Excuse my poor rendition |
00:00:30 |
In it he talks about sumo. |
00:00:36 |
During a visit to Japan, |
00:00:41 |
The scholar, Horiguchi, |
00:00:48 |
Here is Horguchi's translation |
00:00:55 |
The players are pink giants. |
00:01:02 |
As unique as the frescoes from |
00:01:09 |
The regimen gives some of them |
00:01:13 |
enormous bellies and breasts |
00:01:20 |
Each of them sports a top-knot |
00:01:23 |
and the face of a pretty girl. |
00:01:30 |
They come together in equilibrium, |
00:01:34 |
their legs intertwined, |
00:01:36 |
their fingers grasping each other's sash. |
00:01:40 |
And the fringe standing erect. |
00:01:42 |
Their muscles flexing. |
00:01:45 |
Legs rooted to the earth. |
00:01:48 |
Blood coursing though their veins. |
00:01:51 |
And the ring is all a pastel of pink. |
00:01:55 |

We're the All-Season Sports Club. |
00:02:08 |
We offer tennis, surfing, |
00:02:10 |
skiing, golf, scuba-diving |
00:02:13 |
Join us and you can enjoy all these. |
00:02:15 |
Our scuba tour to Okinawa |
00:02:17 |
is open to non-members, too. |
00:02:19 |
We're not just another sports club. |
00:02:22 |
You could become a TV reporter. |
00:02:25 |
That's not very promising. |
00:02:27 |
I can't expect support. |
00:02:31 |
How about you? |
00:02:34 |
Not yet. |
00:02:35 |
I've decided. |
00:02:36 |
To become what? |
00:02:37 |
I'll join a big company. |
00:02:40 |
Using family connections. |
00:02:42 |
How did you know? |
00:02:43 |
Refrigerator told me. |
00:02:50 |
He can't keep his mouth shut. |
00:02:52 |
You'll have a hard time coming |
00:02:58 |
Which company? |
00:03:00 |
Better not to ask. |
00:03:02 |
You'll only upset him. |
00:03:06 |
Have you consulted |
00:03:10 |
Should I? |
00:03:11 |
Don't you read the notice board? |
00:03:26 |
Comparative Culture Department |
00:03:41 |
Is professor Anayama here? |
00:04:10 |
Pleased to meet you. I'm Anayama. |
00:04:15 |
We're in the middle of cleaning. |
00:04:21 |
Would you excuse us? |
00:04:26 |
Certainly. |
00:04:28 |
She's a brilliant student. |
00:04:32 |
Doing post-graduate work |
00:04:35 |
Second year, aren't you? |
00:04:36 |
Yes. |
00:04:40 |
I'm Natsuko Kawamura. |
00:04:42 |
I'm Yamamoto. Shuhei Yamamoto. |
00:04:47 |
A dreadful record. |
00:04:50 |
A minimum of credits. |
00:05:02 |
You're on my roll, |
00:05:09 |
but I've never laid eyes |
00:05:13 |
Someone has called you present |
00:05:21 |
I've been appointed |
00:05:25 |
Did you know? |
00:05:27 |
Well... er... no. |
00:05:29 |
Why are you here? |
00:05:33 |
Got a job yet? |
00:05:36 |
Yes, I have. |
00:05:39 |
That's typical. |
00:05:41 |
So now you have to graduate. |
00:05:44 |
Yes, sir. |
00:05:45 |
Can you? |
00:05:48 |
That's up to you, sir. |
00:05:51 |
Don't be stupid. It's up to you. |
00:05:55 |
I'll make you a deal. |
00:06:00 |
Will you join the sumo club? |
00:06:04 |
Sir? |
00:06:14 |
It's only for one day. |
00:06:19 |
Just one appearance in the ring. |
00:06:24 |
It's not as if it's full-time. |
00:06:28 |
Be a man and help out. |
00:06:37 |
Kyoritsu University |
00:06:47 |
The wrestlers face off. |
00:06:49 |
Time to fight! |
00:06:52 |
The signal is given |
00:06:53 |
Aoki rushes forward. |
00:06:55 |
The champion dodges. |
00:07:00 |
The champ fights back. |
00:07:02 |
The odds almost impossible. |
00:07:05 |
Will Aoki be thrown? |
00:07:09 |
Aoki turns the tables! |
00:07:13 |
Aoki has thrown the grand champion! |
00:07:19 |
Lower yourself. |
00:07:24 |
You're crushing them. |
00:07:26 |
Show some fortitude. |
00:07:28 |
Can't this wait till the tournament? |
00:07:32 |
You play the game, you wear the sash. |
00:07:36 |
I didn't ask for this. |
00:07:38 |
You guys are in trouble, |
00:07:44 |
A true volunteer doesn't expect |
00:07:49 |
I don't know why you're here |
00:07:51 |
but while you are, you're in the club. |
00:07:54 |
And you'll obey me. |
00:07:58 |
Wait here. |
00:08:22 |
Anayama University Grand Champion. |
00:08:25 |
You didn't know he was |
00:08:31 |
So, you took the manly path. |
00:08:38 |
You call this manly? |
00:08:40 |
What's wrong with it? |
00:08:44 |
A little perseverance |
00:08:50 |
I'm the honorary manager. |
00:08:53 |
Only in name, really. |
00:08:57 |
Professor told me about you. |
00:09:01 |
Don't worry, it's only schoolboy sumo. |
00:09:05 |
We're at the bottom |
00:09:09 |
