ShAOLIN SChOOL OF MARTIAL ARTS

Your 3000-day training ends today.

Thank you.

What will you do when you go home?

I'II become a cabin attendant.

I want to be an actress.

What about you, Rin?

I will spread Shaolin Kung Fu in Japan.

You must train yourself even after you Ieave Shaolin.

Yes, Teacher!

Thank you for everything.

She has mastered self-control,

but her dormant power is formidable.

People who cannot control their power are eventually destroyed by it.

We cannot do anything,

even if she succumbs to the Dark Side.

Is everything alright?.

Yes.

What a mess.

I am sorry.

THE DARK SIDE OF SIU

We won 15 to 5.

Wow!. Who was the hitter?.

Me, me!.

You... It"s been a long time!

What happened with the dojo?.

It closed a Iong time ago.

I'm just kidding

Everyone, look who's here!

Aren't you...

Rin! It"s been ages!

We've selected promising students, and assigned them

to the Iacrosse and beach volleyball teams.

In order to promote such disciplines, we plan to produce comics and novels.

We're working on sports entertainment and documentary film programs.

We've set up a dedicated Internet server,

and will soon Iaunch a blog.

This chart shows the expected investment results.

Enough about investments.

Is this marketable or not?.

There are two things worth investing in.

Power and beauty.

The days of investment in power are numbered.

This Ieaves beauty.

Sel I beauty.

The meeting's over.

The old Ms. Isezaki asked...

Oh, he's gone.

Why did the dojo close?

I don't really know. It was very sudden.

But I had a premonition, you know.

But if everyone else had no idea, it must've been a shock for them.

However I...

I've checked on the author of the article.

Remember me?. I'm Rin Sakurazawa.

Rin Sakurazawa!

Rin! Look at you!

And the other students?.

Haven 't seen them since the dojo closed.

Watch it!

We've grown up.

It must be hard for you.

Look what happened to Iwai.

Stay in touch.

Where do you want this?.

Over there.

Hello.

Ni Hao.

Fried rice please.

It's a busy day!

Better than playing soccer.

You're right.

Teacher!

Teacher!

Teacher?. What teacher?

Teacher! I know you're here.

You can't go in there.

Fried rice!

The soup's coming!

It's Rin! Welcome back!

Teacher!

Teacher, the dojo?

Did you go?. It's in ruins.

What happened?.

You must be starving!

Teacher!

I'm not your teacher anymore.

I gave up the Shaolin Kung Fu.

But...What about the dojo?.

It's a waste of time.

What're you saying?.

Rin, stay here for a while.

I'II cook you some good food.

My place is at the dojo.

Good bye.

Who was that?.

What a rude girl?

Didn"t even apologize.

Where's my fried rice?.

This?.

Got it!

Where is it?.

Who's there?.

Good morning.

You ate my breakfast.

It wasn't me.

Why?.

Don"t try to escape.

Where's Minmin?.

I don't know.

Yummy!

You do this every morning?.

Yes. Grandpa taught me.

He Iives in China?.

He"s a farmer. He raised me.

I want to graduate, find a good job,

and repay my Grandpa.

Hey.

Kick me.

Come on.

With all your might.

Are you OK?.

Your posture is good.

You can Iearn Shaolin Kung Fu.

Why Shaolin Kung Fu?.

I want to spread the art of Shaolin.

It was my Grandpa's dream.

OK... I can try.

Really?.

If you try Iacrosse.

AIright!

Yeah! Come!

Wait!

What's lacrosse?.

The future is veiled in darkness.

Reach ou t to it w ith out fear,

and you will see light.

D o not s top.

D o not hesitate.

Accept the challenge.

The possibili t ie s are infinite.

Set y our inner power free!

Get it all!

I am Yuichiro Ooba, President of Seikan International University.

I'm speaking to al I our present and future students.

Our university will support your...

This is your pass.

Where are we going?.

Let's go!

Wait!

Come!

Good morning.

Minmin, you're late.

Who's this?

This is Rin.

Rin Sakurazawa. I'm here to observe your practice.

Grade?.

An SIU student?.

Ever played Iacrosse?.

I will play Iacrosse.

So you'II Iearn Shaolin Kung Fu.

"Shaolin Kung Fu "?.

What is it?.

It's a martial art.

This is weird.

What's "a martial art"?

Like kendo?.

Or karate?

I've heard about Shaolin, but...

I think it's geeky.

It's not!

What do you wear?. I hate ugly uniforms.

