[00:36] Mori
    This time, the Forest Cup is being held
[00:38] Mori
    in the same place
    as the 2020 world competition,
[00:40] Mori
    here in Tsurigasaki.
[00:43] Mori
    You could call this competition
    a sort of warm-up skirmish.
[00:45] Mori
    These athletes have their eyes
    firmly set on the future,
[00:48] Mori
    and we hope that they will compete
    boldly and with determination.
[00:53] Mori
    Let's have the athletes take the stage.
[00:55] Mori
    Everyone, please give them
    a big round of applause!

    else, too, you can do this!

    Masaki-kun! Fight!
[01:16] Manager
    Star of Oarai!
[01:17] Masaki
    Yes! I'll bring the winner's cup to Oarai!
[01:33] Sakura
    That's the number one
    pick for first place...
[01:36] Tadao
    Fuke Rindo.
[01:37] Manager
    What techniques will he show us this time?
[01:40] Shoko
    I can't wait to see!
[01:46] Masaki
    I can finally go up against Fuke-san!
[01:50] Masaki
    I'm way too happy!

SIGN    Wave 9    Forest Cup in Tsurigasaki
[03:26] announcer

[03:35] announcer

    I'll be providing the commentary.
[03:54] announcer
    I'm looking forward to working with you.
[04:00] Kosuke
    We managed to get split up pretty well.
[04:03] Yuta
    Let's meet at the finals.
[04:06] Masaki
    Oh man! I got myself so fired up
    I'm already getting hungry.
[04:10] Masaki
    I need an energy charge.
[04:17] Mori
    Hey.
[04:19] Mori
    I'm happy to see you all made it
    safely to the competition.
[04:23] Mori
    And, whatever else is to be said,
    the waves today are magnificent.
[04:29] Kosuke
    Yeah. These are
    the absolute best conditions!
[04:31] Yuta
    It really gets you excited, doesn't it?
[04:34] Naoya
    It's a perfect day for surfing!
[04:36] Naoya
    A perfect day for Miruru!
[04:37] Masaki
    Yeah! Let's enjoy this
    competition to the fullest!
[04:47] everyone
    Catch the wave!
[04:51] announcer
    Now, round 1, heat 1.
[04:53] announcer
    All the athletes are headed out.
[04:56] announcer
    The one to watch is world
    champion, Fuke Rindo.
[05:00] announcer
    Fuke, in red, has already caught a wave.
[05:05] Ohashi
    He's making full use of the wave's speed.
[05:15] Ohashi
    He cutback perfectly
    at the edge of the break.
[05:18] announcer
    Now that's what a champion looks like!
[05:20] announcer
    What beautiful, smooth riding!
[05:31] announcer
    First place, Fuke. Second, Kaneko.
[05:35] Masaki
    From the start, Fuke
    overwhelmed his opponents.
[05:39] Masaki
    And Kosuke and the others
    made it through on solid wins.
[05:52] Masaki
    Everyone's getting first...
[05:53] Masaki
    They're amazing!
[05:57] Masaki
    I've gotta give it my best, too.
[05:59] announcer
    And now, the final heat of round 1.
[06:04] announcer
    The one to watch is the promising
    rookie from Oarai, Hinaoka!
[06:08] announcer
    The source of his energy
    is dried sweet potatoes!
[06:12] Masaki
    Okay.
[06:17] Ohashi
    Hinaoka is really observing his wave.
[06:20] Ohashi
    He's very high on the wave,
    and he's going long, too.
[06:23] Ohashi
    I think we can expect
    a high score from this.
[06:27] Ohashi
    Hinaoka and Watanabe advance to round 2!
[06:31] Sakura
    Yes!
[06:32] Masaki's mom
    He's made it through the first round.
[06:34] Shoko
    That was an amazing floater, wasn't it?
[06:36] Shoko
    Masaki-kun has really improved.
[06:39] manager
    Okay! Just keep it going!
[06:41] announcer
    Next we have round 2, heat 1!
[06:44] announcer
    The one to watch is Matsukaze in white!
[06:51] Yuta
    My predictions and
    countermeasures are flawless.
[06:54] Yuta
    All that's left is to pick the right
    wave and issue a challenge!
[06:57] announcer
    How long will this Shonan-born thoroughbred
[06:59] announcer
    be able to keep up with world champion Fuke?
[07:05] announcer
    They haven't made a move yet.
[07:08] Ohashi
    Well, they've got some
    dumping waves mixed in, too,
[07:11] Ohashi
    so picking the right wave will be difficult.
[07:17] Yuta
    Not yet.
