Post by bunniefuu »

CRKuro: ,Kuroko Episode “I Believe”

RIKO: No way!

RIKO: Imayoshi's on Kuroko-kun?!

IMAYOSHI: Did you know?

IMAYOSHI: Some things can only be seen from behind the mirror.

IZUKI: A three!

IZUKI: Hyuga!

HYUGA: I'll return the favor. Take this!

TSUCHIDA: The Barrier Jumper!

KOGANEI: Did he predict it?!

HYUGA: Touou's got this, too.

HYUGA: A defense that combines Momoi's projections and data.

KIYOSHI: Damn it. Their offense is strong enough...

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

ScoreboardL,IMAYOSHI: Seirin

ScoreboardR,IMAYOSHI: TououAcademy

IMAYOSHI: Your misdirection trump card has run out of steam, too.

IMAYOSHI: Spirit alone won't change anything.

IZUKI: That's not quite right.

IZUKI: It didn't run out.

IZUKI: We made it run out.

IMAYOSHI: What?

IMAYOSHI: He disappeared!

RIKO: He didn't disappear, he was erased.

RIKO: It's a technique that can only be used when Kuroko-kun's misdirection runs out.

RIKO: Misdirection Overflow!

MIDORIMA: That technique likely carries several risks.

MIDORIMA: What Kuroko is doing is like performing a trick while showing how it's done.

MIDORIMA: In other words, once this game ends,

CRKuro: ,he won't be able to use his misdirection against Touou again.

KUROKO: It's still

KUROKO: better than losing here.

WAKAMATSU: He combined it with Kuroko's Overflow!

SAKURAI: It's not that he's fast!

SAKURAI: I feel like time just skipped forward!

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

KUROKO: We'll worry about the future when we get there.

AOMINE: Tetsu...

EpTitle,EPTITLE: Episode I Believe

KISE: He made the shot.

KASAMATSU: They took back the points they lost already.

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

KAGAMI: I can't stop him.

KAGAMI: Damn it! We're not closing the gap.

KAGAMI: What should we do?

KAGAMI: How can we stop him?

HYUGA: Don't worry about it. Let's shift gears.

KAGAMI: But...

HYUGA: You've been able to stay on that monster

CRKuro: ,as much as you have because of who you are.

HYUGA: They can't stop you, either.

HYUGA: We'll take

CRKuro: ,three points at a time.

AUDIENCE: A three!

SAKURAI: He's not afraid of missing at all.

SAKURAI: Can he trust his own shots that much?

HYUGA: Yeah, I believe...

HYUGA: I believe in my teammates!

HYUGA: I'm not sh**ting because I won't miss.

HYUGA: I'm sh**ting because it's okay even if I do!

KOGANEI: He made the shot!

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

SAKURAI: He's been making three after three against me.

SAKURAI: I'll get those points back!

SAKURAI: Go!

IMAYOSHI: Sakurai!

IMAYOSHI: It's no good. His rhythm is off.

AOMINE: Getting flustered just because they closed the gap a little... {CRIPES!}

AOMINE: Give me the ball!

KAGAMI: No, you don't!

KAGAMI: What?!

KIYOSHI: Crap! It's a fake!

AUDIENCE: He drew a foul while making the shot, which means...

REFEREE: Pushing, white No. !

REFEREE: Basket counts!

REFEREE: One throw!

HYUGA: It counted.

IZUKI: It's a three-point play.

IMAYOSHI: Touou emphasizes individual skill,

IMAOYSHI: but we believe in something, too.

IMAYOSHI: It's

CRKuro: ,Aomine's strength.

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

TAKAO: They're ten points behind again.

KUROKO: Kagami-kun, Kiyoshi-senpai,

CRKuro: ,do you have a minute?

FURIHATA: Damn it! The gap isn't getting smaller!

FUKUDA: What are we supposed to do?!

KISE: This is...

KASAMATSU: They're triple-teaming him.

TAKAO: Seirin's challenging him!

MIDORIMA: Aomine is not just terrifying because of his speed or skill.

MIDORIMA: The true nuisance is his overwhelming sh**ting power

CRKuro: ,that allows him to make shots from any position.

MIDORIMA: Even Kagami's acquisition of animal instincts hasn't allowed them to stop him.

MIDORIMA: While Seirin's offensive power has increased,

CRKuro: ,they will never close the gap in a shootout.

MIDORIMA: If they can't stop Aomine, Seirin has no chance of winning.

WAKAMATSU: They're triple-teaming him?

