Dive!! (2017) s01e06 Episode Script

Diamond Eyes

1
Miu, what are you?
I have feelings for Miu.
I've always had feelings for her.
Miu had feelings for you,
but now she cares about me more.
-So we're dating now.
-I can't believe you'd do that to me!
You knew about Miu and me!
I knew things were rocky between you two.
And I know just how much
Miu was struggling with it.
So I'm probably more
Things were going fine with Miu!
-The other day we went out
-Well, did you notice then?
That she got a new haircut?
Do you know when Miu's birthday is?
What about her favorite food or color?
It might be small.
-But if that's what makes her happy, then I'd
-That's enough.
I don't want to hear it.
But there's just one thing.
Have you two kissed?
Miu.
I'm not sad.
I'm frustrated.
Unbearably frustrated.
Just like a flying bird spreading its wings
Over the blue ocean
Searching for a dream I've yet to have
Fly about through trial and error
The sun rises and falls again
I want to change that mundane reality
The smell of boundless summer
Even in my hands
I'm sad without you here
And the sun is lonely too
Being in the middle of you
Having learned the sad lie
A map of the future appearing in the sky
A future that changes without you
I tried to forget you by hiding behind my laughter
A view that cannot be seen from here
A view that can only be seen from here
Open up the canvas of my heart
And paint with the true colors only you can see
Your body is out of line.
-Have you been skipping your weight training?
-No, I've been doing it!
How many days has Tomo missed now?
Two weeks already.
I message him every day, but
Forget him.
If he wants to drop out, let him.
We just have to focus on ourselves.
When are you going to get over that?
Shut up.
Who are you diving for?
Sorry.
If I heard you right,
your girlfriend
was stolen
by your younger brother?
And so you skipped two weeks of practice,
because you were depressed?
Yeah.
You might not think it's a big deal, but to me
Are you stupid?!
I'm not stupid.
Hiroya might've been right
that I didn't pay enough attention to Miu,
but now that she's gone,
-I think I may have really liked her
-That's a lie.
You just think you cared about her
because you lost her.
If she was really important,
you would've done that from the start.
You would've made sure you wouldn't lose her.
That's harsh.
You're just running away from your problems
by deceiving yourself.
You already know what the most
important thing to you right now is.
Coach, you can say that
because you focused your whole life on diving,
and you've never fallen in love before!
I'm sorry.
You're right.
I dedicated my life to diving.
I spent all of my time practicing,
but I wasn't able to become a top-tier diver.
However, I had a natural intuition for diving.
Whether I'm performing myself,
or watching others perform,
I can just tell what the flaws are,
and how they can be fixed.
WARM-UP
STRENGTH TRAINING - BODY ALIGNMEN
And so I went to America,
and started studying how to coach.
That's when my grandfather
called me over to tell me
that he decided
to create a diving club in Setagaya,
and he asked me if I'd coach.
My grandfather said that
after meeting a certain young man,
it rekindled his passion for diving.
Who do you think that was?
Shibuki Okitsu.
That's right, but he didn't join MDC.
And then my grandfather passed away,
and I went to fulfill his unrealized dream.
And I thought I did.
Then I also found another incredible talent
named Yoichi Fujitani here at MDC.
I was sure.
Shibuki Okitsu and Yoichi Fujitani.
The two of them would be able to fire up MDC,
which had been saddling Mizuki.
In other words, it was all for the two of them?
Fujitani wasn't the only talent I found in MDC.
Unlike him, this boy was completely unpolished,
but he had the raw, natural talent.
I'm talking about you, Tomoki Sakai.
Me?
Yes. You have the natural talent.
What I call, diamond eyes.
Diamond eyes?
Do you remember?
Why did you stop at one?
I thought I was too slow.
When I see the 5-meter platform there,
I won't make it unless
I've finished my second flip.
Your eyes are special.
You're able to lock on to a target
while moving at incredible speeds.
You had those special eyes,
as well as flexibility, strength, and expressiveness.
There aren't many athletes
who have all these qualities.
But you do.
And that raw diamond
is trying to throw away diving,
just because his brother stole his girl.
He's closed himself inside this tiny room,
and is wasting his time wallowing every day.
So, what are you going to do?
Are you going to stay closed off?
Or?
Okay. I see.
I was wrong.
You're not able to surpass the limits
of this tiny world.
-I'm coming in.
-You finally learned how to knock.
Hey, I'm not an animal.
Yeah, right.
-Tomorrow's the day.
-Yeah.
You want a massage?
You trying to make me sick?
Hey, relax.
You've got a meet.
I'm fine.
-What were you thinking about?
-Nothing.
Liar.
I can tell from your face.
The Death of a Diving Genius
I just don't get it.
What do you mean?
MONTHLY COMPETITIVE SWIMMING
I don't know why the old man
taught me the diving standards.
Tomoki Sakai told me.
He said I knew all the basics needed for a meet
before I even got here.
Did the old man want to put me in a meet one day?
SHIRAHA OKITSU
Did he want me to repeat his failure?
What grandpa would intentionally
make his grandkid suffer?
Your grandpa didn't teach you the standard techniques
to have you repeat his same mistakes.
Don't you think he only taught you the basics
so you wouldn't repeat his failure?
What do you mean?
Just ask your own body.
There's only one thing I wish for.
I want you to win tomorrow.
Not as a coach, but as your annoying roommate.
What are you doing?
-I was remembering.
-Remembering what?
The first time I ever saw
one of these diving platforms.
