Catcher!
Okay, next pitch!
Yes, go! One more!
Run, run, run!
Nice throw. Quick, first base!
That's right, one more! Go on, son!
Catch!
What are you doing, Takuya?
S... s... snow. First snow of the year.
Right.
Come on.
You'll get told off by Coach again.
MY SUNSHINE
Concentrate!
Get after it!
Go after them! Hurry!
Motion to make sure, defense!
Don't hit me, cover me. Spike the ball
Nice one!
Lift your heads!
Come on, change sides.
That's good, keep it up.
No, it's not. Fast.
Get back!
- Stop him! - Goalkeeper!
Concentrate.
Never mind.
Come on, don't give up.
Get after it!
Follow me. Come on. You got a chance.
Fast. Defense.
- Hold on, quick-fight! - Fight!
It's a goal!
Are you all right, Takuya?
Was it the puck?
Yeah, full-on!
Coach, Takuya's down.
Already?
Are you okay?
Never mind.
Takuya, get over here!
Swap.
Yes, check, check!
Shoot!
Nice, goalie!
Nice pass.
Very good.
They just kept scoring.
Yep.
We shouldn't have lost like that.
You should be able to save more goals.
You’ll be able to hold some offense.
Why don't you-be goalie, then?
No way! It's basically a punishment.
You shouldn't say that.
Whose is this?
Mine.
Cold!
Hey.
Hey!
Someone's calling you.
Come on, Takuya, let's go heme.
S... s... sorry.
What were you doing?
Making it cold.
What?
Here.
You lose energy in part of the routine.
You should speed up a little after the spiral.
Fill up that gap.
Let's go again from just before the spiral.
What are you doing?
Missed! Oops
I w... wish...
that the snow would melt.
Why?
Then we can go back to playing baseball.
You’re no better at baseball than you are at ice hockey!
That's true.
Takuya.
You were looking at the girls.
What? No, I wasn’t.
I wasn't! Yes you were!
Not at all!
- Are you okay? - Yes.
You were looking at them.
You were staring.
- When? - Just now.
- Not now! - Okay, just then!
- No, wasn't. - You were totally staring.
I don't think I was staring.
I knew you were.
Just admit it.
There's no need to be embarrassed.
You know, Mr Arakawa...
is kind of cute.
Do you think so?
Don't you?
You're just used to looking at him.
He's different to everybody else in this town.
Oh
I had no idea that he coached.
Was it your decision?
No, my mum made me.
Oh
My mum saw him on TV, apparently.
On the satellite channel.
Oh
He was a coach in Tokyo for a while.
I wonder why he ended up coming here.
She's very determined.
Yes, she is.
I see real progress.
- All thanks to you. - No, no.
- She never tells me anything. - Really?
Let's go home.
Your eyes seem so true
My heart is feeling in blue
And after all you're just a friend of mine
As I was such a fool
To think I could be cool
It took much time to know you're just a friend of mine
Keep coming, keep coming...
and stop.
- Fill her up with super. - Super, okay.
Good evening, Mr Boss Man!
Shut up!
Did you fix that nozzle?
The one you said was broken.
Oh, yeah. Maybe a week ago.
Wipe this area clean.
Yes, I'm wiping it! Look!
- Your ashtray. - Thanks.
- So that's 54 liters of super. - Okay.
Keep coming, keep coming...
and stop.
Is that you, Kai?
When did you get back?
It's been 6 months already.
- Really? - Yes.
Your mother must be happy.
Yeah.
Are you married now?
No, no.
Super, was it? Yeah, thanks.
Should I clear the windshield? No
Monaka, dinner time! Let's have dinner.
Is it snowing?
Yeah, a bit.
You should feed her after you've eaten.
But she's hungry now.
Getting seconds? Yeah, I'll do it.
Your left hand, Takuya.
Why are you eating like that?
Are you hurt?
I got hit by the p... puck.
The puck? At ice hockey?
The season's only just started.
I suppose you're the goalie again.
Do you need some ice?
It's all right. I did that earlier.
