Title: 84th.
Guy: Well, two people aren't here, but for now-----
Sign: Sannoji Bar
Guy: Long time no see!
You got fat, you bastard!
SFX: GACHIN
Nomi: No, no. I lost weight! I'm already 3 kilos down from my peak!
What about you, Oota-kun?
What's with those nerdy glasses?
Oo: They're not nerdy!
I just studied too much and my eyes got bad.
So, basketball----
how'd it go? The pro tryout?

Page 164:
Oo: ...Er,
I guess if you want to it then you wouldn't have gained all that weight, sorry.
Nomi: No...
Oo: But you can...
go to the next one, right?
Nomi: No...
Oo: ......
I see...
So you gave up, huh? On basketball...
Nomi: Would it be okay if I went to the gym you go to, Oota-kun? The martial arts one.
I've gotta get my body moving.
Oo: ......

Page 165:
Oo: I retired, too.
Being a pro was impossible in the first place,
but I don't even go to the gym anymore.
Explaining it's kind of a pain so I just say age was the reason when people ask, but really...
even if I pushed past people, my desire to become number one
sort of disappeared...
Finding what my opponents hang back from then playing that out is what martial arts is.
I did it for 7 years but...
I don't think I was suited to it.
Nomi: ...
Oo: People want to do what they enjoy doing.

Page 166:
Oo: And do something that serves a purpose to people-----
So now I'm doing a care-giving job.
Nomi: Hoh.
Oo: I've got confidence in my stamina, you know.
Later on I'd like to be a Seitai master, so I'm studying for that.
And in my own way, I was studying the body as a martial artist, too.
Nomi: Heh... You're really getting serious, aren't you, Oota-kun?
Oo: You think so?
Nomiya,

Page 167:
Oo: When I first retired,
it felt like the path ahead of me looked hazy.
But also that getting that far wasn't a waste.
And I thought my path seemed to be connecting to something like this.
Nomi: Next time, hook me up with a Seitai session, Oota-kun.
For free.
Oo: Yeah, of course.

SFX: SUUKOOO
Toga: Yamaaaaa
SFX: SUKOOO

Page 169:
SFX: SUKOOO SUKOOO SUKOOOOO
SFX: JIH
Oo: I'm his helper, Oota.
Toga: Ah...
I'm his friend.
Togawa.
Oo: Too hot in here?

Page 170:
Oo: He complains about the cold even in midsummer, so we can't put the AC on...
Toga: Ah,
okay.
!
Yama.
SFX: SUKOOO
Toga: Is he not able to talk anymore?
I've got a lot of stuff to report.
So why'd he say 'I want to talk'...?
Man, where do I start...
Ah, well, we won the Ooruri Cup.
And then----
Kanegon became captain. Did I tell you that?
It really sucks.

Page 171:
Yama: It's been a while, Kiyoharu.
Toga: What? You can talk?!
SFX: SUKOOOO
Yama: How 'bout we sit down?
Please, Oota-san.
Toga: Reggae.
A big a reggae fan as ever, huh, Yama?
Yama: Yeah.
It was summer back then, too.

Page 172:
SFX: DOSAH
Yama: God that hurts......
I started tripping a lot even when there was nothing there.
It became a hardship just to stand up.
And people would stare at the weird way I walked.

Page 173:
Yama: My body was odd.
I knew it was different from most people's.
But still, this was----
Sign: Municipal Library
Paper: type muscular distrophy
walking with undulation
prone to falling, stairs
decreased muscle [All these lines are cut off on both sides]
2nd Page: life in a wheelchair
from age 20 to 25
death by respiratory failure.
Sign: Taniha Hospital

Page 174:
Doctor: Well...
Could you do a little walking for me?
Yama: Huh...?
......
......
Doc: How long has this been going on?
Yama: Since I was 5 years old. I could manage it, but...
recently it's gotten bad.
Yama: Yes, this is rare.
This illness.
This is the first time this doctor's seen it.

Page 175:
Doc: This is muscular dystrophy. I'm quite certain of it.
Yama: I'm not a specimen.
What?
What?

Page 176:
Yama: When I came to my senses, I'd tripped again outside the hospital.
I'd looked it up, so I had some idea about it, but...
the sky looked pitch black.
Girl: Are you okay?
...!
......
Yama: I was probably making a face like a demon or something.
Why?

Page 177:
Yama: Why did I...
Why?

Page 178:
Yama: I heard this carefree
music.
Guy: 'Well, there are all sorts of people out there.'
Yama: I found out later that that was reggae music.
And the voice I heard was just some person's conversation that I happened to overhear.
But that...
felt like it was connected to my life somehow.

Page 179:
Toga: ......
I was a little scared to come here.
Hearing you moved,
and this text was all you sent me.
Yama: I guess it was kinda short.
Toga: Yeah, really short! ["really" in italics]
SFX: SUKOOO
Toga: Yama,
you're 20 years old now, right?
You can still talk...
'I'll die around age 20'------
Yama: ...
SFX: SUKOOO

Page 180:
Yama: That was true.
I nearly died.
SFX: SUKOOO
Oo: That's why we had you com here, Kiyoharu.
SFX: SUKOOO
Yama: There's something I want to talk to you about.
SFX: SUKOOO

Page 181:
Yama: I had weird dreams a lot.
Because I finally couldn't breathe that well anymore, so I slept lightly.
I know.
I'll die at age 20.
Then, so I don't cause anybody any trouble,
so I'm not bothering anyone, while I've got the chance,
one at a time...

