[00:04] Seshiru
    What?! What in the world?
[00:08] Emiko
    What's the matter, Seshiru?
[00:10] Seshiru
    They've swapped out Fox One's whole lineup!
[00:13] Emiko
    Is that bad?
[00:15] Seshiru
    It totally sucks!
[00:16] Seshiru
    My fave, Yurukki, isn't playing!
[00:19] Emiko
    Did you just come here to watch your fave?
[00:23] Seshiru
    Of course I did!
[00:24] Seshiru
    Why else would I?
[00:26] Emiko
    You said esports was fun,
[00:29] Emiko
    so I thought you came to watch the matches.
[00:32] Seshiru
    I came to watch Yurukki's matches, duh!
[00:34] Seshiru
    But he didn't say a thing
    on social media about quitting!
[00:40] Seshiru
    Who even are they?
[00:41] Seshiru
    A creepy guy, a boring guy, and a flirt...
[00:44] Seshiru
    And two girls, one in a mask!
[00:48] Seshiru
    How dare you?!
[00:50] Seshiru
    You'll pay, Fox One!
[00:52] Seshiru
    Give me back my fave!
[00:59] Akito
    Jonathan?
[01:01] Akito
    What's going on here?
[01:03] Sota
    So that's why I couldn't talk him out
     of quitting. He had a new team lined up.
[01:07] Yu
    If you're gonna be in the finals,
[01:09] Yu
    might as well be on a winning team.
[01:14] Jonathan
    Fox One's seen a full turnover.
[01:17] Jonathan
    I didn't think everyone would quit
    the minute I left.
[01:21] Coach
    What's going on here, Jonathan?
[01:22] Coach
    These aren't the members
    in the data you brought me.
[01:25] Jonathan
    It should be fine, Coach.
[01:27] Jonathan
    They're all amateurs.
[01:29] Coach
    Amateurs?
[01:31] Jonathan
    Customers and part-time workers from the shop.
[01:34] Jonathan
    We won't need their data.
[01:36] Coach
    All right.
[01:38] Coach
    With Kaizo out, this will be up to you.
[01:40] Coach
    Give us your best.
[01:42] Jonathan
    Yes, sir.
[01:43] Mutsuki
    Go all out, Jonathan-san.
[01:46] Mutsuki
    We're counting on your skill as our IGL.
[01:49] Jonathan
    Yes. I'm counting on you too, Rox.
[01:52] Mutsuki
    Roger.
[03:26] Sota
    With a lineup like that,
    Jonathan must be the IGL,
[03:28] sign
    Episode 4
    A Promise That Connects
    -3way Handshaking-
[03:30] Sota
    their in-game leader.
[03:32] Shun
    What should we do?
[03:33] Akito
    Focus on Jonathan if he's calling the shots?
[03:36] Nozomi
    If he plays his usual way,
    he'll stay off the front lines.
[03:39] Ryusei
    Maybe we should stick to our original plan?
[03:43] Sota
    Listen up.
[03:44] Sota
    How's about our well-coordinated trio
    that goes way back,
[03:47] Sota
    Shun, 656, and Zané,
    attack as a three-man cell?
[03:53] Sota
    Phantom Ninja and Daneko, you give
    commando support where necessary.
[03:58] All
    Copy.
[04:01] Akito
    I can't believe "Zané" stuck.
[04:03] Ryusei
    You've got it better than me.
[04:04] Ryusei
    I'm freaking "Daneko"!
[04:07] Yu
    I can't believe we're up
    against the favorites first.
[04:10] Nozomi
    And our team's former top player, at that.
[04:13] Shun
    Still, we've got to win.
[04:17] Sota
    That's right!
[04:18] Sota
    I can't pay my debts unless you win!
[04:22] Sota
    I'm counting on you guys!
[04:28] MC
    All right, let's start the Xaxxerion
     championship playoffs
[04:31] MC
    with the first match of Group A!
[04:33] MC
    It's favorite Sleeping Owl versus
[04:35] MC
    a team in their first top-eight appearance,
[04:38] MC
    Team Fox One!
[04:40] Akito
    Figured Jonathan would use Longshot.
[04:43] Nozomi
    He can direct the whole team while
    surveying the field as a sniper.
[04:46] Nozomi
    That's his typical MO.
[04:48] Shun
    Their ace player, Rox, is playing Persuader
     with a high-caliber assault rifle.
[04:52] Yu
    So he's an aggressive attacker
     with lots of kills.
[04:55] Yu
    Just like you, Shun.
