1- The national high-school football tournament…
2- Sfx: Waa Waa Waa
3- Sfx: Wham
4- Wah
5- Is also dubbed as the seasonal opener for the first month of the lunar year.
6- The second memorial published!!
7- It is because of the extra space, we will be using it to introduce the other characters!!
8- Number 2
9- Touzan’s Onii-san
10- Although he is from the Kansai, he doesn’t speak with the Kansai accent. But his personality is messed up. He is well-equipped on the football know-how but has no clue on its technique. After re-reading this book, we found out that even though he is from Canada and on why did he went over to Canada in the first place, even the author has no idea about it. Height 181cm, Weight 65Kg, Possess a slim stature.

1- But the participating schools, numbering from 200 to 300 areas, have begun the tournament since last year’s July to August period (Although it is a winter tournament).
2- Sfx: Heh Heh Heh
3- Sfx: Waa Waa
4- Sfx: Heh
5- After these schools in were spitted into several groups for the first round, they were forced to played in the elimination matches under the summer heat (Around 4 matches). And the surviving teams will get the right to play in the second round that will be held from September to October (Around 4 to 5 matches).
6- The entire point is that it is going to be tough. // and hot.
7- But …
8- Come to think of this…
9- Spring High School General Sports Meeting and Shiga County High School tournament
10- Our county only has 64 schools…
11- As long as we win the next 5 matches, we will be able to advance into the nationals…
Page 3
1- Looking at things, isn’t it more advantageous for our side?
2- But it is also not easy either.
3- Although we are not a seeded team, as long as we are lucky in our ballot and win four other teams, we will be able to advance to the nationals!!
4- Just wait and see, you city dwellers!!
5- And the tournament will begin in late October.
6- Isn’t this similar to authority centralization?
7- Countryside banzai!!
8- Firm Resolution!
9- That is why within this period, we have no other choice but to strengthen up…
10- Sfx: Bump

2- Hehehe
3- Not badly done!
4- Yo!
5- This is nothing, it is easily done.
6- TL note: A hat-trick occurs when a player scores three goals within the same match.
7- It is that number 16 again.
8- I heard that person just came back from Italy.
9- Is it the truth?
10- Why is there this type of person that that school…
11- I am not sure of the details myself…
12- But I heard that they drew with Kusatsu Hidari just last month.
13- It can’t be?
14- Huh!? They drew with that National second-placed team!!
15- Sfx: Waa Waa
16- Isn’t Chikubushima a one- man team, whose play is directed by that tall number 10 if I can remember?
Page 7
1- Chikubushima this time round is a bit different…
2- Nice shot!
3- Hehehe…
4- Go ahead and praise me, you guys.
5- Pay attention to my perfect techniques! And also remember my existence!!
6- Your condition seems to be all right, Nagahama-san.
7- Eh, this performance doesn’t matter at all!
8- And I will soon replace your position! Just open your eyes wide and look carefully!

Page 10
1- Aah! Waa…! Matsuri-sempai!!
2- What… What… exactly happened?
3- !! // Is it my hat-trick performance that reignited the others!? // Damn!
4- The 30 metres bullet shot blasted through…!!

11- Sfx: Whoa Whoa Waa
12- Other school’s girls
13- Damn, even if I am outperformed, I will still prevail at the end!!

