You're into that?
Not me! You gotta do this to get rhythm.
You didn't bring us here for fun?
Who said anything about fun!
OK, here goes. Suzuki and Sato up first!
What!
What is this, dammit!
Ota and Kanazawa, go!
Hey, Ota's not bad.
Use it all.
The whole 5,000?
Got a problem! It's only synchro if you guys can synch.
Keep it up 'til you're all in synch, got it?
Dump 'em... Serves 'em right...
Dump 'em...
Serves 'em right with gravy on top...
In its lonely tank
My dolphin
Sobs its eyes out
Crying wlth a sad voice
What? Hey?
What is this?
What?
For real? I can't believe it.
Give me a break!
Dammit.
Excuse me, excuse me.
Bravo...
Bravo!
I think we're really starting to get the hang of this whole thing.
Thank you so much!
Sea Otter, Nautilus Roll, raised leg!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Ouch, ouch.
What the hell?
Oops, wrong species.
Got a problem?
You sure it'll work?
Worth a try. We can steal their act.
Oh, I get it.
Let's feed 'em.
What?
Oh, no!
Resuscitate!
Resuscitate! You gotta. Mouth-to-mouth!
What? Where?
There's a hole in its head.
The mouth, the mouth!
It's there!
I know!
What a relief.
How'd you find me?
You stopped showing up, I got your number, called your house.
They said you were camped out at Sato's place, and they told me...
Why didn't you tell me?
What? Oh, um, it's...
Tell you what?
What? That you were here.
Oh, that...
This isn't what I meant to...
I'm not very good at this stuff.
Oh, I'll be waitressing at the cafe during the Sakuragi Fest.
Why don't you come?
Sure, I will. I promise.
Oh, good.
For a late bloomer you're doing good.
It's not like that.
Oh, I'm sure it is.
Hey, don't, ouch!
How did you land that babe! You nerd.
Oh, ouch, ouch!
My afro's natural...zzz...
Ouch, ouch.
What's it gonna be, Suzuki? Gonna cheat on your girl?
You mean Saotome's...?
God, you idiot. Isn't it obvious?
"I'm sorry... I like you, but not like that..."
"Then like what?"
"I like you, but not enough to love you."
"All this time, you knew how I felt..."
"Why didn't you tell me sooner! You were just stringing me along!"
"Idiot! Chicken! Wimp!"
Yo, Suzuki!
I'll fill you in later.
Shoot, what a bore.
When two guys fall in love, um, then what happens?
Hey, what's up! Love trouble?
The thing is... Saotome's...
Yeah, yeah.
In love with you.
What?
He doesn't need to know how you feel.
But he wants you to know.
And he asked me to tell you...
You haven't realized, but he's been watching you, ever since kindergarten...
Watching, watching...
You gotta hold his hands! Do it right!
Um... Thank you very much.
Where's that coming from?
School starts tomorrow,
Oh, I see, God, what a relief. You guys can figure out the rest.
Should be some performance,
Um... maybe you could... Come...
Is anyone drowning here?
What? You nuts?
What? Those people notified us.
Scoop, scoop! Corpses, corpses! Scoop, scoop! Corpses, corpses!
This amateur video was shot by a tourist family who
thought the swimmers were drowning. An ambulance raced to the scene...
To discover a synchronized swim rehearsal.
While that's not newsworthy in and of itself,
we discovered the swimmers are students at a boys school.
Oh, gosh, sorry. We weren't drowning.
We're just rehearsing for the Tadano Festival.
Actually, we should be practicing in a real pool, not an ocean.
No, we're dead serious, we have a whole routine ready to go.
Shit! When'd they get their act together...
We usually think of synchronized
swimming as a women's sport,
but personally, I can't wait to see their act.
Shit! She can't wait to see them perform!
Damn! Maybe it's not so bad after all.
How about you?
No, I think I'll pass...
Did you see those guys on TV?
Yeah.
Go, Synchronites!
This is bad. Everybody knows.
We'll never manage to hijack that pool.
Not exactly "never". I calculated the odds last...
I knew we shouldn't have done...
You got it wrong.
Hey! Over here!
You 5 from the swim team! Come to the faculty office.
What exactly did you guys have in mind, huh?
You know the pool is off limits!
What?
Yes...
Everybody knows. It's too late to bluff.
...that we'd do it anyway.
I figured as much. That's worse!
Since you intend to do it, you'd better get permission!
Huh?
Another one.
Hello, Tadano High.
Oh, yeah, synchro. Yes, they will, they will.
That's the Tadano High Festival.
Yes, in our pool. Yes, that's right.
Over the weekend. Synchro's set for Saturday.
Can't we be in it too?
Looked great on TV.
Please! Let us in.
What do you say?
A-n-d, go.
Go, go, go, go.
Any other inspirations?
Listen, what if we each do what we're good at.
Good at what?
Like I do karate. Sakamoto's gymnastics.
Right! Like dive in from a gymnastics move.
What about us, the track team?
Sprint super fast and run over water.
No way, idiot!
Some lovey-dovey, too.
A human pyramid at the end.
What's that?
Ready, set...
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
No! You got it all wrong! Watch me!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Start.
