    Hey!
[00:50] Haiji
    You like running?

    Do you like running?

[03:04] Haiji
    His nickname is Shindo.
[03:06] Shindo

[03:09] Shindo

    Like me, he's a fourth-year.

[03:20] Shindo
    He's the king of trivia.
     Self-proclaimed, that is.
SIGN    204 Do Not Enter
[03:33] Prince
    Don't touch that!
[03:39] Prince
    It's all exquisitely balanced.
[03:41] Prince
    I can't be held responsible
    for anything that happens.
[03:43] Haiji
    You heard him.
[03:45] Haiji
    That's Kashiwazaki Akane of room 204.
[03:48] Haiji
    He's a second-year literature student.

    He's a nicotine addict!
[04:04] Haiji
    He's a third-year science
    and engineering student.
[04:06] Yuki
    How many times do I have to say it?
[04:06] Haiji
    He was a year above me when I first met him,
[04:08] Haiji
    but now he's a year behind me.
[04:09] Yuki
    It stinks! It really, really stinks!
[04:11] Nico
    Shut up. You're just too high-strung.
SIGN    102
[04:15] Yuki
    If I sue, there's a
    100 percent chance I'll win.
[04:18] Haiji
    This is Iwakura Yukihiko from room 102.
[04:21] Haiji
    We call him Yuki.
[04:22] Yuki
    Are you listening, Nico-chan Senpai?
[04:22] Haiji
    He's a fourth-year law student
    who passed the bar on his first try.
[04:27] Yuki
    You're smoking another?
[04:30] Haiji
    This is the landlord, Mr. Tazaki.
[04:38] Haiji
    This is Musa Kamara, a foreign student.
[04:40] Haiji
    He's in room 203.
[04:42] Haiji
    He's a second-year science
    and engineering student.
[04:43] Musa
    Nice to meet you.

    I'm in room 101.
[04:59] Kakeru
    He—
[05:00] Haiji
    Take your time.
[05:18] Kakeru
    What am I doing?
SIGN    The 10th Man
[05:27] Tazaki
    Where did you find him?
[05:29] Haiji
    Kurahara Kakeru.
[05:31] Haiji
    He's a first-year.
[05:33] Tazaki
    Kurahara?
[05:36] Tazaki
    I've heard that name before.
[05:39] Haiji
    Coach...
[05:40] Tazaki
    Huh?
[05:42] Haiji
    That's ten.
[05:47] Tazaki
    You win.
[05:48] Tazaki
    Fine, then. Do what you want.
[05:58] Nico
    Come on! You should listen
    to your department's seniors!
[06:03] Nico
    Well? Huh?
[06:05] Joji
    Keep it down. This place is tiny.
[06:08] King
    Quit whining. You guys have the biggest room.
[06:11] Jota
    What?
[06:12] Jota
    There's two of us in one room.
[06:15] Nico
    I can't hear you. What was that?
[06:17] Prince
    But I was about to finish.
[06:19] Yuki
    Newbie, eat something.
[06:23] Shindo
    This is your welcoming party.
[06:25] Yuki
    Since Haiji made it, it's all country cooking.
[06:30] Shindo
    Where are you from?
[06:32] Shindo
    I'm from Yamagata.
[06:34] Kakeru
    Uh...
[06:36] Shindo
    Oh, you don't have to tell us.
[06:38] Musa
    I'm from Tanzania.
[06:40] Musa
    Have you heard of Tanzania?
[06:43] Kakeru
    Africa?
[06:44] Musa
    Yeah. Ever been there?
[06:47] Kakeru
    No.
[06:49] Shindo
    Most people haven't.
[06:50] Shindo
    Musa's a government-sponsored
     exchange student.
[06:53] Shindo
    He's smart.
[06:54] Shindo
    Isn't his Japanese incredible?
[06:55] Musa
    It's not that good...
[07:02] Haiji
    Don't, guys!
[07:03] Haiji
    You're too close!
[07:05] Both
    To being fully occupied!
[07:10] Nico
    A toast to our tenth resident!
[07:15] All
    Cheers!
[07:22] Nico
    That's good! It stings!
[07:22] Prince
    You should definitely read it.
[07:25] Prince
    It's no exaggeration to say it'll
    completely change your college life.
[07:29] Joji
    Really?
[07:30] Jota
    Let us borrow that comic, then.
[07:32] Prince
    Buy it yourself.
[07:34] King
    Why can't I wear my jacket?
[07:36] Shindo
    You'd stand out as the only one.
[07:39] King
    Do I really need a suit?
[07:41] Musa
    No one wears jeans when
     they're looking for a job.
[07:44] Shindo
    King, what did you do for your
    coming-of-age ceremony?
[07:47] King
    Huh? I didn't attend.
[07:49] Musa
    Did your high school uniform include a blazer?
[07:52] King
    You're not telling me to wear that, are you?
[07:55] Nico
    Here.
[07:57] Nico
    How'd you guys meet?
[07:58] Kakeru
    Huh?
[07:59] Nico
    You and Haiji.
[08:02] Haiji
    You spilled on yourself, Jota.
[08:05] Haiji
    Hold still.
[08:07] Haiji
    Stop laughing.
[08:07] Kakeru
    We ran into each other on the street.
[08:10] Nico
    Really?
[08:12] Yuki
    You're Haiji's long-awaited tenth man.
[08:16] Yuki
    We were worried about who'd show up.
[08:19] Nico
    We figured he'd bring someone ridiculous.
[08:23] Yuki
    I'm glad you seem decent.
[08:28] Jota
    What are you discussing with the newbie?
[08:31] Joji
    Let us join in.
[08:32] Nico
    What?
[08:33] Nico
    We're discussing how to tell you two apart.
[08:36] Both
    What?
[08:37] Jota
    Which one am I?
[08:39] Jota
    Who am I, newbie?
[08:41] Kakeru
    What?
[08:42] Yuki
    Get this question right,
    and you'll win a can of beer.
[08:46] Kakeru
    But I'm underage.
[08:48] King
    I know! Jota!
[08:50] Both
    Why'd you answer the question?
[08:52] King
    You think I wouldn't answer a quiz question?
[08:57] Musa
    What's this?
[08:59] Jota
    Why'd you have to find that, Shindo?
[09:02] Shindo
    I knew I felt a breeze.
[09:05] Shindo
    Haiji, they made a hole in the floor.
[09:09] Jota
    Hush! It's a secret!
[09:09] Musa
    It's only been ten days since they moved in.
[09:12] Haiji
    It's fine. Just cover it up with a magazine.
[09:16] Haiji
    Don't let the landlord find out.
[09:18] Jota
    All right!
[09:19] Jota
    Hey, wait! You can't use that issue!
[09:22] Jota
    I'm saving it forever!
[09:49] Jota
    You scared me.
[09:50] Nico
    What was that for?
[09:53] Haiji
    I know the party's in full swing,
    but lend me your ears.
[09:55] Haiji
    It's important.
[09:56] Nico
    Is it a girl?
[09:58] Nico
    You finally got a girlfriend?
[10:00] Yuki
    We're all ears, Haiji.
[10:02] Haiji
    It's not that.
[10:08] Haiji
    Since Kurahara moved in,
    there are finally ten of us.
[10:12] Kakeru
    What? I haven't decided to move in yet.
[10:14] Nico
    What?
[10:15] Haiji
    There are exactly ten of us.
[10:17] Yuki
    You've been saying that ever
    since the twins moved in.
[10:20] Shindo
    "Just one more, just one more..."
[10:22] Nico
    Those cursed words.
[10:25] Musa
    You must be glad we filled
    the last room surprisingly quickly.
[10:28] Haiji
    Yeah. It's not enough to just think about it.
[10:32] Haiji
    You should always state your wishes out loud.
[10:34] Haiji
    You've got to seize your own destiny.
[10:37] Nico
    I don't know what you're talking about,
[10:39] Nico
    but why don't we take a trip somewhere
    to celebrate reaching ten?
[10:43] Yuki
    Good idea.
[10:45] Nico
    We can stay at an inn and drink sake.
[10:48] King
    That's not any different from right now.
[10:52] Haiji
    Take a trip together... Sounds nice.
[10:55] Nico
    Right? Where should we go?
[10:57] Haiji
    I know the perfect place.
[11:00] Yuki
    Where?
[11:02] Haiji
    Hakone.
[11:06] King
    Well, yeah, I guess.
[11:08] Shindo
    They've got hot springs,
    and it's easy to get there.
[11:11] Yuki
    Nice idea, Haiji.
[11:13] Yuki
    Should we take the train or rent a car?
[11:15] Haiji
    We won't take a vehicle.
[11:17] Haiji
    We'll use our legs to get around.
[11:19] Yuki
    Huh? What?
[11:21] Haiji
    Let's aim for the top together.
[11:25] Haiji
    Everyone's seen it at least once on
    New Year's while eating rice-cake soup.
[11:34] Haiji
    Let's run it together.
[11:37] Haiji
    The Hakone Ekiden.
[11:51] (Flashback) Bath Man
    You still only get in for a second, Haiji.
[11:55] (Flashback) Haiji
    It's been three years,
    but I still can't get used to the heat.
[12:00] (Flashback) Bath Man
    So you're a fourth-year now, huh?
[12:03] (Flashback) Bath Man
    Time flies.
[12:05] (Flashback) Bath Man
    How's the Chikusei-so?
[12:08] (Flashback) Haiji
    What do you mean?
[12:09] (Flashback) Bath Man
    Isn't it obvious?
[12:11] (Flashback) Bath Man
    "Just one more."
[12:12] (Flashback) Bath Man
    Your first and final chance
    must've arrived, right?
[12:15] (Flashback) Haiji
    Not yet.
[12:19] (Flashback) Bath Man
    Well, the new students will be coming soon.
[12:22] (Flashback) Bath Man
    I'm sure you'll find someone.
SIGN    Public Bath
[12:38] (Flashback) Bath Man
    Your first and final chance must've arrived, right?
[12:44] (Flashback) Haiji
    Just one more.
[12:50] (Flashback) Man
    Hey, wait!
[13:03] (Flashback) Man
    Wait!
[13:11] (Flashback) Man
    Wait!
[13:13] (Flashback) Man
    Thief!
[13:16] (Flashback) Man
    Someone help...
[13:37] (Flashback) Haiji
    Hey!
[13:39] (Flashback) Haiji
    You like running?
[13:42] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Huh?
[13:43] (Flashback) Haiji
    Do you like running?
[13:46] (Flashback) Kakeru
    What?
[13:56] (Flashback) Haiji
    Don't suddenly stop like that.
[13:58] (Flashback) Haiji
    Let's have a chat.
[14:00] (Flashback) Kakeru
    What?
[14:07] (Flashback) Haiji
    Why did you shoplift?
SIGN    Tea
[14:17] (Flashback) Haiji
    I won't call the cops. I promise.
[14:20] (Flashback) Haiji
    I just want to know who you are.
[14:24] (Flashback) Haiji
    I'm Kiyose Haiji, a fourth-year
     literature student at Kansei University.
[14:28] (Flashback) Haiji
    Who are you?
[14:32] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Kurahara Kakeru.
[14:34] (Flashback) Haiji
    Kurahara...
[14:36] (Flashback) Haiji
    Where's your home? Do you live around here?
[14:39] (Flashback) Kakeru
    No, uh... I'm at Kansei University.
[14:43] (Flashback) Haiji
    You're a Kansei University student?
[14:45] (Flashback) Haiji
    Which department?
[14:46] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Seriously, I—
[14:47] (Flashback) Haiji
    I definitely can't ignore you
    if you're an underclassman!
[14:49] (Flashback) Haiji
    Which department are you in?
[14:51] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Sociology.
[14:52] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Can I go now?
[14:55] (Flashback) Haiji
    Wait.
[14:57] (Flashback) Kakeru
    What?
[14:58] (Flashback) Haiji
    Are you broke? What about your allowance?
[15:02] (Flashback) Kakeru
    I lost my entire apartment
    deposit at a mah-jong parlor.
[15:05] (Flashback) Haiji
    Come to my place.
[15:07] (Flashback) Kakeru
    What?
[15:08] (Flashback) Haiji
    I'll show you the apartment where I live.
[15:10] (Flashback) Haiji
    There's an empty room.
[15:12] (Flashback) Kakeru
    But I don't have any money.
[15:14] (Flashback) Haiji
    You can pay when you can.
[15:16] (Flashback) Haiji
    Trust me. I'll make it work.
[15:20] (Flashback) Haiji
    We'll start with the convenience store.
[15:23] (Flashback) Haiji
    Let's go apologize.
[15:31] (Flashback) Haiji
    This is it.
[15:32] (Flashback) Haiji
    The Chikusei-so. We call it Aotake.
[15:36] (Flashback) Haiji
    That's the landlord's house.
    We'll go see him later.
SIGN    103
[15:50] (Flashback) Haiji
    Room 103. This is your room.
[15:53] (Flashback) Haiji
    There's no curfew.
[15:55] (Flashback) Haiji
    I'll get you a futon tomorrow, so you'll
    have to make do with my blanket tonight.
[16:06] (Flashback) Haiji
    I'll introduce you to the guys.
[16:24] (Flashback) Haiji
    Let's run it together.
[16:26] (Flashback) Haiji
    The Hakone Ekiden.
[16:33] Shindo
    But, uh... what?
[16:36] Musa
    What are you talking about?
SIGN    Chikusei-so
[16:44] Jota
    That's the sign out front.
SIGN    Kansei University Track and Field Club
SIGN    Kansei University
[16:49] Joji
    "Kansei University Track and Field Club...
SIGN    Track and Field Club
SIGN    Training Camp
[16:54] Joji
    ...Training Camp?!"
[16:56] Yuki
    What?!
[16:57] Prince
    When did you add that?
[16:59] Haiji
    Does this degradation look recent to you?
[17:03] Musa
    It was so dirty, we couldn't read it.
[17:06] Nico
    Hold on, Haiji.
[17:07] Yuki
    The Ekiden?
[17:08] Joji
    The marathon?
[17:10] Jota
    Isn't it a relay race?
[17:12] Haiji
    This is the Kansei University Track
    and Field Club member dorm.
[17:15] Haiji
    In other words,
[17:16] Haiji
    you're now members of the
    Kansei University Track and Field Club.
[17:24] All
    What?!
[17:29] King
    I never signed up for that!
[17:33] Haiji
    Moving in here signs you up for the club.
[17:36] Haiji
    Didn't you find it strange
    that in this day and age
[17:38] Haiji
    the rent's 30,000 yen, and we
     serve breakfast and dinner?
[17:41] Shindo
    Isn't this a scam?
[17:44] Yuki
    How did you not know about this?
[17:46] Nico
    What?
[17:46] Yuki
    Haven't you been living here longer than Haiji?
[17:49] Nico
    But the old man never told me anything.
[17:54] Yuki
    I can't believe my first job after passing
    the bar will be my own civil trial.
[17:59] Haiji
    Don't bother trying to sue me.
[18:01] Haiji
    Your rental application
    is your club application.
[18:04] Kakeru
    Are we registered?
[18:07] Kakeru
    Are we registered with the
    Inter-University Athletic Union of Kanto?
[18:11] Haiji
    Of course we are.
[18:13] Kakeru
    Who's the coach?
[18:15] Haiji
    Our landlord, Tazaki Genichiro.
[18:17] All
    What?!
[18:18] All
    What?
[18:19] All
    The old man?
[18:20] All
    Seriously?
[18:21] Joji
    But he's so decrepit.
[18:23] Haiji
    Don't be rude.
[18:24] Haiji
    The landlord was known as the treasure
    of the Japan Association of Athletics.
[18:28] Haiji
    By the time Tsuburaya Kokichi wrote
    his food-based suicide note and died,
[18:32] Haiji
    the landlord was already considered
    Kansei University's great coach.
[18:38] Yuki
    There's no trace of his incredible nature left.
[18:41] Jota
    You sure know a lot about him, newbie.
[18:43] Joji
    What's the Inter-University Athletic...
[18:46] Prince
    I see.
[18:47] Prince
    He must mean the
    Kanto Gogakuren from Otokojuku.
[18:51] Prince
    With over a thousand members,
    they're led by Date Omito.
[18:55] Shindo
    I don't think that's right.
[18:56] Kakeru
    We can't.
[19:00] Kakeru
    Not Hakone.
[19:01] Kakeru
    There's no way.
[19:08] Haiji
    No one knows that for sure.
[19:53] Haiji
    Hey.
[19:58] Haiji
    Do you run every day?
[20:02] Haiji
    So do I, while taking Nira for his walk.
[20:05] Kakeru
    For your health?
[20:09] Haiji
    No.
[20:11] Haiji
    Before you ask, I'll tell you.
[20:14] Haiji
    I injured it in high school.
[20:16] Haiji
    I'm almost back at full speed.
[20:18] Haiji
    In six months, I'll be
     able to match your pace.
[20:23] Kakeru
    What are you talking about?
[20:27] Haiji
    I'm serious.
[20:32] Haiji
    I'm going to run in the Hakone Ekiden.
[20:35] Haiji
    Starting today, I'm going
    to win over all the guys.
[20:41] Haiji
    That includes you,
[20:43] Haiji
    Sendai Josei High School graduate
[20:45] Haiji
    Kurahara Kakeru.

