**[00:03] Tsuji**
England?
**[00:05] Kohei**
I'm sorry, Shoot.
**[00:08] Kohei**
But I'll come back!
**[00:11] Kohei**
I'll come back to you!
**[00:15] Kohei**
Shoot!
**[00:18] Kohei**
And then we can run together, okay?
**[00:22] Kohei**
We can play soccer again.
**[00:26] Players**
Okay! Go! Go!
**[00:29] Kohei**
Me, too! Me, too!
**[00:32] Kohei**
Why?
**[00:33] Kohei**
Let me join in, too!
**[00:36] Kohei**
Me, too! Me, too!
**[00:41] Players**
Nobody wants to play soccer with you.
**[00:47] Players**
Hey, you!
**[00:48] Players**
What's this crap about the
team working together?
**[00:50] Players**
You mean you want everybody
else to do all the work?
**[00:54] Kohei**
*Maybe... Maybe I'll quit soccer...*
**[01:02] Tsuji**
Just one point, right?
**[01:04] Tsuji**
If I don't give up, it'll work out!
**[01:09] Kohei**
Yeah!
**[01:11] Kohei**
But... even though I didn't give up...
**[01:16] Kohei**
Why won't you come after me, Shoot?
**[01:19] Kohei**
Come on, let's run!
**[01:22] Kohei**
Let's aim for the goal together again, okay?
**[01:26] Tsuji**
I...
**[01:29] Kohei**
Shoot!
**[01:31] Sonoda**
Shut up!
**[01:32] Kohei**
Shoot's not coming after me...
**[01:33] Tsuji**
Kohei...
**[01:35] Kohei**
Shoot's not coming after me...
**[01:38] Tsuji**
Kohei...
**[01:40] Kohei**
Shoot's not...
**[01:45] Kohei**
Shoot...
**[01:48] Tsuji**
Kohei, I actually... quit...
**[01:52] Kohei**
Liar...
**[01:54] Kohei**
Liar...
**[01:56] Kohei**
Liar...
**[01:58] Kohei**
Liar!
**[02:07] Tsuji**
That's five points.
**[02:09] Kazama**
Shimizu Academy's getting destroyed.
**[02:12] Namioka**
Shimizu made it all the way
**[02:15] Namioka**
to the quarterfinals this year with
only one point scored against them.
**[02:18] Kurokawa**
Kokubo's throwing them off
their game all by himself.
**[02:28] Hikida**
Hazawa, Furuse!
**[02:30] Hazawa**
Nice!
**[02:38] Hikida**
Get back!
**[02:39] Hazawa**
Can he teleport or something?
**[02:44] Hikida**
The way he's passing...
**[02:46] Kurokawa**
That's the same formation Shimizu
was using in the first half!
**[02:51] Hikida**
Stop him! Stop him!
**[02:53] Hikida**
They're using our formation!
**[02:55] Hikida**
Stop him!
**[02:57] Kohei**
*I won't stop.*
**[02:58] Kohei**
*I always make the game by myself.*
**[03:01] Kohei**
*That's how I've always won.*
**[03:11] Hikida**
Kokubo!
**[03:15] Kohei**
You're not getting through.
**[03:31] Goalie**
Damn it! Damn it!
**[03:36] Kurokawa**
What's wrong?
**[03:38] Tsuji**
His face never used to look like that.
**[03:43] Tsuji**
He used be more, I don't know...
**[03:47] Tsuji**
*He was...*
***SIGN*** Aloof
**[05:26] Namioka**
Kokubo hasn't taken a single shot
on goal in any of his games...
**[05:32] Kazama**
But he's involved in every point they score.
**[05:35] Namioka**
He's got complete control over where Matsukata,
with his incredible ball control,
**[05:40] Namioka**
and Hattori, with his striking power, end up.
**[05:44] Atsushi**
Nomada never gives their
opponents an chance to react.
**[05:48] Atsushi**
They control the game and win.
**[05:51] Atsushi**
They're the undisputed rulers of the field.
**[05:53] Atsushi**
No normal team can stand up to them.
**[05:56] Atsushi**
But that's also what makes them vulnerable.
**[05:59] Sonoda**
It's Kokubo that's the issue.
**[06:02] Sonoda**
If we can lock him down...
**[06:03] Kazama**
But the way he moves is unbelievable!
**[06:06] Matsuhashi**
He's completely unpredictable!
**[06:07] Kurokawa**
But Kokubo himself probably knows
exactly how he's going to move.
