00:00I... I resign.
00:19How? The title holder lost two matches in a row?
00:22What's worse, Mikodono had never lost to Yatsumi before this.
00:26She's right. The title matches our best three out of five.
00:32So one more loss, and Miwa loses it all.
00:37Miwa!
00:38She already left. I'm afraid you're too late.
00:44But you're still here?
00:56I don't know.
00:57I'm not sure.
01:00Sorry.
01:01We're not sure what it's like to say to you.
01:04But I'll be very lucky.
01:06I'm not sure what it's like to say to you.
01:08I'll be very lucky.
01:10But I'm not sure what it is.
01:11I think it's like a true love.
01:13And I'm not sure what it's like to say to you.
01:16Yeah.
01:17I don't care.
01:17I think it's like a true love.
01:19I'll see you next time.
01:49I'll see you next time.
02:20You Ayase, was it? A pleasure. You must have come here to drive home that washed-up loser.
02:26Say that again?
02:28Miwa Mikodono failed to do her research. She relied too much on her natural genius.
02:34Her eyes were too firmly set on securing a late-game win.
02:37But she bungled the early game in the process.
02:40She's never gone 0-2. But there's a reason I'm her rival. I'll bet you she cried the entire way home.
02:47I suggest you hurry home to console her.
02:54Listen here.
02:56Uh, hold on.
02:58Thank you so much.
03:00What? Why are you thanking me?
03:02What? Did I get the wrong impression? Aren't you saying Miwa wasn't playing her best?
03:07What?
03:08But if she trains and forms a game plan, she can make a comeback?
03:11Say what?
03:12So you're hoping I'll help her get back on her feet, since she's probably crushed from her first double loss?
03:16That's what it seemed like.
03:18What? No!
03:19That couldn't be any further from what I meant! Stop trying to read between the lines!
03:23Are you sure? Then why are you still here? Your match ended a while ago.
03:27You hoped I'd pass some intel along to her. That's why you're waiting around!
03:32Nuh-uh!
03:33By the way, great job nailing the dramatic entrance before!
03:39Well, see you later!
03:43Oh! That's right! I almost forgot!
03:47If you assume Miwa's done, you've got another thing coming.
03:53Back off! Who are you anyway?
03:58Just an assistant!
03:59Don't think you're special, you ISA!
04:03No one else knows how great Miwa Mikajono is! Not like me!
04:08I'm home!
04:10Oh, hey, you.
04:13They look miserable.
04:15Did something happen here? Where's Miwa?
04:18That's the problem.
04:20She came back for a few minutes, but after that...
04:23She just suddenly rushed out.
04:26Wait! So she ran away?
04:28Do- Do you think she was that shaken up by the loss?
04:31Hey, our sister isn't that weak!
04:34But still, I think there's something else that's got her down in the dumps.
04:38You just have to win the next three! No problem for you, right?
04:42Of course!
04:43These last matches will be yours for sure!
04:46You work hard! That's gonna shine through!
04:48You've dedicated your whole life to Shogi!
04:51You're just like your big sisters!
04:53You know, failure isn't always a bad thing.
04:56I had to learn that myself recently.
04:58If I can do-
04:58Shove it.
04:59I'm nothing like the two of you.
05:11I guess she takes her title matches more seriously than we thought.
05:15Hearing a couple of amateurs try and hype her up seemed to rub her the wrong way.
05:21Usually, Miwa stews silently whenever she's feeling pissed off.
05:26Never seen her mad enough to snap.
05:28It was a first.
05:29Hey, where do you think you're going?
05:36I have to go look for her!
05:38Yeah, but how?
05:39She's not answering her phone, so where will you start?
05:42Just stay here in case she comes home!
05:57Miwa...
05:58Shove it.
06:00I'm nothing like the two of you.
06:10What could make her so upset?
06:19Yes!
06:20Found her!
06:26There you are!
06:27Why are you here?
06:28I'm so relieved to see you safe and sound.
06:32My imagination was starting to run wild.
06:35I'm almost scared to ask.
06:40I was expecting worse.
06:42Have you met me, dude?
06:45Here you go.
06:47I appreciate it, ma'am.
06:48Anyway, you come here often?
07:00Time to time.
07:02We're all a little too busy for pets.
07:05Maybe we need to do it.
07:07I swear to you.
07:08I'll be right back.
07:09I'll be right back.
07:09I'll be right back.
07:10I don't know.
07:12I'll be right back.
07:13I'll be right back.
07:13I don't know.
07:14Let me know.
07:14Yeah, true.
07:16But hey, I'm glad you can come to this place whenever you need to cheer up at least.
07:22And like, who cares if you lost the first two games?
07:26This thing's not over.
07:28You just needed a chance to recoup.
07:30Now you can win for sure.
07:32She's snooting the cat!
