1
00:00:02,523 --> 00:00:05,693
Chinatsu Senpai and Haryu Senpai?

2
00:00:09,238 --> 00:00:12,032
I'm sure they're just friends!

3
00:00:12,116 --> 00:00:14,326
I mean, we're walking home together too!

4
00:00:15,202 --> 00:00:16,579
You're right!

5
00:00:16,662 --> 00:00:18,831
Walking home together is just normal!

6
00:00:18,914 --> 00:00:20,082
Exactly.

7
00:00:20,916 --> 00:00:22,251
Yeah, exactly!

8
00:00:25,671 --> 00:00:26,672
Wha?!

9
00:00:27,173 --> 00:00:28,883
They're both superstars after all.

10
00:00:28,966 --> 00:00:29,842
Well...

11
00:00:30,593 --> 00:00:34,680
They're in the same class,
and they sit together.

12
00:00:34,764 --> 00:00:37,349
Plus, they were both selected
to be class reps.

13
00:00:37,892 --> 00:00:40,728
- You're using foreign words.
- Not your world, huh?

14
00:00:40,811 --> 00:00:42,229
SAME CLASS, SIT TOGETHER, BOTH REPS

15
00:00:42,313 --> 00:00:44,440
Don't worry about it.

16
00:00:44,523 --> 00:00:48,068
Chinatsu Senpai said
she wanted to focus on basketball anyway.

17
00:00:48,152 --> 00:00:49,487
Maybe.

18
00:00:49,570 --> 00:00:53,240
But you can't stop yourself
from falling in love!

19
00:00:53,324 --> 00:00:55,201
You've got a point there.

20
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,496
Who actually says that in real life?

21
00:01:03,250 --> 00:01:06,504
BLUE BOX

22
00:02:23,038 --> 00:02:28,961
BLUE BOX

23
00:02:29,670 --> 00:02:32,715
EPISODE 3
CHII

24
00:02:32,798 --> 00:02:35,259
How's the team looking this year?

25
00:02:35,342 --> 00:02:38,470
Our leading talents are
the third-years plus Haryu.

26
00:02:39,221 --> 00:02:41,557
I guess Haryu's on another level?

27
00:02:41,640 --> 00:02:45,227
He's got the potential
to compete on the national stage.

28
00:02:45,311 --> 00:02:48,731
But personally,
I've got high hopes for him too.

29
00:02:53,944 --> 00:02:55,988
Sorry about the ball!

30
00:02:58,198 --> 00:02:59,575
Chinatsu Senpai!

31
00:03:01,118 --> 00:03:04,997
Looking at her
just reminds me of yesterday.

32
00:03:06,165 --> 00:03:07,499
- Okay, then.
- Wait!

33
00:03:08,334 --> 00:03:10,502
When do you get off practice today?

34
00:03:12,046 --> 00:03:14,006
I forgot my house key.

35
00:03:14,089 --> 00:03:16,258
And your folks said they'd be out.

36
00:03:17,176 --> 00:03:18,177
At 7:00.

37
00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:22,264
- Wait, what if someone overhears us?
- My practice ends at 7:00 too.

38
00:03:23,098 --> 00:03:24,350
- Then--
- Chii.

39
00:03:24,433 --> 00:03:26,685
Does your team have an extra timer?

40
00:03:27,353 --> 00:03:28,604
- Ours is broken.
- Chii?

41
00:03:28,687 --> 00:03:30,147
I don't think we do.

42
00:03:30,230 --> 00:03:31,273
I figured.

43
00:03:31,357 --> 00:03:35,778
Did he just call Chinatsu Senpai "Chii"?

44
00:03:38,864 --> 00:03:40,783
I'm so jealous!

45
00:03:40,866 --> 00:03:43,786
How close are they?

46
00:03:43,869 --> 00:03:48,290
Not only do I call her Chinatsu,
I even add the "senpai" honorific!

47
00:03:48,374 --> 00:03:50,042
- Chii!
- Plus!

48
00:03:50,125 --> 00:03:51,293
- Yes?
- She seems okay with it.