**[06:12] Kurokawa**
Tsuji gives us orders that change
based on the flow of the game,
**[06:17] Kurokawa**
but Kokubo looked like he was guiding
the other players along a route
**[06:20] Kurokawa**
he already had in his head.
**[06:23] Kurokawa**
It's like he drew a plan on the
field that led straight to the goal.
**[06:28] Tsuji & Kazama**
A plan...
**[06:30] Kurokawa**
Yeah.
**[06:31] Kurokawa**
He's always two steps ahead
of where the ball goes.
**[06:34] Kurokawa**
He may go in the opposite
direction of the ball at first,
**[06:38] Kurokawa**
but the ball always ends up
where Kokubo thinks it will.
**[06:44] Kurokawa**
I can't move like that...
**[06:46] Atsushi**
Kurokawa, there's no need for
you to become Kohei Kokubo.
**[06:50] Atsushi**
You need to fight Nomada
as Subaru Kurokawa.
**[06:54] Kurokawa**
Yes, sir!
**[06:55] Kazama**
Is there really no way
to beat that guy, though?
**[07:02] Atsushi**
So, what? Are you just going to lose?
**[07:04] Atsushi**
Then nothing will have
**[07:05] Atsushi**
changed since the practice game when
he pulled an eleven-man dodge on you.
**[07:10] Atsushi**
Are you the same Kakegawa
Soccer Team you were then?
**[07:14] All**
No!
**[07:15] Amagai**
We're closer to the goal than we were then!
**[07:18] Atsushi**
That's right!
**[07:19] Atsushi**
Once you have the ball...
**[07:20] All**
Go forward!
**[07:22] Atsushi**
And then...
**[07:23] All**
Get as close to the goal as you can!
**[07:24] Sonoda**
We won't let there be a repeat
of what happened last time!
**[07:27] Sahara**
We'll pull off an eleven-man dodge on them!
**[07:29] Kazama**
We're not gonna lose to Kokubo!
**[07:32] Kurokawa**
This is obvious, but don't
take your eyes off him!
**[07:35] Kazama**
That's it!
**[07:37] Sahara**
It's the only way.
**[07:38] Atsushi**
The way to beat Nomada is to mark Kokubo,
**[07:42] Atsushi**
then throw them off their game!
**[07:44] Matsuhashi**
Throw them off their game?
**[07:46] Atsushi**
That's right!
**[07:47] Atsushi**
Nomada's done the same thing in
every game: get an early lead
**[07:51] Atsushi**
and then destroy their opponents mentally
by building on it in the second half.
**[07:56] Atsushi**
Mess up that plan and the
tide will turn in our favor!
**[08:01] Kazama**
Mess up their plan? How?
**[08:04] Atsushi**
We score the first point!
**[08:06] Atsushi**
We bloody their nose and
break their momentum!
**[08:09] All**
Yeah!
**[08:15] Kurokawa**
Aah, jeez!
**[08:17] Kurokawa**
Stop looking at me, Hideto!
**[08:20] Kurokawa**
We need to use your timing!
**[08:22] Tsuji**
But...
**[08:24] Kurokawa**
I need to get the ball where you want it,
**[08:27] Kurokawa**
or we won't be able to do
the Short Impact shot!
**[08:31] Tsuji**
Okay. I'll let you handle it.
**[08:32] Tsuji**
Match my movements, then.
**[08:35] Kurokawa**
Okay.
**[08:36] Kurokawa**
Jo, do that again.
**[08:38] Sahara**
That's, uh... new.
**[08:40] Sahara**
Is that really Kurokawa?
**[08:42] Sonoda**
He's acting like a drill sergeant.
**[08:45] Kurokawa**
Let's go!
**[08:46] Kurokawa**
* Hideto's shot is the key*
* to getting that first point.*
**[08:51] Kazama**
Subaru!
**[08:53] Kurokawa**
*I need to get it there!*
**[08:55] Kurokawa**
Go!
**[08:57] Kurokawa**
*Too close!*
**[08:58] Kurokawa**
Damn it! Again!
**[09:01] Kazama**
Okay!
**[09:01] Kurokawa**
*Get it there...*
**[09:05] Kurokawa**
*Too far?*
**[09:07] Kurokawa**
Next!
**[09:08] Kazama**
Okay!
**[09:08] Kurokawa**
*How about...*
**[09:10] Kurokawa**
*Here?*
**[09:11] Kurokawa**
Go!
**[09:18] Kazama/Kurokawa/Tsuji**
Yes!
**[09:20] Kazama/Kurokawa/Tsuji**
It worked! It worked!
**[09:21] Kazama**
It worked!
**[09:35] Kohei**
Shoot, here we go!
**[09:44] Kohei**
Shoot, you're amazing!
**[09:45] Goalie**
Damn it! Damn it!
**[09:50] Kohei**
Poor guy.
**[09:52] Tsuji**
There's nothing we can do about it.
**[09:53] Tsuji**
That's how the game works.
**[09:55] Kohei**
Yeah, but...
**[09:58] Tsuji**
*Kohei's so nice.*
**[10:04] Matsukata**
Hey, is that Tsuji?
**[10:06] Matsukata**
Tsuji!
**[10:08] Tsuji**
It was good to talk the other day.
**[10:10] Hattori**
So, your team's ace striker is
here doing some research himself?
**[10:13] Matsukata**
It doesn't bother us.
**[10:20] Tsuji**
Kohei...
**[10:22] Tsuji**
Is soccer fun for you?
**[10:27] Tsuji**
Are you enjoying playing soccer?
**[10:31] Tsuji**
It doesn't feel like the way
I know you play soccer...
**[10:36] Kohei**
It's not your problem.
**[10:39] Tsuji**
But Kohei... Your soccer is...
**[10:42] Kohei**
It's all your fault, Shoot!
**[10:46] Kohei**
What I'm doing now is how I play soccer!
**[10:48] Kohei**
I threw away the soccer I played with you!
**[10:55] Kohei**
You don't know how I felt
when I came back at all!
**[11:01] Kohei**
But even without you,
**[11:04] Kohei**
I'm achieving things! Even by myself!
**[11:07] Tsuji**
Kohei!
**[11:09] Hattori**
What the hell is wrong with you?
**[11:11] Hattori**
Did you come here to pick a fight?
**[11:12] Narumiya**
Are you trying to ruin our
mental game or something?
**[11:15] Matsukata**
Knock it off.
**[11:16] Hattori**
But we've got our game tomorrow...
**[11:18] Kazama**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[11:22] Kazama**
I'm sorry our ace is being such a weirdo!
**[11:26] Matsukata**
Knock it off.
**[11:27] Matsukata**
It's fine. Let's all do our best tomorrow!
**[11:30] Kazama**
Totally! Bye!
**[11:34] Tsuji**
Ow!
**[11:36] Kazama**
I was so nervous! I was really nervous!
**[11:38] Tsuji**
That doesn't make it okay to kick me!
**[11:40] Kazama**
Subaru said you might be
at Nomada and I was like,
**[11:43] Kazama**
"No way!" but I came and
you were actually here!
**[11:47] Kurokawa**
He looked like he was thinking about
something all day in class today,
**[11:50] Kurokawa**
and he left right after practice.
**[11:52] Kazama**
Are you two best buds who can
read each other's minds now?
**[11:54] Kazama**
Let me join in, then!
**[11:57] Tsuji**
Don't be creepy!
**[11:59] Kurokawa**
Hey, Hideto...
**[12:00] Kurokawa**
What did Kokubo mean by that?
**[12:03] Kurokawa**
Where did that come from?
**[12:05] Kohei**
It's all your fault, Shoot!
**[12:07] Kohei**
I threw away the soccer I played with you!
**[12:10] Kohei**
But even without you,
**[12:14] Kohei**
I'm achieving things! Even by myself!
**[12:18] Tsuji**
I have to win.
**[12:20] Kazama**
Of course you do.
**[12:22] Tsuji**
And I need to get back the
soccer I had with Kohei...

**[12:51] Atsushi**
Listen, Kazama...
**[12:53] Atsushi**
We don't play soccer for the
sake of somebody in the past.
**[12:57] Atsushi**
We do it for our own sake.
**[13:02] Kazama**
Dad, we need to talk.
**[13:06] Kids**
There's no point saying sorry.

***SIGN*** Shoot!
**[13:56] Atsushi**
The first time I saw you,
you had the faces of losers.
**[14:02] Atsushi**
But if the me from that day
were to see you now, he'd say,
**[14:08] Atsushi**
"Who are you people?"
**[14:11] Atsushi**
That's how much you've changed!
**[14:15] Atsushi**
I'm proud!
**[14:16] Sahara**
You're making me blush, Coach!
**[14:19] Kazama**
The game hasn't even started!
**[14:21] Atsushi**
Fools.
