1. Ma'am! I want two baskets of soba!
Copy !req
2. And take your time!
Copy !req
3. Hurry! Hurry! It's about to start!
Copy !req
4. Only two for so many of you?
Copy !req
5. Yes.
Copy !req
6. Come on, hurry! The TV! The TV!
Copy !req
7. All right, I'm coming!
Copy !req
8. Here you go!
Copy !req
9. This truly is an explosion of young power!
Copy !req
10. The representatives of Kantou and Kansai, who have fought through the tough preliminaries...
Copy !req
11. are now facing each other in the finals of this year's novice tournament!
Copy !req
12. I've been waiting for this!
Copy !req
13. I can't have you children just changing the channel...
Copy !req
14. Ma'am, if you live here,
Copy !req
15. you must've heard of Joe?
Copy !req
16. What? Joe will be on TV?
Copy !req
17. No, no. Joe's rival Rikiishi shall.
Copy !req
18. To know Joe, you have to know Rikiishi. That's the deal.
Copy !req
19. Now it's time for the fighters to enter the ring.
Copy !req
20. Hey.
Copy !req
21. Have any of you seen Joe?
Copy !req
22. What about brother Joe?
Copy !req
23. He borrowed some money from Noriko at the grocery
Copy !req
24. and then disappeared somewhere!
Copy !req
25. R-Really?
Copy !req
26. I hope he isn't desperate because he can't become a pro...
Copy !req
27. "There is no future for a man whose dreams are crushed..."
Copy !req
28. Hey!
Copy !req
29. How could you say that? Brother Joe's not like that!
Copy !req
30. Ow, ow, ow. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
31. Joe... Where have you gone?
Copy !req
32. Joe... Where have you gone?
Copy !req
33. So these are the novices who have fought through to this point...
Copy !req
34. They have some nice pictures.
Copy !req
35. Whatever the case,
Copy !req
36. this is the best chance I have to rebuild my bridge to the world of boxing.
Copy !req
37. Thank you for coming to today's matches.
Copy !req
38. I have an announcement to make.
Copy !req
39. The first match of the National Novice Tournament Finals is about to begin!
Copy !req
40. The first match will be for the Flyweight Championship.
Copy !req
41. "Sleepy" Sumino, representing East Japan,
Copy !req
42. against Golgo Kanayama, representing West Japan.
Copy !req
43. "Sleepy" Sumino, representing East Japan,
Copy !req
44. against Golgo Kanayama, representing West Japan.
Copy !req
45. It's starting... Must hurry...
Copy !req
46. Hey, brother!
Copy !req
47. Th-The match has started! Why are you just sitting there?
Copy !req
48. It's just the novice tournament. It's not so big a deal.
Copy !req
49. What?
Copy !req
50. You are well prepared, Mister!
Copy !req
51. I like to watch boxing even more than I like eating!
Copy !req
52. Oh, no! The match!
Copy !req
53. Now, then...
Copy !req
54. Fighters' waiting room.
Copy !req
55. No unauthorised entry...
Copy !req
56. Come on! Your match is about to start!
Copy !req
57. Hey, second!
Copy !req
58. Where is my second?
Copy !req
59. What shall I do with him?
Copy !req
60. What? You still have to use the lavatory?
Copy !req
61. Uh... I only could go a little, I was there to calm my nerves.
Copy !req
62. Well, I suppose you can't help being nervous.
Copy !req
63. Fine! Go quickly!
Copy !req
64. Oh, got to go, got to go...
Copy !req
65. Y-You!
Copy !req
66. You made me trip on purpose, didn't you?
Copy !req
67. What? You tripped over my leg?
Copy !req
68. Suppose I'd better watch my leg more closely...
Copy !req
69. What? You didn't notice, you say?
Copy !req
70. What's the matter, Kanagushi?
Copy !req
71. What are you dawdling for?
Copy !req
72. You see, he just fell over, and now he's blaming me for it.
Copy !req
73. He said he'd beat me up.
Copy !req
74. Wh-What!
Copy !req
75. Y-You yellow...
Copy !req
76. Hold it!
Copy !req
77. Don't you go causing trouble before the match.
Copy !req
78. Just hurry up and use the toilet!
Copy !req
79. Okay.
Copy !req
80. If he's the type to fall over after being tripped...
Copy !req
81. he must be a poor fighter.
Copy !req
82. What?
Copy !req
83. It's one thing if he faces a coward,
Copy !req
84. but in normal circumstances, he'd lose.
