Chiyu Can't Jump!? Trouble At The Athletics Tournament!
Hmm...
What's she doing now?
Fortune telling.
I see...
"Can I strike the target of King Pathogerm's heart?"
"Or will my love miss the mark?" Something like that.
Sounds pretty weird.
Be quiet over there!
I'm busy practicing here, could you stop breaking my concentration?
Practice? I've never heard of fortune telling you can practice for.
Well it exists~!
To get good results practice is a must~!
Nooooo~!
Good grief, so ridiculous.
Nice jump, Chiyu-chan!
Hehe... When she's practicing for the track team, Chiyu-chan seems so alive!
I know what you mean~
When she's doing the high jump she's super alive!
Uh-oh... I'm alive too so I'm getting kinda hungry...
Wanna go get a bite to eat?
Hmm~ Please just a little bit longer.
The track-and-field team is really giving it their all...
Apparently the spring tournament is getting close.
What about Chiyu-chi? Think she'll win?
Probably, she beat the record for the last prefectural tournament after all.
— It's too early to be so sure.
— Eh? — Eh?
So we meet again.
SukoMiddle Journal's Michio Masuko, at your service.
Oh yeah, that hack journalist?
Ugh...! Crack! Crack journalist!
So? Whaddya want?
What did you mean by "too early to be so sure"?
Heh.
Our SukoMiddle track-and-field team's eternal rivals... the West Middle track-and-field team.
We need to learn about their true strength. That's where I come in.
The SukoMiddle Journal's very own Editor-in-chief,
Has been diligently collecting data for this purpose.
Hehe. Take a gander for yourselves.
As you can see here, they've already surpassed the prefectural tournament record.
In addition to Sawaizumi-san's personal best.
I was thinking of putting together a featured article on Sawaizumi-san...
But the wind has taken a very ominous turn.
Whatcha looking at?
— Wah~! — Wah~!
Ahh, Chiyu-chi... What's up, taking a break?
Nice timing! Let me get some pictures for this scoop!
Ah...
Oh it's nothing, nothing!
Um, you see... W-we were just looking at some pictures of cute jellyfish!
Yeah that's right! Jellyfish, jellyfish!
We totally weren't looking at pictures of the West Middle track-and-field team at all...
Hinatchn!!
Chiyu-chan?
It would be a lie to say it hasn't been on my mind but...
But?
Track and field is a battle with yourself.
I am my own rival.
— Fwow~ — Hehe..
I am my own rival.
— Chiyu-senpai made a mistake... — Yeah, that's the first time I've seen it.
What's wrong?
I guess my step timing was a bit off.
Don't worry about it. Just give it another shot.
— That's all for today! — Okay~!
Good work team!
Pe-...
Sorry for letting you see a bad side of me today...
No, not at all.
You try your hardest every single day, I think that's cool.
It'll be alright! I'm sure tomorrow you'll be able to jump no problem!
Yeah, you're right.
Good morning. Hehe...
Nodoka what are you doing here so early in the morning?
If it's alright with you, want to go running together?
As long as I won't be in your way of course...
Oi~ Chiyu-chi~!
I kinda felt like running with you today~
— What? Why are you here Nodoka-chi? — Awawawawawawa~
I was worried about Chiyu-san yesterday...
Eh, me too! We had the same idea!
— Ah... — Ah...
— Ahh~ what a coincidence! — Yeah, a coincidence!
— Right? — Right?
Ehehe…
Puha~! Back to life!
— Do you always run down this path? — Sometimes.
When you run through sand you tend to use muscles you don't ordinarily use,
It feels good and helps me chip away at whatever's bothering me.
Fwow~
I didn't know track athletes took things like that into consideration when running.
Hehe... But the truth is, that's not the only reason.
When I was little I loved to swim.
One day I was swimming in the sea as usual, and I just became immersed.
Before I knew it the entire world around me became blue.
The sky and the sea melted together into one.
It felt like I could keep going from the sea right into the sky.
I wanted to swim in the sky above.
That was what motivated me to start practicing the high jump.
Whenever I feel like I'm reaching my limits,
I look at the sea and feel like jumping again.
