WEBVTT 00:01.873 --> 00:04.633 It's been a year since my first competition, 00:04.713 --> 00:07.593 and now I'm at my second Meikoh Cup. 00:30.073 --> 00:32.823 Yes! A double flip, double toe loop, and double loop. 00:32.903 --> 00:35.323 It's like she was born with that combo in her! 00:37.663 --> 00:42.203 Inori Yuitsuka's score is 58.19. 00:42.293 --> 00:44.963 She is currently in first place. 00:45.043 --> 00:46.293 Awesome! 00:46.383 --> 00:47.463 Right on! 00:52.763 --> 00:55.053 We will now commence the award ceremony 00:55.133 --> 00:57.683 for the Level Five Women's Free Skate. 00:58.183 --> 01:03.273 In first place, from Lux Higashiyama FSC, Inori Yuitsuka. 01:03.353 --> 01:04.353 Thank you. 01:05.483 --> 01:09.863 I entered the sixth grade and I passed my fifth Badge Test. 01:09.943 --> 01:14.073 Only one more level to go and then I can compete against Hikaru. 01:14.703 --> 01:17.073 Inori's really amazing, isn't she? 01:26.623 --> 01:27.753 That asshole. 01:29.843 --> 01:33.263 Hey, get out of Nagoya, you shit-for-brains. 01:33.343 --> 01:35.013 Leave Hikaru alone. 01:38.803 --> 01:41.973 You know Hikaru doesn't even need you, to become an Olympian, right? 01:42.063 --> 01:44.103 How dare you call yourself a coach! 01:44.183 --> 01:45.733 You don't even come to meets. 01:45.813 --> 01:49.273 So what's your deal? What are you getting out of coaching? 01:49.773 --> 01:51.733 It's obvious that you don't even wanna be here. 01:52.323 --> 01:54.693 You don't even love skating like my dad does. 01:59.113 --> 02:01.493 Hey! Don't ignore me! 02:01.583 --> 02:03.833 You're in Hikaru's way, you bastard! 02:03.913 --> 02:05.953 After you all but ran from skating! 02:15.963 --> 02:17.973 Do you need me to spell it out for you? 02:19.053 --> 02:21.303 You're reading Hikaru entirely wrong, 02:21.893 --> 02:24.563 which makes you the biggest thing in her way. 03:57.573 --> 03:59.823 HOWLING AT NIGHT 03:59.903 --> 04:02.493 A triple combo and a flying camel spin. 04:02.573 --> 04:06.743 It took a lot of intense training to jam all that in the last half of her program, 04:06.833 --> 04:08.623 but she really pushed herself. 04:08.703 --> 04:12.463 I'm honored to have gotten a front-row seat to all of Inori's progress this year. 04:13.043 --> 04:15.293 I can't wait to see it all again in the documentary! 04:15.383 --> 04:16.463 THE ROAD TO BECOMING A MEDALIST 04:17.423 --> 04:19.463 She only has one Badge Test to go. 04:19.553 --> 04:24.433 Once she reaches level six, she'll be able to compete in Novice A at the All-Japans. 04:24.513 --> 04:27.973 But getting to that next level is gonna be one heck of a challenge. 04:30.063 --> 04:33.693 Even athletes who started at the right time hit a wall at level six, 04:33.773 --> 04:37.613 and a lot of them give up. That wall is the Axel. 04:40.863 --> 04:44.573 Toe loop. Salchow. Loop. Flip. Lutz. 04:45.113 --> 04:48.743 Those are hard enough, but the final boss of jumps is the Axel. 04:48.833 --> 04:52.003 Lots of skaters quit because they can't master the double. 04:54.583 --> 04:57.173 I don't understand why I'm still not landing it. 05:01.593 --> 05:03.883 The first five jumps start backwards, 05:03.973 --> 05:07.143 but the Axel requires you to be facing forward at takeoff, 05:07.223 --> 05:09.433 meaning you have to add an extra half rotation 05:09.513 --> 05:12.143 to the spins you're already doing in order to land it. 05:14.733 --> 05:16.903 You wanna take a little break? Yes. 05:17.523 --> 05:18.903 For the athlete, though, 05:18.983 --> 05:22.693 the extra half rotation takes about the same power as a full rotation. 