1
Oh, there he is! Over here!
2

Kohane

Listen

It's rare for you to arrive last, Shinonome.
3

Toya

Listen

Yes, you're usually here first out of everyone to practice on your own.
4

Akito

Listen

I was going to today too, but a few things came up...
5
You being vague like that is just as strange.
6

Akito

Listen

I know.
7

Akito

Listen

(I was gonna do this after practice, but I guess now also works...)
8

Akito

Listen

Sorry, but there's something I need to ask you guys regarding tomorrow...
9

Kohane

Listen

Tomorrow? Is this about our meeting at COL?
10

Akito

Listen

I may run a little late.
11

Kohane

Listen

Umm... That should be fine, since all we're going to talk about tomorrow is flyers and advertising.
12

Toya

Listen

Right. Honestly, only Azusawa and I absolutely need to be there.
13
Yeah. I'm just there to check over the equipment, so you don't necessarily have to be there.
14

Akito

Listen

Hey, I'm a part of the team, so I should be there if I can...
15

Toya

Listen

Okay...
16

Toya

Listen

Then, be sure to let us know if you're going to be late. I'll relay that to the owner.
17

Akito

Listen

Okay, thanks.
18
Still, it is kinda weird to see you asking a favor of us like this.
19

Kohane

Listen

Does it have to do with why you arrived late today?
20

Akito

Listen

Yeah...
The thing is...
21

Toya

Listen

You're participating in a disc dog competition?!
22
Whoa!
Not so loud, Toya.
23

Toya

Listen

I-I'm sorry.
I couldn't contain my surprise.
24

Kohane

Listen

Hehe. Yeah, I'm just as surprised.
I can't believe you're taking that owner's place after just meeting him.
25

Akito

Listen

(No, that's not what Toya was talking about.)
26
But I kinda get why you feel like you need to compete in his place.
27
You said Max is this guy's partner, right?
28

Akito

Listen

Yeah...

29

Owner

Our dream is to become the number one team in the country!
30

Owner

Right, partner?!
31

Max

Woof!

Sound Effect: Play

32

Akito

Listen

I've been seeing them work really hard towards making their dream come true.
33

Akito

Listen

So I felt that I had to do this.
34

Kohane

Listen

Hehe. That's so nice of you, Shinonome.
35

Akito

Listen

I just couldn't leave things be.
36
Haha! That's what it means to be a nice person.
37

Akito

Listen

Again, that wasn't my intent...
38

Toya

Listen

Still, Akito, are you sure about this...?
I mean, you and dogs don't really...
39

Akito

Listen

Yeah, I'd be lying if I said I'm sure...
40

Akito

Listen

But like I said, Kamishiro and a few others have agreed to lend me a hand.
41

Akito

Listen

So, I plan on keeping my commitment.
42

Toya

Listen

I see...
43

Toya

Listen

In that case, Akito, you focus on the competition. We'll handle the meeting.
44

Akito

Listen

Thanks.
45
Oh, since you're doing this, it'd be great to cheer you on until we have to go to that meeting. Can we come watch?
46

Akito

Listen

Not. A. Chance.
47
Boo...
48

Toya

Listen

I'd like to show my support as well, but I'd rather not have us run late...
49

Kohane

Listen

I'm sure he'll be fine since Minori and the others are gonna be there with him. We should focus on what we have to do.
50
Fine...
51

Akito

Listen

Sorry for taking up so much time...
Anyway, let's start practicing.
52

Toya

Listen

Right.
53

Kohane & An

Listen

Yeah!
Okay!
54

Akito

Listen

Then, let's get started!