Just to get a little closer to that blue world where the sea and sky melt together.
But today the sea didn't help me. You two did.
Thank you.
— Ahh~! — What's wrong?
The time, the time! School, school!
No way!
Jeez, Chiyu-chi... why didn't you let us know earlier?
It's my fault?
Whatever let's hurry, we'll run there!
Now that I think about it I haven't even had breakfast~
Me too~
C-chiyu...
Chiyu, don't you think it'd be better to take a break on Sundays?
Thank you for thinking of me Pegitan. I'll be back later!
Pe...
Why did Chiyu suddenly become not able to jump?
Is she not feeling well?
Time for some investigation.
Somewhere... There has to be information on this somewhere...
Huh? Could this be it?
The yips...
"When something you were able to do easily, suddenly becomes difficult one day."
"When you become conscious of your slump, it can lead to an even further loss of skills."
"Many famous sports players have been known to not be able to continue matches because of the yips."
Those symptoms definitely seem to fit...
Chiyu...
— Rabi~
Princess Latte, how does that feel?
— Big trouble! — Wah~!
— Yips, yips, yips! — Huh, what's that?
W-we have to hurry and think of a way to treat this!
Nodoka? Where is Nodoka?
She went shopping with Hinata.
Ehh!? Shopping??
— Shopping is fun! — I feel so alive!
They're probably done shopping already.
After that they were going to head over to Hinata's house...
— Wahh~ — Ah, Pegitan!
That's so mean! Chiyu is suffering all by herself!
Meanwhile they're out playing at a time like this, that's cruel!
Nodoka! Hinata!
Huh? What's up, Pegitan? What're you cryin' for?
Hi everyone, what's that?
We're making a cheering banner.
Don't tell Chiyu-chi yet, okay?
You weren't just playing around...?
Of course not!
Are you alright Pegitan?
Did something happen?
Chiyu is...
Chiyu's got the yips! But she's still going out to practice today!
Nodoka and Hinata please,
Tell her not to work too hard!
We did tell her that though.
It's good to try your best but,
Don't overdo it okay, Chiyu-chan?
It's not like you'll die if you don't break the record right?
Even so, I want to jump.
Even if I'm overdoing it, I want to surpass my own limits.
Is that way of thinking kind of passé I wonder?
We couldn't say anything else after seeing that smile on her face.
We don't really know for sure what's right or wrong in this case.
So all we can do for now,
Is to let Chiyu-chan decide for herself while we cheer her on.
That's all.
"To the sky! Break through your limits!"
Nodoka~
By the way I did the writing, pretty good right?
Yeah. But you got one of the characters wrong.
Eh?
Wave
Ehh~!!!
Nyatoran, jeez what're you doing~?
Me?? Oh, I guess it is me!
Let's fix it. We'll still make it!
Take that!
It'll be Chiyu's turn soon.
— Hey, Pegitan! — I can't do it...
I'm so worried I can't even look...
— Ah, it's Chiyu-chan! — Ohh!
— Chiyu-chan~!
— To the sky! — Break through your limits!
Chiyu! Go for it!
— Wah! Pe~! — Wah! Pe~!
Thank you, everyone.
Compared to how high the sky is...
Everything... feels so alive.

But if it's surrounding everywhere then it won't be able to attack us either...
Wah!
Not true at all.
Do it, Megapathogerm!
Everyone! Can you lure his attacks away from me?
Eh?

Yes.
Ohh~! One of those precious bottles! That's the second one we've gotten!
Thank you, Ice Element.
Hah... All good, all good!
But, the tournament ended up in such a mess...
Yeah. Everyone was working so hard just for today... Huh?
Eheh!
— You did it! — Chiyu~!
Oh?
— Chiyu-chan~! — You did it~!
Chiyu, you were really cool. Everything's alright now right?
Yeah. Thanks to all of you.
One more step forward...
Closer to that place!
Celebrate, let's celebrate!
Yeah! Chiyu-chan what do you wanna eat?
— Hmm, whitebait with grated daikon I guess. — So plain! DNA!