Just wait, wait. Back to your starting positions.
Um, hold on here.
Diameter - 12 meters, speed - 1.5 meters per second.
To spin off into 5 sub-circles... 12 pi / 1.5 = 8 pi seconds, right...
So the angle speed is 2 pi / 8 pi =
2.5 radian per second...
OK, I got it. Adjust starting positions.
Ready, go.
Tadano Fest - Synchronized Swim featuring the WATERBOYS!
Here, here, they're fresh, hot! Eat them and work hard!
Thank you!
We'll come watch.
Young men are so adorable!
Water Ballerinas!
Better shave your legs!
Huh? Hey! What's this thing out front?
Oh, some Sakuragi girls put it up.
Oh, I'll tape it over here. Gotta see the merchandise to move it.
Hey, it's the same day...
You're kidding!
It's hard enough to draw a crowd, now none of the girls will show.
Probably not. Guess that's your loss.
Tomorrow's finally the Festival.
I'm ashamed to say, I've never worked as hard as this
in 3 years of high school.
So there's absolutely no question it'll be a smash hit!
Tell it like it is! Right on!
And why am I making this speech instead of Suzuki?
Because he has stage fright and gets tongue-tied... but c'mon!
Right on! Say something!
Let's see, um...
Take it easy today so you're ready tomorrow.
That's it?
Let's see...
We've only got 6 more months of high school left.
We have to cram for college exams,
so if we don't do it now, we never will.
So...
Let's see...
Let's go for it!
Can you believe our advisor
gave us all matching suits and goggles!
Spin around and go!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Tadano High Festival
See you tomorrow.
Right!
Move away from the campfire.
Oh, I can't make it to your Festival tomorrow, sorry.
Yeah, I know, we have them on the same day, too bad.
Hey, it's close by, maybe I'll sneak over.
Oh, no! Don't bother.
No, I mean I think
I'll be way too busy to see you... yeah.
Oh...
- Um... - Um...
What? What?
No, um, it's...
At Tadano Fest, I...
Thing is,
Did you know I'm...
Are those fire trucks?
It's a fire.
A fire?
Look, isn't that over near Tadano High?
Where's that?
Look, it's really burning.
Here come the fire trucks.
Hey! What? Sorry, I gotta...
What? Hey... wait...
Don't come!
It's dangerous! OK?
Hey, wait!
Burning, burning, fire, fire!!
I'm deeply sorry for this. I will punish the students.
Be careful.
I'm sorry. You guys apologize, too.
They say it spread from the kids' fireworks.
They're lucky it's not worse.
Started their campfire a little early.
My point exactly.
Hey.
We've got to try filling it up.
All those rehearsals.
Um...
UM...
Um... are you the head of synchro?
Um, yeah...
I'm chairperson of the Sakuragi Girls High Festival Committee.
This is my deputy chairperson, and our secretary.
Uh huh.
We know that you had planned to perform in your pool.
That's what we'd heard. But because of yesterday's poo...
I mean, fire, that your pool isn't full enough.
We discussed this with our principal,
who said, just this once, you can use ours.
Um... what do you think?
Is our pool good enough?
Go for it!
Get a move on it! We're moving!
There are no real locker rooms for you,
so please meet in the bicycle lot behind the pool!
Are you listening!
This is a special announcement. There will be
a change of venue for today's Synchronized Swim program.
It has moved to Sakuragi Girls High.
Where the hell is that?
I don't know.
Where is it!
This is ruining my coiffure!
We're so deeply grateful.
I myself am on my way there now.
Follow me!
Hey! Ms. Sakuma!
I've heard everything! I'll see you there! Go for it!
Hey, they're here!
Change, please. 500 yen.
500 yen coming up. Thank you.
Hello.
500 yen please.
Hey, don't!
Hey, what is that! You can't use that!
It's a Platinum Ticket, advance sale.
Move!
Wait, please!
Tear the ticket! Move!
Synchro! Synchro!
It's turned into a really big deal...
It's a 50 meter pool, man.
It's so big!
Hey, it's that girl. She's a student here.
I quit.
What! Too late for that.
Bet you never told her about synchro.
Actually, you're ashamed of synchro, aren't you!
It's too late to stop now!
Hey, it's starting!
Waterboys!
Cute!
What are you doin'?
If you don't do it,
I'll take over...
Just kidding.
When I asked you at the aquarium, did you intend to teach us?
Never.
I knew it.
But now, I really want to see the performance.
So you make a fool outta yourself. Better than feeling worthless all your life.
How are they doin'?
Unbelievable.
What? Why?
Oh, no!
Don't, Saotome!
That feel-good sting
Of young hearts on fire.
You sparkle for no reason.
And you know you're in love.
Some day soon.
And only to you.
I have to confess.
Everything I feel.
To get a little stronger.
I'm rowing away.
In my broken boat.
I'll have you, instead.
Please don't, I'm serious.
Are you ready!?
Look at you!
What? My suit!
Oh!
He's in trouble.
I'll just have to...
Suzuki!
That hurt. Huh?
Good lookin'! Lookin' good!
Suzuki, you're cool!
Not so bad yourself. Will you look at that.
Thank you!