Page 182:
Woman: HitoshI!
Hitoshi!!
Yama: Before I could be fussed over or positioned,
I made the first move.
I thought I'd make this body a joke myself------
Super positive
positive mask
#1
#2
Somebody: Tracheotomy......?!
But...

Page 183:
Mom: Then how will he talk and eat?
Doc: Are you willing to trade that for his life?
A tracheotomy is the only choice.
Yama: Positive Mast #3
Huh?
SFX: PISHIH

Page 184:
Label: Yamauchi Hitoshi
Yama: Are you gonna take everything in,
and then just quietly
go out like a flower that had finished blooming?
You're not that strong,
Yamauchi Hitoshi, you moron.
No.
You're not a moron.
Yamauchi,
Hitoshi isn't bad.
So I don't bother anyone?
You've gotta be kidding me.

Page 185:
Yama: It's not a sin to be sick, right?

Page 186:
Guys: How did you hear about this place?
Mom: Well, he...
he scoured the Internet researching it.
He heard about Doctor Hoketsu from reading blogs written by people with the same disease.
Guy: Izzat so?
There're many people here with the shyame disease.
Adults and children.
Much like myshelf once.

Page 187:
Doc: You've put on shome weight, haven't you?
We cannot cure the disease itshelf.
Nor can we better the shymptoms,
but
that man over there, Nomura-kun, is 29.
Taketomi-shaan, how old are you again?
Take: 38.
Toga: ...!!

Page 188:
Doc: There's shtill no way to cure it,
but as far as life span goes,
using progress made with breathing devices, we can really extend it.
With nutrition,
medicine,
and advances in rehabilitation----
some can live to 40,
or even 50 yearsh old.

Page 189:
Yama: When's the Tigers' next practice?
I wanna go watch.

Page 190:
Nurse: Ah, Takahashi-san.
Dad: Thanks for always helping Hisanobu out like this.
Nurse: Hisanobu-kun is outside.
Training.
Nobu: GUH
GUH
KUHAH

Page 191:
Girl: Become a young low-pointer
to succeed Nagai-san, okay?
Nobu: GAH!
Lady: Nagai did this for 2 hours.
Hey, hurry it up already! Don't you have balls, you tranny bastard!
Nobu: ......
SFX: PURE PURE
Nobu: KUH
GUH
...KU...
GUHAH
HAH
HAH
SFX: GOH GOH GOH GOH GOH
Nobu: GAHA
HA

Page 192:
Dad: Wheelchair basketball---------
Nurse: But they're saying that the Dreams are the #1 team in Tokyo.
His handsomeness has sort of risen! I'm all a twitter, Dad! [Heart]
Dad: Over me?
Nurse: No, Hisanobu-kun.
Dad: Oh, I see.
Nurse: I heard that he used to be on the basketball team but he wasn't serious about it.
Quite surprising.
Dad: Hisanobu------
I'm to blame for only knowing him in the days he took the minibus...
Nurse: ?
Dad: But Kobayashi-san--------

Page 193:
Nobu: HAA
HAA
2 hours? Is Nakai-san a monster?
After all that, I just barely made 20 minutes.
I can't even lift my arms anymore......!!
Shit.
Dad: The Hisanobu I know
was always a serious hard worker....

Page 194:
Oota: Good afternooooon!!
Nomi:?
Huh? Oota-kun?!
Oo: Nomiya?
What're you doing here?!
Guys: Hey!
Hold on.
No way...
Ya...

Page 195:
Yama: Are you guys really gonna be in the Japan Open?
Guys: Ya...
Yamaaaaa!!
SFX: OOO
Guys: That's crazy!!
How could the Tigers get into the Japan Open?!

Page 196:
Girl: They're replacing the Fukuoka Hawks that dropped out.
And they have the record of winning the Ooruri Cup and coming in 2nd in Tokyo.
Maybe it was easier to ask them since the event's held in Tokyo?
Guy: But man, this is unacceptable!
Guy: Who cares about the Tigers, Aoki?
Take a look at the bracket.
We can get revenge on the Warriors that beat us in the championship!!
That's out main focus going into this tournament!!
The Tigers don't have a prayer!!
Paper: Tokyo Tigers
Warriors [Top cut off]
rubers [Top cut off]
Choufu Dreams
Aoki: True,
but if by some prayer of a chance
we do end up against the Tigers, it'd be easy enough to put Takahashi in.
If he hasn't quit by then, that is.
Kekeke
Nobu: A match...
With the tigers...?
Like I care.

Page 197:
Nobu: Doesn't have anything to do with me.
I'm going to do laps outside.
Guy: There he goes again.....
What a grouch...
Aoki: Who does that newbie think he is?!
Nagai: But you know, he...
seems to have figured out what he needs.

Page 198:
Guy: That the team that
the legendary Katsuta Tora made, the Tokyo Tigers.
I don't know much about it, but Yama here knows about when the team was established.
Anything you can tell us, Yama?
Yama: Well, back then the Tigers...
were led by Tora-san and were sorta......
SFX: SUKOOO SUKOOOO
Yama: bad, I guess?
Ryou: They were basically a bunch of roughnecks.
Arguments and fights within the team was an everyday occurance.
And in games, I always had a thankless role.
SFX: SUKOOO SUKOOO
Toga: ...

Page 199:
Yama: But that was okay.
That was in the Tigers' genes.
SFX: SUKOO
Toga: Yama.
Yama: Silence the guys that can't perform.
SFX: SUKOOO
Yama: Those Dreams guys have really been at it a while now------
So of course they're sitting on the kings of Tokyo throne.
......
SFX: CHUUU
Ryou: ......

Page 200:
Yama: Tear them down off that throne.
SFX: SUKOOOO

Page 201:
