P182

T: me…!?
Nurse: You’re his senpai here // Shiratori-san, ask Takahashi-kun everything you want to know

S: Thanks senpai

T: Yeah // I really don’t want to…

P183

T: Haa // haa // haa
Ishibashi: You’re out of time Hisanobu!

T: Shit! It’s a pain to do even 1 floor trance // how can I do a set of 5!! // it’s impossible to do both sides!!
Haa // haa // haa // haa

H: Phew // the opposite of phew…

P184

H: weph (laughs)

T: How can he do it but I can’t!?
Haa // haa

H: Ehh / spicy // pheww

T: There must be some trick… // a trick to make it easier…

H: A trick? // it depends on the person

H: asking someone extraordinary like me won’t help…

P185

H: Hehehe // I’m a perennial loser // I always failed physical education // I can’t do anything right / hehe // huh?

H: You’ve got a spinal cord injury right? / where?

T: The 7th of my thoracic // you?

P186

H: The 5th of my thoracic // we bunch disabled people together // but we’re so different…

H: I’m always conscious of how my body is / and how it moves… // and try to open up every part of my body

H: Open!! // gyupa! // like that

P187

H: You don’t know? // Open gypa!

H: Hm…? // you want?
T: No… // um…

P188

T: Um...how / did you injure your spine?

P189

T: You were waiting for the light to change and a drunk driver…? / crashed into you? That’s terrible… // you didn’t do anything wrong…

H: Yes / I was patiently waiting for the light to change even though I was in a rush // I was so anxious…

T: Were you on a way to a date…? // unbelievable…

H: A limit of 30 // super rare bandaged version // of Rurikawa Mikuri-tan’s
T: A figurine!? / a release of that!?

P190

H: I left my house at 5am…
T: That’s so early!!

Dr: Kobayashi-kun

Nurse: You want me to call Takahashi-kun’s mother? / for what?
Dr: Tell her not to worry about her son // and to worry about getting better herself

P191

Dr: Tell her she’ll be surprised when she sees him again
Nurse: yes sir!

P192

I’m going to inspect // my future team

Nomiya: Uwo!!

P193

This guy is going to be up against me as the point guard position // Anzai Yoshiki!!

P194

N: Hmm he’s pretty good / that’s a strong rival… // wait… // he’s crazy!

P195

Team: Yoshiki! // Yoshiki / Anzai!
N: Impressive No. 1 star of the team / he’s got it all

N: Speed // shooting skills // and good looks

I might not be able to beat him even with my best speed skills

P196

I shouldn’t have come here to watch… // I should have just tried it out without knowing… // wait, I’ve got no intention of losing!! I’m going to win!!

N: Hm…? // wait this team is losing

P197

He has to get inside
N: I would pass it

The shooter is free!!
N: Huh!?

P198

Or go in yourself inviting the other team to foul and get a chance at free-throw // that…works too…

P199

It’s pointless that the center position keeps doing a post-up but the ball never makes it // and they can’t grasp the rhythm is the shooter doesn’t get any passes when he’s open // the shooter’s reason for existence is to shoot

But the star SP won’t give up the ball // that’s why they’ll be defeated

P200

If I were the PG…

I’m glad I saw this // I know now what I have to do / there’s 2 more months until tryouts // I can still make it…!!

P201

T: This is where we do rehab… // this is…

S: Is there a place to smoke?
T: huh?
S: I’m not used to a wheelchair so I’m tried

Nurse: GYA!!

P202

S: here // senpai

T: Thanks

T: Aren’t you cold in a T-shirt?

S: Hm…

He’s got goosebumps…what’s he showing off for…?

S: You’re still pretty young…are you still in high school?
T: I’m a senior… if I was still going
S: Hm? You dropped out?
T: Not officially…but I think I will

P203

S: It’s hard to go now?

T: No… // not really…

S: Hm… // mm…

S: oops / you want some?

S: Well you don’t have to go if you don’t want to / I quit in my first year too // it’s hard to go after I was admitted
T: to the hospital?
S: No, the reformary

P204

S: There was some rivalry going on back then

A fight // how lame

S: “We’re the toughest around here’’ // “no we are” // “no we are!!”

S: Didn’t you know people like that? / always fightin’
T: Not really… // our school wasn’t as tough…

S: Strength equaled // superior / cool / status

P205

S: I just wanted to be strong and it was the only thing in my heart… / so when I was about your age I started / my job…
T: Pro-wrestling right? / I heard from Kobayashi-san

T: Did you have an accident during a fight…? / your spinal injury…

S: No it was a car accident // I didn’t make the curb on my motorcycle / and crashed into a dumpcar

T: I also crashed into a truck on a bike… / we’re the same… // which part of your spine?
S: The first, you…?

T: The 7th // you’re better off than me

P206

S: For me, who just got here / you look a lot stronger than me

T: NO / I doubt that!

S: Thinking about it now, I’ve wanted to be strong since I was a kid / I always said I wanted to be stronger

P207

S: And this is where I am now… // what society calls // the weakest members of society

P208

S: I wonder what strength is Takahashi-kun… // I want to be strong

P209
