"Kreisler's "Joy of Love"." "[Fritz Kreisler (1875 - 1962) was a famous violinist and composer]" "I was weak in the Romantic School from the very start." "I haven't had a boyfriend in over 2 years who's said "Joy of Love" to me anyway." "Really? "Joy of Love" is a nice tune." "Ah, please don't sing anymore." "It just reminds me of my bow string snapping." "Now, together." "Ah!" "The bus comes!" "No!" "No!" "Wait!" " Shuji!" " Yes." "Ah, that was a great game, wasn't it?" "Just like I thought, the man who'd decide it would be Utsu-san." "Uhm." "It's been a long time since I've seen one." "Such a cool Buzzer Beat like that." "Ah, well of course Naoki-san looked pretty good there, too." "During the second half, your first assist was the best." "It's okay." "Say what you really think." "Well, what I really think is that last free shot that didn't go in should've been made." "You were really clumsy there." "Thanks." "Get yourself together, Naoki-san!" "I've admired Naoki-san's shoot, that's why I joined ARCS." "Well, nevertheless, since you became a pro, you only make mistakes at critical moments like that." "It's not that." "I just haven't gotten serious yet." "From now on I will." "Just you watch during the playoffs." " I'll work hard." " Okay." "I'd like to go to the playoff, too." "Don't worry." "Keep on working hard." "Ah, I just got an e-mail from Keiko." "Riko, what'll you do about Keiko's wedding?" "To be honest, isn't 30,000 yen a little tight?" "Ah, that's true." "But I've got that quartet for the year." "That's true." "Well, wanna go?" "You might be able to study during the wedding." "And maybe even meet someone." "Grandmother, here..." "Please sit here." " Ah, thank you." " Not at all." "Driver, can you wait a minute before moving again?" "It's okay now." "Thank you very much for your kindness." "You're welcome." "Take care." "By the way, those cheerleader outfits were cute, weren't it?" "Especially Natsuki-san's." "That's good, isn't it?" "You have a girlfriend like her with beautiful legs." "You shouldn't look someone's girlfriend with such your eyes." "But, more than legs, I have this navel fetish." "That's why the problem isn't about navels or legs." "She's a good woman." "She has a good heart." "Character." "That's why I'm serious about dating her." "Hang on a minute." " I forgot my cell phone." " Eh?" "!" "Naoki-san!" "I'll be waiting here!" " Ah." "Lend me your lipstick, too." " Sure." "When I took the train the other day..." "That high school girl sat down in front of me." "She asked the kid sitting next to her, "Loan me your tweezers."" "Eh?" "What's that?" "Normally when you'd say, "Here,"" "and pass them back over, you'd think she'd have taken out the hairs she'd pulled." " No way!" " It's true." "Moreover, she did it with a super deadpan face." "Eh?" "What's that?" "That's a little scary, isn't it?" "It was scary." "It feels like kids these day have been acting that way recently." "But, the other day, in Tower Records I happened to accidently go into a man's restroom by mistake..." "You went in one, huh?" "There was a guy there who was looking into the mirror and applying foundation." "No way!" "There are such guys?" "It's true." "I was shocked." "No!" "I wouldn't want that in a handsome guy I'd just met." "Right?" "Still, it looks like younger guys have been turning to that lately." "Somehow, I don't want guys pulling cheats like that on me." "I don't want that." "Definitely don't want that." "Yeah." "Not even a little, look." "I don't want them drawing eyebrows on their face and then saying, "This is who I am," kind of thing." "I don't want that." "I want someone much more wonderful." "And I want to be able to count, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 sets of stomach muscles all beautifully broken out." "Aha~" "But, I'm not really into stomach muscles." "What're you saying?" "Stomach muscles are a super important part." "Really?" "Ah." "Hey, someone's running after us." "He's pointing at something." "Ah, it's for that." "It is this." "This?" "This is it, this is it." "Ah, he disappeared." "Hey, hey, it's ringing." "Eh?" "Answer it." "It might be from that guy just now." " Eh?" "Answer it?" " Hurry." " Did he really say he'd come?" " Yeah." "I wonder if he's on a basketball team?" "Just a college student, isn't he?" "Well, got nothing to do with us..." "Yamada-senpai said it." "[Senpai means senior]" ""Young