Kakeru: How do I look? Nii-chan, this is the uniform of Enoshima High School, where the midfielder that you acknowledged goes. Today's the school entrance ceremony.

Nana: We're going in together, Suguru-san. Does the uniform suit us?

#19 Enoshima High Football Club?

\

Nana: Look, the buttons are in front.

sfx: dazed~

Mito: Kake-nii, you're drooling.

\

Nana: Well, we have a place we need to be at, so see you for now.

Mum: Kakeru, do you have your medicine?

Kakeru: I got it!

(page172)

sfx: creak

\

kakeru: I kinda feel nostalgic.
Nana: Me too.

\

Kakeru: Excuse me... it's the graduation ceremony for the middle-school gradutes...

Guy: Ah, I understand. Come in.

Kakeru: Thank you very much.

\

sfx: aaaahh

(page173)

Sakaki: Ah! Kakeru-sempai, hi!

Kakeru: Ah, Sakaki!
Kakeru: The high school's started practising already, right?

\

Sakaki: Of course.
Saeki-sempai's pretty much going to be a starter soon and play in a few mini-games.

Kakeru: Wow... that's Yuusuke for you! What about Kouta?

\

Sakaki: Eh? Didn't you hear?
Kouta-sempai's grades weren't good enough to get him into the high school section in the end, or something like that.

Kakeru/Nana: Whaaaaaaaat!?

\

Kakeru: But in the graduation ceremony he didn't say anything...

Sakaki: Maybe because it was too embarrassing, so he didn't want to?

Nana: No wonder he was crying so hard that day...

\

Kakeru: ...don't... don't tell me he got retained?

Sakaki: Nah, I heard that he studied the core subjects really hard,
and after some second exam after the graduation ceremony he miraculously got picked up by another school...

Kakeru: I... I see. That's good... I'll call him tonight.

\

Kakeru: Work hard, Sakaki.
Nana: See you, Sakaki-kun. Work hard!

Sakaki: Yes, see you!

------

(page174)

Nana: Ah... look, they're practising. Saeki-kun's running!

Kakeru: Yep.

\

\

Nana: ...they're good.
As expected of Kamakura's high school team.

\

Kakeru: Yep.

\

sfx: ba-bump...

sfx left: ba-bump

(page175)

Nana: Kakeru... aren't you going to talk to them?

\

Kakeru: There isn't any need to. All of us don't have the time to think back to our middle school days.
We all have to start practising hard for the right to represent our school in the high school tournaments.

Kakeru: I'll have to be working hard in my own high school, too.

\

\

Nana: Yes!

Kunimatsu: Hey, Yuusuke, look!
Yuusuke: Eh?

\

\

\

Kunimatsu: The entrance ceremony for Enoshima High's today...
I heard that since last year there's been some stuff going on there...

Yuusuke: He'll be okay.

\

Yuusuke: Kakeru will.

Kunimatsu: ...yeah.

Guy: If you're a man, then go for the baseball club!! Let's aim for the Koshien!! [K: The Koshien is basically the baseball equivalent of national Inter-High.]

sfx: chatter (one on right of basketball bubble, one under baseball bubble)

Guy: Won't you try basketball? We're extremely beginner-friendly!!

Guy under basketball: Choose the badminton club!!

\

Kakeru: W... wow, this is amazing. Everybody looks so enthusiastic.

bubble under Kakeru: It has to be the tennis club!!

bubble next to Kakeru: The table tennis club! Join the table tennis club!

Nana: Yeah, it looks fun!

Kakeru: It would be great if there was a girl's football club.
Seven, I think that you would quickly become the team's ace.

sfx: THUD

Nana: ...I'm fine with being the manager of your football club.

\

Kakeru: Whaaaaaaaaaaat!? That would be such a waste with your awesome technique...

Nana: ...yeah, well, it's all thanks to practising with you that I actually haven't gotten worse.

\

Kakeru: Hmmmmmph.
sfx: silence
Nana: Wh... What?

Kakeru: You're hiding something, aren't you?

\

Nana: No, no!
Anyway, let's look for the football club before the entrance ceremony.

Kakeru: Ah!

sfx Nana: pull

sfx blonde dude: twitch

Mako: Football?

\

Mako: Coming right up!
The football club exists, good sir and madam! [K: he's using archaic language on purpose, even as i fail to get it across..]

sfx: pull

Kakeru: Aaaaah!
Nana: Eeeek!

\

Kakeru: We... We've been brought somewhere really remote.

Nana: Yeah... but Enoshima High won first place in the prefectural championships, a long time ago.
And they say that the year before last the school authorities even set the nationals as their target, and hired a new coach...

Kakeru: Oh yeah... Umm... sempai,

Makoto: Ah, I'm Hyodou Makoto. Just Mako's fine.

Kakeru: Oh, okay... Mako-san,

\

Kakeru: I heard that in the football club,
there is a 2nd year midfielder known as Araki-san.

Makoto: Araki? You know about Araki?

Kakeru: Yeah, he makes really good passes...

\

Makoto: Aaah... it sucks to be his partner.
I've been in his group for a year already, and he's like a machine gun who doesn't give people their own personal space. Ha ha ha.

Kakeru: Wow... that's amazing.
His physical endurance must be quite high.

\

Nana: A machine gun who doesn't give people their own personal space?

Horikawa: You're pretty loaded. It was expensive, right?

sfx right: silence...
sfx left: pat pat

Kakeru: Ye... Yeah, it was to celebrate my entrance into high school.

Horikawa: But just wearing it normally would be such a waste... You'd wear down the studs.

\

Kakeru: Ah, that's why I bought a shoe with removable spikes.

sfx: zip

Kakeru small text: You're too close...

Hori: Oh...?

\

Kakeru: If I wear it everywhere, and not just on the pitch, my feet will get used to them.

Kakeru: I'll just put the spikes on when there's a game.

\

Hori: Kesshehsheh, this one's interesting.

sfx: kesheh

Hori: You're really unique, aren't you? Kssshh

Nana: Hey, he's kind of gross...

blurb: Kakeru found out his brother Suguru's real feelings and swore to keep on playing football. But once again, he finds himself on the bench in the last game of his middle school career. The excellent defenders of the opponent put Kamakura at a complete standstill. Then, accepting the challenge of his brother's rival, Kakeru stands on the pitch...!!
