00:03.030 --> 00:05.760
Stop grinning at me like 
that while eating.

00:06.410 --> 00:09.240
I can't help it. It's good.

00:11.050 --> 00:12.100
Syugo?

00:12.770 --> 00:14.260
Nothing.

00:14.630 --> 00:17.640
You always make a scary face, Syugo.

00:18.070 --> 00:21.520
I was so shocked 
when you jumped at Kizuki.

00:21.520 --> 00:24.680
I haven't seen you make 
a face like that before.

00:26.150 --> 00:29.620
As a chef, what will you do 
if you hurt your hand?

00:29.620 --> 00:31.450
Are you out of your mind?

00:31.450 --> 00:33.410
You and Kizuki!

00:33.410 --> 00:35.320
Throwing hands at each other like that—

00:36.450 --> 00:40.530
No more talking about Kizuki.

00:44.180 --> 00:46.670
Syugo?

00:46.670 --> 00:48.010
Right now...

00:48.010 --> 00:49.670
The person in front of you...

00:52.280 --> 00:53.430
is me.

01:01.690 --> 01:03.940
Out of anyone else, 
the one by your side...

01:07.660 --> 01:08.790
is me.

02:45.040 --> 02:50.040
2030

03:04.020 --> 03:07.410
My apartment's small, 
but make yourself at home.

03:07.810 --> 03:09.070
Thanks.

03:18.040 --> 03:22.420
What the heck were you and Syugo 
doing in front of Mizuho?

03:32.170 --> 03:36.970
Actually, I wanted to be 
the one to lay it on you.

03:38.030 --> 03:41.220
You abandoned Mizuho for three years.

03:43.500 --> 03:44.720
I'm sorry.

03:44.720 --> 03:45.990
Idiot.

03:45.990 --> 03:49.350
The one you need 
to apologize to is Mizuho.

03:53.720 --> 03:55.200
Can I ask you something?

03:56.740 --> 03:58.810
Why'd you break up with Mizuho?

04:08.620 --> 04:11.830
I ran away.

04:14.630 --> 04:17.130
2021

04:18.560 --> 04:20.380
Forget him.

04:20.380 --> 04:22.570
Let's forget about Kizuki.

04:22.570 --> 04:25.220
I bet everyone else thinks so too, right?

04:25.220 --> 04:27.600
That's enough, Kai.

04:27.600 --> 04:30.980
Yeah. Kizuki's our friend.

04:31.790 --> 04:35.340
I hate that part about adults.

04:35.980 --> 04:38.720
Kai-kun. Everyone...

04:38.720 --> 04:40.210
I'm so sorry.

It's over!

04:43.870 --> 04:45.460
You idiot!

04:45.990 --> 04:48.250
We were so close to finishing that!

04:48.250 --> 04:50.430
You're useless! You held me back!

04:50.430 --> 04:52.620
You're no friend, Kizuki!

04:54.380 --> 04:58.850
When are we <i>ever</i> going to 
defeat the dragon at this rate?!

04:58.850 --> 05:00.260
You guys...

05:00.260 --> 05:02.030
How long are you going to play games?

05:02.030 --> 05:04.300
What about making plans for Kizuki's birthday?

05:04.300 --> 05:06.060
Why is Kizuki even here?!

05:07.540 --> 05:09.060
What a mess!

05:09.060 --> 05:10.910
Now, now.

05:10.910 --> 05:12.810
You play the game 
for us instead, Shin-chan.

05:12.810 --> 05:15.060
I'll come back after I take a bath.

05:15.510 --> 05:17.100
I'm going to bed!

05:19.230 --> 05:21.720
Kai's angry.

05:22.100 --> 05:23.700
Hey, Mizuho.

05:23.700 --> 05:26.740
How should I have used this item?

05:28.890 --> 05:31.510
I'm cramping from laughing so much.

05:31.510 --> 05:34.080
Your timing was completely off.

05:32.720 --> 05:34.080
Mizuho.

05:34.080 --> 05:35.980
Let me see. For that item...

05:34.460 --> 05:35.980
You need to go home.

05:36.400 --> 05:37.400
What?

05:37.940 --> 05:39.480
It's almost midnight.

05:39.480 --> 05:41.850
But I told my dad.

05:41.850 --> 05:43.870
You shouldn't be in the room of a guy

05:43.870 --> 05:45.840
who isn't your boyfriend 
this late at night.