SUSA: Are they for real?

SUSA: They don't even intend to let him pass!

IMAYOSHI: Passing isn't an option for Aomine in the first place.

IMAYOSHI: It's the simplest and most effective solution.

IMAYOSHI: However...

IMAYOSHI: That's not enough.

KIYOSHI: He's going sideways?!

KUROKO: Kagami-kun, Kiyoshi-senpai,

CRKuro: ,do you have a minute? {Obviously they have lots of time to have a conversation in the middle of this game since it's GOING ON FOREVER}

KUROKO: I'll stop Aomine-kun.

KUROKO: Lend me your strength.

KIYOSHI: You want to triple-team him?

KIYOSHI: I'm not sure even three of us can stop Aomine now.

KUROKO: I know.

KUROKO: That's why I want Kagami-kun to let him past at first.

SAKURAI: They let him past on purpose!

WAKAMATSU: This is what they were after!

WAKAMATSU: They're blocking from his blind spot!

KISE: He dodged it!

PLAYERS: He made it!

IMAYOSHI: That's impossible. Aomine...

IMAYOSHI: He missed from there?!

AOMINE: Tetsu...

AOMINE: You b*stard.

IMAYOSHI: Could it be?

IMAYOSHI: Did he make him miss?

KUROKO: Stopping Aomine-kun now is probably impossible.

KUROKO: When he shoots, I'll draw his attention away from the hoop

CRKuro: ,for a moment using my Overflow.

KIYOSHI: That can't be enough.

KUROKO: It would probably have hardly any effect on a normal shot.

KUROKO: However, aiming for the hoop while moving at high speed is a different story.

KUROKO: The faster he's going, the more effective a moment of distraction will be.

KUROKO: As long as you two push Aomine-kun to the limit...

IMAYOSHI: I had no idea he could use his Overflow like this.

IMAYOSHI: He can misdirect

CRKuro: ,his opponent's attention away from the hoop, as well.

IMAYOSHI: It's a type of misdirection that decreases the accuracy of high-speed shots.

KUROKO: I can't stop you,

CRKuro: ,but Seirin will not lose.

AOMINE: You've really done it now, Tetsu.

KOGANEI: We're six points behind!

HYUGA: Don't pull back! Meet them head on!

IMAYOSHI: What?!

MIDORIMA: It's a zone press.

TAKAO: And it's ---!

KISE: It's a high-level formation that makes steals easy but is weak once broken through.

KISE: Why are they doing this now?

KASAMATSU: This is the only time to do it.

KASAMATSU: Seirin can smell the moment of truth.

SEIRIN: Defense! Defense! Defense!

SEIRIN: Defense! Defense! Defense!

WAKAMATSU: This pressure is crazy!

REFEREE: Pushing, black No. !

TAKAO: A defensive foul on a three-pointer...

MIDORIMA: Three free throws.

KASAMATSU: If he makes all of them...

KISE: It'll be a three point gap.

HYUGA: All right!

SEIRIN: Yeah!

SEIRIN: All right!

AOMINE: Hey, Ryo.

SAKURAI: Yes!

SAKURAI: Uh, I'm sorry! Sorry!

AOMINE: Good timing.

AOMINE: Switch to rebounding after this.

KAGAMI: Aomine's not part of the setup?

AOMINE: Since when

AOMINE: did I start yawning as I left home on days I have games?

Touou,SCORE: Touou Academy

AOMINE: Since when did I stop feeling anything when I won?

AOMINE: I just wanted an opponent I could face with everything I had.

AOMINE: I've been longing for one.

AOMINE: A game so close I'm not sure if I'll win or lose...

AOMINE: Thanks, Tetsu.

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

KOGANEI: He made all three!

FUKUDA: We're three points behind! Three points!

KISE: No way...

KISE: That's impossible.

MIDORIMA: Is he

CRKuro: ,in the Zone?

NARRATION: The Zone.

NARRATION: In this state of extreme focus, all unnecessary thoughts disappear

CRKuro: ,and the athlete becomes absorbed in his play.

NARRATION: Only those who have practiced and practiced

CRKuro: ,earn the right to stand before the door,

CRKuro: ,and it only opens unpredictably.

NARRATION: It is the ultimate domain, open only to the chosen.

NARRATION: However, Aomine's senses almost mockingly force the door open on their own.

MURASAKI: We've never seen this before, either.

AKASHI: This is

AKASHI: Aomine's true form.

HYUGA: Crap! He's reacting so fast!

TAKAO: This isn't even funny.