05:24.443 --> 05:26.863 Something occurred to me while I was practicing just now. 05:26.953 --> 05:28.323 About the double Axel? 05:28.413 --> 05:32.293 Instead of two-and-a-half rotations, it's more like three minus some. 05:32.373 --> 05:33.583 Sounds about right. 05:33.663 --> 05:37.583 Which is why an Axel will always feel so much harder than other jumps. 05:37.673 --> 05:39.383 Even when they all count as doubles. 05:39.883 --> 05:43.263 And I do feel like my approach is faster than it was before. 05:43.343 --> 05:45.263 It is. But the higher your speed, 05:45.343 --> 05:47.263 the greater your centrifugal force. 05:47.343 --> 05:48.553 What's that mean? 05:48.643 --> 05:51.723 Let's see. You know how when you get going on a teacup ride 05:51.813 --> 05:54.523 and it feels like you're getting pushed to the outside of the cup? 05:54.603 --> 05:57.563 Oh, yeah. And yet, if you stay in the center… 05:57.643 --> 05:59.023 Then you don't get pushed anywhere! 05:59.103 --> 06:00.693 Bingo! Sharp as always! 06:00.773 --> 06:02.733 To execute faster rotations, 06:02.823 --> 06:05.823 it's more important to focus on your axis rather than your velocity. 06:05.903 --> 06:07.783 Okay! I wanna try that! 06:10.203 --> 06:13.243 Look at her. She's so strong. 06:15.203 --> 06:17.753 Tsukasa! Uh, whatcha need? 06:17.833 --> 06:21.713 Nothing! It's lunch time! Let's go! Okay… 06:22.843 --> 06:24.213 Nice to meet you. 06:24.303 --> 06:26.013 Shinichiro Sonidori. 06:26.923 --> 06:28.973 And this here is my son Rioh. 06:29.553 --> 06:31.973 Surprise! 06:32.053 --> 06:34.933 He asked to meet, so I wanted to bring you along too, 06:35.023 --> 06:37.603 'cause I know you were a huge fan. 06:37.683 --> 06:40.853 The Olympian. The silver medalist. 06:40.943 --> 06:41.943 Yes. 06:42.023 --> 06:44.483 Though I'm here today as a parent, not a skater, 06:44.573 --> 06:46.233 and I hope that you can understand. 06:46.323 --> 06:48.453 Yes, sir! Of course, sir! I'm so sorry! 06:48.533 --> 06:52.533 Let me properly introduce you. This is our assistant coach, Mr. Aki… 06:53.453 --> 06:54.993 Aka… 06:55.083 --> 06:58.253 Oh… I'm Tsukasa Akeuraji. That's it. 06:58.333 --> 07:01.793 All these years and she still can't figure out how to say my last name. 07:02.713 --> 07:05.673 So, uh, what is it that brings you out here today? 07:06.213 --> 07:10.013 Right. My son has been concerned with his progress at Meikoh 07:10.093 --> 07:12.723 so he's interested in training with you at Lux Higashiyama. 07:12.803 --> 07:14.513 I told him he could for a week or two. 07:15.223 --> 07:19.273 What I actually want is to transfer there permanently. But Dad says I can't. 07:19.933 --> 07:21.983 Sounds like there's a story in there. 07:23.313 --> 07:24.863 Why is it that you wanna come to Lux? 07:25.483 --> 07:27.483 Mostly just 'cause Sota's there. 07:27.573 --> 07:29.283 Oh, are you buddies then? Yay! 07:29.363 --> 07:31.493 You haven't gotten to skate together since you were beginners, 07:31.573 --> 07:33.243 so I'm sure you miss him these days! 07:33.323 --> 07:36.413 I guess, but it doesn't really matter what club I join. 07:36.493 --> 07:39.503 Long as I can get away from that crabby old fart at Meikoh. 