[00:08] ---
    Damn it!
[00:16] ---
    It's no good. Inspiration Tennis
    is easier said than done.
[00:20] ---
    The Bible Tennis I've always
    used is ingrained in me.
[00:25] ---
    Nosuke.
[00:27] ---
    Your style is neat and compact, as usual.
[00:31] ---
    Yeah...
[00:37] ---
    Nosuke, this is you.
[00:41] ---
    Speed, power, stamina, mental strength,
    and technique are all-around at 4.
[00:47] ---
    A model tennis player well-balanced
    in the five elements.
[00:52] ---
    But when an opponent with a bigger
    pentagon comes along, you can't beat them.
[00:58] ---
    Didn't you feel that way when
    we played Zeus from Team Greece?
[01:04] ---
    Without at least one element
    superior to your opponent,
[01:09] ---
    you can't even find an opening.
[01:12] ---
    What will you do then, Nosuke?
[02:49] ---
    "Beyond the Bible"
[02:54] ---
    We will now start the semi-finals of
    the U-17 World Cup: France versus Japan!
[03:02] ---
    Good luck!
[03:06] ---
    Ryoma!
[03:08] ---
    First match, #2 doubles. For France:
[03:12] ---
    Tristan Bardot and Timothée Moreau.
[03:22] ---
    Haute Couture!
[03:25] ---
    Hottie!
[03:27] ---
    You hear that? "Haute Couture"
    and "Hottie." That's funny.
[03:31] ---
    For Japan: Ikuto Kimijima
    and Kuranosuke Shiraishi.
[03:38] ---
    My partner's a middle schooler.
[03:40] ---
    I'd appreciate if you don't focus
    all your attacks on him.
[03:45] ---
    That's Kimijima for you.
    Negotiating already.
[03:50] ---
    You oppose Haute Couture's aesthetics?
[03:55] ---
    Very well.
[03:57] ---
    The best of three sets. France to serve!
[04:03] ---
    It's typical for a lefty to defend
    the right and a righty to defend the left.
[04:08] ---
    This is unusual.
    A lefty defending deuce court?
[04:12] ---
    Now, let the show begin!
[04:15] ---
    Trying to throw us off balance?
    It won't work on us!
[04:20] ---
    Playing by the book.
    A slice serve to the outside.
[04:23] ---
    But its speed will inevitably fall.
[04:28] ---
    Shiraishi!
[04:29] ---
    Oh, whoops.
[04:31] ---
    Prince Kimi was right.
[04:34] ---
    I can get an inside in or angle shot
    from this position.
[04:38] ---
    A straight. He moved too soon.
[04:41] ---
    I've got you!
[04:43] ---
    A fake-out?
[04:48] ---
    Double fake-out?
[04:55] ---
    15-0.
[04:56] ---
    Haute Couture!
[04:58] ---
    Sorry, Prince Kimi.
[05:01] ---
    Haute Couture's plays
    are rather troublesome.
[05:05] ---
    Now, let the posing contest begin!
[05:11] ---
    Whoa.
[05:18] ---
    Game, Japan. 1-1.
[05:21] ---
    Prince Kimi!
[05:23] ---
    Oh? Pretty good.
[05:33] ---
    Haute Couture and Prince Kimi are having
    an intense rally of technical shots!
[05:38] ---
    Not bad.
[05:42] ---
    Game, France. 2-1.
[05:44] ---
    Haute Couture!
[05:48] ---
    --40-0.
    --Hottie!
[05:50] ---
    Oh, my. He really is a hottie.
[05:53] ---
    Hey, Koharu! Are you cheating on me?
[05:56] ---
    Game, France. 3-1.
[06:00] ---
    Game, France. 4-1.
[06:05] ---
    4-2.
[06:09] ---
    Game, France. 5-2.
[06:15] ---
    Damn it!
[06:16] ---
    Shiraishi's Bible Tennis is useless
    against the upper world-class players?