You should just dodge it.
I can't dodge the puck!
Ouch!
This is the smell of spring
The smell of a new beginning
The smell of a new skin
The new smell of something new.
Winter has come to an end,
and preparations for the new season commence.
What do you think "beginning" and "skin" refer to?
Think about it, we'll discuss it later. Okay..
Yoshida, your turn. Yes.
Within these smells
Hopes, dreams, and bliss
Seem to hover.
Confined within...
Okay, stop there.
It's one stanza each, so stop at "Seem to hover".
OK
Okay, next.
Tada, your turn.
You can take your time.
OK
C... c... confined within the crowd
Something worries me
My heart is r... r... r...
A long night is like a losing game
I nearly have lost even my name
A long night is like a losing game
- Hello. - Hello.
Not with your face first.
Your whole body.
Don't force the turn.
Show me your jumping pose.
Very good. Nice and strong.
Tighten it all here. Yes, like that.
Stationary
Loosen your shoulders, elbows high. Loosen the shoulders.
Eyes up. Don't look down.
- That's it. Okay. - Okay.
They've gone all soft!
Told you so.
I nearly got them right.
Just a bit less next time.
What are you looking for?
Bye bye. Bye bye.
See you.
- Thank you, sir. - Bye.
Are you okay?
Here you go.
I'm only lending these to you.
You can't spin with those hockey skates.
Do you know how to adjust them?
S... s... same as ice hockey skates?
That's right.
Th... th...
th... thank you.
Ha
Heavy!
- Then legs together. Go again. - Okay.
You're leaning to the right.
Remember, legs together.
- Thank you. - Bye.
Hockey skates don't have a toe pick,
not the same as hockey skates, right?
That's why you lose your balance when you lean forward.
That's it.
Let’s start by just skating.
(The rink is closed for the day)
Maintain your posture.
Look straight ahead.
Copy me.
Straight ahead.
Don't lean forward, don't lean back-
Right here is good.
Right there.
Tighten your core.
Stay like that.
Maintain it, no wobbling.
Don't walk.
Slowly. It doesn't need to be any faster.
Right
You're leaning like a hockey player.
Chin up!
- Hold both ends and keep it taut. - Okay.
There, less wobble.
Girls don't fancy wobbly guys.
No wobbling!
Don't wobble!
The hockey player's here again! We want posture.
You're leaning forward again.
- You're still leaning forward. - It hurts.
Hold it like this.
You're carrying a bowl of miso soup.
Cup noodles right in the middle.
Ready? Let's go.
No spilling! No spilling!
The moon shines...
the moon shines while you skate.
Copy me.
Big movements.
Okay.
That's it.
- Now try doing that while you skate. - Okay
While skating.
Hold your posture.
Yes
Nice and big.
Ready?
Copy me.
Slowly.
Not great!
No, I'm joking.
You’ll get the hang of it by practicing.
And go.
That's it.
That's much better.
We're almost there. It just needs to click.
Oh
If he can stop focusing
on the act of skating itself,
we can work on steps and moves.
Practicing steps
is how you break in your skates.
Oh
What?
I haven't heard you talk
about skating like this for ages.
- Really? - Yeah.
But you seem happy. It's been a while.
Happy?
Spin, and check, and stop.
Now go for it. Good, good.
Takuya!
What are you doing?
Come-on, Wake up! Hurry!
Don't go skating over there.
Hurry!
And stop!
You'll catch cold.
Spin and check, spin and check,
jump and check.
Think about your next move.
Still leaning forward. No wobbling before a jump.
Yes
Maintain the check position.
Yes, yes, yes!
You did it!
Now you just have to land more smoothly.
Do that and it'll be perfect.
That's it.
Smoothly, smoothly!
You did it!
I did it!
Nailed it!
- You did it! - You did it!
You did it!
That was great!
Well done!
Is that a happy dance?
That was great!
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Who's that boy?
Who?
Tada?
Ice hockey team. He's not very good, though.
Why is he figure skating?