    Not Hakone.
[02:24] Kakeru
    There's no way.
[02:27] Haiji
    No one knows that for sure.
[02:30] Kakeru
    I know.
[02:32] Kakeru
    The top track and field teams
    train every day for years,
[02:38] Kakeru
    but only a handful of them even qualify.
[02:42] Kakeru
    That's the kind of race it is.

    You know a lot about Hakone Ekiden?
[02:50] Haiji
    Don't worry.
[02:52] Haiji
    Dreams do come true if you try.
[02:56] Haiji
    Nico-chan Senpai has
    track and field experience.
[02:59] Yuki
    What?
[03:00] Haiji
    Yuki made it to a prefectural
    kendo tournament with his team.
[03:03] Haiji
    The twins and King played soccer
    for three years in high school.
[03:08] Haiji
    Shindo used to walk ten kilometers through
    the mountains to get to school and back everyday.
[03:13] King
    That's not a sport.
[03:16] Haiji
    And Musa has a hidden talent.
[03:19] Musa
    It's prejudiced to think
    black people are fast runners.
[03:23] Haiji
    I confirmed in the bath
     that you've got good muscles.
[03:27] Musa
    That's why you're always staring at me?
[03:29] Haiji
    Then there's Kurahara.
[03:31] Haiji
    I want you guys to see how he runs.
[03:35] Prince
    Excuse me, but I wasn't included just now.
[03:40] Prince
    In other words, I don't have to run—
[03:42] Haiji
    We finally have ten.
[03:44] Yuki
    Apparently, you're included.
[04:10] Kakeru
    I'm not going to run with you guys.

[05:27] Yuki
    No one's going along with Haiji's plan, right?
[05:32] Nico
    That thing he mentioned yesterday? Yeah, right.
[05:35] King
    There's no way. Absolutely not.
[05:37] Purple
    Oh, really? Good.
[05:40] Blue
    I was going to run away
    if you guys said you'd do it.
[05:45] Shindo
    It's too sudden.
[05:48] Yuki
    It's a scam.
[05:49] Nico
    What did Musa say?
[05:52] Shindo
    Between school and work, he's too busy.
[05:54] King
    So everyone's against it.
[05:57] King
    Got it, newbie?
[06:01] Prince
    But...
[06:02] Prince
    I doubt he'd just back down.
[06:06] Prince
    These are the most luxurious dishes
    we've been served all month.
[06:12] Yuki
    He's domesticated us, hasn't he?
[06:19] Blue
    I know, Kakeru. We're going to school today.
[06:22] Blue

[06:22] Kakeru
    Huh?

    Joji, they've got a soccer club.

    Yeah, there's about five.
[06:40] Purple

[06:43] Kakeru
    You're going to keep playing soccer?
[06:45] Blue
    Huh?
[06:46] Blue
    Well, you heard what Haiji said.
[06:50] Purple
    That makes it harder to play.
[06:53] Kakeru
    Who cares if you want to play soccer?
[06:55] Blue
    It's not that we want to play soccer.
[06:58] Purple
    The problem is the girls.
[07:00] Kakeru
    What?
[07:01] Purple

    In that case, write your name—

    You seem energetic.
[07:24] Prince
    Could you not stand there?
[07:27] Haiji
    It won't be easy for you to pack,
    so I thought I'd tell you first.
[07:34] Prince
    Pack?
[07:35] Haiji
    Apparently, you can't stay at Aotake
    if you're not on the track and field team.
[07:41] Haiji
    In other words, if you refuse
    to be on the team, you have to move—
[07:46] Prince
    You're kicking me out?
[07:48] Haiji
    No, no. Careful how you phrase it.
[07:51] Haiji
    I'm just saying you can't
    live there if you don't ru—
[07:54] Prince
    You're kicking me out!
[07:56] Haiji
    I guess you could say that.
[07:57] Haiji
    It'll cost a fortune to move all that stuff.

[04:42] Haiji
    What's wrong? Breakfast is waiting.
[04:45] Prince
    I'm going back as a butterfly.
[04:48] Haiji
    What are you talking about?
    You're not making any sense.
[04:53] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Hey, look.
[04:55] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Huh?
[04:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's Kakeru.
[04:58] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Is he ever going to stop running?
[05:06] Kakeru
    Your body gets cold if you just wait.
[05:09] Haiji
    Yeah.
[05:14] Kakeru
    Do you understand now
    just how stupid your idea is?
[05:19] Kakeru
    They just ran a mere five kilometers.
[05:22] Kakeru
    Every section of the Hakone
    Ekiden is at least 20 kilometers.
[05:27] Kakeru
    That's more than quadruple.
[05:28] Kakeru
    We'll have to race that distance against
    runners who have endured intense training.
[05:38] Kakeru
    We could practice for
    ten years and still be behind.
[05:44] King
    Just how insane is his body?
[05:47] Haiji
    He's not wrong.
[05:50] Haiji
    Don't worry. It won't take ten years.
[05:53] Haiji
    After all, there's less than
    ten months until the race.
SIGN    A Single Flower
[06:07] Haiji
    At universities that participate
    in the Hakone Ekiden,
[06:10] Haiji
    everyone runs 5,000 meters
    in less than about 14:30 minutes.
[06:15] Haiji
    We'll consider that one of our goals.
[06:18] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I have no idea what that looks like.
[06:21] Yuki
    The simple calculation is less
    than three minutes per kilometer.
[06:24] King
    What?!
[06:26] King
    One kilometer in the time
    it takes to prepare cup noodles?
[06:29] Prince
    That makes it harder to understand.
[06:32] Musa
    He means it's inhumanly fast.
[06:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I bet there are lots of guys like
    that where you're from, Musa.
[06:40] Musa
    More prejudice.
[06:42] Shindo
    My high school's long distance
    race was only three kilometers.
[06:46] Nico
    Well, that's how it is.
[06:49] Nico
    Thanks for the food.
[06:50] Haiji
    You're right that it's not
    an easy speed to achieve.
[06:55] Haiji
    But if you don't know what
    your goals are, you can't aim for them.
[06:58] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Knowing's not enough.
[07:01] Haiji
    If you do the required training, it's different.
[07:05] Haiji
    We'll limit our focus to Hakone.
[07:08] Haiji
    That dramatically improves our chances.
[07:11] Kakeru
    On what basis?
[07:13] Kakeru
    On what basis are you making those claims?
[07:18] Haiji
    You don't want breakfast?
[07:21] Kakeru
    I don't want to owe any favors.
SIGN    Day 2
[07:41] Shindo
    They ran.
[07:42] Haiji
    I'm going to wake them.
[07:44] Nico
    Yuki never came home.
[07:46] Haiji
    Huh?
[07:47] Nico
    He went clubbing as usual.
[07:51] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Clubbing sounds nice.
[07:53] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I bet there are lots of cute girls.
[07:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We'll have to ask him to take us with him.
[07:58] Haiji
    Give me a minute.
[08:01] Shindo
    Huh? Hey!
[08:03] Haiji
    Kurahara!
[08:33] Hanako
    Whoa!
[08:36] Kakeru
    Huh?
[08:47] Hanako
    Whoa...
[08:48] Hanako
    Haven't done that since grade school.
[08:53] Hanako
    Are you a Kansei Uni student?
[08:57] Kakeru
    Yeah.
[08:58] Hanako
    On the Kansei Uni track and field team?
[09:00] Kakeru
    Uh...
[09:02] Hanako
    Haiji.
[09:04] Hanako
    Are you familiar with Kiyose Haiji?
[09:06] Kakeru
    Huh?
[09:31] Hanako
    Hey!
[09:34] Haiji
    Hey.
[09:35] Hanako
    Haiji!
[09:37] Haiji
    What about school?
[09:39] Hanako
    After this.
[09:40] Hanako
    I came first thing, but no one was here.
[09:43] Haiji
    We're still slow.
[09:45] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Who is that?
[09:47] Hanako
    I asked him if he was
    on the track and field team.
[09:50] Hanako
    I didn't see anyone else who could be.
[09:53] Hanako
    I was right.
[09:54] Kakeru
    I couldn't ignore her.
[10:03] Musa
    It's the Yaokatsu girl.
[10:05] Shindo
    What?
[10:05] Musa
    Yaokatsu. She's the daughter of the
    vegetable vendor in the shopping center.
[10:09] King
    What? Are they dating?
[10:11] Musa
    I doubt it.
[10:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    A high school girl's a little too young.
[10:17] Haiji
    Sorry. Let's get back to it.
[10:20] Hanako
    Guys.
[10:22] Hanako
    Practice hard.
[10:26] All
    We will!
[10:40] Girl
    Oh, wow! Then your future is secure.
[10:42] Girl
    Really? I'll have to call you
    for help if I'm ever on trial.
[10:46] Yuki
    I'd totally be down.
[10:48] Girl
    You might be on trial?
[10:50] Girl
    You never know.
[10:52] Yuki
    Can I get your number, then?
[10:55] Girl
    It'd be hilarious if this were a scam.
[10:58] Yuki
    Of course it isn't.
[11:00] Haiji
    Then maybe I'll get your number, too.
[11:02] Yuki
    Huh?
[11:08] Yuki
    Are you crazy?!
[11:11] Haiji
    What?!
[11:13] Haiji
    Sorry. My ears.
[11:14] Haiji
    It's amazing. I don't know how
    you can stay in there for so long.
[11:18] Yuki
    You're wasting your time!
[11:19] Haiji
    What?
[11:20] Yuki
    You're wasting your time!
[11:22] Yuki
    I don't have any reason to run
    or anything to gain from it!
[11:25] Yuki
    I don't need to create memories
    or network with you guys!
[11:29] Yuki
    This year of freedom
    is my well-deserved reward!
[11:34] Yuki
    I deserve to savor this vacation from life!
[11:37] Yuki
    You're wasting your time
    by trying to convince me!
[11:40] Yuki
    It's a total waste!
[11:42] Haiji
    I have a reason.
[11:44] Haiji
    I can't run in the Hakone
    Ekiden without ten members.
[11:48] Yuki
    I don't exist for your purposes!
[11:52] Haiji
    You're right.
[11:53] Haiji
    Naturally, I don't intend to unilaterally
    impose my will on you, Yuki.
[11:58] Yuki
    Then—
[11:59] Haiji
    I'll be back tomorrow.
[12:00] Yuki
    What?
[12:01] Haiji
    I'll come with you.
[12:03] Haiji
    After all, it's not fair to just
    make you accompany me.
[12:06] Haiji
    It's very important for teammates
    to respect and understand one another.
SIGN    Day 3
[12:22] Yuki
    Damn it. I'm finding a way out of this.
[12:25] Hanako
    Good morning.
[12:30] Haiji
    She's Yaokatsu's daughter,
     Katsuta Hanako.
[12:33] Haiji
    She'll be helping us sometimes.
[12:35] Hanako
    I've got school,
[12:36] Hanako
    so I can only help out early
    in the morning and late at night.
[12:40] Hanako
    It's nice to meet you.
[12:42] All
    Hey!
SIGN    Why
[12:58] Haiji
    It's a grand sight when everyone's here.
[13:04] Haiji
    Wait, Kurahara.
[13:06] Haiji
    I want to time everyone's finish. Help me.
[13:09] Kakeru
    Why me?
[13:16] Haiji
    There's no need to go crazy
    just because I'm timing you.
[13:21] Haiji
    I just want data to plan our practices.
[13:27] Haiji
    That's why I'm timing today's run.
[13:33] Haiji
    Don't hold back.
[13:34] Haiji
    I'll tell Hana to keep an eye out for that.
[13:57] Yuki
    Is that Haiji's girlfriend?
[14:00] Shindo
    The details are unclear.
[14:02] Yuki
    Being forced to run is already
    a human rights violation,
[14:06] Yuki
    and now he's showing off his girlfriend?
[14:08] Yuki
    Just how much does he intend to toy with us?
[14:11] Musa
    But it's clear now that King
    has some hidden potential.
[14:15] Yuki
    It's sad, though.
[14:17] Shindo
    Yeah, no matter how you look at it.
[14:29] Haiji
    Well? I wasn't lying, was I?
[14:32] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    About what?
[14:34] Haiji
    The girl.
[14:37] Haiji
    Work hard, and women will approach you.
[14:41] Haiji
    It only took three days.
[14:43] Haiji
    If you keep getting stronger
    and attract more attention...
[14:51] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Haiji, we're sorry.
[14:54] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We doubted you.
[14:57] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We thought you were tricking us.
[15:03] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    But it was true!
[15:06] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's only Yaokatsu's Hana so far,
    but as long as we work hard...
[15:11] Haiji
    That's right. Look!
[15:15] Haiji
    On the other side of the road
    are more women than you can count!
[15:21] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I'm so glad...
[15:23] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We decided to attend college...
[15:29] Yuki
    They've been fooled.
[15:30] Musa
    They sure have.
[15:32] Haiji
    Okay! Let's aim for the top!
[15:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What? What if we actually win?
[15:38] Haiji
    Well, my boy...
[15:40] Haiji
    You'll have your hands full.
[15:43] Haiji
    The mountains of Hakone
    are the steepest in the world!
[15:45] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I don't know what that means!
[15:48] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    But it's so intense!
[15:50] Haiji
    The mountains of Hakone are?
[15:51] Both
    The steepest in the world!

    That's good.
[17:02] Haiji
    It's effective, even if all
    you're doing is watching.
[17:05] Hanako
    I hope your dream comes true.
[17:07] Man
    It will.

    He's been waiting four years.
[17:11] Man
    You've got some good members, right?
[17:13] Man
    I heard she couldn't keep up on her bike.
[17:17] Hanako
    Yeah. He was amazing.
[17:20] Hanako
    Is Kurahara famous?
[17:23] Haiji
    I'm not sure.

    What? Qualifier?
[17:40] Yuki
    Joji, your bubbles.
[17:42] Nico
    Most people only know about the actual race.
[17:48] Shindo
    I just learned about it today.
[17:50] Shindo
    Of the twenty schools that participate
    in the Hakone Ekiden,
[17:53] Shindo
    aside from the ten seeded teams
    that qualify the previous year,
[17:56] Shindo
    they have to participate
    in a preliminary qualifier.
[18:01] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Really?
[18:04] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Then we'll race in that first.
[18:07] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    All right!
[18:09] Prince
    We still don't know if we'll be racing.
[18:13] Musa
    How many schools participate in the qualifier?
[18:16] Shindo
    About fifty.
[18:19] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    So only the top fifth qualify.
[18:21] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I bet we can do it if we try.
[18:23] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. Haiji said we're just getting started.
[18:26] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We can do it as long as we practice hard.
[18:30] Kakeru
    It's not that easy.
[18:34] Kakeru
    How hard do you think they
    practice to be in the top fifth?
[18:40] Kakeru
    And not everyone can
    participate in the qualifier.
[18:44] Kakeru
    Each athlete needs an official record
    of finishing 5,000 meters in less than 16:30
[18:48] Kakeru
    or 10,000 in 30:00.
[18:54] Prince
    Those are astronomical figures.
[18:56] Kakeru
    You have to achieve those
    records before the qualifier.
[19:01] Kakeru
    It doesn't matter if you have
    a couple of fast guys.
[19:04] Kakeru
    Everyone has to be running at a high level.
[19:08] Kakeru
    An amateur who can't even finish
    ten kilometers shouldn't be aiming for that.
[19:13] Kakeru
    Don't you understand how reckless he's being?
[19:19] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Kinda.
[19:21] Kakeru
    Then stop wasting your efforts.
[19:22] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Actually,
[19:24] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What's your deal, Kakeru?
[19:26] Kakeru
    What?
[19:28] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. What are you afraid of?
[19:30] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    You're fast.
[19:32] Kakeru
    What?!
[19:33] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe you're worried about us,
[19:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    but we're the ones doing the work, so who cares?
[19:39] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Run with us.
[19:47] Kakeru
    I don't work well with others.
[20:11] Haiji
    Where's Kurahara?
[20:12] Shindo
    He left already.
[20:14] Musa
    We only ran together for one day.
[20:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe he's mad.

