Wait, Makio!
Right now, even the Inter-High isn't a pipe dream for us.
But I also know that we won't make it like this.
I understand how you feel.
You should know what our team needs.
Right now, what the soccer team needs...
...is a training camp.
Next time, on Soccer Boyfriend:

Miwa-chan Wants to Do a Training Camp
A training camp?!
A training camp, huh? I guess we've never done one.
There was no point since we were so weak.
We've been miraculously lucky to make it this far.
If we want to turn that miraculous luck into deserved victories,
we must improve our skills, physical ability, and mental strength at once.
Then we should just do it at our summer villa.
That's my Kaocchi! You know what's up!
Zaizen.
No need to thank me. Anything to make our team better.
Can I bring my girlfriend?
I want to bring my grandma.
I want to bring my dog and parakeet.
You guys are ridiculous! Just shut it!
I won't go.
Why not?!
Taking a bath together after practice!
Sleeping in a big pile in the hall!
Having secret pillow fights!
What could be better than that?!
I don't want any of that.
Damn them all.
Welcome home, Daddy. You're back early.
That I am.
I heard you're going to a training camp.
Y-Yes.
You don't have any talent for soccer. Going to a training camp is pointless.
You do know what I'm talking about, right?
I'll make the opponents' goal bigger.
Wha?
Then you'll be able to score lots more goals.
Hey, call the prime minister. We're changing the rules of soccer!
Are you stupid?
You're coddling Brother far too much, Father.
Karin!
That said, going to Nationals is his dream.
I'll do all I can to help, though it may not be much.
Karin.
You are so cute! The cutest in the world, no, in the universe!
I'm already in 9th grade!
Fly my angel, fly!
Hey, put me down! Put me down!
I am so overwhelmed!
Hey! S-Stop!
Karin!
Who are you?
Kaocchi!
Coach? What are you doing here?
I decided to ask for your sister's help.
Documentary Zaizen Kaoru & Aoyama-kun
What is this?
The other clubs are coming, too?
I invited them.
I also arranged for a pro camera crew to record you have the time of your life.
Where's Narita?
Who knows.
There's a limited-time sea quest in Monstrosity Hunter.
I don't have time for a training camp.
Aoyama-kun isn't here.
Taking the bus would be hard for him.
You're quite close to your neighbor.
He might be taking his bike.
Or not come at all.
Wh-What's happening?!
A-Aoyama?
What's going on?
So bright!
He's cleaned it through and through!
I'm glad you made it, Aoyama.
What?
That's...
Fighter jets?
Kaocchi, you forgot something
Daddy—I mean, old man?
New cleats?
Damn you, Richie Rich!
Thank you, Daddy.
Super Effective Boy's Cleaning Diaries
I'll be waiting on location. -Dad
I wonder why Aoyama changed his mind about coming.
For the team, of course. He knows how important this is.
I'll be spending a night under the same roof as Aoyama-kun.
I feel like this is diverging from the training camp episode,
but whatever.
Going to a training camp with the whole school should be fun.
Whoa!
I was expecting fancy, but...
This goes beyond my imagination.
Welcome. Let me show you to your rooms.
For Aoyama-sama, we have a single room with a super potent air purifying machine.
So that's why you came?!
If this is what he gets, our rooms should be great, too.
Yeah.
For the rest of you, we have a Japanese-style room.
Oh, nice!
This is it.
K-Karin-chan, is this really it?
What happened to all the class and glamour?
My brother said that you all wanted to sleep in a big pile.
Zaizen!
Hey, it feels more like a training camp this way.
I've always dreamed about having a training camp in this kinda place.
I am delighted that one of your dreams has come true, Brother.
You're late.
Aoyama Life
That's Gotou-chan for you. Always sticks to her brand.
All right. Split into teams and practice.
What? On the beach?
On the sand, you lack a stable footing, so it'll train your legs and core.
And the Zaizen Group will provide support with its cutting-edge tech.
Master!
Yurippe.
The beach is the best!
They have Aoyama on their side.
Let's just do our best, okay?
You're assuming we're gonna lose?
I like it.
The stronger the opponent, the better the taste of victory.
Victory at all cost! Come on, Team Red!
Fight!
Okay, I'm up for this now!
I feel like we can win!
H-Huh?
Aoyama-kun refused to get in the pool, but he's okay with the ocean?
Aoyama, what are you doing?
We're starting!
Nice clearance, Umeya!
Not bad.
On the other hand...
Aoyama!
Yes?
Put some slide tackles in or whatever! Do something to get the ball!
It would get sand on me.
Oh, don't worry about that.
This beach has purified sand with an anti-bacterial coating.
Well, everybody's been stepping on it.
You're saying our feet are dirty?!
Are you okay?
I think I twisted my ankle.
Aoyama-kun!
Yurippe!
I ♥ Aoyama
She didn't even notice.
Are you all right?
Please leave this to our sports doctor.
Gotou-chan, do you want to go in for Ishikawa?
Huh?
Miwa-chan?
I know you always put in work by yourself after practice.
She noticed!
I can play soccer with Aoyama-kun.
Want to join Team Red, then?
Yeah.
After I joined a different middle school, I had my parents buy me a soccer ball.
To make up for not being able to see you,
I ♥ Aoyama
I spent those three years kicking that ball every day.
Gotou-chan!
Got it!
Going hard on her would be mean. I should be gentle.
Huh?
She's good!
A Neymar-esque sombrero flick?!
However!
You won't get past us!
Pathetic.
I'll stop her!
Hey! Zaizen!
She's a girl!
This is the problem with muscle-heads!
Hey, I didn't touch her!
Malicia? She dove?
Where did she learn such a cunning move?
One-on-one against Aoyama?
Gotou-chan passed Aoyama!
What? Aoyama slid?!
Is it a foul?
No, Aoyama touched the ball!
It's not a foul.
Leave it to me!
What?
Kaocchi's terrible with his feet.
Terrible with his feet?
Gotou Moka.
Stop doing that. I don't like dirty plays.
I'm sorry.
Your dribbling was good, though.
Soccer comes first for me, and you come second.
Thank you.
Makio.
Just now, on the bottom of my foot,
however slight it might have been, I felt Aoyama-kun's touch.
Sensei, I'm glad I came to the training camp!

