Thanks.

That's a nice photo.

boku ga boku no mama irareru basho sagasou

I'm gonna look for a place where I can stay the way I am.

tsuki ni terasare hashiridasu yo

Lit by the moon, I set off running.

furui shakai nado shikato shite

Ignore the old world and the old ways;

bokura ga terashi ruuru ni nare

live by the rules we bring to light.

hora! buchikowase kono te de

Look! Break it down with your own hands.

kimi ga kimi no mama motomeru basho wa doko

Where's a place where you can stay as you are?

dare no iinari ni mou naru na yo

Don't listen any more when people tell you what to do.

yume wa shinjiru furikazase

Believe in dreams and flaunt your power.

boku ga boku no mama iru tame ni wa itsumo

For me to stay as I am, I need

shinjita omae wa tsuranukunda

you, who always believed in me, to stick by me all the way,

sou da saigo wa kisu shitai

and at the very end, I want to kiss you.

TURN OVER

Feels like a whole different place.

Sort of... oppressive.

I don't wanna eat that.

The smell of oil and steel...

A smog of despair and dismay.

And jeez, the checkpoint guards were a pain in the ass. I thought they'd never let us through.

It's a shame your shoes won't be ready in time,

but an exhibition match is perfect for your debut.

There's no better place to get a feel for what a real match is like.

Still... Why must I pretend I'm a Bigfoot?

Well, honestly... if it comes out that you're a giant, explaining it will be a huge hassle.

Just bear with it a little while.

I'm not familiar with that Bigfoot.

A new type?

You look well, Haruka.

It's our new rookie.

I'm having him debut in today's game.

This entire town is the court for this match.

Your movements are completely unrestricted.

What about spectators?

It's complicated.

At the moment the Lunatic Company has this town under martial law.

Carrying on, basket A is there.

The Earthdash branch of Lunatic.

Basket B is at a place you know very well, young lady.

The house where you once lived with your mother, Sela D. Miranda.

That's the second goal.

I don't get it. What do you think you're doing?

Hold on...

I didn't make the decision, they did.

Your opponents, the Old-Timers.

They're local amateur Basquashers.

You...

They decided placement of the goals.

It's an exhibition match against amateurs, after all...

There's nothing wrong with letting them give you a little handicap.

Rosso, Giaro, Bianco...

It's been a long time, Miss Sela.

Rosso, doing this for a joke is rude.

Sela?

They worked for that man.

They taught me basketball.

Miss, you shouldn't call your father "that man."

At any rate, it seems introductions will be unnecessary.

Without further ado, the exhibition special!

Basket A, Team Basquash!

Basket B, the Old-Timers!

Their quarter-length match will now begin!

Damn!

Bianco!

What are you really plotting?

I'm just doing my utmost to ensure that you can all happily go to Mooneyes.

James Lone...

Do you really think this farce will move the kingdom and the moon to act again?

Too easy, old man!

What?!

Rosso!

Nice miss!

Sela!

Bastard!

Dan!

Nice one, Navi!

Rosso?

Miss Sela,

isn't it about time you figured out what the Don was feeling?

What? So it matters now?

He abandoned me and Mom!

I bet he's happy he got killed for the sake of the Family!

I don't let anyone get away with that kind of degenerate disrespect, not even the Don's daughter.

For old fogeys, they're really not bad.

What decides winners and losers in Basquash isn't physical ability, it's technique and feel.

Momentum alone won't take you to the top.

Dan!

Shit!

What the hell are these guys?

Ouch.

They aren't doing anything special.

They're just sticking to the fundamentals.

But their level is incredibly high...

Deciding in an instant and reacting with precision.

You little...

So they're a tough nut to crack.

It's a wide world.

You gotta be kidding me!

So then we just gotta think faster and move faster than these old men!

Sela!

Dan?

Nice pass!

Dan, help Sela!

Quick!

Got it!

Roger!

Sela!

Navi?

This time, Dan's the screener!

I can't believe it!

Change a person's environment, and sometimes you trigger a metamorphosis.

Isn't it time you figured out what the Don was feeling?

There, Miss!

Slam dunk!

Navi!

Sela!

Take it up!

Basquat the hell out of it!

Sela!

Sela...

Basquash!

Incredible...

Speaking.

You did it after all, James.

If it isn't General Manager Yan.

I'm glad to know you're unharmed.

Thank you for your concern.

Still, I never suspected this from you.

Pardon? I'm not sure what you mean.

Don't try to fool me.

Every facility destroyed in that game was part of the Turbine City redevelopment project!

This is without a doubt a terrorist act.

No, you're wrong.

This is a sport.

Pretentious basketball lowlifes!

Don't think you'll get away with it!

Game over. Game over.

Game over.

That was a picture-perfect dunk, Miss Sela.

Rosso.

I won't ask you to think of the Don's feelings any more.

Someday when the time is right, I think you'll understand.

I'm not surprised, Dunk Mask.

It's your team's victory.

We'll have to do this again sometime.

Well, yeah!

The basquashing heart is always young!

Yeah, even if you got one foot in the grave.

That call you took after Sela dunked...

You mean, they might croak on the court?

A town exploited for conflict...

I don't think that girl's father wanted any part of such a town.

Do you?

To steal lives... to even steal voices raised in joy...

