#11 Awakening as a Forward

Kakeru Narration: One year has passed since Suguru-niichan's death...

\

Kakeru Nar: Kamakura Football Club,

Kakeru Nar: has advanced to the quarterfinals of the prefectural qualifying tournament, the last tournament the third-years will ever play in.

------

(page170)

Kakeru Nar: As the captain of the team, Yuusuke has taken on the role of the playmaker.

\

Kakeru Nar: Kouta is a starter as well, defending the left flank.
Kakeru Nar: He is ecstatic at getting a numbered uniform.

\

Kakeru Nar: And I...
have returned to the football club, and have become a player in the team again. [K: Happy cleaning. x.o]

Kakeru Speech: Defence-!!
Kakeru Speech: Speak up-!!

Kakeru Nar: I've worked hard, with my aim to become a starter-

\

Kakeru Nar: but I may finish my middle school football career,

Kakeru Speech: Get back, get back! The counterattack is coming from the right!

Kakeru Nar: with a numberless uniform.

------

(page171)

Kakeru: Great job, Yuusuke!
Yuusuke: Yeah.

Fanboys: You were great!

\

Guy: Captain, that was a nice pass! Thanks!* [K: *said in sumo slang]

Yuusuke: Oh, Sakaki! You shot well too!

Kouta: But you lost to me, though.

\

Nishijima: That's why you should stop being stupid and overlapping into our zone! Damn it Nakatsuka!

sfx: whack

Kouta: OW!

\

Kouta: You bastard, Nishijima, I'll kill you!!

sfx: whip whip whip
[K: NISHIJIMA IS A NINJA!!!]

\

Nana: Everybody worked very hard!
Nana: Have some Gatarade- [K: Make sure it's spelt right... :P as in, GatArade]

sfx: punch

Kouta: Omph- C... cross-countered...

------

(page172)

Kouta: Nana-cha~n!

\

Kouta: Feed me Gatarade through your mou...

sfx: gurgle

Nana: You worked hard-

Kakeru: Ye... yeah.

\

sfx right of bottle: glug glug glug

sfx left: twitch twitch

Kakeru: Kouta... the first-years are all staring.

\

Yuusuke: Okay,
today's practice is over. Once you've cleaned up you can leave!

Everyone: Yes!

Yuusuke: Tomorrow will just be a meeting to announce the team members, so rest up to prepare for the match the day after that!

\

Coach: Saeki.
Here's the day after tomorrow's starting lineup, and I've also changed the substitutes around a little.

Yuusuke: Yes, Coach Kumagai.

\

Yuusuke: That second-year Yanagi was added to the bench... Kakeru's name isn't there, huh...

sfx: flip

------

(page173)

Kunimatsu: Coach Kumagai, it's time for our recap meeting.

Kumagai: Mhmm.
Kumagai: Well, I'll be returning to the High School then.

Yuusuke: All right. Thank you very much.

\

\

sfx: nod

\

Yuusuke: Please, Kunimatsu-san...

\

\

Kumagai: ......
So, essentially, you're telling me to use Kakeru, Kunimatsu.

Kunimatsu: Yes.
I know that I am in no position to ask that of you, Coach.

\

Kunimatsu: But as their senior, who has seen them practice... [K: No idea what OB means... so I took the Chinese translation.. XD]

Kunimatsu: I would like to acknowledge Kakeru's effort since he ascended to his third year.

------

(page174)

Kunimatsu: The guy has changed.
Kakeru: Oof!

\

Kunimatsu: He's really working hard.

\

Kumagai: Kunimatsu.
When Suguru was here, I may have left that genius to manage most of the day-to-day affairs of the Middle School club,

but that doesn't mean that I didn't notice anything.

\

Kumagai: Kakeru can't be used in a real game.

Kunimatsu: B...
But...

------

(page175)

Kumagai: It's true that he does have the technique and the speed. But he's the type that can't do anything once in front of the goal.

Kunimatsu: Since he recovered from his injuries, he's scored deciding goals in the practice matches every time.

It's like he was another person before the accident. He's become more hardworking, and he can use his left leg with some skill now...

\

Kumagai: But if he is in an important match,

Kumagai: his shot will go wide again.

\

Kumagai: There is no need to treat him differently because he is Suguru's brother.

\

Nana: That Rock-Headed Coach~

\

Kakeru: Hey, Seven! Pass the ball over!

sfx ball: roll roll
sfx Nana: shake shake

------

(page176)

Nana: YOU'RE THE WORST-!!
sfx: WHAM

\

Kakeru: Agh!

Nana: Ah...

\

sfx: bounce bounce

Kunimatsu: Co... Coach?!

\

\

Nana: Kya! I.. I'm sor-
sfx: dash

\

Nana: Kakeru!?

sfx: slap slap slap
Bubble left: Feh!
Bubble right: Hah!

Kumagai: You no-good lout!