[04:56] Akito
    Me on Longshot and 656 on Spreader
     can provide Shun backup.
[05:00] Shun
    Let's start off guarding Point A.
[05:02] Akito
    Then Phantom on Sanada and
    Daneko on Heavybarrel can watch B.
[05:06] Ryusei
    Stop calling me Daneko, Zané!
[05:08] Akito
    Don't call me Zané, Daneko!
[05:12] MC
    The match starts in...
[05:14] All
    Five!
[05:15] All
    Four!
[05:16] All
    Three!
[05:17] All
    Two!
[05:18] All
    One!
[05:21] All
    Open fire!
[05:23] MC
    Sleeping Owl is the attacker for round 1.
[05:26] MC
    Team Fox One is defending.
[05:28] MC
    Now, what kind of back-and-forth will we see?
[05:31] Emiko
    Hey, Seshiru.
[05:32] Emiko
    Do you have to beat everyone
    on the other team to win?
[05:34] Seshiru
    Emiko, didn't you learn
    the rules before you came?
[05:37] Emiko
    You know this is my first time.
[05:39] Seshiru
    Honestly, you're pitiful.
[05:42] Seshiru
    You start with one team attacking
    and one team defending.
[05:47] Seshiru
    Sleeping Owl's the attacker right now.
[05:49] Seshiru
    Fox One is the defender.
[05:51] Seshiru
    The attacking team needs to set a bomb
[05:54] Seshiru
    called an eraser at their target
    within the time limit.
[05:58] Seshiru
    If they can set it off, they win the round.
[06:01] Seshiru
    The team only gets one eraser.
[06:03] Seshiru
    They can plant it at one of two
    targets: Point A or Point B.
[06:07] Seshiru
    Either one will get you the win.
[06:12] Akito
    They're rushing Point A!
    Might be their whole team!
[06:14] Yu
    En route to A!
[06:16] Ryusei
    I'll come around the back!
[06:17] Seshiru
    If the defending team prevents
    the explosion, they take the round.
[06:21] Seshiru
    The first team to bag
    seven rounds is the victor.
[06:26] Ryusei
    I return to the darkness...
[06:27] Akito
    No way! A frag there?
[06:29] Shun
    We're just one man down.
[06:30] Shun
    We're not out yet.
[06:31] Emiko
    What was that?
[06:33] Seshiru
    A frag grenade.
[06:36] Seshiru
    There are also smoke and flash grenades.
[06:40] Seshiru
    Each player starts the game with
    their preferred selection of three.
[06:50] Shun
    I haven't seen Rox.
[06:52] Shun
    Is he hiding in the back?
[06:59] VO
    Eraser set.
[07:01] Shun
    The eraser's down!
[07:03] Nozomi
    It's not at point A.
[07:04] Nozomi
    It's at B!
[07:05] Akito
    The rush was a diversion?!
[07:07] Nozomi
    I'm heading to B.
[07:09] Emiko
    Sleeping Owl set their bomb?
[07:11] Seshiru
    Forty-five seconds to detonation.
[07:13] Seshiru
    If Fox One can disarm it in time,
    they win the round.
[07:17] Shun
    Help me with peek shots.
[07:18] Nozomi
    Copy.
[07:22] Shun
    I can't get out there!
[07:23] Shun
    We're out of time!
[07:26] Akito
    You're in my way!
[07:29] Akito
    Damn it!
[07:33] VO
    Round lost.
[07:37] Emiko
    Fox One lost, huh?
[07:39] Seshiru
    If they lose six more rounds, they're done.
[07:43] Akito
    Okay.
[07:45] Akito
    This time, let's have four
    fan out to protect B.
[07:48] Shun
    Copy.
[07:58] Yu
    They're rushing B!
[08:00] Akito
    We figured 'em out this time!
[08:01] Akito
    Hang in there!
[08:03] Nozomi
    There's one here too.
[08:06] Nozomi
    They got me?!
[08:07] Shun
    I'll check them!
[08:11] Shun
    Persuader!
[08:14] Shun
    Rox!
[08:16] Shun
    If I throw a flash at this range,
    it'll take three seconds to detonate.
[08:20] Shun
    Then I'll leap out and take him down!
[08:24] Shun
    Three, two, one!
[08:29] Shun
    A flash grenade?!
[08:31] Shun
    I can't see, but I know this map!
[08:34] Shun
    Given his prior position,
    his next hiding place would be...
[08:37] Shun
    There!
[08:39] Shun
    A frag grenade?
[08:40] Shun
    Changing location!
