[00:05] Masaki
    The summer of our third
    year of middle school.
[00:08] Masaki
    Back then, if we were anxious
    about anything in our future,
[00:12] Masaki
    it would have been our high school
    entrance exams, and not much else.
[00:15] Masaki
    But, they were such a small thing.
[00:19] Masaki
    Since starting surfing,
    every day shone brightly.
[00:27] Masaki
    The future overflowed
    with that same sort of light.
[00:30] Masaki
    That's what we believed.
[00:34] Masaki
    When I think back on it now,
[00:35] Masaki
    the time I spent with those incomparable
    friends was so very precious...
[00:39] Masaki
    Every day was miraculous.

[00:44] Masaki
    Finally, it's next week.
[00:46] Sho
    Yes, it is.
[00:57] Masaki
    The Forest Cup!
[00:59] Masaki
    Our chance to make memories!
[01:01] Masaki
    Listen up, Sho, Tanaka!
[01:04] Masaki
    I will show you the culmination
    of my life of surfing!
[01:07] Masaki
    Something you'll never forget
    for as long as you live!
[01:10] Tanaka
    You say "culmination," but...
[01:12] Tanaka
    It's only been a year
    since Corgi started surfing.
[01:16] Masaki
    No one asked you, Murphy!
[01:17] Masaki
    Even if it's only been a year,
    the culmination is the culmination!
[01:20] Sho
    But, Masaki, you've really
    gotten good in just a year.
[01:24] Masaki
    Right?
[01:25] Masaki
    Right! We're aiming for victory!
[01:28] Tanaka
    You're making too much of yourself!
SIGN    Let's Go Surfing!!
SIGN    3rd Wave First Competition
SIGN    Aim for Victory!!
[03:14] Masaki
    This Kosuke guy...
[03:17] Masaki
    The way he turns his board to match the
    break of the wave... his timing's perfect.
[03:23] Masaki
    At the competition, I'm going to nail
    my off the lip just like this guy!
[03:28] Masaki
    Okay! Time for some image training!
[03:55] Man
    What do you think?
[03:57] Tadao
    Yay!
[03:59] Mori
    Everyone, welcome to the Forest
    Cup at Oarai Sun Beach.
[04:04] Mori
    I am the chair of the competition's
    executive committee, Mori William Soichiro.
[04:08] Masaki
    The chair of the executive committee
    is really young, isn't he?
[04:09] Mori
    Today, the weather has decided to favor us.
[04:11] Mori
    It's a perfect day for surfing.
[04:11] Sho
    I heard he's around our age.
[04:13] Masaki
    Seriously? That's crazy!
[04:13] Mori
    Let's try to be careful of injury
    and enjoy the waves of Oarai together.
[04:14] Tanaka
    They say he's the son of a billionaire,
[04:16] Tanaka
    and he's got a thousand
    surfboards in his collection.
[04:18] Mori
    This Forest—
[04:18] Masaki
    A thousand?
[04:23] Masaki
    Oops...
[04:24] Mori
    This Forest Cup is held
    in many different places.
[04:27] Mori
    In addition to popularizing surfing,
[04:29] Mori
    we aim to discover young stars
    no one's seen before.
[04:33] Mori
    Now, I'd like to begin the competition.
[04:36] Mori
    To good waves!
[04:37] crowd
    To good waves!
[04:41] Masaki
    I'm in round 1, heat 2.
[04:43] Sho
    I'm in heat 3.
[04:45] Masaki
    That means I'd be up against
    Sho in the semifinals, right?
[04:48] Tanaka
    Only if you manage to win enough
    to get that far, Corgi.
[04:50] Masaki
    I will win my way there!
    Because I'm aiming for victory!
[04:55] Masaki
    Huh?
[04:59] Masaki
    What character is that?
[05:01] Tanaka
    Dunno.
[05:04] Naoya
    It's Magical Maid Miruru.
[05:08] Naoya
    You don't even know Miruru?
[05:09] Naoya
    This is why surfers are just so...
[05:14] Masaki
    "Miruru"... he said.