07:45In Shogi, all the pros are alike.
07:49They dedicate their whole lives to the game.
07:52Every day is spent studying.
07:55Because they live for it.
07:58I've never met a pro who's any different.
08:01I know! Watching the way you train, I can totally tell.
08:05Not me.
08:08I'm a phony.
08:11I don't live for Shogi.
08:14Hold on, but I see how hard you work at home.
08:18Yeah.
08:19So I can accomplish something.
08:22It didn't have to be Shogi.
08:25It's a means to an end.
08:27It could've been anything.
08:29Chess.
08:30Or Go, or anything else.
08:32It literally didn't matter.
08:34Miwa, you're a born prodigy.
08:38You have a gift that could never be obtained through mere hard work.
08:42You are a natural.
08:44So show the world how gifted you are.
08:55She broke the record for the youngest champion.
08:57It's the rise of a wonderkin.
08:59Well done today, Miwa.
09:00You even took down the male pose?
09:01Wow, they're rocks!
09:02Of course my sister would shine that brightly.
09:03I wanted my dad to praise my accomplishments.
09:06I wanted something I could do as well as Kazuki and Niko.
09:21So I decided to pick up Shogi.
09:24That's the only reason.
09:27And yet...
09:37I don't really get it.
09:38Why do you two work so hard all the time?
09:41Why else but my endless passion for the stage?
09:44I'm just having a good time getting stronger with my training each day.
09:50Something about what they said never clicked for me.
09:53They wanted to work hard.
09:57Because they were pursuing what they truly loved.
10:00Meanwhile, I was only working on Shogi because I had a knack for it.
10:04That's it.
10:06I'm nothing like the two of you.
10:10Shogi pros are scary competitive.
10:13It's their everything.
10:15You can feel it from across the board.
10:18I don't care like them.
10:20And I've always wondered if they can tell how shallow my feelings are.
10:26So I knew all along I would reach a day when I couldn't do it anymore.
10:33Thank you for telling me that. Truly.
10:39I just... don't wanna go home.
10:46Yeah, I hear ya.
10:47Well, there's still plenty of time, so...
10:48I'm not letting you go. Not quite yet. Stay with me.
10:49Absolutely again.
10:51можin'
10:55Thank you for telling me that. Truly.
10:58I just... don't want to go home.
11:02Yeah, I hear ya.
11:04Well, there's still plenty of time, so...
11:09I'm not letting you go. Not quite yet. Stay with me.
11:24Hey, the rain lit up. That's nice.
11:27I'm not letting you go. Not quite yet.
11:34Stay with me.
11:36Oh, wait! You mean...
11:43Come see the selection at this place. It's the largest supermarket they have in the area.
11:48Are you seriously telling me you just wanted to get some shopping done?
11:52No. Your sisters are worried sick.
11:55They were scared they said something that set you over the edge, and that's why you ran away.
12:00I figured we could get a gift to help you guys patch things up.
12:04Yeah, that's a good idea.
12:06Let's make them something. You'd know best. What kind of sweets do they like?
12:11Hmm...
12:13Kazuki's always trying to seem more grown up, so she'd probably like something bittersweet.
12:18She does drink a lot of coffee, so maybe coffee jelly? But, of course, we'd need to make it look fancy.
12:25And then Nico... well, she's been getting real into cutesy stuff lately.
12:29I just found this out, but she shares my sweet tooth, so I say we make a pretty little cupcake.
12:35Yeah, sounds good. Let's use some natural sweeteners so we can cut back on the calories and sugar.
12:41We don't want to mess with their diets.
12:43They really thought of everything when they stalked this place.
12:47This is for Kazuki, and Nico's sure to love this one.
12:58I can't believe they let you wander around school like this so late at night.
13:01Guess it comes with the territory as a royal.
13:04But why are we here, anyway?
13:06To keep the gifts a secret. Don't want to spoil the surprise.
13:13Hey, dude. I've had a question on my mind for a while.
13:16You're, like, crazy good at cooking.
13:19How did that happen?
13:21Do you have any other hidden talents you're trying to keep from us?
13:24No way! My cooking only seems good by comparison to everything else I do!
13:28Seriously, I struggle every time I cook.
13:31As a kid, I guess it never seemed like there was anything I was able to get right.
13:38Next to my mom, I felt like nothing, so I started avoiding her.
13:44Until one day, I fixed up my own breakfast just for a change of pace.
13:50And then, my mom was up early even though she got in late.
13:55Let's see what you made here.
13:57I know.
14:02Wow! Great job!
14:04I was happy.
14:07My mom wasn't one to give praise lightly.
14:10I wanted to see her smile like that more.
14:13So I worked on my cooking day in and day out.
14:17Wow.
14:18But I had no luck.
14:20It all tasted awful, but looked good, or vice versa.