Is it practiced outside?.

Even the UV creams don't help anymore.

I bought a good moisturizer.

Show us!

I miss the track team.

And I miss the basketball team.

We have no time for other sports.

Lacrosse is hard enough.

Forget it.

Why Shaolin Kung Fu all of a sudden?.

Are you at all interested in lacrosse?.

Showing up late, and all.

Bringing your weird friends.

You're a bit strange yourself.

"My name Minmin."

Can you play Iacrosse?

You use this?.

It's for throwing the ball.

This is no good. You must control the ball.

Shoot at the goal.

Oh, OK.

It's quite difficult.

I can't take this anymore.

Hey! Help! I need help!

Hey!

PIease, help me!

What am I to do?.

Task Force 7 needs more students adept in martial arts.

Select a few students. Request payment by wire.

And the other request?.

We've dispatched 3 students. Payment is complete.

That is all. Thank you.

The meeting's over. Send the car.

Any new transfers recently?.

Just a moment.

No, not a single one.

The police identified the body ofreporter Takeshi Kuro saki, age 35.

His investigative reports unveiled a series of universi ty scandals.

The cause of death is unknown, bu t foul play isn 't ruled out.

That was c Iose!

Did you h it these?.

I think so.

You broke the dolphin.

Who's that?.

From the Administration.

And who are you?. Haven 't seen you around.

This is Rin.

Department?

I'm not a student.

So you can't join the team.

Ryuji, let her apply.

If you can hit that strong, you should apply.

AIright!

I'm soaked!

Right down to the underwear.

This way. It's quite easy to apply.

What's that?.

A special training facility.

It's a restricted area.

Did I have spare clothes?.

I'm back.

Rin will play Iacrosse!

But she's not a student. It's impossible.

She applied for permission.

Can we order now?.

PIease.

Rin will be fine! She'II play Iacrosse.

Hello!

It"s not working because you're bending your elbow.

Rin, show us.

Let your force flow forward.

Teacher.

Manager.

Minmin.

Raw power won"t do it.

BIend the power of the ball

into your power, Iet them flow!

Wow! Saw that?.

Why are you here?.

It's quite an interesting sport.

Hey, Minmin.

Relax! With me, you don"t have to

practice martial arts.

Now I want to play!

Who's he?

Does it matter?.

How's my Iipstick?.

Perfect!

Let him apply for the coach post.

Right.

Girls, this is your new coach.

Iwai. Nice to meet you.

Welcome to the team!

Where do we start?.

It's training time!

Training time!

Bon appetit!

Where's Iwai?.

I don't know.

Me neither.

I see.

What's going on?.

You gave up Shaolin Kung Fu, and for what?.

To cook Chinese food.

I didn't

come back even when Grandpa died.

I trained hard.

Was it all in vain?

What's so great about Shaolin Kung Fu?.

What can you do?.

I don't...

You can break Iogs?.

You're strong.

It's just more violence.

Found it.

Good.

Who's there?.

Rin.

What are you doing?

You'II teach me Shaolin Kung Fu, right?.

But the Teacher said I shouldn't.

Teach me secretly.

Training for the Iower body builds strength and agility.

The arms extend from the shoulder blades.

The force generated there ejects your fist Iike a bullet.

A vertical axis extends through your body.

The basic principle is to be aware of it.

Feel the axis relax and with smooth, flowing movements

take a fighting stance. Then...

One more time.

Stand still.

Keep the axis straight and the body flowing.

This is the most difficult and important exercise.

Since when have you...

Since forever.

I have a question.

What?.

Why do you Iike wu shu?.

I've always Ioved it.

It's never been a burden.

Shaol in Kung Fu makes people happy.

But Shaolin Kung Fu is a fighting art.

You're wrong.

It's the art of protection.

It's difficult.

That's why I need to know.

My mission is to spread the art of Shaolin.

Here?.

Yes, here.

This is my home. Everything starts here.

Home?

Yes, a home. A place to return to.

"I'm home."

Yes, " I'm home."

Welcome home.

Two days ago we got a transfer request.

A graduate of the Shaolin School of Martial Arts.

Currently a member of the Iacrosse team.

The team requested permission to join the Ieague.

Apparently they have a new coach.

The beach volley team requests permission

for an overseas tour. Destination: Australia.

First kneel down.

Hold the stick at an angle of 45 to your body.

Then, with one smooth movement...

Don"t rely just on force.

FIow Iike water.

Rin, this is fun!

