We will soon reach the last stop.
Please be sure to take all of your belongings.
Young man, its the last stop. The last stop!
Wha? The last stop?
Huh? My schools not here?
Where is this?
I have X,

There are various other usages for the auxiliary verb have.
Ah hes sleeping again.
Echizen! Come up front and write your answer to question #3.
Ah? Okay.
Echizens gonna make a fool of himself.

He said he was on the cleaning detail today, and would be late.
Same for Horio.

Thats what he says
I bet the runt forgot his homework and had to stay late.
Thats you, isnt it, Eiji?
What? Whatre you talking about Fuji?
So this is the Seigaku Tennis team.
Hey, not bad.
Come to think of it, wheres Tezuka?
Oohthats good, Fuji. Ah, wonderful, neat. Yay!

Strange lady
Whatever Now wheres Tezuka?
You dont look like a Seigaku student. Whats your business here?
Huh?! Discovered already!
What?
Well, since Im spotted, it cant be helped.
Im the eighth-grade ace at Rikkai Affiliate Junior High
The famous Akaya Kirihara.
Rikkai Affiliate Junior High?
They won the Kanagawa Prefecture Regional Preliminaries
in a total of one hour.
The best team in the Kanto Region.
Its Sanadas school
What business has the Kanagawa representative with Seigaku?
Wella bit of spying
S-Spying?
Spying?
Echizen, youre really good at English, arent you?
As would be expected from someone returning from abroad.
Did you do everything in English when you were there?
Thats cool!
Not really.
I took conversational English classes too, you know.
How about that?
Were not asking you! Were not asking you!
Say, say, how was life in America?
Did you have a pool at home?
I used to go to swimming classes when I was a kid, you know!
Be quiet!
Whats with them!
Just because he speaks a little bit of English
Here!
Hey, pass - pass!
E-Excuse me!
What do you think youre doing, punk! That hurts
Kazu, whats the matter?
This punk hit me in the face with the broom on purpose!
What!
He did?
Hes got guts, hitting an upperclassman on purpose.
Punk, you think apologizing is enough after hitting a person with a broom?
I didnt hit you on purpose, I didnt mean anything
I really didnt.
Hey, he says he didnt hit you!
Sounds like hes trying to say he doesnt think he did anything bad.
N-No, thats not it! Youre misunderstanding!
Im really sorry! Ill do anything, so!
Youll do anything?
Then join us in our practice.
If by chance we hit anything other than the can,
we didnt intend any malice, okay?
Let us try, too.
Okay. The person who hits it on the first try,
gets a free lunch tomorrow.
Dont you run away.
Cant hit a target if its not there.
Hey, you!
Oh, Teacher!
Actually, Horio
Huh? What about Horio?
S-Spy?
Whats he thinking?
That bastard! Making fun of us!
Arai!
What are you doing?
Oh! Found you, found you!
Youre Tezuka, right?
My teammates take their hats off to you.
You were the only person to beat my teammates
at last years Kanto Tournament.
H-Hey
You know Could I have a match with you?
Huh? Its okay, right?
Lets have this outsider leave.
Come on, Tezuka. Just one set is fine.
Youre so square.
If you always frown like that, youll tire yourself.
Relax your face, see?
Hey, you! Dont be rude to our captain!
Get out of here!
Arai, you dope!
Please dont butt in.
He handled my serve
Come on, Tezuka.
Im not trying to prove anything.
Im just asking to hit a couple of balls.
Ignoring me like that makes me feel bad.
Im gonna beat you.
Just kidding! Well, if you dont want to, it cant be helped.
Hey, you over there! Im returning your ball!
Yes! Looking good!
Wh-Whats this?!
Hey, wait
Oh-ohthis is bad!
Hiss
Who did this?
Kaidos snapped!