Back then I was still 8.
This platform looked like a giant dragon to me.
Since then, I've sacrificed a lot
in order to defeat this dragon.
My studies,
school clubs,
hanging out with my friends.
You say that, but you still had a girlfriend.
Not anymore.
Hiroya is the other life I could have had.
Hanging out with friends,
really falling in love with someone.
That must have been why I was so frustrated
to have my girlfriend stolen from me.
-But
-But?
But I'm giving them up now.
All the things I didn't choose.
You'll do the 3-and-a-half?
No, I'm going to surpass it.
Surpass the limits of this tiny world surrounding me.
Diving first is Yoichi Fujitani.
Mizuki Diving Club.
Second is Atsuhiko Yamada.
They're about to start.
This competition is going to determine
who gets to go to the Beijing camp.
We know.
They're gonna pick the Olympic candidates
at the camp, right?
What's wrong?
You've got dead eyes.
It's not my lucky day today.
Apparently Jupiter and Saturn
are ruining things for Sagittarius.
That's not it.
You may not want to accept it,
but you're anxious.
You're scared.
You can't help how scared you are.
Scared of proving yourself.
Hey.
I'm not losing today.
I'll be waiting for you at the top, Yoichi Fujitani.
Yoichi Fujitani.
Representing the Mizuki Diving Club, 407C.
Degree of difficulty: 3.2.
You can do it, Yoichi!
That's Yoichi for you. Getting a high score already.
OUTWARD 3 1/2 REVERSE SOMERSAUL
TUCK POSITION
Now, who's next?
It's so bright.
Pinky!
BACK 2 1/2 SOMERSAUL
1 1/2 TWIST PIKE POSITION
Pinky might do it today.
2 1/2 REVERSE SOMERSAUL
TUCK POSITION
Oh, that's too bad.
3 1/2 REVERSE SOMERSAUL
PIKE POSITION
Oh, man. They both worked so hard too.
It's up to you now, Tomo.
That was great, Tomo! Keep it up!
Come.
Make it to the top.
-Who was that again?
-Matsuno from Tokushima?
2 1/2 REVERSE BACK SOMERSAUL
PIKE POSITION
-That was a good score, but
-Pretty plain.
Whoa, Tsuji's handstand is beautiful!
Here comes Fire Jiro!
He's still on fire today.
Okitsu is last.
I hope he doesn't get too nervous,
since this is his first meet.
Damn it. Me, nervous?
You've gotta be joking.
The old man would laugh at me.
Yo, old man.
Tell me the truth.
Your grandpa didn't teach you the standard techniques
to have you repeat his same mistakes.
That was awesome! His entry was perfect!
In first place, Yoichi Fujitani, 76.8.
In second place, Shibuki Okitsu, 75.00.
Okitsu's in second?
But something's not right.
Hey.
What's with the boring dive?
It's fine.
What's fine about it?
Did you come all the way from Tsugaru
for that snoozefest?
What?
Snoozefest?
What's wrong with it?
He's in second place from his first dive.
It's a great start.
But anybody else could've done that dive.
You're the one who told me
not to make any splashes.
Yeah, well, who told you
to kill your personality to do it?
Kill my personality?
I never said anything about
pulling back on your performance,
and killing what makes you unique.
Those big dives are out of the question right now.
His back won't be able to
How did you know?
Okitsu, what do you want to do?
If you keep doing easy dives,
you might get some decent results.
But
If you do your own brand of diving,
even just once, in this competition,
if you learn the thrill of pushing yourself
in front of a crowd,
you'll never forget that feeling for the rest of your life.
You'll be able to continue with diving,
not for your promise to me,
but for that momentary thrill.
Momentary thrill?
Tomoki Sakai, 107B.
Degree of difficulty: 3.0.
I can make it!
Yes!
3 1/2 REVERSE SOMERSAUL
PIKE POSITION
That's a huge score!
That was amazing, Tomo!
Nice dive.
In other words, you're scared.
You're scared of parting with the ocean.
You're scared of stepping into a new world.
You have to do it.
You need to do it for yourself.
BACK 3 1/2 SOMERSAUL
PIKE POSITION
In first place, Yoichi Fujitani, 342.00.
Did you see that?
That's Okitsu.
What? But he fell to fourth place.
Look at that rip entry!
What was that again?
Did you see how there was no splash,
but there was that nice, loud plop?
BACK 2 1/2 SOMERSAUL
1 1/2 TWIST PIKE POSITION
Three perfect scores!
This is getting interesting!
He's going way too far.
Damn it.
REIJI MARUYAMA
RYO OHIRO
All right!
That old man
He knew what this thrill felt like.
Now to announce the final standings.
In first place, Yoichi Fujitani, 434.80
Let's go, Tomo.
Hey, Tomo.
I'm frustrated.
Everyone complimented me
on my fourth-place finish,
but I didn't know how bad it felt
to lose a competition.
Ryo was right.
It can't just be fun.
I need to be first place.
I want to win.
I want to win next time, and get first place.
Searching for a small light
Wanting to touch tomorrow's warmth
Because I chose not to shed any tears
Because that is what I vowed
Even if I hit an invisible wall
Or get lost in days without answers
Let's walk forward with confidence
Because we're still unfinished
Inside the hands reaching up to the sky
There is a faint sign of hope
The tomorrow that was fading away
We will change into certainty
So run, cut through the wind
Shout out, as long as your voice rings true
One day I'm sure we'll be able
to reach a new world