He was like:
"My name is Ta... Ta... Tada... Ta... Ta... Takuya."
Who knew he was saying his surname at the same time?
I didn't realize he actually said his last name.
It's great. I've got it all figured out.
Were you skating by yourself?
N... n... no. With the coach.
Is he still teaching you?
We're not paying him for any of these classes, though.
He doesn't care about that.
That's not the point.
If you're going to learn, then you have to commit. Right?
Yeah.
You've got to choose.
Choose? Ice hockey, obviously.
It's only until the snow melts, anyway.
That was nice, thanks.
Ta... Ta... Takuya, you choose whichever one you like.
Whichever.
Th... th... think about it.
Okay.
SKATE EYE
ARAKAWA HISASHI
It's freezing!
What's that?
You left them out.
Stop it, it's embarrassing!
Hisashi Arakawa!
- Now you're teasing me. - Not at all
I wish I'd met Hisashi the athlete.
Why?
Look at how cool you were.
No, never to Beethoven.
What, then?
Clair de Lune.
Which one's that?
Oh, right, I remember.
Come and dance, dance with me...
Oh, wow!
No, give it back, just a bit longer!
No! Go and get changed.
That's enough.
Skate Eye
A guide to ice dancing pairs in the world!
So let's try ice dancing.
Takuya here will be your partner.
I was able to compete internationally
because there were so few male skaters.
There are a lot of talented girls,
but at ice dancing you can be Japan's best.
- That... - Huh?
I'm not aiming to be the best ice dancer.
It'll help you compete as a single skater.
Skating is ice dancing's core.
If you want to jump higher,
let's start ever with the basics.
All right?
Okay.
All right, Takuya?
Then it's decided.
We start tomorrow.
Here we go!
Wow!
That's easy.
Cool.
Right?
Now show me a spin.
I can't do a spin with all this snow.
It's impossible.
You can't?
Yes
What's it called, what you just did?
A three jump.
Oh
A three jump.
Have you told Coach?
Yeah.
Okay.
Work hard at it, then.
OK... OK
I will.
So...
I might try being the goalie.
Why not?
It's ready.
Hello?
This is the first preliminary dance:
the Dutch waltz.
This is the first hurdle.
If you can't master this, you can't compete.
Okay?
Yes.
The next tournament is in a month.
We'll do what we can until then.
The next one is a while after that.
Don't be afraid of making mistakes.
And go.
Left.
Right.
Left, right.
And cross.
Swing, and cross.
Go on!
Cross.
Swing.
Cross.
Good.
Don't lose Takuya, keep him in sight.
- Sakura, don't lose Takuya. - Okay.
Again
Swing.
Cross.
And turn left.
Right.
Keep your partner in mind, you're a pair.
You have to work together.
Okay.
Let's work on holds.
Takuya, put your hand on Sakura's hip.
Hold her right about here.
- Sakura, you place your hand above his, - Yes.
just like that.
Takuya, your hand.
Hold your hand out.
Sakura, put yours on top.
There, that's it.
A bit closer.
Just a wee bit. Good.
Is that Takuya?
You'll need to hold this position for yesterday's steps.
Okay?
Right
They're holding like this! Yes.
That's really good.
Takuya!
This is a swing dance
seen from above. Okay?
This is where you start. Over there.
Left, right, left, right, chassé, chassé.
Swing, swing.
Follow this and you'll be okay.
Good, good.
Swing.
Match your feet, that's it.
Match the angle and the height of your free legs.
Better, much better. You're improving.
Yes.
There you go!
That's it, Takuya, nice and sturdy.
You want to impress Sakura...
don't you?
No giggling!
- Hey! - Yes.
Now do it. Stop being embarrassed!
- Two - Right
You need to be in sync.
Three.
However it goes, high five at the end.
Okay!
Okay, let's go.
- The Dutch waltz. - Okay.
And go.
One, two, three, two, two, three,
three, two, three, four, two, three...
Ride through the curve.
Match your feet, match them. That's it, that's it!
There you go!
Control your speed.
And ride it. Yes!