[05:16] Tanaka
    That thing is actually pretty cute.
[05:19] Sho
    Masaki. Setting Miruru aside,
    how are you on the rules?
[05:22] Sho
    Do you have them covered?
[05:23] Masaki
    Yeah!
[05:24] announcer
    Now for Round 1, heat 1.
    Kido Naoya and Fukutome Daigo.
[05:30] announcer
    The time limit is 30 minutes.
[05:32] announcer
    Now, start the heat!
[05:34] announcer
    First, they're both heading out
    to try to get wave priority.
[05:38] Masaki
    This is going by man-on-man priority rules.
[05:41] Masaki
    The one who makes it out the fastest gains
    the right to catch waves first, right?
[05:46] Sho
    That's right. That's what
    "priority" means here.
[05:49] Tanaka
    Vewy good! Aw, you're doing so well!
[05:53] Masaki
    Don't treat me like a child!
[05:55] announcer
    Kido has gained priority!
[05:58] announcer
    Now we wait for a good wave!
[06:01] Sho
    If you don't pick a wave with a nice break,
[06:03] Sho
    it's hard to rack up points,
    no matter how skilled you are.
[06:09] Naoya
    The moment has come!
[06:18] Naoya
    Raven-Dark Blue Angel...
[06:21] Naoya
    descend!
[06:23] announcer
    Just look at Kido! High points
    starting with his first run!
[06:29] Sho
    Wow. He flew pretty high.
[06:31] Sho
    And his landing was solid.
[06:33] Masaki
    And he shouted a super-cool
     name for his move!
[06:36] Tanaka
    Was it cool?
[06:37] Masaki's mom
    I didn't quite understand
    the name of that move,
[06:39] Masaki's mom
    but he's very good, isn't he?
[06:41] Sakura
    Well, he is good enough to be
    in this competition, after all.
[06:44] Sakura
    Hello, Shoko-san! Uncle!
[06:46] Shoko
    Hello!
[06:48] manager
    Where is he?
[06:49] Masaki's mom
    He's at work today, as usual.
[06:51] Masaki's mom
    So, we need to cheer on Masaki
    for his dad's sake, too!
[06:54] Masaki's mom
    Sakura and I made this together.

    Here you are.
[07:00] Shoko
    When is Masaki-kun's heat?
[07:01] Sakura
    It's the next one.
    I just hope he doesn't drown.
[07:07] announcer
    In heat 1, the winner is Kido Naoya.
[07:11] announcer
    Next up, heat 2.
[07:13] announcer
    Hinaoka Masaki and Shimada Shunichiro.
[07:21] Tanaka
    Come on, Corgi. You're up!
[07:31] Masaki
    Okay. Let's do this!
[07:38] Masaki
    Oh, man... I'm starting
    to get kinda nervous.
[07:43] Sho
    Masaki.
[07:44] Sho
    Masaki!
[07:49] Sho
    Masaki.
[07:50] Sho
    If you do what you always do
    in practice, you'll be fine.
[07:54] Masaki
    Like I practiced...
[08:00] Masaki
    Like this?
[08:02] Sho
    Yes, that's it!
[08:04] Masaki
    The show must go on!
[08:07] Sho
    Masaki! You're going!
[08:09] Tanaka
    Hurry up and go!
[08:10] Sho
    Look ahead! Go faster!
[08:12] Masaki
    I'm gonna practice more and more!
[08:15] Tanaka
    Surfing isn't that easy.
[08:17] Sho
    You have to practice over and over!
[08:19] Masaki
    Take off!
[08:21] Masaki
    Yahoo!
[08:22] Masaki
    Sho! Tanaka! Did you see that just now?
[08:25] Sho
    Waiting for a good wave.
    Picking the right wave and riding it.
[08:29] Masaki
    Just like Sho...
[08:30] Sho
    I told you not to push yourself too hard!
[08:32] Masaki
    Surfing is so much fun...
[08:35] Masaki
    My goal...
[08:36] Sho
    Tanaka and I are here.
    There's nothing for you to worry about.
