**[00:13] ---**
Are you guys all right?
**[00:15] ---**
We're all right!
**[00:17] ---**
You never say otherwise.
**[00:20] ---**
Rei's right!
**[00:22] ---**
Let's go, Doc. Rei.
**[00:24] ---**
Okay!
**[00:25] ---**
Right.
**[00:39] ---**
The future that is filled with hopes
**[00:42] ---**
The dream I imagined over and over
**[00:46] ---**
Will change tomorrow
**[00:48] ---**
Keep on moving forward,
**[00:50] ---**
Believe in Sky
**[01:03] ---**
The unknown road, taking the first step
**[01:10] ---**
That courage brings new encounters
**[01:15] ---**
When the door connecting the
worlds opens, let's move forward
**[01:19] ---**
Tenderly holding the precious memories
**[01:23] ---**
Of the day we promised each other
**[01:26] ---**
When you get lost, stretch big
**[01:31] ---**
And feel the new wind
**[01:34] ---**
Okay, Start Now!
**[01:37] ---**
Because I have something
to believe in and protect
**[01:44] ---**
I can be strong, stronger
than myself yesterday
**[01:49] ---**
The future that is filled with hopes
**[01:51] ---**
The dream I imagined over and over
**[01:55] ---**
Will change tomorrow
**[01:58] ---**
Keep on moving forward,
**[02:00] ---**
Believe in Sky
**[02:09] ---**
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KIDS ARE THE BEST!
**[02:16] ---**
Wow, it's beautiful!
**[02:48] ---**
Oh, sorry if I startled you.
**[02:51] ---**
O-oh, no.
**[02:54] ---**
You were so cool that I
had to take some pictures!
**[02:57] ---**
You're so great!
**[02:58] ---**
Well, I'm...
**[03:01] ---**
When I see something good, I
always take pictures of it.
**[03:05] ---**
That way, I won't forget, you know?
**[03:24] ---**
Hup, hup, hup!
**[03:27] ---**
Hey, Komachi.
**[03:29] ---**
Huh?
**[03:30] ---**
What are you looking for?
You're supposed to be cleaning.
**[03:32] ---**
Well, I can't find it.
**[03:37] ---**
What's wrong, Komachi?
**[03:39] ---**
You know, I'm looking for
the novel the girl who was
**[03:42] ---**
playing basketball at the park cherished.
**[03:45] ---**
Well... what was the title of it?
**[03:48] ---**
Geez. How can you not know
and still look for it?
**[03:51] ---**
What am I gonna do? Help me, Doc!
**[03:55] ---**
It'll be fine. Hey, do you
remember how she looked?
**[04:02] ---**
I took a picture of her with the
camera you made so I wouldn't forget.
**[04:07] ---**
Wow, that's perfect! Wait a second.
**[04:12] ---**
H-hey, where are you putting your hand in?!
**[04:16] ---**
My special "Saori Radar"!
**[04:22] ---**
What's that?
**[04:23] ---**
Saori, you got something strange again?
**[04:26] ---**
It's not strange!
**[04:27] ---**
This can read the information of whatever
Saori’s special camera takes a picture of,
**[04:32] ---**
and then we can find what was lost.
**[04:34] ---**
It's my invention!
**[04:37] ---**
Well, I don't understand it
entirely, but way to go, Doc!
**[04:41] ---**
Boy, organizing this place takes forever...
**[04:44] ---**
We also have to organize these products
when we have time.
**[04:47] ---**
I feel better when I'm moving around.
**[04:54] ---**
Huh?
**[04:56] ---**
Huh?
**[04:59] ---**
Oh, there it is!
**[05:02] ---**
Wh-what?
**[05:03] ---**
Oh! Yes! It was "Mini Basket!"!
**[05:06] ---**
Oh, you were looking for "Mini Basket!"?
**[05:09] ---**
You know it, Doc?
**[05:13] ---**
Of course!
**[05:15] ---**
It's about elementary school girls
who devote their lives to basketball.
**[05:18] ---**
It's a classic light novel that depicts
their adolescence and growth!
**[05:22] ---**
Boy... I know there are no customers,
but they're way too relaxed.
**[05:27] ---**
Oh, thanks.
**[05:29] ---**
No problem. Make yourself at home.
**[05:32] ---**
Okay.
**[05:34] ---**
Komachi, you're reading a book. That's rare.
**[05:38] ---**
What's up?
**[05:42] ---**
I know, right? I'll tell you...
**[05:45] ---**
All my teammates seem
to have forgotten about "Mini Basket!"
