00:00Oh
00:19Miles away more like it
00:26Three blockers on the left again
00:30Yeah
00:41Got it
00:52Step back when receiving
01:01I
01:02Could shut the PTA up by winning for once
01:06It's sodas fault for not showing up. I didn't do anything wrong
01:10Not a damn thing
01:14We're right in the middle of a match here a
01:18Hospital, are you sure it's Yoshino Sota?
01:21They found him at home. He tried to
01:30I
02:00Got your one a day
02:30See me
03:00♪♪
03:08-♪♪
03:13Chika! Wait up!
03:16Yumi.
03:19So you're moving to Tokyo?
03:21We're not gonna see each other anymore.
03:24Yeah.
03:25But I promise, no matter what,
03:28I'll never forget you, Yumi!
03:30I promise, too. Don't worry.
03:32I won't forget you, either.
03:34I wish we could have stayed together forever.
03:39Goodbye, Yumi.
03:50Guess what I heard.
03:52The transfer student's gonna be late.
03:54I wonder if he's hot.
03:56Please tell me he's hot.
03:58Rest assured, he's average.
04:00Maybe even below so.
04:01Stop me if I'm wrong, but the last time you saw him
04:03was back in kindergarten, right?
04:05There's no telling what he's gonna look like now.
04:07Fine, then here's my best guess.
04:09I'm sure he's still a four-eyed shrimp who sucks at sports.
04:12What's with you? Always pouting like a kid.
04:14Is little baby Kuraba grumpy?
04:16Give it a rest!
04:18What are you, my older sister?
04:20Go annoy your own class.
04:21Yeah, yeah. I was leaving anyway.
04:25I'm wearing shorts underneath,
04:27so there's no point trying to sneak pee.
04:29They're not even cute ones.
04:31What are those made of, wool?
04:32The school's heated. Why even wear them?
04:35Because, dork, they're stylish.
04:37No point trying to explain the concept to you.
04:40You know what never gets old?
04:41All the different ways your cousin gives you crap.
04:43Do me a favor and shut your mouth.
04:45This transfer student,
04:47they're like a childhood friend of yours.
04:48Back from kindergarten.
04:50That long? Reunited at last, huh?
04:52Seriously? Please, he's just a dude.
04:56To be honest, I was pretty excited.
05:01What's Chika's problem?
05:03The guy finished moving back during the winter break.
05:05He didn't even stop by to see me once.
05:24Chika!
05:27Chika!
05:37Huh?
05:39Maybe he didn't recognize me?
05:45This is Hajime Kimichika from Tokyo.
05:48I understand his grandfather lives here,
05:50and he resided in Suzumu until he was in kindergarten
05:52and had to move away.
05:54I'll ignore you.
05:56Kuraba.
05:57What?
05:58Apparently, Hajime played volleyball at his previous school
06:00and has decided to join our team.
06:02Since he's a brand new student here,
06:04I trust you'll make sure to show him around our school, won't you?
06:07Speaking of which,
06:08why don't you take a seat in front of Kuraba?
06:15What position?
06:17Yeah, well, you do play volleyball.
06:19You're talking about my position on the team?
06:22Truth is, I don't really have, like, a designated spot or anything.
06:26I'm not sure I understand.
06:27You have a system to decide during matches?
06:29You're gonna laugh,
06:30but I've never played an actual match before,
06:32and our practices are kind of whenever.
06:34Full disclosure,
06:35most of the guys on the team just needed some sort of club to join.
06:38Oh, right, joining a club.
06:40It's sort of required by the school,
06:42but I guess you wouldn't have known that.
06:44Hey, did your last school have some kind of
06:46super outstanding volleyball team or something?
06:50You're a waste of centimeters.
06:52What? A waste?
06:54What's going on with him?
06:58Chika...
06:59Wait, Jimmy Chika?
07:01Yeah, I remember that kid.
07:03Good to know,
07:04because if you do, he must be real,
07:06not some figment of my imagination.
07:09You didn't seriously think he was a ghost?
07:11I swear, you're as stupid as ever.
07:13If you're so smart,
07:14then tell me the reason he moved to Tokyo.
07:17Or do you actually know?
07:18Because of his mom dying and all,
07:20I can still remember the geezer
07:22all dressed up on the day of her funeral.
07:25As for his pops,
07:26he was originally from Tokyo.