49
00:03:51,377 --> 00:03:52,461
- Hey, Chii!
- Hi!

50
00:03:52,544 --> 00:03:55,172
{\an8}What would I have to do to call her that?

51
00:03:55,256 --> 00:03:57,299
{\an8}- May I call you Chii?
- Yes.

52
00:03:57,383 --> 00:03:58,259
INOMATA

53
00:03:58,342 --> 00:03:59,510
Since they're classmates?

54
00:03:59,593 --> 00:04:00,886
Since they sit together?

55
00:04:01,512 --> 00:04:05,266
Or is it because
they're both superstars on their teams?

56
00:04:09,728 --> 00:04:10,938
I'm so lame.

57
00:04:11,939 --> 00:04:14,191
There's no point dwelling on this.

58
00:04:14,984 --> 00:04:16,610
There's nothing I can do.

59
00:04:16,694 --> 00:04:19,697
I can never be the same grade as her.

60
00:04:20,447 --> 00:04:22,950
Even if she told me I could call her Chii,

61
00:04:23,492 --> 00:04:24,702
I couldn't.

62
00:04:25,577 --> 00:04:26,954
If we didn't live together...

63
00:04:27,621 --> 00:04:29,957
if we weren't in such close proximity...

64
00:04:30,624 --> 00:04:32,543
I wouldn't be struggling with this.

65
00:04:35,629 --> 00:04:37,715
Chi... na... tsu--

66
00:04:37,798 --> 00:04:39,466
- I'm home.
- Senpai!

67
00:04:40,342 --> 00:04:41,552
What's wrong?

68
00:04:41,635 --> 00:04:42,720
It's nothing.

69
00:04:42,803 --> 00:04:45,848
I'm such a creep!

70
00:04:45,931 --> 00:04:48,726
Lame plus creep equals me!

71
00:04:51,312 --> 00:04:53,772
You got home fast.

72
00:04:55,566 --> 00:04:57,026
When I was heading home,

73
00:04:57,109 --> 00:04:59,987
the badminton players
were just going into their clubroom.

74
00:05:00,863 --> 00:05:04,241
You said practice ended at 7:00,
but I guess it ran long.

75
00:05:05,534 --> 00:05:07,244
What is wrong with me?

76
00:05:08,829 --> 00:05:10,914
All she did was say "badminton players,"

77
00:05:11,498 --> 00:05:14,501
and all I'm thinking is that she means
Haryu Senpai.

78
00:05:15,586 --> 00:05:17,838
- Sorry, I'll go to my room.
- Wait.

79
00:05:20,466 --> 00:05:21,425
Sorry.

80
00:05:22,301 --> 00:05:24,261
I wanted to ask you something.

81
00:05:25,220 --> 00:05:27,264
I'll be embarrassed
if I'm wrong about this.

82
00:05:28,098 --> 00:05:30,017
But did you run home?

83
00:05:30,851 --> 00:05:34,021
I noticed you sweating,
so I thought maybe you did.

84
00:05:34,104 --> 00:05:35,647
Is that because

85
00:05:35,731 --> 00:05:37,858
I went home earlier than you

86
00:05:37,941 --> 00:05:40,652
and you didn't want
to keep me waiting outside?

87
00:05:44,031 --> 00:05:46,283
- How did she notice that?
- I did wait at school.

88
00:05:46,366 --> 00:05:50,037
All I've done is worry about
what to call her.

89
00:05:51,205 --> 00:05:54,166
But knowing how carefully
she was watching me,

90
00:05:54,249 --> 00:05:57,211
makes me so happy that
I don't care about that anymore.

91
00:05:57,294 --> 00:05:58,545
If you did,

92
00:06:00,047 --> 00:06:01,799
nice save.

93
00:06:04,384 --> 00:06:06,428
No, you're wrong!

94
00:06:06,512 --> 00:06:09,556
I just thought I'd squeeze
in training on the way home!

95
00:06:10,599 --> 00:06:12,893
You know, I think I'll go on another run!

96
00:06:16,897 --> 00:06:20,150
This living situation
is just messing with my head.

97
00:06:20,651 --> 00:06:23,195
I'm no match for him anyway.

