1. Win it, Ao!
Copy !req
2. Knock him out, Ao!
Copy !req
3. Joe! What's wrong with you! Get him! Get him!
Copy !req
4. He's drained his strength.
Copy !req
5. This fight has become entirely one-sided now, wouldn't you say, Yohko?
Copy !req
6. That's the end of the round.
Copy !req
7. Return to your corners.
Copy !req
8. Joe! Pull yourself together! Joe!
Copy !req
9. Joe, what's happened to your basic technique?
Copy !req
10. Have you forgotten about your famous quick left jab?
Copy !req
11. Stop it, Nishi.
Copy !req
12. Are you asking for the moves that uncle taught me?
Copy !req
13. Save that confidence for when you're not in such bad shape.
Copy !req
14. Listen, Joe,
Copy !req
15. if you take more nasty hits in the next round, you'll be out.
Copy !req
16. Aoyama is trying to win by KO.
Copy !req
17. Those are the kind of punches he's throwing at you!
Copy !req
18. You stupid lout, what are you doing!
Copy !req
19. Shut your mouth!
Copy !req
20. You have a problem with him?
Copy !req
21. Uh, no, not really…
Copy !req
22. Joe!
Copy !req
23. Aoyama thinks he can knock me out, eh?
Copy !req
24. Now that you mention it, he was aiming for my jaw a lot the second half of that round…
Copy !req
25. “The basics,” eh… ?
Copy !req
26. Joe! The basics!
Copy !req
27. You mustn't forget the basics!
Copy !req
28. I get it, Nishi.
Copy !req
29. That's all I can fall back on now.
Copy !req
30. For the Sake of Tomorrow #1: Left Jab.
Copy !req
31. To get your attack through,
Copy !req
32. or to slow down your opponent, you continuously punch with your left.
Copy !req
33. Keep your left elbow close to your body, aim slightly inside,
Copy !req
34. and punch with a drilling motion.
Copy !req
35. Then you strike!
Copy !req
36. Using a straight right that tags onto the jabs…
Copy !req
37. that power can be multiplied three or four fold!
Copy !req
38. Idiot!
Copy !req
39. Joe! Have you forgotten?
Copy !req
40. The basics! Get back to the basics!
Copy !req
41. Joe!
Copy !req
42. Joe! The basics! The basics!
Copy !req
43. It could have been a close fight.
Copy !req
44. Joe! Joe! Joe! Joe! Joe!
Copy !req
45. Where did those punches go?
Copy !req
46. The punches you use to protect your freedom!
Copy !req
47. Where did it go!
Copy !req
48. Those punches that compete with Rikiishi's, where did they go!
Copy !req
49. Stop it, Nishi.
Copy !req
50. I'm trying my best.
Copy !req
51. I'm fighting the fight of my life.
Copy !req
52. I'm taking this fight seriously.
Copy !req
53. But it's not good enough.
Copy !req
54. Not today…
Copy !req
55. The punch that's kept me going for this long doesn't work anymore.
Copy !req
56. “Free”. “Boxing”.
Copy !req
57. 1!
Copy !req
58. 2!
Copy !req
59. 3!
Copy !req
60. I can hear the sound of the ocean.
Copy !req
61. This feels great.
Copy !req
62. Hey there, uncle.
Copy !req
63. Long time, no see.
Copy !req
64. Where've you been all this time?
Copy !req
65. Come on, let's go home.
Copy !req
66. Let's stop these stupid and pointless things.
Copy !req
67. Look at that, uncle.
Copy !req
68. It's the ocean.
Copy !req
69. Uncle, stop it.
Copy !req
70. I've quit this stupid boxing.
Copy !req
71. Uncle, wait for me.
Copy !req
72. I quit!
Copy !req
73. Don't go, uncle!
Copy !req
74. I'll do it! I'll fight Aoyama!
Copy !req
75. The real fight begins now!
Copy !req
76. 5!
Copy !req
77. 6!
Copy !req
78. 7!
Copy !req
79. 8!
Copy !req
80. 9!
Copy !req
81. He stood up!
Copy !req
82. Joe stood up!
Copy !req
83. Joe!
Copy !req
84. Look at that!
Copy !req
85. He'll still fight?
Copy !req
86. Grandfather, look!
Copy !req
87. Look at his eyes!
Copy !req
88. Now that's surprising.
Copy !req
89. Completely unlike before, his eyes are very vulnerable now.
Copy !req
90. This is the first time...
Copy !req
91. The first time I've ever seen that look in his eyes.
Copy !req
92. Fight!
Copy !req
93. All right!
Copy !req
94. Go all the way, Aoyama!
Copy !req
95. Aoyama, don't let us down!
Copy !req
96. Hey, Yabuki! What's wrong with you?
Copy !req
97. Yes, Yabuki, what's that pose supposed to mean?
Copy !req
98. Too many blows to the head make you lose your marbles?
Copy !req
99. That stance is completely wrong for a boxer!
Copy !req
100. You look like a turtle hiding in his shell!
Copy !req
101. What a loser!
Copy !req
102. You had enough and ready to give up?
Copy !req
103. Why don't you do us all a favour and give up!
Copy !req
104. I'll bet you're pretty sorry about being wrong, Joe?
Copy !req
105. They're right… That's a very undignified stance.
Copy !req
106. It's a very silly pose.
Copy !req
107. Protecting his face…
Copy !req
108. and protecting his chest.