man in sports with muscles for brains just don't like girls like us who are into the arts." It's so true." "Still, he doesn't seem like a bad person." "He keeps something this cute in here." "What is that?" "Isn't it corny?" " I'm not sure, but it's kinda cute, isn't it?" " It's a Tsukkomi. [the straight man in a comedy team]" "Yes, hello?" "Yes, I've arrived." "Have you arrived?" "I've arrived." "Where are you?" "Ah." "A gorgeous young man." "A sports guy might be okay after all." "What's that about?" "Um, excuse me!" "Ah!" "I'm sorry." "Um, are you "Head Coach Kawasaki"?" "Eh?" "How did..." "Your name was listed on the incoming call display." " Is this it?" " That's it." "That's it, that's it." "Thank goodness." "This is a big help." "It's one of our players." "Player?" "Yes." "I'm going to meet him now and return it to him." "Really, thank you very much." "Is that right." "That's great." " Um..." " Ah..." "Ah, no." "Goodbye then." "So pretty!" "Um, would it be okay if I got your phone number?" "Yes." "Sure." "Whaa!" "The fireworks are incredible." "This is the first time I've seen them this year." " Utsu-san!" " To Utsu-san!" "To your Buzzer Beat, kanpai!" "Thank you!" "To ARCS!" "To we in ARCS... advancing to the playoffs!" "Kanpai!" "Kawasaki-san's late." "He called and said he'd be about 30 minutes late." "Ah, really?" " Um..." " Yeah?" "If..." "ARCS should win in the next playoffs..." "If we should win..." "Please marry me." "Yeah." "Please win." "All right!" "Ah!" "what'll I do now..." "Ah, I can't wait anymore." "Ah, wait, Naoki." " Naoki, oi!" " You rascal!" " What are you doing?" "!" "Yo!" "Everyone drinking?" " Naoki." " Yes." " Here." " Thank you." "Careful with it." "No, I want to thank you." "Eh, let's celebrate our advancing to the playoffs with a toast!" " Kanpai!" " Kanpai!" ""From that day, the tipoff of our ball of destiny had occurred."" ""Neither she nor I had the slightest idea that it had though.""

"We now come to the Apaches vs the JC ARCS in the second half." "Apaches have made serious progress as the game has progressed." "JC ARCS have been driven into a corner." "Now, Apaches are on the offensive again." "Apaches have met their chance." "They shoot." "An offensive rebound!" "And they made it!" "This time, JC ARCS are on the attack." "Utsunomiya shoots!" "Missed!" "JC ARCS just can't seem to get into the flow." "27 points!" "Just 3 minutes left!" "Hurry!" "What're you doing?" "!" "That sucks!" "Just 2 minutes left. 31 points behind." "It's probably impossible." "Go ARCS!" "ARCS!" "ARCS!" "Damn!" "A total defeat." "Just like that, we're eliminated from the playoffs." "You did great." "Thank you very much!" "Let's go!" "Starting today, you'll be off for a month." "Each of you will go into negotiations on the renewal of your contracts for annual salary and various other things." "Well, one month from now, there may be those of you who are left behind and there may be some new members." "But, I would like to come fight along with all of you in the next season." "When we gather here again, let's keep our eye on the championship and work our hardest." "Having said that, you are dismissed." "Thanks for the hard work!" "Let's go out drinking!" ""In that way... our 2008 season came to an end."" "Certificate of Commendation" "Winter Cup MVP Bunkyo University Kamiya Naoki" " Good morning!" " Morning." "Ah, I'm so happy!" "Just got up and breakfast is ready!" "If you don't hurry and eat, you'll be late." "Okaay." "I love oniichan's french toast!" "I love it, too!" "Yeah!" "Whenever Naoki's off, it's great, right?" "I've gotta get going." "Oh, this is rare." "Are you going to the company today?" "They've called me about my annual salary." " Take care!" " Have a nice day!" " Ah, pick up the laundry on your way back!" " Okay!" "It looks like oniichan's a bit depressed." "That's true." "Since he was so excited about winning the championship this year." "Okay." "And I was wondering whether I should wear a kimono or a chic dress to Naoki's wedding, too." "Mama, you got ahead of yourself." "Because Natsuki-chan is such a nice girl." "She has proper manners, a good head on her and she's cute." "I dislike her a little." "Because she's a little too perfect." "That's exactly why I like her for Naoki." "Ah, that's right." "I got an e-mail from that head coach last night." "So did I. From Kawasaki-san." "What the..." "He sent one to the both of us." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Do you have a minute?" "Sure." "Is it okay if we cut through here at Daizawa in 8-chome?" "I think you'd be better off going through these side streets." " Are we lost?" " We're lost." "Totally lost." "I'm starting to get that feeling." "Thank you very much." "I'm sorry." "We took the wrong roads." "Didn't we?" "Geez, get your act together." " Ah, it's okay, okay." "Let's go!" " Go!" " C'mon, the driver, too." "Go!" " Go!" "Chief Director Ashikaga, please." "Kamiya-kun." " This is about next year's annual salary, right?" " Yes." "After various reviews, how does this look to you?" "Eh?" "315?" "Well, you may think it's gone down a little this year, but the entire company is in a recession." "Even our bonuses have been reduced." "Right?" "What will you do?" "If you are dissatisfied with the amount, you have the right to go elsewhere and we can't stop you." "I'm sorry." "Please let me think about it for a little while." "What is this, 315?" "!" "Last year they gave me 450 (~$48,000)." "On that salary, I couldn't even eat." "Don't worry." "There's no need to hurry to get married." "I'll be always beside you." "So it's alright." "Okay?" "Yeah." "Thanks." "Yeah." "That's true." "Yeah." "If I put myself on the transfer player list, it may give me a chance for my merits to be more acknowledged by the team." "Uhm." "Today..." "Can we go out tonight?" "Tonight?" "Yeah, that's fine." "Then I'll make something." "I'll buy it." "But dinner might be impossible for me." "I have to work overtime." "I'm sorry." "Will you be okay again?" "We can't take our time and you'll get lonely." "You seem to be busy these days." "No." "I've been practicing cheering for the matches all this time, so I've only had a little work." "I see." "Anytime's okay." "I'll have time for awhile." "Thank you." "Then I'll send you an e-mail when work's over." "OK." "I'll get in touch with you, too." "Yeah." ""Someday, someday."" "Does he plan on being a kid forever?" "Geez." "What a great woman that Natsuki is." "I'm so pitiful." "What I want isn't your home cooking." " Mishima-san, good morning." " Yo." "I see." " You didn't renew you contract, huh?" " Yes." "I'll follow your example and get 1,000 yen (~$10) for every shot I make each day." "Eh?" "Well, up until now I've been doing about 300." "I'd like to do something different, and become stronger." "Since you and Natsuki-chan couldn't get married, huh?" "But, it would still be impossible this way, salary wise." "Naoki." "I'll... be retiring this year." "Eh?" "Yo." "Ah, Kawasaki-san." "What's the matter?" "Your bath at home is too small, so you only come here for bath, huh?" "Are you still putting things in it?" "I didn't think there was anyone left who'd come in." "Strawberry Bath." "Isn't it a bit sad for a fellow man to have to get in and share a pink bath like this?" "I'm sorry." " Kawasaki-san." " Huh?" "What happened to Mishima-san?" "Couldn't be helped." "If no one resigns, then we can't bring in new players." "It's regrettable, but that's how it goes for professionals." "We're like professionals, but we can't stand out the way they can in baseball or soccer." "You can't get married to a cute woman announcer." " Hey." " Yes?" "Hot, isn't it?" "It's hot." "You're relatively good looking, so with some energy, you could become a new star in the world of Japanese basketball." "Even if it has been 2 years since you entered as a professional, you're really weak when it comes right down to it." "Why is that?" "Well, I'm trying to figure that out, too." "Why I'm not that strong." "No." "I do have confidence in myself." "I was much better ever since I started in basketball." "In middle school, high school and college, I got all sorts of awards." "But now there are plenty of players in my range with long arms and a height of 2 meters like foreigners, as well as robust players." "I know that well." "I got conceited." "Isn't that okay?" "Being conceited is the privilege of youth." "No, but I'm not that young." "That's not true." "You're still 24, aren't you?" "I'm already 24." "It's not the age where I can blame those around me and act like a victim." "Truth is, I was planning on buying a house for my mother at 25." "And give my younger sister spending money and money for college and get married to Natsuki." "Ehh." "So you were thinking of marriage?" "Yes." "I want to get