98
00:06:23,904 --> 00:06:27,866
It doesn't matter who she's with,
or what they call her.

99
00:06:27,950 --> 00:06:30,410
If I start worrying about that,
I'll go crazy.

100
00:06:30,494 --> 00:06:33,330
Right now, I need to focus
on the intradepartmental matches.

101
00:06:34,581 --> 00:06:38,335
But hearing him call her "Chii"
might still get to me.

102
00:06:40,921 --> 00:06:42,840
In! Game! Inomata!

103
00:06:43,507 --> 00:06:46,176
{\an8}You won again? You're on a roll.

104
00:06:46,260 --> 00:06:47,344
{\an8}Yeah.

105
00:06:48,011 --> 00:06:50,806
But I've basically only faced first-years.

106
00:06:50,889 --> 00:06:53,559
I haven't played any starters yet.

107
00:06:54,184 --> 00:06:55,602
Besides...

108
00:06:55,686 --> 00:06:58,605
It looks like Haryu Senpai
won every match.

109
00:06:59,565 --> 00:07:01,066
That reminds me.

110
00:07:01,150 --> 00:07:04,111
What was the deal
with Chinatsu Senpai and Haryu Senpai?

111
00:07:04,194 --> 00:07:05,362
About that...

112
00:07:06,196 --> 00:07:08,240
It doesn't matter what's between them,

113
00:07:08,323 --> 00:07:10,784
I won't let it get to me anymore!

114
00:07:10,868 --> 00:07:12,703
Sounds like you already failed.

115
00:07:12,786 --> 00:07:14,121
Oh, well.

116
00:07:17,207 --> 00:07:20,878
I feel weird being a senpai.

117
00:07:21,628 --> 00:07:24,089
- I don't care!
- Then why are you turning around?

118
00:07:24,923 --> 00:07:27,384
The badminton team
is running scrimmages, right?

119
00:07:27,468 --> 00:07:29,928
Yeah, and he's won all his matches.

120
00:07:30,012 --> 00:07:31,305
Only so far.

121
00:07:31,388 --> 00:07:32,764
So modest.

122
00:07:32,848 --> 00:07:34,683
We still have more games.

123
00:07:34,766 --> 00:07:35,851
It's just the start.

124
00:07:35,934 --> 00:07:37,644
I see. Good luck.

125
00:07:37,728 --> 00:07:39,354
Thanks.

126
00:07:39,438 --> 00:07:40,856
I don't care.

127
00:07:40,939 --> 00:07:43,400
You two have been awful chummy lately.

128
00:07:44,193 --> 00:07:46,445
You've been hanging out with Kano a lot.

129
00:07:46,528 --> 00:07:48,655
We do sit next to each other in class.

130
00:07:48,739 --> 00:07:50,741
Yeah? Is that all?

131
00:07:50,824 --> 00:07:52,075
- That's all.
- He's melting.

132
00:07:52,159 --> 00:07:54,161
We're both busy with sports.

133
00:07:54,244 --> 00:07:55,412
But...

134
00:07:56,288 --> 00:07:59,416
there's something nice
about seeing a girl work hard.

135
00:07:59,500 --> 00:08:02,002
- Wait, are you saying...?
- No.

136
00:08:04,505 --> 00:08:05,672
Oh, boy.

137
00:08:05,756 --> 00:08:07,883
This is some bad timing.

138
00:08:10,511 --> 00:08:12,429
Love-all. Play.

139
00:08:16,517 --> 00:08:17,935
In. Five-one.

140
00:08:18,018 --> 00:08:20,354
Haryu's dictating the pace.

141
00:08:20,437 --> 00:08:22,231
He doesn't let you attack.

142
00:08:22,314 --> 00:08:23,941
He's like a brick wall.

143
00:08:24,650 --> 00:08:28,278
Is he okay? This looks really one-sided.

144
00:08:28,362 --> 00:08:29,446
What's he gonna do?

145
00:08:29,530 --> 00:08:31,156
They're on different levels.

146
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,784
And he has a whole year
of experience over him.