    I can't give them money...
[06:51] Yuki
    Damn.
[06:53] Yuki
    As long as it was just Haiji who was
    excited about it, we could easily ignore it.
[06:57] Musa
    The twins are already on board.
[06:59] Musa
    If he convinces two more people,
    the yeses will have the majority.
[07:07] Prince
    See you at Aotake.
[07:14] Nerd
    By the way, did anyone buy the newest volume?
[07:16] Nerd
    
[07:17] (Flashback) Kosuke
    Who were they?
[07:21] (Flashback) Kosuke
    Those guys you were with.
[07:24] (Flashback) Kakeru
    It's none of your business.
[07:26] (Flashback) Kosuke
    Really? Well, I guess it doesn't matter.
[07:30] (Flashback) Kosuke
    Lucky you.
[07:33] (Flashback) Kosuke
    You made some friends.
SIGN    Everyone's Forest
[07:55] (Flashback) Coach
    You can do it, Kurahara!
[07:57] (Flashback) Coach
    It's the home stretch!
[07:59] (Flashback) Coach
    Go!
[08:03] (Flashback) Kosuke
    I didn't think you were still running.
[08:08] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Shut up.
[08:09] (Flashback) Clerk
    Wait! Thief!
[08:12] (Flashback) Kosuke
    Who were those guys you were with?
[08:17] Kakeru
    Why?
[08:18] Kakeru
    Why couldn't I say anything?
[08:20] Kakeru
    Why?
[08:22] (Flashback) Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What are you afraid of?
[08:24] (Flashback) Twin (Jota or Joji)
    You're fast.
[08:27] (Flashback) Kakeru
    I'm not scared!
[08:28] (Flashback) Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Who cares? Run with us.
[08:31] (Flashback) Kakeru
    I can't!
[08:34] (Flashback) Haiji
    Hey!
[08:35] (Flashback) Haiji
    You like running?
[08:38] (Flashback) Haiji
    Do you like running?
[08:41] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Don't...
[08:42] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Don't ask me that!
[08:59] Hanako
    Cold!
[09:01] Kakeru
    Sorry.
[09:03] Hanako
    Really, I'm fine.
[09:05] Hanako
    If anything, I'm glad you weren't hurt.
[09:08] Kakeru
    Don't.
[09:09] Hanako
    You're an important athlete.
[09:11] Hanako
    Haiji said God might exist, after all.
[09:16] Hanako
    After meeting you, he said,
    "We're no ordinary men."
[09:21] Hanako
    "We're destined for something great."
[09:23] Hanako
    He wouldn't stop talking
    about running together.
[09:30] Hanako
    There.
[09:31] Hanako
    The only thing I understand
    is that you're really, really fast.
[09:41] Kakeru
    That's all.
[09:44] Kakeru
    I can't do anything but run.
[09:49] Haiji
    Hey!
[10:05] Haiji
    I know. Wanna race?
[10:07] Kakeru
    Huh?
[10:08] Haiji
    Let's race to Aotake with Nira.
[10:11] Haiji
    Okay.
[10:13] Haiji
    Ready...
[10:14] Kakeru
    Why?
[10:16] Kakeru
    Why won't you leave me alone?
[10:18] Kakeru
    If you want to run, you can run by yourself.
[10:23] Kakeru
    Isn't that what it means to run?
[10:26] Kakeru
    I'm sorry, but you should give up on me.
[10:31] Kakeru
    I—
[10:32] Haiji
    Kurahara.
[10:35] Haiji
    Even though you run by yourself,
    you're not actually alone.
[10:43] Haiji
    You're always running with someone else.
[10:49] Kakeru
    I don't understand.
[10:55] Haiji
    I see.
[10:56] Haiji
    Okay, Nira.
[10:57] Haiji
    Ready... go!
[11:00] Haiji
    You're fast, Nira.
[11:07] Kakeru
    Someone?
[11:17] Musa
    You bought shoes?
[11:18] Shindo
    Yeah. Specialized shoes are better, apparently.
[11:23] Yuki
    Your attendance has been perfect.
[11:25] Nico
    So, what?
[11:27] Yuki
    Nothing.
[11:29] Haiji
    Everyone's here.
[11:32] Haiji
    Hana's waiting for us at the finish line today.
[11:34] King
    What?
SIGN    Feeble
[11:36] Haiji
    Hana will be timing us today.
[11:38] Haiji
    Do whatever it takes to finish.
[11:41] Haiji
    Kurahara, you, too.
[11:44] Haiji
    If we don't all get there,
[11:46] Haiji
    Hana will be waiting at the
    Tamagawa River forever and ever.
[11:52] Haiji
    I've told her we're starting at exactly six.
[11:56] Haiji
    30 seconds to go.
[11:57] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    All right!
[11:59] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We'll show you what we can do!
[12:01] Shindo
    Then you guys should get new shoes.
[12:03] Shindo
    Aren't those basketball shoes?
[12:05] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Huh? What do you mean?
[12:07] Shindo
    I'll take you someplace special sometime.
[12:10] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Why does that sound so indecent?
[12:13] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I can't take it!
[12:14] Musa
    See? He's trying to win them over.
[12:16] Yuki
    Calm down. The twins have
    always been on his side.
[12:20] Haiji
    Eight, seven, six,
[12:22] Nico
    Good grief.
[12:22] Haiji
    five, four, three, two, one.
[12:24] Prince
    What a waste of time.
[12:28] Haiji
    Go!
[12:37] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    How is he so fast?
[12:38] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's infuriating!
[12:39] Haiji
    Don't get thrown off by his pace!
[12:42] Haiji
    Same thing goes for races!
[12:43] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Got it!
[12:46] Haiji
    Prince, I'm extremely moved right now.
[12:49] Prince
    By what?
[12:51] Haiji
    In just one week, your pace
    has increased substantially.
[12:55] Haiji
    You have that much aptitude.
[13:04] Haiji
    Do it, and you'll understand.
[13:05] Haiji
    Never do it, and you'll never understand.
[13:08] Prince
    That's from "The Burning Pen"—
[13:09] Haiji
    Comics taught you
    everything that matters, right?
[13:18] Hanako
    Hey! Over here!
[13:20] Hanako
    Oh, wow! You're so fast!
[13:22] Old man
    Ah, to be young.
[13:25] Kakeru
    Please stop.
[13:27] Hanako
    Goal!
[13:29] Hanako
    Wow! 14:53.
[13:32] Hanako
    Five kilometers in 14:53?
[13:34] Hanako
    That's fast.
[13:36] Kosuke
    You holding back, Kurahara?
[13:39] Kosuke
    Five kilometers in 14:53?
[13:41] Kosuke
    That time would've been
    unthinkable for you in high school.
[13:45] Hanako
    Who are you?
[13:47] Kosuke
    I'm Tokyo Sport University
    first-year Sakaki Kosuke.
[13:51] Kosuke
    Who are you? The manager?
[13:53] Hanako
    I'm not the manager, but...
[13:56] Kakeru
    She's timing us. We're busy.
[13:59] Kosuke
    Timing you?
[14:01] Kosuke
    But no one's coming.
[14:03] Kosuke
    Oh, I get it. So that's how it is.
[14:06] Kosuke
    Even you lower your level when
    running with such low-level guys.
[14:13] Kosuke
    I finally understood after contacting the OBs.
[14:16] Kosuke
    They said you're attending Kansei University.
[14:19] Kosuke
    Do they even have a track and field team?
[14:22] Kosuke
    Is this some kind of friendly jogging club?
[14:24] Kakeru
    Just go!
[14:29] Kosuke
    You going to hit me again?
[14:32] Hanako
    What?
[14:34] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah!
[14:39] Shindo
    You really should get new shoes.
[14:42] Shindo
    It's way easier, Musa.
[14:45] Yuki
    Your time's improving.
[14:49] Nico
    So, what?
[14:51] King
    That's odd. Maybe it's because
    there was a headwind today.
[14:55] Hanako
    Then you'd all be running
    under the same circumstances.
[14:57] King
    Right.
[15:02] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Who's that guy?
[15:05] Haiji
    Look, Prince!
[15:06] Haiji
    Your friends are waiting for you!
    The heroes of Aotake!
[15:10] Haiji
    They're waiting for the warrior
    named Prince to return!
[15:15] Yuki
    Sounds like something Prince would enjoy.
[15:18] Musa
    Haiji's learning.
[15:20] Haiji
    That's right!
[15:21] Haiji
    Today, you'll reach an unknown
    territory you've never reached before!
[15:29] Haiji
    You're here!
[15:43] Hanako
    34:59:28.
[15:48] Haiji
    Hear that, Prince? 34 minutes.
[15:50] Haiji
    You broke the 35-minute wall. You did it.
[15:58] Kosuke
    What is this? A seniors marathon?
[16:01] Kosuke
    I can walk faster than that.
[16:08] Kosuke
    What?
[16:11] Haiji
    You know each other? Where are you from?
[16:14] Kosuke
    Excuse me, Coach. I'm—
[16:17] Haiji
    I'm not the coach.
[16:18] Haiji
    I'm a fourth-year. An athlete.
[16:20] Kosuke
    Excuse me. I know Kurahara.
[16:23] Kosuke
    He really helped me out a lot in high school.
[16:28] Haiji
    You're on the track and field team?
[16:29] Kosuke
    Yes, on Tokyo Sports Uni's.
[16:32] Haiji
    Tokyo Sports Uni...
[16:33] Haiji
    Then we'll see you at the track meet.
[16:36] Kosuke
    Track meet?
[16:37] Haiji
    The Tokyo Sports Uni track
    meet is at the end of the month.
[16:42] Kosuke
    Yes, but...
[16:43] Haiji
    Then we'll see you there.
[16:44] Nico
    Isn't that enough?
[16:47] Kosuke
    What? You're going to run at the track meet?
[16:51] Haiji
    Of course. We can't qualify
    without official records.
[16:55] Musa
    Haiji, stop!
[16:57] Kosuke
    Qualify?
[16:58] Yuki
    Don't!
[17:00] Haiji
    For the Hakone Ekiden.
[17:09] Kosuke
    What?
[17:11] Haiji
    To participate in the Hakone Ekiden
    qualifier, we need official records.
[17:15] Haiji
    So we'll run at the meet.
[17:17] Haiji
    All of us.
[17:20] Haiji
    Those ten guys are the Kansei
    University Hakone Ekiden team.
[17:26] Kosuke
    Hakone? Is he serious?
[17:30] Kosuke
    Are you making light of track and field? Huh?
[17:33] Haiji
    No.
[17:35] Kosuke
    I'm asking you, Kurahara!
[17:41] King
    What is that?
[17:44] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Don't worry.
[17:45] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    If anything happens...
[17:49] Hanako
    Whoa...
[17:50] Kosuke
    Say something.
[17:53] Kosuke
    Aren't you embarrassed to run at their level?
[17:56] Yuki
    Our level?
[18:00] Nico
    If anything, I find it invigorating.
[18:09] Prince
    This is why I hate them...
[18:13] Prince
    It's always about levels, winning and losing.
[18:16] Prince
    They can only describe things on that level.
[18:20] Shindo
    Prince?
[18:22] Prince
    I really hate running,
[18:25] Prince
    but more than that,
[18:27] Prince
    I hate people who criticize
    others for what they do!
[18:36] Prince
    I'm not sure if these people
    are my friends or not.
[18:39] Yuki
    Hey.
[18:41] Prince
    But at the very least,
[18:42] Prince
    they recognize me, my ideas, and my worth.
[18:50] Prince
    Among them, there is no high or low level.
[18:54] Prince
    The only thing that matters is who we are!
[19:00] Prince
    So I...
[19:05] Haiji
    Prince...
[19:07] Haiji
    You heard him.
[19:08] Yuki
    That was quick!
[19:13] Haiji
    Kakeru will get faster.
[19:15] Haiji
    Even faster than when you knew him.
[19:32] Kakeru
    Sakaki!
[19:39] Kakeru
    We'll meet again.
[19:48] Nico
    What was that? A declaration of war?
[19:51] Kakeru
    What?
[19:52] King
    Didn't you mean he'll pay for this?
[19:54] Kakeru
    No!
[19:56] Yuki
    You're the type to provoke
    people subconsciously.
[19:58] Kakeru
    What?!
[19:58] Musa
    You were cool, though.
[20:00] Musa
    You, Haiji, and Prince.
[20:03] Shindo
    We've got a goal for now.
[20:06] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah! Let's run in this track meet!
[20:08] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    You just watch us, damn it!
    Who cares if we're low level?
[20:13] Haiji
    Prince is right. You're you.
[20:16] Haiji
    Do what you want.
[20:18] Haiji
    So will I.
[20:21] Haiji
    That's why I'll run with you
    and the rest of the guys.
[20:33] Haiji
    Let's head back. Breakfast is waiting.
[20:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah!
[20:40] Haiji
    Can you walk?
[20:41] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Finally, food!
[20:43] Haiji
    This is the beginning of our adventure!