**[05:51] ---**
What's "Mini Basket!"?
**[05:53] ---**
It's a light novel about basketball.
**[05:57] ---**
It's the reason we started
playing basketball.
**[06:03] ---**
Is it because of the virus?
**[06:05] ---**
Yes, probably...
**[06:07] ---**
It even destroys the bond between friends.
**[06:11] ---**
That's unforgivable.
**[06:13] ---**
That's why I wanted to know more about the story
and thought I would read it!
**[06:18] ---**
Cute elementary school girls...
**[06:20] ---**
With a high school boy as their coach...
**[06:23] ---**
Who teaches them basketball gently...
**[06:25] ---**
By taking their hands?
**[06:27] ---**
That's exactly right!
**[06:29] ---**
I-It sounds sort of dangerous...
**[06:32] ---**
I know what you mean, but he's not naughty.
**[06:35] ---**
Is he ONLY teaching basketball?
**[06:37] ---**
Huh? What else could it be?
**[06:39] ---**
Hey, Minami?!
**[06:48] ---**
Hey, Komachi?
**[06:50] ---**
A-are you all right?
**[06:56] ---**
THIS IS GOOD... IT'S MAKING ME CRY!
**[07:03] ---**
They're all so focused, working
hard for each other...
**[07:08] ---**
It's priceless!
**[07:11] ---**
I-Is it that good?
**[07:13] ---**
I know, right?!
**[07:15] ---**
And these games are so exciting!
Not only that, that girl...
**[07:19] ---**
becomes so good...
**[07:22] ---**
I know, I know! Komachi!
**[07:26] ---**
I don't quite get it.
**[07:28] ---**
But I know they like it.
**[07:31] ---**
To like someone's work, that
shows talent. It's great.
**[07:39] ---**
A virus!
**[07:41] ---**
It's the Black Elites!
**[07:46] ---**
So that means, if we go into the
world of this novel and get rid of the virus...
**[07:54] ---**
You're right. Then the girl's friends will...
**[07:57] ---**
Restore their memories!
**[07:59] ---**
Good! I gotta do this!
**[08:02] ---**
Well then. We should get going!
**[08:17] ---**
See you later!
**[08:19] ---**
Take care of the shop.
**[08:20] ---**
Salute!
**[08:34] ---**
Wow! Oh, they're so cute!
**[08:42] ---**
I knew the world of "Mini Basket!"
would be full of cute girls!
**[08:47] ---**
Hey, you shouldn't take
pictures without permission.
**[08:51] ---**
Rei, cuteness is justice, you know?
**[08:54] ---**
It's a human treasure
we must leave to future generations.
**[08:57] ---**
Still, you have to use common sense!
**[09:03] ---**
What's the matter?!
**[09:05] ---**
I-in the gym...
**[09:07] ---**
GYM
**[09:08] ---**
A bunch of strange things came...
**[09:19] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[09:36] ---**
Now is a good time to flee outside!
**[09:39] ---**
O-okay.
**[09:46] ---**
What do we do? These viruses are everywhere.
**[09:49] ---**
Unless you destroy the mother virus,
they will continue to multiply!
**[09:52] ---**
All right! I'll get rid of them all again!
**[09:57] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:58] ---**
Okay!
**[10:09] ---**
I knew you would come.
**[10:11] ---**
Maya!
**[10:12] ---**
You always interrupt me.
You must have a lot of time on your hands.
**[10:17] ---**
None of your business. Just
get out of this world!
**[10:20] ---**
"Sure!"
**[10:22] ---**
Do you really expect me to say that?!
**[10:24] ---**
Why are you doing this? Poor girls!
**[10:30] ---**
You know... I just can't
stand cute little girls!
**[10:36] ---**
Because of novels like this,
young girls become popular...
**[10:41] ---**
leaving me unable to get married!
**[10:44] ---**
That's gotta be the reason!
**[10:46] ---**
What?!
**[10:47] ---**
Is that the reason...?
**[10:49] ---**
I don't think so.
**[10:51] ---**
I think she's just taking it out on them.
**[10:53] ---**
I agree...
**[10:55] ---**
That's all the more reason
for her to leave this world.
**[10:59] ---**
Oh my goodness. You're
using force. So violent.
**[11:02] ---**
You started all this!
**[11:05] ---**
Solving a problem with
force isn't good, you know.
**[11:09] ---**
Let's see...
**[11:11] ---**
How about a game of basketball?
**[11:15] ---**
Why? How could you make it about that?