What do you hate that much, Yan Harris?

Navi.

Um, I, uh...

You played well today.

I'll raise my opinion of you, a little.

I'm glad.

But if you peek at me in the bath, I will not forgive you.

That was an accident.

Idiot!

About that photograph...

Photograph?

Why did you say it was a nice photo?

You were laughing as if you were having fun.

You looked happy.

Oh.

Yeah.

Thanks, Navi.

Sela?

That's good, Sela.

Sela, be happy.

Daddy!

The first time I ever saw a ball...

He spun the basketball on his fingertip for us.

Wow!

Coco, you might have the makings of a professional basketball player.

Yeah! That's what I'm gonna be!

If you're a truly fine player... That's right.

Huh? What?

I'll take you with me to the moon.

Every day was fun. I was happy.

I just dribbled as hard as I could, aiming for the basket.

It hurts!

Coco!

With the present he gave me...

My world expanded.

I learned how to work on the Net and earn a living.

To lighten my brother's burden.

My brother changed after my injury.

You're going down,

BFB!

"Bigfoot Basketball is coming to Rollingtown:

Rolling Arena's Inaugural Game BFB League Regulars Match"?

I'll crush them.

You really do hate Bigfoots, don't you?

The giant-footed mechs that stole Coco's future, huh?

I'm home!

Coco, today I got you a present you're gonna like for sure!

What do you think it is?

I came first.

Try guessing, Coco!

He would do anything for me.

He worked his heart out for me.

It felt heavy, like I couldn't breathe.

The only thing I could do for him was refuse.

Even if that meant hurting him.

Miyuki gave my brother a chance.

And that became the catalyst for street-style BFB to explode on Earthdash.

Go!

Sorry, but this is as far as you get!

Stop it!

I don't wanna remember!

Ow!

Ow! I'm gonna die!

Come on, get a grip...

Just stop it, please!

Rouge!

Rouge!

Now!

A three-pointer!

There, you finally got some points.

Showdown time, Idol Red!

Don't cry when you lose!

Bring it on!

Citron, head him off!

You won't get past!

Mine!

What?!

Gotcha!

Destroy!

But... How did my brother master a Bigfoot so quickly?

Okay then!

Luck? Talent?

I have a feeling it isn't that simple.

Not a patient guy!

Is that your whole strategy?!

Not quite!

Come on! Now we're really gonna get started!

Is that... the legendary...?

The legend...

Long, long ago,

in an age of myth, the Gods dashed through the depths of space.

They would grab a star, stealing it back and forth, vying for absolute supremacy.

And one day...

One of them dunked it right into this world.

At the end of their furious struggle,

the gods' footprints became the seas and the rivers,

and the marks left by the dunk became the cornerstones of civilization.

Open City Basketball!

This is the birth of a new sport!

So this is the street style!

It's as entertaining as I thought!

It would be a waste to let butterfingered amateurs have all the fun!

Dumbass!

Court? Rules? Referee?

Nothing about this basketball is "open" or "city"!

Watch.

This is Basquash!

Like this!

These cramped, little lines can eat shit!

We don't have bounds!

This...

...is my answer!

Basquash!

Did you get that, you bubble-blowing bastard?

I confirm that I've received your answer!

Dunk Mask is banned for life!

Dumbass!

It's no hardship to be banned from a group I never joined!

Oh, that's right.

I forgot one.

Here!

The people from the moon are seeking the legend's power.

They tried to become the legend, but didn't make it.

I flunked out long before they did though.

That was truly a tragedy.

The moon might look like a unified monolith, but that's far from the case.

An opposing group set that trap...

It wasn't an accident.

They were stupid.

It was no time to be squabbling over leadership.

Thanks to them the plan was delayed for years.

But thanks to that, my brother is basquatting.

Basquatting, is he?

Taking a zigzagging path down a straight line.

Becoming a fierce and burning power.

Beautiful.

It's closer again.

As if you could reach out and touch the city lights...

That's Dan, isn't it?

Thank you.

For taking me with you to the moon.

I promised, didn't I?

If you became a fine player, I'd take you.

That is your Basquash, isn't it?

You're a truly fine player.

Basquash...

sora wa takaku kaze wa nagarete

The sky is high, the winds are blowing.

tsuki no hadou wo yami ni toketeku

The moon's surge dissolves into the darkness.

dakara ima wa mae dake wo muki

So, right now, never look back.

BELIEVE YOUR LOVE kono michi wo

Believe your love and the path you're on.

nageki no seiza no shirabe wo

Engrave the song of the constellation of grief

mune ni kizamu soshite hashiri dasu

in your heart and take off running.

bokura wa itsumo nayami nagara

We're always unsure; we're always searching

setsuna no kibou wo sagashiteiru

for a fleeting moment's hope.

shiro to kuro oto ga majiwaru toki

When the sounds of black and white mix together,

kitto kitto hatenaku

I know it will be limitless.

hikari no saki ni mieru michi wo

I dreamed that we walked together

futari de aruku yume wo mita yo

on the path I can see beyond the light.

itoshisa sore wa wasureteita

Till now, I'd forgotten love.

kimi e no yakusoku

It's my promise to you.

Area zero,

the place where everything began.

Area zero,

that sad place.

But,

we must go!