07:29Kinda makes me wonder
07:30why he ended up coming back to this place.
07:35Man, like I know.
07:37Ask him yourself.
07:38If I could, do you think I'd be in this mess?
07:41He's got this barrier around right now.
07:45Hey, um,
07:46I'm not a waste of centimeters, am I?
07:49I'm the wrong person to ask.
07:51As a fellow pointlessly tall person,
07:53I can't be objective.
07:54Still, you ain't got nothing on my height.
07:57Yeah?
07:58No need to go and brag.
07:59Here.
08:00Are you there, Uni?
08:01Auntie says it's time for dinner.
08:03Get your butt home.
08:06Hold on a sec.
08:07How did Itoko know I was with you?
08:10Seriously, you're such an idiot.
08:12Why's that?
08:16Hello, Kuroba.
08:17Hey, Chika.
08:18I mean, Hajime.
08:20Why are you out so late?
08:21I had club.
08:23As in, like, volleyball?
08:26Practice was today.
08:27Sure, but no one else was there.
08:29No.
08:31You practiced by yourself?
08:33That's right.
08:34Hey, this is Chika, huh?
08:37You were a runt last time I saw you.
08:39Dude's almost as tall as you, Uni.
08:42This is Yori.
08:43You've met before.
08:45He's my cousin who used to play shogi at Gramps' place.
08:47I remember him.
08:49So what?
08:54Just so you know, you're wasting your height and your life.
08:59What's that supposed to mean?
09:01You think you're going around doing something amazing with yours, huh?
09:04Compared to you two, yeah.
09:08What's his problem?
09:10Height's not the only thing that's changed about him.
09:12He acts the same way at school.
09:14Guy's a loner.
09:19Come on! Let's go!
09:45That's a heck of a spike serve.
09:47So awesome.
09:49Hey, transfer student.
09:51By yourself again, I see.
09:53Don't know if you've noticed or not,
09:55but we're kind of short on space because of you.
09:57Seeing how you don't have a team,
09:59how about practicing in a corner?
10:01We need to use the whole gym.
10:03Yeah, I know, right?
10:05I mean, it's not like we're going to be able to practice in a corner.
10:07Yeah, I know, right?
10:09I mean, it's not like we're going to be able to practice in a corner.
10:11I mean, it's not like we're going to be able to practice in a corner.
10:13We need to use the whole gym.
10:15Anything less, we're missing out.
10:17And my sport requires half the gym.
10:19There are more of you, so what?
10:21If you don't have enough room to practice,
10:23then take it up with your advisor.
10:25You just got here, and you act like you run the school.
10:27Yo!
10:29Now there are two of us.
10:31So stop complaining.
10:33Um, sorry for being late.
10:35And stuff.
10:37What's your deal?
10:39Just sizing you up.
10:41After you had the nerve to tell me
10:43I was wasting my life yesterday,
10:45I figured why not stop by the gym
10:47and see what you were doing with yours.
10:49And in case you were wondering,
10:51I didn't come here to help you out, okay?
10:53It's not like you needed it.
10:55Still, one up against 20 isn't an even match.
10:57Not sure two against 20
10:59will make that much of a difference in the long run, either.
11:01Do you have any idea of how annoying you are?
11:03For real, though,
11:05is it any wonder you don't have a single friend at school?
11:11By the way,
11:13those spike serves earlier were looking pretty awesome.
11:15I need to get better,
11:17or I can't use them in matches.
11:19Aha!
11:21So that's why you were here working on your serves.
11:23No, that's all I can do
11:25while practicing alone.
11:29I don't have my tracksuit.
11:31But I suppose I could do some drills.
11:33Besides, it's not like I made plans with Yori today.
11:35Fair warning to you, though.
11:37I'm still pretty sucky,
11:39so I might not be much help.
11:41You feel you're better off on your own,
11:43I'll go, cool?
11:47What's with that look, dude?
11:49Hang on. I'll put in my contacts.
11:51Why?
11:53I was holding back, but you showed up.
11:55Also, that warm-up routine of yours
11:57is absolute trash.
11:59We're gonna start with some proper stretches.
12:01Stay there.
12:09In math,
12:11you got a 95?
12:13And a 99 in social studies?
12:15But what's this?
12:17A 30 in Japanese?
12:19Would you shut up?