There's no club weaker. |
00:09:13 |
Hardly any members for 16 years. |
00:09:17 |
We needed volunteers to make |
00:09:20 |
Just enough to enter the tournaments. |
00:09:23 |
But the well is dry. |
00:09:26 |
If we don't enter this year, |
00:09:31 |
It's in the charter. |
00:09:33 |
But our opponents are full-on, |
00:09:36 |
They'll kill me. |
00:09:38 |
I said not to worry. |
00:09:42 |
They're all the same level. |
00:09:45 |
Very few students actually train |
00:09:49 |
Most are volunteers, too. |
00:09:52 |
Same build and everything. |
00:09:55 |
Sorry to keep you. |
00:10:00 |
Hello. |
00:10:01 |
Professor has done, everything |
00:10:04 |
the rest is up to you. |
00:10:07 |
He wants this place kept spick |
00:10:11 |
Yes. |
00:10:13 |
He's lived alone here for 4 years. |
00:10:17 |
The only official member. |
00:10:22 |
Do your best. |
00:10:31 |
Let's go. |
00:10:32 |
Where? |
00:10:33 |
We're recruiting. |
00:10:35 |
We need a minimum of five members. |
00:10:39 |
At least one more to train. |
00:10:41 |
Wait on. |
00:10:42 |
In this jockstrap? |
00:10:45 |
It's a sash. |
00:10:47 |
Of course you will. |
00:10:51 |
What about you? |
00:10:52 |
I get to wear this. |
00:10:58 |
What's with Yamamoto. |
00:11:01 |
He's recruiting for sumo. |
00:11:04 |
Do we also do sumo tours? |
00:11:08 |
He's upholding the tradition. |
00:11:11 |
Now recruiting for the sumo club! |
00:11:14 |
Take that cap off. |
00:11:17 |
It helps me to endure the ridicule. |
00:11:25 |
University Pro-Wrestling Competition |
00:11:28 |
Let's go look. |
00:11:30 |
I hate the trickery of it. |
00:11:54 |
In the red corner, Cutie Haruo! |
00:12:00 |
C'mon, Haruo! |
00:12:03 |
Why do I have to dress like this? |
00:12:05 |
Wrestlers need a gimmick. |
00:12:10 |
It was decided at the meeting |
00:12:12 |
that you'd be a transvestite. |
00:12:15 |
Who's a transvestite? |
00:12:17 |
I joined to build my body! |
00:12:20 |
Don't blubber like a girl! |
00:12:24 |
Fight! Fight! |
00:12:37 |
We won't recruit just sitting here. They will |
00:12:42 |
They will come. |
00:12:48 |
No way. |
00:12:53 |
It's my 8th year here. |
00:12:59 |
I've always loved sumo. |
00:13:03 |
But I was always too small. |
00:13:07 |
All through school. |
00:13:09 |
Then I happened to see |
00:13:13 |
Mr. Anayama recruited me. |
00:13:17 |
Some were quite small. |
00:13:19 |
Anayama himself was a grand champion. |
00:13:23 |
I knew it was last chance. |
00:13:25 |
I've stayed to keep the club |
00:13:30 |
People laugh at sumo today. |
00:13:34 |
We needn't grovel to recruit |
00:13:40 |
Gimme a break. |
00:13:44 |
We need someone. |
00:13:47 |
We've wasted three days. |
00:13:51 |
I don't care. |
00:13:53 |
I was looking forward to |
00:13:57 |
but to graduate, I have to. |
00:14:02 |
Leave it to me. |
00:14:05 |
Just because he's fat doesn't make |
00:14:23 |
You may be right. |
00:14:27 |
Sorry to scare you. I have a request. |
00:14:30 |
Will you save our sumo club? |
00:14:33 |
Please enter the tournament. |
00:14:37 |
Or our historical sumo club |
00:14:40 |
Please, it's just for one day. |
00:14:42 |
You'll only have to appear. |
00:14:48 |
Lower yourself. |
00:14:52 |
You're crushing 'em. |
00:14:53 |
Forbearance, boy. |
00:14:58 |
Can't it wait till the tournament? |
00:15:00 |
You play the game, you wear the sash. |
00:15:07 |
How's that? |
00:15:10 |
Where's the toilet? |
00:15:12 |
Through that door. |
00:15:21 |
What changed your mind? |
00:15:26 |
You said ''Maybe he's got it.'' |
00:15:28 |
He has a natural grace. |
00:15:30 |
Sumo wrestlers walk differently |
00:15:33 |
The left arm moves with the left leg |
00:15:36 |
How do I manage? |
00:15:40 |
Poke it out the side. |
00:15:45 |
I think he's a special case. |
00:15:49 |
I've seen it before |
00:15:51 |
it's just from being uncoordinated. |
00:16:00 |
In here. |
00:16:02 |
I've recruited a new member. |
00:16:10 |
Haruo! |
00:16:13 |
My brother! |
00:16:15 |
It's such a common name |
00:16:20 |
You're joining the club? |
00:16:22 |
What about wrestling? |
00:16:25 |
I quit in disgust. |
00:16:26 |
Sumo has class |
00:16:30 |
And a cool jockstrap. |
00:16:32 |
You're such an idiot. |
00:16:34 |
It's a mawashi, not a jockstrap. |
00:16:37 |
Sumo is very popular with |
00:16:42 |
That's big league stuff. |
00:16:44 |
What's cool about skinny guys |
00:16:48 |