[07:18] Yuta
    I have to pick a wave with potential.
[07:22] others
    Huh?
[07:44] announcer
    He's through!
[07:48] announcer
    This is really amazing.
[07:51] announcer
    His challenging that wave
    defies common sense!
[07:54] Ohashi
    Yes.
[07:55] Ohahi
    A surfer's ride is judged on things
    like its aggressiveness, difficulty,
[07:58] Ohashi
    and whether or not it's innovative,
[08:00] Ohashi
    but in Fuke's case, he really
    is unsurpassed in every area.
[08:03] Ohashi
    He's really magnificent.
[08:09] Kosuke
    The fact that he can ride that is amazing!
[08:12] Masaki
    He's able to skillfully ride any wave...
[08:14] Masaki
    Fuke-san lives up to his hype!
[08:16] Naoya
    Matsukaze, don't panic.
[08:19] announcer
    There are less than ten minutes left.
[08:22] announcer
    Priority goes to Matsukaze in white.
[08:25] announcer
    He's currently in third and needs
    5.1 points to turn it around!
[08:36] Yuta
    The predicted potential is 50 percent.
[08:39] Yuta
    I'll wager everything on this one!
[08:55] Ohashi
    Oh. The wave didn't keep running.
[08:59] announcer
    Advancing to round 3
    will be Fuke and Murata!
[09:05] Kosuke
    Yuta, good work out there.
[09:07] Yuta
    While I was waiting for the ideal
    wave, I missed my chance.
[09:12] Yuta
    My read of the data
    is still sorely inadequate.
[09:16] announcer
    Moving on, we have round 2, heat 2.
[09:19] announcer
    The one to watch here is Iwana,
    whose home base is Shonan,
[09:22] announcer
    and the organizer of this competition, Mori!
[09:28] Ohashi
    Very nice.
[09:29] Ohashi
    His riding is passionate,
    and he's boldly coming in hard.
[09:35] announcer
    Such beautiful, polished action.
[09:38] announcer
    That's Mori William for you!
[09:44] announcer
    In heat 2, coming in first place is Iwana!
[09:47] announcer
    In second is Watanabe.
[09:49] announcer
    And Mori takes a very close third!
[09:52] Mori
    I don't think I lost
    in terms of heart, but...
[09:55] Mori
    I'll aim for another chance
    in the repêchage.
[09:58] announcer
    Now, round 2, the final heat!
[10:01] announcer
    The one to keep an eye on is Kido from Oita!
[10:04] announcer
    Breaking through the dimensional walls...
    What skills will he show us?
[10:08] Ohashi
    I'm hoping for big things from
    Hinaoka's dried sweet potato power, too.
[10:12] Naoya
    Miruru... Right now,
    the two of us will become one.
[10:19] Masaki
    This time, I will beat Naoya...
[10:21] Masaki
    No! I'll beat the two of them together!
[10:29] announcer
    Kido is working that lip
    with height and power!
[10:32] announcer
    He's making that spray fly!
[10:35] Naoya
    Become a weapon, Généroité!
[10:36] Naoya
    Miruru and I, together, Bon Vivant!
[10:47] announcer
    Kido and Hinaoka advance to round 3!
[10:51] Shoko
    He did it!
[10:54] Sakura
    You don't think the others got tripped up
    by the names of Naoya-san's moves...
[11:00] manager
    It's possible.
[11:03] Masaki
    After that, Bill and Yuta, who'd been
    eliminated from the main event,
[11:07] Masaki
    moved over to the repêchage event.
[11:09] Masaki
    Moving on to round 3 were Fuke,
    Kosuke, Naoya, Watanabe, Murata...
[11:18] Masaki
    and me.
[11:21] Masaki
    We're finally here.
[11:22] Masaki
    In the next heat, I go up against Fuke-san!
[11:28] Masaki
    Hooray!
[11:33] Naoya
    I'm in heat 2.
[11:34] Kosuke
    You're competing with me!
[11:40] Mori
    Rindo-kun, you're up against
    Masaki-kun, next, right?
[11:43] Mori
    He's an impressive rookie who
    appeared suddenly, like a comet,
[11:47] Mori
    so there isn't much data, and
    it's hard to anticipate what he'll do.
[11:50] Mori
    He might just be able to call down a storm.
[11:55] Fuke
    Where? The weather's perfectly clear.
[12:06] Tadao
    Hey.
[12:10] Fuke
    It's good to see you again.
[12:12] girl 1
    Wow! There's a legend!
[12:14] girl 2
    That's Tadao-san!
[12:15] girl 3
    What an amazing pairing!
[12:20] Tadao
    Yay!
