-ANF- Animanga Nucleus Fansubs Fuma, zakuro, Berserk
The bright sun shines on my back, in this town I run through.
And once again I feel a tap on my shoulder.
You're the one I really like. There is no reason.
There's no way you'll be in my arms.
I don't know when but my eyes were locked on you, and that's how it all began.
I won't let go, I won't change my mind, 'cause I'm Crazy for You.
I want to shout that I like you, let's try to change tomorrow.
I want to put an end to the times I couldn't speak.
I want to shout that I like you and step forward with confidence.
These burning feelings, I want you to catch.
Akagi's friend and rival, and president of the judo club, Aota,
Has his eyes on Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Aota, who wanted Sakuragi to join the judo club no matter what,
Used Haruko's pictures as a lure.
Come on, Sakuragi Hanamichi, if you join the judo club,
I'll give you all these pictures. How about it?
What is this?
This looks bad, Akagi.
Sakuragi is that kind of person.
Slam Dunk #9 I'm Going to Play Basketball!
Well, well, well, well, well?
He's dancing at the pictures. This looks really bad.
I really don't want to give up these pictures of Haruko-chan from Elementary to Junior High.
I really don't want to give them up.
Sakuragi, I'm sure you understand this feeling.
We're both secretly in love with Haruko-chan.
Yes, I understand, I understand.
Ahh, the two of them are about to be united.
That liar.
I spent five years gathering these pictures. This feeling.
I'm sure you understand, Sakuragi.
Yes, yes. I understand. I understand.
That's exactly why I need you!
So, join the judo club, Sakuragi!
I don't want to.
What?
Sakuragi...
A miracle...
Wait, then you don't want these pictures?
I want them!
I thought so, that means you've agreed to join to judo club?
I don't want to.
Oh, I believe in you Sakuragi!
What?
Then you don't want these pictures of Haruko-chan?
I want them!
That's what I thought. Then you're willing to join the judo club?
I don't want to.
What?
Then you don't want these pictures?
I want them!
Why you, I, Aota, am not going to take this kind of crap!
Hmph, fine, I'll use my own abilities to take it.
I won't join the judo club, but I want the pictures.
Hahaha, that Aota didn't anticipate Sakuragi's personality.
Sakuragi is not someone who'll listen to such an underhanded person.
He's just an extremely stubborn guy.
Huh? You think so, too?
He's still a kid too.
But this time, it's the other side's fault.
By your own abilities?
Hmph, you're the first person other than Akagi who's dared to speak to me this way.
That gorilla.
Why you, so you know that gorilla also, judo man.
Hmph, know him?
We were playmates since elementary school.
But I won't ever forget that event, in 5th grade.
I've joined the official judo league, and in addition, I won every match.
At the time, I loved judo extremely.
That's when I said to him...
Hey, Akagi, why don't you join the judo club as well?
I'm sure you'll be as strong as I am.
Then you'll love judo as well, how about it?
The reason I said that was because I wanted to share my happiness with him.
I did it completely out of kindness, out of friendship.
But do you know how that guy answered me!?
No way, it looks bad.
Who does he think he is!?
Stomping a cute young boy's kindness.
Don't you think so, Sakuragi?
No, you are too...
He hurt my feelings on purpose!
From then on, a rift developed between us.
It's all that guy's fault!
Do you remember?
He still remembers that thing?!
Wait a minute, that gorilla is even crueler to me.
Is that so? How does he treat you?
Last time, I dunked the ball on that gorilla's head, and he almost killed me!
I think anyone would have been mad at that.
I'm not talking about things like that.
What!? But I didn't do it on purpose!
He almost caused me to suffocate, you know!
Wait a minute, there's more.
That guy also left me other painful memories.
I'll never forget those things either. In the 6th grade...
We had to get our heights measured one day.
At that time, we were already very tall.
We also competing in height and weight.
Wow, you're so tall!
Akagi-kun, you're 173 cm.
But it's okay if it was just that.
Aota is the smallest guy in the class.
No wonder, it's because you're doing judo.
You're fated to have short legs.
How could there be such a unlikeable child.
As if he didn't say such things, he would die.
You're fated to have short legs...
What a fatal blow.
And to make it worse, my short legs aren't even caused by judo.
I was born this way.
Don't you think he's cruel, Sakuragi!?
I think so too.
Did you really say that? That was too mean.
Did I say that?
Anyway, it's at that time, the rift between us became clearer and clearer.
It's all his fault.
That's right! And that stupid gorilla always makes me practice the basics.
He really looks down on me.
Of course.
Listen Sakuragi,
Right now the biggest problem is that he's Haruko-chan's brother.
Why?
WHY?
Why is a coarse guy like that is Haruko-chan's big brother!?
How can there be such an unlikely brother and sister in this world? They don't match at all!
That's exactly right!
Why you...
Akagi, calm down. He didn't mean it... Probably...
So how about it, want to join forces, Sakuragi?
Both of us have the same goal, and that's to defeat Akagi!
Right!
Good, then just put your fingerprint here.
Okay.
What are you doing!?
Why you, putting other people's name on there like that.
That's low.
Sakuragi, don't you want these pictures?
I want them.
Right, then join the judo club.
I don't want to.
Hmph. We're back to where we started again.
That's why I said I'd use my own abilities to get them, didn't I?
I don't like hassles.
After all that, we still couldn't come to an agreement.
We already agreed for a long time!
But you're the one I've got my eyes on.
I won't run or hide,
So come on, Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Hi.
Hi guys, the first part of Slam Dunk was fun, wasn't it?
Basketball is great, let's play together.