07:39.583 --> 07:41.463 Rioh! 07:42.043 --> 07:43.293 "Old fart"? 07:43.383 --> 07:45.633 He's obviously not talking about his dad. 07:46.503 --> 07:49.633 Does he mean… Jun Yodaka? 07:50.473 --> 07:54.013 I remember seeing that Sonidori is listed as Hikaru's coach, 07:54.093 --> 07:58.643 so… something's definitely weird here. 07:58.723 --> 08:01.563 Currently, all the other boys in my club are seniors. 08:01.643 --> 08:03.483 There's no one Rioh's age. 08:03.563 --> 08:05.273 So for the sake of his motivation, 08:05.363 --> 08:09.073 I thought it would be best if he skate with you for a while, Coach Takamine. 08:09.153 --> 08:12.153 Well, that's not a problem at all, we would love to have him. 08:12.243 --> 08:15.073 But would you mind if he works with Tsukasa instead? 08:15.163 --> 08:17.583 Huh? He's a little green. 08:17.663 --> 08:19.373 It's only his first year coaching. 08:19.453 --> 08:22.543 But he's already proven himself a great asset to the club. 08:22.623 --> 08:26.173 During his probation period, he took his very first student from Prelim 08:26.253 --> 08:28.593 all the way up to level five like that. 08:29.173 --> 08:31.423 If you want to see Rioh transform even a little, 08:31.513 --> 08:33.553 Coach Tsukasa is the man for the job. 08:34.183 --> 08:36.053 Right? Hey… 08:36.143 --> 08:37.433 That's all right by me. 08:37.513 --> 08:40.853 If he comes with your recommendation, Coach, I couldn't ask for more. 08:41.733 --> 08:43.103 So if you're on board… 08:43.183 --> 08:44.983 Oh, gosh! It would be my honor. 08:45.063 --> 08:46.103 Not him. 08:46.193 --> 08:48.113 Uh? 08:48.193 --> 08:50.943 I only want to be trained by the head coach. 'Kay? 08:51.033 --> 08:52.493 Rioh! Don't be rude! 08:52.573 --> 08:56.953 Hmm, well, if he doesn't want Tsukasa, that's that! 08:57.033 --> 08:59.033 I don't actually care. Do whatever. 08:59.703 --> 09:02.453 It's not like I have Dad's or Hikaru's talent anyway. 09:02.543 --> 09:06.253 Coach Akeuraji. Oh, yes, sir. 09:06.333 --> 09:08.003 No, no. Please. 09:12.173 --> 09:16.513 I apologize that my failings as an instructor now fall to you to remedy. 09:17.803 --> 09:21.353 Forgive me. I hope Rioh will flourish under you. 09:21.973 --> 09:26.853 An Olympic silver medalist is bowing to me. 09:27.983 --> 09:29.903 ICE SKATING RINK 09:31.983 --> 09:35.493 So starting today, we'll be doing group lessons for a little while! 09:35.573 --> 09:37.663 Say hello to Rioh Sonidori. 09:37.743 --> 09:39.413 He… 09:39.493 --> 09:41.703 I wasn't talking to you, you ugly shrimp! 09:44.043 --> 09:46.583 He'll be at training camp with you next week, too! 09:50.633 --> 09:51.923 Sota! 09:52.003 --> 09:54.213 Rioh! What's up? Why are you here? 09:55.053 --> 09:58.723 I got sick of Meikoh so I'm gonna be practicing with you guys for a while. 09:58.803 --> 10:01.513 What? That's awesome! Hey, you got your Switch? 10:01.603 --> 10:04.643 I do, but let's hurry up and get out on the ice! 10:07.813 --> 10:10.233 Sota, this is great! 10:10.313 --> 10:14.033 You'll definitely jump better if you keep your hands closer to your chest. 10:14.653 --> 10:18.363 His dad's right, he does look happy to be skating with another boy his age. 10:19.113 --> 10:20.323 He's having fun. 10:20.823 --> 10:23.123 You know, Rioh said he's in level five, too. 10:23.203 --> 10:24.543 Is he really? 