147
00:08:36,537 --> 00:08:37,704
This has to be tough.

148
00:08:38,872 --> 00:08:41,458
Facing an opponent
who's close to his crush.

149
00:08:41,542 --> 00:08:44,211
Someone who might even like her too.

150
00:08:45,504 --> 00:08:48,006
Plus, he's closer to achieving his goals.

151
00:08:48,757 --> 00:08:51,301
With such a clear display of dominance,

152
00:08:51,385 --> 00:08:54,096
it's like he's being told
to give up on both.

153
00:08:59,643 --> 00:09:01,812
- Natsu!
- Coming!

154
00:09:05,482 --> 00:09:06,817
In. Eleven-four.

155
00:09:06,900 --> 00:09:09,403
Looks like another win for Haryu.

156
00:09:09,486 --> 00:09:12,322
Man, he's strong.
Can someone beat him already?

157
00:09:14,741 --> 00:09:17,119
You okay? Drink some water.

158
00:09:17,202 --> 00:09:18,161
Hey.

159
00:09:19,621 --> 00:09:21,582
Wasn't I super close on that last one?

160
00:09:22,833 --> 00:09:24,918
I was slow getting back in position.

161
00:09:25,586 --> 00:09:27,838
I have trouble staying active.

162
00:09:27,921 --> 00:09:29,214
You seem charged up.

163
00:09:30,424 --> 00:09:31,842
I got my run in before this.

164
00:09:31,925 --> 00:09:33,719
Not that.

165
00:09:33,802 --> 00:09:35,637
I thought you'd be more bothered.

166
00:09:35,721 --> 00:09:37,097
Like, about what happened earlier.

167
00:09:41,310 --> 00:09:45,188
I do have to thank Chinatsu Senpai
for motivating me even more.

168
00:09:46,315 --> 00:09:50,861
I never want to use her
as an excuse for when I lose.

169
00:09:51,987 --> 00:09:55,365
It's not like I play badminton
only for her sake.

170
00:09:56,158 --> 00:09:57,409
Deep down,

171
00:09:58,201 --> 00:09:59,453
I just love badminton.

172
00:10:00,662 --> 00:10:01,955
Taiki. Clock's ticking.

173
00:10:02,039 --> 00:10:02,873
Coming!

174
00:10:03,665 --> 00:10:05,167
Still, I need to adjust.

175
00:10:18,680 --> 00:10:20,182
I decided I'm going for it.

176
00:10:20,807 --> 00:10:22,601
I have to keep pushing forward.

177
00:10:25,646 --> 00:10:26,813
One step at a time.

178
00:10:27,397 --> 00:10:29,191
Nice return.

179
00:10:29,274 --> 00:10:30,442
But he hit it back.

180
00:10:30,525 --> 00:10:31,777
Hang in there, Taiki!

181
00:10:31,860 --> 00:10:32,694
One step.

182
00:10:34,321 --> 00:10:35,197
It's up.

183
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,541
Close one.

184
00:10:46,625 --> 00:10:48,210
You started rallying.

185
00:10:48,877 --> 00:10:50,962
But you should be happy.

186
00:10:51,588 --> 00:10:53,507
You may have lost to Haryu Senpai,

187
00:10:53,590 --> 00:10:55,842
but that performance
will get you on the team.

188
00:10:59,346 --> 00:11:01,181
You don't look happy.

189
00:11:01,264 --> 00:11:02,849
I mean, I lost.

190
00:11:03,642 --> 00:11:06,603
And those points I got
in the second half felt scrappy.

191
00:11:07,145 --> 00:11:10,357
He dictated the pace
throughout the whole match.

192
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,274
{\an8}BURNABLE TRASH

193
00:11:11,358 --> 00:11:13,860
{\an8}I knew that Haryu Senpai was tough.

194
00:11:15,404 --> 00:11:17,155
But I'm still frustrated I lost.

195
00:11:19,449 --> 00:11:21,368
You hear that?

196
00:11:21,451 --> 00:11:23,120
That little punk.

197
00:11:23,203 --> 00:11:25,831
I'm the one who's frustrated.