05:47.170 --> 05:49.100
Y-You're right.

05:49.720 --> 05:51.560
I'll head home soon, then.

05:51.560 --> 05:53.600
Kizuki. Go drop her off.

05:53.600 --> 05:55.130
Oh. Okay.

05:55.130 --> 05:56.860
Thanks for having me over.

05:59.260 --> 06:01.400
As expected of an honor student.

06:01.400 --> 06:04.130
No "I'll take you home" 
or anything like that?

06:04.130 --> 06:07.060
What are you thinking, Shin-chan?

06:07.060 --> 06:08.870
What? It's common sense.

06:09.970 --> 06:13.310
Leaving those two alone 
on a day like this...

06:13.870 --> 06:16.420
You don't need to pretend 
that you're fine.

06:36.010 --> 06:37.640
Wh-What?!

06:37.640 --> 06:39.450
You surprised me!

06:39.450 --> 06:42.160
Since it's going to be 
tomorrow in ten minutes...

06:42.160 --> 06:46.390
I wanted to give you one last kiss 
while I'm still 16.

06:55.530 --> 06:56.500
Kizuki.

06:56.500 --> 06:59.510
Is there anything you want 
for your birthday?

07:00.730 --> 07:02.670
Nothing, really.

07:02.670 --> 07:04.670
But there's something I want to know.

07:06.130 --> 07:09.420
What about me made you like me, Mizuho?

07:10.050 --> 07:12.090
Um, well...

07:12.680 --> 07:14.580
This is so sudden.

07:16.100 --> 07:16.940
Hm?

07:16.940 --> 07:19.350
Huh? Wha—?

07:21.630 --> 07:23.700
Then let's take the scenic route.

07:24.190 --> 07:26.920
We're not going home until you tell me!

07:32.200 --> 07:35.880
I have a ton of things I like 
about you, Mizuho.

07:35.880 --> 07:36.920
What?

07:38.210 --> 07:41.090
The way you chase your 
dreams of writing manga.

07:41.590 --> 07:44.090
How you cheer me on when I'm swimming.

07:44.870 --> 07:48.670
How your hair is a mess because 
you're too tired in the mornings.

07:49.280 --> 07:50.470
Hm?

07:50.470 --> 07:52.550
Aren't you dissing me in the last one?

08:00.360 --> 08:01.790
What I...

08:03.370 --> 08:05.330
Like about you...

08:05.330 --> 08:08.110
Why it had to be you...

08:08.110 --> 08:10.670
I can't think of a word 
that perfectly describes that.

08:13.120 --> 08:14.200
But...

08:15.320 --> 08:16.550
"Hope."

08:20.300 --> 08:22.540
Ever since we were kids...

08:22.540 --> 08:28.640
No matter the hardships, you never 
gave up and swam towards your dreams.

08:31.390 --> 08:36.340
You're a ray of hope to me.

08:37.240 --> 08:38.800
Can I leave it at that?

08:43.200 --> 08:45.190
<i>That was the time I thought to myself...</i>

08:46.480 --> 08:51.490
<i>"I'll continue to swim 
for Mizuho no matter what."</i>

08:52.740 --> 08:55.730
<i>I wanted to continue 
being her ray of hope.</i>

08:56.740 --> 08:58.370
It's past midnight now.

08:58.370 --> 09:00.650
That was your first kiss as a 17 year old.

09:01.030 --> 09:04.250
Happy Birthday, Kizuki.

09:05.130 --> 09:08.450
<i>I really did think that.</i>

09:14.970 --> 09:17.320
Here. From our first year in high school.

09:17.720 --> 09:19.910
Oh yeah, the inter-high preliminaries.

09:19.910 --> 09:22.380
I was so frustrated that 
I placed 3rd on that day.

09:22.380 --> 09:25.220
You also accidentally wore 
your senpai's sandals, right?

09:25.220 --> 09:27.700
Why did you even record that?

09:31.820 --> 09:35.030
Aren't you practicing too much, Kizuki?

09:35.030 --> 09:40.600
The virus finally calmed down, so new 
matches could start up again this season.

09:41.060 --> 09:42.960
Really?

09:42.960 --> 09:45.630
This is my last chance.