10:26.003 --> 10:27.003 FRIEND RADAR 10:27.083 --> 10:29.043 You slow yourself down, otherwise. 10:29.123 --> 10:30.293 Yeah, I'll give it a shot. 10:30.383 --> 10:32.753 So, Rioh. Hey, Inori. 10:32.843 --> 10:36.383 A little birdie told me we're both in level five. 10:36.463 --> 10:38.763 We should be friend-- Uh, who are you? 10:39.553 --> 10:41.803 Inori Yuitsuka. 10:48.853 --> 10:50.023 Wow! 10:50.733 --> 10:54.273 A beautiful double Axel with a smooth extension on the landing. 10:54.863 --> 10:56.653 The elegance of that check pose makes me think 10:56.733 --> 10:59.533 he definitely got his dad's flexible ankles. 11:00.113 --> 11:01.323 How can you tell? 11:01.413 --> 11:03.283 Well, I watched him a lot. 11:03.373 --> 11:06.293 I was kinda obsessed with him in middle school. 11:06.373 --> 11:07.373 DISTANCE HEIGHT 11:07.453 --> 11:10.373 But they are different. Coach Sonidori's rotations rely on a higher jump 11:10.463 --> 11:12.293 with a super precise axis, 11:12.383 --> 11:14.343 whereas Rioh's all about range. 11:14.883 --> 11:18.263 Either way, that was clean, though I bet Rioh could get a tighter spin 11:18.343 --> 11:21.383 if he works on establishing his axis just a little earlier. 11:24.643 --> 11:28.023 That was amazing, Rioh. You can do a double Axel. 11:28.733 --> 11:31.143 It's whatever. 11:31.233 --> 11:32.603 Huh? 11:32.693 --> 11:35.193 If I can't do a triple at this point, I'm wasting my time. 11:35.273 --> 11:37.733 What? Why do you need a triple? 11:37.823 --> 11:41.453 Part of the men's level six Badge Test is doing a triple-double combination, 11:41.533 --> 11:43.413 and if you can't do it, they don't pass you. 11:43.493 --> 11:45.413 Really? Is that true? 11:45.493 --> 11:48.913 Don't act like we're the same just because we're both in level five right now. 11:49.003 --> 11:50.713 Men's skating is harder than women's, 11:50.793 --> 11:53.503 and we're allowed to compete in Novice A from level four. 11:54.003 --> 11:56.043 I see. I didn't know. 11:56.133 --> 12:00.303 Well, in that case, I take it the next big milestone for you is passing level six. 12:00.883 --> 12:01.883 Hmm? 12:01.973 --> 12:03.803 Then we still have the same goal. 12:10.563 --> 12:13.523 Rioh! That really was a beautiful jump earlier. 12:13.603 --> 12:17.573 Yeah, yeah. "It's just like Shinichiro Sonidori's," I know. 12:17.653 --> 12:18.983 I've heard that a million times… No, 12:19.073 --> 12:21.113 it's a totally different jump from your dad's! 12:21.193 --> 12:22.363 Wha-- 12:22.453 --> 12:23.453 HEIGHT 12:23.533 --> 12:26.623 When it comes to your dad, he's got a high jump with a really tall vertical. 12:26.703 --> 12:29.993 But you luxuriate in a long jump and cover a ton of distance, 12:30.083 --> 12:31.373 which is awesome. 12:31.453 --> 12:34.753 I was also really impressed how smoothly you can adjust your stance in midair. 12:34.833 --> 12:37.253 That must have taken a lot of trial and error to figure out, 12:37.343 --> 12:39.503 and it really paid off! 12:39.593 --> 12:43.343 And on top of that, all the angles in your check pose are great! 12:43.423 --> 12:45.393 That commitment to detail is a beaut. 12:45.473 --> 12:48.513 It's not enough to explain your skills in terms that are purely physical! 12:48.603 --> 12:51.273 I just know you're gonna become an incredible athlete! 12:53.853 --> 12:56.603 This grown-ass adult is complimenting me so much. 12:56.693 --> 12:57.773 I'm so happy. 