198
00:11:25,914 --> 00:11:27,833
Why? You won.

199
00:11:29,793 --> 00:11:31,211
Because at the end...

200
00:11:32,796 --> 00:11:34,756
What? You can't leave me hanging!

201
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,299
Come on, tell me!

202
00:11:37,843 --> 00:11:40,804
Of course it's not just going to work out.

203
00:11:40,887 --> 00:11:42,722
I was facing Haryu Senpai after all.

204
00:11:43,348 --> 00:11:48,019
He's got me beat
in technique, speed, and power.

205
00:11:48,103 --> 00:11:50,564
I need to play more aggressively.

206
00:11:51,314 --> 00:11:53,775
And read my opponent for better placement.

207
00:11:53,859 --> 00:11:55,735
I have to smash any easy shots.

208
00:11:56,570 --> 00:11:59,114
I need to build more experience
to pull that off.

209
00:11:59,739 --> 00:12:01,783
I'm not practicing enough at all.

210
00:12:01,867 --> 00:12:02,868
Taiki!

211
00:12:04,786 --> 00:12:05,787
Follow me!

212
00:12:05,871 --> 00:12:06,872
Chinatsu Senpai?

213
00:12:06,955 --> 00:12:09,291
The sun will set soon. Come on, hurry up!

214
00:12:09,374 --> 00:12:11,877
Wait, where are we going?

215
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,128
Someplace nice!

216
00:12:16,339 --> 00:12:19,426
I mean, I guess it's nice.

217
00:12:19,509 --> 00:12:21,011
But why the park?

218
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,180
Well...

219
00:12:23,263 --> 00:12:26,433
Ta-da! I borrowed these.

220
00:12:27,809 --> 00:12:29,936
Why did you borrow badminton rackets?

221
00:12:30,562 --> 00:12:32,564
You said we should play sometime.

222
00:12:34,149 --> 00:12:35,901
She remembered!

223
00:12:36,401 --> 00:12:40,822
Besides, I figured you'd want
to practice some more.

224
00:12:40,906 --> 00:12:44,826
I'm usually most motivated
right after a game.

225
00:12:44,910 --> 00:12:47,329
I thought you might be the same.

226
00:12:47,996 --> 00:12:51,750
Having someone
who understands how you feel

227
00:12:52,459 --> 00:12:53,835
is really nice.

228
00:12:54,336 --> 00:12:55,337
Ready?

229
00:12:59,883 --> 00:13:01,218
You can't even hit it?

230
00:13:01,301 --> 00:13:03,595
No, I'm just not good at serves!

231
00:13:04,804 --> 00:13:07,224
You're moving your left hand too much.

232
00:13:07,307 --> 00:13:10,435
The left hand just drops it
and the racket does the rest.

233
00:13:15,106 --> 00:13:17,067
That was perfect advice!

234
00:13:17,150 --> 00:13:18,527
You're acting too surprised.

235
00:13:18,610 --> 00:13:22,155
But this will just be practice for me.

236
00:13:22,239 --> 00:13:23,740
You should do smashes.

237
00:13:23,823 --> 00:13:25,033
It's fine.

238
00:13:25,116 --> 00:13:26,660
I hit enough during the match.

239
00:13:26,743 --> 00:13:30,163
I was watching your match against Haryu.

240
00:13:31,122 --> 00:13:33,083
Please erase that from your memory.

241
00:13:33,166 --> 00:13:34,167
Why?

242
00:13:34,251 --> 00:13:36,211
Because it's embarrassing.

243
00:13:36,294 --> 00:13:37,420
Since I lost.

244
00:13:37,504 --> 00:13:38,838
It's not embarrassing.

245
00:13:38,922 --> 00:13:41,550
You started landing
those smashes towards the end.

246
00:13:41,633 --> 00:13:42,676
Yeah, but...

247
00:13:43,468 --> 00:13:46,680
Besides, at the interval
of the second game,

248
00:13:46,763 --> 00:13:48,473
it was eleven-four.

249
00:13:48,557 --> 00:13:53,061
And in the time it took him
to score another 10 points to get to 21,

250
00:13:53,144 --> 00:13:55,522
you scored 11 points.

