Fight! Kickers (1986) s01e16 Episode Script
For Love or Honor
1
I found a shooting star in the night sky.
And it softly whispered in my white throat
It's the smallest prayer in the world.
We are the Kickers.
We are a team of losers.
Tetsuya was selfish.
He saw what happened to Suri.
He almost got killed.
But everyone helped him.
He finally understood the teamwork.
When he thought he was
finally on the right track,
a man appeared in front of us.
He was a man.
Go!
What?
I think the formation
play is easy.
I can't wait for the preliminaries.
We won twice in a row.
We won't lose again.
I don't care about the preliminaries.
We should think about the practice menu.
You are so naive.
With your ability, you will
be defeated in the first round.
Oh, my!
You are like a killer in a western drama.
You are so cool.
It's a good thing that the time is late.
You are in the way of the practice.
Get out of the field.
It's useless to practice like that.
Don't talk to me.
The most important thing for this team.
is a coach who teaches the real football.
A coach?
I don't need it.
I have won so far without a coach.
I think that if we work together,
we can keep winning.
You are so naive.
But I don't have a coach.
I am here.
Wow!
Hello, kickers.
I am Ryuichi Ogami.
I am your coach.
Coach Ogami?
I am not Ogami. I am Ogami.
As far as I can see,
you are practicing with a lot of mistakes.
With a lot of mistakes?
You are not confident at all.
You are neglecting the basic practice.
You are running to the technique at hand.
But since I am here,
you are back to the origin of football.
The origin of football?
That's right.
Start the second round.
You are naive.
Don't be surprised at this level.
Go!
Hey!
You can't practice if you
are just running around.
You have to have your own rhythm.
Rhythm is important in football.
Run!
Coach Ogami is not here yet.
Lucky!
I want him to do more running.
Last night,
he was in a hurry and didn't
notice until he got up in the morning.
Thanks to me, he
forgot his homework.
It's terrible.
I don't have any appetite.
I could only eat three bowls of rice.
I'm hungry.
I think if you practice more,
you won't be able to study.
I have to quit kickers.
I have to quit kickers.
What?
If you lose the game,
kickers will be disbanded.
It's better to quit now.
Oh,
he doesn't look like Coach Ogami.
Today, I will run to
the station barefoot.
He is Coach Ogami.
Safe!
Safe!
Safe!
What?
All the passers-by are enemies.
Use the footwork to avoid
them and run to the other side.
If you can't run for 20 seconds, you will
be punished with 30 laps and 50 dashes.
I quit. I quit.
I don't want to practice anymore.
If you can't listen to the coach,
you should quit kickers.
What?
You didn't say you would
quit, did you, Kenta?
Yes.
All right. Who will go first?
I will go first.
Excuse me.
16 seconds. Passed.
Who will go next?
I will go next.
19 seconds. Passed.
Next.
I didn't mean to hit you.
I didn't mean to hit you.
You idiot.
Don't mess with me.
Excuse me.
Wait.
I can't believe that coach
is going to punish me today.
I can't stand it.
I can't stand it.
Coach.
I will practice dribbling and pass work.
Are you going to practice on a wet ground?
The ground condition
is not always the best.
I think as a professional,
we don't need to practice that much.
This is my order.
Do it.
If you can dribble
this heavy ball,
you can handle any
condition as you want.
Run, run.
Next is a mud game.
Kenta, let's go.
Oh, no.
If you are afraid of mud,
quit playing soccer.
Let's go.
Kenta, what's with that face?
What?
If you put mud on a passer-by,
you can't just apologize.
Kakeru, you do it.
But, if I bother a passer-by here,
the kickers will complain.
I will take the responsibility.
That's fine.
If you take the responsibility,
you will quit being a coach, right?
Alright. I will drive the kickers away.
I will do it.
Who's next?
I will do it.
Watch me, Coach Wolf.
I did it.
Really?
So, have you decided yet?
Before that,
I want to ask you something.
Huh?
Who asked you to be a coach?
That's none of your business.
Answer properly.
We all heard it,
but no one asked you to be a coach.
I've never heard of a kicker being a coach.
A coach who teaches real soccer
will be surprised to hear that.
The practice schedule will be
delayed, and everyone will be injured.
The kickers will be ruined.
It's true that I am a kicker.
But,
when did I ruin the kickers?
I don't think so,
but I don't know what
you are trying to do.
We want to practice soccer.
We are tired of running
and playing with drones.
The official game is about to start.
We don't want to mess up like this.
It's true that we want to win the game,
but we want to play soccer.
I don't think we will
practice until the game starts.
If we keep practicing,
we will hate soccer.
That's right.
Okay, I understand.
You don't have to do that.
Coach!
But, there is one condition.
Condition?
All of you have to
run within an hour.
Shizunami Park is 15
km away from here.
If it's within an hour,
it won't be difficult.
If I have to run within
an hour, I will do it.
I don't have confidence,
but I will run for everyone.
But, I won't give up