SIGN    4/29 Tokyo Sports Uni track meet!!
[06:03] Musa
    What is this track meet?
[06:06] Haiji
    Competitions take place
    in the spring and summer.
[06:09] Haiji
    University- or corporate-sponsored
    races are held practically every week.
[06:15] Haiji
    Track meets are one of them.
[06:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Why do we have to run in that?
[06:19] Kakeru
    I explained that the other day.
[06:23] Kakeru
    Not everyone gets to run.
[06:26] Kakeru
    You have to qualify for the qualifier.
[06:29] Kakeru
    You need an official record
    of 5,000 m in less than 16:30
[06:32] Kakeru
    or 10,000 m in less than 30:00.
[06:37] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Oh.
[06:38] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I only got that you were kinda mad.
[06:42] Nico
    You'd better learn to be a better speaker.
[06:45] Musa
    I see. In order to do that,
    we'll have to run in track meets.
[06:50] Haiji
    That's right.
SIGN    Kakeru 14:53:54 Joji 16:48:08 Jota 16:50:01 Shindo 18:52:23 Musa 19:01:36 Yuki 19:45:11 Nico-chan 19:50:03 King 20:01:06 Prince 34:59:28
[06:52] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    So that's why our goal is around 16 minutes.
[06:55] Yuki
    Looks like you're down to half your numbers.
[06:58] Prince
    It seems like it'd be faster
    to change the flow of time
[07:01] Prince
    than improve our running ability.
[07:03] Nico
    Could you extend my deadline, then?
[07:06] Haiji
    You're doing software development work again?
[07:12] Haiji
    Naturally, there will be more
    than just the one meet in April.
[07:16] Haiji
    We'll try multiple times in May and June.
[07:18] Haiji
    We just need to achieve
    our target time eventually.
[07:49] Haiji
    Not going to sleep?
[07:52] Kakeru
    Are we really running
    the Tokyo Sports Uni meet?
[07:57] Kakeru
    They're no match for them.
[08:01] Kakeru
    At least wait until May.
[08:02] Haiji
    What point is there in putting it off?
[08:06] Kakeru
    They'll just get hurt.
[08:08] Kakeru
    Why force them to face reality?
[08:11] Kakeru
    They're amateurs.
[08:14] Haiji
    Are you sure?
[08:15] Kakeru
    Huh?
[08:18] Haiji
    Are only the chosen allowed to participate?
[08:21] Haiji
    Is that what running is about?
[08:29] Kakeru
    We're talking about a competitive sport.
[08:33] Haiji
    You're right.
[08:36] Haiji
    But that's why we need to face reality.
[08:39] Haiji
    Otherwise, we can't even try.
[08:41] Haiji
    Hakone isn't a dream.
[08:45] Haiji
    It's reality.
[08:57] Yuki
    What?!
[08:59] Haiji
    I said we're meeting
    outside this evening at five.
[09:03] Yuki
    But we just got back from running!
[09:06] Haiji
    The morning jog is a warm-up.
[09:08] Haiji
    Starting today, we'll start holding
    proper practices in the evening.
[09:12] Haiji
    We're officially starting.
[09:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Are we done with class by then?
[09:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's probably fine for us to ditch.
[09:20] Musa
    Shindo.
[09:22] Musa
    Could you teach me about shoes later?
[09:25] Shindo
    Of course.
[09:26] Yuki
    This is crazy. You're crazy.
[09:29] Yuki
    You're acting like a track and field team!
[09:33] All
    But we are.
[09:36] Yuki
    Say something!
[09:39] Nico
    Huh? Oh...
[09:41] King
    I'll pass. I've got a seminar today.
[09:44] Haiji
    You can't reschedule?
[09:47] King
    Reschedule?
[09:48] King
    I'll have to reschedule my entire life, too.
[09:54] King
    Will you take responsibility for that?
[09:56] Nico
    I've rescheduled my life like crazy.
[10:05] Yuki
    What are these? Voodoo dolls?
[10:09] Nico
    My hands keep looking for cigarettes.
[10:12] Nico
    I made those while trying to distract myself.
[10:15] Yuki
    When did you stop smoking?
[10:18] Yuki
    Don't tell me it was the day
    Haiji brought up Hakone.
[10:22] Nico
    Of course not.
[10:24] Nico
    It's not easy to quit.
[10:27] Nico
    It hasn't been a week yet.
[10:28] Yuki
    That means you've quit for now!
[10:31] Nico
    Shut up.
[10:33] Nico
    You should be glad.
[10:34] Nico
    You used to complain every day.
[10:38] Yuki
    In other words...
[10:40] Yuki
    this means you're running, right?
[10:44] Yuki
    Despite staying up all night
    to work all the time,
[10:46] Yuki
    you're participating in our morning jogs
[10:49] Yuki
    because you want to run in the Hakone Ekiden.
[10:53] Nico
    I don't dislike running.
[10:55] Yuki
    Give me a break!
[10:58] Yuki
    If you join them...
[11:01] Nico
    But ability's a different story.
[11:04] Yuki
    Huh?
[11:06] Nico
    Don't worry. I'm not taking Haiji seriously.
[11:11] Nico
    I'm seriously doing it for my health.
[11:13] Nico
    It's a good opportunity.
[11:31] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What? Lucky!
[11:35] Musa
    Aren't they nice?
[11:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Will new shoes make us faster?
[11:38] Musa
    I'm sure they will.
[11:41] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    If we want to buy shoes,
    we'll have to go drinking less.
[11:44] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe we can do something short term.
[11:47] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    A job, huh?
[11:48] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I don't wanna work...
[11:50] Shindo
    I'm back.
[11:51] Both
    Hey.
[11:53] Musa
    Welcome home.
[11:53] Shindo
    Sorry. I'll get changed.
[11:55] Musa
    Third-years have seminars.
[11:58] Musa
    Must be hard.
[12:01] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Haiji is with Yuki and Nico-chan Senpai.
[12:05] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    King's not showing up, after all.
[12:08] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    He's been freaking out lately.
SIGN    202
[12:12] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe he's setting his sights too high.
[12:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Who wouldn't?
[12:17] Musa
    Prince is over there.
[12:21] Prince
    Between you and me, which
    of us do you think is truly free?
[12:31] Haiji
    We'll leave once Shindo gets here.
[12:33] Haiji
    Nira, you wanna come?
[12:36] Haiji
    And Prince.
SIGN    Feeble
[12:37] Prince
    Could you please not treat us
    like we're on the same level?
[12:54] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    This place is kinda dismal.
[12:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Even though we're the track team,
    we can't use the university's track.
[13:01] Haiji
    The university's track is used
    by all kinds of teams and clubs.
[13:05] Haiji
    It's all about the pecking order.
[13:07] Musa
    Haiji.
[13:08] Haiji
    Yes, Musa?
[13:09] Musa
    You said we'd be easing into practice.
[13:11] Musa
    Does that mean we'll be running slowly?
[13:15] Haiji
    That's right.
[13:16] Haiji
    If you suddenly start running,
    you'll hurt yourself.
[13:19] Haiji
    Before practice, we'll start
    with a one-hour run.
[13:21] All
    One hour?!
[13:23] Prince
    Haiji.
[13:24] Haiji
    Yes, Prince?
[13:25] Prince
    Isn't that just practice?
[13:28] Haiji
    Let's go.
[13:33] Prince
    That's what you call ignoring someone.
[13:36] Prince
    You're the only one who understands me.
[13:39] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Are you trying to descend to his level?
[13:47] Haiji
    We'll do a fixed-pace run.
[13:49] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What's a fixed-pace run?
[13:51] Haiji
    It means running at a constant pace.
[13:54] Haiji
    It's good for endurance training.
[13:58] Haiji
    Don't push yourselves too hard at first.
[13:59] Haiji
    Focus on completing the run.
[14:02] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah!
[14:04] Haiji
    There's no need to strain
    yourselves by running too fast.
[14:07] Haiji
    Focus on maintaining a pace
    you can run at for a long time.
[14:11] Haiji
    All right, first group.
[14:13] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah!
[14:16] Prince
    We're like a real team.
[14:21] Prince
    You can't be serious.
[14:23] Prince
    Right, Nira?
[14:34] Prince
    You're one of them, too?
[14:37] Yuki
    What's so great about it?
[14:40] Nico
    Huh?
[14:41] Yuki
    About running.
[14:43] Yuki
    I don't get it. I'm an amateur.
[14:51] Yuki
    As long as I don't,
    there's nothing I can do about it.
[14:56] Yuki
    Don't tell me I'll understand
    once I start running.
[15:03] Haiji
    Second group.
[15:09] Nico
    Everyone's different.
[15:14] Nico
    But in my case...
[15:16] Haiji
    Go!
[15:17] Yuki
    No fair!
[15:30] Haiji
    Are only the chosen allowed to participate?
[15:39] Haiji
    Is that what running is about?
[15:50] Haiji
    That's all for today.
[15:53] Haiji
    Tomorrow, we'll incorporate
    build-up runs. Keep that in mind.
[15:56] Yuki
    You're adding more?!
[15:57] Shindo
    Build-up runs?
[15:59] Haiji
    It means gradually increasing
    your pace to a sprint.
[16:04] Shindo
    What's the objective of that practice?
[16:06] Haiji
    Working your heart and lungs.
[16:09] Haiji
    There's no point unless
    you're having trouble breathing.
[16:12] Shindo
    I see.
[16:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Was Haiji smiling at the end?
[16:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Looked that way to me.
[16:19] Prince
    He's an ogre.
[16:21] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Huh?
[16:24] Prince
    An ogre doesn't understand how people feel.
[16:28] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Prince, have you lost even more weight?
[16:32] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe it's my imagination,
    but he looks semi-transparent to me.
[16:37] Prince
    I'm trying to become incorporeal.
[16:40] Prince
    It's the only way I can exist in this world.
[16:44] Haiji
    Stand up, Prince.
[16:46] Haiji
    We're jogging back to Aotake.
[16:49] Prince
    I'll explain the rest to you tonight.
[16:52] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    No, thanks.
[16:53] Yuki
    Despite everything, even
    Prince is going along with it.
[16:57] Nico
    So are you.
[16:59] Yuki
    You never told me your answer.
[17:02] Nico
    You're persistent.
[17:05] Yuki
    Yeah, but...
[17:09] Nico
    Well, when I'm running...
[17:12] Nico
    Only when I'm running, I feel clean.
[17:17] Nico
    Pure white.
[17:20] Nico
    I can leave all the stuff I'm carrying behind.
[17:24] Nico
    For just a moment, I feel perfectly clean.
[17:30] Yuki
    But I'm already clean.
[17:34] Nico
    You piss me off.
[17:36] Yuki
    What? That's the reason?
[17:38] Yuki
    That's the reason? Huh?

[18:21] Shindo
    How about after this?
[18:22] Musa
    You're going to keep running?
[18:24] Shindo
    Yeah. There's not much time before the meet.
[18:27] Shindo
    Besides, there's something I want to try.
[18:31] Shindo
    Is it okay if I go jogging tonight?
[18:34] Haiji
    Of course. Watch out for traffic.
[18:36] Shindo
    All right.
[18:38] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Me, too.
[18:39] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    If Joji's going, so will I.
[18:41] Musa
    I'll go, too.
[18:43] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Let's get changed.
[18:44] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah!
[18:45] Yuki
    I'll pass. I'm overworked.
[18:47] Nico
    Sorry, but I'm going to relax, too.
[18:51] Haiji
    They're becoming independent. That's good.
[18:55] Shindo
    Where's Prince?
[18:56] Haiji
    I forgot him in the yard.
[18:58] Shindo
    He'll catch a cold!
[19:00] Nico
    How about you? You're not gonna run?
[19:02] Kakeru
    Huh?
[19:03] Nico
    It's written all over your face
    that you haven't had your fill.
[19:09] Haiji
    Kakeru.
[19:11] Haiji
    Help me make dinner.
[19:14] Kakeru
    Haiji—
[19:15] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    King, you're home?
[19:18] King
    Just how much are you guys practicing?
[19:20] King
    You guys sure have
    a weird way of having fun.
[19:23] King
    I'm hungry. Where's dinner?
[19:26] Haiji
    Soon. What's up?
[19:28] Kakeru
    It's nothing.
[19:30] Haiji
    Okay.
[19:33] King
    You're lucky to have guys who want to run.
[19:36] Kakeru
    What?
[19:37] King
    I'm sure you have plenty of time.
[19:40] King
    Run as much as you want.
[19:42] King
    I'm taking a bath!
[19:51] All
    What?!
[19:53] Musa
    What? All of us?
[19:55] Haiji
    Of course.
[19:57] Haiji
    From now on, you're all forbidden from working.
[20:00] Haiji
    And get some running clothes.
[20:03] Haiji
    Prince's denim is out of the question.
[20:07] Prince
    I've never needed a track
    suit before in my life.
[20:12] Haiji
    You can't wear track suits, either.
[20:15] Haiji
    Make sure have towels
    and bring a change of clothes, too.
[20:18] Haiji
    Changing your clothes
    regularly is an important part
[20:20] Haiji
    of maintaining your physical condition.
[20:22] Haiji
    When you're practicing every day,
    you won't have time for anything else.
[20:26] Haiji
    You'll be able to save up more
    than enough off your allowances.
[20:29] Haiji
    And...
[20:31] King
    Hey!
[20:34] King
    I'm not doing nothing but practice every day.

    Let's go jogging again tonight.
[03:14] Joji
    Yeah, let's do it!
[03:16] Shindo
    Where should we run?
[03:18] Yuki
    Damn honor-roll students.
[03:21] Yuki
    Don't blame me if you burn yourselves
     out and can't run anymore.
[03:24] Jota
    You're worried about us?
[03:26] Musa
    Yuki, you should run with us.
[03:29] Yuki
    And why would I do such a thing?
[03:31] Yuki
    Absolutely not. I need my "me time."
[03:34] Shindo
    How about you, Nico-chan Senpai?
[03:36] Nico
    Huh? Morning and evening's plenty for me.
[03:39] Yuki
    That's right. Respect the elderly.
[03:41] Nico
    What?!
[03:42] Joji
    But if we don't do well at the track meet,
     we can't run in the Hakone Ekiden.
[03:47] Yuki
    As if you'll get to run in that, idiot.
[03:50] Yuki
    Hakone's a distant dream.

    Hana's here.
[04:06] Hanako
    What? I wanna go on a nighttime jog!
[04:08] Musa
    Would you like to run with us, Hana?
[04:11] Hanako
    What? I can't do that. I'll ride my bike.
[04:14] Jota
    I'm so hyped! We didn't have
     a girl manager in high school.
[04:18] Joji
    Yeah!
[04:19] Hanako
    What? Really?
[04:20] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah, totally!
[04:21] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah, yeah!
[04:23] King
    I don't have time. I'm heading home.
[04:26] Haiji
    Let's go together, then.
[04:32] Yuki
    He's completely closed himself off.
[04:37] Musa
    You mean King?
[04:38] Shindo
    Yeah.
[04:39] Joji
    Is it his job search?
[04:41] Jota
    What? But I thought the
     employment rate was rising.
[04:46] Yuki
    Maybe it is overall,
[04:49] Yuki
    but guys who just can't handle it
     aren't gonna do well.
[04:52] Jota
    Yikes.
[04:54] Shindo
    I'm worried about King,
[04:56] Shindo
    but we need to do something
     about the club budget.
[05:00] Joji
    We're officially recognized
     by the university, right?
[05:03] Shindo
    Yeah, but...
[05:05] Jota
    We can't even use the university track.
[05:10] Tazaki
    We don't have any money.
[05:12] Tazaki
    If we did, I'd do something
    about that run-down apartment.
[05:17] Haiji
    Of course. Excuse me.
[05:20] Tazaki
    Since you said you'd do it...
[05:23] Tazaki
    Since you said you'd do it, I'm allowing it,
[05:27] Tazaki
    but this world isn't just about
     who's fast and who's slow.
[05:32] Haiji
    Yes, sir.
[05:34] Tazaki
    Naturally, you need money as well.
[05:37] Tazaki
    And there's no guarantee your
     peers will acknowledge you.
[05:40] Haiji
    I know that.
[05:42] Tazaki
    That's also part of running.
[05:51] Nico
    Don't tell Haiji I'm working. He'll get mad at me.
[05:55] Nico
    I'm supposed to be older than him, though.
[06:00] Nico
    So, what do you want?

    What kind of person is Haiji?

    Yeah.

    What's he like? Exactly what the way he looks.

