**[00:09] Arimura**
Huh? Tenkawa-kun, why?
**[00:15] (Flashback) Akira**
Does this mean I can do what I like?
**[00:20] (Flashback) Riku**
Yeah. I believe...
**[00:25] (Flashback) Riku**
...in your strength.
**[00:29] Akira**
I... win!
**[00:34] LEFT**
Soran
**[00:34] RIGHT**
Kinosaka
**[00:44] Arimura**
No...
**[00:47] Arimura**
This match was supposed to settle things
between Riku-kun and me...
**[01:05] Arimura**
I see.
**[01:07] Tenkawa**
Arimura.
**[01:11] Tenkawa**
I'm sorry.
**[01:14] Arimura**
It's fine.
**[01:18] Arimura**
I'm the one who should apologize.
**[01:41] Arimura**
Riku-kun.
**[01:43] Arimura**
Looks like you won.
**[01:48] Riku**
Yeah.
**[01:52] Arimura**
Could I ask you for a favor?

**[03:37] Riku**
It should be around here.
**[03:39] Akira**
Hey, isn't that them?
**[03:49] Arimura**
Hey. Thanks for coming, you two.
**[03:51] Riku**
We have the day off, so it's okay.
**[03:54] Arimura**
That's good, then.
**[03:56] Riku**
Anyway, why'd you call us out here today?
**[03:58] Arimura**
There's something I wanted
to discuss with you.
**[04:01] Riku**
With us?
**[04:03] Arimura**
Yeah.
**[04:06] Arimura**
Watch out in the game against Sekirei.
**[04:10] Arimura**
There was one tactic
I couldn't employ in our game.
**[04:13] Arimura**
But Asamiya Reo will
definitely use it against you.
**[04:18] Riku**
You're right. We'll come up a way to counter.
**[04:23] Arimura**
Sorry. My intention wasn't
to make you anxious.
**[04:28] Riku**
I know.
**[04:30] Riku**
I'm under no illusion about
how tough it will be to beat them.
**[04:36] Arimura**
Yeah, it will.
**[04:39] Arimura**
Riku-kun, could the two
of us speak in private?
**[04:43] Riku**
I don't mind.
**[04:45] Akira**
Sure, fine by me.
**[04:48] Arimura**
Thank you. Later, Tenkawa-kun.
**[04:51] Tenkawa**
Yeah.
**[04:54] Riku**
What did you want to discuss?
**[04:56] Arimura**
It's about yesterday's game.
**[04:59] Riku**
The game?
**[05:04] Arimura**
I was utterly defeated.
**[05:08] Arimura**
You saw right through me.
**[05:11] Arimura**
I *did* only see my teammates as pawns.
**[05:18] Arimura**
But... you see the game differently.
**[05:22] Arimura**
You put your faith in your teammates.
**[05:27] Arimura**
That's the reason I lost.
**[05:31] Arimura**
I couldn't beat you at rugby, either.
**[05:38] Riku**
Arimura...
**[05:40] Arimura**
I thought I only needed to
outwit you to win the game.
**[05:44] Arimura**
But that's not how rugby works.
**[05:47] Riku**
Yeah. That's what makes rugby so interesting.
**[05:51] Riku**
Your teammates do stuff without your input.
**[05:54] Riku**
That's why you can put your faith in them.
**[05:58] Riku**
That's what he taught me.
**[06:02] Arimura**
Tenkawa-kun taught me
that too, in the end.
**[06:11] Arimura**
Riku-kun, can I ask you something?
**[06:15] Riku**
What is it?
**[06:16] Arimura**
Your team's final play.
**[06:20] Arimura**
Why did you choose *that* play?
**[06:28] Arimura**
I understand you have
faith in your teammates.
**[06:32] Arimura**
That's why you trusted one
to bring home the win.
**[06:37] Arimura**
But you also cast aside your
greatest weapon: your tactics.
