[00:28] ---
    What's got into you, Rintaro?
[00:30] ---
    What's got into you, Rintaro?
[00:31] ---
    My mom...
[00:32] ---
    --Huh?
    --My mom came to watch me play.
[00:34] ---
    --My mom came to watch me play.
[00:35] ---
    Your mom?
[00:37] ---
    The one who gave birth to me.
[00:39] ---
    Your birth mother?!
[00:40] ---
    No, forget it.
[00:42] ---
    Wh-What do you mean?
[00:46] ---
    We've gotta get back to Toma and Maki's match!
[00:55] ---
    I can't choose what is reflected in my eye
[01:08] ---
    Even now, its afterimage clings to my heart
[01:20] ---
    Dying all in crimson, the setting sun
    makes today a part of the past

[01:33] ---
    The brand-new morning is yet unseen,
    the night, filled with darkness, become deeper

[01:44] ---
    Endure even the cold night wind
[01:47] ---
    Although I'm no longer so weak

    The Itsuse brothers... They're too good!
[01:59] ---
    "Episode 12"
[01:59] ---
    The Itsuse brothers... They're too good!
[02:01] ---
    This is what being no match for someone is like.
[02:01] ---
    This is what being no match for someone is like.
[02:04] ---
    What the heck! You're already giving up?!
[02:06] ---
    The match just barely started, you blockheads!
[02:09] ---
    S-Sorry!
[02:11] ---
    R-Right, it's those two.
[02:12] ---
    That's right! They're damn good, too!
[02:15] ---
    Toma and Maki can pull off something!
[02:19] ---
    Go, go, Shijo!
[02:20] ---
    Go, go, Toma! Go, go, Maki!
[02:23] ---
    Seeing how this is a bonus stage,
    they can just take it easy.
[02:31] ---
    Incredible. So that's what a champion's like.
[02:34] ---
    We couldn't even return the ball to their side.
[02:38] ---
    Is this it then?
[02:40] ---
    Isn't it too early to give up?
    It's only been one game.
[02:44] ---
    Then what do you suppose we do?
[02:46] ---
    Who knows?
[02:54] ---
    It sure is getting hot today.
[02:56] ---
    I don't want to wear myself out
    in this match, so let's end it quick.
[03:02] ---
    "Game 2"
[03:09] ---
    Fault!
[03:11] ---
    Don't worry!
[03:12] ---
    Shit, am I too nervous?
[03:26] ---
    "Shijo Minami" "Shiratori"
    "Shinjo/Katsuragi 0 - 1 Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora)"
[03:29] ---
    Toma, don't get flustered.
[03:32] ---
    Just play like usual.
[03:34] ---
    Like usual?
[03:36] ---
    Yup. Like usual.
[03:42] ---
    0-1!
[03:43] ---
    Those guys...
[03:55] ---
    They want to avoid me? In that case...
[04:03] ---
    "Shijo Minami" "Shiratori"
    "Shinjo/Katsuragi 0 - 2 Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora)"
[04:05] ---
    They'll getcha if you
    take 'em lightly. Go figure.
[04:09] ---
    Maki, don't worry.
[04:11] ---
    Got it. Let's keep it up.
[04:18] ---
    "Shijo Minami" "Shiratori"
    "Shinjo/Katsuragi 0 - 3 Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora)"
[04:27] ---
    Out!
[04:27] ---

[04:31] ---
    In the blink of an eye...
[04:32] ---
    They're down two games now.
[04:34] ---
    How's the match going?!
[04:37] ---
    Where'd the hell you two go?!
[04:39] ---
    Sorry.
[04:40] ---
    You're kidding me! They only need one more win?!
[04:43] ---
    It hasn't even been ten minutes!
[04:46] ---
    They're just too good.
[04:47] ---
    They're in a different league!
[04:49] ---
    That's not true! I don't think
    those two have given up yet!
[04:54] ---
    Even if we land our hits, we can't win.
    They're champions after all.
[04:58] ---
    Especially since it hasn't even been
    three months since I started playing.
[05:03] ---
    But I don't want to go out in just three games.
[05:06] ---
    Since we've come this far,
    I kinda want it to last.
[05:10] ---
    Shall we?
[05:12] ---
    Let's do it.
[05:13] ---
    What a letdown.
[05:15] ---
    He's nothing like Ryoma Shinjo.
[05:18] ---
    Is this all his little brother's got?
[05:21] ---
    What a tragedy of a brother.
[05:27] ---
    The cicadas are singing.
[05:30] ---
    In just four more serves...
[05:36] ---
    It's over.
[05:38] ---
    "Game 3"
[05:47] ---
    Their front's fallen back, too?
[06:02] ---
    Their hits feel heavy for once.
[06:04] ---
    Hang in there!
[06:05] ---
    You think they got used to
    the speed of their hits?
[06:13] ---
    What's he doing against these small fries?
[06:16] ---
    Huh?
[06:25] ---
    I've just gotta run! Run!
[06:31] ---
    I started playing soft tennis
    under three months ago.
[06:34] ---
    Whether I play front or back,
    it's all the same to me.
[06:38] ---
    So our strength is being able to
    change positions on a whim.
[06:43] ---
    If it surprises them and catches 'em off guard,
[06:46] ---
    that might be our chance.
[07:01] ---
    Run!
[07:05] ---
    Run!
[07:08] ---
    That's just like us!
[07:09] ---
    Keep running!
[07:13] ---
    These amateurs!
[07:17] ---
    --Yeah!
    --Woohoo!
[07:23] ---
    "Shiratori" "Shijo Minami"
    "Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora) 0 - 1 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[07:24] ---
    0-1!
[07:28] ---
    They piss me off!
[07:45] ---
    --Awesome!
    --Nice one!
[07:48] ---
    They scored again?
[07:49] ---
    Against the twins?
[07:50] ---
    That was nice return there!
[07:54] ---
    Nice volley!
[07:55] ---
    Nice return!
[07:56] ---
    "Shiratori" "Shijo Minami"
    "Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora) 0 - 2 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[07:56] ---
    0-2!
[08:00] ---
    These guys are bloody annoying!
[08:05] ---
    Let!

