Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight, Misaki!
[00:06] ---
Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight, Misaki!
[00:07] ---
Win, win, Misaki!
[00:08] ---
Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight,
Misaki! Win, win, Misaki...
[00:12] ---
"Misaki Academy"
[00:12] ---
Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight,
Misaki! Win, win, Misaki...
[00:12] ---
What the hell? Could they be any louder?
[00:16] ---
They've got over 60 members
on the boys' team,
[00:18] ---
"Shijo Minami"
"Boys' Soft Tennis Club"
[00:18] ---
so their first years act as the cheer squad.
[00:21] ---
"Shijo Minami"
[00:21] ---

[00:22] ---
That's disgusting.

[00:24] ---
Mitsue, you might want to
tone down the voice in your head.
[00:27] ---
Mind your own business.
[00:29] ---
Like I said yesterday, we're starting
the matches with Taiyo and Nao.
[00:34] ---
Will we be okay?
[00:35] ---
What if they complain that
we didn't even put up a fight?
[00:39] ---
And what if we can't score a single point?
[00:42] ---
Keep thinking that way and
you'll lose a match you can win.
[00:46] ---
A match they can win?
[00:47] ---
Yuta's been coming here for a week
to scout and gather data for us.
[00:52] ---
Yuta, tell Taiyo and Nao about
the players they're up against.
[00:58] ---
I don't know if it'll be helpful though.
[01:00] ---
Have confidence.
[01:01] ---
Um, you've got back player Kazumi Miwa
and front player Ayumu Ooi.
[01:07] ---
Miwa has an excellent first serve. He has
a quick stroke and can aim his shots well.
[01:12] ---
Ooi can defend a huge area of the net.
[01:15] ---
Their combination is a classic example
of a front and back pair.
[01:20] ---
Basically, count on Miwa
to set the pace of the game.
[01:23] ---
Thanks, Yuta.
[01:25] ---
Point being, it's all about being
able to return the shots from Miwa.
[01:29] ---
There's no way I can keep up against him.
[01:32] ---
Yeah, exactly.
[01:34] ---
Don't say it like that, Katsuragi.
[01:36] ---
That's why.
[01:37] ---
Huh?
[01:38] ---
You're a pair. There's two of you.
[01:41] ---
You know what you've gotta do.
[01:44] ---
Oh, yeah. They can always do that.
[01:46] ---
That's right. We can win.
[01:49] ---
For sure.
[01:50] ---
That's right!
[01:52] ---
We're strong as hell!
[01:55] ---
Me and my little sister came up
with a victory dance!
[01:58] ---
A victory dance?
[02:00] ---
Yeah, raise your right hand and...
Hey, everyone do it!
[02:04] ---
Join us, Yuta!
[02:08] ---
Believe in our victory! Fight!
[02:13] ---
Now you try it!
[02:14] ---
All right! Fight!
[02:16] ---
Whoa! Fight!
[02:19] ---
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
[02:21] ---
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
[02:25] ---
Whoa!
[02:27] ---
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah...
[02:31] ---
Is that a pre-match tradition?
[02:33] ---
Seems that way.
[02:35] ---
It's a dance to bring
grasshopper victory... I guess?
[02:41] ---
Will there ever come a day
when I can forgive myself?
[02:54] ---
Until now, I've been punishing myself,
carrying that burden without saying a word
[03:10] ---
Like a tropical fish thrown into
a fresh-water tank
[03:23] ---
It's waving its tail fin,
but it's not as if it's swimming
[03:33] ---
Just floundering as it drowns
[03:36] ---
Faintly heard from the distant sea
[03:40] ---
The crashing waves are not some dream
[03:44] ---
And if with my ears I listen carefully
[03:52] ---
I can hear the whales
singing together a song of joy
[04:03] ---
"Stars Align"
I can hear the whales
singing together a song of joy
[04:05] ---
"Stars Align"
[04:11] ---
--Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight,
