Chapter 41: Passion and Belief

Page 63
1- The ball… It disappeared!
2- Huh?
3- What did you do earlier?
4- Didn’t you try to determine the ball’s position before you faked?
5- That was why I was following you and then the ball vanished…
6- But… that was just a fluke…
7- Actually I lost my control over the ball earlier. But at that moment…
8- !
9- What is it?
10- Did you know what you have done to dribble past me?
11- Huh?

Page 64
1- You have just done the ‘Disappearing ball’…
2- It is a complacent technique discovered by a certain genius player.
3- A ‘Phantom’ fake.
4- Phantom … Phantom fake?
5- Can you still remember how you did it?
6- Ehr… maybe a little.
7- Let’s practice more of it before you forget on how you did it.
8- Okay… I will try.
9- If it is just a fluke earlier, he wouldn’t have been able to execute it beautifully.
10- That technique is not easy to begin with.

Page 65
1- Hmm, I remember it is like this. // Wah, I can’t do it. It has to be a fluke earlier.
2- Keep your concentration focus on the ball!
3- Huh? But I would have to look at the ball in order to concentrate. // How am I able to do it?
4- It isn’t really total concentration if you keep relying on your sight. Buck up and try and remember what you did just now.
5- Maybe Kakeru haven’t noticed it…
6- That technique could have been a ‘miracle’ born from Kakeru’s outstanding level of concentration…
7- If that is the case, his ball control weakness…
8- Could perhaps be overcome through using this technique.
9- Concentrate…
10- Sfx: Da-Bump
11- …!

Page 66
1- I… I succeeded!
2- …
3- Seven?
4- Hah, I’m sorry. Let’s practice a few more times. // We have to start practicing from today till the day when we can put it in use in the real battle.
5- Heh.
6- …
7- What was it exactly?
8- To be able to use the ‘Phantom’ fake with total concentration.
9- Is it Kakeru’s talent awakening?
10- Or is it…

2- Sfx: Dash
3- Bring it on!
4- Here I come!
5- Damn!
6- Sfx: Stomp
7- Doh, you still looked at the ball when you are trying a fake!
8- Hah… Yes!
9- Hah, it’s from bottom again!
10- Sfx: Shudder
11- Just relying on your height for a confrontation, isn’t enough Takase!
12- If you polished up on your footwork, you will never make it onto the field and compete!
13- …
14- Damn!
15- Sfx: Punched

Page 68
1- Oh!
2- Sfx: Spurt
3- Matoba, it’s all yours!
4- Yes!
5- Sfx: Bam
6- Araki- sempai!
7- Sfx: Bam
8- It’s great!
9- Sfx: Pon

Page 69
1- Hah!
2- Sfx: Catch
3- Pui!
4- You could have just went for a normal shoot, couldn’t you Araki?
5- That would just be too boring. // That was a magical lob.
6- …
7- Araki! It’s almost competition soon! Can you at least be serious?
8- Eh? Kaiouji Gou, I’m not fooling around. // I should be practicing the lob whenever I have the chance to during training for the sake of using it properly in competition.
9- Let’s all forget about it. // You’re all in the same team. Shouldn’t you get along with each other?
10- What are you up to again, fat pig?
11- Sfx: Stare
12- Who are you calling fat pig?
13- …
14- …

Page 70
1- What are we going to do next, Matoko?
2- Hehe… You will know it once Iwaki arrived.
3- …?
4- Sorry to make everyone wait.
5- We can go now.
6- Sfx: Taa- Dah
7- ?