if there is a problem.
What should we do?
That's the time.
We just have to do our best.
That's the time.
That's right.
56 minutes have passed.
This is Shizunami Park.
We have arrived here.
I am Tokumitsu.
I can see the starting line.
That's the captain.
He is a good runner.
You can do it!
Kickers!
Shizun!
58 minutes have passed.
Only Kakeru and Taichi are left.
Will they be able to come back
in the remaining two minutes?
I can't predict
what will happen.
in this race.
Did something happen?
It's strange that Kakeru is late.
If something happens,
it must be Taichi.
We have 30 seconds left.
They are here!
Taichi is retiring.
Kakeru is cheering him up.
What a wonderful friendship!
But, they have 15 seconds left.
Taichi, do your best!
How disappointed I am.
Taxi, pass the ball!
What a surprise!
Taichi still seems to
be able to help them by
physically and psychologically
Ten minutes have passed.
What a wonderful
and emotional moment!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
I want to quit too, but
a promise is a promise.
Unfortunately, you are five seconds late.
F-five seconds late?
That much?
Naive!
The game is over.
There is no referee who will accept a
shot that was decided five seconds later.
I'm sorry. I'm such a fool.
Taichi, you don't have to cry.
It's a great progress just
by being able to finish.
To show Taichi's hard work,
I'll give you one more chance.
How about playing a game with
that team and quit if you win?
That's right!
After all, we have won twice in
a row against a strong opponent.
You fool!
Don't underestimate us just
because our opponent is a girl!
You can't beat that team now!
Don't be silly!
Then, let's do it!
That's right!
That's right!
We'll show you our technique!
Anyway, let's play a game!
Yeah!
I'm Tomomi Nishimura, the
captain of Tachibana Purples.
Don't go out just because you're a girl.
Ah, yes.
Who could have predicted
that the Kickers would play
against the beautiful
girls at Shizunami Ground?
Who could have predicted
that the Kickers would play
against the beautiful
girls at Shizunami Ground?
But, depending on the outcome
of this game, the coach, Mr.
Ogami, may leave the Kickers.
There is also a dramatic plot twist.
Mamoru, wait!
Oh, no!
Who's there?
Oh, no!
Oh, no! Purples!
They scored a goal in no time!
Hang on, Mr. Ogami!
I'm not good with girls!
I don't like the beautiful girls!
This is an unexpected game development.
Purples are attacking with
fast movements and fast passes.
They seem to be running a lot.
World's No.
1 A little pause
and we are back.
A little pause
and we are back.
Let's go!
I called out to you and kissed you.
I called out to you and kissed you.
The left side is open!
Use the long pass to connect!
The ball hits your heart.
I'll throw it away.
In the corner of the glass.
An unnoticeable child likes you.
Everyone's eyes are
They're running a lot.
That's all they're doing,
but they're so fast!
Just because there's a difference in speed
doesn't mean it's going to be a good game.
Watch out!
Try to remember the trunk race!
The trunk race?
And I think the enemy is a passer-by.
A passer-by on the trunk?
I see.
The game is over.
2 to 1.
We lost.
Thank you.
Kakeru, you're a great fighter.
Oh, yes.
Let's play again sometime.
Let's play?
Yeah.
Coach!
I finally understand what you're thinking.
The basics of soccer are running.
It's frustrating, but the captain is right.
I've realized again how
important it is to run.
I've realized it again.
I think that if one
player keeps the ball for
40 minutes, it's 40
minutes divided by 22,
which is 1 minute and 49 seconds.
The remaining 38 minutes and
11 seconds are just running, right?
Come to think of it, there
was no such sport in the past.
But we love soccer!
Please let us continue playing soccer!
We won twice in a row, and
we were on a winning streak.
We lost to the Purples,
and we finally woke up.
The Kickers are going to start over.
From now on Please coach us!
Are you saying that you'll accept
Coach Oshikage as your coach?
Yes. I think I'll like Coach Okami.
Not Okami!
How many times do you have to say Okami?
Coach Okami, please!
Alright, if that's what you want.
I won't hold back.
Be prepared!
Yes!
Run back to school in an hour,
just like when you came here.
Got it?
Alright, let's go!
Yeah!
I'm an idiot, but
they're all soccer idiots.
It's Valentine's Day.
Everyone is so nervous
that they can't practice at all.
But if you tell us to go, we'll tell
you not to get chocolates tomorrow.
Next time The Kickers'
Golden Valentine's Day.
Next Time The Kickers'
Golden Valentine's Day The Kickers'
Golden Valentine's Day The
Kickers' Golden Valentine's Day.
The straw hat I lost in the grassland
The night when the silver rain falls
The Silver Rain The Silver Rain.
A letter with no address I
ran away from the platform
But the star is still shining
A boy returning to the petals I
want to stay by your side forever
I found a shooting star in the night sky.
And it softly whispered in my white throat
It's the smallest prayer in the world.
We are the Kickers.
We are a team of losers.
Tetsuya was selfish.
He saw what happened to Suri.