Misaki! Win, win, Misaki!
[04:11] ---
"Episode 6"
[04:12] ---
--Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight,
Misaki! Win, win, Misaki!
--Argh, damn stiff neck.
[04:14] ---
--Go, go, Misaki! Fight, fight,
Misaki! Win, win, Misaki!
--Hey, you guys understand?
[04:15] ---
--Go, go, Misaki...
--Hey, you guys understand?
[04:16] ---
Don't you worry, Arashi.
We won't give up a single point.
[04:20] ---
Playing those guys isn't even
a warm-up. It's more like a stretch.
[04:26] ---
Shoot!
[04:31] ---
Face-up. It's our pick.
[04:34] ---
You can serve. We want this side.
[04:40] ---
I feel loose thanks to that dance.
[04:43] ---
I don't feel so nervous anymore.
[04:46] ---
You've got this, Nao! Taiyo!
[04:48] ---
Serving side: Shijo Minami's
Ishigami/Tsukinose pair.
[04:52] ---
Receiving side: Misaki Academy's Miwa/Ooi pair.
[04:55] ---
It's a five-game match. Play ball!
[05:01] ---
Come on, bring it.
[05:11] ---
Hmm? Not a bad serve...
[05:14] ---
Shit!
[05:17] ---
There!
[05:20] ---
Huh? They're both playing back?
[05:27] ---
Shoot!
[05:31] ---
Th-They got a point.
[05:32] ---
Unbelievable.
[05:33] ---
Awesome!
[05:38] ---
Tsk!
[05:41] ---
I-It was just a fluke.
[05:43] ---
Uh, 1-0!
[05:50] ---
Not again! Shit!
[05:55] ---
Their front fell back for a rally battle.
[05:57] ---
And they're surprisingly good at it, too.
[06:07] ---
--Another point!
--Hell yeah!
--Yeah!
--Woohoo!
[06:09] ---
Hey! It's bad manners to cause a scene!
[06:12] ---
Your kids are sure giving it their best today.
[06:17] ---
Yeah they are.
[06:18] ---
--Bravery!
--Lively!
[06:20] ---
Victory!
[06:21] ---
Dammit!
[06:26] ---
2-0!
[06:33] ---
Damn lefties!
[06:54] ---
These Shijo Minami clowns!
[06:58] ---
Out!
[07:00] ---
What an idiot.
[07:01] ---
Hey, hit the ball!
[07:02] ---
I can't volley when they lob like that!
[07:05] ---
You could if you moved for once!
[07:07] ---
I am moving!
[07:08] ---
What are they doing?
[07:10] ---
This isn't the time to fight.
[07:12] ---
Bravery! Lively! Victory!
[07:19] ---
There!
[07:23] ---
Out! Change sides!
[07:25] ---
They're both idiots.
[07:27] ---
We did it! We won a game versus Misaki!
[07:30] ---
Hell yeah!
[07:31] ---
Yay!
[07:32] ---
Even if it's a fluke, that's amazing.
[07:34] ---
We won?! We really won?!
[07:37] ---
Yeah, yeah!
[07:37] ---
So it's over? We won the match?
[07:40] ---
Not quite. It means we won one game.
[07:43] ---
Really? Didn't they say it's
a five-game match? How do you win?
[07:49] ---
If you score four points,
it means you win a game.
[07:52] ---
In a five-game match, the team that
wins three games first wins the match.
[07:57] ---
So we've gotta win three then.
[07:59] ---
Yeah. You have to win the majority.
If it's a three-game match, you win with two.
[08:04] ---
Oh? That's a weird way to score.
[08:07] ---
That's how it works in soft tennis.
[08:10] ---
They'll come back in force.
[08:12] ---
Huh?
[08:13] ---
They'll get serious.
[08:16] ---
Sorry.
[08:18] ---
It's okay. Let's reset.
[08:20] ---
All right.
[08:21] ---
We're the better players for sure.
[08:24] ---
I know. I'll play the game right this time.
[08:27] ---
Good. Let's do it.
[08:31] ---
Pull it together.
[08:34] ---
Game score: 0-1!
[08:47] ---
Huh?!
[08:51] ---
Out!
[08:53] ---
What was that?
[08:54] ---
A serve with a slice on it.
[08:57] ---
Play like that from the start.
[09:00] ---
1-0!
[09:08] ---
He slices it from the get-go
with his first serve?
[09:11] ---
He can pull that off?
[09:14] ---
2-0!
[09:18] ---
Again?!
[09:22] ---
Will he slice this next serve?
[09:27] ---
They caught up?
[09:29] ---
They have now.
[09:30] ---
Game score: 1 all!
[09:33] ---

