Original subtitles

I told you!

It's no use!

What's wrong? Exhausted so soon?

In that case, I'm disappointed.

Of course not. Bring it on!

No, you don't!

A fake?

I just have to jump again!

You're not making this shot!

We've been waiting for this to happen!

Seriously? Midorima passed?

He acted like he was doing it for himself, but he was shooting for his team.

Midorima has stopped fighting alone.

Shutoku is a true team.

They're more than formidable.

Well, we can start by benching Kuroko.

If your misdirection doesn't work, you'll only hold us back.

If we can't stop them, we just have to score more than them!

Let's go!

It's far smarter than trying a poor defense.

However...

Don't falter! Let's go!

Our team is more than just Midorima!

What?

-It sucks, but-- -They're good!

All right! Here we go!

Just kidding.

Don't miss.

I'm not done yet!

-Kagami! -Kagami!

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

You seem to be at your limit.

What did you say?

Seirin has no way to stop Shutoku.

Well, that's only true without Kuroko.

He won't be able to keep his mouth shut.

The phantom sixth man of the Generation of Miracles is the real deal.

EPISODE 31 I SURPASSED YOU LONG AGO

He's finally coming off the bench.

Please.

Change the flow of this game.

Kuroko, are you ready?

Yes.

Of course he is.

You're sure you can scare them, right?

Yes, of course.

They're putting him in now?

I thought his mis-whatever didn't work anymore.

They're not that desperate, are they?

If anything, it's the opposite.

He wouldn't be coming onto the court now without something up his sleeve.

He must have something.

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

As always, Takao's all over Kuroko.

But he can't stop him now.

He developed this technique to defeat the Generation of Miracles.

Show us what you can do.

Seirin's dropped their pace.

If they attack carelessly right after bringing in their trump card,

they'll completely lose control of the flow of the game.

They're calculating the best time to use their trump card.

It's coming!

A screen!

Switch! What?

They can't be serious.

He's taking on Midorima?

Kuroko!

-He caught it? -Impossible!

Kuroko can't use his misdirection while he has the ball.

This doesn't look good!

Watch out, Midorima!

Sorry, but it's not like that.

It's not about speed or skill.

Only Kuroko can pull off...

the Vanishing Drive!

What?

He made it!

That was amazing, Kuroko!

How did he get past Midorima so easily?

Kuroko...

Tetsu perfected his drive.

That bastard!

Keep your head, Kimura!

I'd given up on the rebound, but we're in luck!

Kuroko!

No, you don't!

I don't know what you did, but you won't get past me!

I don't believe it. He disappeared from right in front of me!

A three-pointer! We scored again!

SHUTOKU

Let's keep calm!

We're tied!

Amazing!

All right!

We jumped up eight points since Kuroko went in!

Seirin's tied!

We're back where we started.

Interesting.

SHUTOKU

He's pretty tired.

He's been on Midorima this whole time.

It's no wonder.

Kagami, are you okay?

I'm totally fine.

Besides...

I can't give up before him.

I didn't think that coach would put No. 11 in without a plan, but...

I wasn't expecting a drive.

It's unbelievable, but we have to accept it.

The situation is astounding.

They don't have the upper hand, though.

No. 10 is at his limit. Midorima can shoot all he wants.

No, I can't.

He's not that weak.

Okay, let's go!

We'll go hard in the remaining ten minutes!

Seirin, fight!

Yeah!

All right.

Nice. He's worked up, too.

We can't let him outdo us.

Honestly, I'm not sure what his trick is yet, but...

I'll stop you even if I have to cling to you.

I can't have you beating me so easily.

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

It's the final quarter.

Seirin's playing their run-and-gun style!

They're fast, but we know what's coming.

From No. 5 to 4 to 7, they'll cut in from the outside.

In that case...

Gotcha!

Oh, crap!

What?

Kagami!

Go!

Two of them?

Kagami, careful!

What?

All right!

He dunked through two of them!

The ball curved suddenly before it went in!

Seirin's magic passes are back!

They're not easily stopped!

Nice shot.

You're lucky it went in!

Am I stupid? I underestimated them!

Passing is Kuroko's specialty!

Izuki and Kiyoshi's fast passes have changed with the addition of Kuroko.

Their rhythm suddenly changes.

It's an ever-changing run-and-gun style.

This is the final form of Seirin's basketball.

Don't get ahead of yourselves.

Shit! I was a second late getting on my mark!

How many of these shots has he taken?

He should be running out of steam soon.

He said he increased his endurance, but by how much?

Amazing, Shin.

Are you okay? You must be approaching your limit.

Fool.

There's no way I wouldn't know exactly how many shots I can take.

I surpassed my limit long ago.

What are you talking about? What a man.

So, that's how it is.

Seirin! Seirin! Seirin! Seirin!

I thought that might be it.

But we're not here to lose!

Shutoku! Shutoku! Shutoku! Shutoku!

Neither are we!

Shutoku! Shutoku! Shutoku!

Seirin! Seirin! Seirin!

Listen to them cheer.

The players on the inside are having the most fun, though.

They're absolutely focused and experiencing a high, like...

I feel like playing basketball!

Amazing. No one's giving any ground.

Yeah. You don't see games like this often.

I wish it'd never end.

What?

I mean...

First-years, I can't hear you!

Yes, sir!

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

All right, Otsubo!

We're taking it back!

SHUTOKU

There's no time!

Get them!

What? This is terrible! It's going to be their ball!

Kuroko!

You're not going anywhere!

Then I'll force my way through!

-Yeah! -All right!

The Vanishing Drive!

Damn, damn, damn!

This passing course...

Their target is...

Nice pass, Kuroko!

-Kiyoshi! -Go!

No way, Iron Heart!

Crap!

Defense, pushing! Shutoku! No. 6!

Free throw, two shots!

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

Two seconds left.

The game comes down to two free throws.

Don't worry about it, Midorima.

It was actually a nice play.

If you hadn't done that, he would've made it for sure.

Damn it.

I meant to block without fouling him.

No wonder they call him the Iron Heart.

We're still hanging by a thread.

All we can do now is pray.

You idiot, that's not all we can do.

If he makes these shots, we have to accept it's over.

Even if he misses, if we don't get the rebound...

There's no way he isn't feeling the pressure now.

Before you start praying, give it your all!

We need to get that rebound!

Yeah!

Screen them out! Don't let them get the ball!

We're just being prepared.

We're not telling you to miss, of course.

Of course. Making both of these is the fastest way to win.

Let's have some fun.

That's what I'll do.

Two shots.

Miss, miss, miss!

Make it, make it, make it!

It went in!

SEIRIN - SHUTOKU

We're tied! We're tied now!

The fateful shot...

Rebound!

Yes, Otsubo!

-What? -Kagami!

PREVIEW

Look, pictures from a year ago.

I remember when Hyuga looked like this.

Don't laugh.

He said he'd take first with a bleached head.

-It didn't bother Teppei at all. -Teppei's taking the top. That's it!