Don't talk to me.
The most important thing for this team.
is a coach who teaches the real football.
A coach?
I don't need it.
I have won so far without a coach.
I think that if we work together,
we can keep winning.
You are so naive.
But I don't have a coach.
I am here.
Wow!
Hello, kickers.
I am Ryuichi Ogami.
I am your coach.
Coach Ogami?
I am not Ogami. I am Ogami.
As far as I can see,
you are practicing with a lot of mistakes.
With a lot of mistakes?
You are not confident at all.
You are neglecting the basic practice.
You are running to the technique at hand.
But since I am here,
you are back to the origin of football.
The origin of football?
That's right.
Start the second round.
You are naive.
Don't be surprised at this level.
Go!
Hey!
You can't practice if you
are just running around.
You have to have your own rhythm.
Rhythm is important in football.
Run!
Coach Ogami is not here yet.
Lucky!
I want him to do more running.
Last night,
he was in a hurry and didn't
notice until he got up in the morning.
Thanks to me, he
forgot his homework.
It's terrible.
I don't have any appetite.
I could only eat three bowls of rice.

Safe!

I quit. I quit.
I don't want to practice anymore.
If you can't listen to the coach,
you should quit kickers.
What?
You didn't say you would
quit, did you, Kenta?
Yes.
All right. Who will go first?
I will go first.
Excuse me.
16 seconds. Passed.
Who will go next?
I will go next.
19 seconds. Passed.
Next.
I didn't mean to hit you.
I didn't mean to hit you.
You idiot.
Don't mess with me.
Excuse me.
Wait.
I can't believe that coach
is going to punish me today.
I can't stand it.
I can't stand it.
Coach.
I will practice dribbling and pass work.

Run, run.
Next is a mud game.
Kenta, let's go.
Oh, no.
If you are afraid of mud,
quit playing soccer.
Let's go.
Kenta, what's with that face?
What?
If you put mud on a passer-by,
you can't just apologize.
Kakeru, you do it.
But, if I bother a passer-by here,
the kickers will complain.
I will take the responsibility.
That's fine.
If you take the responsibility,
you will quit being a coach, right?
Alright. I will drive the kickers away.
I will do it.
Who's next?
I will do it.
Watch me, Coach Wolf.
I did it.
Really?
So, have you decided yet?
Before that,
I want to ask you something.
Huh?
Who asked you to be a coach?
That's none of your business.
Answer properly.
We all heard it,
but no one asked you to be a coach.