[09:47] ---
Out!
[09:47] ---
"Miwa/Ooi 3 - 0 Ishigami/Tsukinose"
[09:49] ---
They're controlling the game pace.
[09:51] ---
That's a champion school for you.
[09:56] ---
Game, set!
[09:58] ---
With a game score of 3-1,
Misaki Academy's Miwa/Ooi pair wins!
[10:05] ---
Sorry. We tried our best, but--
[10:07] ---
They're just too good.
[10:08] ---
You did great.
[10:10] ---
You had 'em in a total panic at first.
[10:12] ---
Yeah, that formation will be handy.
We can work on perfecting it. Also...
[10:18] ---
Improve our endurance and stamina, right?
[10:21] ---
We'll have to run more often.
[10:23] ---
You guys were amazing!
It was evenly matched in the first half!
[10:28] ---
What are they so happy about? They lost.
[10:31] ---
It was worthwhile. A loss you can
learn and grow from isn't simply a loss.
[10:37] ---
A loss is a loss.
[10:41] ---
Yanagishita, the opponent back player,
serves even faster than Miwa.
[10:46] ---
There's more power in his strokes.
[10:48] ---
The front player, Ikeda, can serve well, too.
[10:51] ---
He positions himself to
bring out Yanagishita's best.
[10:54] ---
They have no weaknesses.
[10:56] ---
In other words, they're just plain good.
[10:59] ---
Serving side: Misaki Academy's
Yanagishita/lkeda pair.
[11:03] ---
Receiving side: Shijo Minami's Futsu/Ameno pair.
[11:06] ---
It's a five-game match. Play ball!
[11:11] ---
It's fast!
[11:18] ---
"Yanagishita/lkeda 1 - 0 Futsu/Ameno"
[11:22] ---
"Yanagishita/lkeda 2 - 0 Futsu/Ameno"
[11:26] ---
"Yanagishita/lkeda 3 - 0 Futsu/Ameno"
[11:31] ---
Out! Game! Change sides!
[11:32] ---
"Game Score"
"Futsu/Ameno 0 - 1 Yanagishita/lkeda"
[11:32] ---
Out! Game! Change sides!
[11:35] ---
We can come back now that we serve.
[11:37] ---
Yeah. We're used to the speed of their hits now.
[11:40] ---
That's right.
[11:42] ---
Compared to the serves
we've seen from Takada,
[11:44] ---
these guys are nothing.
[11:50] ---
Game score: 0-1!
[11:53] ---
Here goes!
[12:00] ---
The left is open!
[12:04] ---
Aw yeah!
[12:05] ---
Nice one!
[12:06] ---
Yeah!
[12:08] ---
1-0!
[12:12] ---
Take this!
[12:13] ---
Mine!
[12:17] ---
Whoops!
[12:20] ---
"Futsu/Ameno 2 - 0 Yanagishita/lkeda"
[12:27] ---
They seem so bad... What gives?
[12:34] ---
"Futsu/Ameno 3 - 0 Yanagishita/lkeda"
[12:39] ---
Game!
[12:40] ---
--Yeah!
--Yeah!
[12:41] ---
They did it! They took a game!
[12:44] ---
Rintaro's on fire.
[12:46] ---
He's good. He might have
the best game sense in our club.
[12:50] ---
Huh?
[12:51] ---
Game score: 1 all!
[12:54] ---
There!
[13:05] ---
Out!
[13:07] ---
These guys are good, that's for sure.
[13:10] ---
The ball feels heavy...
[13:16] ---
Out!
[13:18] ---
With a game score of 3-1, Misaki Academy's
Yanagishita/lkeda pair wins!
[13:23] ---
We won, but...
[13:24] ---
--Again?
--No way.
[13:25] ---
Eh? They took another game
from us? How interesting...
[13:33] ---
Looks like we're up next.
[13:35] ---
Yeah. I'm sick of waiting.
[13:42] ---
It's rare to see those two get so worked up.
[13:48] ---
Taiyo, hold this!
[13:50] ---
H-Heavy!
[13:51] ---
Yuta, what kind of players are we facing?
[13:54] ---
Masato Nagano is their back player
and their front is Takeru Tanaka.
[13:59] ---
They appeared in the
national tournament for Misaki.
[14:01] ---
"Shijo Minami"
"Boys' Soft Tennis Club"
[14:02] ---
All I know is that they're good. Sorry.
[14:06] ---
--Good, huh?
--Well, that's a given.
[14:09] ---
Tsubasa, Shingo. Drink this.
[14:11] ---
Oh, thanks.
[14:13] ---
Appreciate it.
[14:16] ---
--Thanks.
--It's good!
[14:18] ---
Nice thinking.
[14:20] ---
Yay.
[14:21] ---
Let's go, Tsubasa.
[14:22] ---
Yeah!
[14:28] ---
We're gonna start off serving.
[14:30] ---
We want this side. Let's get this over with.
[14:33] ---
We'll make sure to wrap this up quick.
[14:36] ---
What do you mean?
[14:37] ---
We won't hold back like the guys before us.
[14:40] ---
Sorry, but this match will be a piece of cake.
[14:44] ---
Piece of cake?
[14:45] ---
We're on a totally different level
than you two guys.
[14:48] ---
Oh? Is that right?
[14:51] ---
How about a handshake?
[14:53] ---
Ow, ow, ow!
[14:54] ---
Good luck to you!
[14:55] ---
Argh!
[15:00] ---
Hmm? Those guys are funny.
[15:02] ---
Serving side: Shijo Minami's
Takenouchi/Soga pair.
[15:06] ---
Receiving side: Misaki Academy's
Tanaka/Nagano pair.
[15:08] ---
It's a five-game match. Play ball!
[15:15] ---
Here comes my special move!
[15:18] ---
Galactica...
[15:20] ---
...Magnum Serve!
[15:24] ---
Aaarrggh!

