-ANF- Animanga Nucleus Fansubs
Bad news comes piercing through
this throbbing heartbeat that's out of my control.
The breathing of the undisturbed city...
Only the curiosity in my heart disturbs the quiet.
Embracing the dream that will absolutely not be manipulated
by anyone, I'll strike at tomorrow.
Surpassing the flow of time,
I want to live, feeling the wind.
Set me free. It's still too soon
for me to reach the eternal sleep
With a look in my eyes the color of red heat
even to the point I'm worn out, I will make my way through!
[Immersed in a training camp to complete 20.000 shots,]
[with coaching from coach Anzai]
[and support from Haruko, Yohei and everyone,]
[his skill is gradually improving.]
[On the other hand, the Shohoku team is in Shizuoka]
[taking it hard in a practice game against the quarter finalists, Josei High.]
I'm sure Sakuragi is practicing hard right now.
Think about it. What would he say if we lost?
I knew you guys couldn't do anything without this genius.
[Today, Shohoku manages to win over Jousei by one point.]
We dit it!
Slam Dunk #95 Hanamichi's Hottest Day
Alright. Let's wrap up the morning session.
Are you alright, Sakuragi-kun?
You needn't worry, Haruko-chan.
But...
Finally, time for a meal.
I'll be having Katsu-don, ten-don and gyu-don
Several miso soups and curry udon.
I'll have them all.
See, as I said.
Sakuragi is immortal so long as he has food.
Oh, by the way, I got a call from my brother last night.
It was by one point, but they won against Jousei.
Wow. A win against a top ranking team of the Shizuoka district.
That's amazing!
It must be because Hanamichi wasn't there.
They're on a roll and they hope to win today's game as well!
Their training camp seems to be improving their skills too.
Also, Rukawa-kun is said to be in top shape and has been very lively.
In addition to his confidence, Rukawa is also boosting his stamina.
It's so like him to do well.
Yes, yes.
Damn it, that cunning fox.
I was counting on him to wear out like this.
Kon- Onomatopoeia for a fox cry.
Kon...
Damn, damn, damn. I can't lose to Rukawa.
Before the meal, a power training exercise!
What.. what happened, Hanamichi?
Out of the way! Move! Move!
Hey! We are training here-
Shut up!
What do you think you are doing?
Huh? You want a go at it?
What?
Stop it!
That's it, you guys! Unforgivable!
That's Sakuragi of the basketball team.
Come here you!
What's up with you!?
What is he up to?
Seems like he's letting out steam from his stress.
That Hanamichi.
But it looks like fun. Go for it, Hanamichi!
Go get him!
Stop right here!
I'll beat you down!
Sakuragi-kun.
Shizuoka prefecture, Jousei High
Rukawa!
We will steal it.
What?
Fast break!
I intend to repay yesterday's favor, Akagi.
We will win today's game!
Alright!
We're just getting started, Mikoshiba.
What's wrong? Already giving up?
There's still 20 minutes before the next break.
Wha... what is it?
Don't glare at us like that. We're doing it for your own good.
He should have used up all of his stamina by now, so he should be fatigued.
So Hanamichi is mortal after all.
It cannot be helped. Shall we take a break?
Yeah, let's.
I can't even lift my arms.
Right now our team would be battling hard against the Jousei High.
I wonder if they could win again today?
She's imagining something. Could it be about that cunning fox-man?
What are you guys doing? Get up! Break's over!
What is it now?
You are the one who insisted on a break!
I can't remember that!
Hey, let's get to it!
I can't keep on entertaining your side-hobby.
Hobby?
At the peak of fatigue, remember the rhythm.
Wow. So he is invincible.
Alright!
That's the way, Hanamichi!
A hobby. Perhaps it is.
Good, good.
One more!
I can see him grow from one day to the next.
An irreplaceable enjoyment to watch.
Great!
It's the last 5 shots of the day, Hanamichi.
Come on, what's wrong?
Damn... damn it!
Fight, Sakuragi-kun!
Last one!