[08:40] Masaki
    Okay!
[08:41] Sho
    I will never forget that feeling.
[08:44] Tanaka
    That's true.
[08:45] Masaki
    Let's go surfing!
[08:47] Masaki
    Let's do that competition!
[08:50] Masaki
    Right.
[08:56] Masaki
    Let's go!
[08:57] announcer
    Start the heat!
[08:59] announcer
    They're heading out!
[09:12] Masaki's mom
    Masaki, you can do it!
SIGN    Masaki    Fight
[09:14] Masaki's mom
    Go! Go! Masaki!
[09:14] Sakura
    Mom, stop shouting so loud.
[09:17] Masaki's mom
    Huh? Why?
[09:19] Masaki's mom
    If I don't shout loud, he won't
    be able to hear me, right?
[09:21] Sakura
    He won't hear no matter how loud you shout.
[09:23] Shoko
    Masaki-kun's got priority.
[09:25] announcer
    Now, Hinaoka's gotten himself priority.
[09:29] announcer
    Forest Cup in Sun Beach...
[09:36] Masaki
    That day I saw Sho...
[09:39] Masaki
    It's been a year since then.
[09:41] Masaki
    I said I wanted to be like Sho...
[09:43] Masaki
    and I've been trying to catch up
    with him ever since.
[09:46] Masaki
    Whether I've gotten any closer or not...
    we'll find that out today.
[09:50] Masaki
    I'm going to do everything
    that's in my power to do!
[09:55] announcer
    Hinaoka seems to have let this one go.
[09:56] Masaki
    No. Not yet.
[09:58] Tanaka
    What's this? I thought he was
    going to go, but he didn't.
[10:01] Sho
    Because it wasn't quite good enough.
[10:03] Tanaka
    Guess he's all grown up now,
    choosing his waves like that.
[10:05] Sho
    That's it, Masaki. No need to rush.
[10:08] announcer
    Five minutes have passed
    and he still hasn't made his move.
[10:15] Masaki
    This is it!
[10:16] Masaki
    A good wave!
[10:18] Masaki
    I'll ride this one!
SIGN    Masaki    Fight
[10:20] announcer
    Hinaoka has caught a wave!
[10:28] Masaki
    Now!
[10:30] announcer
    An impressive sense of balance!
[10:32] announcer
    He takes a long line and delivers
    a beautiful off the lip!
[10:36] announcer
    We can expect some big points from this!
[10:39] Tanaka
    Yes!
[10:40] Sho
    That was amazing, Masaki!
[10:41] Sakura
    You're amazing, Big Brother!
[10:55] Tanaka; simultaneous
    Corgi!
[10:55] Sho; simultaneous
    Masaki!
[11:00] Masaki
    H-How was I?
[11:01] Masaki
    I couldn't hear whose points
    were higher way out there.
[11:04] Sho
    You won!
[11:05] Masaki
    What?
[11:06] Tanaka
    You've advanced to round 2!
[11:09] Masaki
    R-Really?
[11:13] Tanaka
    What's wrong?
[11:14] Sho
    Masaki?
[11:15] Masaki
    I...
[11:16] Tanaka; Sho
    I?
[11:18] Masaki
    I... I did it...
[11:21] Masaki
    I did it!
[11:24] Masaki
    I did it! Yes! I did it! Yay! I won!
[11:28] Masaki
    I did it! I did it!
[11:32] Masaki
    The joy of winning flooded my whole body.
[11:35] Masaki
    Like a small child...
[11:38] Masaki
    I was truly happy.
[11:40] Masaki
    I was happy about winning, of course, but...
[11:42] Masaki
    I felt like I hadn't spent
    the last year in vain...
[11:45] Masaki
    Like the ocean was
    acknowledging me as a surfer.
[11:53] announcer
    Hinaoka made the most
    of the smallest of chances and won!
[13:21] Masaki
    The heats in Round 1 continued.
[13:22] Masaki
    Sho, of course, moved
    to Round 2, as did Tanaka.
[13:26] Masaki
    Then...
[13:27] announcer
    Round 2, heat 1.
[13:29] announcer
    Kido Naoya and Hinaoka Masaki.
[13:32] announcer
    And Kido has taken priority!
[13:37] Masaki
    He's fast.
[13:38] Masaki
    He doesn't have Miruru for nothing!
[13:44] Masaki
    Say, Naoya!
[13:46] Naoya
    Naoya?
[13:47] Masaki
    The name of that move before.
    It was so cool! Like a finishing skill!
[13:50] Naoya
    Really?
[13:51] Naoya
    Thank you, um... Hinaoka.
[13:54] Masaki
    You can call me Masaki.
[13:56] Naoya
    Earlier, did you say you were going to win?
[13:59] Masaki
    Yeah!
[14:00] Naoya
    Can't say I hate that kind of thing.
[14:02] Masaki
    Huh?
[14:05] Naoya
    Well, I'll head out first.
[14:07] announcer
    Kido Naoya takes off!
[14:11] Naoya
    That cloud is calling...
[14:13] Naoya
    Rend the darkness... Meteor Fantasista!
[14:25] Masaki
    The names of his moves are so cool!
[14:27] Masaki
    Whoops. This is no time to be impressed.
[14:29] Masaki
    I need to deliver, too.
[14:31] Masaki
    Another off the lip, no, um...
[14:34] Masaki
    The Oarai is Shining
    Thunder! I'm gonna nail it!
[14:37] announcer
    Next, Hinaoka has caught a wave!
[14:42] announcer
    Oh, what a shame!
    He lost his balance and wiped out!
[14:45] Sakura
    Oh! He fell.
[14:46] manager
    He was thinking about things he
    didn't need to be thinking about.
[14:49] announcer
    Next, it's Kido's turn.
[14:51] Masaki
    This is bad. How many minutes are left?
[15:03] Masaki
    I can't hear them at all.
[15:06] Masaki
    But the next wave
    is probably my last chance.
[15:13] announcer
    Kido has started paddling.
[15:16] announcer
    What's this? Looks like he's
    caught another good wave!
[15:22] announcer
    A splendid aerial!
[15:24] announcer
    We can expect an even better score here!
[15:29] Masaki
    Was that about 6 points?
[15:32] Masaki
    For me to turn this around,
    I need at least 8 points!
[15:35] Masaki
    This is no time to be saying
    stuff like, "Oarai Shining"!
[15:38] Masaki
    I need to deliver a big trick!
[15:40] Masaki
    I want to win again and celebrate...
[15:43] Masaki
    I want that feeling again!
[15:47] Masaki
    Okay! This is a good wave!
    And my timing is perfect!
[15:53] Masaki
    But this isn't enough to turn things around.
[15:56] Masaki
    I'm going to deliver a floater!
[16:01] Masaki
    This is bad!
[16:06] announcer
    That's too bad for Hinaoka!
[16:06] Tanaka
    It's because he pushes himself too hard.
[16:07] announcer
    So close on his second maneuver,
    but ending in failure!
[16:08] Sho
    But his challenger's spirit is good.
[16:11] announcer
    Round 2, heat 1. Kido Naoya wins.
[16:16] Sakura
    Big Brother...
[16:18] Shoko
    He's fine. I think he just
    swallowed a little seawater is all.
[16:21] Sakura
    I-It's not like I'm worried or anything!
[16:24] Sakura
    The fact that he won even once
    is an amazing result for him!
[16:28] Sakura
    Okay! Next, we cheer for Sho-sama!
[16:30] Masaki's mom
    Yes.
SIGN    Sho-sama     Fight!
[16:33] Masaki's mom
    Here you go.
[16:42] announcer
    Round 2, heat 2.
[16:44] announcer
    Akitsuki Sho and Matsukaze Yuta.
[16:46] Masaki
    I was supposed to go up against Sho.
[16:49] Masaki
    Victory?
[16:51] Masaki
    I need to practice so much more!
[16:54] Masaki
    I need to get so much better!
[17:02] announcer
    He's been surfing for as long
    as he can remember.