**[06:43] Arimura**
Due to your small stature, your tactical
play is your only means of survival.
**[06:49] Arimura**
So tell me: why did you make that choice?
**[06:54] Arimura**
How were you able to just
throw tactics out the window?
**[07:01] Riku**
I don't know.
**[07:02] Arimura**
What?
**[07:04] Riku**
You summed it up well.
**[07:06] Riku**
For me, that final play was do or die.
**[07:11] Arimura**
Then... why?
**[07:15] Riku**
You knew every play I had at my disposal.
**[07:19] Riku**
Whatever tactic I used, you would
have countered and won the game.
**[07:24] Riku**
That's why I did what I did.
**[07:26] Riku**
I did it to beat you.
**[07:29] Riku**
I had to put my faith in
my teammates to win it.
**[07:32] Riku**
But...
**[07:35] Riku**
Honestly, I even surprised myself.
**[07:38] Riku**
I can't believe I did that.
**[07:46] Arimura**
Sorry, sorry.
**[07:47] Arimura**
I see. So you even surprised yourself, huh?
**[07:51] Arimura**
You must really trust your team.
**[07:55] Arimura**
And I overlooked that. It's no wonder I lost.
**[08:06] Tenkawa**
I lost yesterday.
**[08:10] Akira**
Yup. I won.
**[08:13] Tenkawa**
That's the first time
I've lost a contest of strength.
**[08:16] Akira**
Not bad, huh?
**[08:21] Tenkawa**
Yeah. I had no idea the need
for revenge could burn so hot.
**[08:26] Akira**
Bring it on. But don't go
thinking I won't fight back.
**[08:39] Arimura**
Thanks for coming today.
**[08:41] Riku**
It's no big deal.
**[08:44] Arimura**
Truth is, there's something
I wanted to tell you.
**[08:50] Arimura**
Next time, I'll be on the field.
**[08:54] Arimura**
And next time, I'll beat you.
**[08:58] Arimura**
Check that. I'll beat Soran.
**[09:01] Riku**
You won't beat us next time, either.
**[09:04] Akira**
Bring it on.
**[09:07] Arimura**
See you on the field next time.
**[09:10] Riku**
Yeah.
**[09:17] Riku**
Bye.
**[09:20] Arimura**
Riku-kun!
**[09:25] Riku**
It's fine.
**[09:27] Riku**
See you.
**[09:32] Tenkawa**
You're still worried?
**[09:34] Arimura**
I suppose I am.
**[09:36] Arimura**
Their game against Sekirei
will be difficult for him.
**[09:53] Akira**
Hey, what's this tactic Reo might use?
**[09:57] Riku**
I can imagine what it might be,
but it's my problem to deal with.
**[10:01] Riku**
It's fine. Let me worry about it.
**[10:03] Akira**
I see. All good, then.
**[10:23] Akira**
Seiichiro?
**[10:25] Riku**
Nada-san?
**[10:27] Riku**
H-Hey!
**[10:29] Nada**
That was a nice pass.
**[10:35] Nada**
Akira?
**[10:44] Nada**
What are you doing here?
**[10:46] Akira**
Let's go!
**[10:54] Akira**
It's been a while, Seiichiro!
**[11:01] MOB**
What's going on?
**[11:03] Riku**
What are you doing?!
**[11:06] Nada**
Riku.
**[11:08] MOB**
There's two of them now.
**[11:09] MOB**
Who are these guys?
**[11:10] Nada**
Sorry. They're here to see me.
**[11:27] Riku**
Thank you.
**[11:33] Nada**
I didn't think you guys would come by here.
**[11:37] Riku**
It's pure coincidence.
**[11:38] Riku**
But, Nada-san, I thought
you were still injured.
**[11:41] Akira**
Doesn't playing here mean you're all better?
**[11:44] Akira**
You wouldn't have been able
to take me down if you weren't.