    How about as a runner?
[06:21] Nico
    I think Haiji was a good runner.
[06:24] Nico
    I've never seen him run all-out, though.
[06:27] Nico
    Apparently, he was told to stop for a while.
[06:31] Nico
    He must've wanted to run
     even though he couldn't.
[06:34] Nico
    His first year, when I told him
     I ran track in high school,
[06:38] Nico
    his eyes were glittering.
[06:40] Nico
    It was a pain.
[06:42] Nico
    I'd completely quit running.
[06:46] Nico
    It's been four years since then,
     and his eyes are still glittering.
[06:50] Nico
    Surprising, isn't it?
[06:52] Nico
    It's only gotten worse
     since you showed up.
[06:54] Kakeru
    Even with me on the team, we can't win.
[06:57] Nico
    I know.
[06:59] Nico
    I feel bad for Haiji, but I don't think
    we can make it to Hakone, either.
[07:03] Nico
    Well, it should become clear enough
    once we run in the track meet.
[07:09] Yuki
    Are you serious?!
SIGN    We're trying to make it to the Hakone Ekiden. The Kansei University Track and Field Team Fan Club is now recruiting!!
[07:13] Shindo
    As long as we're running, I thought
    we could advertise while doing it.
[07:16] Musa
    We're going to promote ourselves by
    wearing these to and from the track
[07:20] Musa
    and during our morning and nighttime jogs.
[07:23] Shindo
    We got enough for everyone.
     We hope you'll wear them.
[07:26] Joji
    Let's advertise!
[07:28] Musa
    Here you go. Here!
[07:33] Nico
    This isn't going to run when we sweat, is it?
[07:36] Jota
    I'm sure it'll be fine.
[07:37] Joji
    It's an oil-based ink.
[07:39] Shindo
    We want to form a fan club
[07:41] Shindo
    so we can create an environment
    where we can focus on training.
[07:45] Shindo
    We appreciate your cooperation.
[07:47] Yuki
    Damn honor-roll students.
[07:48] Musa
    Is that okay?
[07:50] Haiji
    Of course. No problems here.
[07:52] Yuki
    God, these are lame!
[07:53] Yuki
    What is this? They're so lame!
[07:56] Jota
    King, welcome home.
[07:58] Joji
    How'd it go? You land a job?
[08:04] Nico
    They won't have decided yet.
[08:07] King
    What are you guys doing?
     Is that for a school festival?
[08:09] Haiji
    Surprisingly, they're not bad. Look.
[08:18] Joji
    You're slow when it comes
     to everything but running.
[08:21] King
    Not bad. Good luck.
[08:23] Shindo
    What? But we have practice now.
[08:25] Musa
    Come with us, King.
[08:27] King
    Didn't I tell you? I've got my own shit to do.
[08:31] King
    I'm really busy right now.
[08:34] Haiji
    Forget about it.
[08:36] King
    What?
[08:37] Haiji
    Forget about it and run.
[08:38] Yuki
    Whoa, whoa.
[08:40] King
    Like escape from reality?
[08:42] Haiji
    Tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that...
[08:45] Haiji
    What you need to do won't ever change.
[08:47] Haiji
    Reality will always be there in front of you.
[08:50] Haiji
    So instead of running from it,
     why not try running with reality?
[08:56] King
    Will running help me get a job?
[08:59] Haiji
    I don't know.
[09:00] Haiji
    But standing still will make you anxious.
[09:03] Haiji
    I was like that once.
[09:11] King
    You're such a dreamer.
[09:15] King
    Haiji, why am I here?
[09:19] Haiji
    For us.
[09:23] King
    For you guys?
[09:25] Haiji
    Yeah. What's wrong with that?
[09:27] King
    It's my life!
[09:31] Yuki
    I know this guy says some crazy things,
[09:34] Yuki
    but you shouldn't freak out so much.
[09:37] Yuki
    It's only April. The battle's just begun.
[09:41] Joji
    Coming from Yuki...
[09:43] Jota
    Sounds like sarcasm.
[09:44] Yuki
    What?
[09:45] Yuki
    Generally speaking, you could
     start looking for a job now and—
[09:48] Nico
    Enough.
[09:49] Nico
    At least wear this.
[09:51] Nico
    We'll all suffer the punishment together.
[09:53] Shindo
    Punishment?
[09:54] Shindo
    How is this a punishment?
[09:56] Nico
    You can decide the rest for yourself.
[09:58] Nico
    Let's get this over with.

    Starting tomorrow, we'll start

[12:13] Shindo
    Huh? Where's King?
[12:15] Kakeru
    Dunno. I haven't seen

    It's nice to run through nature.
[12:24] Jota
    Really? A change of pace sounds nice.
[12:27] Jota
    So, what's "CC 2.5 x 6"?
[12:32] Haiji
    It means six laps of 2.5 kilometers each.

    Really?
[12:37] Joji
    Huh? Isn't that...
[12:39] Both
    15 kilometers?!

    It's meant to be a change of pace.
[12:44] Musa
    But Kakeru's running eight laps.
[12:51] Kakeru
    Sorry, I think.
[12:53] Joji
    You're the one who has to run it.

    Sorry.

    What?
[13:47] King

[13:49] King
    You've never run one before.
[13:51] Shindo
    Oh, right. I'm not sure.
[13:54] King
    You don't even understand.
[13:58] Shindo
    It's because I don't understand.
[14:00] Shindo
    Rather than being forced to
     do it, I felt inspired to try it.
[14:06] King
    You ever consider just not doing it?
[14:10] Shindo
    Can't say I have.
[14:12] King
    You don't have to do it if you don't understand.
[14:15] Shindo
    I felt like I'd understand once I did.
[14:20] Shindo
    I haven't tried looking for a job
     yet, so I don't understand,
[14:25] Shindo
    but don't jobs work the same way?
[14:28] King
    Huh?
[14:29] Shindo
    Why are you so serious about finding a job?
[14:33] Shindo
    Because you can't help
     how much you love working?
[14:36] King
    Of course not.
[14:39] King
    I don't have a job I like.
[14:42] King
    I don't actually want to work.
[14:44] King
    I'm just doing it because I have to.
[14:47] Shindo
    Right? I was the same way
     until I started running.
[14:51] Shindo
    I didn't even like it, but Haiji forced me to.
[14:55] Shindo
    But once I started running,
     I realized something.
[14:59] Shindo
    It's way more fun to run when you
     choose to run instead of being forced to.
[15:07] Shindo
    So I thought I'd give it an earnest shot.
[15:11] Shindo
    I might come to like running.
[15:15] Shindo
    I'm not serious about it because I like it.
[15:18] Shindo
    I thought taking it seriously might make me...

    What am I doing getting advice
    from an underclassman?
[15:25] Shindo

[06:08] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We are a real track team!
[06:09] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Oh, right!
[06:10] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    This is so amazing!
[06:12] Haiji
    Let's get changed and start warming up.
[06:14] Haiji
    Time's a-wastin'.
[06:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Whoa!
[06:19] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    These are surprisingly cool!
[06:21] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Let's take a photo!
[06:22] Shindo
    I'm freezing. These don't cover much.
[06:27] King
    Isn't yours a little small?
[06:30] Nico
    I'm just big.
[06:37] Yuki
    You're as good as they are, Musa.
[06:40] Musa
    This is upsetting. This is truly upsetting.
[06:43] Musa
    I have no redeeming qualities.
[06:46] Musa
    They've surely come to Japan
    in order to devote their lives to running.
[06:51] Musa
    Their hunger is different.
[06:53] Musa
    I can't possibly beat them!
[06:57] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Jota, you look sweet.
[06:58] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah.
[06:59] Yuki
    Hey, Musa's in some weird mode.
[07:02] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    You're right. Musa's making a weird face.
[07:05] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What? Let me see.
[07:06] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Look at this!
[07:07] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    His eyes are sticking out!
[07:11] Kakeru
    I'm surprised you can read manga right now.
[07:14] Prince
    It's to lift my spirits.
[07:16] Prince
    Now is the time to lift my spirits.
[07:19] Prince
    The stories I write are perfect.
[07:22] Prince
    In my mind, anyway.
[07:26] Shindo
    I knew it.
[07:28] Shindo
    That guy won Section Two last year.
[07:32] Shindo
    Champion of Hakone and captain of
    the Rikudo University team, Fujioka Kazuma.
[07:37] Shindo
    He's been a key member of Rikudo's
    Hakone Ekiden team three years in a row.
[07:40] Shindo
    He's the pinnacle of college running.
[07:43] Shindo
    Wow!
[07:45] King
    What? You mean Haiji knows that guy?
[07:47] Shindo
    I suppose that's what this means.
[07:50] Shindo
    Wow! There's a crazy number
    of people on the roadside.
[07:56] Shindo
    Which section do you want to run?
[07:59] King
    I have no idea.
[08:03] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah, yeah.
[08:03] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Take a picture with us.
[08:05] Nico
    I'm good. Let's just get this over with.
[08:10] Yuki
    It's okay. You can totally beat them.
[08:15] Kakeru
    Hey!
[08:18] Haiji
    I've got your number tags, guys.
[08:20] Haiji
    Let's head to the track after we get these on.
[08:23] Haiji
    Huh? What's wrong?
[08:25] Kakeru
    Nothing.
[08:41] Kazuma
    Whoops.
[08:42] Kakeru
    Sorry.
[08:45] (Flashback) Shindo
    He's the pinnacle of college running.
[08:51] Kakeru
    Nothing.

[12:19] Spectator

[12:20] Spectator
    I don't recognize his uniform.
[12:24] Spectator
    Says he's from Kansei Uni.
[12:32] Spectator
    Hey, there's another one!
[12:38] Spectator
    No, he's being lapped!
[12:41] Spectator
    You can't be serious!
[12:42] Spectator
    It's only the second lap!
[12:44] Student
    He's from Kansei Uni, too.
[12:46] Student
    They've got a crazy lineup.
[13:21] Spectator
    Hey, he caught up!
[13:23] Spectator
    Wow!
[13:51] Spectator
    They're neck and neck!
[13:53] Spectator
    Is he challenging Manas?!
[13:58] Spectator
    It's too soon!
[14:00] Spectator
    They've got two more laps. Is he suicidal?
[14:12] Nico
    He's on another level.
[14:29] Student
    Are you all right?
[14:31] Student
    Would you like to drop out?
[14:34] Student
    Here. You're dehydrated, right?
[14:37] Prince
    This is how I always run.
[14:39] Student
    What?
[14:44] Prince
    I'm not a hamster.
[14:46] Prince
    Why do I keep running around
    and around and around and...
[15:06] Kakeru
    Is this all?
[15:09] Kakeru
    I can do it.
[15:20] Kakeru
    He can go faster?
[15:27] Kakeru
    Don't lose your form.
[15:29] Kakeru
    Speed up your rotations.
[15:31] Kakeru
    Faster!

[17:57] Reporter
    When's your next race?
[17:58] Kazuma
    I'm focusing on intercollegiate races.
[17:59] Kazuma
    I'll be skipping future meets.

    Now that's some composure.

    We're looking forward to it.
[18:06] Kazuma
    Thank you.
[18:19] Kazuma
    Kurahara Kakeru.
[18:24] Kazuma
    I remember that name.
[18:25] Kazuma
    There was a fast runner
    at a high school in Sendai.
[18:28] Kazuma
    That must've been you.
[18:31] Kazuma
    It's an interesting team.
    One Kiyose would put together.
[18:35] Haiji
    Last spurt! Dig deep!
[18:37] Kazuma
    Watch out for him.
[18:39] Kakeru
    What?
[18:41] Kazuma
    On Kiyose.
[18:42] Kazuma
    In top condition, he's better than that.
[18:47] Kazuma
    Lead the team with him.
[18:51] Kakeru
    With him?
[18:53] Kazuma
    Aren't you going for Hakone?
[19:21] Haiji
    Good job, guys. You did well.
[19:26] Haiji
    Musa, Joji, and Jota finished
    around seventeen minutes.
[19:30] Haiji
    Shindo and Yuki finished
    around eighteen minutes.
[19:32] Haiji
    Once you're used to races,
    you'll reach sixteen minutes eventually.
[19:37] Haiji
    Nico-chan Senpai and King,
    it's well within your grasp, too.
[19:40] Haiji
    You shouldn't be disappointed.
[19:43] Yuki
    What about this guy, then?
[19:46] Yuki
    Not a single other person
    finished in thirty minutes.
[19:49] Yuki
    They nearly forced him to stop running.
[19:54] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    No one except Kakeru and Haiji
    achieved an official record.
[19:58] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's like we can't compete with them.
[20:01] Prince
    That Tokyo Sport Uni guy called us stupid.
[20:07] Prince
    Where's their sportsmanship?
[20:11] Nico
    Well, this is reality.
[20:14] Kakeru
    We knew this.
[20:19] Kakeru
    We knew all of this.
[20:22] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Why do you care? You met the goal.
[20:25] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah.

    Hey! Welcome back.
[00:27] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I thought you'd be back before us.
[00:30] Kakeru
    What are you doing?
[00:31] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Throwing an after-party.
[00:32] Kakeru
    Not a review session?
[00:34] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah, you could call it that.
[00:36] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Go get changed.
[00:39] Prince
    All that talk about sportsmanship...
[00:43] Prince
    In the end, they just play dirty.
[00:45] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I know. I understand how you feel.
[00:48] Prince
    Someone elbowed me as soon as we started.
[00:50] King
    Someone pushed my back.
[00:52] Prince
    It made me lose all desire to run.
[00:54] Shindo
    Everyone's desperate to secure a good position.
[00:58] Prince
    If it's a race for the best time,
[01:00] Prince
    we should run one at a time
    and then compare results.
[01:04] Yuki
    They can't do that.
[01:07] Nico
    Kakeru, you don't get it, do you?
[01:09] Kakeru
    Huh?
[01:10] Nico
    These complaints.
[01:12] Nico
    There was no one running near you.
[01:14] Yuki
    You were running alone.
[01:16] Kakeru
    That's not true.
[01:17] King
    I felt bad to be wearing
    the same uniform as you.
[01:21] Musa
    It was fantastic.
[01:23] Musa
    You finished third in your first race.
[01:25] Musa
    I heard lots of people asking,
    "who was that?" after the race.
[01:30] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. Everyone was talking
    about you, especially the girls.
[01:34] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Lucky. I wish I had the girls' attention.

[03:20] Shindo
    How did we do?
[03:22] Shindo
    How were today's results?
[03:25] Haiji
    What did you guys think?
[03:27] King
    He doesn't want to comment.
[03:29] Musa
    It didn't go as well as I'd hoped.
[03:31] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It was fun at first.
[03:34] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    But I couldn't get the right pace.
[03:36] Shindo
    It really hurts when there
    are winners and losers.
[03:39] Yuki
    Isn't our goal to achieve official records,
[03:43] Yuki
    so we can run in the Hakone Ekiden qualifier?
[03:45] Yuki
    Since none of us did, it was a crushing defeat.
[03:48] King
    Huh? Didn't Kakeru and Haiji make it?
[03:51] Yuki
    You don't need to count them.
[03:53] Shindo
    We should. They're on the team.
[03:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I didn't even beat my personal
    record from practice.
[04:00] Haiji
    Races and practice are different.
[04:03] Haiji
    If anything, experiencing the
    difference was a major achievement.
[04:08] Haiji
    We'll overcome that in
    our upcoming practices, and...
[04:12] Kakeru
    Running like this...
[04:15] Kakeru
    We will make it in time running like this?
[04:18] Haiji
    Of course.
[04:20] Haiji
    In two weeks, we'll attend
    the Kikui Uni track meet.
[04:24] Haiji
    We'll practice even harder to prepare for it.
[04:27] Both
    Even harder?!
[04:28] Haiji
    We'll start on a new training
    schedule tomorrow,
[04:31] Haiji
    increasing both distance and speed.
[04:33] King
    Can't we have tomorrow off?
[04:36] Prince
    I agree. You need to cool down after a race.
[04:40] Haiji
    There's no need to rest an entire day.
[04:43] Haiji
    Long distance running is
    all about practicing every day.
[04:47] Kakeru
    I don't mind starting right now.
[04:49] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Right now?
[04:51] Nico
    I've been drinking.
[04:53] Kakeru
    I'm saying we should be taking
    today's results just that seriously.
[04:59] Kakeru
    We're running at Hakone, aren't we?
[05:03] Yuki
    Hey, what's gotten into you?
[05:06] Shindo
    Don't worry. We all intend to.
[05:09] Kakeru
    Then what are we doing now?
[05:11] Kakeru
    A review session?
[05:13] Kakeru
    This is just a party, isn't it?
[05:15] Shindo
    I thought it was a review session.
[05:18] Nico
    Me, too.
[05:19] Yuki
    You had too much to drink.
[05:20] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I think this kind of thing is necessary, too.
[05:23] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. After all, we're a team.
[05:26] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We'll practice hard starting tomorrow.
[05:27] King
    I'm telling you, we should take tomorrow off.
[05:29] Prince