Make it good, this last one, Hanamichi.
I'll get this in.
Alright!
Okay! That was good.
Nice shot.
That wraps it all up!
You put in a good effort again today, Sakuragi-kun.
So so!
Right, now there's only the basic workout to do, Hanamichi.
For real!?
Hanamichi!
Hey!
Pull it together, Hanamichi!
Sakuragi-kun!
Hanamichi, what's wrong with you?
We've only completed half of the 20,000 shots.
Sakuragi-kun!
After training, let's go to the festival.
Huh?
Sakuragi-kun, you've been putting in quite a bit,
so I thought a change would be good for you.
Don't you think? Let's go.
Could... could this be?
Haruko-san is asking me on a date,
of sort?
Basic workout, or whatever, bring it on!
He's already recovered, that king of simpletons.
Ten takoyaki!
One fluff candy.
Four sour candies.
I wonder if Haruko-san will be coming in yukata.
Yukata: A lighter version of kimono
She would be perfect in one.
Haruko-san!
What? Why is it Gori's face?
Maybe I'm overworked.
Sakuragi-kun!
I'm over here!
Haruko-san!
Thank god, it's the proper Haruko-san.
Eh?
No, it's nothing.
Oh, I thought you'd like these, Haruko-san.
There's so much.
Sakuragi-kun, you didn't spent all of your pocket money, did you?
No problem! This is absolutely nothing!
Haruko!
Sorry to keep you waiting.
What are you guys doing here?
I invited them. Was that all right?
Well,
not really.
I also invited Yohei-kun and his friends.
But they seemed to have a prior engagement.
I see.
That's because I seriously insisted on them not coming.
Sour candies.
I was thinking about getting some.
And takoyaki looks tasty too.
Don't be stupid! These are for Haruko-san.
It's okay if we have some, right Haruko?
Sure.
See. There's no problem then, Sakuragi-kun.
Be quiet!
Rather than give it to you two, I'll have them.
Sa... Sakuragi-kun...
What a savage.
I knew it would be dangerous for Haruko to be alone with him.
You're right.
Haruko is so dense. We have to protect her.
You spoilers.

One out of every five junior high students plays basketball,
didn't you know that?

It's great to pull of basketball techniques, one after the other like Hanamichi.
That's odd. They were here a moment ago.
Sakuragi-kun must have kidnapped her.
They shouldn't be too far. Let's search.
Right.
Haruko-san, quickly. Over here.
But...
Don't be concerned about those two.
They're probably enjoying themselves.
Great. This plan is going smoothly.
Finally I'm alone with Haruko-san... huh?
Huh? Haruko-san?
Don't cry anymore, please?
Haruko-san!
Ah, Sakuragi-kun.
What happened here, Haruko-san?
This little girl wasn't able to scoop any goldfish.
Stop crying now. That's why I didn't want to bring you.
This is a problem.
I'm really bad at scooping.
Leave it to this Sakuragi please.
Sakuragi-kun, are you an expert at this?
Since I am a genius...
Pops, give me one.
Right-o.
Alright, which one should I start with?
Sakuragi-kun!
You got it!
Damn it, it's your fault!
You are going to get it.
Idiot.
I definitely won't forgive you!
Pops, one more.
Thanks for the business.
Another one!
Right-o.
Good, good, good... Ah!
That was so close.
Damn it...
One more, I say, one more!
Thanks again. Thanks.
Shoot, I've no money left.
Give me one, I'll definitely pay you back.
I can't give you by loan.
Loan, I say, loan.
You bastard, how's that?
I'm not going to lose you, damn it.
Sakuragi-kun!
Idiot.
Damn it, you won't beat me!
Please stop, Sakuragi-kun.
Young sir, no more.
I'll give you any one you like!
I'm glad for you.
You should take good care of it.
Yes.
I am really a genius.
Big brother...
Eh?
Have this. For the goldfish.
T... thank you...
Big brother, sister,
thank you very much.
Good bye.
Be careful.
You'll surprise the goldfish.
