-ANF- Animanga Nucleus Fansubs
Starting my run in the middle of town, bright sunlight at my back,
As always, you tapped my shoulder
I'm so enthralled by you, yet for reasons unknown
Your arm won't be linked to mine.
I don't know when but my eyes were locked on you, and that's how it all began.
I won't let you go. I won't have any doubts. Crazy for you.
I want to shout that I love 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 love you. Let's be brave and take a step forward.
These burning feelings I want you to catch.

To be qualified to inter-high, Shohoku
in the fifth match of the preliminaries
Shohoku is faced with the second best team in the region, Shoyo.
The real showdown is about the start and the spirit of Sakuragi Hanamichi's spirit is burning.
Is this four-eyes really a high school student.
He is really tall, even Hanamichi look smaller next to him.
I got it!
Sakuragi-kun!
Jump violation.
White number 4.
But while Akagi and the others affected badly from the pressure of the match
Shoyo's giants dominated the game leading the score further and further.
One of the region's most powerful centers with Shohoku's Akagi and Ryonan's Uozumi,
Shoyo's Hanagata's
successful shots put Shohoku in a dangerous position.
If we said Akagi and Uozumi are strong centers,
then Hanagata is more of a soft center.
Akagi against Hanagata, this battle...
Shohoku's main support Akagi seems to be getting defeated by Hanagata.
This match might be a show for Shoyo.
#33 Rukawa`s Counterattack!
Go, go, Shoyo! Beat them, beat them, Shoyo!
Hanagata! Hanagata! ...
I will soon make them shout Hanamichi instead of Hanagata!
Hey, concentrate to the match, Sakuragi Hanamichi!
Ito!
I can't reach it!
Three point shot! Score is 11 to 0 now.
Go, go, Shoyo! Beat them, beat them, Shoyo!
Nice shot, Ito.
Yeah, so beautiful...
Damn.
That bastard...
That guy...
The game has gone on for 6 minutes and Shohoku still has 0.
This means Shoyo is really strong.
Shoyo is strong...
But Shohoku should be strong too.
They weren't this bad during practice with us.
That's true...
Also during our practice match
they didn't have ace guard Miyagi-san or junior high's MVP Mitsui-san
and they're already about the same level as us.
Also, after the practice game, Sakuragi-san showed great improvement.
According to this, Shohoku should be much superior now.
So strange...
I really don't know if that guy actually improved
But that Sakuragi...
That Sakuragi...
What's happened?!
Oh... do you need to go to the toilet?
It's no good to hold it.
Idiot!
Why did you do that?
Holding it too long is really not good for the body.
I will never forgive that Sakuragi.
Okay, let's stop them!
Yeah!
Let's get 1 point!
Yeah!
What's wrong with them? They look so tired.
Shoyo's height is giving everybody a lot of pressure.
Their morale and strength are really getting affected.
To defeat Shoyo's height, they need to move twice as much as usual
and their fatigue would greatly increase.
But... if they don't overcome this, we'll never get into the inter-high.
Akagi, everybody, do your best!
Shohoku fight! It's now that the game starts.
Defense! Defense! Defense! ...
Miyagi!
Alright!
I have to shoot it.
Mit-chi! Pass it to me! Pass!
Don't force it Mitsui, pass!
Mitsui-san, pass it to Hanamichi.
Pass! Pass! Pass! Pass!
Pass the ball to him, we'll get points another way!
Shut up all...
To make a comeback all I need to do is score four 3 point shots.
Hey! I told you to pass the ball, Mit-chi!
Mine...
No!
White, Shohoku's ball.
Good.
What were you looking at Sakuragi?
I listened to you and passed the ball.
That was so sudden.
Can't you say something before pass the ball?
Huh... newbie...
What did you say?
It's your fault, Sakuragi.
But Mitsui, that position is not good for a 3 pointer,
it's much better to pass the ball to us and let us attack.
Akagi, you go and defeat Hanagata before you go about teaching others.
Leave that four-eyes to me.
What do you mean, Rukawa!?
I will get more points then you today.
You better remember this...
Hey, what are you guys doing?
It's not the time to fight between us.
Why did they pick such a time to fight?
Rukawa...
They steal the ball! Shohoku is in trouble!
Nice steal! Go, Hasegawa-san! Fast break!
They're really taking advantage or their height,
but Shohoku easily let them block that..
Shohoku can't show their abilities
because they're playing against such a powerful team, right Taoka-san?
Idiot, who are you calling Taoka-san!
Sorry, I just got too into it.
Akagi lost his usual calmness...
If they continue on like this, Shohoku will never have a chance.
Alright!
It's him again!
It's not good if that four-eyes gets the ball.
Brother...
I'll stop him.
I won't allow that.
But...
That's a fake, you idiot!
I've won.
Rukawa...
Rukawa!
Got the ball!
Rukawa!
Alright!
Go Rukawa!
Three to one, everybody go help him!
Damn!
Rukawa, you bastard, stop showing off!
