Midorima’s daily lucky item is someone with red hair so he asked Akashi to send him a pic. Mibuchi helped Akashi doing that while Hayama and Nebuya wanted to appear in the photo with Akashi. Then they started talking about who they want to play against~

High☆Speed! (ハイ☆スピード!, Hai☆Supīdo!) is a novel written by Kōji Ōji and is the original concept of the anime Free!

Containing:

  1. High Speed 1- complete.
  2. High Speed 2- incomplete.

I’m moving it under a read more because it’s lengthy and so you’ll always be able to view the updated version!

Before and After Video Effects – Movies

Let us take a moment to appreciate all the effects people who create these things and the actors who make you believe them.

See where I got the audio video here (It’s translated in Portuguese though, so I translated in English.) Similar Translation/Aoba’s POV in his story here

TRANSLATION UNDER THE CUT (Warning: THESE ARE NOT OFFICIAL, THESE ARE MINE OR WHAT I CAME UP WITH, I’M SORRY IT’S NOT THE BEST. FIRST TIME TRANSLATING. Also huge thanks for waywardbabies for helping too! ^V^) 

Aoba: Well, it’s done. I still have some time left before Haga-san’s back. Anyways, I finished the data reports. *more typing* Hmm? A customer? At this rare time? 

Welcom-…ah…

Noiz: Yo

Aoba: You… Noiz! Why are you here?! 

Noiz: *sigh* 

Aoba: What is it? Why are you here at the store suddenly? Do you want something?

Noiz:Here.

Aoba: Hmm? A paper bag? Seems kinda heavy? Uh…it is!!!  What is this?! What’s inside?!

Noiz: See for yourself. 

Aoba: That bored tone of yours. You’re still the same as always. Geez…

Huh? What’s this? Candy? Lollipop, chocolate, gum, pound cake, caramel, Ramune (*Ramune is a carbonated soft drink originally sold in Japan)

Noiz: It’s for you. 

Aoba:Huh? Why? Is today something special? Like an anniversary?  

Noiz: No.

Aoba: Then, what?

Noiz: Well, not really something you would call an anniversary.

Aoba: Then it is something, right? Tell me. 

Noiz: Nothing. It’s not important.

Aoba:  Of course it is. You came all this way for this, right? Tell me!

Noiz: …

Aoba: Come on, hurry!

Noiz: …Birthday.

Aoba: Huh? Birthday? Whose? 

Noiz: Mine. 

Aoba: Seriously?!

Noiz: Shut up.  

Aoba: I had no idea that it was your birthday! 

Noiz: ‘Cause I didn’t tell you. 

Aoba: What!? I would’ve had the chance to get you something! 

Hm? Wait…hey…This bag by any chance…couldn’t be a present, right?

Noiz: Well…if you consider this a relation to birthdays, then this would be your closest answer. 

Aoba: No-no-no! Why did you bring a gift? That’s strange. I should be the one giving you a gift! 

Noiz: It’s nothing…I didn’t particularly want to celebrate it.

Aoba: Huh? Then…this bag… 

Noiz: Birthdays are generally meant to be celebrated, right? 

Aoba: Well…yeah…

Noiz: Then it means…that it should be an auspicious, happy day for the birthday person, right?

Aoba: An auspicious day…? That sounds weird, but I guess it would be something like that. 

Noiz: In that case, it’s not wrong to do something that leaves the person happy.

Aoba: Hmm? Leave happy…? Uh…What do you mean? 

Noiz: *frustrated sigh* That means…as the birthday person for this auspicious day, I don’t have any problem trying to make someone else happy.

Aoba: Huh? E-Eh? Um…this means that…what you’re saying is…even though it’s your birthday, you’re trying to make me happy? 

Noiz: Right.

Aoba: Why?

Noiz: *frustrated sigh again* You don’t get it?

Aoba: I don’t get it!

Noiz: A happy day for me would be one where I make you happy…I…nevermind. Eat…

Aoba: Hey…! What is it? Now I’m curious!

Noiz: *frustrated sigh AGAIN*

Aoba: *irritated groan* Well, whatever. Then, I’ll give you this one “Ah”

Noiz: Hmm?

Aoba: Well then…fufu…*unwraps candy* Here. Open wide. “Aaaaahhhhh~~!”

Noiz: *startled* Are you kidding? What are you doing?

Aoba: He-he-he. Come on!~ Come on!~ It’s your birthday, but you bought a present for me. I feel inconvenient. So the least you could do is go “aaahhh~!”

Noiz: *uncomfortable noise*

Aoba: Here. Here.

Noiz: *embarrassed tsundere groan* *defeated sigh* …Aahh

Aoba: Teehee. *places candy in Noiz’s mouth* Good?

Noiz: Not particularly. It’s kinda…sweet. 

Aoba: Of course, it is! You could be a little more appreciative. 

Noiz: *sigh* *reaches in bag & unwraps candy* Then…you too. 

Aoba: Eh?

Noiz: Here. I’ll give you one too, so open your mouth. 

Aoba: U-Uh…

Noiz: Hmph…what is it? You were excited when you did it for me. 

Aoba: No…it’s just…this is more embarrassing than I thought. 

Noiz: Don’t care. Come on, hurry up. Here.

Aoba: Geh- *embarrassed cat sound or an airplane* A..ah…aaaaahhhhh.*has candy in mouth*

Noiz: Good?

Aoba: Uh…yeah…Tastes like apples.

Noiz: Really? That’s good. 

Aoba: Eh?

Noiz: What is it?

Aoba: Nothing, I just found it so rare that you didn’t mock and took a swing at my face. 

Noiz: *scoffs* Why would I?

Aoba: Well then…

Noiz: Hmm?

Aoba: I haven’t had the chance to tell you yet. Happy Birthday. 

Noiz: *speechless* Yeah…

Aoba: Hehe. 

Next year, and the other years after that, let’s celebrate your birthday again together.

Noiz: There’s no telling in the future though.

Aoba: That’s fine. Promise? 

Noiz: …As you wish.

Aoba: Alright! 

(Anyways, poor Aoba, the tables have turned in the end. Candy is not the only thing that got place in Aoba’s mouth. *wink*wink*wink* I..I did my best. ;~;)