14:24And my mom was too busy to even try what I made anyway.
14:29I was burnt out.
14:31I only did it for her in the first place, so I stopped.
14:35Around that time, she was hospitalized.
14:39I'm going to the store. Anything you need?
14:43Anything you need?
14:50One thing.
14:54I want to eat something you made.
15:02Watch the sodium, and we've listed her allergies and anything else to avoid.
15:06It tastes great.
15:27Would you make more, my dear?
15:30The whole time she was in the hospital, I made almost everything she ate.
15:41Every day, just thinking about how her face would light up from my cooking.
15:46I don't know. Anyone would improve like that, yeah?
15:50It was luck.
15:51I wasn't lucky there, bro.
15:54But I saw the look on your face when we were shopping for your sisters earlier.
15:58You were having fun.
16:00What?
16:01Weren't you imagining how happy they'd be after we gave them what we made?
16:04No! I absolutely was not!
16:06I was just having fun exploring that giganto supermarket!
16:10Yeah, sure.
16:12Anyway, let's finish up.
16:13Hey, Miwa, back at the cafe you said you were different from both your sisters,
16:24and different from the other shogi pros, too.
16:28You called your feelings shallow because of the reason you played.
16:33You wanted praise and recognition, and that's how you got it.
16:37But still, you wanted to make your father proud, and that's a totally normal goal.
16:44You want to be as good as your sisters, and that's only natural.
16:48Because you love them.
16:52Hey, don't talk like you know what I'm thinking!
16:55There's nothing wrong with that.
16:57You know, the reason that some people strive isn't because they want to be the best.
17:04They want to make others happy.
17:06To know the people they love are proud.
17:09Working hard so selflessly is wonderful.
17:11That's you, though.
17:14You're just a caring person.
17:20They turned out so beautiful!
17:23Wait till you give them to your sisters!
17:26They're gonna be thrilled!
17:30That's enough?
17:31I can work hard just for the people I love?
17:43No! Why did you pop up when I was thinking of that?
17:46Didn't realize I was with a baby who missed his nap time!
18:02Still...
18:03There you are!
18:05Why are you here?
18:07I'm so relieved to see you safe and sound.
18:10I figured we could get a gift to help you guys patch things up.
18:14Yeah, that's a good idea.
18:16Let's make them something!
18:18Working hard so selflessly is wonderful.
18:22That's you, though. You're just a caring person.
18:24You're just a caring person.
18:25Thanks for today. You?
18:29Thanks for today, you.
18:59What took you so long?
19:17We were relieved when you told us you actually found Miwa.
19:20But how did it take you four hours to get home after that?
19:23Sorry, my bad.
19:25Seems like you were so worried about her you couldn't sleep.
19:27What? No! It's because the doors are unlocked!
19:31That's right! And I was up doing homework.
19:33Don't blame you. I kept us out, okay?
19:36It was my fault.
19:39But she helped me make these.
19:43For us?
19:44Sorry, I was too harsh.
19:47Don't know if this fixes things, but...
19:49Wait, what?
19:51You made these yourself?
19:53And she put a lot of thought into it.
19:55I'd say she picked perfectly, yeah?
19:58I just helped the process.
20:00She did everything.
20:02I mean, I guess she does know us pretty well.
20:07Honestly, you chose to make something with such a short shelf life.
20:10To what end?
20:11It's too late for sweets, but while it's fresh, I'll humor you.
20:15Oh, that's good.
20:17Hey, Kazuki.
20:18Look, mine's fancy. Way more than yours.
20:20Imbecile. Proper presentation oft demands balance.
20:24Excess decor looks go, Shadbass.
20:27She obviously spent more time working on mine!
20:30Does that mean nothing to you?
20:31Yet mine still yields superior results!
20:34The flavor, presentation, and color are perfectly synced!
20:37On mine!
20:37Could you not turn our peace offering into a declaration of war?
20:44Hey, you.
20:45Yeah?
20:46I just wanted to say sorry for making you do all this for my sake.
20:52Here.
20:52What? For me?
20:55But when did you find the time?
20:57Well, thanks a ton.
21:00Oh, it looks just like him!
21:02Oh, you decorated a marshmallow with chocolate.
21:07Wait, something's not right here.
21:09Why is this hairline messed up?
21:11How odd. It is receding.
21:13Huh.
21:19Oh, man.
21:20Is my hair really that thin?
21:24Regardless, this awkward appearance does suit you.
21:28Quit staring and just shove that stupid marshmallow in your mouth hole!
21:31Oh, I'm sorry!
21:33What did we do to make her angry this time?
21:35Oh, I'm sorry!
21:35What did we do to make her angry this time?
22:01Oh, I'm sorry!
22:06Oh, I'm sorry!
22:08Oh, I'm sorry!