12:59.483 --> 13:03.443 But… …I don't feel like I can fully accept any of this. 13:03.533 --> 13:05.413 Like… what if someone sees… It takes a lot of effort… 13:05.493 --> 13:07.203 how it's affecting me? 13:08.163 --> 13:10.793 You're reading Hikaru entirely wrong. 13:10.873 --> 13:12.953 You're the biggest thing in her way. 13:15.043 --> 13:18.003 "Incredible athlete"… What? 13:18.083 --> 13:22.263 Do you realize how many boys my age have already blown way past level six? 13:23.013 --> 13:26.343 With my pedigree, I should have managed it a long time ago. 13:26.433 --> 13:27.973 Oh. I don't think-- 13:28.053 --> 13:30.473 Yeah, obviously you didn't think that one through! 13:33.063 --> 13:36.143 Don't get all excited just 'cause he praised you a little. 13:36.233 --> 13:37.903 It's not like it means anything. 13:37.983 --> 13:42.323 The only reason he can act that positive is because he doesn't know what I know. 13:54.373 --> 13:55.623 Hikaru? 14:07.883 --> 14:08.973 See? 14:09.053 --> 14:10.053 Yes, sir. 14:10.143 --> 14:11.473 Then learn it. 14:11.553 --> 14:12.563 Yes, sir! 14:13.313 --> 14:16.313 Jun Yodaka. Hikaru Kamisaki. 14:16.393 --> 14:19.353 Once I had seen that kind of inhuman talent, 14:19.443 --> 14:22.693 I knew I'd never be optimistic about my future again. 14:22.773 --> 14:24.903 I'm not gonna be pleased with myself just because I learned 14:24.983 --> 14:26.403 a couple of tricks. Rioh? 14:27.073 --> 14:28.073 Rioh! 14:28.153 --> 14:30.493 What's the matter? 14:30.573 --> 14:33.703 Nothing. My lesson's over so I'm going home. 14:33.793 --> 14:34.793 Now? 14:34.873 --> 14:38.623 So, your coach. Who is that guy? Spill it. 14:38.713 --> 14:42.713 Oh! He's, uh… Coach Aki… I mean Ake… 14:42.793 --> 14:44.303 That's Coach Tsukasa! 14:44.383 --> 14:45.923 What all has he done? 14:46.013 --> 14:47.883 Uh, he used to ice dance. 14:49.053 --> 14:50.053 Wow, that's it? 14:50.843 --> 14:52.053 Awful. 14:52.143 --> 14:55.933 So this random dude with no real career is gonna teach me a bunch of bad habits? 14:56.023 --> 14:57.233 He won't! 14:57.733 --> 15:00.353 Maybe I don't get what you mean, but don't worry! 15:00.443 --> 15:03.313 I've been working with him for a while and his skating's really pretty. 15:03.403 --> 15:04.903 Coach Tsuk-- Yeah, well, I bet any coach 15:04.983 --> 15:08.033 would look that way to someone as crappy as you are, so… 15:08.113 --> 15:10.863 You don't know what you're talking about. 15:10.953 --> 15:13.203 Okay, so fill me in. 15:13.873 --> 15:16.333 Have you seen him jump? Can he do an Axel? 15:17.293 --> 15:19.083 I'm not sure, but… 15:19.163 --> 15:20.673 That's what I thought. 15:21.673 --> 15:23.963 You only get one athletic career. 15:24.043 --> 15:27.593 Putting your fate in the hands of someone with no achievements is a huge gamble. 15:27.673 --> 15:32.343 Seriously. If you're going for the top, you should switch coaches now. 15:34.433 --> 15:37.353 See ya. 15:39.433 --> 15:41.023 I'm gonna win! 15:42.103 --> 15:44.313 I will. Just wait. 15:47.193 --> 15:48.653 Great! Then just try us! 15:49.243 --> 15:53.913 I can win just fine! I'm gonna beat Hikaru whether Jun Yodaka is teaching her or not! 15:53.993 --> 15:55.163 What? 15:55.243 --> 15:56.783 We'll show you all! 15:59.373 --> 16:01.833 Congratulations on passing level seven, Hikaru. 