Ping Pong Page #2

Another ball!

What's wrong?

I'm shipping out.

We just started!

Real hot, ain't it?

Why are you following me?

You're going to beat China, right?

Hell, yeah!

So you can't skip practice

any more.

Practice like that?

It's a total waste of time.

I've been really tired lately.

Of what?

Table tennis, relationships...

life is getting too complicated.

I'm a simple guy-

All I want is to be

the best table tennis player...

...on the planet!

Winning's everything, right?

No, it isn't.

No?

I don't like dragging someone

down just to win a game.

That's the cool part.

For me, ping-pong is only

killing time.

Not for me.

Yeah, but you're cool.

I don't like it

when you look bad.

Then let's go back.

I can't practice without you.

I'll buy you a Popsicle.

Hurry up, Smile!

Run!

Hey! Popsicles!

Welcome to the 2000 Inter-High

Prefectural Preliminary...

Men's Table Tennis Tournament.

I have to play those losers?

I wish I was dead!

I don't see the guy with the glasses.

Kaio!

Look out!

Who'd you draw?

China, in the third game.

That sucks, dude. Rest in peace.

What about you?

I drew...

...'that', in the third game.

Demon?

Well, if it isn't Peco!

You're such a shrimp

I almost didn't see you.

Maybe a certain bald guy

needs better glasses, huh?

Does your sh*t school put frosh

on the varsity squad?

Better than picking up balls

for three years at a name school.

Dumb-ass!

I'm on the varsity!

Sakuma!

Team meeting!

Right!

Later, Peco. Have your hanky out.

What?

For when you start crying.

I'll put a ball right through

those glasses, a**hole!

I'm going to skunk you,

Demon!

There he is!

You happy now?

Where's Mr Kazama?

He always shuts himself

in the can before a match.

Diarrhea?

No.

One day you'll understand.

Game, set! Hoshino,

Katase High School.

Thank you, thank you...

Shut up, stupid!

It's only the first game!

What does he think

he's doing?

Kong, baby! Show us some kung-fu!

Hey, China!

China! China!

Hey, fortune-cookie!

Silence!

To hear you speak ill of him...

...is repellent.

He's pissed off.

Who the hell do you think

you are, egghead?!

Cool it!

Huh? Huh?

Just shut up!

The Kaio team's having

its meeting, Mr Kazama.

I want to talk to you.

Do you mind?

I'm going!

Wait!

I met your mother

at an Inter-High Tournament!

He represented Aomori,

and I represented Ehime!

Table tennis is in your blood!

I won't stand by

and let you quit!

Let go of me!

So what if he's Chinese?

Some black people can't dance.

What? Is that true?

Yeah! And some Germans

don't like beer!

Your father's from Aomori,

but he hates apples!

Yeah!

Shanghai-Schmanghai!

He'll fall down, go boom!

Fall down, go boom!