Mawashi. |
00:16:50 |
What about you? |
00:16:55 |
He gets credits. |
00:16:56 |
I could have guessed. |
00:16:58 |
Can you give him a jockstrap? |
00:17:05 |
Mawashi. |
00:17:12 |
I pissed on my jockstrap. |
00:17:16 |
It's a damned mawashi! |
00:17:23 |
70th East Japan University |
00:17:32 |
It's our first appearance |
00:17:37 |
Just appearing stops us closing down. |
00:17:41 |
I know you have no experience. |
00:17:45 |
But your opponents are not |
00:17:50 |
So don't over-do it. |
00:17:53 |
Or you may injure yourselves. |
00:17:57 |
Hey, Anayama! |
00:18:00 |
I heard you entered, so I brought |
00:18:03 |
some of the old boys. |
00:18:05 |
Even Mr. Min |
00:18:10 |
You scared me! |
00:18:14 |
We'll treat you all to a feast after. |
00:18:19 |
At a sumo restaurant. |
00:18:22 |
Let's make it a victory celebration! |
00:18:28 |
Stiff with fear, already? |
00:18:35 |
Hokuto University to the east. |
00:18:39 |
Kyoritsu University to the west. |
00:18:43 |
Drop those towels! |
00:18:47 |
They're the champions. |
00:18:49 |
Give 'em hell, Kyoritsu! |
00:18:53 |
Bow! |
00:18:57 |
Tanaka, you show 'em! |
00:19:09 |
Relax, relax. |
00:19:15 |
Bow. |
00:19:35 |
Time's up. |
00:19:37 |
Get ready. |
00:19:45 |
Are you okay? |
00:19:47 |
From the east, Motohashi. |
00:19:50 |
From the west, Yamamoto. |
00:19:56 |
Time's up. |
00:19:58 |
Get ready. |
00:20:07 |
He went out! |
00:20:10 |
Get some specs, judge! |
00:20:12 |
Don't you know the rules? |
00:20:14 |
He was off the ground! |
00:20:16 |
In that case he's allowed |
00:20:18 |
And it's referee, not judge! |
00:20:24 |
East wins. |
00:20:26 |
From the east, Sugimoto. |
00:20:30 |
From the west, Yamamoto. |
00:20:46 |
Take it off. |
00:20:49 |
On your ear. |
00:20:50 |
No earrings allowed? |
00:20:51 |
Take it off! |
00:20:53 |
Damn fruit. |
00:21:01 |
Bow. |
00:21:03 |
Time's up. |
00:21:06 |
Get ready! |
00:21:19 |
East wins. |
00:21:24 |
Beginners shouldn't throw ritual salt. |
00:21:28 |
East wins with a slap-down. |
00:21:34 |
Sugimoto wins! |
00:21:36 |
Your head was too low. |
00:21:39 |
From the east, Kurataka. |
00:21:42 |
From the west, Aoki. |
00:21:46 |
It's enough to make you laugh. |
00:21:51 |
You're on. |
00:22:06 |
Bow. |
00:22:17 |
Give him hell, Aoki! |
00:22:29 |
Ouch! |
00:22:32 |
Bow. |
00:22:36 |
Win by pull-down! |
00:22:41 |
Kurataka wins for the east! |
00:22:43 |
No problem, they're the top team. |
00:22:47 |
It's just beginning. |
00:22:52 |
You forgot to bow! |
00:22:57 |
Time out! |
00:23:19 |
Cheat! |
00:23:42 |
Honjitsu Medical University |
00:23:46 |
Kyoritsu University on the west. |
00:23:50 |
Let's get at least one win. |
00:23:53 |
How shameful to lose to these guys. |
00:23:56 |
Bow. |
00:23:59 |
From the east, Tadokoro. |
00:24:02 |
From the west, Tanaka. |
00:24:18 |
Win, boy! |
00:24:27 |
A win! |
00:24:36 |
A win! |
00:24:39 |
Bow! |
00:24:41 |
Assume position! |
00:24:45 |
Ready |
00:24:51 |
A win! |
00:24:56 |
From the east, Nonaka. |
00:24:59 |
From the west, Aoki. |
00:25:01 |
Fight to the death! |
00:25:11 |
Bow. |
00:25:20 |
Assume position! |
00:25:37 |
Not that again. |
00:25:39 |
Tension gives him diarrhea! |
00:25:50 |
East wins by default! |
00:25:57 |
Bow! |
00:26:27 |
You're an insult to |
00:26:32 |
If you disgrace it again |
00:27:05 |
Don't over-grind your sesame, |
00:27:09 |
Is your stomach better, Aoki? |
00:27:13 |
The old boys are treating us, |
00:27:15 |
so eat and drink your fill. |
00:27:19 |
You did your best today. |
00:27:22 |
You couldn't help losing. |
00:27:25 |
You did well considering you |
00:27:29 |
You have my heartfelt thanks. |
00:27:32 |
Cheer up Aoki, |
00:27:36 |
I'm proud of you. |
00:27:39 |
I've never been so ashamed. |
00:27:43 |
Shut down the club. |
00:27:47 |
You call that sumo? |
00:27:50 |
It's an insult to sumo! |
00:27:53 |
Is it so important to keep the club |
00:27:56 |
get down on your knees |
00:28:01 |
How dare you call these slack, wimps |
00:28:05 |
the Kyoritsu University team! |
00:28:08 |
Just what have you been doing? |
00:28:13 |
You're the ones |
00:28:19 |
Have you considered |
00:28:21 |
to beg for members? |
00:28:26 |
Wasn't it all to satisfy you old boys? |
00:28:30 |
Miss Kawamura. |
00:28:34 |
Professor, leave this to me. |
00:28:38 |
Our students don't want to do sumo. |
00:28:42 |
How dare you! |