Here, hold on to my hands.
Yes.
I've told you before, you're careless.
See? You grazed yourself.
Be a good girl and return home.
I'm fine. I want to play more.
Brother!
There!
Great!
You did it, brother!
My brother was passionate in basketball since back then.
As much as I was jealous,
it made me happy watching him get better.
Even after I started middle school.
And now, his team has come 2nd in the Kanagawa prefecture and going to the inter-high.
My brother is really something.
I'm glad... that I was able to support him all this time.
You're right.
Gori is the happiest man alive.
And this Sakuragi as well,
finally alone with Haruko-san.
And now, I don't just have my brother,
I also have fun watching you, Sakuragi-kun.
Th-this, Sakuragi?
I think Yohei-kun and the others would feel the same way.
That's why they've helped us along.
No way. They're here to make fun of us.
That's not true.
Do you think?
This is my only chance.
Sakuragi Hanamichi's best chance.
And now, to confess my love.
Ha... Haruko-san.
To tell you the truth...
I... I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Sakuragi-kun.
"I... I'm sorry."
So, is this how it is?
So, this is how it is!
Sa... Sakuragi-kun!
Did I hit him too hard?
I've been rejected by Haruko-san!
Haruko-san would rather be with that cunning fox-man.
Damn it!
Wasn't that Sakuragi-kun?
Sakuragi-kun!
Oh, Haruko!
Did Sakuragi-kun...?
This is way too much.
She didn't have to slap me.
This shouldn't be.
See, there's even blood.
Huh?
A mosquito?
I see...
I was being bitten by a mosquito.
Shoot! It was my misunderstanding!
Haruko-san!
Just a bit, okay? Why don't you hang with us?
No, thank you.
Don't be so cold.
Let's be intimate.
Wha... what!?
Who the hell are you?
The defender of justice, has arrived!
Sakuragi-kun...
Sakuragi?
I didn't expect this mask to come in handy.
Don't do it, Sakuragi-kun.
We can't afford to be involved in an accident.
This, this... they won't identify me.
But...
Are you making fun of us?
Don't underestimate us!
Get him!
Hold it right here!
The defender of justice team has arrived!
What the hell are these guys?
We're taking up this fight from here.
Prepare for battle!
Stop fooling around.
Don't take us lightly.
Thanks there.
You are a lowlife to pick on young girls!
Bastard!
Away with the fiends!
Battle completed!
And so peace has returned to this Earth.
Just kidding!
So it was Yohei-kun and the others.
Why the hell did you come for, you guys?
You can't talk. You swindled all of our pocket money.
And decided to have fun yourself.
That just won't be allowed.
That's right. It's more fun with all of us together.
Isn't it much better?
Right, Sakuragi-kun?
Do you think?
You spoiling klutzes.
We also have presents from the coach.
Let's have fun, yeah!
Did Anzai-sensei really...?
That's great!
Anzai-sensei sure comes around.
But these klutzes shouldn't have come around.
Wow. That was big.
It's beautiful.
It's great!
Tamaya! (One of the biggest fireworks producers in Japan)
Shut up! Crying out like little kiddies.
Those damn spoilers.
Sakuragi-kun, there's a mosquito again.
Please go after it like the last time.
I won't misunderstand this time.
Misunderstand?
Doesn't matter. Please, smack away. Don't hold back.
Then, we won't hold back.
Oh, it's escaped.
What did you guys just do?
You said, "Don't hold back."
That wasn't for you guys!
Brother,
Sakuragi-kun is doing very well.
And we're halfway through the 20,000 shots.
Just thinking of you,
my heart can be stronger.
Since I've always got my eye on you,
I'm still running
That far-away day's dream was sincere,
and shines even now.
Whatever anxiety you may be full of
believe sincerely in your own path.
I love you, since you show your unmade-up, true face
It'd be sad if it ends up changing
Your eyes, like a young boys',
are always shining, my friend.
Just thinking of you,
my heart can be stronger
Since I've always got my eye on you,
I'm still running.