16:01.913 --> 16:04.673 Is it true you passed them all on your first try? 16:04.753 --> 16:06.673 What? You're a genius! 16:06.753 --> 16:08.213 EXAM HISTORY: FAIL 16:08.803 --> 16:10.213 You don't stand a chance! 16:10.303 --> 16:12.133 Yes, I do! You're gonna fail! 16:12.223 --> 16:13.513 I'm gonna win! 16:14.093 --> 16:17.683 I'm gonna land that double Axel and compete at the All-Japans in Novice A. 16:17.763 --> 16:18.763 You hear me? 16:18.853 --> 16:20.603 And I'll beat Hikaru! 16:20.683 --> 16:21.773 What the hell? 16:21.853 --> 16:25.693 You're crazy. You obviously don't know what you're up against. 16:25.773 --> 16:28.273 Being level six or landing a double Axel is the bare minimum you-- 16:28.363 --> 16:29.863 I can do it! 16:29.943 --> 16:31.943 What is wrong with her? 16:32.033 --> 16:34.283 Has she never seen Hikaru perform? 16:34.363 --> 16:36.283 It's not like you can win with determination alone. 16:36.373 --> 16:38.123 She's deluding herself! 16:38.203 --> 16:41.373 I just don't get it. How can she talk like that? 16:41.453 --> 16:43.623 And how does she actually believe it? 16:44.213 --> 16:48.093 I wish I could be that confident. 16:50.213 --> 16:53.133 Hmm? Inori? What's going on? 16:53.223 --> 16:55.933 Your dad is your coach, right? 16:56.013 --> 16:59.433 And he was on the podium with Mr. Yodaka a whole lot back in the day, 16:59.513 --> 17:02.273 in the Olympics… Yeah. What's your point? 17:02.353 --> 17:06.063 My point… is that even if you do have Coach Sonidori, 17:06.153 --> 17:09.153 I'm gonna land a triple-double combination before you! 17:09.233 --> 17:12.493 I'm gonna prove to you just how great Coach Tsukasa is! 17:13.903 --> 17:14.903 That's not good. 17:15.703 --> 17:18.623 Hey, hey! You two better not be fighting! 17:19.243 --> 17:20.743 Coach Tsukasa. 17:20.833 --> 17:22.453 What's the problem here? 17:22.543 --> 17:26.293 I, um… It's nothing! Don't worry about it! It's none of your business, okay? 17:26.373 --> 17:28.753 I heard my name a little too much for that to be the case! 17:28.833 --> 17:32.053 I said it's none of your business! 17:32.133 --> 17:33.213 Inori, wait! 17:35.133 --> 17:37.093 Not the changing room. 17:40.853 --> 17:43.103 Rioh. 17:43.183 --> 17:46.103 Oh. This is so awkward. 17:46.733 --> 17:47.733 What do you want? 17:47.813 --> 17:50.613 Nothing. Let's just talk for a second before you leave. 17:50.693 --> 17:52.863 Is this about the argument? 'Cause if it is… 17:52.943 --> 17:54.613 Well, that too, I guess. 17:55.533 --> 17:56.783 But, mostly, 17:56.863 --> 17:58.743 I just want to get to know you better. 17:58.823 --> 18:01.873 For starters, why don't you tell me why it is you started skating? 18:01.953 --> 18:07.003 Huh? My dad is an Olympian, so he literally forced me to start, why else? 18:09.083 --> 18:12.383 Can I go? 'Cause talking to you is, like, super irritating. 18:14.463 --> 18:17.843 I'll still come to practice, but for real, leave me alone. 18:19.723 --> 18:21.103 Coach Tsukasa! 18:21.683 --> 18:24.893 Listen! I wanna pass level six this summer no matter what! 18:24.973 --> 18:26.683 And I wanna learn a triple-double combo 18:26.773 --> 18:29.233 so I can compete at the All-Japans in Novice A! 18:29.813 --> 18:33.023 So, please help me make that happen! 18:34.903 --> 18:35.903 Goodbye! 18:36.993 --> 18:39.613 W-wait, Inori! Your books! 18:40.993 --> 18:43.413 Oof, I'm sorry. 