All of you! 30 laps!
Did you guys see that? Thats nine shots in a row!
You owe me lunch.
Thats bad Kazus free throws gotten better and better.
Yeah
Lunch, lunch Nobody can beat me at free throws.
Finished!
Huh?
Echizen, lets get changed and get going already!
Time for tennis!
Takako, Kumako!
How long are you going to take cleaning up there?!
What are you being so arrogant about!
You were crying a little while ago. Its all very unconvincing!
S-Shut up! Hurry up and finish that cleaning!
Say, isnt that the seventh-grader from before?
Did you think you were spared back there?
Lets continue where we left off
A-Actually, I have to go to practice
Who cares about that?!
You said youd do anything, didnt you!
Youre joining us until I say you can go!
I-Im sorry, please forgive me!
I dont want to.
Wh-What shall we do?
Horios in trouble.
Hey
You guys scattered the trash Clean it up, will you?
Oh!
Echizen!
Huh? Who is this?
If the trash is scattered, sweep it up with that broom.
What are you looking at! You have a problem, seventh-grader?
All of this years seventh-graders havent been trained well.
Sassing us like that
You just do your cleaning quietly.
No!
Damn you seventh-grader!
What? Thats not so hard.
What? You!
Oh!
I cant believe that
Free throws are pretty easy, huh?
What is with this guy?!
Say
You want to try 10 in a row? Ill challenge you.
Ten times in a row?
You mean to challenge us at free throws?
Is this guy an idiot? With that broom?
Fine.
But if you lose, youll pay.
Ill take care of you along with that seventh-grader.
If you lose, youll do all the cleaning here.
Echizen is late
Yes! Kazu, nice shot!
Yay!
Its your turn.
I-It went in!
Wow! Hes good at tennis, but still
He can put it in with a broom?
Yay!
Yes!
Say
Is it okay to step back a little? Its hard to do it up close.
It went in!
I cant believe it!
Neither one has missed yet
Hey, come over here, look! This is interesting.
What is going on, anyway?
An eighth-grade basketball player is going against
an unknown seventh-grader at free throws.
Hey Theres a crowd gathering.
Theyre looking out the school building, too.
That kid steps back every time, yet hes hitting the baskets
Thats putting a lot of pressure on Kazu.
Damn, why am I being impatient? Theres no way I can miss.
Thats right, not me!
A basketball player cant lose at free throws!
Not to a brat like him!
Darn!
D-Damn! I tensed up!
Yes! He missed!
If he puts the next one in, Echizen wins!
Hey, Echizen! How far back are you going?
Thats about right for tennis, isnt it, Echizen?
You need this, dont you?
Thank you, Momo.
Huh? Could he be
the rumored seventh-grade regular on the tennis team?
W-Wow
It didnt even touch the net going through!
He did it! Echizen won!
Wow! He won, that seventh-grader
Hey
I hate to say this, but you still have a ways to go.
So Rikkais Kirihara was here?
Yes
Theyre a national-level powerhouse.
If we continue to win, well go up against them for sure.
We need to get even stronger, huh?
Yes. I know.
Well start our intramural ranking matches for the Kanto Tournament tomorrow.
Well
Well have to think about the order and schedule, too.
This is a big campus. Im completely lost.
Oww! Ouch!
Oh, sorry, sorry. Are you all right?
Huh? Are you on the tennis team?
I dont know
Huh? I brought along Seigakus tennis ball.
Hey! Can you return this?
Thanks.
Seigaku, huh?
Next stop, Rikkai University Affiliate Junior High.
Rikkai University Affiliate Junior High.
I cant believe it
That student slept past his stop again.
Young man, youre going to the end of the line again.
Young man!
I am Ryuzaki.
First of all, I want to congratulate you all
for doing such a great job winning the Metropolitan Tournament.
Exactly what is expected of Seigaku.
However, the Kanto Tournament is on a whole new level.
There will be many superior players.
Therefore, those who are not up to the level
will be disqualified from being the regulars
and it will be determined during these intramural ranking matches.
Next on The Prince of Tennis: A Seigaku Tradition
Everyone, psyche yourselves up!