15- Sfx: Peep
16- The first half has ended…!!
17- Waa
18- Slip
19- Aah?
20- Great, it feels good.
21- Everyone, good performance!
Page 11
1- Rakuichi hasn’t been playing for a while, do you still have the stamina to carry on with the second half?
2- It’s okay
3- Sfx: Huff Huff
4- There is no problem at all!
5- Touzan and Matsuri are performing at their peak, you guys have to continue scoring in the second half!!
6- All right
7- Roger!!
8- Whoa… It is already 7-0 in the first half…
9- Waa…
10- Everyone has to score 3 goals each in the second half
11- That’s impossible
12- Waa…
13- The female coach is the best…
14- Sfx: Thump
15- Chikubushima Public High’s playing seems to be not bad.
16- If it was me, I would have already gotten ten goals.
17- That is because their opponent is too weak!
Page 12
1- Ugh!
2- If it was us, we will have beaten them till they are black and blue all over!
3- Black and blue all over eh…
4- Besides, instead of focusing on Azuchi or that person who just return from Italy…
5- I feel that we should focus on that Number 11 midfielder. That person is Chikubushima’s core player…
6- You are so enthusiastic lately, which tendon has not been working?
7- There isn’t.
8- Hey look at this!
9- Isn’t that Kusatsu Hidari’s Hatanoshou? // Am I right?
10- Huh!? Isn’t he the defender from that youth team?
11- That’s right, Sempai! It was that long hair’s introduction in the last friendly that cause us to unable to grasp their team’s strength!!
12- Yeah.
13- But…
14- Photograph
15- Sigh!
16- Even if the team has two capable players, a team will still need eleven players to continue!
Page 13
1- They are not Kusatsu Hidari’s match…
2- Of course, Hatanoshou-sempai!
3- Sfx: Touched
4- Aah… but they could still advance to the semis…
5- Competition guide (book)
6- Or they might not.
7- Aah!
8- It’s Kusatsu Hidari!
9- It is that pointed hair
10- What!?
11- Hey, it’s true!
12- What are they doing here? Spying on us? Even though they are strong!!
13- Eh!
14- Next time we need to fight it out to see who is better, Nagahama…
15- That brat is looking down on us!!
16- Are you picking a fight!? // Bring it on, bastard!!
17- Sensei, you shouldn’t speak like this…
Page 14
1- Let us not be bother about this, second half begins!
2- Sfx: Peep
3- Sfx: Surprise
4- Aah! Speaking of which, when was it!?
5- Who are you?
6- Sfx: Impact
7- Note: The new football coach, Gusuku
8- But what is that Hikiyama guy’s religion? His football techniques are definitely not at high school level…

7- That is fast…
8- The second half only begins like not long ago!!
9- Sfx: Tremble Tremble
10- Ugh // He’s retiring! // Is it real
11- Shock
12- Rakuichi Nagahama got carried out of play just four minutes into the second half…
13- Damn!
14- Heh
15- You can only blame yourself for not playing frequently.
16- It shouldn’t have been like this…
17- A fellow who can only play one half!
18- Strike
19- He is only a player who can only play one half…
20- Are you all right?
21- Later,
22- Azuchi score another 3 goals by himself, Matsuri’s memorable freekick with the second year’s Seta (Pin head) and Antonio Carlos (Afro head) all scoring.
23- I did it, dad! Tomorrow watch me go all out in full force!!
24- I really take my hat off you…
25- Waa… Waa…
26- I’m so sorry…
27- Adding up with Youkaichi’s own goal, it helped Chikubushima Public High into a wide margin scoreline of 14-1 beyond perfection.
Page 19
1- Sfx: Waa...
2- …
3- Sfx: Waa…
4- Hohoho
5- In the end, we won big.
6- Besides everyone got a goal!!
7- The opponent is too weak!
8- They were powerless to counter attack!
9- What about it? I still scored an own goal by putting the ball into our net!
10- I was saying… Rakuichi…
11- Are you happy today?
12- Yeah…
Page 20
1- Then…
2- Scroll
3- Looks pretty glad…
4- Scroll
5- It’s great.
6- Aah, that’s right… Youkaichi. Did Matsuri-sempai return you the money for the motorbike?
7- Talking about this, I am very surprised, he returned the full amount the day before… // Not missing out even a cent
8- You got to be joking?
9- Is that true?
10- Sfx: Caw Caw
11- Isn’t that a large amount…

17- Heh
18- He’s popular
19- Heh
20- But this is so rare of you, what is it?
21- Sfx: Creak
Page 23
1- I wish to speak with me with regards to our football team matters.
2- Heh!
3- Surprise…
4- Matsuri-sempai is talking using the captain’s tone!?
5- Note: Although it looks unbelievable, but he is indeed the captain.
6- In the past, isn’t our team’s defence weak?
7- I don’t understand this!!
8- Sfx: Creak Creak
9- If it is to cast out Nagahama we don’t need to talk about that. That would mean that things wouldn’t look good for our side.
10- Since our attack strength will generally decrease overtime… If we are to win…
11- We will still need a high- leveled defender to lead everyone!
12- Do we have to provide mentorship from now…?
13- But our team doesn’t have that kind of talent…
14- Incorrect
15- Aah!
16- Don’t tell me…
17- You are thinking about approaching that guy?
Page 24

8- Eh!

3- It is the same guy that got cramps yesterday.
4- Sfx: Snigger
5- Is it your business?
6- Why did you appear in yesterday’s match?
7- Because I’m from the newspaper club! With my inquisitive personality, it is a must!!
