So Y equals X squared minus 3...

That's the first given...

Then...
Now stop looking outside...

So if that's the given...

Let go.
I got exams to take!

I said let go!

I'm gonna graduate!

I'm gonna graduate, dammit!

Let go!

Let go! Let go!

Wait, wait, wait!

Hey, hey, hey, Yukio!

- Where're you taking Yukio?!

- Okay, now calm down...

We understand, yes, yes...

now don't move...

I said leave me alone!

Yukio! Wait, hey! Yukio!

Where you going?

Hey, Kimura.

Hello.

Your hair's grown.

Yes.

Had enough of school?

Well, running with the Yakuza

isn't easy, either,

My uniform never looked that good on me.

I'd been having diarrhea

since this morning.

So I took a shit on my teacher's desk.

Heard you lost.

Yes, losing's all we do now.

Wanna join up?

Good timing, sir.

You keep this.

Right.

You better make it to the nationals

and get it back.

Get what back?

- My youth.
- Yes, sir!

Staked my whole youth on baseball.

My only goal the nationals.

In this shit hole of a school,

baseball was my only flower.

I staked my life on my bat,

My dreams on my pitches.

Watch me make the spirit

of baseball bloom.

In the midst of the roaring crowd,

a glimpse of my mother's face.

Even a fool like me,

she's always there to love.

Always ready to smile.

I love you so much for that.

Even if my body is broken

and all my tears and sweat dry up,

My dreams remains,
The Nationals.

No regrets for my youth.

Loser.

Kujo, did you hear?

Yukio stabbed and killed Ohta.

Kujo, you listening?

Yoshimura.

Man, he's changed.

- Good morning, sir.
- Oh, hey.

Not!

It's gotten awful quiet around here.

Not really.

Still plenty of fools around.

He scares me.

Scares you?

People who know what they want scare me.

How you doing?

Baseball players wanted

All right!

Asa High, let's go,

let's go, let's go.

Asa High, let's go,

let's go, let's go.

Here comes Asa High...

C'mon, there, go!

Hey, Kujo, did you hear

Leo clapped 7 times?

That punk's taking us for fools.

We got to clamp down

and show them.

How do we face that murderer Yukio

and Yakuza Kimura now?

With those 2 gone,

they're all puffed up.

C'mon, Kujo!

Leo, was it?

So you clapped 7 times?

Um, I'm not trying to

defy you or anything...

Chill out man.

I know you want to beat me

and act cool.
One!

All right! All right!

Two!

Three!

Just imagine there's a pool behind us

and it's not so scary.

Too cold for swimming.

Four!

Five!

Six!

Seven!

Eight!

Scared?

Whatever, shut up!

No way. You can't do it.

It's too far.

Scared, right?

Shut up! Be quiet.

No way.

Nine!

Mum!

Help me, I'm gonna fall!

Help me!

Ow, stop it, cut it out!

Leo, who the hell do

you think you are, huh?

Die, fucker!

You punk ass!

You pierced bitch!

Die!
Die, you fucker!

I'll kill you!

Die, you bitch, die!

Kujo, where you going?

We're not done with him yet.

Stop leaning on me for everything.

You can handle the juniors yourself.

Who the fuck are you!

So the range of Y equals...

2x + 3 over X + I...

Sorry about yesterday -Aoki

Hey!

Kujo, Kujo, late again?

It's the Always Late Kujo,

late again.

Anyway, back to class...

Kujo, sorry about yesterday.

Sorry.

Let's go to the store, huh?

Hey, Kujo...

Aoki, Aoki...

Look, Kujo, Aoki's going somewhere...

Aoki

Okey dokey,
there goes the low key Aoki...

Anyway, back to class...

Hey, Baba! Baba!

Hey, Aoki.

Go and buy me some Home Run bars.

What? You chicken shit...

You're Kujo's gofer, right?

I'm buddies with Kujo, so c'mon...

Who's Kujo?

He's just a condescending fucker!

Aoki?

Wait, Hori...

My eyes... I can't see.

Hori. Get outta here.

No, seriously. What should I do?

This is bad.

Really? Yeah.

Don't. Mom gave me that

to buy books with.

I need to buy comic books.

Please, give it back...

- Hurry your ass up.

- Let me go.

C'mon, move it. What the hell...

Yay! Home run!

Aoki's Turf

See page I 3 I, the magistrate here,

And the peasant classes...

Who the fuck do you think you are!

Stop talking shit!

Who put you in charge!

What're you talking about?

Die, asshole!

Leave if you don't like it here!

I love it here, you asshole!

Then stay till you die!

I'll make it hell on earth!

You can't do it!

I'll do something you can't.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Um, would you happen to be...

affiliated with a senior here named Aoki?

What in hell?
What school you from?

School?
This is my school

Falcon

Sorry, I'm not getting this.

You look stupid anyway.

Falcon? What the...

It's an international school with...

International or whatever, who cares?

This is Japan.

- And this is our school.

- True.

I mean, what's with this bike anyway?

What colour is this?

Aoki, I got the Home Run... bars...

"If you're happy and you know it,

clap your hands.

If you're happy and you know it,

clap your hands.

If you're happy and you know it,

and you really want to show it,

If you're happy and you know it,

clap your hands...

My dream was to become a pilot.

Are you okay?

Just take it slow, real slow

Be careful.

Is Aoki your friend?

Or an ex-friend?

People change when they change.

Yes.

Something you've born with.

Can't be helped.

The flowers are dried up...

They'll bloom again.

But all flowers dry up...

I'm thinking of...

quitting school.

You watering them everyday?

Teacher,

aren't there some flowers that never bloom?

Flowers are meant to bloom,

not to dry up.

That's what I choose to believe.

It's a very important thing.

Kujo.

I'm going home.

Take care.

Good morning! Good morning!

One!

Two!

Three!

Four!

Five!

This is your new classmate, Kujo.

Everyone be nice to him, okay?

I'm Aoki. Nice to meet you!

Uh, thanks

Let's play dodge ball.

It's no fun just watching.
Okay.