No frickin' way! That was damn hilarious!

"Tanaka/Nagano 0 - 2 Takenouchi/Soga"
[15:47] ---
Those two are incredible!
[15:49] ---
That's a nice strategy they've got.
[15:51] ---
Those two are a train wreck. What's wrong?
[15:54] ---
The morons have zero mental focus.
[15:56] ---

[16:11] ---
Awesome! That was totally dumb,
but that's so like them!
[16:15] ---
They're using their heads.
[16:16] ---
What part of them?
[16:17] ---
Nice one, Shingo!
[16:19] ---
Go! Go!
[16:20] ---
Keep it up.
[16:21] ---
Come on, bring it!
[16:23] ---
Hey, hey, hey!
[16:25] ---
Are they stupid?
[16:27] ---
Stupid?!
[16:30] ---
Fault!
[16:32] ---
Yeah! Good one!
[16:33] ---
That's not illegal, right?
[16:35] ---
What the hell is with these guys?!
[16:43] ---
--Whoa!
--Good job!
[16:45] ---
Relax, Tanaka.
[16:47] ---
I know. That won't work on me anymore.

[17:10] ---
Argh, what are they doing?! They caught up!
[17:14] ---
Let's keep it up.
[17:16] ---
For sure. Arashi will beat us up if we lose.
[17:19] ---
Oh, yeah...
[17:30] ---
Shit!

--Okay!