A coach who teaches real soccer

The kickers will be ruined.
It's true that I am a kicker.
But,
when did I ruin the kickers?
I don't think so,
but I don't know what
you are trying to do.
We want to practice soccer.
We are tired of running
and playing with drones.
The official game is about to start.
We don't want to mess up like this.
It's true that we want to win the game,
but we want to play soccer.
I don't think we will
practice until the game starts.
If we keep practicing,
we will hate soccer.
That's right.
Okay, I understand.
You don't have to do that.
Coach!
But, there is one condition.
Condition?
All of you have to
run within an hour.
Shizunami Park is 15
km away from here.
If it's within an hour,
it won't be difficult.
If I have to run within
an hour, I will do it.
I don't have confidence,
but I will run for everyone.
But, I won't give up
if there is a problem.
What should we do?
That's the time.
We just have to do our best.
That's the time.
That's right.
56 minutes have passed.
This is Shizunami Park.
We have arrived here.
I am Tokumitsu.
I can see the starting line.
That's the captain.
He is a good runner.
You can do it!
Kickers!
Shizun!
58 minutes have passed.
Only Kakeru and Taichi are left.
Will they be able to come back
in the remaining two minutes?
I can't predict
what will happen.
in this race.
Did something happen?
It's strange that Kakeru is late.
If something happens,
it must be Taichi.
We have 30 seconds left.
They are here!
Taichi is retiring.
Kakeru is cheering him up.
What a wonderful friendship!
But, they have 15 seconds left.
Taichi, do your best!
How disappointed I am.
Taxi, pass the ball!
What a surprise!
Taichi still seems to
be able to help them by
physically and psychologically
Ten minutes have passed.
What a wonderful
and emotional moment!
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
I want to quit too, but
a promise is a promise.
Unfortunately, you are five seconds late.
F-five seconds late?
That much?
Naive!
The game is over.
There is no referee who will accept a
shot that was decided five seconds later.
I'm sorry. I'm such a fool.
Taichi, you don't have to cry.
It's a great progress just
by being able to finish.
To show Taichi's hard work,
I'll give you one more chance.
How about playing a game with
that team and quit if you win?
That's right!
After all, we have won twice in
a row against a strong opponent.
You fool!
Don't underestimate us just
because our opponent is a girl!
You can't beat that team now!
Don't be silly!
Then, let's do it!
That's right!
That's right!
We'll show you our technique!
Anyway, let's play a game!
Yeah!
I'm Tomomi Nishimura, the
captain of Tachibana Purples.
Don't go out just because you're a girl.
Ah, yes.
Who could have predicted
that the Kickers would play
against the beautiful
girls at Shizunami Ground?

I don't like the beautiful girls!

Let's play again sometime.
Let's play?
Yeah.
Coach!
I finally understand what you're thinking.
The basics of soccer are running.
It's frustrating, but the captain is right.
I've realized again how
important it is to run.
I've realized it again.
I think that if one
player keeps the ball for
40 minutes, it's 40
minutes divided by 22,
which is 1 minute and 49 seconds.
The remaining 38 minutes and
11 seconds are just running, right?

But we love soccer!
Please let us continue playing soccer!

From now on Please coach us!
Are you saying that you'll accept

Yes. I think I'll like Coach Okami.
Not Okami!
How many times do you have to say Okami?
Coach Okami, please!
Alright, if that's what you want.
I won't hold back.
Be prepared!
Yes!
Run back to school in an hour,
just like when you came here.
Got it?
Alright, let's go!
Yeah!
I'm an idiot, but
they're all soccer idiots.
It's Valentine's Day.
Everyone is so nervous
that they can't practice at all.
But if you tell us to go, we'll tell
you not to get chocolates tomorrow.
Next time The Kickers'
Golden Valentine's Day.
