RIDE 284
teshima, resolute
onoda vo: teshima san… and koga san…
onoda vo: are gonna fight!!
onoda: WAIT!!!!
onoda: wait please!!
onoda: um…
onoda: wh-what if you guys just talk it out instead of fighting…
onoda: isn’t there some other way?
onoda: koga-san has always been such a nice and good person
onoda: and teshima-san, you also have always been so kind and dependable… it’s not really about winning or losing…
koga: onoda
koga: sohoku’s inter-high member lineup
koga: was never finalized to begin with.
onoda: what?
koga: teshima said he was using the first year race to decide on the final remaining member for our inter-high team this year
koga: but if that were true, then for upperclassmen like myself to have a chance at joining the team
koga: we would have had to do as sugimoto did
koga: and ride in the first year race!
koga: but that’s frankly unrealistic, and you’re an intelligent guy,
koga: you aren’t the type to overlook such a gaping hole in your own plans
koga: are you, teshima!
koga: he said it himself before the camp started:
koga: you’re in if you finish before 6th place
koga: and if you can’t, he’s dropping you.
teshima flashback: i’ll have to ask you to leave the team.
naruko: !!
koga: he knew very well that i was coming
koga: and he was prepared for it…… wasn’t he.
teshima: imaizumi, naruko, onoda, kaburagi…… i should apologize,
teshima: i did tell you i’d finalized the inter-high member lineup already, but it turns out that was a lie.
imaizumi: !
naruko: !?
onoda: !!
kaburagi: what?
teshima: the only spot on the team not finalized yet is mine!
(sfx of koga’s tendons/muscles tensing)
(GOOOHHHHH sfx and koga launching forward sfx)
onoda vo: !! it’s the “thunderous roar!”
koga: the teshima i used to know would have faltered by now!
teshima: KO— GA—!!
koga: it’s been a long time since i’ve raced seriously against you
koga: junta!!
teshima: i’d say it’s a first!
teshima: since before when i rode with you, i’d always wind up half dead before long!
teshima: how are your injuries, fully healed?
koga: yes. thanks to those injuries,
koga: i wasted a year and a half resting…
koga: but i'm healed now…
koga: i was healed--
koga: just to race this year in my last inter-high!
koga: switch with me, teshima!! sohoku will be stronger with me leading the team!!
koga: a sohoku built on strength!!
(GOHHHHH sfx)
koga: that is my plan for the team.
koga: aoyagi and naruko can take the flats
koga: onoda can take the slopes while kaburagi assists
koga: and as for the goal, leave it to me and imaizumi!! if we do it my way, it's possible----
koga: we can defend our title and win again!!
koga: don't worry, we'll all get used to the new team in no time.
koga: i know them all well, after all
koga: since i've always been there
koga: in the corner of the clubhouse, watching over them.
koga: it's been hard on you, i'm sure,
koga: gathering all these surly teens and making a team out of them.
koga: but it's all right now. you can leave it to me from here on out!!
teshima: don't you worry your head about me.
teshima: everything i did, i did because i wanted to.
teshima: i have no intention of handing the reins over easily!!
teshima: we'll decide this over the next 1000km!!
teshima: koga!!
koga: teshima!!
kaburagi: eh?! wait…… don't tell me…
kaburagi: koga-san wants to take teshima's place as captain!?
kaburagi: are you serious!?
imaizumi: ……
onoda: but…… if we hadn't had teshima-san with us at the preliminaries
onoda: we wouldn't have won
kaburagi: yeah!! we only won because teshima-san was with us
kaburagi: it was only thanks to him!
kaburagi: ah……… but………
kaburagi: when we saw them race out just now……
kaburagi: …to be brutally honest……
kaburagi: koga-san was… fast……er…
imaizumi: it's…
imaizumi: not looking good…
imaizumi: we're going after them!!
onoda: yea!
kaburagi: yessir!
naruko: of course we are!!
imaizumi: ………whatever happens here,
imaizumi: we have to see the end of this---
imaizumi: with our own eyes!!
naruko: "the only spot not finalized is mine?"
naruko: don't go around trying to act cool, mr. fancy perm
naruko: a race to decide this fight!?
naruko: are you kidding me!?
naruko: that glasses-senpai is no ordinary racer!
naruko: you're going to lose!!
onoda: this is teshima-san we're talking about!
onoda: he's gotta have a trick up his sleeve somewhere!
onoda: something that will surprise us all…
onoda: he has to…… he has to……
onoda: but then why
onoda: do i feel so uneasy!!
koga: teshima… we're 800 meters from the start goal line.
koga: why don't you take this chance to show me? show me just how fast an ordinary racer like you has gotten in the time i've been away.
koga: don't hold back
koga: let me say this clearly so you can hear
koga: i don't plan on letting you even finish this 1000km race
koga: i'll cut you down!! i'll drive you into the ground!!
koga: with pure power!
teshima: uuwwwooooooohhh!!
koga: i'll have you retire from this race!!
?: 400 meters left!
naruko: they've gotten into sprint positions!
onoda: teshima-san!
onoda: are they using this last stretch before the goal to test each other's strength?
teshima: OOOOOOOOOOOH
teshima: OOOOH
onoda: teshima-san is slightly ahead!
naruko: he broke free!
naruko: you can do it!!
koga: you have become stronger…
koga: i wouldn't even recognize you as the racer you were two years ago, that's how much better youve gotten!!
koga: but at the end of the day…
(GGGOOOOOHHHH sfx)
koga: you're still ordinary.
koga: this is your current strength
imaizumi: that sprint just before the goal line…!!
imaizumi: he's strong!!
naruko: testing each other's strength? no……
naruko: this is a serious, all-out fight.
koga: do you feel more amenable now to letting me have the captaincy?
teshima: ahhh, how can i say this……
teshima: it's 1000 km……… to the final goal…………
teshima: (breathing sfx) ha… ha…… ha……………
teshima: and it looks like you're not gonna be able to just take it easy sipping your tea along the way.
koga: still running your mouth like you always do, i guess,
koga: even though i told you i'd force you into retiring out of this race.
koga: well, in that case…
koga: i'll just have to drive you so hard you'll lose the ability to speak!
onoda vo: he's planning on forcing teshima-san to… "retire"…!?
koga: i am, after all…
koga: the one they call the “power dummy.”
