maybe she means a "million-dollar star"?
[04:38] (Flashback) Shion
    I look forward to it.
[04:44] Suzuha
    I want to get closer to Tanizaki-san
    and apologize properly.
[04:50] Suzuha
    My bad.
[04:51] Suzuha
    I'm sorry.
[04:52] Suzuha
    I apologize sincerely.
[04:54] Suzuha
    I'm deeply sorry.
[04:58] Suzuha
    Sorry.

[06:32] Noichigo
    Base: Hiiragi, Ryoko, Aina.
[06:35] Aina; Hiiragi; Ryoko
    Yes.
[06:36] Noichigo
    Top: Minami, Makoto, Hana.
[06:39] Minami; Makoto
    Yes.
[06:41] Hana
    Yes.
[06:42] Noichigo
    That's all from me.
[06:43] Noichigo
    Split up into your teams and do your stretches.
[06:46] All
    Yes.
[06:47] Noichigo
    Hana.
[06:50] Noichigo
    I sent Kanata home.
[06:53] Hana
    Will she have to go to the hospital?
[06:55] Noichigo
    She didn't seem to have hit her head,
    so she's just going to wait and see.
[06:58] Noichigo
    You just have to be patient
    with people like her, I suppose.
[07:03] Hana
    It's my fault.
[07:05] Hana
    It's because I didn't stop her.
[07:08] Noichigo
    I didn't stop her from trying out either.
[07:11] Noichigo
    Kanata's the only one
    who can pull off a kick triple.
[07:13] Hana
    I'll... I'll learn to do it!
[07:34] Anna
    Kanata, are you leaving?
[07:37] Megumi
    You make the strings one at a time, huh?
[07:39] Nodoka
    Apparently this is how the cheer committee's
    been doing it for generations.
[07:43] Anna
    Are we doing all of these, Nodoka?
[07:46] Nodoka
    All of them.
[07:47] Nodoka
    All three thousand.
[07:48] Anna
    Three thousand?!
[07:51] Megumi
    You were late today, huh, Kanata?
[07:53] Kanata
    W-Was I?
[07:54] Anna
    Kanata was about to leave.
[07:57] Kanata
    Shh!
[07:59] Megumi
    Kanata, did you not make the A-Team?
[08:03] Kanata
    Yeah... I didn't make it.
[08:07] Kanata
    Hana-senpai was just too good.
[08:09] Anna
    A-Team?
[08:10] Kanata
    We had tryouts for the cheer team.
[08:12] Nodoka
    No wonder your team's so strong.
[08:14] Megumi
    You're on the B-Team, then?
[08:16] Kanata
    I didn't make B-Team, either.
[08:19] Megumi
    Why not? Did something happen?
[08:22] Kanata
    Well, I kind of messed up.
[08:32] Shion
    I'm late.
[08:37] Shion
    Obunai-san?
[08:39] Shion
    What's up?
[08:40] Shion
    Aren't you going to Megumi-chan's today?
[08:46] Suzuha
    I was waiting for Tanizaki-san...
[08:49] Suzuha
    But I'd come across like
    a stalker if I told her that, right?!
[08:51] Suzuha
    What do I do? I didn't think this through!
[08:56] Shion
    Oh no, she froze!
[08:58] Shion
    Maybe I shouldn't have talked to her.
[09:01] Shion
    But I angered her so much,
    and I shocked her with my horrible singing...
[09:07] Suzuha
    Tanizaki-san?
[09:09] Suzuha
    Shoot, I ignored her again!
[09:11] Suzuha
    I have to apologize!
[09:13] Suzuha
    But...
[09:16] Suzuha
    With my face always stuck like this...
[09:25] Anna
    I'm stringing and stringing and it never ends!
[09:28] Megumi
    Your pompom's so pretty, Shion-chan.
[09:30] Shion
    Is it?
[09:32] Nodoka
    You're so efficient.
[09:33] Nodoka
    Suzuha-chan is...
