Your prayers to God when you are in trouble

You can't get closer to your dream

Entrance Ceremony
Excuse me, you're Jessie Gurtland, right?
Yes I am...
You are the real one after all.
The queen of the field who was the American national team's ace at age sixteen, and the top entry to the training school.
It's like a dream to be able to train together.
I'm happy to hear that, let's be friends for the half year until we graduate.
Although I won't hold back against you as a rival.
Of course!
W.. What is this?
This is the entrance ceremony, what are you wearing?
It's nothing but strangers, so I am scared.
You think you can become the Cosmo Beauty with an attitude like that?
Take it off already.
You're mean, Icchan.
Moron!
If you wear something like this, people will be making fun of you the whole half year.
But...
Aren't you embarrassed?
It's that girl.
The one rumored to have barely passed the entrance exam.
Hmm? So that girl is Akari Kanzaki?
Yeah, the daughter of the former Cosmo Beauty Tomoe Midou.
Is that true?
What?
Is it true she is Tomoe Midou's daughter?
Y.. Yes.
Akari Kanzaki.
The one who has Tomoe Midou's blood.
Tomoe Midou's...
Arrogance
AD 2034 there was a sudden change in the Earth's axis of rotation.
As a result a huge natural disasters ensued and approximately 99% of humanity was killed.
As a result of the shift in the axis the environment was destroyed, and humanity was forced to start over on its new path.
But humanity did not give up, and completely recovered.
And now that we have regained our civilization, we have settled all the planets of the solar system.
A victory for humanity with it's soul of guts and spirit.
Icchan, I can't take any more.
Hurray for humanity! Hurray for humanity!
Akari Kanzaki, out.
This concludes training.
You don't have enough spirit Akari.
You gotta do it with perseverance, spirit, guts!
Perseverance...
Spirit...
And guts?
They all mean the same.
There is no need to quibble about that.
But it's too bad we aren't allowed to leave during training. Isn't there a more lively place to go?
We're high school girls in the prime of our youth.
There is a wall.
I have good news for you all.
You should go see the Tomoe Midou memorial over there.
It's very fun.
No! You can't!
Again? Why is it that you are always against it when we want to go there?
Isn't it just a memorial to your great mother?
When I say we can't, I mean it!
It is only natural she would be against it, and do you know why?
It's because you will know all of Akari's embarrassing secrets.
Oh, really?
She has an incredible secret.
No! No!
I see. I see.
That's the only place I don't want to go. I don't want to say why, so don't ask. Please Icchan!
Hey Akari.
We'll leave you behind.
Listen to me.
Tomoe Midou, won the Great Athletic Meet at age sixteen.
She became the Earth-revitalization Cosmo Beauty.
After that she was undefeated until she retired at age eighteen.
There is the medal presented to her after her third straight victory's on Uranus. Ones for Mars and the moon too.
The legendary ultimate runner, the goddess of speed, an invincible rose of the field. She really is a person out of legend.
Mom.
She really was an incredible person.
And her daughter...
Even if you don't look at me like that I know what you want to say.
You probably want to say something like a griffin gave birth to a raccoon.
I'm not saying anything like that.
Yes, there is just a difference in your results.
I'm just an incompetent raccoon.
Don't get her depressed.
I just said the truth.
Don't get in that thing, it's annoying.
So where is the funny thing, Ling-Pha?
Icchan, let's go back. OK?
Ladies and girls, sorry to keep you waiting.
Not over there!
Ayla, grab hold of her.
Understood.
Let go of me. Please, Ayla.
Understood.
Hey, don't let her go.
Understood.
Let me go!
Under...
Don't let her go!
Let me go.
Don't let go.
Look carefully, this is Akari Kanzaki's secret.
No!
Tomoe Midou as a mother
By the way, at this time Tomoe was thirty-one, Akari was twelve.
Akari, you wet your bed even when you were twelve?
That was just three years ago.
My stomach is going to burst.
Well, what about now?
Of course I don't
Do you plan on trying to kill me with laughter?
You don't have to laugh so much.
Sorry... But at age twelve?
We need a souvenir.
Yes. Yes. Right there.
Icchan, you dummy!
That was a nice shot.
That's why I didn't want to come in here.
Laughing at me like that, Icchan is mean.
Ouch.
Film records of my mom?
I've never seen my mom running.
My mom was kind, and always smiled at me.
This is my mom?
How beautiful.
I'm sorry. I came in without asking.
Jessie.
Akari.
You can keep looking, I'll leave.
I can keep looking?
So her true daughter has to give me permission?
That's not what I meant, umm...
What?
Umm, I wonder if I did something wrong.
It seems somehow that you are angry at me.
Although you are good tempered around everybody else.
Not at all.
That's good. I was thinking it had to be something like that.
You know, this is the first time I have seen my mom running.
She's like a different person from when my mom was with me.
She was shining brightly, it surpassed me.
When compared to my mom, I am just like the leftovers.
Even if everybody says I am pathetic, there is no helping it.
You don't understand.
You.. You don't understand at all how great of an athlete your mother was.
Even though you have her blood, what are you doing here?
That hurts. It hurts, Jessie.
You let your ability go to waste, avoid effort, and don't even try to move forward. What are you doing here?