[09:04] Shun
    He did just what I did...
    at the exact same time?
[09:11] Mutsuki
    Nice work.
[09:17] VO
    Round lost.
[09:19] Akito
    Shit!
[09:20] Nozomi
    We're not out yet.
[09:23] Yu
    Yes!
[09:25] VO
    Team ace.
[09:27] Yu
    What in the world?!
[09:30] MC
    Daneko defeated Riii!
[09:32] MC
    Now, can he disarm the eraser in time?!
[09:34] Colorcaster
    I'm not sure...
[09:37] VO
    Clutch!
[09:38] Ryusei
    I was too late!
[09:43] Nozomi
    Akito, do something!
[09:47] VO
    Perfect!
[09:48] Akito
    You're kidding me!
[09:50] VO
    First half complete.
[09:52] MC
    We'll swap sides now.
[09:53] MC
    We'll give the teams time to discuss strategy.
[09:55] MC
    It's currently five to zero
    in favor of Sleeping Owl!
[10:00] Akito
    This is bad.
[10:01] Sota
    Yeah, it is. What'll we do?
[10:04] Nozomi
    Dad, you're our coach! Tell us what to do!
[10:07] Sota
    Well, watching you fight
    in the first half made me think...
[10:15] Sota
    Sleeping Owl is really good.
[10:18] Nozomi
    We don't need your opinion!
[10:20] Nozomi
    We need a plan!
[10:23] Sota
    A plan, eh?
[10:25] Sota
    You're on offense now, so...
[10:30] Sota
    Work hard, everyone!
[10:32] Nozomi
    We are working hard!
[10:34] Akito
    Are we really that weak?
[10:38] Shun
    Well, we're playing pros.
[10:40] Akito
    We were invincible back then.
[10:43] Akito
    Back when we played with Explosion-kun.
[10:46] Shun
    Yeah. We were invincible.
[10:55] MC
    The second-half matches will start soon.
[10:57] MC
    How can Team Fox One turn the tables?
[11:00] Colorcaster
    The key will be responding
    to Sleeping Owl's speed.
[11:04] Akito
    Okay, let's make a fresh start.
[11:08] Nozomi
    We're out if we lose two more rounds.
[11:10] Ryusei
    We've got to take seven here.
[11:13] Akito
    What do you wanna do, Shun?
[11:16] Shun
    Let's all rush B together.
[11:17] Nozomi
    What if they anticipate it?
[11:20] Shun
    That would be bad.
[11:21] Shun
    But we'll be okay.
[11:24] Shun
    If we go down, we go together.
[11:26] Akito
    Don't let it bother you.
    It's just a thing Shun says.
[11:29] Yu
    Yeah, okay...
[11:32] Akito
    All right, let's do this!
[11:34] VO
    Open fire!
[11:42] Shun
    Phantom?
[11:43] Yu
    I'm breaking through.
[11:45] Yu
    Clear!
[11:46] Shun
    What's the plan?
[11:47] Yu
    The commando squad...
[11:49] Yu
    will play it by ear!
[11:51] Akito
    They're wide open!
[11:53] Akito
    Check your surroundings
    and cover the bomb!
[11:55] Ryusei
    Planting bomb right meow!
[11:59] VO
    Eraser set.
[12:01] Nozomi
    They're here!
[12:02] Akito
    Keep them back!
[12:03] Nozomi
    Could use a smoke grenade!
[12:04] Shun
    Copy!
[12:06] Shun
    We will hold them back!
[12:08] Yu
    Shun.
[12:10] Yu
    Frag grenade!
[12:15] Yu
    I'm going in!
[12:16] Shun
    I'm with you!
[12:19] Yu
    There's one more back here!
[12:21] Shun
    Clear!
[12:22] Yu
    Nice cover.
[12:25] Nozomi
    One enemy here. Keep 'em back!
[12:27] Ryusei
    Copy.
[12:29] Ryusei
    Face the wrath of darknyess!
[12:42] Akito
    I'll lure Jonathan this way.
[12:45] Ryusei/Shun/Nozomi
    Copy!
[12:52] Shun
    Let's move out.
[12:53] Shun
    They can't disarm it in time.
[12:58] VO
    Won!
[13:01] Akito/Ryusei
    Yeah!
[13:03] Nozomi/Shun
    All right!
[13:09] Emiko
    They finally took a round, huh?
[13:12] Emiko
    But making a comeback won't be easy.
[13:16] Emiko
    What's up, Seshiru?
[13:17] Seshiru
    Oh... nothing.