**[11:18] ---**
Oh, you don't think you'll win, maybe?
**[11:21] ---**
I would love to play three-on-three!
**[11:24] ---**
If we win, you're going to
leave this world, okay?!
**[11:28] ---**
Huh? Hey!
**[11:31] ---**
Well then, we'll play here after school!
**[11:34] ---**
Don't you run away!
**[11:35] ---**
Why would we?!
**[11:37] ---**
We're absolutely going to win!
**[11:39] ---**
My, you're full of yourself. But...
**[11:43] ---**
I'll beat your sorry asses!
**[11:51] ---**
We have no time to waste, Doc!
**[11:54] ---**
We must practice right away!
**[11:56] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:57] ---**
Let's do it! Let's do it!
**[11:59] ---**
For real?
**[12:04] ---**
Okay, let's go!
**[12:10] ---**
Hey, are you okay?
**[12:12] ---**
Huh? It went like that in
"Mini Basket!", though...
**[12:19] ---**
Shooting at 45 degrees, height 3.05,
**[12:23] ---**
and distance 4.6...
**[12:27] ---**
This is it!
**[12:30] ---**
What?! It was perfect in the calculation!
**[12:35] ---**
How can we play a game like this?
**[12:44] ---**
Oh? Where's the practice tea-?
**[12:46] ---**
Wow!
**[12:48] ---**
Huh? Who's he?
**[12:49] ---**
He's the coach in "Mini Basket!"
**[12:52] ---**
Wow, this is awesome! He's real!
**[12:54] ---**
Huh?
**[12:55] ---**
I know! Coach, we need to ask you a favor!
**[12:58] ---**
What?
**[12:58] ---**
Teach us how to play basketball!
**[13:01] ---**
Why?
**[13:02] ---**
We have to play a game with Black Elites!
**[13:06] ---**
"Black... Elites"?
**[13:09] ---**
If we lose, this world will disappear!
**[13:13] ---**
This world would... disappear?
**[13:16] ---**
Don't you get it?!
**[13:21] ---**
If we lose the game...
the elementary school kids will disappear!
**[13:27] ---**
The kids will... disappear?!
**[13:34] ---**
That can't happen!
**[13:37] ---**
I will NEVER let that happen!
**[13:40] ---**
Now, let's practice! For
the elementary school kids!
**[13:44] ---**
Yeah!
**[13:46] ---**
That's his motivation? Is that healthy?
**[13:49] ---**
Good!
**[13:50] ---**
Now that it's been decided...
**[13:52] ---**
Memorial Change!
**[14:01] ---**
Ta-dah~
**[14:07] ---**
Ah... what? Me too?
**[14:12] ---**
Geez. I can't believe this...
**[14:16] ---**
Hmm. We have until after school.
**[14:19] ---**
Coach! We want to be good basketball players!
**[14:23] ---**
We'll endure any practice!
**[14:27] ---**
Well then, let's work
on one skill per person.
**[14:32] ---**
And we'll work together to gain points.
**[14:34] ---**
Yeah!
**[14:42] ---**
Good! The lower body is the
key! Move your waist more!
**[14:47] ---**
Yes, Coach!
**[14:50] ---**
Is this really effective...?
**[14:53] ---**
You must tantalize your opponents
until they can't stand it anymore!
**[14:58] ---**
Slowly, but with swelling fire within!
**[15:02] ---**
Okay!
**[15:03] ---**
What's this practice for...?
**[15:06] ---**
Now, you do this!
**[15:08] ---**
What?
**[15:10] ---**
Such delicate, yet bold movements of the fingers.
And you must see the right timing!
**[15:18] ---**
Good, that's great!
**[15:20] ---**
Uh, what is?
**[15:21] ---**
And the most important thing
is... to work together!
**[15:25] ---**
Hup!
**[15:26] ---**
Hup!
**[15:30] ---**
That's it!
**[15:34] ---**
Man, I can't believe what we're doing.
**[15:37] ---**
No? I actually enjoy it.
**[15:41] ---**
Me, too!
**[15:44] ---**
I think I can understand the
little girl's feelings a bit.
**[15:47] ---**
The girl you met at the park?
**[15:50] ---**
Yeah!
**[15:51] ---**
I enjoy playing basketball itself,
**[15:54] ---**
but I enjoy working on something
with my friends even more.
**[15:59] ---**
Well, I guess you're right.
**[16:05] ---**
Let's do this together, Rei. Doc!
**[16:10] ---**
Everyone...