It hurts.
Akari, where are you?
Jessie.
Why was she in here?
What, you were in here?
Icchan.
Are you still crying? Sorry about laughing at you, so stop crying.
No, that's not it.
What's not it?
I was challenged to a race by Jessie.
What?
What should I do, Icchan?
Even if you ask me...
Jessie.
Akari Kanzaki.
If you don't understand, I will teach you with my own body.
Your very existence is arrogance.
Race against me.
And show me your true ability.
Why?
Because you have the blood of Tomoe Midou.
I don't understand.
You must accept.
After the training tomorrow is over, come to the track.
No...
Mom.
Shouldn't I have come here?
I don't know anymore if what you said was true.
It's a challenge!
A challenge!
The number one of our training group Jessie Gurtland and the number one incompetent Akari Kanzaki are going to race.
A challenge!
That isn't any challenge at all.
Akari has some pretty reckless ideas.
That is the catch.
It was Jessie who requested this match, I would keep my eye on what is going on between them.
Keep an eye on it!
And so as the promoter of this event, I Ling-Pha Wong can get you tickets cheap.
If you act now I will even throw in a box lunch.
They're great!
It sounds interesting.
Shall we go see how badly Akari loses?
I'll take one!
Alright, I have lots of tickets.
Just get in line.
Stop it.
I'm sorry everybody, I would like you to leave today's race alone.
This is personal. Yes, it is a personal challenge.
But you know, I have my position as a promoter...
My pride won't let me pull back a deal that I have already offered up.
Something this profitable doesn't come along so often.
Please, Ling-Pha.
I understand.
Everybody, I am calling off the ticket sales. Look forward to next time. Tsai Tien.
Thank you.
What power, I thought my hand would be crushed.
Jessie is scary.
So you were here. If you don't eat you won't have any energy.
Are you nervous?
I understand, you are going up against Jessie.
She is an opponent I can't even pass if I want to.
But you know, I think I will someday pass her.
Before our graduation test in two months for sure.
I always think, she is a human. A human the same as me.
Against another human, there is nothing you can't surpass.
Just try your best with perseverance, spirit, and guts.
So do your best. Show the best you that you can to Jessie.
Enough so that American's eye's pop out.
Come out, Akari.
Thank you, Icchan.
You were in the bathroom?
Yeah.
I'll try hard. I'll do what I can.
Yeah.
Did you wash your hands?
Ah.
Moron!
Are you warmed up?
I'm fine.
The event will be a 2000 meter race.
That's five times around this track, OK?
Yeah.
You know, this is the event that Tomoe Midou set her first world record in when she was fifteen.
My mom...
I want you to show me.
Your power.
Do your best, Akari.
On your mark.
Jessie is a human, the same as me.
I'm not scared of Jessie. Not scared.
I'm not scared.
Ready.
Just like Icchan told me, with perseverance, spirit, and guts, and then...
And then...
Go.
It can't be.
This can't be.
She's fast.
Jessie is serious.
She's getting away so fast.
I'll lose sight of her, even though I am trying hard. Even though I am trying.
Jessie is faster than my brother.
This is a total rout.
She has the same running form as Tomoe Midou.
In order to master that, she must have spent a lot of time.
She is stronger for the sweat she has shed. That is Jessie Gurtland.
Akari Kanzaki, you are hiding bottomless power.
I acknowledge that you have the blood of your great mother.
Tomoe Midou.
But no matter how big of wings you have, if you do not soar it is the same as not having them.
A bird that can not fly can only crawl about the earth.
Nobody will see a flower that does not bloom.
This pathetic you should never have appeared before me.
I can't see Jessie.
Jessie isn't anywhere.
Jessie is... Jessie is...
I'll show you the power of Jessie Gurtland.
A form that echoes Tomoe Midou.
Oh no..
A one lap lead.
No matter what the situation, this is crazy.
Was Akari really trying to run?
Akari was running as hard as she could. I can tell even from here.
Look at Jessie's time.
This is...
This is the same time as the campus record.
What kind of woman is she?
I can't believe there is somebody like that among us.
I complement you for running until the end.
You really are fast. I couldn't catch you at all.
Although I did try my best.
Tried your best?
I wonder how I could get that fast.
Hey, Jessie?
Your best? Your best? You say you tried your best?
You have no right to be here.
Get out.
Jessie... I.. I..
Why? I don't understand.
That hurts, don't be mad at me. There is no way I could beat you.
I am not my mom.
I can't become her.
Is it alright?
You always help her right away.
I want to cheer her up. I want to hold her hand.
But Akari came to the training ground to try to be the Cosmo Beauty.
She can't give up at just this. She can't!
You feel frustrated don't you Akari. You want to try harder don't you?
That feeling is most important.
Using this frustration as a spring, concentrate on tomorrow, in order to beat Jessie.
That's it. Stand up Akari.
Akari is crying.
She should cry. Cry it all out, and then run towards the future.
By passing this adversity you will become a true athlete.
Ichino.
What is it?
Akari started running.
Oh, she has started already. How great.
A space taxi came down.
She jumped right in.
It's flying away.
It seems we have lost one.
That moron. That moron!
She ran away!