[09:44] Anna
    Are you just clumsy?
[09:47] Anna
    Let's do pompoms later!
[09:48] Nodoka
    You give up too quickly.
[09:50] Megumi
    Though, now that we're all here,
    it'd be nice to practice cheer, huh?
[09:55] Anna
    Right?
[09:56] Anna
    Okay, let's clean up!
SIGN    3. The spotter must quickly prepare
    for the fall following the toss-up.
SIGN    4. Bases and spotter must keep
    their eyes on the top and be in
    position.
[09:59] Megumi
    Okay, why don't we have Shion-chan
    and Anna-chan be spotters this time?
[10:03] Megumi
    Suzuha-chan, Nodoka-chan,
    you two support the top.
[10:07] Megumi
    Kanata's the top.
[10:08] Megumi
    Let's give it a try.
[10:09] Kanata
    Sorry.
[10:11] Kanata
    Sorry.
[10:12] Kanata
    I'm not really feeling it today.
[10:15] Kanata
    I think I'll be a spotter.
[10:17] Megumi
    Are you all right?
[10:18] Megumi
    Are you feeling sick?
[10:19] Kanata
    Nah.
[10:20] Kanata
    Not really, but...
[10:22] Suzuha
    Can you not fly?
[10:23] Suzuha
    You froze the other day
    when you were about to jump.
[10:30] Suzuha
    It looked like your body was afraid.
[10:33] Megumi
    Kanata?
[10:36] Kanata
    Sorry.
[10:39] Suzuha
    There I go again, saying things I shouldn't!
[10:42] Kanata
    I can't fly anymore for some reason.
[10:51] Nodoka
    Yips...
[10:53] Nodoka
    A psychological condition in which
SIGN    Yips—Medipedia
[10:56] Nodoka
    familiar athletic activities
    suddenly become impossible.
[10:59] Megumi
    There is no clear treatment for yips.
[11:04] Megumi
    Kanata was in the cheer competition in May.
[11:09] Megumi
    She was the only first-year to be chosen.
[11:13] Megumi
    But even though they were
    the overwhelming favorite to win,
[11:16] Megumi
    her team ended up at the bottom.
[11:18] Megumi
    Ever since, she'd stop by my place to chat
    even when she had morning practice.
[11:24] Megumi
    It must have been weighing on her.
[11:27] Megumi
    Maybe she wanted
    to tell us this whole time.
[11:30] Megumi
    Or...
[11:33] Megumi
    Maybe she couldn't tell us.
[11:41] Kanata
    I'm home.
[11:43] Kokoro
    Kanata, you haven't been
    checking your messages, have you?
[11:46] Kokoro
    The cheer teacher
    and captain were here earlier.
[11:49] Kokoro
    You can't be joining the tryouts when
    you're still banned from club activities.
[11:53] Kanata
    What did they say?
[11:54] Kokoro
    They said they'll be waiting,
    even if it takes half a year or a year.
[12:00] Kokoro
    You don't need to rush it.
[12:01] Kokoro
    Just take your time.
[12:03] Kanata
    Yeah...
[12:05] Nodoka
    I think we should call off the cheer videos.
[12:09] Suzuha
    Not just call off stunts?
[12:11] Nodoka
    When I looked up yips, it said
    the best thing to do is to take a break.
[12:16] Shion
    It looks like she's skipping club meets, too.
[12:19] Shion
    It might not be a good idea to push her.
[12:21] Nodoka
    We should probably give her some time.
[12:24] Anna
    No.
[12:25] Anna
    We can't leave Kanata out!
[12:27] Anna
    Nope!
[12:29] Anna
    Being considerate of her
    means pushing her away!
[12:31] Anna
    You can't spell "considerate"
    without "distant," you know!
[12:33] Anna
    Didn't you know?!
[12:35] Nodoka
    Anna-chan...
[12:35] Anna
    Kanata will decide whether she's in or not.
[12:38] Anna
    We can't decide for her!