Make sure to warm up properly!
You there! Don't get distracted!
Bend and stretch, put your hands on your knees and go round and round.
Warming up is the best!
When you've touched the rock that you can see in the sea, you come back.
I've always wanted to try long-distance swimming.
First!

Rest
We've been swimming for a while.
But we're not getting closer at all.
What's going on?
I'll go ahead, then!
Watch out!
A wall?!
I thought it was real, but it's a picture.
Amazing!
So that's a picture, too.
So we've been indoors all this time.
Exactly.
This is a dome that imitates nature, tailor-made for Brother's training camp.
Karin!
Using the Zaizen Group's proprietary construction methods,
we were able to build a dome with a one kilometer diameter.
And by aggressively using solar and other renewable energy, we cut costs by 65%.
Costs Reduced By
Patent Acquired
We even got a patent for it.
Even if it's for her brother...
...the scale of it all is out of whack.
The Zaizen Group really is amazing.
Also, to help my brother overcome his terrible footing,
we have one more contraption.
Please do not worry. The waves are localized to where my brother is.
H-Hey!
Give it your best, Brother.
If you overcome this wave, your footing should become more stable!
Um, when people say that someone's terrible with their feet,
they actually mean that person sucks at soccer.
Zaizen-san, in particular, simply can't shoot at all.
Impressive.
This over-the-top sisterly love.
Zaizen's got it rough, huh?
I'm so happy!
He seems super satisfied!
So tired.
After that, there was shooting practice.
Dribbling practice.
We did all sorts of things, but I'm too hungry to remember.
So hungry.
It's time to eat.
All right!
If it's Zaizen food, it must be really delicious!
Of course.
Please enjoy.
A pea?!
K-Karin-sama. Is this some kind of...
This is the ultimate meal, one grain packed with every nutrient known to man.
The fruit of all of Zaizen Group's research combined,
the jewel in our crown!
Th-This is...
It might be nutritious.
But it just doesn't make you feel full.
What is this aroma?
Who are you?!
Jinnai-sensei?
Let us eat!
So full! So good!
What is it?
Time for some recreational fun.
We're holding a test of courage.
With just guys?
Sensei, can outsiders participate, too?
Sure.

I hope I can be paired with you and Aoyama-kun.
Yes, let's be a pair together with Aoyama.
That's not a pair. Not happening.
I hope we'll be paired up, Yuu-chan.
I don't do ghosts, so I'll bail.
Now, then!
Operating Room
Listen up, Aoyama.
Now that we've paired up,
no matter what happens, follow me...
Eek!
U-Until the end!
H-Hey.
Will we be okay?
Wow, amazing.
This is really well made.
How is she not scared?
Those Hollywood pros they flew in really did their thing.
Shall we?
Yeah.
I'm so glad I'm paired with Odagiri-san.
I won't let you sully Aoyama-kun!
G-Gotou-chan, swinging around a bat like that is dangerous!
I'm starting to have fun.
Nurse Station
The time has come. We're going to use this opportunity...
to hug Aoyama-kun!
Aoyama-kun!
Zaizen-san?
Leave him to me, Moka-chan! You take care of the ghosts!
Got it!
What is it with them?
Aoyama only cares about cleaning,
and Gotou-chan only cares about Aoyama.
Odagiri-chan isn't scared at all, and Zaizen is too scared.
Some test of courage.
I-I finally made it out.
Karin!
Brother.
I've been waiting for you.
Eek!
It's finally clean.
That was fun, right?
Good.
Practice is good, but having fun is the best.
All right! I guess I'll check my training camp answers now!
All right!
This is the fruit of our training camp!
Kurata Kozue!
Did Aoyama just...
He just yelled, didn't he?
You seem well, Aoyama.