[05:50] Nico
    It's not that I don't understand how you feel.
[05:54] Nico
    But I understand how they feel, too.
[05:57] Nico
    It takes courage to face something head on.
[06:00] Kakeru
    That's something you should
    have by the time you start.
[06:04] Nico
    Sure, you do.
[06:07] Nico
    It's amazing that you were
    able to compete with Fujioka.
[06:11] Nico
    You must've been incredible.
[06:13] Kakeru
    Not at all.
[06:14] Kakeru
    There was nothing I could
    do during that final lap.
[06:17] Nico
    There was nothing we could
    do from our first lap.
[06:20] Kakeru
    That's why we should be
    taking this more seriously.
[06:22] Nico
    Hey, Kakeru. What should I do?
[06:25] Kakeru
    Huh?
[06:27] Nico
    I'm too heavy.
[06:29] Nico
    Should I shed some flesh or shed some bone?
[06:32] Kakeru
    Issues of build are—
[06:34] Nico
    They exist.
[06:35] Nico
    You know that, don't you?
[06:39] Nico
    Running today reaffirmed something for me.
[06:42] Nico
    My body's not suited to long distance.
[06:45] Nico
    I ran every day,
[06:46] Nico
    but it was a close race between me
    and King, who took some time off.
[06:50] Kakeru
    Is that why you quit running?
[06:54] Nico
    In high school, yeah. My coach told me to quit.
[06:57] Nico
    Oh, I don't resent him for it.
[06:59] Nico
    If anything, I felt relieved then.
[07:03] Kakeru
    But that means you were frustrated, right?
[07:06] Kakeru
    That's why you told me.
[07:09] Kakeru
    It means you can't give it up.
[07:13] Nico
    Maybe you're right.
[07:18] Nico
    I was frustrated, but it's also
    the reason I was happy, too.
[07:23] Nico
    That feeling when you start...
[07:29] Nico
    I never thought I'd get to taste that again.
[07:33] Kakeru
    Then you should keep running.
[07:35] Kakeru
    Let's both give everything we have.
[07:46] Haiji
    Where's Kakeru?
[07:47] Musa
    He went ahead without us.
[07:49] Yuki
    Seriously? So we're back to how we started?
[07:53] Shindo
    He wants to run at his
    own pace starting today.
[07:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Nico-chan Senpai said he wanted
    to try running at his own pace
[07:59] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    during morning practice, too.
[08:01] King
    What? You sure he didn't just skip?
[08:09] Hanako
    Kurahara!
[08:36] Nico
    Shut up!
[08:37] Nico
    It sounds like this thing
    is groaning! It's creepy!
[08:40] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    But my legs...
[08:41] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    My butt is cramping.
[08:44] Both
    You're gonna curse us!
[08:46] Nico
    You guys don't need to be here.
[08:48] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah, but we can't move anymore.
[08:52] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe we can take a bath tomorrow.
[08:55] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Let's do that.
[08:56] Nico
    Isn't that what you said yesterday?
[08:58] Prince
    I found it.
[09:00] Nico
    A treadmill?
[09:01] Prince
    Yes.
[09:02] Prince
    Ugh, but it's expensive.
[09:05] Nico
    Is that what you've been shopping for?
[09:08] Prince
    Yes. There must be a cheaper one somewhere...
[09:11] Nico
    Hurry it up. You should go to Yuki's room.
[09:15] Prince
    He'd never let me in his room.
[09:18] Nico
    You're right, especially
    not if they went with you.
[09:22] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Jota, right there.
[09:24] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I'll try the same spot.
[09:26] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Oh, it's so good.
[09:28] Nico
    That's gross!
[09:30] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Why are you in such a bad mood?
[09:32] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Is it withdrawal?
[09:34] Nico
    Anyway, Prince, does this
    mean you want to run now?
[09:37] Prince
    No, but he's been pestering us
    to practice all the time.
[09:42] Prince
    I'd like to at least be able
    to read comics while I do.
[09:50] Prince
    This mouse is so hard to use.
[09:54] Prince
    No, it's not a mouse!
[09:55] Prince
    What is this?!
[09:57] Nico
    What? Shut up already.
[09:59] Prince
    This!
[10:00] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yikes.
[10:01] Nico
    It's so I wouldn't accidentally smoke.
[10:03] Prince
    It's just like Rikiishi!
[10:04] Nico
    Huh?
[10:05] Prince
    Are you a fan of Joe?
[10:07] Nico
    That's not what I was trying to do.
[10:09] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What's Rikiishi?
[10:11] Prince
    You don't know, you idiots?
[10:13] Prince
    He's a boxer. Joe's first,
     and greatest, rival.
[10:18] Prince
    In order to lose weight, he didn't allow
    himself to drink a single drop of water.
[10:22] Prince

    Don't die while standing
    during the Hakone Ekiden.
[10:36] Nico
    Don't say such ominous things.
[10:38] Prince
    You've touched my heart.
[10:40] Nico
    How?
[10:41] Prince
    I won't be beat!
[10:42] Prince
    I'm gonna buy a treadmill!

    Shut up! Go to the second floor!
[11:00] Nico
    Stay out of my room!
[11:25] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Our fixed-pace runs are twice as long.
[11:28] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    The build-up runs have increased a lot, too.
[11:31] Haiji
    I considered each of you individually.
[11:33] Haiji
    We'll increase the intensity
    of practice in any way we can.
[11:38] Musa
    Let's try it. I'm sure we can do it.
[11:41] Shindo
    Yeah.
[11:42] Yuki
    Hold on. Is that okay?
[11:44] Yuki
    Build-up runs are speed training, right?
[11:48] Yuki
    They're exhausting and hard on your legs.
[11:54] Yuki
    What?
[11:54] Shindo
    Yuki, you finally feel like running?
[11:56] Yuki
    No! I'm just worried about you guys!
[11:59] Nico
    I knew you cared.
[12:01] Yuki
    If we injure ourselves, we'll have nothing.
[12:06] Haiji
    Yuki's right.
[12:08] Haiji
    Some of you will struggle with build-ups,
[12:12] Haiji
    so I've incorporated interval runs, as well.
[12:16] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What?! You're adding more?
[12:18] King
    Were you listening to what Yuki said?
[12:20] Kakeru
    Let's do it. We're wasting time.
[12:22] Haiji
    Let's split into two groups.
[12:35] Haiji
    You can do it. You've got this, Prince.
[12:38] Prince
    I can do it?

    What do you think I can do?
[12:50] Kakeru
    Run on the left!
SIGN    Ugh

    Clear the path!
[12:53] Prince
    Okay...

    What?
[13:12] Kakeru
    Are you running tonight?
[13:14] Kakeru
    Are you going jogging tonight?
[13:17] Shindo
    Oh, uh...
[13:18] Musa
    We're exhausted from practice today.
[13:22] Kakeru
    Then, even though we've stepped up
    practice, we won't have gained anything.
[13:27] Musa
    But...
[13:28] Shindo
    We were jogging at night for other reasons.
[13:31] Kakeru
    The fan club, right?
    Have you been gaining members?
[13:35] Shindo
    Slowly.
[13:36] Shindo
    But I'm too exhausted to recruit.
[13:42] Haiji
    Kakeru, behind you!
[13:44] Woman
    Hey, watch out!
[13:48] Haiji
    Be careful.
[13:49] Haiji
    Practice lasts until we get home.

    Teacher says the field trip
    lasts until we get home.
[13:57] Yuki
    You've got energy to spare.
[13:58] King
    I'm really thinking about quitting today.
[14:03] Kakeru
    Let's keep going. We shouldn't
    quit what we've started.
[14:10] Musa
    He sure is fast, isn't he?
[14:15] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Whoa!
[14:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's so hot!
[14:19] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    This is it! This feels great!
[14:27] Yuki
    The bath is hell,
[14:29] Yuki
    but the sauna is pretty bad, too.
[14:32] Haiji
    Don't forget to hydrate.
[14:37] Yuki
    I'm sure you know, but Nico-chan
    Senpai's pushing himself too hard.
[14:42] Yuki
    Kakeru's egging him on.
[14:44] Haiji
    Egging him on?
[14:46] Yuki
    He used to run track.
[14:49] Yuki
    Having a fast guy tell him he can do it
    probably makes him feel like he can.
[14:53] Yuki
    I think it's dangerous.
[14:59] Shindo
    What's the hardest part about section 8?
[15:02] King
    Too easy. The Yugyo-ji Temple Slope.
[15:04] Shindo
    Correct.
[15:05] King
    Yeah!
[15:06] King
    What else? What else you got?
[15:08] Shindo
    Oh, uh...

    King seems to be doing well.
[15:11] Musa
    When he mentioned the Ekiden
    in his afternoon interview,
[15:15] Musa
    it was apparently received very well.
[15:17] Nico
    It's working for him.
[15:18] Nico
    Thanks for the food.
[15:20] Yuki
    That was quick.
    Did you get enough to eat?
[15:23] Nico
    Sure I did.
[15:25] Nico
    Food tastes better since I stopped smoking.
[15:36] Haiji
    It's important to let your muscles rest.

    And Hana's times are accurate.
[18:26] Kakeru
    Sorry.
[18:40] Kakeru
    What?
[18:41] Haiji
    You don't need to run at the next meet.
[18:44] Haiji
    Only the members who haven't
    achieved official records will attend.
[18:48] Kakeru
    Why?
[18:50] Kakeru
    Is it because my time hasn't improved?
[18:53] Kakeru
    In that case, it's better that I run.
[18:56] Kakeru
    If I run, I can get back in shape.
[18:58] Haiji
    It's pointless.
[19:00] Haiji
    You can't see yourself right now.
[19:06] Kakeru
    Then where can I leave my record?
[19:10] Haiji
    There's always more track meets.
[19:12] Haiji
    In the first place, we've
    focused our aim on Hakone—
[19:16] Kakeru
    Are you telling me to waste an entire year?
[19:20] Kakeru
    It'll all be for nothing
    if I don't leave a record.
[19:25] Haiji
    Are records everything?
[19:26] Kakeru
    What?
[19:28] Haiji
    Is running for you all about speed
    and abandoning those who fall behind?
[19:36] Kakeru
    We're competing.
[19:38] Kakeru
    We're not even guaranteed to run
    in the Hakone Ekiden qualifier.
[19:42] Kakeru
    Matching their half-assed speed
    won't make me any faster.
[19:46] Haiji
    No one here is running half-assed!
[19:52] Haiji
    Why won't you try to acknowledge
    that everyone's trying their best?
[19:57] Haiji
    Is it because they're slower than you?
[19:59] Haiji
    Is speed the only thing that matters to you?
[20:03] Haiji
    Then there's no reason to run.
[20:05] Haiji
    Ride a bullet train. Ride a plane.
[20:08] Haiji
    They're faster.

[10:47] Announcer
    please gather at the starting line.
[10:51] Shindo
    It's our second time, but I'm still nervous.
[10:54] Musa
    It's because it's our second time.
[10:56] Yuki
    Practice should be just as hard.
[11:00] Musa
    Will we ever get used to this?
[11:02] Shindo
    We probably shouldn't.
[11:06] Yuki
    Nicely said.
[11:07] Jota
    I'm taking the inside.
[11:09] Joji
    Then I'll create space in front of you.
[11:11] Joji
    Pass me if you think you've got it.
[11:14] Jota
    Okay.
[11:15] Jota
    This kind of feels like a game.
[11:17] Joji
    Huh? Isn't this a game?
[11:19] Jota
    No, like a soccer game.
[11:21] Joji
    Oh, yeah. We used to swap
    positions all the time.
[11:24] Jota
    Our opponents couldn't tell us apart.
[11:29] Jota
    I think I like games.
[11:32] Joji
    Me, too.
[11:34] King
    I'm pretty nervous.
[11:36] Nico
    They'll be fine. They're the elite team.
[11:42] Kakeru
    I'm running. I'm going to run.
[11:45] (Flashback) Haiji
    I registered in advance.
[11:48] (Flashback) Kakeru
    Then what have I been training for?
[11:51] (Flashback) Haiji
    To run at Hakone.
[11:52] (Flashback) Haiji
    You already got your official record.
[11:55] (Flashback) Kakeru
    That's not what this is about!
[11:57] (Flashback) Kakeru
    You should understand better than anyone
[12:00] (Flashback) Kakeru
    how it feels not to be able
    to run when you want to!
[12:09] (Flashback) Haiji
    I do understand.
[12:11] (Flashback) Haiji
    I know you want to run more than anything.
[12:14] (Flashback) Haiji
    And that you don't see what running is about.
[12:16] (Flashback) Kakeru
    What?
[12:18] (Flashback) Haiji
    Stop. Take in the view.
[12:21] (Flashback) Haiji
    Then slowly start running again.
[12:24] (Flashback) Haiji
    Be like Prince and Nico-chan Senpai.
SIGN    Why?
[12:37] Prince
    I don't think I've narrowly escaped.
[12:41] Prince
    If anything, you could say
    I've got no way out now.
[12:45] Kakeru
    That was...
[12:47] King
    Oh, right. I heard you said something to Prince.
[12:51] King
    You're a first-year, right?
[12:53] Nico
    King.
[12:56] Kakeru
    That was...
[12:58] Kakeru
    It was the heat of the moment.
[13:01] Prince
    So you take it back.
[13:03] Kakeru
    I don't. I'm taking this seriously in my own way.
[13:08] Nico
    You finally said what's really on your mind.
[13:14] Nico
    I'm not blaming you.
[13:20] Prince
    I can't believe I'm watching a track meet.
[13:22] Prince
    I wouldn't have imagined this a month ago.
[13:44] King
    Watching them from here
    makes you realize how fast they are.
[13:47] King
    To achieve an official record,
    your pace for each lap needs to be...
[13:51] Nico
    Faster than 1:19.
[13:56] King
    Last time, running took so much of my energy
[13:59] King
    that I couldn't afford to worry about my time.
[14:22] Prince
    They're starting to spread out.
[14:31] King
    Wow! The twins are hanging on!
[14:34] Nico
    They might actually do it.
[14:39] Haiji
    Musa, this is the moment of truth!
[14:41] Haiji
    Calm down and hold that pace!
[14:42] King
    How many seconds per lap did you say?
[14:45] Nico
    Huh? Uh, one minute... um...
[14:49] Nico
    I forgot.
[14:50] King
    Hey, you were smug when
    you immediately answered earlier!
[14:53] Nico
    Shut up! It's your fault for not remembering!
[16:03] All
    Go! Go!
[16:07] All
    Aotake!
[16:09] All
    You can do it!
[16:10] All
    Go!
[16:12] All
    Aotake!
[16:13] All
    Keep it up! Keep it up!
[16:16] Haiji
    Final lap!
[16:17] Haiji
    Final lap!
[16:19] Haiji
    Final lap!
[16:22] Haiji
    Final lap!
[16:25] All
    Go! Go! Go!
[16:28] All
    Keep it up!
[16:59] King
    That was close.
[17:02] King
    I thought you were gonna make it.
[17:05] Yuki
    You're unbelievable.
[17:06] Nico
    Wasn't that your best time, Yuki?
[17:09] Nico
    You didn't achieve an official result,
    but it wasn't bad, at all.
[17:13] Yuki
    When I think about how I have to run again,
[17:16] Yuki
    it makes me want to puke.
[17:19] Haiji
    That was close.
[17:21] Shindo
    I waited too long during the middle.
[17:23] Shindo
    I could've gone sooner.
[17:26] Shindo
    I realized I'm not someone
    who can win a sprint.
[17:31] Haiji
    You sound like a long-distance runner.
[17:35] Joji
    I laughed.
[17:39] Jota
    Me, too.
[17:40] Joji
    During our final lap, Haiji...
[17:53] Joji
    We couldn't hear what you
    were saying, but we saw you.
[17:58] Jota
    Just as we were thinking,
    "Stop! It's embarrassing,"
[18:01] Jota
    we actually started running faster.
[18:03] Musa
    I know what you mean.
[18:05] Musa
    Support is really, truly essential.
[18:13] Musa
    Just thinking that these two
    were saying something to me
[18:18] Musa
    made my vision blurry.
[18:21] Musa
    Thank you.
[18:22] Both
    What?
[18:24] Musa
    I could see you.
[18:26] Musa
    You were saying something, weren't you?
[18:29] Joji
    Musa's got really good eyes.
[18:32] Jota
    Yeah. He can see Aotake
    from the top of the Skytree.
[18:36] Yuki
    Don't lie.
[18:39] Prince
    He was calling everyone's names.
[18:42] Kakeru
    S-So were you.
[18:45] Prince
    I was just barely speaking.
[18:47] Prince
    He was shouting.
[18:49] Kakeru
    That's not fair.
[18:51] Prince
    I was so embarrassed
    to be standing next to him.
[18:53] Prince
    I didn't know what to do.
[18:59] Nico
    He's a good guy at heart, too.
[19:02] Kakeru
    Hey.
[19:04] Haiji
    Everyone who ran and everyone
    who cheered, you guys did a great job.
[19:10] Haiji
    Because of your efforts,
    everyone's times improved considerably.
[19:13] Haiji
    This is a huge step forward.
[19:17] Haiji
    We've got our own way
    of doing things. Have faith.
[19:23] Haiji
    We'll have plenty more chances.
[19:26] Shindo
    Yes, sir!
[19:27] King
    You scared me.
[19:29] Yuki
    Well, it's not my style to end on a loss.
[19:33] Nico
    Oh, yeah? Should we run home, then?
[19:36] Both
    No way.
[19:39] Yuki
    I wish I could've been a spectator this time.
[19:44] All
    Cheers!
[19:52] Haiji
    How was it?
[19:53] Kakeru
    Huh?
[19:54] Haiji
    Watching from the outside.
[19:56] Haiji
    Did you see anyone running half-assed?
[20:01] Haiji
    I didn't see anyone.
[20:04] Haiji
    Everyone was going as hard as they could.
[20:06] Haiji
    Not just us. Everyone running was.
[20:14] Kakeru
    I understand what you're trying to say.
[20:17] Kakeru
    When they failed to achieve official records,
[20:21] Kakeru
    I was as disappointed as if it were me.
[20:25] Kakeru
    I felt for the first time the earnestness
    of the people cheering around me.
[20:30] Kakeru
    That's why I understand
    what you're trying to say.
[20:33] Kakeru
    But I still don't think we can do it.
[20:39] Kakeru
    Even if everyone achieves an official record,
[20:43] Kakeru
    Hakone is...
[20:55] Kakeru
    Haiji?
[20:56] Kakeru
    Haiji!