12:21How long are you gonna keep going on about my grades?
12:23Trying to kill me?
12:25Like you're one to talk.
12:2742 in math, social studies a D.
12:29Wanna compare test scores? Fine.
12:31What about in Japanese, then?
12:33Which one of us made an 87?
12:35Ow! Take it easy!
12:37This sucks.
12:39You and I have pretty different ideas of warming up.
12:41Kuraba,
12:43how tall are you right now?
12:45173 centimeters.
12:47When did you last check that?
12:49Sometime back in the fall, I guess.
12:57You're 175.
12:59Hey, tacked on 2 centimeters.
13:01Now measure me.
13:03172.7.
13:07You're not that much taller.
13:092 centimeters.
13:112.3, actually.
13:13Still, you're a setter, right?
13:15Not like you have to worry that much about height.
13:17Let me tell you about a tall setter.
13:19A player on the national team
13:21named Abe.
13:23He's a setter, 191.
13:25The taller you are, the higher all your sets will be.
13:27That's why Abe's a master
13:29at the front of the net.
13:31You're ambidextrous with sweet left-hand dumps.
13:33Oh, yeah. So I noticed earlier.
13:35You were using both hands, too.
13:37You're ambidextrous?
13:39No, but I train myself.
13:41How would you even start?
13:43That blows my mind.
13:45Ryo? What's up?
13:47Not much.
13:49Yeah, so, uh, I heard the volleyball club
13:51was meeting up here for practice today.
13:53It's only us, but...
13:55Yeah, that's right. Now that you're here,
13:57we can get a serious practice in.
14:01♪
14:31♪
14:53Hey, Kuraba.
14:55During practice games,
14:57look at the block before choosing
14:59a cross or a straight.
15:01Let me see if I can remember this.
15:03So a straight attack is when you hit the ball
15:05right through the court, while a cross
15:07is one that's more on the outside.
15:09Other way, genius.
15:11A spike you hit diagonally through the court is a cross,
15:13while a hit that's parallel to the sideline
15:15is called a straight.
15:17Whenever you're up front by the net,
15:19you've got a habit of taking a step
15:21while facing towards the middle.
15:23If you just hit it naturally, that'd be a cross.
15:25But if you wanted to aim for the outside,
15:27that's a strike. Okay?
15:29That's real confusing.
15:31It's beginner-level stuff, but whatever.
15:33We'll do drills so you don't forget.
15:35Afraid you'd say that.
15:37Mentally, you don't get it,
15:39but you know how to get around blocks.
15:41The way you use your upper body,
15:43the flexibility of your shoulders,
15:45how you stay in the air.
15:47Don't worry, though.
15:49While those are the only natural talents
15:51you have for the sport,
15:53in time, you'll get better.
15:55Getting taller wouldn't hurt, either.
15:57Thanks for the first part, at least.
15:59What's your deal? Was something I said incorrect?
16:01You're always acting like you're better
16:03than everybody else,
16:05so hearing you offering me a legitimate compliment
16:07is a little disconcerting. No offense intended.
16:09Of course I'm going to acknowledge
16:11something that deserves to be acknowledged.
16:13Even if I ended up being great
16:15at volleyball,
16:17I'd still be unpopular.
16:21So, what's the verdict on high school?
16:23Are you going to go here?
16:25For now. That's the plan, but...
16:27There's more?
16:29It's not like you have to stay, right?
16:31More importantly,
16:33we've got first-year students joining in April.
16:35Yeah, you're right, but
16:37you shouldn't get your hopes up too much.
16:39We can probably snag one or two.
16:41If we get more, I want to compete.
16:43I don't know whether the schedule here
16:45is like most other places,
16:47but before the Nationals,
16:49there should be a prefectural tournament.
16:51Not to be a downer, but even if we entered,
16:53I doubt we'd make it that far.
16:55Volleyball's not fun if you're not competing.
16:57That's the entire purpose.
16:59I'll make sure
17:01we're presentable by summer.
17:03Keep showing up to practice.
17:05I'll figure out the rest.
17:07Well, good luck.
17:09But don't we have to have an advisor before we enter a tournament?
17:11Why don't we ask around at school tomorrow?
17:13Sup? Well, if it isn't
17:15Mr. Moneybags himself.
17:17Heya, it's been a while.
17:19What's up, Yori?