18:43.493 --> 18:46.663 Now let's talk about what you were saying earlier… 18:46.753 --> 18:48.913 Do you think that'll be too difficult? 18:49.003 --> 18:51.883 Well, considering our current pace, 18:51.963 --> 18:55.423 nailing the double Axel for your next exam is gonna be work enough. 18:55.503 --> 18:59.433 I'm not so sure it would be wise to try to cram a triple double in there too. 18:59.513 --> 19:01.933 And what if I start practicing even harder? 19:02.013 --> 19:05.143 I understand how you feel, I do. 19:05.223 --> 19:08.103 But you're already at max capacity when it comes to training. 19:08.933 --> 19:11.943 If you push it any further, you'll risk shin splints again. 19:12.023 --> 19:14.943 Yeah, I don't want that. 19:15.613 --> 19:18.243 Now, we could change up our practice methods, 19:18.323 --> 19:20.863 maybe speed up your progression a little bit that way. 19:20.953 --> 19:25.533 But, I gotta tell ya, you're already progressing at an incredibly fast rate. 19:26.493 --> 19:29.123 Prelims to level five in a single year is pretty insane. 19:29.213 --> 19:30.213 RATE OF GROWTH 19:31.083 --> 19:33.293 Will you tell me what you and Rioh were fighting about? 19:34.003 --> 19:36.463 'Cause if he said something that hurt your feelings, Inori, 19:36.553 --> 19:38.303 we can figure it out together. 19:39.923 --> 19:42.683 Tensions are rising on the rink as people gear up for nationals. 19:43.473 --> 19:46.853 Maybe it's just the atmosphere that's getting to her. 19:46.933 --> 19:51.693 But I mean… She's obviously got something bottled up in there. 19:51.773 --> 19:53.983 What! What were they talking about? 19:55.273 --> 19:58.233 Um… I… Well, I… Hmm? 19:58.323 --> 20:01.243 I'm taller than I was last year! I grew four whole centimeters! 20:01.323 --> 20:04.743 Not only that, but I passed my endurance test at school with flying colors. 20:04.823 --> 20:07.203 And they said that for stuff like running and mat exercises, 20:07.283 --> 20:10.253 I'm in the top five of all the kids in my entire grade level! 20:10.333 --> 20:12.253 I went from the girl who can't do anything 20:12.333 --> 20:14.543 to the girl who's good at sports! 20:15.083 --> 20:17.883 I'm a totally different person than I was a year ago. 20:17.963 --> 20:22.133 I'm trying to tell you I'm better at stuff now, whether I'm on the ice or not! 20:22.223 --> 20:23.263 Watch this! 20:26.433 --> 20:30.523 A double Axel? Inori, you… 20:31.063 --> 20:33.353 See? I can do it on land. 20:33.443 --> 20:36.863 And I'm gonna prove to you that I can do a triple-double combo, too! 20:36.943 --> 20:39.733 That was incredible! 20:39.823 --> 20:42.113 Inori, that was a straight-up double Axel! 20:42.193 --> 20:44.363 Two and a half rotations, how'd you do that? 20:44.453 --> 20:47.123 I finally got it down just the other day. 20:47.623 --> 20:50.123 But I still can't do it on ice, obviously. 20:50.753 --> 20:52.793 I can't believe this. 20:53.543 --> 20:56.503 I thought she couldn't do it because she didn't have the muscle tone yet, 20:57.173 --> 21:00.383 but if she can do it on land, she's more than capable. 21:00.463 --> 21:04.883 So it's technique. We can do so much more with this. 21:06.843 --> 21:10.643 I take it back. Let's do a mini-intensive at training camp. 21:11.433 --> 21:12.643 Intensive? 21:12.733 --> 21:16.943 Yeah. Let's do it. All-Japans Novice. 21:18.113 --> 21:20.523 The same stage as Hikaru Kamisaki.