married early." "And buy my children matching sets of ARCS uniforms then carry them on my shoulders after a win and say "Papa won."" "You're amazing, Naoki." "But I'm totally useless at everything and, to be honest, impatient." "I'm so weak and useless like this." "I want to become stronger." "Well, truth is, a man isn't all that strong a thing." "He's not strong." "Even so, a man has to be strong." "Even during those times when he feels he isn't strong, in order to show his strength, he's not supposed to lose his pride." "That's why he can never show that face to his woman." "Yes." "If you can't decide where to transfer to, you can always come back anytime." "Thank you very much." ""Hello."" ""The season ended yesterday."" ""Whenever we have the chance to meet again, I'll be happy."" ""Kawasaki."" "Mai!" "Help me with this!" " It's too heavy for me alone." " Ah, sorry, sorry..." " I was immersed in it." " This isn't the time to be immersed." " One, two..." " Okay." "There." "Somehow, that Head Coach is so precise in his e-mails, isn't he?" "Kinda like an adult, huh?" "Cool, like an adult." "So great." " Have you answered yet?" " Not yet." "I don't know what to answer him with." "Ah, Mai, look at this." "Nakashishi-sensei's CDs." " How many do you have?" " Eh?" "All of them." "After all, aren't they wonderful?" "He's so mature, talented." "And all of the CDs he released have been sold out." "Really?" "That old man just felt like he was full of himself." "He's sexy." "Moreover, he's single." "Ah, I'd like to meet Nakanishi-sensei." "Riko and that man's tastes will never match up." "Whaa, Mai, what's with all these cosmetics?" " Do you use all of this?" " I do." "This is for the daytime." "This is for night." "This is for whitening when I'm tan." "And that's for special care on the weekends." "This is mine." "This is all." "What's with those simple skin care products?" "Don't you know?" "It's fine not using any skin care up until you're 20." "At 24 your skin makes its first turn of the corner and after that, the corners just keep on coming." "It keeps turning?" "On that day of your youth when the pimples end, next comes the UV rays that bring on the wrinkles." "In other words, a woman's live is a constant struggle against life." "That's why... we have to fight it with every weapon at our disposal." "Ah." "But, that's okay." "You can tell me all the details some other time." "Do, re, mi." "Mi, do." "That note is 'do,' isn't it?" "Do?" "I only hear the sound of cars." "No way." "Oh?" "Can't hear it anymore." "Hello." "This is Kamiya." "Ah... is that so?" "I got it." "Thank you for everything." "Hello." "Ah!" "So surprised!" "Mai-chan told me you were working part-time at this bookstore." "Is that so?" "Oh?" "Your voice sounds a bit hoarse today." "You could tell?" "I shout too much at the matches every day." "Really?" "You have to shout loud, don't you?" "Yeah, yeah." "Like "Run!" "So clumsy!"" "I see." "After a match, it always gets like this." "But you could tell right away." "I have keen ears." "Ah!" "I see." "Then being a violinist is best." "Ah, no, no." "You can't eat just playing an instrument." "That's why I have to work here." "Still, you look good in that apron." "Today what're you looking for?" "Ah, yeah." "Umm..." "Where's the sports corner?" "Sports is over there." " Ah, thank you." " You're welcome." "It's not that." "Truth is, I came to see you." "I have free time during the off-season." "So, if you like, can we go out somewhere?" "Mai-chan can come, too." "And I'll invite someone as well." "Well, I'll talk to Mai about it." "Uhm." " Then I'll contact you later." " Okay." "Hey, what're you doing?" "Don't laugh so loud." "This is bookstore, you know." "I know." "I've been working here for over a year." "From the moment I saw him, I knew he was aiming for you." "I felt his eyes were only looking at you." "Really?" "Kawasaki-san did?" "Should I tell him?" "That you throw your bra out on the floor before sleeping, and then you sleep." "No, no." "Wait, you better stop!" "That's was in celebration of house moving." "I was just happy and drank too much." "I'm not always like that." "Moreover, when you worked at that string shop, you met a music producer." "And you've admired him ever since, and haven't dated anyone for over 2 years." "No, no." "Please." "Forgive me." "I'm so sorry." "OK?" " Want me to forgive you?" " Really?" "That's