[12:26] Masaki
    Fuke-san!
[12:27] Masaki
    That was amazing earlier!
[12:29] Fuke
    Who are you?
[12:31] Masaki
    I'm going up against you next, Fuke-san.
    My name is Hinaoka Masaki.
[12:34] Masaki
    I've been super excited wondering
    what kind of battle we might have!
[12:40] Masaki
    I started surfing because of a friend
    named Sho that I really admired...
[12:44] Masaki
    Oh! Sho's a genius...
[12:46] Masaki
    and he could ride any wave
    you threw at him and...
[12:49] Masaki
    When I saw you earlier, Fuke-san,
    for some reason you reminded me of Sho!
[12:53] Fuke
    Don't compare me to anyone else. I am me.
[13:01] Masaki
    Well, that's true.
[13:03] Masaki
    It's like, "Who do you
    think you are," right?
[13:13] Masaki
    Thanks.
[13:16] Masaki
    Yup. I'm fine.
[13:19] Masaki
    I'll do my best! I'm going to win!
[13:24] announcer
    Now we start round 3 of the main event!
[13:27] announcer
    Only one from each heat will survive.
[13:31] announcer
    First, we have heat 1.
[13:32] announcer
    Challenging the ultimate champion
    Fuke will be new star Hinaoka
[13:36] announcer
    and veteran Watanabe!
[13:38] Masaki
    First, I'll take priority!
[13:46] announcer
    They're going for the wave at the same time.
[13:48] announcer
    Closest to the peak is Hinaoka in white!
[13:52] Masaki
    I will take down Fuke-san!
[13:57] Ohashi
    That's some beautiful carving.
[13:58] announcer
    Oh, but how will this turn out?
[14:02] announcer
    He delivers!
[14:06] Ohashi
    Usually, you'd lose your balance there.
    He really showed some great control.
[14:09] announcer
    Hinaoka... His innate sense of balance
    is just as the rumors have it!
[14:14] announcer
    He really is captivating to watch!
[14:19] announcer
    Th-That's high!
[14:21] announcer
    It's as though he's going to
    soar right up into the sky!
[14:25] Ohashi
    With just that one maneuver,
    I'm sure we can expect to see high scores.
[14:28] announcer
    Far and away in first we have Fuke.
    He advances to the finals!
[14:32] announcer
    Watanabe and Hinaoka are headed
    to the repêchage
[14:34] announcer
    to aim for another chance!
[14:37] Masaki
    Huh? I... lost?
[14:42] Mori
    Come on, let's get back.
[14:45] announcer
    In round 3, heat 2, we have
    a roundup of powerhouses!
[14:49] announcer
    Which one of them will be
    advancing to the finals?
[14:59] announcer
    In first place, we have Iwana!
[15:01] announcer
    From the main event,
    advancing to the Grand Final
[15:03] announcer
    we have Fuke and Iwana!
[15:07] announcer
    And now, there are only two more
    who will move to the Grand Final.
[15:09] announcer
    First place in each of the heats
    in the repêchage will advance!
[15:15] Sakura
    Don't worry, Big Brother!
    You still have a chance!
[15:18] Masaki's mom
    Naoya-san, Yuta-san, fight!
[15:25] fan 1
    Miruru!
[15:27] fan 2
    Revolution Change!
[15:35] announcer
    We've got all the scores from the first run,
[15:38] announcer
    and Kido is in first place!
[15:40] announcer
    Now, for the second run.
[15:41] announcer
    Priority goes to Hinaoka,
    who was the first on the waves.
[15:49] announcer
    Oh! There's Ohara!
[15:51] announcer
    He caught the wave ahead of Hinaoka!
[15:56] Ohashi
    It has both speed and power.
[15:58] Ohashi
    He caught a good wave.
[16:01] announcer
    Hinaoka must be feeling pretty frustrated!
[16:05] Ohashi
    Yes.
[16:05] Ohashi
    In situations where you need a
    comeback, when you have priority,
[16:09] Ohashi
    you tend to overanalyze picking a wave.
[16:12] announcer
    He managed three off the lip maneuvers.
[16:15] Ohashi
    It was a decent ride.
[16:17] announcer
    And now Ohara has taken the top spot!
[16:20] announcer
    Second-place Kido needs 6.6 points
    to turn the tables and take the top spot.
[16:25] announcer
    Third-place Hinaoka needs 8.6 points!
[16:32] Masaki
    We have about 4 minutes left...
[16:35] Masaki
    I've got nothing left to protect!
[16:37] Masaki
    All I can do is attack!
[16:42] Ohashi
    We've got a set coming in.