251
00:13:56,106 --> 00:13:56,940
What?

252
00:13:59,651 --> 00:14:01,528
But a loss is a loss!

253
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,490
He totally outplayed me in the first half.

254
00:14:05,574 --> 00:14:07,617
It doesn't matter how much
I scored the second half.

255
00:14:07,701 --> 00:14:08,785
I still lost.

256
00:14:13,707 --> 00:14:15,417
What are you laughing at?

257
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:16,543
Sorry.

258
00:14:17,210 --> 00:14:19,796
You really hate losing, don't you?

259
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:21,673
Don't swing with your upper body!

260
00:14:21,756 --> 00:14:22,841
Use your legs!

261
00:14:22,924 --> 00:14:23,884
Yes, sir!

262
00:14:24,634 --> 00:14:26,595
Whenever someone gives you instructions,

263
00:14:26,678 --> 00:14:29,306
you work on it
all throughout morning practice.

264
00:14:29,973 --> 00:14:34,060
Even during your match against Haryu,
you never gave up.

265
00:14:34,144 --> 00:14:36,813
That's why you scored in the second half.

266
00:14:37,814 --> 00:14:39,316
So don't worry.

267
00:14:41,359 --> 00:14:44,029
You'll be fine!

268
00:14:45,739 --> 00:14:47,574
Being so untalented,

269
00:14:47,657 --> 00:14:51,828
it's hard for me to believe in myself.

270
00:14:53,622 --> 00:14:54,581
I'll win next time.

271
00:14:55,665 --> 00:14:56,666
That's the spirit!

272
00:14:58,084 --> 00:15:02,589
But I can easily believe
anything the person I like says.

273
00:15:05,675 --> 00:15:06,843
YUKIKO

274
00:15:08,553 --> 00:15:10,013
It's from Yukiko.

275
00:15:10,096 --> 00:15:10,972
My mom?

276
00:15:11,056 --> 00:15:13,141
She's asking what time we'll be home.

277
00:15:14,309 --> 00:15:15,310
{\an8}"Chii"?

278
00:15:15,810 --> 00:15:18,063
Is that from Haryu Senpai?

279
00:15:18,146 --> 00:15:20,231
Don't tell me he gave that to her.

280
00:15:20,857 --> 00:15:22,067
Oh, this?

281
00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:24,152
They're from my classmates.

282
00:15:24,861 --> 00:15:27,155
They call me "Chii" in class.

283
00:15:28,615 --> 00:15:31,910
So it wasn't a pet name
only Haryu Senpai uses.

284
00:15:33,995 --> 00:15:37,165
Chinatsu Senpai has always been
so approachable.

285
00:15:37,248 --> 00:15:40,251
Maybe she really isn't interested
in any kind of romance right now.

286
00:15:41,628 --> 00:15:43,380
Ready to go?

287
00:15:43,463 --> 00:15:44,965
Go on ahead without me.

288
00:15:46,049 --> 00:15:48,426
There will be a lot of people around...

289
00:15:49,344 --> 00:15:52,347
and while it might not bother you at all,

290
00:15:52,430 --> 00:15:56,142
it's a little embarrassing to walk back
to the same house with a girl.

291
00:15:57,394 --> 00:15:59,229
I'll do a few more practice swings.

292
00:16:08,196 --> 00:16:11,449
"It might not bother you," huh?

293
00:16:14,285 --> 00:16:16,413
So that's how it seems to him.

294
00:16:21,209 --> 00:16:23,128
{\an8}EIMEI PRIVATE HIGH SCHOOL

295
00:16:23,878 --> 00:16:25,630
What? Why?

296
00:16:26,423 --> 00:16:28,883
DOUBLES
HARYU AND INOMATA

297
00:16:29,634 --> 00:16:32,387
I'm playing doubles with Haryu Senpai?

298
00:16:33,096 --> 00:16:36,641
But I'm trying to take him down.

299
00:16:36,725 --> 00:16:37,976
Yeah.

300
00:16:38,059 --> 00:16:40,895
Going to nationals
with your romantic rival sounds awkward.