enough." "Ebina-san." "Please come back to the counter." "Too bad." "Too bad." "Work." "Work." "Hello." "This is Kamiya." "Ah, I'm Saito from Griffins." "I'm sorry about this season's contract." "It seems a little impossible." "I got it." "Thank you for everything." "Good work today." "I'm at the park near my house right now." "The evening sun is super-beautiful so I've taken a photo and sent to you." "I wonder if you've been busy all this week?" "If sometimes we can meet leisurely, I'll be happy." "Your e-mail is too long." "Making a call is better." "Natsuki-senpai." "Is this article in the leaflet OK for "Clinic for Junior" this time?" "Here and here." "Kanji mistake." "[Kanji are Chinese characters in Japanese]" "I'm sorry." "Kanazawa-san, you generally don't know this, do you?" "You should increase the number of photos or illustration." "In that way, even children who don't know about basketball would be interested, right?" "Ahh, I see." "Nanami-kun." "Got a minute?" "Yes." "You know." "This man wants to join our team this time around, Yoyogi Ren-kun." "Nice to meet you." "Hello." "Nice to meet you." "If there's anything you don't understand, please feel free to ask me." "Because my general affairs department is in charge of the welfare program for contract players." "Well, what are your three sizes?" "That's a bad joke!" "Then, do you have a boyfriend?" "Yes, I do." "Don't worry." "Then you're dissatisfied with your desire, aren't you?" "Your face shows it." "Bye." "Softsubs by Heiwa Fansubs." "Special thanks to furransu for timings." "Please enjoy the drama!" "Offer of job related to music" "Oh?" "Shirakawa-kun?" "Nakanishi-sensei?" "You've gotten prettier, so I didn't recognize you for a moment." "No." "You must be joking!" "I haven't seen you for a while." "Because you didn't get in touch with me at all." "I couldn't find a chance to contact you." "I always wanted to contact you though." "I see." "What a waste!" "I'm only attracted by Shirakawa-kun." "Well, look at this." "I intend to gather young women to form a classical band and make a debut CD with them." "I'll be the producer." "Wanna join?" " Eh?" "Is there an audition?" " Yes." "Ah, I wanna register." "Please let me register!" "Certainly." "AKIRA NAKANISHI produce Venus Strings" "Isn't it my imagination?" " Oh, Shuji." " Oh!" "Oi?" "What're you guys doing?" "It's off-season now." "I haven't practiced in a week, so I had a bad feeling my body's softer." "Me, too." "Ah, Naoki-san." "Are going to transfer?" "I'm waiting for contact from Harts right now." "Naoki." "Don't say such things like that." "Let's practice together." "My annual salary's going down." "Eh?" "Moriguchi-san too?" "Same here." "Eh?" "Shuji?" "How much?" " 3,000,000. (~$32,000)" " What?" "So terrible." "Is that means the difference between mine and yours have changed to 150,000 only?" "How subtle!" "But both Matsui and Ichiro receive billions a year." "[Keijuro Matsui is a Japanese famous basketball player, and Ichiro Suzuki a Japanese famous baseball player]" "Despite being the same sports players, why do we have such a difference?" "There's even a 2-zero difference. 2 zeros." "Of course Matsui is different to you!" "Moreover, yours is a 3-zero difference." "That's right." "But you're not as bad off as me." "I have to support a wife and kids." "That means mine and yours have a 150,000 difference." "And you with those flabby muscles." "They're not flabby." "Hey, look at me!" "Don't you think it's quite good?" "Well, if you want to become a pro, you have to be like this." "Naoki." "Isn't your chest actually bigger than a woman's?" "Well, what should I do?" "If so, mine is enough to attract ordinary women." "Look!" "As I thought, muscle like this on me is ideal, isn't it?" "But, as a sports player, Utsu-san is perfect." "The female staff on the cheerleader team said so." "Me?" "Is it true they said things like that?" "Yes, they did." "Really?" " Show us yours!" " Eh?" " Take your shirt off!" "Kawasaki-san!" "Uhm." "Finished?" "You worked hard." "I want to talk to all of you a little while." "Put on your shirts!" " Okay." " Let's go." "Who's that?" "I think I've seen him somewhere before." "Let me introduce you." "This is Yoyogi-san." "He's come today to familiarize himself with the equipment." "Um, you played in the Intercollegiate championship, didn't you?" "Ah, I was the king of scoring in that championship for about a