[12:42] Megumi
    I kind of get it.
[12:45] Megumi
    It was hard having everyone
    walk on eggshells around me
[12:48] Megumi
    when I was hospitalized in middle school.
[12:51] Megumi
    But Kanata would show up and
    talk to me like everything was normal.
[12:55] Megumi
    I liked that.
[12:57] Megumi
    I don't think Kanata
    would say no to doing cheer.
[13:01] Megumi
    She loves cheer.
[13:03] Nodoka
    Is it all right to invite her, though?
[13:07] Megumi
    Maybe we can support Kanata.
[13:09] Shion
    Support her?
[13:10] Anna
    That's it!
[13:12] Anna
    You mean we support her
    through cheerleading, right?
[13:15] Anna
    Come on, Suzuha.
[13:16] Suzuha
    Nope.
[13:17] Anna
    Why not?!
[13:18] Suzuha
    Nope.
[13:18] Anna
    Even though you used to do cheer?
[13:20] Suzuha
    Not anymore.
[13:21] Anna
    Aw...
[13:22] Anna
    I'll do top, then.
[13:25] Nodoka
    You're too big, Anna-chan.
    I won't be able to hold you up.
[13:29] Anna
    You do it then, Nodoka.
SIGN    Miyako Mental Clinic
[13:39] Kanata
    Megumi... My friend and I made a promise.
[13:43] Kanata
    And I don't want to be a burden on my seniors.
[13:47] Doctor
    Yips tends to affect serious people more.
[13:51] Doctor
    You've been in cheer since fifth grade, was it?
[13:53] Kanata
    Yes.
[13:54] Kanata
    My family and I went to watch a baseball game,
    and I liked how cute the cheering was.
[13:59] Doctor
    Yeah?
[14:01] Kanata
    But that's not all.
[14:03] Doctor
    You place your lives into each other's hands.
[14:08] Doctor
    It must have terrified you.
[14:18] Nodoka
    There is no clear treatment for yips.
[14:22] (Flashback) Megumi
    Maybe we can support Kanata.
[14:36] Anna; Nodoka; Megumi
    A new song?
[14:38] Nodoka
    About Kanata-chan and Megumi-chan?
[14:40] Shion
    Yeah.
[14:41] Shion
    I was listening to Megumi-chan and...
[14:44] Megumi
    Shion-chan...
[14:45] Shion
    It'd be nice if someone could sing it.
[14:48] Megumi
    Huh?
[14:49] Suzuha
    Why?
[14:50] Anna
    Because you're tone deaf?
[14:51] Nodoka
    Anna-chan!
[14:52] Shion
    Yeah.
[14:53] Shion
    You can't really focus on the lyrics
    if you're distracted by my bad singing.
[14:58] Shion
    I think it'll be more moving
    if it's sung by a good singer.
[15:02] Suzuha
    That's not true.
[15:03] Suzuha
    You wrote the song.
[15:05] Suzuha
    You understand the song better than anyone.
[15:09] Suzuha
    I want to hear you sing more than
    I want to hear a good singer sing.
[15:11] Suzuha
    It's cute how you're tone deaf.
[15:12] Suzuha
    I like it more, actually.
[15:14] Shion
    Y-You do?
[15:18] Nodoka
    Suzuha-chan, you're so...
[15:21] Anna
    She ran away.
[15:23] Anna
    Suzuha!
[15:25] Nodoka
    Suzuha-chan!
[15:33] Shion
    Obunai-san?
[15:37] Suzuha
    I'm sorry about the other day.
[15:41] Suzuha
    I wanted to apologize this whole time.
[15:44] Suzuha
    But I thought you might hate me. I was scared.
[15:49] Shion
    Why?
[15:54] (Flashback) Girl A
    Why are you always so angry, Suzuha-chan?
[15:56] (Flashback) Girl B
    Why don't you smile?
[16:00] (Flashback) Girl C
    Suzuha-chan's scary.
[16:03] (Flashback) Suzuha
    I'm not angry...