09:45.630 --> 09:49.920
I want Mizuho to see me swim 
at the inter-high finals.

09:59.180 --> 10:03.940

09:59.180 --> 10:03.940

Kizuki! Give it your all!

10:13.630 --> 10:16.330
You gotta win and make the inter-highs!

10:31.090 --> 10:33.580
What a bold declaration of victory.

10:33.580 --> 10:35.550
He's unstoppable.

10:35.550 --> 10:38.170
His eyes are totally just on Mizuho.

10:38.850 --> 10:40.330
<i>Take your marks!</i>

10:44.490 --> 10:46.100
<i>Back then...</i>

10:47.690 --> 10:50.150

10:51.610 --> 10:58.120

Hey, Kizuki?

11:15.050 --> 11:16.110
Did you get that?

11:16.110 --> 11:17.850
Yup! I did.

11:18.640 --> 11:22.420
Be sure to come back home during 
the Koigahama Fireworks Festival.

11:22.420 --> 11:24.590
We absolutely have to go together.

11:26.390 --> 11:28.060
Wh-What is it?

11:28.060 --> 11:32.690
You miss me because I got into college 
and live in the dorms now, right?

11:32.690 --> 11:35.490
Nuh-uh! I can visit you 
whenever I want to!

11:35.490 --> 11:37.270
You're not that far away!

11:39.350 --> 11:40.720
You're so cute, Mizuho!

Stop teasing me!

11:55.550 --> 11:57.230
We somehow made it.

11:57.580 --> 12:00.680
I'm so glad we made it just in time.

11:59.290 --> 12:02.910
So Mizuho's job searching now?

12:03.350 --> 12:04.430
Yup.

12:04.430 --> 12:06.390
She said she had an interview today, too.

12:06.390 --> 12:08.480
She's applied to 20 or 30 places by now.

12:09.780 --> 12:10.990
And you, Kizuki?

12:11.490 --> 12:15.470
I think I'll go to graduate school
for sports science next year.

12:16.200 --> 12:19.150
I'm still disappointed that I couldn't 
make the Japanese national team

12:19.150 --> 12:21.780
at last year's championships...

12:22.440 --> 12:25.810
I want to see how much 
I can push my skills

12:26.450 --> 12:28.310
and fight against all 
those amazing people

12:28.310 --> 12:30.500
with such high levels 
of effort and talent.

12:33.360 --> 12:37.810
You make me so mad with how cool you are.

12:37.810 --> 12:38.900
Ouch.

12:47.690 --> 12:49.520
It's no good at all.

12:50.060 --> 12:52.520
Hazawa's generation hasn't improved.

12:52.520 --> 12:55.430
But the kids after that 
are getting stronger.

12:55.910 --> 12:58.580
Could it be because 
they missed out on practice?

12:58.580 --> 13:01.010
They are the pandemic generation, after all.

13:01.010 --> 13:03.930
That crucial time when they could gain 
the most experience as a player

13:03.930 --> 13:05.700
is practically a blank slate, yeah.

13:19.770 --> 13:22.690
Your eyes used to 
light up so much about it.

13:23.220 --> 13:25.620
To think you'd quit swimming...

13:27.140 --> 13:28.800
I panicked.

13:33.150 --> 13:34.530
Hey! Kizuki!

13:37.640 --> 13:39.840
I'm telling you this as your doctor!

13:40.400 --> 13:43.570
You've been practicing 
without permission, haven't you?!

13:43.570 --> 13:45.910
Your shoulder's not 
in good shape right now!

13:45.910 --> 13:48.070
I understand you're in a rush 
to improve your results.

13:48.070 --> 13:50.080
But overworking will take 
a toll on your life!

13:52.370 --> 13:56.000
<i>I know about my body better 
than anyone else.</i>

13:58.970 --> 14:00.120
Gather around!

14:00.600 --> 14:02.430
Huh? Where's Kizuki?

14:11.410 --> 14:12.810
Here you go.

14:12.810 --> 14:14.520
The usual goodies.

14:15.570 --> 14:16.980
Thanks.

14:16.980 --> 14:18.820
Take it easy.

14:18.820 --> 14:21.720
I have plans with Chika, 
so I need to go now.

14:21.720 --> 14:23.340
Good luck on your practice!

14:23.970 --> 14:25.320
Hey...

14:25.320 --> 14:27.630
It's almost the qualifying match!