[13:20] MC
    Round two of the second half!
[13:22] MC
    Can Team Fox One keep up the momentum?
[13:25] Shun
    Rush A!
[13:26] Nozomi/Yu
    Copy!
[13:28] Shun
    Nice!
[13:29] Akito
    Yeah!
[13:30] Akito
    I'm going for it!
[13:31] Yu
    Wait a minute!
[13:47] Yu
    Footsteps behind the wall to your right!
[13:49] Shun
    Copy!
[13:51] Yu
    Nice.
[13:52] Yu
    There's one more back there!
[13:56] Shun
    Done!
[13:57] Nozomi
    Planting the bomb!
[13:59] Akito
    I dunno where the remaining enemy is.
[14:02] Akito
    Stay within sight and cover each passage!
[14:06] VO
    Eraser set.
[14:10] Jonathan
    The back route is wide open.
[14:13] Jonathan
    A smoke grenade here?
[14:15] Jonathan
    It's not compromising me at all.
[14:21] Ryusei
    Be consumed by the darknyess!
[14:25] Seshiru
    Are you kidding me with that creepy nerd?
[14:27] Emiko
    Did he get better all of a sudden?
[14:29] Seshiru
    Swapping sides really switched things up.
[14:31] Emiko
    What do you mean?
[14:32] Seshiru
    It just so happens the map and team
    makeup favors them when they're attacking.
[14:36] Seshiru
    And the masked girl changed position
    to work a four-man formation.
[14:40] Seshiru
    Their teamwork's great, too.
[14:45] VO
    Perfect!
[14:48] Riii
    That's bizarre!
[14:49] Riii
    You can't attack from there!
[14:51] Gettsu
    They're serious amateurs.
[14:52] Gettsu
    Their strat's so sloppy, I don't get it.
[14:57] Nozomi
    Shun-chan, last one!
[14:59] Shun
    Copy!
[15:06] Shun
    Don't worry. I've got your back.
[15:10] VO
    Match point.
[15:15] Akito
    Let's finish this!
[15:16] All
    Copy!
[15:19] Akito
    One down!
[15:21] Akito
    Two down!
[15:22] Akito
    Rush out with me!
[15:29] Ryusei
    The wrath of darknyess!
[15:32] Jonathan
    What?!
[15:33] Nozomi
    Installing eraser!
[15:36] Jonathan
    Riii, Sharon! Stop them!
[15:52] MC
    This game is over!
[15:55] MC
    The winner is...
[15:58] MC
    Team Fox One!
[16:01] Akito
    Hell yeah!
[16:02] Ryusei
    Wow, I'm exhausted!
[16:06] Sota
    You won!
[16:07] Sota
    You beat the almighty Sleeping Owl!
[16:09] Akito
    Chill out, old man! We get it, you're happy!
[16:14] Riii
    Who are these people?
[16:15] Sharon
    You've gotta be kidding!
[16:17] Gettsu
    Their moves were so random.
[16:23] Jonathan
    I'm sorry. I underestimated them.
[16:26] Coach
    They're new, so you lacked data. That's all.
[16:29] Coach
    We'll beat the two remaining teams.
[16:33] Jonathan
    Yes, sir.
[16:35] Shun
    We won.
[16:37] Sota
    Thank goodness!
[16:38] Sota
    I can pay the shop's debts!
[16:41] Nozomi
    Not yet!
[16:42] Nozomi
    We still aren't the champs.
[16:44] Akito
    But we beat our toughest opponent!
[16:46] Akito
    The rest of the league
    matches'll be easy-peasy!
[16:48] Nozomi
    Stop it!
[16:50] Nozomi
    You're going to jinx us.
[16:52] Shun
    Yeah, I guess.
[16:53] Mutsuki
    Wow, you're good.
[16:58] Shun
    Rox-san?
[16:59] Mutsuki
    Call me Mutsuki.
[17:01] Mutsuki
    Naito Mutsuki.
[17:02] Mutsuki
    That's my real name.
[17:04] Mutsuki
    "Shun" is yours, right?
[17:07] Mutsuki
    So I thought I should give you mine too,
[17:10] Mutsuki
    Tokinoya-kun.
[17:12] Shun
    How did you...
[17:13] Mutsuki
    You're going to get even better.
[17:18] All
    Cheers!
[17:20] Akito
    Man, I can't believe we swept our matches!
[17:23] Shun
    And took the top seed in Block A.
[17:25] Yu
    That doesn't mean we've got a free ride.
[17:27] Yu
    Sleeping Owl got Block A's second seed.
