Great Battle on the High Seas Ep. 5

Maki

Urgh… This log bridge obstacle is so wobbly and unstable.

Karin

This might be the trickiest one yet.

Hanamaru

I'm putting so much effort into not slipping, I can't make any progress at all, zura…

Karin

What should we do? I need to make up for the time I lost from falling earlier, too.

Maki

Hmm. Then I'll go nice and slow ahead of you. Going too fast would make it too wobbly behind me and send you back into the water again.

Karin

Huh, you're more of a tactician than I expected. You might be able to keep me steady, but Shizuku is… Eep?!

Karin

H-Hanamaru? Wh-Why did you just grab me there?

Hanamaru

I-I-I-I'm so sorry, zura, Karin! I had to grab something, and you just happened to be there!

Karin

I-I mean, I understand that all too well, but try not to grab my sides… Hee hee… It tickles! Ack!

Maki

Gah! Wh-Why are you grabbing me?!

Hanamaru

Eek! We're gonna fall, zura!

Hanamaru, Maki, Karin

AHHHH!

[Fade in/out.]

Umi

*Huff* *Huff* You and Shizuku are in the lead. I need to find a way to catch up to… AAH!

Maki

Careful!

Umi

Ggh… M-Maki…! Th-Thank you very much. I almost fell into the water… D-Don't tell me you fell here!

Maki

Yeah, thanks to SOMEBODY. Geez… Does everyone want to eat that shaved ice so badly?

Umi

W-Well, it isn't something we get to eat every day. It's no wonder they're so desperate.

Maki

So are you. Why did we have to go to the trouble of a competition when we could've just ordered some as a group? If you were that worried about numbers, we could've shared.

Maki

I don't think getting excited over something tasty is anything to be ashamed of. You never really own up to your true feelings in situations like these, Umi.

Umi

Ngh… I could say the same about you, Maki! You acted like you weren't on board with the competition at first, but you're having plenty of fun with it now, aren't you?

Maki

I-I'm not having fun! I just don't want to lose! Come on! They'll catch up to us if we keep dawdling like this. Let's go!

[Fade in/out.]

Maki

The slide's up next… And it's a pretty long one.

Umi

However, it also means that it takes up a large portion of the course. We might be able to close right in on the lead here! Hup!

Maki

I've come this far, so I might as well see this through to the end.

Maki

Here I go! Ack! This thing's pretty fast! Wh-Whoa…

Maki

*Chuckle* Woohoo!

Umi

…

Maki

Ah…

Umi

Are you having fun?

Maki

No, I'm not!