These are the basics of Shaolin Kung Fu.

Come for a sec.

What?.

What?.

Standing Zen!

Don"t do anything.

AIright!

The arms extend from the shoulder blades.

The force ejects the ball like a bullet.

The lower body is also important.

Its muscles control the speed.

This is Kung Fu.

AIright, Minmin. Give it a try.

OK.

Wow.

The new coach changed the team.

We've really gotten better.

Everyone will get a turn.

AIright.

Get in Iine.

Good, good!

Very well!

Stop complaining.

We must train hard to win the practice match.

Right?.

One Iast round!

OK.

Who's that?.

The University President.

Let's go.

Look at them! Nice.

A good match! Good job, chief!

I'm no chief.

I'm no chief.

I said, I'm no...

So cute.

Yeah.

Do I have to wear this?.

I can't play in it.

It Iooks good on you.

You Iook cute.

What about me?

You Iook pretty.

The high socks are nice.

My legs look fat in these.

Nah, you"re so slim.

Enough already.

Gather up!

Stay focused!

Rin, you stay here!

Why?.

You'II drag them down.

How do you know that?.

Her shooting"s awesome!

We'II Iose.

I said no!

AIright, huddle!

Huh?. Rin is benched.

They Iook good.

Cute uniforms. Good job, chief!

I'm no chief.

The practice match between

SIU and Ouka College begins!

Thank you.

Minmin!

Go! Formation D.

Guard the goal!

Goalie!

Ouch!

Nice! One more!

It isn't over.

Cheer up!

Ayasa!

Mami!

Mami, fight!

Watch out!

Mami!

Shoot!

They're surprisingly good.

They move well.

Nice move, chief!

I told you I ain 't no chief!

Halftime.

Thank you.

Asami!

Are you OK?.

Everything oK?.

Let me play.

You'II ruin the good team.

Nonsense. I can play.

Captain, I'm going in!

AIright!

Let's do our best! We can win.

Rin is going in.

Nice, nice!

Rin is good! Good job, chief.

You're doing it on purpose.

Rin!

What's that?.

Kana!

Ouch!

Rin! Pass!

Why?.

I got it.

What?.

Wait!

Aina, are you OK?.

Are you OK?.

Rin!

Rin! Pass!

There's no teamwork.

Good, good!

Good job, chief!

Rin!

Rin, over here!

OK!

Well done!

Are you OK?.

These things happen.

We'II work harder next time.

Cheer up! It's just a practice match.

We'II get better in time for the tournament!

You still don't get it, do you?

Your passes were too fast.

You totally ignored us.

It's not your game.

We all worked so hard!

We aren"t like you.

The truth is we suck.

That's not the point.

Rin, you don't trust us.

You don't pass the ball.

I got hurt because of you.

Are you alright?

Hurting your own teammates!

It hurts!

Are you OK?.

There was no teamwork.

I never meant to...

You drag them down.

You can't play in a team.

There's no team play in Kung Fu.

But you're teaching them Kung Fu.

No! I"m teaching them the spirit of Kung Fu.

You know only the form.

This can't be true.

Mr. Iwai is...right.

I don't understand teamwork.

But...

PIease forgive me.

Let's go!

Yes!

Be careful.

SIowly, slowly.

Minmin, watch it!

Ayasa, pass!

Mami, get it!

Nana, pass, pass!

Mayu, pass!

What is Kung Fu all about?

Pass! Pass!

Come here.

Why did you go alone? Why didn't you pass?

But I...

Don't "but" me!

PIaying the game is a team responsibility.

Responsibility?.

Yes, responsibility. Do you know what responsibility?

That's right! To win the game.

Is that teamwork?

This is how you communicate with your teammates.

Who are you?

Rin?.

Come play with us.

AIright! It's practice time.

Let's do it!

What about that patisserie?

With the apple pie?.

Rin...

Why is she playing soccer?.

Because she can't play lacrosse.

Good! And shoot!

Wow, great! But don't forget the teamwork!

It's OK!

Teamwork!

The team's work! Teamwork!

Come on, run!

Good, good! Pass now!

Shoot!

That's right!

PIaying the ball is a team responsibility.

The responsibility to win!

This is how you communicate with your teammates.

Rin! Go for it!

Girls, wait!

Rin!

What are you doing?

It's practice time.

se all your muscles.

Every single one of them!

Cute!

Listen, Iisten! I'll pass!

Coach!

PIease, Iet Rin practice with the team.

PIease!

PIease, Coach!