[16:43] Ohashi
    Hinaoka in red is making his move!
[16:49] Masaki
    Let's go!
[16:54] announcer
    Oh! To wipe out here!
[17:01] Masaki
    Blast it...
[17:04] Ohashi
    He was aiming for the risky
    lip near the power zone,
[17:06] Ohashi
    but his timing was a little off.
[17:09] Ohashi
    However, his assertiveness was impressive.
[17:12] announcer
    Repêchage, round 5, heat 1, the one advancing
    to the Grand Final will be Ohara.
[17:19] Sakura
    It's over.
[17:22] Tadao
    Great! He pushed himself right to the end.
[17:26] manager
    Yes, he did.
[17:28] Masaki
    After that, Yuta fought a brave fight, too,
    but he ended in second place.
[17:32] Masaki
    We didn't manage to make it
    to the finals from the repêchage.
[17:37] announcer
    Forest Cup in Tsurigasaki!
[17:39] announcer
    We have finally arrived at the Grand Final!
[17:42] announcer
    Now, who will be the one
    to grab the glory here?
[17:46] announcer
    Will it be the ultimate champion, Fuke?
[17:48] announcer
    Or, will it be the birth of a new hero?
[17:56] Yuta
    Kosuke-san...
[17:58] Masaki
    You can do this!
[18:10] Kosuke
    Here it comes!
[18:15] announcer
    Fuke has caught the wave!
[18:48] announcer
    He's flying!
[18:50] Ohashi
    That's a rodeo flip! Beautiful!
[18:53] Ohashi
    There are only a few
    in the world who can make that!
[18:56] announcer
    Fuke delivers a maneuver
    of the highest difficulty!
[19:00] announcer
    How high can the score for this go?
[19:04] announcer
    There it is! A perfect score!
[19:08] Masaki
    Wow!
[19:10] Yuta
    The speed, the sharpness of
    technique... all of it was perfect!
[19:16] Kosuke
    Blast it!
[19:17] Kosuke
    All I can do is give it
    all the power I have!
[19:21] Masaki
    Kosuke pushed himself all the way
    to the very end of the time limit!
[19:27] Masaki
    In the end...
[19:30] announcer
    The winner is Fuke Rindo!
[19:36] crowd
    Rindo! Rindo! Rindo! Rindo!
[19:47] announcer
    And now the winner's cup
    will be presented to Fuke.
[19:51] Mori
    Congratulations on your win.
[19:54] Fuke
    Thank you.
[20:02] Mori
    Fuke, allow me to formally say
    that your riding was truly impressive.
[20:07] Mori
    I think that all the surfers
    you competed with
[20:09] Mori
    feel honored to have had a heat against you.
[20:12] Mori
    Can I ask, is there anyone who
    left a particular impression on you?
[20:18] Fuke
    It isn't about beating anyone
    or losing to anyone.
[20:21] Fuke
    It's always a battle against
    yourself and the waves.
[20:24] Masaki
    Fuke-san...
[20:26] Masaki
    He really is super cool!
[20:29] Masaki
    Back then, I didn't feel the
    slightest bit upset or frustrated.
[20:33] Masaki
    I was just excited, that's all.
[20:36] Kosuke
    Hey!
[20:37] Kosuke
    If you've got time
    to gaze in rapture at Fuke,
[20:39] Kosuke
    then you should do some training
    for the next competition!
[20:43] Kosuke
    Take that!
[20:50] Sakura
    Big Brother! Good work out there!
[20:53] Masaki
    Everyone, thank you for cheering me on!
[20:58] Masaki's mom
    They were good heats.
[21:00] Shoko
    I feel like... you gave me courage.
[21:04] manager
    Taking one sure step at a time...
    That's what's important.
[21:08] Masaki
    Yes, sir!
[21:17] Masaki's mom
    We should help, too.
[21:19] Shoko
    And do it with thanks to the ocean,
    a feeling of gratitude to the sea.
[21:25] Tadao
    A waterman's spirit.
[21:28] Sakura
    W-Water...
[21:29] Yuta
    Someone who knows the ocean,
    who understands it.
[21:32] Yuta
    It isn't just surfers,
[21:33] Yuta
    everyone who does water sports
    should aim for that ideal.
[21:38] Sakura
    Wow. A waterman, huh?
[21:55] Masaki
    The world competition was still very far away.
[22:02] Masaki
    I'm sure Sho could do that.
[22:06] Masaki
    But one day, I'll fly, too!
[22:09] Masaki
    Even higher... even farther!
[22:14] Masaki
    Right!
[22:15] Masaki
    Starting tomorrow,
    it's back to practicing hard!