14:28.070 --> 14:30.330
You've been waiting for this day forever.

14:30.330 --> 14:32.830
I'm sure you'll do amazing!

14:33.320 --> 14:34.710
I'm rooting for you!

14:34.710 --> 14:36.320
Thanks.

14:36.320 --> 14:38.360
I'll do my best for you, Mizuho.

14:39.960 --> 14:42.000
<i>It's no good at all.</i>

14:43.370 --> 14:45.720
<i>Hazawa's generation hasn't improved.</i>

14:45.720 --> 14:48.390
<i>But the kids after that 
are getting stronger.</i>

14:48.390 --> 14:51.240
<i>Could it be because 
they missed out on practice?</i>

14:51.240 --> 14:53.350
<i>They are the pandemic generation, after all.</i>

14:53.640 --> 14:56.610
<i>That crucial time when they could gain 
the most experience as a player</i>

14:56.610 --> 14:58.530
<i>is practically a blank slate, yeah.</i>

15:09.910 --> 15:11.810
What do I do?

15:12.460 --> 15:15.010
You need immediate surgery.

15:15.710 --> 15:18.780
But if I undergo surgery,

15:18.780 --> 15:21.200
wouldn't that mean 
I won't be able to swim for a while?

15:21.200 --> 15:22.630
Exactly.

15:22.630 --> 15:25.060
Then what about the qualifying match?

15:25.060 --> 15:27.690
Unfortunately, you're going to 
have to sit this one out.

15:28.130 --> 15:32.030
For now, you need to rest 
and think about recovering your body.

15:32.510 --> 15:34.030
Please wait!

15:35.020 --> 15:37.010
It's not just the qualifying match.

15:37.010 --> 15:38.550
What about the next season?

15:38.550 --> 15:40.690
When would I recover?!

15:40.690 --> 15:43.270
I <i>can</i> go back to normal, right?!

15:43.270 --> 15:45.360
I'm sorry, but I can't make any promises.

15:46.290 --> 15:49.530
But if you don't do anything, 
you're going to stay like this.

15:52.620 --> 15:54.290

16:14.910 --> 16:16.680

16:25.570 --> 16:27.640
Don't rush, okay?

16:28.570 --> 16:29.950
Take it slow.

16:29.950 --> 16:31.680
Slow and steady.

16:36.830 --> 16:43.330
Resigning this season due to injuries

16:36.830 --> 16:43.330
Kizuki Hazawa (Athlete)

16:36.830 --> 16:43.330
Taichi Aida (Athlete)

16:37.740 --> 16:40.080
<i>And now for sports.</i>

16:40.080 --> 16:43.330
<i>Some bad news for Kizuki Hazawa, who 
has been gaining attention in swimming.</i>

16:43.330 --> 16:46.520
<i>Due to a previously 
reported shoulder injury,</i>

16:46.520 --> 16:51.160
<i>it was announced that he will miss 
all remaining events this season.</i>

16:51.160 --> 16:54.170
<i>At this time, there is 
no confirmed date for his return.</i>

16:52.800 --> 16:54.170
<i>I...</i>

16:56.930 --> 16:58.230
What I...

16:59.850 --> 17:01.810
Like about you...

17:01.810 --> 17:04.610
Why it had to be you...

17:04.610 --> 17:07.240
I can't think of a word 
that perfectly describes that.

17:09.610 --> 17:10.720
But...

17:11.800 --> 17:13.140
"Hope."

17:16.720 --> 17:19.040
Ever since we were kids...

17:19.040 --> 17:25.270
No matter the hardships, you never 
gave up and swam towards your dreams.

17:27.840 --> 17:32.870
You're a ray of hope to me.

17:33.760 --> 17:35.300
Can I leave it at that?

17:50.420 --> 17:54.730
<i>I can't be Mizuho's ray of hope.</i>

17:57.640 --> 17:59.710
You quit the swim team?!

18:00.500 --> 18:03.230
But you had surgery. You went to rehab.

18:03.230 --> 18:05.460
You've worked so hard!

18:06.010 --> 18:09.080
And your shoulder was 
getting better little by little.

18:09.080 --> 18:11.010
It was all pointless.

18:12.480 --> 18:13.930
It's not pointless!

18:13.930 --> 18:16.060
I know you don't really want to quit!