\

Kakeru: You're so terrible, Seve~n [K: if there is a way to make it the long ~. If not just use exclamation mark xD]
sfx: smart smart

Nana: Sorry. I'm really sorry, Kakeru.

No Ears: Is Kakeru-senpai really the Aizawa Suguru-san's brother?! [K: italicise the?]
sfx: snicker snicker

Fatter Bald: That's impossible, I mean look at him!
[small text] He's so soft?

------

(page177)

Yuusuke: Hey, first-year, what's so funny?

No Ears: Ah!
Captain.

Fatter Bald: So... sorry.

\

Yuusuke: If you have time to joke around, why don't you follow Kakeru's example? He's staying back after club to practice.

Yuusuke: Can you do it?

\

No Ears: Is that really practice?
It's just playing on the walls of the tennis club courts, isn't it?

Fatter Bald: Hey (next to his head not counting the... sweat thing.. XD)

\

Yuusuke: Go take a good look at the marks left on that wall, then.

\

No Ears: ...seriously.
No Ears: What's so special about this wall?

------

(page178)

NE/FB: H... hey. The marks are all concentrated in the same spot.

\

NE/FB: You... you're right!
There and there and... wait a second, this is...

NE/FB: Isn't it like the four corners of the goal?

------

(page179)

\

NE/FB: Does he run along here when he practices shooting?

NE/FB: It's around the distance between the edge of the penalty area and the goal.

NE/FB: Around 20 metres.

\

NE/FB: Awesome...

\

etc: That... that guy,
etc: Why doesn't he have a numbered uniform?

Kakeru: Today's horoscope said it was a good day!

------

(page180)

\

\

Kakeru: Well,
Kakeru: I'm going now, Nii-chan.

\

------

(page181)

\

Kakeru: Heey, Seven!

\

Seven: Ah! Kakeru .~ [K: That is, if you can find a music note.. XD If not, just put a '~' or something.]

\
Kakeru: Umm... you know, you should probably stop with the grey mask?

Nana: I wear it because it seems like you won't be serious if I don't!

\

Kakeru: Even so!
[small text] It's just too weird!

Nana: Come on, let's just kick off.

sfx: tap

\

sfx: thump

Kakeru: O-kay!
small text: Oops!

------

(page182) [K: thank you cleaners <3]

Nana: Hey, Kakeru, why is it always this park?

Kakeru: Hehe, that's because the field is wide enough. [K: Well, actually he says 'fufu' which is like an evil laugh XD But yeah.. <<]

\

Nana: Wide?

Kakeru: Yup. Can't you feel it, Seven?

\

Kakeru: This field's open space is about the same as the penalty area. [K: Must check.. because that would be kind of sad..]

Nana: Ah... I see...

\

Kakeru: Because the penalty area

------

(page183)

Kakeru: is where a striker does his work, you know.

\

Kakeru: Pwaaaah~

\

Nana: We may be working hard, but take care of your body, Kakeru.
In the morning you're always practising in club, and at night you're running around here...

Nana: huh
huh

Kakeru: huh
huh

Kakeru: It doesn't tire me out at all. It didn't even before the accident.

\

Kakeru: It's definitely
Kakeru: Nii-chan's gift...

\

Kakeru: Bbbut Seven, your technique is really awesome!

------

(page184)

Kakeru: You're good enough to be a starter for our football team!
How did you become so good, tell me!

Nana: I'll tell you later...

\

sfx: whup

\

sfx: sway

\

sfx: thump

\

\

Kakeru: ...awesome.

------

(page185)

Nana: Hey, Kakeru.

Kakeru: Hmm?

Nana: You're going to switch schools when we graduate to high school, right? [K: From this, we can determine that Kamakura is an escalator school, that is, once you enter the middle (or primary?!) school, you get passage all the way up to the end of high school or maybe even university. LOL don't include this!! I just felt like pointing it out! :P]

\

Kakeru: ...yeah.

Nana: I see...

\

Kakeru: It's because I'm Aizawa Suguru's brother.
Kakeru: I want to play football where nobody knows who I am.

\

Nana: They'll find out eventually.

Kakeru: It's still better that directly going up to Kamakura High.

\

Nana: ...I guess so.

sfx: tap

Kakeru: Yeah, right?

------

(page186-187)

Nana: That lump of a rock-headed coach is so narrow-minded.
Nana: Can he enjoy football that way?

sfx: wham

\

sfx: bang

\

Nana: Hey, Kakeru.
Kakeru: Hmm?

\

Nana: I also
Nana: want to go to the same high school that you are going to.

\

Kakeru: Eh?
sfx: ba-bump

\

Nana: Is that okay?

\

Kakeru: ......
yeah.

------

(page188)

Kakeru: Of course!

\

\

sfx: whumpf
Kakeru: GURGLE

\

Kakeru: Uuuuuun
Uuuuuuun
sfx: glug glug glug
glug glug

Nana: Kyaaaa! Kakeru, are you okay?!

Kakeru: Uuuuuuun
Uuuuuuun

Nana: Kakeru!