    "Shiratori" "Shijo Minami"
    "Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora) 0 - 3 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[08:16] ---
    Double fault!
[08:21] ---
    Oh, yeah!
[08:22] ---
    You got this!
[08:23] ---
    Lucky!
[08:24] ---
    It wasn't luck!
[08:25] ---
    Huh?
[08:26] ---
    The Itsuse brothers are showing them respect!
[08:29] ---
    No, they're afraid! That they might lose!
[08:34] ---
    Just one more... point!
[08:38] ---
    What the hell's my problem?!
[08:40] ---
    Against these guys?!
[08:50] ---
    Shit!
[08:52] ---

[08:56] ---
    --Woohoo!
    --Yeah!
[08:57] ---
    Oh, yeah!
[08:59] ---
    They got one! They won!
[09:01] ---
    They won a game!
[09:02] ---
    Yes! Beat those champs!
[09:05] ---
    They really won a game?
[09:07] ---
    Seriously? They're not even contenders!
[09:10] ---
    Are they actually that good?
[09:13] ---
    We got this, Maki!
[09:14] ---
    I'm only getting started!
[09:18] ---
    That was a fluke.
[09:19] ---
    This idiot... What's he doing?
[09:22] ---
    "Game 4"
[09:25] ---
    They gave it even more speed?
[09:27] ---
    You chumps have no right
    to invade on our domain!
[09:34] ---
    What?! Now their hits feel even heavier!
[09:46] ---
    They're pressuring us now?!
[09:51] ---
    Shit!
[09:52] ---
    Out!
[09:53] ---
    "Shijo Minami" "Shiratori"
    "Shinjo/Katsuragi 1 - 0 Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora)"
[09:55] ---
    --Woohoo!
    --Whoa!
[09:58] ---
    Hey! Those guys losing yet?
[10:01] ---
    Shove it!
[10:04] ---
    Hey! C'mon!
[10:06] ---
    Huh? They actually scored some points?
[10:09] ---
    They got another.
[10:10] ---
    Their hits are overwhelming the Itsuse brothers.
[10:13] ---
    Yeah. That team has had some awesome returns.
[10:16] ---
    If they win this time,
    it's 2-2 and a final game?!
[10:20] ---
    No way, right?
[10:22] ---
    Sora, stop screwing this up.
[10:24] ---
    Excuse me, Riku?
    This is because you couldn't finish it!
[10:29] ---
    Again.
[10:31] ---
    I know.

    This isn't a fairy tale, right?!
[11:43] ---
    It's a miracle.
[11:44] ---
    Man, they're doing pretty good!
[12:04] ---
    You can't... be serious.
[12:07] ---
    A final game at regional prelims?
[12:11] ---
    The Itsuse brothers are in a final game?!
[12:14] ---
    Against Shijo Minami?!
[12:16] ---
    I thought it was their girls' club
    that was good!
[12:19] ---
    Just watch 'em play though! They're incredible!
[12:24] ---
    It's a final game.
[12:25] ---
    Yeah. Let's enjoy it.
[12:27] ---
    We should.
[12:28] ---
    Toma, soft tennis sure is fun.
[12:32] ---
    For real. To think it was this much fun.
[12:42] ---
    This is our domain.
[12:47] ---
    This is our...
[12:49] ---
    ...domain.
[12:54] ---
    "Final Game"
[13:05] ---
    No...
[13:06] ---
    This is their domain.

    "Shiratori" "Shijo Minami"
    "Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora) 0 - 1 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[13:11] ---
    They scored.

    Yeah, they're ahead!
[13:14] ---
    Nice return.
[13:15] ---
    Shit, how can this be?!
[13:24] ---

[13:29] ---
    Double fault!