[06:21] ---
    Only Captain Shiraishi
    hasn't struck a pose yet.
[06:34] ---
    Game, France. 6-2.
[06:39] ---
    They won the set already.
[06:53] ---
    Stall for time?
[06:54] ---
    Just until Nosuke finds
    his own tennis style.
[06:58] ---
    Nobody's ever initiated
    a negotiation with me.
[07:05] ---
    Very well.
[07:07] ---
    But I regret to say, time's up.
[07:11] ---
    I can't go down with Shiraishi and lose
    this crucial first match with France.
[07:18] ---
    The Hottie's an all-around 6.
[07:20] ---
    Haute Couture's technique is a 7.
[07:22] ---
    His speed, mental strength,
    and stamina are 6s.
[07:26] ---
    And his power is a 5.
[07:29] ---
    Well, well. I thought he had
    become disheartened.
[07:33] ---
    Shiraishi, shall we negotiate?
[07:38] ---
    What?
[07:40] ---
    The two from Team France
    underestimate you.
[07:43] ---
    I'll make sure to give you an opportunity
    in the first shot of the second set.
[07:49] ---
    You weren't able to score
    a single point in the first set.
[07:53] ---
    Let's catch France by surprise and gain
    the momentum of the match.
[07:57] ---
    However, if you can't
    score that first shot,
[08:01] ---
    Japan will never gain that momentum.
[08:05] ---
    Game, France. Tristan to serve.
[08:12] ---
    Come on, give me
    your best shot, White Stone!
[08:16] ---
    Prince Kimi!
[08:20] ---
    They'll score with an aggressive poach!
[08:25] ---
    One: Like the water's surface.
[08:27] ---
    He knew where the smash would land!
[08:29] ---
    Abandoned your partner, Kimijima?
[08:33] ---
    For the sake of beating France...
[08:52] ---
    He's going straight for him?!
[08:53] ---
    Oh, no! Watch out, Prince Kimi!
[08:59] ---
    It's impossible to defend
    the whole doubles court alone, Kimijima!
[09:05] ---
    Two: Like the web of a spider.
[09:14] ---
    Haute Couture?!
[09:15] ---
    Too bad for you,
    my partner's quick to sniff out a trick!
[09:19] ---
    Three: Like a castle wall.
[09:22] ---
    When the player at
    the front is fighting hard,
[09:24] ---
    the opponent is forced to lob.
[09:27] ---
    Just like that one time, right?
[09:32] ---
    Go on, Shiraishi.
    Here's your one shot, as promised.
[09:39] ---
    He had a shot like this up his sleeve?
[09:43] ---
    Look, look! Did you see that, Koshimae?!
[09:46] ---
    That was one super-powered shot!
[09:48] ---
    Shiraishi hit a shot like Gin's
    and blasted Hottie away!
[09:52] ---
    You're so loud.
[09:55] ---
    Not happening, Kimijima!
[10:06] ---
    Ahh... Ecstasy!
[10:14] ---
    Oh, Kurarin!
[10:16] ---
    That was the bomb... but he bombed it.
[10:19] ---
    15-0.
[10:21] ---
    --Ooh, look!
    --He's actually super cute!
[10:24] ---
    What a hottie!
[10:26] ---
    Too cool!
[10:27] ---
    So handsome!
[10:39] ---
    They got us good.
[10:46] ---
    Well, if he's a power player,
    I'll make him run all around the court...
[10:55] ---
    ...to prevent him from hitting that again!
[11:07] ---
    Kurarin!
[11:09] ---
    S-So fast!
[11:10] ---
    Wh-Whoa, was that--
[11:14] ---
    Without at least one element
    superior to your opponent,
[11:19] ---
    you can't even find an opening.
[11:23] ---
    What will you do then, Nosuke?
[11:31] ---
    Power player? No.
[11:41] ---
    Speed player? That's not me, either.