There you go, ride it out. Nice.
Be careful with your timing. Sense your partner.
That's it!
And swing.
Very good.
Now reduce speed and ride it all in one go. Ride it.
Ride it.
Ride it, ride it. Good.
Now maintain that speed.
And look at the crowd.
That's it.
Takuya!
What was that?
What was that surprise wobbly ending?
Did you see yourself?
Who's hungry?
Me!
There, before it gets cold.
Yes!
Pork buns, yeah!
Pork buns!
Thank you.
Still warm.
Nice and toasty.
Really warm.
Pork bun.
Let's dig in!
Choose some music, Takuya.
Really?
Which one should I choose?
This one.
Need a hand?
There.
Nice choice.
Look! Isn't it great?
We'll train here today.
Let's go!
- Come on, Sakura. - Okay.

Tired?
Yeah.
Is Takuya asleep?
He's a hard worker. He's made a lot of progress.
Part of that is thanks to you.
Shall we do it together?
Y... y... yeah.
Prepare
- One, two... - Okay.
Swing
OK
Did you confirm that it turned into water?
Just look at this chart.
So, my question is:
why does our breath come out white in the winter?
- Sir! - I know!
Anybody?
You stink of petrol.
Can't be helped.
Get changed when you get home.
Go and get your own.
Aren't you going to be late?
Nope, it's my day off.
Thank you.
Why are you sitting in the back?
I'm not your chauffeur.
Your competition is next week, right?
Will that boy be up to it?
Why put so much energy into it with a beginner?
It'd better not turn out to have all been for nothing.
And stretch.
You’ve become flexible.
Foot straight up.
And stretch.
That's it.
Give me your hand.
Takuya.
Come on, push through it.
Keep your body straight.
That's not it.
Just one more. Stretch, come on!
Okay. Next.
Sakura.
What's wrong?
Coach.
Huh?
Do you prefer Takuya?
Huh?
Do you like getting a boy to do a girls' sports?
What are you saying?
Disgusting.
Excuse me, do you know how long Ms Mikami will be?
- I've been trying to reach her. - Yes
How many are left to perform?
- There are three pairs left. - Three pairs?
I might have to ask you to change the order.
Bring us...
- Adjust to the last group? - Yes.
Maybe if you go last,
that will be in about 30 or 40 minutes.
- You can go last, then. - Okay.
Is she on her way?
I can't get through.
I see.
She should be here.
Anyway, you'll be going last.
Right. Sorry about all this.
Takuya.
Everybody's gone.
Let's go.
I s... suppose
she really d... didn't want to.
Sorry this is all so last minute.
If she wants to go back to single skating,
I can go back to coaching her at that.
I don't think that's the issue.
What is the issue?
I would like my daughter to continue ice skating.
So, if you could stay away from her.
I don't mean that in a nasty way.
This month's fees.
Well, you must be busy, so I'll be going.
Huddle up!
It's okay.
You're warming up?
OK?
I want you to be serious today,
not like last time.
Yes!
Basic skating training and then shooting practice.
I want you to work independently
and concentrate on your weak spots.
Understood? Yes!
Get to it, then!
You know.
I think I envied him...
being so deeply in love.
So sincerely.
Sincerely?
Yeah.
And we're not sincerely in love, is that it?
That's not what I meant.
Do you...
Should you have come here?
Of course.
I can be a coach anywhere.
Well, not anywhere.
You have no one left to teach here, right?
Right.
You know...
when my dad died,
I decided to take over his business.
I can't leave this place.
But you can.
Do you want to be here?
I get it.
Let's go to sleep.
It suits you.
Y... y... you think so? It's too big.
You'll grow into it.
How've you been?
G... g... good.
Did you get your hair cut?
A bit.
And baseball? Are you getting any better?
S... s... sort of.
Really?
Yeah.
It's all thawed.
You're pretty good.
Are you going somewhere?
Will you be back?
I don’t know about that.
I'm sorry, Takuya.
I'll give you your skates back
They're a present.
Thank you.