00:28:45 |
Shut-up! |
00:28:46 |
Boys today are |
00:28:51 |
That's all! |
00:28:52 |
They're not interested in sumo. |
00:28:55 |
At least they came today. |
00:28:58 |
They did their best for the club. |
00:29:00 |
You should be thanking them! |
00:29:02 |
There's a limit! |
00:29:04 |
This team is woeful! |
00:29:07 |
Best put them out of their misery! |
00:29:12 |
I want you apologize. |
00:29:17 |
They did their best for the club. |
00:29:21 |
Apologize. |
00:29:22 |
How conceited! |
00:29:25 |
Just because you were once a champion. |
00:29:28 |
Is that anyway to treat your senior? |
00:29:32 |
I should apologize to these fairies? |
00:29:36 |
If they'd win, I'd be pleased to! |
00:29:40 |
I'd get down on my knees. |
00:29:44 |
I'd donate my asshole! |
00:29:48 |
You're like a damn fruit! |
00:29:50 |
You've never won a bout. |
00:29:52 |
Four years |
00:29:57 |
Yet you profess to love sumo. |
00:30:10 |
You want a win! We'll give you a win! |
00:30:27 |
Should have kept my mouth shut. |
00:30:31 |
I had my chance, why am I back again? |
00:30:36 |
You know why we're so weak? |
00:30:38 |
No. |
00:30:40 |
We lost our sports scholarships. |
00:30:44 |
So that's why? |
00:30:46 |
Those guys yesterday |
00:30:49 |
Heard the story about Mister? |
00:30:51 |
The baseball player? |
00:30:52 |
In English class once |
00:30:57 |
as ''t-he.'' |
00:30:58 |
He just spelt it out. |
00:31:02 |
I heard differently. |
00:31:05 |
He saw a guy reading. |
00:31:09 |
translation there. What's the title? |
00:31:14 |
Turns out it was an |
00:31:18 |
Right, |
00:31:21 |
We've nothing to be ashamed of. |
00:31:27 |
The TV crew are ready to shoot. |
00:31:36 |
I'm from Station News. |
00:31:38 |
Do you know where the sumo club is? |
00:31:40 |
Yes, but it's quite far. |
00:31:42 |
We finally found someone! |
00:31:46 |
The 96th student we asked knows |
00:31:49 |
Where is it? |
00:31:50 |
Turn right up past that hall there |
00:31:53 |
go straight and it's on the left. |
00:31:59 |
Look! Here comes the sumo club! |
00:32:03 |
It is them! |
00:32:05 |
It's surely the sumo club. |
00:32:07 |
To revive the traditions |
00:32:10 |
four young men are determined to win. |
00:32:13 |
Are you confident? |
00:32:15 |
We must for the university |
00:32:23 |
Did you see them on TV? |
00:32:25 |
You've done well. |
00:32:27 |
With all the publicity they're |
00:32:31 |
It just may keep them for a while. |
00:32:36 |
How did you contact the TV people? |
00:32:39 |
Remember what my master's thesis is? |
00:32:42 |
Refresh my memory. |
00:32:43 |
Information manipulation |
00:32:46 |
Using our boys as a case study? |
00:32:57 |
It's discrimination. |
00:32:59 |
Where are our cheer girls? |
00:33:10 |
I saw you on TV. |
00:33:12 |
The answer is no. |
00:33:14 |
I haven't asked yet. |
00:33:15 |
Isn't that why you're here? |
00:33:17 |
Well, yes. |
00:33:18 |
When's the tournament? |
00:33:20 |
In three months. |
00:33:22 |
Just for 3 months? |
00:33:25 |
You'll join? |
00:33:26 |
Not me. |
00:33:28 |
I don't wanna flash my ass. |
00:33:30 |
There's a rugby player from Oxford |
00:33:33 |
he's attending |
00:33:36 |
Try the ''traditional Japanese culture'' |
00:33:40 |
He's bound to bite. |
00:33:43 |
Sumo may well be your national game. |
00:33:47 |
But it's not a sport. |
00:33:50 |
It's just a show. |
00:33:52 |
Unnaturally fattening men up. |
00:33:57 |
Making a show of naked, |
00:34:00 |
They're not naked. |
00:34:02 |
They wear a mawashi sash. |
00:34:04 |
OK, if sumo is a sport |
00:34:07 |
they can wear pants under the mawashi. |
00:34:11 |
But no-one does. |
00:34:12 |
Why wear pants? |
00:34:14 |
I don't want to show |
00:34:18 |
and I don't want to see |
00:34:23 |
Perhaps the mawashi is needed |
00:34:28 |
But a naked bum is not. |
00:34:31 |
The top-knot, too. |
00:34:35 |
In sports it's not what you wear. |
00:34:39 |
But that's part of |
00:34:45 |
Oh, tradition. I understand. |
00:34:48 |
Japanese always say that. |
00:34:50 |
It's tradition- it can't be changed. |
00:34:54 |
You Japanese |
00:35:00 |
I've nothing against sumo. |
00:35:04 |
But I will not appear naked in public. |
00:35:08 |
You have nudist camps in Europe. |
00:35:12 |
You Japanese miss the point! |
00:35:14 |
Nudism is not |
00:35:16 |
it's for private relaxation. |
00:35:21 |
Foreign toilets are always open, |