[11:52] ---
    Technique...
[12:00] ---
    Now he's using Chitose-like techniques!
[12:03] ---
    Stamina...
[12:17] ---
    Look, look, Koshimae!
[12:19] ---
    Shiraishi's playing like me!
[12:23] ---
    Mental strength...
[12:28] ---
    It's the embodiment of Shitenhoji's
    "Whoever wins, wins" mentality!
[12:34] ---
    Th-This is...
[12:38] ---
    C-Captain...
[12:40] ---
    No way...
[12:42] ---
    It might be because
    I've watched Shitenhoji's
[12:45] ---
    quirky and unique play styles...
[12:52] ---
    Even my Spirited Away!
[12:57] ---
    ...that I'm able to confidently use plays
    that specialize individual skills.
[13:04] ---
    It's thanks to them that I'm
    able to go beyond the Bible.
[13:11] ---
    I can't determine his play style!
[13:14] ---
    Fascinating.
[13:16] ---
    For each shot, he puts all his skills
    into a single element
[13:21] ---
    to form an overall mind-blowing pentagon--
[13:24] ---
    No, he's created an atypical star shape.
[13:28] ---
    Truly, a Star Bible.
[13:31] ---
    Nosuke, is this your response?
[13:37] ---
    30-30.
[13:40] ---
    I will catch every star out there!
[13:44] ---
    You really reach for the sky, huh?
[13:48] ---
    Oh? Star Bible?
[13:51] ---
    Star Bible? I don't really get it,
    but it's so cool!
[14:02] ---
    Nosuke didn't abandon
    his all-around 4 tennis style.
[14:07] ---
    He went far beyond my expectations.
[14:09] ---
    As Nosuke is now, he's an all-around 7.
[14:19] ---
    40-30.
[14:21] ---
    Ahh... Ecstasy!
[14:24] ---
    Ecstasy!
[14:31] ---
    --Set point!
    --Ah... Ecstasy!
[14:33] ---
    --All right! Japan's got the momentum now!
    --Ah... Ecstasy!
[14:36] ---
    Shiraishi! We'll catch up
    with this one point!
[14:45] ---
    You guys are so stimulating!
[14:47] ---
    They upped their game to stop us
    from controlling the flow of the match.
[14:52] ---
    They know how important this point is.
[14:57] ---
    They're clearly experienced players.
[14:59] ---
    Prince Kimi, we'll stand our ground!
[15:02] ---
    Good attitude.
[15:07] ---
    Amazing, Kurarin!
[15:09] ---
    They've got iron defense!
[15:12] ---
    But I know that solely
    playing defensively...
[15:17] ---
    ...won't win this match!
[15:19] ---
    The right-handed Hottie
    and left-handed Haute Couture...
[15:23] ---
    They can only return
    a high backhand volley.
[15:26] ---
    The area doubles players
    hate most... The killer spot!
[15:32] ---
    Now, Shiraishi. We switch to offense.
[15:35] ---
    Okay!
[15:37] ---
    Deuce!
[15:43] ---
    I concede.
[15:50] ---
    You're both ambidextrous?
[15:56] ---
    I meant to attack the killer spot,
    but it seems to have backfired.
[16:05] ---
    They never showed their cards at the
    Exhibition Matches or the preliminaries,
[16:10] ---
    but they chose to reveal this now
[16:12] ---
    and stopped Japan
    from controlling the momentum.
[16:16] ---
    Not bad, France.
[16:19] ---
    They're both ambidextrous...
    How utterly troublesome!
[16:29] ---
    Game, France. 5-5.
[16:34] ---
    They broke Prince Kimi's serve?
[16:38] ---
    It was set point, though!
[16:40] ---
    We were this close
    to winning the second set.
[16:44] ---
    This is gonna be rough.
[16:47] ---
    Game, France. 6-5.
[16:53] ---
    They turned the tables!