**[11:48] Nada**
Yeah, I'm 90 percent of the way there.
**[11:52] Nada**
I asked them to let me practice here
as part of my rehabilitation.
**[11:56] Riku**
I see.
**[11:58] Akira**
Then why don't you come play with us instead?
**[12:03] Riku**
There's a reason he can't return.
**[12:05] Riku**
Isn't that right?
**[12:10] Nada**
I nearly stole the future
of Tori and his friends.
**[12:13] Akira**
What do you mean by that?
**[12:17] Nada**
I wanted to make the team
stronger as its captain.
**[12:20] Nada**
Together, we would stand victorious.
**[12:23] Nada**
That was the philosophy that drove me
when I captained the team.
**[12:27] Nada**
On top of that, Soran has
a long history in the sport.
**[12:31] Nada**
I didn't want to tarnish its reputation.
**[12:35] Nada**
I was at my wit's end every day,
trying to improve the team.
**[12:39] Nada**
But everyone still placed their trust in me.
**[12:44] Riku**
Oguma-san told me when you took over
the captaincy, everyone was full of hope.
**[12:50] Nada**
I see. I appreciate that.
**[12:54] Nada**
It's true that the team got stronger.
**[12:57] Nada**
Strong enough to hold
our own against Sekirei.
**[13:01] Nada**
At the Sekirei game last year,
we were full of confidence.
**[13:06] Nada**
With the team we had, we could beat Sekirei.
**[13:10] Nada**
Everyone believed it.
**[13:12] Nada**
But Sekirei... Or rather,
Asamiya Reo taught me a hard lesson.
**[13:20] Nada**
I learned just how much I'd made
the team dependent on me.
**[13:32] Nada**
Asamiya Reo knew that.
**[13:35] Nada**
That's why he focused
all his attention on me.
**[13:53] Nada**
The moment I fell,
the team's spirit was broken.
**[13:57] Nada**
And sadly, we lost to Sekirei.
**[14:04] Nada**
It came as a shock.
**[14:06] Nada**
Not so much my injury,
but the fact our team lost.
**[14:10] Riku**
Nada-san...
**[14:14] Nada**
But what shocked me most...
**[14:17] Nada**
was how many members quit
after learning of my condition.
**[14:30] Nada**
So I decided against coming back.
**[14:34] Nada**
If I did, everything would
revert back to how it was.
**[14:37] Nada**
I didn't want to do that
to Tori and the others.
**[14:41] Akira**
What kind of reason is that?!
**[14:43] Akira**
It wasn't your fault at all!
**[14:47] Nada**
It's not as simple as all that, anyway.
**[14:50] Nada**
*You* get what I mean, don't you?
**[14:54] Nada**
Your tactics restrict the team.
**[14:57] Nada**
Haven't you ever felt that?
**[15:03] Nada**
And if that's true...
**[15:04] Akira**
It's not.
**[15:07] Akira**
We may go all "tactical"
at times, but I'm still me.
**[15:10] Akira**
I do what I want.
**[15:15] Riku**
We have guys like him on the team.
**[15:18] Nada**
I see how it is.
**[15:20] Riku**
The captain and his friends
are in a different place now.
**[15:23] Riku**
Their heads are held high,
and they're waiting for you to return.
**[15:28] Riku**
Come see our game against Sekirei.
**[15:32] Riku**
Please.
**[15:37] Nada**
Fine. I will.
**[15:41] Riku**
Thank you.
**[15:46] Riku**
Sekirei
Academy
**[16:05] Kiriya**
*I see.*
**[16:10] Kiriya**
This one is all yours.
**[16:15] Aoba**
There!
**[16:22] Kiriya**
Your kicks are as accurate as ever.
**[16:25] Aoba**
Naturally.
**[16:29] Setsuya**
Captain!
**[16:41] Setsuya**
Impressive like always, my lord!
**[16:55] Suruga**
The final is tomorrow.