00:35:25 |
In a toilet there's a need to undress. |
00:35:29 |
It's nothing shameful. |
00:35:32 |
It's a matter of necessity. |
00:35:34 |
High-leg pants? |
00:35:36 |
That's beauty, isn't it? |
00:35:40 |
It's a matter of taste. |
00:35:42 |
I have a pretty bum. |
00:35:45 |
We're wasting our time. |
00:35:48 |
One last question. |
00:35:51 |
Why close the curtains in the daytime? |
00:35:56 |
Japan is so expensive. |
00:35:59 |
I haven't paid my rent for 6 months. |
00:36:03 |
If the landlord knows |
00:36:05 |
The sumo club has a dormitory. |
00:36:08 |
It's rent-free with food, too. |
00:36:12 |
Can I wear pants? |
00:36:16 |
And only two hours practice? |
00:36:22 |
Let's make a contract. |
00:36:33 |
He's insulting sumo. |
00:36:35 |
We need him to win. |
00:36:37 |
Even in pants? |
00:36:39 |
It's a matter of customs. |
00:36:42 |
It won't last long. |
00:36:44 |
It will. |
00:36:45 |
And we're slapping |
00:36:49 |
Like caricature Japanese |
00:36:51 |
We have to win. |
00:36:53 |
I want you all in the dormitory. |
00:37:08 |
He's very strong. |
00:37:10 |
Stronger than the others. |
00:37:13 |
Poor Haruo! |
00:37:15 |
Cheer up, Haruo! |
00:37:17 |
Beat the foreigner! |
00:37:21 |
Nasty brute! |
00:37:26 |
How sweet! |
00:37:28 |
What's all that? |
00:37:29 |
They saw the TV show. |
00:37:31 |
Haruo is something of an idol. |
00:37:34 |
Mass-media merchandise, is he? |
00:37:38 |
Both he |
00:38:17 |
Take a break. |
00:38:20 |
I think I see your strong points. |
00:38:22 |
You all need strengthening. |
00:38:25 |
How was your first time, Smiley? |
00:38:29 |
Power inevitably wins. |
00:38:32 |
It's too simple to enjoy. |
00:38:35 |
I'm number one. |
00:38:41 |
We're not finished yet. |
00:38:44 |
Two hours is up. |
00:38:46 |
Let's follow the contract. |
00:38:49 |
What is that thing? |
00:38:53 |
Our house god. |
00:38:54 |
House god? |
00:38:56 |
An altar for offerings. |
00:38:58 |
But isn't this a Christian university? |
00:39:05 |
You Japanese never delve to |
00:39:13 |
Power inevitably wins? |
00:39:18 |
That's not always the case in sumo, |
00:39:22 |
You're right. I always thought so. |
00:39:29 |
Do some basic movements practice. |
00:39:36 |
Keep at it. |
00:39:37 |
Thank you, sir. |
00:40:28 |
I want to join the club. |
00:40:33 |
I'll do anything. |
00:40:37 |
I'll cook, wash or clean. |
00:40:39 |
Make me a manager. |
00:40:42 |
I can even live in. |
00:40:48 |
A manager built like a champ |
00:40:56 |
We've hit rock bottom. |
00:40:59 |
You always have been. |
00:41:02 |
What's that? |
00:41:05 |
She fancies Haruo. |
00:41:08 |
Don't say that! |
00:41:18 |
What are you doing. |
00:41:20 |
I'm going to wash them. |
00:41:24 |
You mustn't. They never get washed. |
00:41:27 |
You're kidding! |
00:41:29 |
I'm serious. |
00:41:30 |
Whose was mine? |
00:41:33 |
I don't know. |
00:41:34 |
Sorry, I didn't know. |
00:41:37 |
They never get washed. |
00:41:41 |
Not even once? |
00:41:44 |
How disgusting. |
00:41:48 |
40 days have passed |
00:41:53 |
Including the Englishman, Smiley |
00:41:56 |
there are now 5 in the club. |
00:41:59 |
Haruo, is training arduous? |
00:42:01 |
Yes, but I've adjusted. |
00:42:04 |
Now we're all totally absorbed. |
00:42:08 |
What's with the colored sandbags? |
00:42:12 |
We use them to shove against. |
00:42:16 |
We all have our own color |
00:42:20 |
and have pledged to wear |
00:42:27 |
Why don't you coach them? |
00:42:32 |
It's best to let them |
00:42:36 |
Don't you want to win the tournament? |
00:42:40 |
They couldn't take the training |
00:42:44 |
I'm happy just |
00:42:49 |
You really mean that? |
00:42:54 |
I'm pleased you're giving |
00:42:58 |
But truthfully, they haven't a chance. |
00:43:03 |
Not one of them |
00:43:09 |
They can't learn with that attitude. |
00:43:13 |
Is it better to have such |
00:43:19 |
If you won't get involved |
00:43:24 |
Myself, I'd miss it. |
00:43:29 |
American Cheergirls Strip-show. |
00:43:36 |
You went? |
00:43:40 |
How long...? |
00:43:42 |
Awhile. |
00:43:43 |
You love Natsuko, don't you? |
00:43:47 |
What? |
00:43:50 |
Forget it. |
00:43:52 |
Unlike you I'm totally beat. |
00:43:57 |
I'm so tired I'd like to quit sumo. |
00:44:02 |
What's this? |
00:44:05 |
We don't have an air-conditioner. |
00:44:10 |
Is Tanaka asleep? |
00:44:12 |
He's exhausted. |
00:44:14 |