    "Shiratori" "Shijo Minami"
    "Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora) 0 - 2 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[13:30] ---
    Change server!
[13:33] ---
    The Itsuse brothers are struggling.
[13:35] ---
    In the regional prelims?
[13:37] ---
    Unbelievable.
[13:51] ---
    G-O go, go, go, go, go, Toma!
    Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, Maki!
[13:57] ---
    G-O go, go, go, go, go, Toma!
    Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, Maki...
[14:09] ---
    Hmph. Now the audience is on their side.
[14:14] ---
    "Shijo Minami" "Shiratori"
    "Shinjo/Katsuragi 3 - 0 Itsuse (Riku)/ltsuse (Sora)"
[14:15] ---
    --Yeah!
    --Woohoo!
[14:26] ---
    Why... are we?
[14:32] ---
    Riku...
[14:45] ---
    Riku!
[14:46] ---
    H-Huh?
[14:51] ---
    Ouch!
[14:54] ---
    Concentrate, Riku!
[14:58] ---
    Right...
[15:01] ---
    Riku, hit me back.
[15:07] ---
    Another slap?
[15:08] ---
    Good thing we've got the same face.
[15:11] ---
    I can tell how hideous I look
    without even using a mirror.
[15:17] ---
    I got too into it.
[15:22] ---
    Let's finish this.
[15:23] ---
    Okay.
[15:26] ---
    This can't be good.

    The Itsuse brothers calmed down.

[16:10] ---
    The heck! Now they've fallen behind!
[16:12] ---
    Hang in there, Toma! You've got this, Maki!
[16:17] ---
    --What now?
    --Hmm...
[16:19] ---
    Give it our best?
[16:21] ---
    I think they finally got serious.
[16:23] ---
    Good. We made the champions play for real.
[16:27] ---
    I guess that's true.
    Us, against the Itsuse brothers...
[16:32] ---
    Is it that funny?
[16:34] ---
    It is.
[16:35] ---
    It kinda is.
[16:43] ---
    They're laughing about something.
[16:45] ---
    What could be so funny?
[16:47] ---
    They're having fun.
[16:49] ---
    Yeah. It sure looks like they are.

[17:44] ---
    With a game score of 3-2,
    Shiratori's Riku Itsuse/Sora Itsuse pair wins.
[17:52] ---
    Huh?
[17:55] ---
    You two make a good pair.
[17:58] ---
    It's been a while since
    I felt like that in a game.
[18:01] ---
    I'll remember you, Maki Katsuragi.
[18:04] ---
    Toma Shinjo, I'm looking forward to
    the next time we play.
[18:09] ---
    Thank you.
[18:11] ---
    I hope we get a chance to play again.
[18:18] ---
    Woohoo!
[18:22] ---
    Whoa!
[18:27] ---
    Um, hey! Let's not get too excited now.
[18:30] ---
    You won't be able to sleep tonight.
[18:34] ---
    Look at how happy they are to lose. What idiots.
[18:49] ---
    "Ryoma"
[18:50] ---
    Ryoma even said he'd come to watch.
[18:51] ---
    Ryoma even said he'd come to watch.
[18:56] ---
    Next up, team tourney!
[18:57] ---
    Oh, yeah. I can't wait for the team tournament!
[19:01] ---
    The match was amazing, too...
[19:05] ---
    Ryoma, what's up? Get this--
[19:08] ---
    Who is this?
[19:09] ---
    Mom?
[19:12] ---
    Toma? Ryoma must have forgot his cellphone.
[19:15] ---
    O-Oh...
[19:18] ---
    He wasn't in time for my match.
[19:21] ---
    Tell him if you see him.
[19:23] ---
    What a silly boy.
[19:26] ---
    Mom.
[19:28] ---
    Mom, listen to this.
[19:31] ---
    What?
[19:32] ---
    I won the match!
[19:34] ---
    The soft tennis match... I won!
[19:38] ---
    I see. Well, good for you.
[19:42] ---
    Uh, but we did lose in the end.
[19:45] ---
    But you tried your best, Toma.
[19:49] ---
    Mom, um... From now on--
[19:52] ---
    I tried my best, too.
[19:55] ---
    Huh?
[19:58] ---
    I finally can be honest with my feelings now.
[20:01] ---
    I don't have to hold it in.
    I don't have to suffer.
[20:07] ---
    What?
[20:09] ---
    I'm getting divorced.
[20:13] ---
    You'll be living together with
    your father from now on.
[20:18] ---
    I'm going to live together with Ryoma.
[20:21] ---
    Why?
[20:25] ---
    Because I hate it!
[20:27] ---
    I hate having to deal with
    what torments me more than anything--you.
[20:34] ---
    Goodbye, Toma.
[20:48] ---
    Toma!
[20:52] ---
    Toma.
[21:18] ---
    I'm home!
[21:22] ---
    What's this? You here, Shou?
[21:25] ---
    Today's match...
[21:29] ---
    Huh?
[21:31] ---
    What the?
[21:32] ---
    That's dangerous!
[21:36] ---
    Shou?
[21:40] ---
    Maki...
[21:45] ---
    Shou, where's my mom?
[22:01] ---
    Welcome.
[22:03] ---
    It's 300 yen.