18:16.060 --> 18:17.610
You can't decide that for me.

18:17.610 --> 18:19.420
Why are you giving up?!

18:21.720 --> 18:23.340
What about you?

18:23.340 --> 18:27.760
You gave up your dreams to write manga 
and ended up an office worker.

18:32.710 --> 18:34.400
You don't have to give up.

18:34.400 --> 18:35.640
Keep going.

18:37.480 --> 18:39.480
If it gets hard and you want to cry,

18:39.920 --> 18:42.140
I'll wipe your tears away for you.

18:53.320 --> 18:56.310
I decided to start job searching.

18:56.310 --> 18:57.260
What?

18:57.590 --> 19:00.120
I'm starting so late that
 I'm worried I won't even get to be

19:00.120 --> 19:01.570
a normal office worker.

19:02.580 --> 19:04.100
But Mizuho...

19:04.100 --> 19:06.060
Are you okay with that?

19:06.640 --> 19:07.790
Yeah.

19:08.390 --> 19:11.380
I can just read manga as a side hobby.

19:11.380 --> 19:14.740
I want you to chase your dreams 
in my stead, Kizuki.

19:18.550 --> 19:21.770
Can't I finally give up, too?

19:23.670 --> 19:24.840
What?

19:25.790 --> 19:27.610
I'm not a kid anymore.

19:28.000 --> 19:31.670
I'm tired of foolishly chasing dreams.

19:32.820 --> 19:36.430
You're not a kid anymore, yeah. But...

19:39.250 --> 19:40.290
Well then.

19:48.680 --> 19:49.880
Wait!

19:52.820 --> 19:56.630
What about us?

20:02.830 --> 20:04.030
That day...

20:04.030 --> 20:06.050
I hurt Mizuho...

20:07.830 --> 20:09.400
and ran away.

20:12.840 --> 20:18.090
2030

20:13.140 --> 20:17.400
Then I got a job. 
Cut off contact with you all.

20:18.090 --> 20:20.190
And tried to forget everything.

20:21.640 --> 20:22.900
But...

20:25.010 --> 20:29.100
I just couldn't forget 
about swimming and Mizuho.

20:30.480 --> 20:35.120
In the end, I'm still 
that timid younger brother.

20:36.480 --> 20:39.310
Kizuki. It's okay.

20:40.120 --> 20:43.210
I'm sorry I brought this up.

20:44.040 --> 20:45.850
It must have been hard for you.

20:56.750 --> 21:00.290
I found this where you 
and Syugo were fighting.

21:00.290 --> 21:02.890
This old keychain...

21:02.890 --> 21:04.610
How long have you held onto this?

21:05.350 --> 21:07.770
I saw this and immediately figured it out.

21:07.770 --> 21:13.490
That your feelings for Mizuho 
haven't changed at all.

21:14.550 --> 21:16.520
You're the youngest.

21:16.520 --> 21:18.280
You do things at your own pace.

21:18.610 --> 21:20.150
You're a weakling.

21:21.350 --> 21:22.960
Too honest for your own good.

21:28.040 --> 21:30.040
<b>Graduation
Koigahama Municipal Elementary School</b>

21:31.950 --> 21:36.980
I knew that you only had eyes 
for Mizuho for a long time, Kizuki.

21:41.570 --> 21:45.810
That's because Mizuho's 
always been looking my way.

21:46.620 --> 21:49.170
Even when I was weak with my asthma,

21:49.170 --> 21:51.080
or when I couldn't improve my time,

21:51.080 --> 21:53.070
or when my soul was crushed...

21:54.370 --> 21:57.770
She made me stronger 
when I was at my weakest.

21:58.210 --> 22:02.120
That's why I'm so happy that 
my feelings were able to reach her!

22:03.030 --> 22:06.280
You were always looking straight forward.

22:07.030 --> 22:11.790
That's what I loved about you.

22:12.720 --> 22:13.790
Here.

22:15.260 --> 22:16.600
Airu...

22:16.600 --> 22:17.920
Stand up, Kizuki.

22:18.480 --> 22:20.500
If you still love Mizuho,

22:20.850 --> 22:23.930
you need to take a stand once more.

24:01.230 --> 24:03.390
<i>If you still love Mizuho,</i>

24:04.980 --> 24:08.070
<i>you need to take a stand once more.</i>