Rukawa, slow down, pass...
That bastard, he wants to come in by himself.
Don't look down on us, you freshman.
Hey, Rukawa, do you want to destroy this chance?
Pass! Pass! Pass!
Rukawa...
I'm going to beat you down!
What are you doing, Rukawa-kun?
www.animanganucleus.org
Let's play basketball guys!
You feel like the wind when you got the ball and go to the basket!
www.animanga.gen.tr
Let's go for it! It's cool to be with your brothers!
That guy is unbelievable.
Shohoku has got such a great player.
That number 11...
So this is Rukawa from Tomigaoka junior high.
Rukawa! Rukawa! L-O-V-E Rukawa!
So they're here too.
Rukawa Kaede's fans are like scarecrows of Shoyo's cheerleaders.
Right, Haruko-chan.
She's really...
Ru... Rukawa-kun...
As expected from Rukawa-kun!
You... you... you... you bastard!
All you're concerned with is showing off, Rukawa!
It's a good thing that the ball went in.
But you should've waited for us to back you up.
Genius Sakuragi showing off is something else.
But I can't forgive Rukawa for showing off!
Your actions are like stone, of course I won't pass the ball.
What a self centered bastard!
You lousy freshman!
Trying to teach me a lesson...
Who do you think you are!?
This year's first years has no respect at all!
Who's like a rock!
You're joking! I am more agile than you!
I'm so flexible that I can do gymnastics!
Look at my feet as they float by!
No matter who it is, I won't be scared!
Don't get mixed up with us.
Stupid...
What!? Who is the biggest idiot in the world!?
You are the one!
What are you saying!
What are you doing? They're coming...
Defense, defense!
Stop joking around.
Just watch me, Rukawa.
That idiot Rukawa
I'll let you know what it means to be a genius.
Come on, Shoyo!
What?
It's Hanagata-san again.
Stop him!
Finally! That's Akagi's flying block!
Nice block, Akagi-senpai!
One more!
That's the next Akagi-senpai's flying block!
Great! This time it's Sakuragi-san's super block!
Stole it!
Fast, run faster!
How was that, Rukawa?
You do it by mistake.
Sakuragi-kun!
Our tallest members, Hanagata-san and Takano-san, were blocked.
I didn't see anything like that.
Akagi and that red headed weird guy are really good.
Shohoku's number 10 has the strength and jumping power,
he might be even better than Akagi.
Let's go!
Yeah!
Akagi...
Rukawa, do you know the true powers of a genius now?
I have to get more points than you.
Damn, how can I lose to such a weird guy!
Ryo-chin, pass!
Okay.
I got the ball...
Hanamichi actually got the ball.
You just wait, Shoyo!
This is the true genius' first shot!
Commoners... shot...
Go in...
Damn!
Stupid...
used too much power...
Klutz...
The ball is mine!
He did it!
That's good, Rukawa!
Nice tip.
Rukawa! Rukawa! Love-Love-Love me Rukawa!
Rukawa-kun is really good.
Again...
This... this genius actually made such a mistake.
Stupid, you had a good chance, just stay calm.
He wasted my pass...
You actually gave that damn Rukawa a chance to show off, you idiot.
True, true...
Rukawa, don't think you are all that!
That point was my gift to you!
Stop it!
Idiot...
Hey Hanamichi, was that a pass...
to Rukawa?
Shut up. Damn...
But that's no good.
The score difference is growing.
I must do something, I can't lose to that guy!
Hey Hanamichi, don't try to show off.
Yes...
Come on everybody.
Yeah!
One more time, stop them!
Okay!
Defense! Defense! Defense!
Shoyo, Shoyo, Shoyo!
Looks like Shohoku is finally returning back to normal.
Yes, match actually starts now.
But, the one who stopped Shoyo's one sided play was Rukawa.
During the practice game with us
he stopped Uozumi and Sendoh’s attacks.
He's really a super rookie.
No other freshman has that much influence in a game.
I have a feeling that he'll become a basketball star.
Rukawa-kun is too scary.
I will never have his potential.
I will never become like Rukawa-kun, not in this life time.
Being 165 cm tall...
Hey, hey, look at that number 7. He's really small compared to the Shoyo's giants.
You are talking about Shohoku's number 7, right?
It's really hard on him having to defend number 9.
Shohoku really should change number 7 with number 5.
Miyagi-san...
I'm all warmed up after a bit of sweat.
Starting now, I'll show them what I've got.
Come on, come on!
Over here, Shoyo!
Rukawa's performance ignited the whole team
Shohoku regain their agility.
and their morale is increasing.
Ryota's getting all fired up playing against the giants of Shoyo...
I'm all alone in the big city,
thrown away like an empty can.
If love is love until we know everything about each other,
then let's sleep forever.
Until the world come to an end, we won't be apart.
I wished it for the countless nights.
Why does the past destroys
even the worn-out heart that shines?
Melancholically feeling thoughts... on this tragedy night.