**[16:57] Suruga**
Is everyone suitably prepared?
**[17:01] Setsuya**
Why, of course.
**[17:04] Aoba**
Naturally.
**[17:06] Kiriya**
No concerns over here.
**[17:09] Reo**
We shall do what we always do:
crush our opponent with all our might.
**[17:14] Reo**
No more needs to be said.
**[17:22] Suruga**
We should be fine.
**[17:27] Reo**
What is it?
**[17:29] Suruga**
Does the prospect of facing
your brother trouble you?
**[17:33] Reo**
No. It changes nothing.
**[17:36] Reo**
I will simply give it my all and beat him.
**[17:40] Suruga**
Sounds like you.
**[17:42] Reo**
Besides, there is a fatal hole in his tactics.
**[17:48] Suruga**
A hole?
**[17:50] Reo**
Riku, you do not belong here.
**[18:03] Riku**
This is the only way, huh?
**[18:05] Akira**
If it ain't Riku.
**[18:09] Riku**
Akira? What is it?
**[18:11] Akira**
Oh, I'm not here for any particular reason.
**[18:16] Riku**
What's with the grin?
**[18:18] Akira**
Oh, nothing. Just figured
I'd find you out here.
**[18:25] Riku**
What does that mean?
**[18:33] Riku**
Come to think of it...
**[18:36] Riku**
You said before there was
someone you wanted to beat.
**[18:40] Akira**
Yeah. There is.
**[18:44] Riku**
So... who is it?
**[18:48] Akira**
Asamiya Reo. Your older brother.
**[18:53] Riku**
Because he's the best player around?
**[18:57] Akira**
No, to avenge Seiichiro.
**[19:02] Akira**
When I was in middle school,
he got me to join the rugby team.
**[19:07] Akira**
Before that, I spent all my time
hanging around my grandpa.
**[19:14] Akira**
If it wasn't for Seiichiro, I wouldn't be here.
**[19:18] Akira**
So I wanted to avenge him.
**[19:23] Riku**
You "wanted"?
**[19:28] Akira**
It's all different now.
**[19:30] Akira**
I just want to beat strong
opponents now. That's all.
**[19:35] Akira**
After all, that's what I do.
**[19:39] Riku**
Sounds like you.
**[19:44] Riku**
Asamiya Reo is the strongest
out there, no doubt about it.
**[19:50] Riku**
So to face him, I present
you with my final tactic.
**[19:59] Riku**
That tactic is...
**[20:07] Tori**
It's time.
**[20:08] Tori**
Is everyone ready?
**[20:10] All**
Yeah!
**[20:12] Tori**
All right.
**[20:17] Tori**
Let's go!
**[20:19] All**
Yeah!
**[21:55] Riku**
The Sekirei game.
**[21:56] Akira**
We can win this, right?
**[21:57] Riku**
I wouldn't have returned if we couldn't.
**[22:00] Akira**
Next time:
**[22:00] Both**
m 0 0 s 100 0 100 100 0 100 c
**[22:00] Both**
Confidence and Trust
**[22:00] Both**
"Confidence and Trust!"
**[22:02] Riku**
We'll show them Soran's strength.
**[22:05] Both**
Try Knights!

**[22:09] Nada**
This time, we're covering tackling.
**[22:11] Akira**
You taught me how to tackle, too.
**[22:15] Nada**
You tackle when you want to
stop the ball carrier in his tracks.
**[22:20] Ohata**
When the ball carrier has been grabbed and
hauled to the ground, the tackle is complete.
**[22:25] Nada**
A tackle is considered incomplete
if the ball carrier stays on his feet.
**[22:30] Akira**
And you're not allowed to tackle
players who don't have the ball.
**[22:35] Nada**
Tackling's the best part of rugby,
***SIGN*** Tackling
**[22:38] Nada**
but flying at each other
can be dangerous.
**[22:40] Ohata**
Follow the rules and be safe.