Almost dead. |
00:44:16 |
And Smiley? |
00:44:17 |
He's studying. |
00:44:20 |
Foreigners are made |
00:44:22 |
Studying contracts, eh? |
00:44:24 |
And Shuhei? |
00:44:25 |
I thought he may have been here. |
00:44:29 |
He's not. |
00:44:30 |
Maybe he's hit his limit. |
00:44:32 |
Limit? |
00:44:33 |
Sexual deprivation. |
00:44:35 |
Who's the lucky girl? |
00:44:39 |
He has many? |
00:44:43 |
Sure. |
00:44:44 |
If he breaks curfew |
00:44:47 |
Sounds like fun. |
00:44:51 |
You're a nasty boy. |
00:44:56 |
Do you hate sumo? |
00:45:01 |
Why do you care so much about sumo? |
00:45:09 |
He's so lonely. |
00:45:15 |
Who is? |
00:45:17 |
Mr. Anayama. |
00:45:25 |
Don't misunderstand |
00:45:27 |
he really loves sumo. |
00:45:32 |
But you guys don't care at all, so he |
00:45:35 |
has no wish to instruct you |
00:45:41 |
I want to see real sumo. |
00:45:46 |
Maybe it's selfish |
00:45:51 |
It is selfish. |
00:45:52 |
Try it yourself. |
00:45:55 |
Sorry, but sumo is the pits. |
00:46:13 |
It's gotta be. |
00:46:21 |
The summer sun at pool side |
00:46:27 |
Great! |
00:46:45 |
What happened? |
00:46:47 |
He broke curfew. |
00:46:55 |
Three hundred. |
00:47:01 |
Three hundred ring stamps. |
00:47:05 |
Three hundred! |
00:47:07 |
Enough. You'll kill him. |
00:47:10 |
Tomorrow we leave for summer camp. |
00:47:14 |
Should be Hawaii. |
00:47:17 |
But we can't afford it |
00:47:22 |
Reef... diving. |
00:47:28 |
Muff diving? |
00:47:39 |
They can laugh now. |
00:47:42 |
Did you hear about Prof's |
00:47:46 |
How should I? |
00:47:47 |
We were about to be demoted. |
00:47:51 |
He took three members with him. |
00:47:55 |
Only he came back. |
00:47:58 |
The others couldn't take it |
00:48:02 |
They even quit school. |
00:48:05 |
With no members we were demoted |
00:48:10 |
And have remained there since. |
00:48:14 |
I've prepared chilled melon. |
00:48:21 |
Excuse the intrusion. |
00:48:34 |
This is ''Hell-Camp?'' |
00:48:36 |
We've done nothing since arriving. |
00:48:39 |
Eating and sleeping, |
00:48:46 |
Shall we train? |
00:48:52 |
Anayama says not to. |
00:48:56 |
I'm not cut out for sumo. |
00:49:00 |
You like sumo? |
00:49:03 |
Not really... |
00:49:04 |
So why stay? |
00:49:07 |
Admittedly I roped you in. |
00:49:10 |
It's the first time |
00:49:15 |
All through school no-one |
00:49:20 |
I've never been in a club. |
00:49:23 |
I thought I'd never make friends. |
00:49:26 |
It was the first time anyone |
00:49:31 |
It made me really happy. |
00:49:35 |
Maybe sumo is not for me, |
00:49:38 |
but God gave me this final chance. |
00:49:49 |
Are you a Christian? |
00:50:04 |
Now we shall begin |
00:50:11 |
Fill your mind with your |
00:50:20 |
When was it? |
00:50:23 |
Ten days ago. |
00:50:26 |
Where was it? |
00:50:28 |
The Yoshiwara American Cheergirls. |
00:50:31 |
How was it pleasurable? |
00:50:35 |
How can I say...? |
00:50:59 |
I'm flattered but, I can't. |
00:51:04 |
You have a boyfriend? |
00:51:09 |
No. |
00:51:11 |
I'm not really interested in love. |
00:51:19 |
I may be mistaken, |
00:51:28 |
Will you quit the club? |
00:51:58 |
Can we beat them in a month? |
00:00:09 |
Get with it! |
00:00:12 |
It's not our choice |
00:00:18 |
It's the coach |
00:00:25 |
Maybe he thinks it's pointless |
00:00:32 |
Get up, Haruo. |
00:00:47 |
Lunch, boys. Masako's special feast. |
00:00:58 |
Where's Tanaka? |
00:00:59 |
He snuck earlier. |
00:01:29 |
I don't want to be a burden. |
00:01:33 |
I need to train. |
00:01:36 |
Remember once I said |
00:01:39 |
power doesn't always win in sumo. |
00:01:44 |
But bulk is a definite factor. |
00:01:49 |
A kilo in weight |
00:01:53 |
That's sumo. |
00:01:56 |
I know you all didn't want to get fat. |
00:02:01 |
So I brought you here. |
00:02:03 |
It's cool, with clean air |
00:02:06 |
all you can possibly eat |
00:02:09 |
You'll soon put on 5-6 kg. |
00:02:13 |
Earlier you were over-training. |
00:02:18 |
Relax and build your strength. |
00:02:21 |
It's not good to over-train. |
00:02:25 |
Everyone's depressed to see |
00:02:30 |
The training in Tokyo seems wasted. |
00:02:34 |
We were just getting confident. |
00:02:40 |
I want to be strong. |
00:02:45 |
You're like dead fish! |
00:02:50 |
No more food here for you boys. |
00:02:58 |
It was delicious. |
00:03:02 |
You're all out of condition. |
00:03:06 |
You need competition? |
00:03:08 |