year." "Somehow I don't realize my aura has disappeared." "Um, there's no need to introduce myself." "Could someone play one-on-one with me?" "That way we can understand each other, right?" "One-on-one?" "One-on-one." "Who scores 5 points first is the winner." "Okay?" "Okay." "Sounds interesting." "May I?" "Sure." "Ready?" " Nice shoot, Naoki-san." " Yeah!" " Nice shoot!" " Good good!" "4 to 1." "One more point." "If he scores, Naoki will lose." "Game set." "Yoyogin wins." "You... are you okay with that?" "When you become a pro, basically you can't play on just confidence alone." "I'll think on this for a little while." "I've also gotten an offer from another team." "Please wait, Yoyogi-san!" "What the heck?" "What a terrible character!" "I feel sick somehow." "If he joins, he may bring some ready fire power to everyone." "That's right." "But, well, he seems to have problems in cooperation though." "Come in." "Ah, yes." "Shirakawa-kun, you like Mozart, don't you?" "Yes." "I especially like "Vienna classic collection"." "Mozart was a full-love man." "Are you the same as him?" "Ah, no." "I'm a person who only falls for one man seriously." "Perhaps you think of me all the time?" "Well..." "Do I misunderstand?" "Ah!" "No." "But now I want you to acknowledge my violin." "Violin isn't the issue; take it off please." "Eh?" "You can perform later, just them take off." "What?" "Okay, okay." "Let me help you." "No!" "Don't touch me!" "It's alright." "Stop joking!" "Sorry, I..." "But, why did you do that?" "Because I came today because I wanted you to listen to me playing the violin." "Violin?" "As I told you before," "I'm only attracted in you." "That attraction is your outward appearance." "It's your outward appearance." "I'm attracted to outward appearances only." "You don't have any ability, so your pride is just your very conceited face." "It can't be helped." "Fortunately, outward appearance is the most important to this quartet." "With a skill level like your, we can do everything with my technique." "That's why I recommended you to expose and appeal yourself." "C'mon." "Take off your clothes!" "Hurry!" "Don't want to?" "You'll regret!" "With only the ability to graduate from a second-rate college, it won't be enough to survive in the world of music." "Don't you really think so?" "Riko?" "How was the audition?" "I'll become a bookseller." "Huh?" "I'll work hard and become a regular employee." "Music... music is impossible for me." "What's with you, Riko?" "Although I admired him... he didn't even let me play." "What a shame!" "Don't cry." "Kawasaki-san is here." "He wants to meet you." "How can I?" "I can't meet him with my face like this." "And your make up is..." "That's true." "What a terrible face!" "Lemme take a photo." "Go to the locker room and re-apply it." "That book is interesting, isn't it?" "Kind of." "Ah, don't accuse me." "I came to buy some books properly." "How was the audition?" "Ah, it was no good." "I felt the music didn't suit me very well." "Hmm." "There's many worlds of art, right?" "Yeah." "Truth is I don't have any ability." "I know I'm not able to play." "I got conceited, even though I can't do anything." "Recently," "I said something just like this to another guy." "Eh?" "Isn't that okay?" "Being worried about the gap between the real self and the ideal self is the privilege of youth." "But well, as a senior in life," "I advise you not to suffer, but to keep going on and enjoy your life." "Those are for you and Mai-chan." "If you'd like, could the two of you come see it with me and my friends?" "Yes." "Thank you so much." " Mai." " Huh?" "I... can't be beaten like that, I'll keep practicing violin." "and facing forward." "I see." "You should do that, right?" "Ahh, I wonder who Kawasaki-san would take." "Uhm." "He's a good man, isn't he?" "Yeah." "Oh?" "Mai." "Isn't that your cell phone ringing?" "Eh?" "Mine?" "Nope." "It's that person's." "What we should have for dinner?" "What would you like?" "Uhm." "What's up?" "Natsuki." "I'm out right now for a drink with the Chief Director," "Utsu-san and everybody, along with Yoyogi-san." "It seems he wants Yoyogi-san to join our team at any cost." "Kawasaki-san also said he'd come right away." "Naoki, can you come too?" "Why do I have to come for that guy?" "Hello." "Hello?" "I don't wanna come today." "Maybe Harts has contacted me." "Ah." "I see." "Well, call me when you come