Copy !req
109. That pose is exactly like a turtle hiding in his shell.
Copy !req
110. But… look at his vulnerability.
Copy !req
111. Look at his sense of urgency!
Copy !req
112. It's a side of Joe no one has ever seen before!
Copy !req
113. It's a new Joe!
Copy !req
114. Hey, uncle.
Copy !req
115. Hey, Aoyama.
Copy !req
116. Don't get me wrong...
Copy !req
117. It's not that I don't fear you both as a team.
Copy !req
118. To the awesomeness of fighting itself…
Copy !req
119. to the deepness itself…
Copy !req
120. to the bottomless strength and potential...
Copy !req
121. I am bowing my head to that.
Copy !req
122. Up until now…
Copy !req
123. I thought Ao's weak punches were harmless. I laughed at them.
Copy !req
124. But from this point onward, I will fight much more defensively
Copy !req
125. so that I won't lose.
Copy !req
126. But more than that...
Copy !req
127. So that I can be victorious in this scary world of boxing.
Copy !req
128. That's it.
Copy !req
129. Do you understand?
Copy !req
130. Won't you fight?
Copy !req
131. You two, why are just standing around!
Copy !req
132. Just do it!
Copy !req
133. Ao!
Copy !req
134. Go get him!
Copy !req
135. Ao!
Copy !req
136. Aoyama, go to him. Fight him.
Copy !req
137. Y-Yes, sir.
Copy !req
138. But…
Copy !req
139. Th-This is the first time I've seen that sort of “turtle” stance before.
Copy !req
140. What's wrong, Aoyama?
Copy !req
141. Stop wasting time!
Copy !req
142. You're just another punch away from a KO!
Copy !req
143. Go, Ao!
Copy !req
144. Now, I wonder about that assessment.
Copy !req
145. With that stance, I think Joe has just become a more frightening adversary.
Copy !req
146. Aoyama, don't let yourself get flustered just because your opponent's stance has changed.
Copy !req
147. He finally remembered to defend himself, that's all.
Copy !req
148. Come on. Go and fight him!
Copy !req
149. Look what Joe is doing!
Copy !req
150. His footwork… H-He's started using his feet!
Copy !req
151. Yohko, my dear.
Copy !req
152. You chose a very good day for me to come here.
Copy !req
153. I'm very grateful.
Copy !req
154. What?
Copy !req
155. Joe. First footwork, now defence…
Copy !req
156. He's found the way I've been training Aoyama, and is mirroring it back at him!
Copy !req
157. To imitate the techniques of your opponent, and use them as a weapon against him…
Copy !req
158. Unreal… I knew it! Joe's abilities are phenomenal!
Copy !req
159. H-He hit him!
Copy !req
160. All right! Joe finally got a punch in!
Copy !req
161. Return to your corners!
Copy !req
162. Wonderful.
Copy !req
163. What a wonderful match.
Copy !req
164. Fight!
Copy !req
165. Up until just now, I doubted that other boy, believing that Aoyama would win.
Copy !req
166. But, I'm not angry that I was wrong, I'm deeply moved.
Copy !req
167. Boxing is a very wild sport by its nature.
Copy !req
168. But the reason it's evolved to where it is today can be clearly seen in this match.
Copy !req
169. It's not just the attacks, it's the amazing strength one finds in the very instinct of self-defence.
Copy !req
170. And right now, this young man has shown with his body
Copy !req
171. that this is “King of all Sports,” beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Copy !req
172. Joe, are you all right?
Copy !req
173. Don't mind me.
Copy !req
174. Go tend to Ao, uncle.
Copy !req
175. Aoyama!
Copy !req
176. Joe... the fact that you won means once again a chance that you'll fight the great Rikiishi.
Copy !req
177. But, on the other hand, Danpei…
Copy !req
178. It looks like your little plan has produced results far beyond your wildest dreams.
Copy !req
179. So, uncle, why'd you call me out here?
Copy !req
180. U-Um, what would you wish to discuss with us?
Copy !req
181. What's up? Moping around like that…
Copy !req
182. I've come this far to see you.
Copy !req
183. Look at these scars. These bandages.
Copy !req
184. I really should be in intensive care.
Copy !req
185. Aoyama… and Joe.
Copy !req
186. I really am…
Copy !req
187. I really am sorry for how I've treated you both!
Copy !req
188. U-Uncle?
Copy !req
189. Mr. D-Danpei?
Copy !req
190. Please… find it in your hearts to forgive this old oaf.
Copy !req
191. Hey, wait a minute, uncle.
Copy !req
192. Why're you apologizing?
Copy !req
193. What are you suggesting you did wrong, sir?
Copy !req
194. Until today, I've been fighting an internal battle.
Copy !req
195. I wondered just how far I should play with other people's hearts and dreams.
Copy !req
196. Even though it was all for Joe's sake…
Copy !req
197. For my sake?
Copy !req
198. That's right.
Copy !req
199. It was for your sake, Joe.
Copy !req
200. I was only using Aoyama to make you stronger!
Copy !req
201. What are you saying, uncle?
Copy !req
202. It was for boxing!
Copy !req
203. Everything was for the sake of boxing!
Copy !req
204. Boxing is everything to me!
Copy !req
205. The reason I treated you badly, and shoved you away from me…
Copy !req
206. was because I had a duty to boxing to treat you that way so you would become better.