[16:56] ---
    Damn it! What are they doing?!
[16:59] ---
    Ouch!
[17:04] ---
    15-0.
[17:05] ---
    An ace! The Japan pair
    hasn't given up yet!
[17:09] ---
    Shiraishi, they really can't
    determine your tennis style.
[17:14] ---
    Game, Japan. 6-6.
[17:17] ---
    12-point tiebreak.
[17:26] ---
    What mental fortitude
    for a middle schooler.
[17:29] ---
    I'm impressed.
[17:31] ---
    We can't lose this match, Haute Couture!
[17:49] ---
    1-0, France!
[17:53] ---
    All right!
[17:56] ---
    The ball's force overwhelmed me?
[17:58] ---
    Let's keep calm and make sure
    to win our serves.
[18:03] ---
    O-Okay.
[18:09] ---
    Peculiar.
[18:19] ---
    All four of them have forgotten
    about the posing contest.
[18:33] ---
    Yeah!
[18:36] ---
    6-5. Japan, set point.
[18:39] ---
    I've never seen Prince Kimi like this.
[18:46] ---
    7-6. France, match point.
[18:49] ---
    Now France has match point!
[18:54] ---
    Prince, Kimi. Can we talk?
[18:58] ---
    Come on, are they up to something again?
[19:04] ---
    Kimijima!
[19:05] ---
    I'm grateful for the most
    stimulating match I've had in a while!
[19:09] ---
    Tristan! One wrong move
    and we'll trip you up!
[19:16] ---
    See?
[19:21] ---
    After being chosen to represent Japan
    for the U-17 World Cup,
[19:26] ---
    I saw my teammates grow every day, making
    me impatient to see my own progress.
[19:33] ---
    I will believe in my own strength.
[19:37] ---
    With one flash of inspiration,
    how strong can I become?
[19:42] ---
    That's right, I will continue
    to go forward with Star Bible!
[19:56] ---
    If luck wasn't on our side,
    you may have tripped us up.
[20:03] ---
    Team Japan absolutely
    cannot lose this first match!
[20:07] ---
    Prince Kimi!
[20:13] ---
    Go over the net!
[20:17] ---
    Go over!
[20:21] ---
    Get over!
[20:29] ---
    Game set. Won by France. 6-2, 7-6.
[20:44] ---
    I was unable to negotiate with the ball.
[20:52] ---
    You'll be able to eventually, Prince Kimi.
[20:57] ---
    My thanks, Shiraishi.
[21:02] ---
    Come on, let's walk down the last runway
    with our heads held high.
[21:16] ---
    Nosuke.
[21:17] ---
    Tanegashima.
[21:19] ---
    Chai.
[21:21] ---
    I couldn't win the match, but I finally
    found the tennis I was aiming for.
[21:28] ---
    You showed us some good stuff.
[21:31] ---
    Star Bible exceeded
    my expectations by far.
[21:37] ---
    Thank you.
[23:10] ---
    Next is a mixed grade pair from Rikkai.
[23:13] ---
    They should have great teamwork, right?
[23:15] ---
    What? Things seem pretty tense...
[23:19] ---
    Next time,
    "The Worst Doubles Pair."
[23:19] ---
    "The Worst Doubles Pair"
[23:22] ---
    This doubles pair has a long way to go.
[23:25] ---
    "The Prince of Tennis II
    U-17 World Cup
    Extra Segment"
[23:25] ---
    Prince Kimi, nice work.
[23:25] ---
    "'Life is a Theatre'
    Kanata Irie"
[23:27] ---
    You have my thanks. This win--
[23:28] ---
    Shh! You had a strenuous match.
    Why don't you rest quietly?
[23:33] ---
    Irie, you--
[23:34] ---
    Shush. Relax.
[23:36] ---
    Trying to make me listen
    to your character song?
[23:39] ---
    You got me.
[23:39] ---
    
[23:41] ---