home." "Okay." "But, wouldn't it be better if you came?" "Why's that?" "Because... it's possible you won't find any other place to transfer to, isn't there?" "It'd be good if you told the Chief 3,150,000 is fine and that you'll try your best for one more year." "What're you talking about?" "I'm sorry if I hurt your pride." "But I think it's best if you give your best to our team." "And that way, I also won't feel so lonely." "Anyway, I won't come today." "Incompetent." "Hey, how's Naoki?" "He seems to be busy." "I'm sorry." "This is Nanami-san, a cheerleader." "I'm home." "Welcome home." "Wanna eat something?" "No, I'm fine." ""I think it's best if you give your best to our team."" ""Don't worry." "I'll be always beside you."" "Naoki!" "Help me!" "What?" "Only English appeared." "Hmm." " It's alright." " What's this?" " Let me see." " Okay." "That sucks." "Okay." "If you press this button, it'll switch to English." " This?" " Yeah." " Are you sure?" " Yeah." "Okay!" "Naoki is always helpful." "Alright!" "Let's continue." "I'll make coffee." "Wanna drink?" "I don't need." " Hey mom." " Huh?" "Can I actually be helpful?" "Uhm." "Let me see." "Maybe you can't." "Didn't you just say that I can?" "I'm just joking." "After we divorced, and I had to support this family by myself, do you know how much I depended on you?" "Okay!" "I'll drink up this coffee and continue!" "Because everybody is our staff, right?" "That's so awesome!" "Ah, Kawasaki-san!" " Good work today." " You too." " Hello." " Welcome to our team." "What would you like to drink?" "Ah, beer." "Sorry." "I have to leave now." " Really?" " Yes." "Natsuki, you're going home now?" "Yes, I have to go out on business tomorrow." "I see." "Take care!" " Good work today." " Thanks for coming!" "Going out?" "You'll be attacked if you stay out here alone." "It could happen." "You're much more of a bad woman than everyone thinks, aren't you?" "If so, what would you do?" "If I were a bad woman, what'd you do?" "A man whom I don't really know like you has no right to complain about me." "Well." "That's why you and I might get along well." "Wait!" "What're you doing?" "Kamiya-san." "Hello!" "Where's Natsuki?" "She went home already." "Hello." "Hello." "What's wrong Naoki?" "Did you quarrel with Natsuki?" "Ah, kind of." "Chief Director." "I don't care about the annual salary any more." "Please let me play basketball for ARCS one more year." "Okay." " Can we make it in time for the contract?" " Ah yes." "Alright, Naoki!" "You can go on with us now!" "Thank you very much." "You'll be connected to answering machine service center." "Ah, I'm sorry." "I didn't notice." "No, it's okay." "Because I've always practiced at small places," "I wanted to try at a larger one this time." "Ah, I see." "Go ahead." "No." "I've finished." "Please." "That is a 'do' note." "Amazing!" "Too pretty!" "You play so well, don't you?" "Pretty form, pretty rhythm." "This is the first time I've thought a man was pretty." "I praised you too much." "Eh?" "Have I met you before?" "I don't think so." "Ah." "I see." "I'm sorry." "I'm so rude." "That's okay." "Sorry for disturbing you." "Um..." "Yes?" "Thank you very much." "I'm really happy." "You praised my basketball." "How can I put it..." "I'm very happy." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "I'm happy too." "Eh?" "Because of your applause." "Hey." "Are you a basketball player?" "Yeah, for the moment." "But I'm pretty bad." "My guaranteed fee is low, and I don't even have fans." "Really?" "I can't do anything smoothly." "I see." " That's ridiculous, isn't it?" " Uhm." "Well..." "There are so many problems, but try your best!" "I... will be your first fan." "Eh?" "What?" "My fan?" "I'm home." "Welcome home." "Riko." "You went out without make up?" "Yeah." "What's the matter?" "The air at night is bad for your skin." "Ah, moreover, I have talked with a man with no-make up on his face." "Ah, it's been a long time since I jogged with Kawasaki-san along this road." "I got on the scale this morning and my weight has increased by 2-digits." "I quit as an active player 2 years ago, so my body has to retire too." "I want to play with Kawasaki-san more." " Ah, Utsu." " Eh?" "Are you free next week?" "You gonna go on another date again?" "Well." "I'm already 32." "This time is serious." "I'll show you a goal this time." " Alright, Utsu!" "Let's dash!" " Yeah!" "Shut the curtain!"