[17:42] ---
Aww, so close.
[17:44] ---
All bark and no bite.
[17:46] ---
What a shame. They were doing so well, too.
[17:49] ---
Dammit. That strategy alone wasn't enough.
[17:53] ---
Guess not. We didn't have
long enough to prepare this time.
[17:57] ---
It's just a matter of practice.
[17:59] ---
That's right. We just gotta get stronger.
[18:06] ---
Shingo and Tsubasa are
better than I thought, Maki.
[18:10] ---
They've got room to grow, those two.
[18:16] ---
It's our turn now.
[18:17] ---
Yuta!
[18:18] ---
Yeah!
[18:19] ---
You're up against Arashi Oji who
plays back and Shinjiro Sunaga in front.
[18:24] ---
They're actually Misaki Academy's ace pair.
[18:27] ---
You'll never beat their aces.
[18:31] ---
I did some research of my own.
[18:33] ---
For that pair, Oji is the leader
and he calls all the shots.
[18:37] ---
He's the one in charge.
[18:40] ---
I see how it is.
[18:42] ---
Let's go.
[18:43] ---
Yup.
[18:44] ---
Be right back!
[18:47] ---
Maki! Toma! Good luck!
[18:50] ---
Let's see your stuff!
[18:51] ---
Stay calm!
[18:52] ---
Win at least one, okay?
[18:54] ---
Do whatever it takes to win!
[18:56] ---
Go on! Give 'em hell!
[18:58] ---
Your kids are really
something else. I'm shocked.
[19:02] ---
I know. I'm surprised, too.
[19:05] ---
Did you give them some guidance?
[19:07] ---
I haven't done anything.
[19:09] ---
It's your secret then? I get it.
[19:11] ---
Still, Oji and Sunaga are our aces.
I can't wait to see what happens.
[19:16] ---
Aces? Second years?
[19:18] ---
You didn't know that?
[19:20] ---
Uh... These are our aces, too!
[19:23] ---
This team of yours isn't even that great.
[19:26] ---
My side's just dumb for underestimating you.
[19:29] ---
I won't be guilty of that.
[19:31] ---
I'm going to absolutely crush you.
[19:43] ---
What's that about?
[19:45] ---
Serving side: Shijo Minami's
Shinjo/Katsuragi pair.
[19:48] ---
Receiving side: Misaki Academy's
Oji/Sunaga pair.
[19:52] ---
It's a five-game match. Play ball!
[19:58] ---
That serve's pretty...
[20:01] ---
...fast!
[20:02] ---
There!
[20:04] ---
What?!
[20:06] ---
Nice volley.
[20:07] ---
Nice serve there.

I think I'll be able to enjoy this!
[20:29] ---
"Oji/Sunaga 1 - 1 Shinjo/Katsuragi"
[20:36] ---
--In the blink of an eye...
--They turned it around.
[20:38] ---
Incredible.
[20:40] ---
They're pretty damn good.
[20:42] ---
1-2!
[20:45] ---
Fault!
[20:48] ---
Double fault!
[20:51] ---
Maki.
[20:53] ---
Don't worry.
[20:56] ---
Sorry.
[21:03] ---
Change sides!
[21:06] ---
Game score: 1-0!
[21:11] ---
The fun has just begun.
[21:13] ---
Let's enjoy this some more!
[21:27] ---
Tsk! Shit!
[21:31] ---
Come on, guys! At least put up a fight!
[21:41] ---
I see it!
[21:45] ---
It's so fast.
[21:46] ---
That's because I'm awesome!
[21:48] ---
If my first serve stays in, you'll never
return it! And I mean never!
[21:58] ---
Out!
[21:59] ---
So close!
[22:00] ---
That's one impressive serve.
[22:02] ---
3-0!
[22:07] ---
Change service!
[22:08] ---
That's crazy. Even their front has a sick serve.
[22:12] ---
It's bad news if their serves stay in.
[22:14] ---
Arashi Oji's serves are faster
than anything we've seen before.
[22:19] ---
Just hitting it's a challenge.
[22:21] ---
Are you saying they can't win?!
[22:25] ---
I thought of something I think we should try.
[22:28] ---
Huh?
[22:29] ---
[22:35] ---
Ever since finding that sky
we've yearned to soar through
[22:45] ---
Our hearts have been drawn to the future
[22:57] ---
The image grows with each hope and fear
[23:04] ---
Tears and smiles come pouring out,
regardless of emotion
[23:09] ---
It's almost dizzying
[23:10] ---
Makes us wanna break the cage
of this confined, empty life and run away
[23:18] ---
Ever since the wings to fly
unfurled from our backs
[23:28] ---
Our hearts have faced the future
[23:32] ---
We wanna soar freely though skies far and wide
[23:42] ---
Hey, don't keep us locked up
[23:46] ---
No matter how hard we flap our wings
[23:50] ---
We can't reach like this
[23:53] ---
When we're inside a cage
[24:04] ---
"Stars Align"
"Look forward to next week!"
[24:08] ---