**[14:23] Atsushi**
I'm proud of myself for training
you into the team you are today.
**[14:29] Sonoda**
So you're just bragging about yourself?
**[14:31] Sahara**
You should be bragging about us!
**[14:34] Matsuhashi**
I guess we couldn't expect that...
**[14:36] Amagai**
I was ready to cry for a minute, too.
**[14:38] Sahara**
There, there.
**[14:39] Kazama**
That kind of makes me mad.
**[14:41] Kurokawa**
Calm down.
**[14:42] Kurokawa**
He's just trying to relax us.
**[14:45] Atsushi**
Go out there and win.
**[14:46] Atsushi**
No... Let's win together!
**[14:48] All**
Yeah!
**[14:53] Ayaka**
Hideto!
**[14:55] Kurokawa's Mom**
Subaru!
**[14:58] Kazama**
Dad!
**[15:00] Kazama**
I'm going to win, so watch me, okay?
**[15:01] Kurokawa/Tsuji**
Is he a little kid?
**[15:04] Atsushi**
Group up!
**[15:06] Atsushi**
Okay, everybody but Sonoda
goes on the attack!
**[15:10] Atsushi**
Put everything you've got into
getting us that first point!
**[15:12] Amagai**
Everybody, follow Tsuji!
**[15:14] Sahara**
They'll be doing all they can to mark him.
**[15:17] Kazama**
Okay, don't let them near Tsuji!
**[15:19] Atsushi**
No. If they want to mark him,
let's give them the opportunity.
**[15:24] Ayaka**
Hideto! Hideto!
**[15:26] Atsushi**
Go!
**[15:27] Atsushi**
You're up against Nomada.
**[15:29] Atsushi**
It might seem like there's more
than eleven of them out there.
**[15:32] Atsushi**
But remember... you've been
outnumbered many times.
**[15:39] Atsushi**
Each of you can play as hard
as two... No, three people!
**[15:44] Tsuji**
*Kohei... I...*
**[15:47] Tsuji**
*It took me time, but... I'm back!*
**[15:52] Tsuji**
*I'm here once more, with my comrades!*
**[15:55] Tsuji**
We'll defeat you and go to nationals!
**[15:58] Kohei**
You can't, Shoot!
**[16:01] Kohei**
Because in front of you is...
**[16:05] Tsuji**
Go!
**[16:06] Tsuji**
Sahara! Matsuhashi!
**[16:08] Tsuji**
Go to both sides!
**[16:09] Hattori**
They're going on the offensive
and leaving #8 behind!
**[16:12] Hattori**
So they opened the path for
their ace striker? But...
**[16:15] Matsukata**
That means he's wide open!
**[16:18] Tsuji**
*Come on! Come!*
**[16:20] Tsuji**
*Kohei!*
**[16:26] Kazama**
Score!
**[16:28] Kurokawa**
Kazama!
**[16:29] Takaida**
#10! Pin down #10!
**[16:33] Kohei**
* Kakegawa always uses the same equation:*
* #7 to #9, then have Shoot go for the goal.*
**[16:39] Kohei**
*But now #7 is going for the goal?*
**[16:43] Kohei**
*Just like I expected!*
**[16:47] Sonoda**
Kokubo's on the move!
**[16:51] Tsuji**
He's coming for me?
**[16:54] Amagai**
Wait! It's too soon, Tsuji!
**[16:57] Tsuji**
Subaru, this way!
**[16:58] Kurokawa**
It's too soon!
**[17:00] Tsuji**
Subaru!
**[17:06] Kurokawa**
Hideto, look around you! At your team!
**[17:09] Kazama**
Why are you running off on your own?
**[17:11] Atsushi**
Tsuji!
**[17:13] Atsushi**
Where did you decide your soccer was?
**[17:16] Tsuji**
My soccer is...
**[17:20] Crowd**
Fight! Do your best!
**[17:23] Kurokawa**
Go!
**[17:23] Tsuji**
With them!
**[17:25] Tsuji**
With my team!
**[17:28] Kohei**
Shoot!
**[17:30] Kohei**
Your movements are giving away the game.
**[17:33] Tsuji**
Kohei, it's just getting started.
**[17:35] Tsuji**
This is where I... where *we*
all open a path forward!
**[17:39] Tsuji**
A path to the goal!
**[17:41] Tsuji**
This is the beginning!
**[17:42] Tsuji**
Subaru!
**[17:44] Matsukata**
What? #9's going straight for the goal?