[16:09] Suzuha
    I'm so expressionless that people get
    the wrong idea and end up hating me.
[16:14] Suzuha
    I even quit cheer, because I can't smile.
[16:19] Shion
    I think you're awesome, Obunai-san.
[16:24] Shion
    You're so relaxed and true to yourself.
[16:27] Shion
    And you're free, unlike me.
[16:30] Shion
    I've thought so since the entrance ceremony.
[16:35] Shion
    But I could never tell you.
[16:37] Shion
    I could only ever say hi.
[16:41] Shion
    If it's all right with you, I want to...
[16:43] Suzuha
    Tanizaki-san...
[16:45] Anna
    Suzuha! There you are!
[16:52] Anna
    We're doing cheer!
[16:53] Anna
    Suzuha, you should be top!
[16:56] Suzuha
    Me?
[16:57] Shion
    I want to see you do cheer, Obunai-san.
[16:59] Shion
    I'll work on my song, too.

    How was the clinic?
[17:26] Kanata
    They said to relax.
[17:29] Kanata
    We don't know what's causing my yips yet.
[17:32] Megumi
    I see.
[17:34] Megumi
    It's scary facing something
    you don't understand, huh?
[17:39] Megumi
    I'll help you think about it.
[17:42] Megumi
    After the surgery,
    I couldn't even pick up my chopsticks.
[17:47] Megumi
    I thought I might never do cheer again.
[17:51] Megumi
    But you always came to check on me.
[17:56] Megumi
    I'm able to stick with PT

[19:10] Kanata
    A new song?
[19:12] Shion
    We were going to tell you
    after it was a little more polished.
[19:16] Anna
    We're doing it to support you!
[19:17] Nodoka
    We're telling her?!
[19:19] Kanata
    Hey... Can I join?
[19:23] Anna
    You should!
[19:24] Suzuha
    But the point is to cheer for you.
[19:26] Kanata
    Can't I? I want to cheer for me, too.
[19:31] Anna
    Yup, yup.
[19:34] Megumi
    Kanata...
[19:37] Megumi
    Be careful!
[19:39] Shion
    I'll catch you.
[19:41] Kanata
    Okay.
[19:52] Kanata
    Sorry.
[19:53] Nodoka
    It's okay.
[19:55] Nodoka
    They say cheer means believing in the person
    you're cheering for no matter what.
[20:01] Kanata
    Believe?
[20:02] Nodoka
    Yeah.
[20:03] Nodoka
    And we're cheering for you this time.
[20:06] Kanata
    Believe in me?
[20:10] Nodoka
    I just stole that line
    from my senpai on the committee.
[20:14] Megumi
    I know. Kanata.
[20:16] Kanata
    What?
[20:17] Megumi
    Here. This is yours.
[20:20] Kanata
    You made it for me?
[20:22] Megumi
    I put my heart into it.
[20:25] Megumi
    I'm rooting for you, too.
[20:27] Kanata
    Okay.
[20:37] (Flashback) Cheerleader
    You're good at that. Let's cheer together.
[20:39] Kanata
    Okay!
[20:51] Kanata
    I flew.
[20:57] Anna
    You did it, Kanata!
[20:59] Kanata
    Anna-chan!
[21:00] Shion
    You did it, Kanata-chan!
[21:04] Shion
    That was amazing!
[22:45] Shion
    Obunai-san...
[22:49] Suzuha
    I liked your rap.
[22:51] Shion
    Really?
[22:52] Shion
    It was thanks to you.
[22:55] Suzuha
    It wasn't thanks to me.
[23:00] Suzuha
    U-Um, if it's all right...
[23:03] Suzuha
    You know that song
    you were singing at the temple?
[23:07] Suzuha
    I want to hear it again.
[23:10] Shion
    That song's about how great you are.
[23:14] Shion
    It's a bit embarrassing.
[23:21] Shion
    Obunai-san?!
[23:22] Shion
    Obunai-san!