17:21What's going on? Why are you guys back in town?
17:23Out of college for spring break, man.
17:25Rich boy,
17:27lend us some cash, would ya?
17:29Eh, I've only got some pocket change.
17:31I don't carry much since I leave my bag
17:33lying around while I'm in club.
17:35You're in a club?
17:37Yeah, so we heard. Yorimichi mentioned something about that.
17:39Volleyball, I think he told us.
17:41Well, come on, let's see some moves.
17:43How about showing us a receive, bro?
17:45You know, I always forget what those look like.
17:47Refresh my memory.
17:49I think it's sort of like this.
17:51We got ourselves a natural here.
17:53Looking real cool.
17:55Like you're a legit volleyball player.
17:57Hajime, stop playing games
17:59and let's go. Waste of time.
18:01Could you stop pulling me first?
18:03It's only a game.
18:05Don't forget.
18:07Don't tell me you're actually
18:09serious about joining this stupid jock?
18:11Come on.
18:13You're not mad at me, are you, Yori?
18:15I'm sorry we haven't gotten a chance
18:17to hang out recently, but we should
18:19totally meet up during the break.
18:21We practice during spring break.
18:23We're not talking about every day though, right?
18:25If we're going to enter the summer tournament,
18:27I doubt even that'll be enough time.
18:29Are you for real?
18:31Yori.
18:33You realize, don't you, that you're never
18:35gonna make it? Treat it like a game
18:37and you won't make a fool of yourself.
18:39So what's it gonna be?
18:41Him or us?
18:43I ain't the type to wait around for long.
18:45Hey now, we're only kidding here, right?
18:47You're just as bad as he is.
18:49Man, money sure makes you popular.
18:51You turn around for a minute
18:53and he replaces you. Some friend, huh?
18:55Come on.
18:57We're cousins.
18:59You know how I always dive into new things all excited
19:01and then get bored with them just as quickly?
19:03And sooner or later,
19:05I'll wind up getting tired of volleyball.
19:07Yeah.
19:09Were you serious just now?
19:11Well, I...
19:13The thing is...
19:15Then go ahead and quit.
19:17Why are you taking this from zero to a hundred?
19:19I'm not letting you ruin the tournament.
19:21And what does that mean?
19:23You'd only get in my way.
19:25I want to actually play in matches.
19:29Bingo.
19:31Showing your true colors at last.
19:33The genius setter from Meisei
19:35living up to his reputation.
19:37Always putting himself before anyone else,
19:39I'm confused.
19:41What are you talking about, Yori?
19:43The reason Chika came back to town.
19:45You said you wanted to know,
19:47didn't you?
19:49So I did some digging.
19:51You hear me?
19:53Everyone reaps what they sow, you little punk.
19:55So don't go blaming your problems
19:57on uni.
19:59Yori, wait!
20:01I managed to get your old school name
20:03from your gramps.
20:05Thought you could keep it a secret from everyone, huh?
20:07I did a little snooping online
20:09to see what I could find out.
20:11And did I hit the jackpot.
20:13Page after page about the volleyball
20:15prodigy who went to school there
20:17up until last year.
20:19Boy, do they hate you now.
20:23Uni.
20:25I don't want you to think this is just
20:27some personal vendetta against Chika.
20:29Although he deserved that.
20:31We're doing this for you.
20:33I'm warning you.
20:35Don't get involved with volleyball.
20:37But why not?
20:39Because this loser here will do whatever it takes
20:41to win.
20:43And I mean anything.
20:45Play the game right!
20:47You're on the left, so receive the ball!
20:49Then you make sure to get it to me,
20:51the center!
20:53How many times do I need to tell you?
20:55If you can't even do that right,
20:57then what are you good for?
20:59You won't be in the starting lineup
21:01for tomorrow's game.
21:03You'll have to fuse things with Yoshino
21:05and the rest of the team.
21:07As well as the parents.
21:09The hospital?
21:11Are you sure it's Yoshino Sota?
21:13They found him at home?
21:15He tried to...
21:17Want to know the dirty truth?
21:19This jackass here...
21:21He pushed another teammate over the edge
21:23for not listening to him.
21:25The kid tried to off himself.
21:33I don't want to end it like this.
21:39But I'm going to live
21:41while feeling it.
21:47That's how I'm going to
21:49return the favor.