[17:31] Yu
    It's very likely we'll have to face them
     again in tomorrow's knockouts.
[17:34] Ryusei
    No worries.
[17:36] Ryusei
    We beat them once already.
[17:37] Akito
    Easy win, easy win!
[17:38] Nozomi
    Stop trying to jinx us like that!
[17:44] Sota
    I have to talk to you all about something.
[17:48] Sota
    Would you like to keep playing for me?
[17:54] Sota
    They're creating a new pro league.
[17:57] Sota
    It's a chance for brand-new teams to get in.
[17:59] Nozomi
    You're jumping the gun, just like always.
[18:03] Nozomi
    Save it for after you get the shop on its feet.
[18:06] Sota
    I know, but... they're
    not going to wait for that.
[18:10] Akito
    I'm down for it.
[18:13] Akito
    My goal from the start was to go pro.
[18:15] Akito
    I gotta be down for it!
[18:17] Yu
    So am I.
[18:18] Yu
    I don't care as much about compensation.
[18:20] Yu
    I just want to play professional matches.
[18:23] Ryusei
    Far be it for me to go against this flow!
[18:30] Nozomi
    It's okay.
[18:31] Nozomi
    You don't have to force yourself.
[18:33] Shun
    Nozo-nee...
[18:34] Nozomi
    Shun-chan, you should decide
    whatever's best for you.
[18:40] Akito
    No way, Shun. You gotta join in.
[18:43] Nozomi
    Akito!
[18:44] Akito
    As a pro, you'll get pay and prize money.
[18:47] Akito
    If you hit the top, you can make even more.
[18:51] Akito
    I think you know what that means.
[18:56] Shun
    I'm back.
[18:58] Satomi
    Welcome home.
[18:59] Satomi
    Are you here for the night?
[19:01] Shun
    Yeah.
[19:02] Shun
    I start in the afternoon tomorrow.
[19:03] Satomi
    On a Sunday? That seems hard.
[19:05] Satomi
    Do you need dinner?
[19:06] Shun
    I ate already.
[19:08] Satomi
    Oh. Can I make you some coffee?
[19:10] Shun
    Please.
[19:11] Mio
    Welcome home!
[19:13] Shun
    Thanks.
[19:14] Mio
    Congrats, Big Brother!
[19:17] Mio
    You made it to the semifinals, right?
[19:20] Shun
    You watched that, Mio?
[19:22] Mio
    Of course I did! You were in it.
[19:25] Satomi
    What are we talking about?
[19:28] Mio
    Shun won in his game tournament!
[19:31] Satomi
    Game?
[19:34] Satomi
    Shun, are you playing games?
[19:36] Shun
    Well, the shop was shorthanded
    and needed help...
[19:40] Satomi
    I see.
[19:41] Mio
    He was so good!
[19:44] Mio
    The finals are tomorrow, right?
[19:46] Shun
    Y-Yeah...
[19:47] Mio
    And you beat the favorites
     first thing, didn't you?
[19:51] Mio
    I was so impressed by your turnaround!
[19:54] Shun
    Y-Yeah... I guess.
[19:56] Satomi
    Shun.
[19:59] Satomi
    Will you be out late tomorrow too?
[20:01] Shun
    Yeah, probably.
[20:03] Satomi
    Will you need dinner?
[20:05] Shun
    Probably not.
[20:06] Satomi
    Okay. Be careful.
[20:08] Shun
    Okay.
[20:10] Mio
    Hey, Big Brother!
[20:12] Mio
    In today's match—
[20:14] Satomi
    Turn it off.
[20:17] Satomi
    Turn it off.
[20:25] Satomi
    Mio, would you like sugar?
[20:32] Mio
    Three lumps.
[20:34] Shun
    You'll put on weight.
[20:37] Mio
    Fine.
[20:38] Mio
    I'll get so heavy, you can't pick me up.
[20:41] Shun
    Sure, put on weight.
[20:42] Shun
    I'll carry you no matter how heavy you get.
[20:44] Mio
    Mom, give me seven lumps!
[20:47] Satomi
    That's enough.
[20:49] Satomi
    Shun, take your bath once you're finished.
[20:51] Shun
    No thanks. I'm tired.
[20:54] Shun
    I don't need a bath.
[20:55] Satomi
    No!
[20:55] Mio
    Take one!
[20:58] Shun
    Fine.
[21:33] Mutsuki
    I knew it.
[21:36] Mutsuki
    You're exactly like me,
[21:40] Mutsuki
    Tokinoya-kun.