**[16:12] ---**
I'll teach you one last important thing.
**[16:16] ---**
Enjoy the basketball all the way!
**[16:21] ---**
Right!
**[16:22] ---**
Go kill 'em!
**[16:26] ---**
I see you didn't run away.
**[16:27] ---**
Of course not!
**[16:33] ---**
Playing against this tall center and these
**[16:36] ---**
floating shooters, do you
really think you can win?
**[16:39] ---**
That's not fair!
**[16:41] ---**
It'll be fine, it'll be fine!
**[16:43] ---**
We practiced a lot!
**[16:45] ---**
Yeah.
**[16:46] ---**
All right, let's beat 'em!
**[16:49] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:52] ---**
Go get them!
**[16:59] ---**
Okay! Now!
**[17:17] ---**
He isn't the coach for nothing!
He knew this would happen!
**[17:23] ---**
There!
**[17:25] ---**
Komachi!
**[17:30] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:31] ---**
We did it!
**[17:34] ---**
Great job, everyone!
**[17:36] ---**
They did it!
**[17:39] ---**
When you dribble, you
must use your lower body!
**[17:42] ---**
Attract your opponent enough,
and then pass the ball!
**[17:50] ---**
That coach was right on point!
**[17:53] ---**
What the hell?!
**[17:58] ---**
With a delicate, yet powerful touch!
**[18:02] ---**
Awesome, Rei!
**[18:19] ---**
Good! We're tied!
**[18:21] ---**
Keep it up!
**[18:22] ---**
No! I thought this would be an easy win!
**[18:26] ---**
I have to do something.
**[18:34] ---**
Komachi!
**[18:35] ---**
Komachi!
**[18:38] ---**
What should I do?
**[18:39] ---**
Enjoy the basketball all the way!
**[18:43] ---**
Okay!
**[18:59] ---**
Go for it!
**[19:09] ---**
She did it!
**[19:11] ---**
It's not over yet!
**[19:29] ---**
Oh no...
**[19:33] ---**
Winning by a buzzer beater
shot is just the best way!
**[19:38] ---**
Well then, a promise is a promise.
**[19:41] ---**
This light novel's world will be...
**[19:44] ---**
Don't...!
**[19:47] ---**
Huh...?
**[19:50] ---**
You switched the ball?
That's against the rules!
**[19:53] ---**
That's not fair!
**[19:55] ---**
Are you happy you won like that?!
**[19:59] ---**
To hell with the basketball game!
**[20:01] ---**
This calls for a battle. Go, little viruses!
**[20:09] ---**
So, just as always in the end.
**[20:12] ---**
Looks like it.
**[20:13] ---**
But I think it'll be over faster this time.
**[20:17] ---**
Memorial Change!
**[20:45] ---**
I hate this!
**[20:55] ---**
It's over!
**[20:56] ---**
That was unpredictable.
**[20:59] ---**
Basketball was fun!
**[21:01] ---**
Yeah, not so bad.
**[21:06] ---**
Now the elementary school kids are...
**[21:11] ---**
...protected.
**[21:13] ---**
They're safe and sound!
**[21:15] ---**
I'm so happy. I'm so happy!
**[21:18] ---**
Fall is for sports
Fall is for basketball
**[21:20] ---**
Welcome back.
**[21:22] ---**
Oh? What's wrong?
**[21:24] ---**
Oh my God, I wanna train
cute girls like them.
**[21:28] ---**
How can they stand up again in that situation?
That's awesome. They're so cool!
**[21:34] ---**
What's this?
**[21:36] ---**
Well, we all read and loved
the "Mini Basket!" novels...
**[21:40] ---**
Wow, I can't help being
overwhelmed! You know!
**[21:45] ---**
That good, huh?
**[21:53] ---**
I guess her friends remembered it, too.
**[21:55] ---**
A happy ending.
**[22:22] ---**
The world I long for and cherish
**[22:28] ---**
Is always in my heart (here)
**[22:31] ---**
It won't fade
**[22:34] ---**
Days when we laugh till our tears fall
**[22:39] ---**
Or get depressed because of mishaps
**[22:45] ---**
We can help each other face obstacles
**[22:50] ---**
We'll make sure to get it back
**[22:57] ---**
To hopes
**[23:00] ---**
When protecting what we cherish
**[23:05] ---**
Tremendous amounts of
power well up from inside
**[23:12] ---**
Because you're here, I won't give up
**[23:17] ---**
I'll push forward, I decided
**[23:23] ---**
Strong bond "miracle" shines and sparkles