1- Board: Enoshima Community Field
2- We have to be quiet for now. It wouldn’t be good if we are discovered!
3- Yay!
4- …
5- …
6- Okay, it’s the infiltration battle.
7- Be quiet!
8- Shh…
9- Sfx: Smack
10- You will be nosier if you did that!
11- Sfx: Hahaha
12- …
13- …

Page 72
1- !
2- Huh? Oda, Sawamura and Kaiouji, what about you guys?
3- We don’t want to go in.
4- Eh?
5- It would be troublesome if we get caught,
6- performing this thieving act.
7- Ehr… No, this is…
8- I’m sorry but we have to go off.
9- Hah… wait up…
10- Wait up a moment!
11- Can you guys allow me to explain?
12- Hey!
13- …
14- What are we going to do?
15- Hmm…

Page 73
1- Oda, Sawamura, Kaiouji!
2- !
3- Coach Kondou.
4- We can’t really…
5- accept Coach Iwaki.
6- Look at Araki! He doesn’t pay attention to his physical conditioning and become fat due to overeating.
7- If the trusted playmaker is like that, it would eventually affect the team as a whole. Coach Iwaki is too naive!
8- Wait a moment! Iwaki has his ideas on how to deal with Araki.
9- I have asked him on this and heard his ideas. I thought it might be worth to give it a try.

Page 74
1- It is not just that. He secretly snuck into the field at night…
2- That is also one of the ways he expressed himself. I was quite surprised when I learn of this.
3- Why are you speaking up for Iwaki?
4- About this, I want to let you see something!
5- Can you guys come out for a moment later?
6- I will contact you guys later then.
7- …
8- To call us out this late, // I wonder what is Coach Kondou going to show to us?// Don’t tell me he wants us to practice again?
9- No matter what is it, I’ve already made up my mind. I’m not participating in this team any longer. // Besides if I withdraw from the team, I could still join other clubs.

Page 75
1- Sorry to make you guys wait.
2- Coach Kondou.
3- It is here. Be careful not to get spotted.
4- Drill…
5- Drill…
6- A construction site?
7- Sfx: GAAAAHH
8- Sfx: Rwwhhhh
9- What are we to see here?
10- …

Page 76
1- Sfx: Brrrrr
2- Sfx: Brrrrr
3- Sfx: GAAAAHH
4- Come over here to carry the clement sack!
5- Newcomer!
6- Ehr… what on earth is Coach Iwaki doing here?
7- I happened to chanced upon this before and asked him the same question like you do. // In the end…
8- Hah… I didn’t expect you to find out. Hahaha…

Page 77
1- Frankly speaking, I have been doing it since FC’s beginning. I have rented the field// under the condition of not using the field’s lightning as a cheaper alternative.
2- What?
3- That’s because I want to let them experience the feeling of playing on the pitch.
4- But just relying on my salary is not sufficient.
5- …
6- Hah… Please don’t leak this to the rest of the team. To them, we are just using it freely.
7- Why do you want to do it like this?
8- I don’t want them to worry for me unnecessarily.
9- If they are to help me, I would have a bigger headache. Hahaha…

Page 78
1- Speaking of which, I wouldn’t do this myself.
2- That is why I want to believe in everything he does.
3- What do you guys think?
4- …
5- I know his method is still lacking compared to mine.
6- But the truth is…
7- The present team is better at adapting in tougher physical training than SC.
8- …
9- The techniques also have improved.
10- And the one responsible for this is Coach Iwaki’s passion…
11- and his belief on fun football.

Page 79
1- About his methods,
2- Won’t you want to give it a try?
3- At least he isn’t the irresponsible type, //isn’t a person whose simple idea that would lead the entire team to degeneration.
4- This is what I believe in.
5- Let’s take a rest okay.
6- All right.
7- …
8- Yes.

8- Hohoho, what a kick!
9- Indeed!
10- Are you here for an outdoor seawater bath, Oda?
11- Sfx: Hahaha
12- Sfx: Glare
Page 81
1- You guys are irritating!
2- Yah… Oda loves getting angry…
3- The training is over.
4- Let’s stick with the usual. The team that loses will have to treat the winner canned drinks.
5- Hah…
6- Damn it, we really lost.
7- Gather here!
8- Let’s return to the class for a meeting.

1- Today I am going to give out…
2- The 20 main member Enoshima High’s representative spots…// for the preparation of next week’s competition.

6- It’s finally here.
7- The time for the main players’ confirmation has arrived!