Copy !req
207. A duty as your coach...
Copy !req
208. Listen, Joe, in the martial arts world, we have this saying:
Copy !req
209. “Even the most ordinary coach equals ten fighters.”
Copy !req
210. Which means, a boxer can be as aggressive as he wants,
Copy !req
211. but without the technical backing of a coach, he'll just be an aggressor.
Copy !req
212. He'll never learn how to defend himself.
Copy !req
213. After all, those who take up fighting in the first place
Copy !req
214. tend to be stronger and more aggressive than normal men.
Copy !req
215. They can learn how to punch and kick on their own.
Copy !req
216. But they never learn to defend themselves.
Copy !req
217. Or rather, they never attempt to learn.
Copy !req
218. Even if they do learn, when it's time to fight, the fire overcomes them and everything slips away.
Copy !req
219. And someone who's very guilty of that is you, Joe.
Copy !req
220. As a coach, as just an ordinary man, I found myself in front of a big wall.
Copy !req
221. It was then, that…
Copy !req
222. Y-You mean me?
Copy !req
223. I used you.
Copy !req
224. B-Because I'm weak,
Copy !req
225. and it would be easier to teach me defence moves?
Copy !req
226. Yes, you are weak.
Copy !req
227. But you are blessed with a passion to become strong.
Copy !req
228. You have the perfect temperament to be trained for defence.
Copy !req
229. It was my plan to teach you the perfect defensive technique
Copy !req
230. so Joe would be mocked by it, and would then be forced to discover how to defend himself.
Copy !req
231. It's the easiest way to beat that technique into him.
Copy !req
232. It was all just an act to help Joe discover it on his own.
Copy !req
233. But my plan gave birth to something far bigger than I could have anticipated.
Copy !req
234. To protect his own body, without instruction from anyone, and with little regard to how he looked,
Copy !req
235. Joe used a defensive stance and tricky footwork.
Copy !req
236. I don't think you could have done better, even if you had been taught by the best coach.
Copy !req
237. And I wanted Joe to fall into a pit where he was all alone and no one tried to help him
Copy !req
238. so he could learn to climb out of that cruel place all by himself.
Copy !req
239. The fight against loneliness, the countless defensive techniques, they were all…
Copy !req
240. They were all For the Sake of Tomorrow lessons.
Copy !req
241. It was the sixth… and the seventh!
Copy !req
242. Joe, you did well.
Copy !req
243. I'm so proud of you for standing up to it!
Copy !req
244. You did well…
Copy !req
245. You did well.
Copy !req
246. Aoyama.
Copy !req
247. Yes, sir?
Copy !req
248. To you…
Copy !req
249. I must be… I must be…
Copy !req
250. No. Don't even say it.
Copy !req
251. You took me in, even though I'm such a weakling, and told me I could be successful if I tried!
Copy !req
252. Aoyama!
Copy !req
253. Th-That's become a valuable lesson that I will carry with me for the rest of my life!
Copy !req
254. Aoyama!
Copy !req
255. Thank you for putting up with me for so long.
Copy !req
256. Joe, what's gotten into you!
Copy !req
257. Hey, Ao.
Copy !req
258. Joe!
Copy !req
259. Joe, what was that…
Copy !req
260. Leave me alone for a while.
Copy !req
261. Listen, Ao,
Copy !req
262. I know I've hated you and made fun of you.
Copy !req
263. But, I'm sorry. I was wrong.
Copy !req
264. Yabuki!
Copy !req
265. When we fought, your punches really got to me.
Copy !req
266. I thought I'd give up countless times.
Copy !req
267. I'll never make fun of you again.
Copy !req
268. I won't let other men make fun of you either.
Copy !req
269. Though I suppose only an idiot would make fun of you now.
Copy !req
270. And as for you, uncle...
Copy !req
271. I think I've learned…
Copy !req
272. that I'm a real blockhead. Really.
Copy !req
273. But I'm tired of just waiting.
Copy !req
274. I want to become stronger.
Copy !req
275. And I want you to help me do that.
Copy !req
276. I won't lose to Rikiishi, either.
Copy !req
277. Joe!
Copy !req
278. The day of Rikiishi's release from the Juvenile Prison is set.
Copy !req
279. Rikiishi and Joe climb into a rain-soaked ring to settle their earlier draw.
Copy !req
280. Yohko writes it off as a small, insignificant match.
Copy !req
281. However!
Copy !req
282. Joe and Rikiishi's fight is a burning battle between men.
Copy !req
283. Now,
Copy !req
284. for joe, facing his final fight in the Juvenile Prison,
Copy !req
285. which way is tomorrow?
Copy !req