Thanks for waiting, the second part of Slam Dunk will start in a minute.
Let's get together in front of TV.
Sakuragi!
Oh! Isn't that Sakuragi?
The Sakuragi who did this to us?
All right, Aota-san! He's getting revenge for us, right?
That's incredible, the one arm throw. That's Aota-san!
Yeah, take that, Sakuragi!
Be quiet.
So... sorry...
Ouch...
I really did it, I really threw him.
I couldn't get a hold on him, what was that killing intensity just now?
What a terrifying intensity...
A killing intensity, like that of wild animals.
On instinct, on instinct, I threw him.
Why you punk! How dared you use judo techniques!? Fine!
You deserved that, Sakuragi.
Hey Akagi, he's been tossed. Let's go stop them.
If he get hurt...
Why you...
Okay, I'll try one more time to make sure.
Maybe this guy is tougher than I anticipated.
Here I go, Sakuragi!
Judo is the determine how strong your opponent is in the instant you grab him.
What?
Come on!
Aota-san!
Oh, just like us...
Damn, Sakuragi, you...
That was low, Sakuragi!
Can't you even use judo techniques to fight?
Banging peoples heads like that is against the rules!
What are they talking about, Sakuragi just an amateur.
These judo club members are talking nonsense.
Got it.
These are it. All these Haruko-sans that I don't know.
Now that I have these, I don't need you guys anymore.
Good bye.
Say hi to that Judo guy for me.
Hold it right there!
Way to go, Aota-san.
The cross-body arm lock technique!
Come on, come on, Sakuragi.
The judo club also has these types of techniques.
You want to join the judo club more and more now, right?
Hahahaha!
I think more unlikely to join is more accurate.
Come on, join the judo club.
No!
Well, well...
Go for it.
Today we're going to do our best and have a really good practice.
That's... what are they doing?
What are you two doing here? Spying on the judo club?
Do you guys really have such an odd habit?
Idiot.
It doesn't look good.
Ouch... Let go!
What's that kid doing!? Good grief!
Forget the basketball club and join the judo club, Sakuragi.
No!
Aota said Sakuragi is one of the rare talents that appear in a hundred years in judo.
Then that's not good!
We have to hurry up and stop it, Kogure-senpai!
That's right! If we don't hurry up and stop it, his arm will be broken.
No, no, no... I can't do it. It's impossible for me to stop these two.
Akagi.
You're the only one who stands a chance against them.
You're the only one that can stop them.
Akagi-senpai...
Don't worry.
Aota only wants Sakuragi to join the judo club,
So, he won't break his arm.
But... what if Sakuragi joins the judo club, then what?
He's just started to look a little like a basketball player after all that hard work.
That depends on Sakuragi.
I don't think he'll give up basketball.
Heh... to be able to stand it for so long... Sakuragi, I'm impressed.
Gorilla speial technique, suffocation hold.
Give me Haruko-san's pictures, you judo guy!
Such arm strenght... you really should join the judo club.
Using judo again... you bastard...
Fine, this time I'm really pissed off!
I'm very excited, Sakuragi.
If you devote yourself to training, then you'll become number 2 in our judo club very fast.
Next year, you'll be black belt.
Give me those pictures!
You haven't heard a word I've said, have you?
If you're willing to quit the basketball club and join the judo club, then I'll give you these pictures.
Come on, let's try it again.
He... he threw him...!?
Give me those pictures.
What do you think? Judo's pretty interesting, isn't it Sakuragi?
Sakuragi, you joined the basketball club to get Haruko-chan's attention, didn't you?
However, even if you keep playing basketball,
Due to your nature, you won't be able to play for too long.
And if she finds out that you aren't playing basketball because you like it,
Haruko-chan won't be happy either.
So, join the judo club, Sakuragi.
And then aim for the National Championships.
I don't want to.
Don't be stubborn, Sakuragi!
I'm going to play basketball.
What?
Why?
Because I'm a basketball player.
Sakuragi!
Good going, Sakuragi Hanamichi!
Thank goodness!
Thank goodness, right Akagi?
Akagi-senpai.
How boring.
What a waste of my time...
Come on, we've got practice. It's almost time for the match.
Yes!
Oh it hurts... Why that judo guy... What did he do...
Oh no! I forgot to ask him what his relationship with Haruko-san is!
He looked so happy when she called him Tat-chan.
Forget it. Such a weird looking guy like him will get dumped eventually.
Just wait and see, judo guy. I'll get those pictures sooner or later.
Ahh... It's the real Haruko-san!
She's much better in person, all right!
Haruko-san!
You're late, Sakuragi.
Wait a minute, Gorilla... Ouch!
Big brother!
Okay, let's start practicing!
Yes!
Shohoku...
Go for it!
Yeah!
Come on!
One, two, one, two...
Haruko's vision.
Dash!
What's the matter with the gorilla today? He seems very excited.
I wonder if something good happened?
I'm going to play basketball.
Because I'm an basketball player.
Last one!
Okay!
Sakuragi Hanamichi would never have dreamed that the one who caused Akagi to be excited is none other than himself.
I see only you in my eyes...
... since the day we met.
As long as you're beside me,
I don't need anythin else.
Dream's high tension.
Looking at your happy face...
I decided not to use make-up anymore.
I'm always carrying a pager everywhere I go, so you can find me at anytime.
I know a lot more about cars.
And I'll work on my cooking some more.
But I'll be with you every night for the rest of my life.
I see only you in my eyes.
I'm waiting alone in our room.
Your smile is like a rose colored lock.
Charge! The girl who likes to dream but has no dreams!