The Hokuto team are here. |
00:03:14 |
Are you kidding? |
00:03:16 |
No, I'm not. |
00:03:18 |
You've built your strength up. |
00:03:20 |
Now get confident. |
00:03:37 |
You're enthusiastic. |
00:03:39 |
It doesn't become you. |
00:03:41 |
Shut up. |
00:03:43 |
I'm frightened. |
00:03:53 |
You're keen. |
00:04:10 |
Here they come. |
00:04:21 |
Hokuto refused my offer. |
00:04:25 |
They don't like your attitude. |
00:04:28 |
So I asked the local schoolboy's club. |
00:04:32 |
Damn Hokuto! |
00:04:35 |
Train with the kids. |
00:04:37 |
This is pathetic. |
00:04:42 |
Regard us with favor! |
00:04:45 |
Shall we start with Smiley? |
00:04:47 |
Come together! |
00:05:02 |
Magic. |
00:05:04 |
It wasn't magic. |
00:05:05 |
When you pushed, |
00:05:10 |
You lifted your leg. |
00:05:13 |
And he used his right hand |
00:05:16 |
and your momentum to flip you over. |
00:05:21 |
What was that technique? |
00:05:24 |
Inside leg-trip. |
00:05:26 |
Power doesn't always win in sumo. |
00:05:29 |
Remember that, Smiley. |
00:05:31 |
As Jean Cocteau said |
00:05:33 |
The balance in sumo is miraculous. |
00:05:36 |
In sumo upsetting |
00:05:44 |
Right, Tanaka. |
00:05:52 |
Shuhei. |
00:06:05 |
Damn it! |
00:06:09 |
Aoki. |
00:06:12 |
Yoshiwara American Cheergirls. |
00:06:24 |
Even kids frighten him. |
00:06:26 |
Haruo. |
00:06:32 |
A win! |
00:06:34 |
Once more! |
00:06:39 |
What's with him? |
00:06:45 |
I'm sorry. |
00:06:46 |
Are you alright? |
00:06:47 |
He's crazy! |
00:06:49 |
Haruo, come here. |
00:06:52 |
Your spirit is admirable. |
00:06:55 |
But your power |
00:06:58 |
Do as I tell you. |
00:07:16 |
I did it. |
00:07:21 |
The Tricky Cat. |
00:07:23 |
Startle him with a sharp clap. |
00:07:26 |
They always flinch. |
00:07:28 |
Even a grand champion lost when |
00:07:30 |
someone used it on him. |
00:07:33 |
What was that? |
00:07:34 |
Special technique. |
00:07:35 |
He combined it with a head attack. |
00:07:39 |
That's my speciality. |
00:07:42 |
Along with my fabled inside leg-trip. |
00:07:50 |
Don't lift your legs. |
00:07:52 |
Remember the basics and you'll win. |
00:07:55 |
Don't go easy because they're kids. |
00:08:04 |
You're scared of boys? |
00:08:06 |
Take these off and you won't be. |
00:08:10 |
Close your eyes. |
00:08:19 |
Grab his sash! |
00:08:21 |
Lower your head. |
00:08:24 |
Don't try to throw him. |
00:08:34 |
He did it! He did it! |
00:08:38 |
Look at the kid-killer champs |
00:08:42 |
They could win |
00:08:47 |
They're just bullies. |
00:08:52 |
This is a ''comeback?'' |
00:08:56 |
Give sumo some honor! |
00:09:14 |
What the hell! |
00:09:20 |
Stop it - please! |
00:09:38 |
Don't insult sumo! |
00:09:45 |
One month to the tournament. |
00:09:48 |
Your hell begins today. |
00:09:50 |
But don't be afraid. |
00:09:52 |
You have the will to win. |
00:09:56 |
Together we'll restore |
00:10:17 |
When pushed - push! Pulled - push! |
00:10:20 |
Sumo is all pushing. |
00:10:28 |
Don't lift your legs! |
00:10:30 |
Slide! |
00:10:33 |
Don't look away. |
00:10:34 |
Close your eyes instead. |

What's with the mawashi? |
00:12:33 |
A present from the TV station. |
00:12:36 |
But say they're from the old boys. |
00:12:40 |
Sorry about the flashy mawashi. |
00:12:43 |
Any color is allowable. |
00:12:45 |
Whose idea? |
00:12:46 |
Skinny. The director. |
00:12:48 |
Oh, him. |
00:12:50 |
What's with the mawashi? |
00:12:54 |
Shame upon shame. |
00:12:56 |
Hello everyone. |
00:12:59 |
A pretty little bum. |
00:13:15 |
There's no problem with |

But Smiley, the tights have to go. |
00:13:26 |
No exceptions for foreign customs. |

What's that? |
00:14:34 |
It's spelt wrong. |
00:14:38 |
Can't you even spell? |
00:14:41 |
It's a mistake! |
00:14:43 |
No, it's a joke! |

I don't know why |
00:15:03 |
but lately he's been very agitated. |

West wins! |

He stepped out! |
00:16:00 |
Step out! |
00:16:14 |
A win to the west. |
00:16:19 |
Unintentional step-out. |
00:16:22 |
That's great. |
00:16:24 |
Close your eyes if you're afraid. |
00:16:27 |
Attack with your head. |

The 40th, East Japan |
00:29:30 |
Third division has been won by the |
00:29:32 |
Kyoritsu University Sumo Club! |
00:30:28 |
How's Haruo? |
00:30:31 |
The break is not so bad |
00:30:36 |
They'll keep him in overnight. |
00:30:41 |
So there goes tomorrow's contest. |
00:30:45 |
Tomorrow? |
00:30:51 |