**[17:46] Narumiya**
#10 was a decoy?
**[17:47] Kohei**
It wasn't Shoot?
**[17:49] Takaida**
What?
**[17:50] Atsushi**
Go!
**[17:52] Kazama**
There we go!
**[17:53] Kohei**
If Shoot's not your attacker,
then it will end with #7 doing a header.
**[17:57] Kurokawa**
*Yeah, that's what you'd think, right?*
**[18:00] Kurokawa**
*But Hideto's plan was...*
**[18:06] Kohei**
#9 is going for it himself?
**[18:08] Takaida**
#10! Kokubo! Get on #10!
**[18:12] Kohei**
Shoot is...
**[18:14] Matsukata**
Open?
**[18:16] Saionji**
No!
**[18:17] Kurokawa**
Hideto!
**[18:29] Kohei**
*No...*
**[18:31] Kohei**
* He did it perfectly,*
* without an assist from me?*
**[18:38] Kurokawa**
Yes!
**[18:39] Kurokawa/Kazama**
Yes! Yes!
**[18:41] Kurokawa/Kazama**
We scored the first point!
**[18:44] Atsushi**
Okay, don't let your guard down!
**[18:47] Atsushi**
Now Nomada will get serious!
**[18:49] Atsushi**
This is when the game begins!
**[18:51] Atsushi**
Be ready!
**[18:54] Amagai**
Get on Kokubo!
**[18:58] Narumiya**
Kakegawa!
**[18:59] Narumiya**
You shouldn't underestimate Nomada by
putting so many players on Kokubo, right?
**[19:06] Tsuji**
Sonoda!
**[19:09] Sonoda**
If we need three players watching Kokubo,
**[19:11] Sonoda**
the others will just do the
work of three extra players.
**[19:14] Sonoda**
That's how Kakegawa plays.
**[19:16] Matsukata**
I'll remember that.
**[19:19] Tsuji**
Be careful!
**[19:20] Tsuji**
Nomada's coming for real!
**[19:23] Tsuji**
Don't let them get the ball!
**[19:24] Tsuji**
Go all-in on defense!
**[19:27] Atsushi**
That's right. All-in on defense.
**[19:30] Atsushi**
Nomada will start to panic. I know it.
**[19:32] Atsushi**
And that's when... you can win!
**[19:35] Narumiya**
What the hell?!
**[19:37] Atsushi**
Okay, that first point
is starting to pay off!
**[19:40] Atsushi**
They may not realize it,
but they'll start to panic!
**[19:45] Nomada Coach**
Keep moving!
**[19:46] Nomada Coach**
With three players on Kokubo,
they'll get tired before we do!
**[19:50] Nomada Coach**
So stay calm!
**[19:51] Matsukata**
Hey! #10! Watch #10!
**[19:54] Sonoda**
Okay!
**[19:56] Atsushi**
This is what we've been waiting for!
**[19:58] Atsushi**
Kurokawa, counter!
**[19:59] Kazama**
Subaru!
**[20:01] Kazama**
Go!
**[20:04] Kurokawa**
Hideto, go!
**[20:06] Tsuji**
Okay, it's going in!
**[20:10] Kohei**
Shoot! That shot's close to
being world-class.
**[20:20] Kohei**
But... I can stop it.
**[20:24] Kohei**
Kakegawa won't be scoring any more points.
**[20:27] Tsuji**
Kohei, you don't get to decide that!
**[20:29] Sonoda**
Tsuji!
**[20:30] Sonoda**
Get back! We'll stop them!
**[20:34] Sonoda**
Kokubo?
**[20:35] Sahara**
What's he doing here?
**[20:36] Sahara**
How is he so fast?
**[20:39] Kohei**
Shoot, you think you can defeat me?
**[20:45] Kohei**
Try it.
**[20:52] Tsuji**
Kohei!
**[20:56] Atsushi**
He's laid down his plan for the goal.
**[20:59] Sahara**
Get on Matsukata and Hattori!
**[21:00] Amagai**
Which is it? Who's coming?
**[21:03] Amagai**
Matsukata! Or Hattori?
**[21:06] Tsuji**
I'll stop Kohei before he can pass!
**[21:10] Amagai**
Here it comes!
**[21:14] Tsuji**
Kohei!
**[21:23] Tsuji**
Kohei went for the shot?

What's gotten into you?
**[21:44] Matsukata**
You never go for the shot.
**[21:46] Kohei**
Matsukata, I'll be the one to crush Kakegawa.
