Q255: Do your best!

Page 3

Panel 1

Bubble: Seirin has scored consecutively!

Bubble: It’s a sixteen point gap!

Panel 5

Mibuchi: Hey! What are you doing—

Page 4

Panel 2

Hayama: Because of my error, the point gap is shrinking.

Hayama: Why…why did this happen?!

Panel 3

Hayama: They were able to steal because I got too worked up.

Hayama: I got too worked up because Izuki provoked me.

Panel 4

Hayama: Why was I so easily provoked?

Hayama: Why did I respond to his taunts?

Panel 5

Hayama: And here I thought it wouldn’t happen…

Hayama: When I’ve just been underestimating Izuki this whole time!

Page 5

Panel 6

Hayama: …Akashi.

Page 6

Panel 1

Hayama: Sorry.

Hayama: I temporarily won’t go one-on-one.

Panel 4

Hayama: I wanted to retaliate immediately

Hayama: but that would have defeated the purpose. He’s even harder to face than Kagami. That’s because…

Panel 5:

Hayama: Izuki is a first-class athlete.

Hayama: If I don’t think before charging in, it could be dangerous.

Page 7

Panel 1

Akashi: …yes.

Panel 2

Akashi: It seems like you’ve calmed down. / Well, that’s fine.

Akashi: Before you redeem yourself, I will overlook your error.

Panel 3

Mibuchi: You got lucky. (TL: Literal translation: You got a life back.)

Hayama: Huh?

Panel 4

Mibuchi: If you had tried to keep going without clearing your head,

Mibuchi: I don’t know what state you would be in now.

Panel 5

Hayama: …eh?

Small text: That means…

Panel 6

Hayama: I completely forgot!

Mibuchi: You really are hopeless.

Page 8

Panel 3

Bubble: It’s Rakuzan’s attack!

Bubble: The Seirin player who wants to go against Akashi is…!

Panel 4

Bubble: Kagami and his wide defense!

Panel 5

Kise: …no…

Panel 6

Aomine: That idiot.

Aomine: This is…

Page 9

Panel 2

Kagami: Not good…!

Panel 3

Akashi: You were too naïve.

Page 10

Panel 2

Bubble: It’s devastating!

Bubble: Akashi hit a three pointer!

Panel 3

Seirin bench moaning.

Panel 4

Akashi: If you keep thinking that I will pass,

Akashi: Your defense will slacken and allow me to shoot a three pointer.

Panel 5

Akashi: When you are guarding someone else, / you cannot lose focus

Akashi: If you want to stop me.

Panel 6

Bubble: …though,

Page 11

Panel 1

Akashi: It’s only a matter of time.

Akashi: Even if you’ve managed to enter the Zone and got to this point / it will affect your stamina soon.

Panel 2

Kagami: What…

Izuki: Don’t listen to him, Kagami! Let’s get one back!

Panel 3

Kagami: Yeah…

Kagami: Dammit.

Kagami: I need to increase

Panel 4

Kagami: my concentration!

Kagami: What Aomine was talking about was the Zone’s explosive power.

Kagami: But there’s one other thing.

Panel 5

Kagami: Being in the Zone is like sinking in water.

Kagami: The deeper you go, the sharper you get.

Page 12

Panel 1

Kagami: There’s a deeper level to the Zone. (TL: This is when the tler groaned and took a break from tling.)

Panel 2

Seirin Bench: Go, Seirin!

Seirin: Overtake them!

Panel 3

Hayama: Ah!

Page 13

Panel 2

Bubble: It’s in!

Bubble: Seirin returned with a two pointer!

Panel 3

Tsuchida: …no.

Tsuchida: While it may seem as if we’re going basket for basket,

Panel 4

Izuki: Right now, we don’t have a shooter!

Izuki: After seeing Akashi’s three pointer, I thought

Izuki: As long as there’s Kiyoshi, Kagami and me, it’d be fine. However…

Izuki: Our success rate is a lot lower. Unless we get a good play, we can’t score.

Panel 5

Kiyoshi: Rakuzan has a scarier three point shooter than Akashi.

Kiyoshi: If they keep shooting three pointers, then…!

Page 14

Panel 1

Bubble: It’s Mibuchi!

Panel 2

Mibuchi: I won’t be riled up like Kotaro.

Mibuchi: …however,

Panel 3

Mibuchi: Why do you look so proud?

Koganei: …eh?

Panel 4

Koganei: Didn't you see our Izuki? / Is it something like that?

Mibuchi: Huh?

Koganei: Huh…? Uh…that’s because…

Page 15

Panel 1

Koganei: Isn’t the one with the momentum right now Seirin?

Koganei: So I have to do my best as well! / …something like that.

Panel 2

Mibuchi: How should I respond…

Mibuchi: Tch…

Page 16

Panel 1

Mibuchi: His demeanor changed!

Mibuchi: It somewhat resembles Kotaro.

Panel 2

Bubble: Coach.

Riko: The difference in ability here is probably the biggest.

Panel 3

Riko: Especially the difference in experience.

Riko: Koganei, who only started playing basketball in high school / can’t read the opponent’s moves like Izuki can.

Panel 4

Riko: But his athletics from tennis are very powerful too! (TL: Koganei played tennis?)

Riko: Although he isn’t proficient at anything, / since he was able to get to this point without having much experience, he is powerful in his own right.

Panel 5

Koganei: I’m not like them that, because of experience, I can predict the opponents’ moves.

Koganei: So right now, what I can do is…

Koganei: observe the opponent’s moves very carefully.

Nebuya: This is…!

Mibuchi: Animal instinct! (TL: throws manga to ground)

Mibuchi: But if I were to compare it…

Page 17

Kagami: Tiger

Aomine: Panther

Hayama: Cheetah

Koganei: Cat (Meow)

Panel 5

Mibuchi: But there’s a very big difference.

Panel 6

Seirin Bench: He doesn’t have an intimidating presence at all!

Panel 7

Mibuchi: Even though regular three pointers are good,

Mibuchi: I can’t let my guard down against Seirin.

Mibuchi: The point gap is also shrinking.

Mibuchi: Earth.

Page 18

Panel 2

Mibuchi: Eh?!

Mibuchi: He took a step back?!

Mibuchi: Did he know what I was going to do?!

Panel 4

Mibuchi: How can that be possible?

Mibuchi: Yeah right.

Panel 5

Mibuchi: It was just luck.

Mibuchi: Then, I’ll use my Heaven shot!

Page 19

Panel 2

Mibuchi: What?!

Panel 4

Mibuchi: Not good…I overshot it!

Panel 5

*Nebuya manly grunt*

Page 20

Panel 2

*Nebuya manly yell*

Panel 4

Seirin Bench: Ah, so close!

Bubble: Rakuzan’s attacks are devastating!

Words on the side: Don’t look down on anyone!

Panel 5

Koganei: Damn it!

Panel 6

Mibuchi: Even if you’re a cat, you’re a leopard cat.

Mibuchi: You really can’t underestimate anyone on Seirin.