Divisional promotion bouts. |
00:30:54 |
Winners of the 3rd Division |
00:30:57 |
advance to the 2nd Division. |
00:31:00 |
Yes, that's right. |
00:31:05 |
I'll refuse the offer. |
00:31:08 |
Shuhei sprained his ankle. |
00:31:11 |
Haruo's arm is broken. |
00:31:14 |
They'll field 7 men. |
00:31:17 |
Three is not a majority. |
00:31:20 |
Impossible to win. |
00:31:33 |
I'll fight! |
00:31:40 |
You can't, you're a woman. |
00:31:44 |
I want revenge for Haruo. |
00:31:47 |
But women aren't even allowed |
00:31:51 |
It's not even funny. |
00:31:55 |
I can enter. |
00:31:57 |
I'm not kidding, I'm serious! |
00:32:02 |
Alongside you all. |
00:32:04 |
In place of Haruo! |
00:32:06 |
Please, let me. |
00:32:16 |
Alright. |
00:32:17 |
She'll have to go naked. |
00:32:23 |
So what? She's a club member, too. |
00:32:26 |
I'll join in, too. |
00:32:29 |
You don't mind? |
00:32:31 |
Good, that makes six. |
00:32:35 |
It may bring shame on you |
00:32:43 |
You're the coach. It's your decision. |
00:33:11 |
Are you serious? |
00:33:18 |
If they know you're a woman, |
00:33:20 |
you'll be barred. |
00:33:29 |
You'll be naked except for a sash. |
00:33:36 |
I'll fight. |
00:33:54 |
win, win! Daitoa will win! |
00:33:56 |
If we fall to 3rd Division |
00:33:59 |
They're on a run. |
00:34:01 |
Don't let them fool you. |
00:34:05 |
If you let these wimps beat ya, |
00:34:09 |
Fight to the death! |
00:34:14 |
What's wrong? |
00:34:17 |
Where's Masako? |
00:34:21 |
She was gone this morning. |
00:34:23 |
And Kawamura? |
00:34:24 |
Same thing. |
00:34:47 |
From the east, Nogami. |

A win! |
00:40:15 |
God, oh god, I won. |
00:40:23 |
You won! All by yourself! |
00:40:26 |
Leave the rest to me. |
00:40:50 |
A win! |
00:40:54 |
He did an inside leg trip! |
00:40:56 |
Diarrhea or not, a win's a win! |
00:41:00 |
Show some spirit! |
00:41:04 |
He's strong. |
00:41:07 |
Far stronger than you. |
00:41:10 |
So that's your opening. |
00:41:12 |
He expects to win. |
00:41:15 |
He'll try for a slap-down. |
00:41:18 |
He won't want to get in close. |
00:41:21 |
Hang on to him and don't let go. |
00:41:26 |
I didn't want to lecture you. |
00:41:30 |
But you have a real chance. |
00:41:32 |
Under no circumstances |
00:41:38 |
Anyway, I'm satisfied |
00:41:42 |
The thing is, will you be satisfied? |
00:41:46 |
From the east, Nakada. |
00:41:49 |
From the west, Yamamoto. |
00:42:05 |
Do your best. |
00:42:24 |
Bow. |
00:42:57 |
The players are pink giants. |
00:43:05 |
As unique as the frescoes |
00:43:09 |
They come together in equilibrium, |
00:43:12 |
their legs intertwined |
00:43:14 |
their fingers grasping |
00:43:18 |
And the fringe standing erect. |
00:43:21 |
Muscles flexing. |
00:43:23 |
Legs rooted to the earth. |
00:43:25 |
Blood coursing through their veins. |
00:43:27 |
And the ring is all a pastel of pink. |
00:43:38 |
A win! |
00:44:20 |
Thank you, Smiley. |
00:44:24 |
I'll be back in two years. |
00:44:27 |
Thanks for the Japanese spirit. |
00:44:32 |
You're wrong, Smiley. |
00:44:34 |
It's one for all and all for one. |
00:44:37 |
I'll see you two in London. |
00:44:43 |
Masako's dad is in London. |
00:44:47 |
She's going there soon. |
00:44:49 |
She asked me to go, too. |
00:44:52 |
I've always wanted to study abroad. |
00:44:58 |
Masako Mamiya. |
00:45:14 |
Farewell, Aoki. |
00:45:17 |
Let's toast. |
00:45:19 |
Good work, Aoki. |
00:45:28 |
By the way, |
00:45:30 |
Tanaka will turn professional. |
00:45:34 |
I made the introduction. |
00:45:38 |
We're sorry to lose him for next year. |
00:45:41 |
In the last fight God spoke to me. |
00:45:45 |
This is only way for you. |
00:45:49 |
Your cheers made me so happy. |
00:45:53 |
I'm so glad I started sumo. |
00:46:05 |
''Tomio Aoki.'' |
00:46:05 |
May I ask a question? |
00:46:12 |
Did you really ask to fight Hokuto |
00:46:18 |
I just wondered. |
00:46:21 |
Maybe you planned |
00:46:25 |
I didn't plan the all-out brawl. |
00:46:29 |
I knew it! |
00:46:31 |
I thought Haruo |
00:46:37 |
Next year we start from zero again. |
00:46:47 |
''Shuhei Yamamoto.'' |
00:47:20 |
What are you doing? |
00:47:23 |
I'm considering staying another year. |
00:47:25 |
I don't want the club to finish. |
00:47:32 |
And your job? |
00:47:35 |
No more easy roads for me. |
00:47:42 |
Will you teach me stamping? |
00:48:16 |
Finally I get to stamp my feet. |