301
00:16:42,605 --> 00:16:45,608
Even disregarding the fact
I like Chinatsu Senpai, I--

302
00:16:45,692 --> 00:16:46,901
Taiki.

303
00:16:47,610 --> 00:16:48,903
Let's practice.

304
00:16:48,987 --> 00:16:50,405
Okay.

305
00:16:51,322 --> 00:16:54,909
You'll be following a regimen
I come up with for the time being.

306
00:16:54,993 --> 00:16:56,578
Thank goodness.

307
00:16:56,661 --> 00:16:58,955
It doesn't seem like he overheard that.

308
00:16:59,039 --> 00:16:59,914
So...

309
00:17:01,249 --> 00:17:03,918
you like Chinatsu Kano, huh?

310
00:17:06,963 --> 00:17:08,548
How interesting.

311
00:17:09,507 --> 00:17:13,428
This is the worst start
a doubles pair can have!

312
00:17:15,805 --> 00:17:16,806
Way too slow!

313
00:17:16,890 --> 00:17:18,433
You're lagging!

314
00:17:18,516 --> 00:17:19,434
Okay!

315
00:17:19,517 --> 00:17:21,603
Haryu is one tough dude.

316
00:17:21,686 --> 00:17:25,607
They did running, circuit training,
and footwork exercises before this.

317
00:17:25,690 --> 00:17:27,525
I'd be puking by now.

318
00:17:30,612 --> 00:17:31,946
You getting tired yet?

319
00:17:32,655 --> 00:17:34,074
Tell me if you need a break.

320
00:17:34,157 --> 00:17:35,992
I can't have you passing out.

321
00:17:36,076 --> 00:17:41,456
But... I've never seen Chii
whine about being too tired.

322
00:17:42,290 --> 00:17:46,836
I bet any guy she ends up dating
will be cool and tough like her.

323
00:17:48,296 --> 00:17:50,548
What shall we do next?

324
00:17:50,632 --> 00:17:52,759
Rotation practice. Five two-minute reps.

325
00:18:00,642 --> 00:18:02,852
You look like a mushroom
growing from the desk.

326
00:18:02,936 --> 00:18:04,729
And not a nutritious one.

327
00:18:04,813 --> 00:18:06,231
Shut up.

328
00:18:07,232 --> 00:18:12,237
He's been physically working me
to death over the last week.

329
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,491
The classroom
is the only place I can rest.

330
00:18:16,574 --> 00:18:18,493
- What about home?
- I'm surprised.

331
00:18:19,494 --> 00:18:22,497
I didn't think Haryu Senpai
would work with you so much.

332
00:18:22,580 --> 00:18:25,208
He didn't seem like the team player type.

333
00:18:26,417 --> 00:18:28,211
So this Haryu Senpai

334
00:18:28,294 --> 00:18:31,548
is the guy who was walking home
with Chinatsu Senpai, right?

335
00:18:31,631 --> 00:18:33,007
So maybe he's like...

336
00:18:33,967 --> 00:18:36,261
"Don't make a move on my girl,"

337
00:18:36,344 --> 00:18:37,887
and messing with you.

338
00:18:38,596 --> 00:18:39,514
You're beneath me.

339
00:18:39,597 --> 00:18:42,600
He's trying to make you give up
by putting you in your place.

340
00:18:44,894 --> 00:18:47,772
The truth is, I do feel inferior to him.

341
00:18:47,856 --> 00:18:51,818
Even though we do the same regimen,
his speed never slows down,

342
00:18:51,901 --> 00:18:53,570
and his shots are so accurate.

343
00:18:54,863 --> 00:18:59,284
I bet badminton is fun when you have
such a great physical foundation.

344
00:18:59,367 --> 00:19:00,702
Badminton freak.

345
00:19:00,785 --> 00:19:01,703
Masochist.

346
00:19:01,786 --> 00:19:03,329
Those are insults.

347
00:19:10,336 --> 00:19:11,546
Taiki.

348
00:19:11,629 --> 00:19:13,047
Why did you hit a cross shot there?