TAKAO: He's a monster!

MIDORIMA: Normally it is impossible to play at % of your potential during a game.

MIDORIMA: Even a highly focused top-tier player reaches his limit at %.

MIDORIMA: However, being in the Zone makes that impossible % a possibility.

MIDORIMA: Furthermore, Aomine's % is a total unknown.

MIDORIMA: He seems twice as fast as usual.

KIYOSHI: Ridiculous.

KIYOSHI: The two of them could hardly respond at all.

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

HYUGA: Don't give up!

HYUGA: There are five more minutes!

HYUGA: We'll hang on, even if it kills us!

TSUCHIDA: They're amazing!

KAWAHARA: They're still determined!

IMAYOSHI: We knew from the beginning they wouldn't give up now.

IMAYOSHI: Even so...

AOMINE: Good.

AOMINE: That's how it should be!

IMAYOSHI: Aomine is the strongest!

KASAMATSU: His Overflow isn't reducing the accuracy of those shots anymore.

KASAMATSU: He doesn't have anything left to stop Aomine.

ScoreboardL: ,Seirin

ScoreboardR: ,TououAcademy

KAGAMI: Senpai, I need a favor.

HYUGA: Huh?

KAGAMI: Let me go

CRKuro: ,one-on-one with Aomine.

KOGANEI: One-on-one?

KOGANEI: Three of you couldn't stop that monster.

KOGANEI: Do you have some kind of plan?

KAGAMI: No.

KAGAMI: But I'll do it.

KAGAMI: I have no intention of beating the Generation of Miracles alone now.

KAGAMI: If it'd help the team win, I'd happily be benched.

KAGAMI: But I have to face him alone.

AOMINE: I'll never find what I'm looking for.

AOMINE: The only one who can beat me is me.

HYUGA: Fine.

HYUGA: You have two minutes.

HYUGA: You're the ace.

HYUGA: Do what you want.

KAGAMI: Captain...

HYUGA: In the meantime, we'll go at them with everything we have.

HYUGA: It's all on you, Kagami.

KASAMATSU: Aomine and Kagami...

KISE: They're going one-on-one?

IMAYOSHI: They're leaving it up to their ace now?

IMAYOSHI: They don't seem out of their minds, though.

AOMINE: Are you trying to prove yourself my equal?

AOMINE: You can't do it.

AOMINE: I told you.

AOMINE: Your light is too dim!

AUDIENCE: He made it!

TAKAO: It's no use.

TAKAO: He's useless against him.

KAGAMI: More...

KAGAMI: More!

HYUGA: We won't lose.

HYUGA: Let's take it back!

BOTH: Misdirection Overflow!

IZUKI: Our timing was off?!

IZUKI: No! The Overflow's effectiveness is starting to run out!

HYUGA: Crap! If the ball goes out now...

KUROKO: It's not over yet!

WAKAMATSU: What?!

RIKO: Kuroko-kun!

KIYOSHI: Hyuga!

KUROKO: I can't let you pull away now.

KUROKO: An ace carrying his teammates' wishes cannot lose.

KUROKO: I believe in Kagami-kun.

SEIRIN: Defense! Defense! Defense!

SEIRIN: Defense! Defense! Defense!

KAGAMI: Damn it!

ScoreboardL,SCORE: Seirin

ScoreboardR,SCORE: Touou Academy

KAGAMI: Damn it, why?

KAGAMI: Why am I so weak?

KAGAMI: We have to win.

KAGAMI: I don't want to lose anymore.

KAGAMI: I don't want it

CRKuro: ,to end here.

KAGAMI: I'm sick of it.

KAGAMI: I'm

CRKuro: ,sick of seeing my friends cry!

KAGAMI: If I can't do it now,

CRKuro: ,when will I do it?!

IMAYOSHI: What?

IMAYOSHI: That's impossible. {You keep using that word...}

IMAYOSHI: He reacted to Aomine in the Zone?

IMAYOSHI: That's not...

RIKO: Is Kagami-kun also...

AOMINE: I take back what I said, Kagami.

AOMINE: You're the best!

Preview,KUROKO: Preview

KUROKO: Kagami-kun's in the Zone, too.

MOMOI: I can't believe this turned into a battle of two players in the Zone.

KUROKO: Since this summer's loss, we've risen back up.

MOMOI: Tetsu-kun...

KUROKO: I believe in Kagami-kun.

Next EpTitle,TEXT: I Won't Lose

KUROKO: I believe in Seirin's victory!