[17:04] announcer
    Born to surf, Matsukaze!
[17:07] announcer
    He controls the board like
    it's a part of his body!
[17:14] Yuta
    That felt good.
[17:16] Yuta
    According to the data, the chances
    of my winning this round are—
[17:21] Yuta
    Huh?
[17:21] announcer
    Akitsuki has caught a massive wave!
[17:26] announcer
    It's a thing of beauty!
[17:27] announcer
    No complaints, we're expecting
    some high scores for this!
[17:31] Yuta
    What did he say?
[17:36] announcer
    Oops! I forgot the play-by-play.
[17:39] announcer
    But there's no mistake,
    Akitsuki should be getting a high score!
[17:40] Sakura
    Sho-sama!
[17:41] Masaki's mom
    Sho-kun!
[17:43] manager
    Sho-sama!
[17:44] woman
    That boy really is amazing, isn't he?
[17:51] Yuta
    Well, I've completely lost this one.
[17:55] Yuta
    Akitsuki Sho-kun, I should input that name.
[17:59] announcer
    Akitsuki will advance
    to Round 3, the semifinals!
[18:07] Tanaka
    Congrats. Amazing as usual, Sho.
[18:10] Sho
    Tanaka.
[18:11] Tanaka
    Huh?
[18:12] Sho
    I will make it to the finals.
[18:15] Sho
    So, you make sure you come, too.
[18:17] Tanaka
    You say, "come," but...
    I'm not a competitor—
[18:21] Sho
    I know you're a free surfer, Tanaka.
[18:25] Sho
    But... I'll be waiting.
[18:32] Tanaka
    I see.
[18:33] Tanaka
    Well then, I guess I'll have to play
    out there with everything I've got.
[18:36] Tanaka
    See you in the finals.
[18:42] Sho
    In the finals.
[18:45] Masaki
    That the two of them had
    made such a promise...
[18:47] Masaki
    I wasn't aware of it at the time, but...
[18:50] Masaki
    Tanaka moved through
    to Round 3, the semifinals.
[19:00] Naoya
    What technique!
[19:02] Naoya
    It's like Miruru's rival... Kiraru!
[19:05] Naoya
    A formidable enemy.
[19:07] Masaki
    Sho beat Naoya.
[19:19] announcer
    Tanaka, coming right down
    to the wire on time,
[19:21] announcer
    turns things around to win!
[19:27] Tanaka
    That was close.
[19:31] Mori
    Tanaka-kun, was it?
[19:34] Mori
    You beat me.
[19:37] Tanaka
    It was fun.
[19:38] Tanaka
    It was a good game. Thank you.
[19:51] Mori
    What do you think?
[19:52] Mori
    The surfers in Oarai
    are impressive, aren't they?
[19:55] Yuta
    Yes. I was surprised.
[19:57] Yuta
    When you invited me, Bill-kun,
    I wasn't particularly inclined to do it,
[20:00] Yuta
    but I am glad I came.
[20:03] Yuta
    In particular, Hinaoka Masaki-kun.
[20:05] Yuta
    Apparently, it's only been a year
    since he started surfing.
[20:09] Yuta
    With that sense of balance,
    he's going to get a lot of attention.
[20:13] Mori
    Yes.
[20:14] Mori
    His future looks promising.
[20:21] Masaki
    I didn't get anywhere in the repechage,
    where the defeated compete for another chance.
[20:25] Masaki
    The ones who advanced to the finals were...
[20:29] announcer
    The Forest Cup in Oarai Sun Beach.
[20:32] announcer
    In the final round we have Akitsuki Sho...
[20:41] Masaki's mom
    Sho-kun!
[20:42] Sakura
    Sho-sama!
[20:44] manager
    Sho-sama!
[20:46] girls
    Ready, and... Sho-kun!
[20:49] girls
    The show must go on!
[20:55] announcer
    And Tanaka Nalu.
[21:02] Masaki's mom
    Tanaka-kun, you do your best out there, too!
[21:04] Sakura
    While I'm at it, I'll cheer for you, too!