349
00:19:13,882 --> 00:19:15,925
The opponent was setting up a backhand.

350
00:19:16,009 --> 00:19:18,678
A straight shot would've had
more speed too.

351
00:19:18,761 --> 00:19:21,264
You should've gone for it,
even in an awkward position.

352
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,685
If you only settle for the easy shots,
you'll never improve.

353
00:19:25,768 --> 00:19:26,811
Right!

354
00:19:36,863 --> 00:19:39,574
I survived another day.

355
00:19:39,657 --> 00:19:40,783
Is this a battlefield?

356
00:19:42,076 --> 00:19:43,703
I need a drink.

357
00:19:43,786 --> 00:19:44,996
Of juice, right?

358
00:19:46,581 --> 00:19:47,582
Taiki!

359
00:19:48,917 --> 00:19:49,918
Good work today.

360
00:19:50,001 --> 00:19:51,169
You too!

361
00:19:52,128 --> 00:19:53,671
Those are second-year students.

362
00:19:53,755 --> 00:19:55,590
And Chinatsu Senpai.

363
00:20:04,933 --> 00:20:07,685
I actually got paired up
to play doubles with this guy.

364
00:20:08,853 --> 00:20:10,980
You're talking about me here?

365
00:20:11,064 --> 00:20:14,901
He's still a first-year
and absolutely garbage.

366
00:20:14,984 --> 00:20:17,195
He's still got so many holes in his game.

367
00:20:17,987 --> 00:20:21,950
He sucks at shot selection
and blunders when he rushes in to attack.

368
00:20:22,617 --> 00:20:24,786
I can't deny any of it because it's true.

369
00:20:24,869 --> 00:20:25,828
But...

370
00:20:26,371 --> 00:20:28,081
I think Taiki's going to be good.

371
00:20:30,166 --> 00:20:34,587
This kid doesn't fold at all,
no matter how much I bully him.

372
00:20:34,671 --> 00:20:39,342
Even when I subject him to stuff
that I think is a little too much,

373
00:20:39,425 --> 00:20:41,261
he actually finishes all of it.

374
00:20:41,344 --> 00:20:42,345
What?

375
00:20:42,428 --> 00:20:44,806
You're such a sadist.

376
00:20:44,889 --> 00:20:47,558
You're always tough
on people you believe in.

377
00:20:49,185 --> 00:20:51,062
- That's not true.
- I'm glad.

378
00:20:51,145 --> 00:20:53,439
At least he sees some potential in me.

379
00:20:53,523 --> 00:20:55,858
You ignore people you don't care about.

380
00:20:56,651 --> 00:20:58,653
You're doing great.

381
00:20:59,445 --> 00:21:02,865
Just the other day, you know
that first-year I'm looking after?

382
00:21:05,451 --> 00:21:09,706
It's nice being acknowledged
by the older students.

383
00:21:11,874 --> 00:21:14,502
I had a message from my girlfriend.

384
00:21:14,585 --> 00:21:16,129
Girlfriend, huh?

385
00:21:17,714 --> 00:21:20,174
You have a girlfriend?

386
00:21:20,842 --> 00:21:23,636
- Yeah, since last week.
- Last week?

387
00:21:25,263 --> 00:21:29,600
I liked her for a long time,
but she's in show business.

388
00:21:30,268 --> 00:21:34,022
I was just about to give up
when she asked me out.

389
00:21:35,773 --> 00:21:37,150
She's so cool.

390
00:21:37,817 --> 00:21:41,738
She's been working hard
chasing her dream since she was little.

391
00:21:43,323 --> 00:21:45,783
Chii, thanks for the other day.

392
00:21:45,867 --> 00:21:48,661
I would've felt awkward
going to buy makeup on my own.

393
00:21:48,745 --> 00:21:50,121
Don't mention it.

394
00:21:51,539 --> 00:21:54,917
He was just toying with me
this whole time!

395
00:21:56,294 --> 00:21:59,422
Looks like it'll be a while
before you get a girlfriend.

396
00:22:02,258 --> 00:22:04,635
Nobody asked you!

397
00:23:30,930 --> 00:23:35,935
