Round 53: an honest jester\\
1
Thug: we are finally there\\
Rei: yeah\\
Inserted: the finals of the inter high preliminaries in the chiba prefecture begins…\\
Girl: … this is such a strange scenery…\\
Girl: just one year ago there was a difference between dachi high and ishi high\\ as big as the difference between sky and earth\\
Girl: and now those two schools are going to face each other in the finals…\\ this is why… I cannot help but to be interested in high school sumo\\
?: first battle…\\
2
?: eastern corner mitsuhashi-kun\\
hot: yes!\\
?: western corner, mamiya-kun\\
3
?: … dachi high…\\ is ready for their first defeat, huh…\\
??: yeah…\\
?: the fact that they won their way up here is proof of their strength\\ but as total strength ishi high is still higher\\
?: until now ishi high won all the matches with 5 victories and no defeats straight…\\
?: in comparison dachi high only realized in all matches 4 victories and one defeat\\ and the reason for that is\\
?: mitsuhashi complete defeats in those matches\\
?: they barely have the numbers to participate to this tournament after all\\
??: they also got the order wrong\\ they should have used him as sacrificial stone against sada…\\
?: they are such idiots, mamiya is strong after all\\
4
miya: … I have to say that I like this guy called mitsuhashi\\ he has guts\\
miya: generally beginners are too afraid to attack their opponents head on\\
miya: but he… in every match attacked his opponents head on without any fear of losing\\
miya: he doesn’t have the physique, but he is polishing his stile for straightforward fights\\ maybe it is too much to say that he fights like onimaru, but…\\
miya: probably he joined the sumo club\\ out of admiration for onimaru\\
girl: …\\ admiration toward onimaru, huh…\\
girl: … probably he is not realizing it because he is still immature\\ but the path he is following is very harsh… furthermore…\\
5
girl: he is really far from any chance of victory…\\
?: his weight surpasses the 100 kg!!\\ it is easy to understand how this will end!\\
tera: … I wonder if dachi high really has a chance of winning…\\
tera: as things stand now to obtain three victories against ishi high is an extremely difficult feat\\ there is no hole in ishi high’s formation\\
tera: yet they have decided to throw to the wind one possible chance of victory…\\ basically dachi high has only 4 people fighting right now…\\
6
boss: … it is true that dachi high is at disadvantage here\\ one defeat at this stage would be heavy…\\
boss: but…\\
boss: the expression on his face\\ clearly tell us that he is well aware of such a thing\\
boss: furthermore the other members of the club that sent him to fight\\ do not seem to think that they are fighting just in four…\\
7
hot: 2 or 3 years will not do it…\\
hot: I know that this is reckless…\\ but I will do anything…!\\
hot: please teach me a way…\\ to win during the inter high…!\\
ki: … mitsuhashi did many unreasonable things until now…\\ but, just as they say…\\ it was really a long way to reach this point…\\
ki: … yet I…\\
?: begin!\\
hot: guhah!!\\
8
ki: … to be honest your will\\ to attack your opponent head on is a great feat…\\
hot: … you are behaving in a strange way since you came back from ishi high…\\
hot: if you want to tell me something just say it\\ as things are now, my feelings will got get hurt no matter what you say\\
ki: you are really doing well…\\ but ishi high’s improvements have surpassed my expectations…\\ we don’t have much time left…\\
9
ki: if we continue like this…\\ you will not be ready for the inter high tournament…\\
?: put your hands on the ground!\\
ma: … he did not falter even after seeing the difference in physique\\ and he continues to be obsessive with attacking head on…\\
ma: but this is the battlefield where we have put our chances to go on the nationals on the line\\
10
ma: against such people people who get on the ring with such frivolous feelings \\ I don’t ever restrain myself even if they are beginners\\
ki: as their coach… I could not give up on mitsuhashi no matter what…\\
ki: I didn’t understand a thing… about you…\\ yeah…\\
ki: I looked down on\\
ki: your determination…!\\
?: begin!!\\
11
ma: he’s disappeared…\\
ma: I was focusing on the opponent in front of me\\ and in the moment I narrowed my field of vision as much a possible…\\
12
ma: he has disappeared\\
ma: below!?\\ from the side!?\\
ma: in sumo even a distraction that lasts a fraction of a second\\
ma: could result in your death\\
hot: eight boats jump…\\
13
?: h-…\\ he jumped!?\\
girl: … you must have planned a move like that in order to execute it in such a way!\\ he was clearly trained for it…\\
girl: could it be that all the defeats until now\\ were so that… his final opponent would not think that he would change the direction of his charge?\\
girl: it was a bait!?\\
15
hot: we will not make it in time?\\
ki: yeah…\\
ki: your body is reacting to the training better than before\\ but your body will not last against the overwhelming strength of a powerful opponent\\
ki: no matter what plan we can use\\
ki: we can make a change in direction of the charge, but…\\
ki: I don’t want to suggest such a thing…\\ to someone who admires onimaru just as you do\\
ki: just like onimaru who is following his ideals,\\ probably there is no meaning in twisting your own ideals in order to win a match in sumo…\\
ki: and you could even get taller in the future…\\
hot: what do you mean when you talk about my ideals?\\
16
hot: … onimaru-san has spent a lot of time for his own ideals\\ and yet he could not reach them even they were in front of his eyes\\
hot: right now I cannot lightly imitate a style similar to that of hinomaru-san\\ and then when I will fight and lose against my opponent of ishi high…\\
hot: just say… “sorry I have lost”…\\
hot: I don’t know what will happed in the future…\\
hot: but the only thing I can say is\\ that both ozeki-san and gojou-san will not be there in that future…\\
hot: both hinomaru-san and ozeki-san\\ have accepted me with a smile on their faces\\ even if they knew that I would be a burden to them…\\
hot :and even gojou-san and kunisaki-san…\\ they could made someone stronger than me join the club, even if they had to drag him all the way here if they really wanted it…\\
hot: and yet they didn’t do such a thing, and continued to watch over me…\\
17
hot: I already told you, right…\\ 2 or 3 years will not do it…\\
hot: I will do anything…!\\
hot: if I can be useful to everyone when they really need it\\ then I am ready to throw away\\
hot: my admiration, my ideals and even my future!\\
ki: … if he used this kind of charge since the beginning\\ probably he would have gained several victories before the finals\\
ki: but the thing you wanted weren’t those victories\\ you even threw away the “victories in front of your eyes” and continued to suffer honorable defeats…\\
18
ki: you continued to act like a honest jester\\ so that the thought that you would try a change in the direction of the initial charge would never pass through the head of your opponent\\ so that he would not be cautious about such a thing!\\
ki: in order to raise your chances of victory as much as possible!\\ yes, it was all…\\
ki: to win against ishi high!!\\
box: to suffer a defeat in sumo\\ is equal to death\\
19
ki: you threw away everything you could…\\
ki: you entered the sumo club because you wanted to become like hinomaru…\\ and you even threw away those feelings…\\
ki: and when you came here you only received cruel words…\\
ki: you put everything on the line\\
ki: mitsuhashi!!\\
ki: win!!\\
ki: so that you could win this match!!\\
inserted: there is nothing out there except for this victory…!!\\