[02:14] All

[02:22] Yuki
    Being stuck with a syringe didn't wake him up.
[02:24] Yuki
    He must be really exhausted.
[02:26] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    It's hard to tell when he actually sleeps.
[02:29] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I thought he was fine without sleep.
[02:32] Musa
    It's not just practice.
[02:34] Musa
    He was doing all the cooking, too.
[02:39] Kakeru
    It's my fault.
[02:45] Kakeru
    I made him worry.
[02:48] Nico
    You know that's not true.
[02:50] Prince
    I caused him much more concern.
[02:53] Kakeru
    No, I...
[02:54] Nico
    It was everyone.
[02:56] Nico
    All of us can think of something we did.
[03:07] Yuki
    Coach.
[03:09] Yuki
    Please stop. It's ominous.
[03:13] Coach
    I don't know what to do in times like these.
[03:18] Yuki
    You don't need to do anything.
[03:23] Shindo
    We should run practice
    ourselves tomorrow, right?
[03:27] Musa
    I agree.
[03:30] King
    Come to think of it, clerical procedures
    like registering for meets
[03:35] King
    were all Haiji's job, too.
[03:40] Shindo
    Supervisor-cum-coach-cum-
    manager-cum-dorm leader, huh?
[03:49] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We should at least take turns cooking.
[03:52] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. All I can cook is ochazuke, though.
[03:56] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Me, too. I've only ever boiled pasta.
[04:00] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Can we survive without Haiji?
[04:05] Nico
    Why don't you reconcile?
[04:09] Nico
    I mean you guys.
[04:11] Nico
    Quit the team if you can't run fast enough?
[04:14] Nico
    This is no time to be saying that.
[04:18] Prince
    I'm not the one who suggested it.
[04:20] Nico
    You're his senior.
[04:23] Kakeru
    I was just expressing my misgivings.
[04:26] Nico
    Hey!
[04:27] Prince
    If that's what you hurled at me,
    then you're being a nuisance.
[04:31] Kakeru
    Earlier, you said you made him worry.
[04:34] Kakeru
    You are making him worry, aren't you?
[04:37] Nico
    That's enough!
[04:42] Nico
    Don't ruin what Haiji entrusted to you.
[04:46] Both
    You make it sound like he's dead!

    I can't even be a substitute captain.
[05:32] King
    We never decided who'd do it.
[05:35] Musa
    I believe that, as the eldest
    and most experienced,
[05:39] Musa
    you're the most suitable candidate.
[05:41] Nico
    I just can't. I can't afford
    to look after others.

[05:57] Prince
    You mean you don't know about "but I refuse?"
[06:00] Yuki
    Just so you know, I still don't
    think we can make it to Hakone.
[06:05] Yuki
    I wouldn't know how to lead the team.
[06:08] King
    You're still saying that?
[06:10] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    After participating in all these practices?
[06:12] Yuki
    Shut up. No. Ask someone else.
[06:15] Shindo
    Then...
[06:18] Shindo
    Kakeru, how about you?
[06:19] King
    Hey! What about me?

    There's no way you'd want to do it.

    Be asked and decline.

    In other words, Haiji opened the

[10:00] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    His room's on the first floor.
    It must've been easy.

    I...
[11:30] Haiji
    I'm not criticizing you.

[14:13] Prince
    You're making fun of me, aren't you?
[14:15] Kakeru
    No, I'm serious.
[14:17] Shindo
    What? You're going to run like that?
[14:19] Musa
    It's dangerous.
[14:21] Kakeru
    It'll be fine. I just want to try it for a bit.
[14:24] Haiji
    Then, I'll lead the way.
[14:26] Kakeru
    Please do.
[14:29] Kakeru
    That's it. That's it, Prince.

[14:31] Kakeru
    Normally, you look down when you read comics.
[14:36] Kakeru
    But when you're on the treadmill,
[14:39] Kakeru
    you naturally look forwards
    since your comics are in front of you.
[14:43] Kakeru
    You stand up straighter than
    you do when you're just running.
[14:47] Kakeru
    It brings your center of gravity forwards.
[14:49] Prince
    What?
[14:51] Kakeru
    Good pace, right?
[14:53] Haiji
    Maybe.
[14:54] Prince
    Then could you turn the pages, too?
[14:57] Prince
    And could I try something else?
[15:10] Kakeru
    This is amazing, Prince.
[15:12] Kakeru
    It's totally different.
[15:14] Kakeru
    You're totally different.
[15:16] Prince
    With my bangs out of my face, I can
    see what's in front of me a lot better.
[15:21] Kakeru
    Yes.
[15:22] Haiji
    What have you been looking at until now?
[15:25] Kakeru
    Try imagining a comic
    in front of you as you run.
[15:39] Shindo
    There's a lot I'd like to say about that.
[15:42] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I bet it'd be fun if you
    put bells in his hands.
[15:45] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Why does he do that?
[15:47] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I know! It's like when he's reading comics!
[15:50] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Oh!
[15:51] Kakeru
    Yes. Prince's arms are fixed in a reading
    position even when he's running.
[15:57] Yuki
    Now that I think about it,
    I'm amazed he could run like that.
[16:02] Kakeru
    Since we're not short-distance runners,
[16:04] Kakeru
    there's no need for sweeping arm movements.
[16:07] Kakeru
    But I'd like to fix his habit
    of holding them in place.
[16:12] King
    Hey, it's starting to look right.
[16:16] Kakeru
    "I can't wait to go back to my room and read!"
[16:18] Kakeru
    Imagine that as you run.
[16:20] Prince
    I can't wait to go back to my room and read.
[16:23] Kakeru
    Yes, that's it. Keep it up.
[16:26] Haiji
    You've got your color back.
[16:28] Nico
    Huh?
[16:30] Nico
    I've been eating.
[16:31] Nico
    I don't want to make you worry unnecessarily.
[16:34] Haiji
    Thank you.
[16:36] Nico
    You don't miss a thing.
[16:38] Nico
    What about them?
    You could've intervened anytime.
[16:42] Nico
    Did you stay out of it because
    you knew this would happen?
[16:45] Haiji
    No way.
[16:47] Haiji
    I intended to fix things if I had to.
[16:50] Haiji
    But I didn't think it'd ever really be his
    if he'd learned to run that way.
[16:56] Haiji
    It's truly a fortunate error.
[16:59] Kakeru
    "I wish I could go back to my room and read!"
[17:02] Kakeru
    Now you!

    I wish I could go back to my room and read!

    Some go for sprints while others
    excel at managing their pace.
[02:54] Haiji
    Uphill, downhill. Everyone's

[02:57] Yuki
    So we shouldn't worry about it?
[03:00] Yuki
    Uniqueness certainly sounds nice,
[03:03] Yuki
    but doesn't that mean some people
    aren't suited to running at all?
[03:07] Shindo

[05:08] Official
    You won with a huge lead.

    Thank you.
[05:12] Official
    You must be a top runner nationally, as well.

[05:20] Official
    We're looking forward to this year's
    prefectural and national races.

[05:26] Coach
    Apparently, they want me to speak
    at a party about fostering athletes.
[05:31] Coach
    I've asked the coaches to manage
    your training schedule, so don't worry.
[05:35] Kakeru
    Yes, sir.
[05:35] Coach
    It's all thanks to what you've achieved.
[05:39] Coach
    Hey, you! Don't walk so slowly!

    He doesn't get it.
[06:41] Kosuke
    It can't be helped. He's a first-year.
[06:44] Student
    Tell him he only needs
    to try when he's watching.
[06:48] Kosuke
    You tell him.
[06:50] Student
    He won't listen to me.
[06:51] Student
    After all, he's a scholarship student.
[07:04] Kakeru
    If you can't do it,
[07:05] Kakeru
    I don't think you have to run.
[07:16] Student
    Have you ever suffered an injury?
[07:22] Student
    Didn't think so.

[11:51] Kakeru
    Um...
[11:52] Joji
    He asked you to lead Group B since
    we're splitting into two groups.
[11:56] Jota
    Quit spacing out.
[11:58] Kakeru
    Sorry.
[12:30] Haiji
    You must be cold.
[12:32] Haiji
    I heated up some milk.
[12:35] Haiji
    Look at those stars.
[12:38] Haiji
    It'd be a waste not to see this.
[12:49] Kakeru
    How much do you know?
[12:53] Kakeru
    About me.
[12:54] Haiji
    How much?
[12:56] Kakeru
    You knew the morning
    after I first stayed at Aotake
[13:02] Kakeru
    that I was from Sendai Josei High School.
[13:06] Haiji
    Yeah.
[13:07] Kakeru
    Which means...
[13:08] Haiji
    A quick search online revealed
    just how good a runner you were.
[13:14] Haiji
    That you were a nationally top-ranked
    runner by your second year,
[13:18] Haiji
    and that your records suddenly
    stopped the spring of your third year.
[13:23] Haiji
    But that's all I know.
[13:25] Haiji
    There was no need for me
    to investigate any further.
[13:31] Kakeru
    I can't cause the team any more trouble
    than I have already.
[13:37] Kakeru
    I can't control my emotions.
[13:42] Kakeru
    When that reporter spoke to me,
    I felt like I had woken up from a dream.
[13:47] Kakeru
    I realized no matter
    how far I run, I'm still me.
[13:52] Kakeru
    Haiji, I—
[13:53] Haiji
    Kakeru.
[13:56] Haiji
    If you're going to talk, why not tell everyone?
[14:00] Haiji
    It's okay.
[14:01] Haiji
    No matter what happens, we're still us.
[14:08] Hanako
    You're still awake.
[14:09] Haiji
    Sorry you had to bathe last.
[14:12] Haiji
    Was the bath dirty?
[14:13] Hanako
    Not at all.
[14:14] Hanako
    You cleaned it again for me, didn't you?
[14:17] Kakeru
    Well, yeah.
[14:18] Haiji
    Really? You're that considerate?
[14:21] Kakeru
    Yuki told me to use my head.
[14:24] Haiji
    Your seniors can teach you
    all kinds of things.
[14:27] Haiji
    By the way...
[14:29] Haiji
    Kakeru, do you have a girlfriend?
[14:31] Kakeru
    What?
[14:32] Hanako
    Seriously? I wanna know!
[14:35] Kakeru
    O-Of course I don't. Where did that come from?
[14:39] Haiji
    Well, the night sky was just so pretty.
[14:44] Hanako
    What does that mean?
[14:46] Kakeru
    What?
[14:47] Hanako
    The stars are mad pretty!
[14:49] Haiji
    Right?
[14:50] Hanako
    Yeah!
[14:51] Kakeru
    You'll wake the others!
[14:52] Haiji
    Look, Hana. A shooting star.
[15:03] Hanako
    Dad?
[15:10] Kakeru
    I hated my high school track team.
[15:15] Kakeru
    My coach's methods,
    the stuffy air of that club room...
[15:20] Kakeru
    I hated it so much, it made me want to puke.
[15:23] Kakeru
    I broke my coach's nose,
    lost my college recommendation,
[15:28] Kakeru
    and quit the club.
[15:30] Kakeru
    Since the school wanted to keep it quiet,
    they imposed restrictions on the team.
[15:36] Kakeru
    The summer of my third year,
[15:39] Kakeru
    none of my classmates
    were able to participate in meets.
[15:47] Kakeru
    Looking back on it,
[15:49] Kakeru
    what happened to that first-year
    was just an opportunity for me
[15:53] Kakeru
    to release all my pent-up anger
    and achieve some self-satisfaction.
[16:02] Kakeru
    It's no wonder they hate me.
[16:05] Kakeru
    Because of a moment's decision,
    I wasted three years of their effort.
[16:12] Kakeru
    Especially for Sakaki...
[16:15] Jota
    I see.
[16:16] Joji
    That's why he hates you so much.
[16:18] Kakeru
    It's no wonder he hates me.
[16:21] Kakeru
    I became unable to see anything but myself.
[16:27] Kakeru
    That's what I'm afraid of.
[16:29] Kakeru
    I'm worried I might do something similar again.
[16:33] Kakeru
    I was nearly unable to stop myself again.
[16:41] Nico
    You've been hesitant about running
    because you were worried about that?
[16:46] Prince
    But you had a reason, right?
[16:49] Prince
    A reason you had to do it.
[16:52] Prince
    It's not good to use violence
    against another person, though.
[16:56] Kakeru
    Yes. That's why...
[16:58] Yuki
    That's why?
[17:02] Kakeru
    That's why...
[17:06] Kakeru
    Before I cause any more trouble for you guys...
[17:12] Kakeru
    Before that, I...
[17:13] Yuki
    Hey.
[17:17] Yuki
    We've already started running.
[17:19] Nico
    We won't let you bail on us now.
[17:23] Shindo
    They're right.
[17:25] Shindo
    If anything, I'm glad to know.
[17:27] Shindo
    Thanks for telling us.
[17:29] King
    We more or less already knew that
    you tend to act before you speak.
[17:35] Prince
    If anything, I can't believe
    you were worried about that.
[17:38] Both
    Yeah.
[17:40] Musa
    Kakeru, I really like you.
[17:45] Musa
    Don't the rest of you?
[17:46] Both
    Yeah.
[17:50] King
    It's hard to say yes when
    you're asked face-to-face.
[17:56] Haiji
    When we first met,
[17:58] Haiji
    I was captivated by the way you ran.
[18:03] Haiji
    I was moved.
[18:05] Haiji
    I couldn't believe someone
    could have such pure running form.
[18:08] Haiji
    I thought you might already
    know the answer I was seeking.
[18:14] Haiji
    What it means to run.
    The answer to that question.
[18:21] Haiji
    But I still haven't found the answer.
[18:24] Haiji
    The more I run, the more
    difficult I realize it is.
[18:29] Haiji
    Don't you feel the same way?
[18:32] Jota
    I have fun running with you!
[18:34] Joji
    Me, too. In fact, I have more fun than Jota!
[18:38] Jota
    You what?
[18:39] Joji
    I was just speaking my mind.
[18:41] Yuki
    Don't ruin the moment!
[18:44] Both
    Yeah, but...
[18:45] Haiji
    Me, too.
[18:46] Haiji
    I enjoy running with you guys,
    from the bottom of my heart.
[18:55] Haiji
    Kakeru, the goal is still far ahead.
[18:59] Haiji

    All right, that concludes our meeting.
[19:35] Kakeru
    Sorry.
[19:37] Haiji
    For what?
[19:40] Haiji
    You don't need to apologize.
[19:43] Kakeru
    Thank you for believing in me.
[19:49] Haiji
    You're welcome.
[19:53] Kakeru
    I want to run.

    I can't help it.
[20:23] Haiji
    Hey, guys. Kakeru's finally
    ready to take things seriously.
[20:27] Haiji
    He said he's serious about
    running at Hakone starting now.
[20:30] Joji
    What? Seriously?
[20:32] Joji
    I thought we already were.
[20:34] Jota

    Do whatever you want.
[05:06] Yuki
    In other words,
[05:07] Yuki
    we need to match everyone's strengths
    to each 20-kilometer section, right?
[05:13] Yuki
    A team like ours has no choice
    but to focus on that.
[05:17] Haiji
    Yeah. I'm planning to switch over
    to running in 10K races, too.
[05:21] Haiji
    We need to increase our distance, starting with those
    who have achieved the requisite time.
[05:25] Yuki
    I've been reading a few books
    on long distance running.
[05:28] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Hey.
[05:30] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We're gonna start lighting them.
[05:33] Hanako
    Ta-da!
[05:34] Haiji
    We're coming.
[05:36] Yuki
    I'd like to understand the goals
    of our training schedule better.
[05:39] Yuki
    I have a few suggestions. Let's talk later.
[05:42] Haiji
    Got it.
[05:45] Kakeru
    Yuki understands the scientific
    stuff better than I do.
[05:49] Haiji
    That's why I made him a member.
[05:53] Kakeru
    Did you really?
[05:57] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Last spurt!
[05:59] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Prince, your time improved again!
[06:06] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Don't you feel like practice is fun?
[06:09] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah.
[06:10] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I guess it's because we went through
    that hellish Lake Shirakaba experience.
[06:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We're really running, aren't we?
[06:17] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Maybe we'll run right past
    Hakone all the way to Mt. Fuji.
[06:23] Prince
    There's nothing everyone else
    can do that you can't do.
[06:27] Prince
    Fight on—
[06:28] King
    What?
[06:30] King
    Eight 5000-meter runs?
[06:33] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    That's practically a full marathon!
[06:35] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    I want to go back to Tokyo!
[06:37] Haiji
    You'll be strong enough
    to run back in another week.

    We'll start by running two laps

    That's about five kilometers.
[07:36] Haiji
    Then we'll head out

[07:48] Haiji
    When we return to the park,
    we'll have run fifteen kilometers.

    My doubts are constantly following me.
[08:45] Haiji
    Should I have imposed
    more rules like a stronger school
[08:48] Haiji
    and forced them to run more?
[08:54] Kakeru
    You can't force a person to run.
[08:57] Kakeru
    The only thing that makes
    a person run is their own will. Right?
[09:01] Haiji
    Yeah.
[09:03] Kakeru
    I was constantly suffering
    when I ran during high school.
[09:08] Kakeru
    I don't ever want to be
    restricted like that again.

    This time, I'll run of my own free will.

    We still have time.
[09:22] Haiji
    Thanks.

[09:31] Haiji
    We have two weeks until the qualifier.
[09:33] Haiji
    It's a battle of concentration now.
[09:36] Haiji
    We'll need to focus and exercise self-control,
[09:40] Haiji
    so we can go into the qualifier
    in top physical and mental shape.
[09:44] Haiji
    There's nothing to be afraid of.
[09:46] Haiji
    We've trained more than enough.
[09:49] Haiji
    We just need to turn that pressure into
    a rasp and polish our minds and bodies.
[09:54] Haiji
    Imagine yourself running as a beautiful
    blade on the day of the qualifier
[09:59] Haiji
    and diligently polish
    yourselves to a fine point.

    We should be like tempered katanas.
[10:10] Prince
    We'll be screwed if we polish too much
    and break before the race, though.
[10:13] Haiji
    That's right.
[10:15] Haiji
    Listen to your minds and bodies
    and polish carefully.
[10:19] Haiji
    Competitions are strange things,
    and I don't just mean long-distance races.
SIGN    Incoming Call Mom
[10:24] Haiji
    You've done the training.
    All that's left is to run.
[10:27] Haiji
    Or so you'd think, but for some
    reason, some runners self-destruct.
[10:32] Haiji
    Most things we call mistakes are the result
    of pressure or weakness of the mind.
[10:38] Haiji
    No matter how much you practice,
[10:40] Haiji
    you can't stop the anxiety
    from rising to the surface.
[10:43] Haiji
    No matter how certain you are,
    you still can't erase your fear of failure.
[10:47] Haiji
    The more you polish something,
    the more fragile it becomes,
[10:51] Haiji
    just as a little bit of dust
    can ruin a delicate machine.
[10:57] Haiji
    So we must find strength.
    Unwavering strength.
[11:03] Haiji
    True strength, so we won't
    be defeated by ourselves!
[11:07] All
    Yeah!
[11:14] Director
    Should you be doing this
    two days before the qualifier?
[11:17] Nico
    This is how we do things.
[11:19] Shindo
    Today is the last day!
[11:21] Shindo
    Tomorrow, we'll sit and wait for the next day!
[11:23] All
    Yeah, yeah!
[11:24] Haiji
    It's time for a message from our coach.
[11:27] Tazaki
    Who? Me?
[11:28] Tazaki
    In that case...
[11:30] Tazaki
    I'll share my secret to success.
[11:35] Jota
    Finally!
[11:36] Joji
    The coach removes the veil!
[11:41] Tazaki
    Alternate using your left and right feet.
[11:44] Tazaki
    Do that, and you'll eventually
    arrive at the finish line.
[11:48] Haiji
    Thank you.
[11:51] All
    That's all?!
[11:53] King
    When are you going
    to start acting like a coach?
[11:57] Musa
    Wait! Please wait!
[11:59] Musa
    Wait!
[12:06] Musa
    He's asleep.
[12:08] Haiji
    What do you think, though?
[12:09] Haiji
    You can't say it didn't feel like
    it would be no exaggeration
[12:13] Haiji
    to say he spoke the truth.
[12:16] Nico
    What the hell are you trying to say?
[12:20] King
    What is it? A girl?
[12:21] Yuki
    Sorry.
[12:23] King
    Just how carefree are you?
[12:31] Haiji
    Kakeru, could you bring up
    some ice from downstairs?
[12:34] Kakeru
    Okay.
[12:37] Yuki
    This has nothing to do with you.
[12:39] Yuki
    Why are you calling now?
[12:42] Yuki
    You're bothering me. I want to focus.
[12:45] Yuki
    Bye.
[12:58] Yuki
    My parents saw the paper.
[13:00] Kakeru
    Oh.

    I haven't seen them in a while.

    Don't embarrass us.
[13:26] All
    We won't!
[13:50] Joji
    Hey!
[13:51] Joji
    Today, we're taking our first step
    towards winning the Hakone Ekiden!
[13:56] Kakeru
    Win? Win?!
[14:21] King
    Hey, is he a regular now?
[14:24] King
    Isn't he a first-year?
[14:25] Kakeru
    That doesn't matter today.
[14:28] King
    I see. I guess not.
[14:32] King
    You can't help but look
    at the cheerleaders, huh?
[14:40] Kakeru
    Yeah.
[14:43] Hanako
    Haiji said they'd make it if their
    combined time was less than 10:12:00.
[14:48] Plasterer
    That's just over an hour per person.
[14:52] Butcher
    Isn't it over 20 km?
[14:54] Butcher
    A full marathon takes over two hours.
[14:57] Butcher
    They'll have to run like professionals.
[14:59] Yaokatsu
    That's just over three minutes per kilometer.
[15:02] Yaokatsu
    There they are.
[15:05] Haiji
    As you can see, there are no landmarks.
    It'll be tough to judge your distance.
[15:10] Haiji
    The weather's poor, and we
    don't know how the race will go,
[15:13] Haiji
    but don't get dragged along by
    runners recklessly charging ahead.
[15:16] Haiji
    Kakeru and I will run in front.
[15:18] Haiji
    Stay together and maintain
    your own pace in the beginning.
[15:22] Haiji
    By the time we finish
    one lap around the airstrip,
[15:24] Haiji
    a lot of guys should start to fall behind.
[15:30] Haiji
    I'll be sending signals during the race.
[15:33] Haiji
    Don't lose sight of each other.
[15:37] Haiji
    I'm glad.
[15:39] Haiji
    I'm glad it's the ten of us.
[15:42] Haiji
    We wouldn't be here
    if anyone had been missing.
[15:44] Yuki
    Don't make it sound like
    the final episode of something.
[15:46] Joji
    This is the starting line.
[15:49] Haiji
    You're right.
[15:51] Yaokatsu
    There are different numbers
    of guys wearing uniforms.
[15:54] Plasterer
    I was wondering about that, too.
[15:56] Plasterer
    They've got more than ten guys.
[15:58] Hanako
    A team can register up to
    fourteen runners for the qualifier.
[16:03] Hanako
    Then they'll reduce their numbers
    to twelve based on their physical condition.
[16:07] Butcher
    What? So they calculate your total time
    based on your ten fastest runners?
[16:13] Hanako
    Yeah. Teams with lots of runners
    have two runners as insurance.
[16:18] Yaokatsu
    So this is what they call a numbers game.
[16:21] Hanako
    It also means Kansei is finished
    if a single one of their runners
[16:25] Hanako
    doesn't make it to the finish line.
[16:30] Hanako
    It's okay. They'll all come back.
[16:33] Hanako
    I know it.
[16:44] Kakeru
    Prince.
[16:46] Kakeru
    I'll do it.

    Let's aim for the top together!
[20:16] Jota
    He says it all the time.
[20:17] Jota
    And each time, I've thought, “yeah!”
[20:20] Kakeru
    And?
[20:22] Joji
    When he says top, do you think
    he means winning the race?
[20:28] Jota
    Our total time was 10:16:43.
[20:33] Jota
    Tokyo Sport, the top finisher in the qualifier,
[20:35] Jota
    was more than seven minutes faster.
[20:38] Joji
    Just how fast are the teams
    that win the Hakone Ekiden?
[20:43] Jota
    Can we reach that level through practice?
[20:49] Jota
    Kakeru, what are we running for?

[03:13] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We're playing soccer with

    Cancel your plans.
[03:18] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    What? But they won't have enough players.
[03:20] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    We'd be inconveniencing them.
[03:21] Haiji
    There's still time. Find some substitutes.

    against strong runners from strong schools
[15:46] Haiji
    is how an athlete should be
    and is a reason to run.

    But is he right?

    It's true that we need every one of us.
    There's no arguing that.

    I'm sure those who empathize
    with us will follow.

    and run as hard as I can right now.
[16:15] Haiji
    So there's no need to respond to him.
[16:18] Haiji
    All we can do is acknowledge his points
    and move forward despite them.

    I don't know.

    Haiji has spent on it,
[17:51] Hanako
    our next two months will fly by in a moment.
[17:57] Hanako
    And that moment could change your life,
[18:00] Hanako
    even if you don't understand
    anything right now.
[18:03] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    You're right.
[18:04] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    The last six months flew by, too.
[18:07] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    A lot has happened.
[18:08] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    The qualifier, the training camp,
    all the track meets.
[18:11] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    And we met Hana.
[18:14] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    She's been a huge help,
    like when Haiji collapsed.
[18:18] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Oh, yeah. I remember that.
[18:20] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    And she always comes to our practices.
[18:22] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Yeah. She's a huge help.
[18:23] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    Without Hana, we wouldn't have made it this far.
[18:25] Twin (Jota or Joji)
    And she's cute.
[18:31] Shindo
    Hey.
[18:32] Shindo
    Where did Haiji go?
[18:35] Prince
    Huh?
[18:36] Prince
    You're asking me?
[18:39] Shindo
    I wanted to discuss the roadside
    placement of our members.
[18:42] Shindo
    Oh, and the university's
    asking us to turn in our forms.
[18:46] Shindo
    Whatever. Sorry to have bothered you.
[18:50] Prince
    That was close.
[18:52] Prince
    I almost asked if he wanted my help.
[19:00] Musa
    It's shocking to know we can't win.
[19:06] Musa
    But I was saved by Haiji's words.
[19:10] Musa
    All we can do right now
    is run as hard as we can.

    No. I agree.
[19:23] Kakeru
    But it's frustrating.
[19:27] Kakeru
    Sakaki made Jota and Joji anxious,
[19:32] Kakeru
    but the only thing I can do is run.
[19:34] Musa
    You're hard on yourself.

    People have always dealt with that criticism.
[00:47] Kazuma
    There are two reasons

[00:50] Kazuma
    First, there's the logic that recruiting
    an exchange student is unfair.
[00:56] Kazuma
    What about the Olympics then?
[00:58] Kazuma
    It's only natural that there's some
    difference in individual physical ability.
[01:02] Kazuma
    Moreover, sports are fair and impartial.
[01:08] Kazuma
    Those who question its
    fairness don't understand
[01:11] Kazuma
    what it means to compete
    in the same sport on the same stage.

[15:30] Haiji
    First, section one. Prince.
[15:33] Prince
    What?
[15:35] Prince
    Are you trying to throw the race?
[15:37] Haiji
    I can't imagine anyone else
    running section one.
[15:40] Haiji
    You're the only one who can
    stand there so calmly
[15:42] Haiji
    that you seem almost oblivious,
    even with all that attention on you.
[15:45] Nico
    Is that a compliment?
[15:47] Haiji
    Naturally, I'm not throwing the race.
[15:50] Haiji
    I made this line-up to win.
[15:52] Yuki
    Are you sure?
[15:53] Yuki
    There have been a lot of fast-paced
    developments the past few years.
[15:58] Haiji
    It's possible this year will be
    slow-paced in response to that.
[16:02] Haiji
    Even if Prince falls behind,
    we'll get it back in section two.
[16:08] Haiji
    Musa, that's your job.
[16:16] King
    Seriously?
[16:18] Shindo
    You can do it, Musa.
[16:20] Musa
    H-Hold on! Kakeru should run that section.
[16:24] Musa
    Right, Kakeru? Right?
[16:26] Haiji
    You heard him.
[16:28] Kakeru
    You can run ten kilometers
    in about twenty-nine minutes.
[16:33] Kakeru
    That's on par with other runners.
[16:36] Kakeru
    But more than that,
[16:38] Kakeru
    you've been the most considerate and
    encouraging towards the rest of the team.
[16:42] Kakeru
    I can't imagine anyone but you running it.
[16:44] Haiji
    That was my thinking, too.
[16:47] Musa
    Oh, no!
[16:51] Haiji
    Section three, Jota.
[16:54] Haiji

[17:16] Haiji
    Section six, Yuki.
[17:17] Yuki
    Hey, wait!
[17:18] Yuki
    I'm section six? That's ridiculous.
[17:21] Haiji
    I've watched how all of you run
    for the past ten months.
[17:25] Haiji
    Your core strength and stable
    center of gravity are the best, Yuki.
[17:29] Haiji

    Section eight, King.
[17:41] King
    Just like I expected.
[17:43] Nico
    You were wrong at Musa.
[17:46] Haiji
    At this point, the runners
    will start to scatter.
[17:49] Haiji
    You might be running alone.
[17:52] Haiji
    The race for seeds will become intense
    during these two important sections.
[17:55] Haiji
    I know you'll be able to stay
    calm and maintain your pace.
[18:00] King
    You're trying to earn a seeded spot?
[18:02] Haiji
    Of course. That's why those
    sections are important.
[18:06] Haiji
    The return half's section two,
    section nine, Kakeru.
[18:14] Musa
    I don't see Fujioka.
[18:17] Haiji
    By last-minute registration, if Rikudo's
    Fujioka isn't signed up for the first half,
[18:23] Haiji
    we'll know Rikudo's strategy
    is to wait out the first half
[18:26] Haiji
    and attack during the second.
[18:29] Haiji
    Which means...
[18:31] Kakeru
    Bring it on.
[18:35] Haiji
    Finally, section ten.
[18:36] Haiji
    I'll take responsibility
    by finishing the race.

    The same goes for dieting
    and quitting smoking.

    I think you'd be better at a throwing event.
[14:06] Nico
    It's not his fault.
[14:09] Nico
    He said that because he'd been
    observing me carefully.

    Since the numbers decide the race,
    it's only natural that body type matters.