Copy !req
85. What are you talking about? How impolite!
Copy !req
86. Besides, this place is off-limits to those not authorised!
Copy !req
87. Well, I'm authorised, in a way.
Copy !req
88. Well, I'm authorised, in a way.
Copy !req
89. Now move it.
Copy !req
90. Wolf Kanagushi, eh?
Copy !req
91. That's a pretty cocky name.
Copy !req
92. Now, remember, don't panic! Stay calm, stay calm!
Copy !req
93. Y-Yes.
Copy !req
94. Pathetic.
Copy !req
95. He looks totally different from the picture.
Copy !req
96. Well then, we'll be watching you from the ringside.
Copy !req
97. Do your best, Rikiishi.
Copy !req
98. Oh?
Copy !req
99. Well if it isn't Yabuki!
Copy !req
100. We finally meet somewhere decent, young lady.
Copy !req
101. What have you come here for?
Copy !req
102. Oh, I don't really have any business here.
Copy !req
103. I just came here to visit.
Copy !req
104. Hey, Yabuki.
Copy !req
105. Have you come to celebrate my road to glory?
Copy !req
106. Glory?
Copy !req
107. Don't give me that.
Copy !req
108. This is just the novice tournament.
Copy !req
109. At best, it's seeing who's the best of the chicks.
Copy !req
110. Well, do your best.
Copy !req
111. Why has he come?
Copy !req
112. Joe's eyes looked very strange...
Copy !req
113. I have a bad feeling about this.
Copy !req
114. Let's see... "H-36"...
Copy !req
115. Where is that?
Copy !req
116. Hmm...
Copy !req
117. What? All the way in the back?
Copy !req
118. Not that it makes too much of a difference, but here I can't see the boxers' faces.
Copy !req
119. Hey, brother!
Copy !req
120. Well if it isn't Uncle I met earlier!
Copy !req
121. Don't you think that's a little bit of a poor seat for such a boxing fan like you?
Copy !req
122. You must be joking!
Copy !req
123. When you watch a play, the best seats are on the balcony! And same here!
Copy !req
124. Go, Wolf Kanagushi!
Copy !req
125. Wolf Kanagushi?
Copy !req
126. Hit him! Hit him, Wolf!
Copy !req
127. Hook! Hook!
Copy !req
128. Idiot! Straight right! Straight right!
Copy !req
129. As predicted in the "Golden Egg" advance reviews,
Copy !req
130. Wolf Kanagushi is throwing excellent punches!
Copy !req
131. He's one-sidedly beating Aizawa, the Kansai representative!
Copy !req
132. Wolf has driven Aizawa to the ropes,
Copy !req
133. and he's rushing him! What a rush!
Copy !req
134. And he throws a hook! Aizawa's trying to move left, but Wolf won't let him escape!
Copy !req
135. Wolf's right connected cleanly!
Copy !req
136. Uncle, is Wolf Kanagushi really that strong?
Copy !req
137. Uncle, is Wolf Kanagushi really that strong?
Copy !req
138. Oh, he's more than just strong!
Copy !req
139. The highlights of this year's novice tournament were the bantamweight Kanagushi...
Copy !req
140. and the featherweight Rikiishi! That's how good he is!
Copy !req
141. So I suppose I'd better take down that highlight first.
Copy !req
142. This will be fun.
Copy !req
143. Aizawa's knocked back into the ropes!
Copy !req
144. He can't move! His legs are giving way!
Copy !req
145. Coach Otaka of Asia Gym is looking on from the ringside, satisfied, at Wolf's sharp fight!
Copy !req
146. 1!
Copy !req
147. And there's his powerful stomach blow!
Copy !req
148. 2!
Copy !req
149. 3!
Copy !req
150. And the winner of the novice tournament for the bantamweight class, is Wolf Kanagushi, the "young wolf"!
Copy !req
151. 4!
Copy !req
152. 5!
Copy !req
153. 6!
Copy !req
154. 7!
Copy !req
155. 8!
Copy !req
156. 9!
Copy !req
157. 10!
Copy !req
158. Wolf Kanagushi!
Copy !req
159. Way to go, Asia Gym!
Copy !req
160. Let's see... He knocked him out in two minutes and 33 seconds...
Copy !req
161. Coach Otaka of the Asia Gym keeps putting out amazing novices, doesn't he?
Copy !req
162. Coach Otaka of the Asia Gym...
Copy !req
163. He was the one who forced uncle Danpei out of the boxing association.
Copy !req
164. This is more and more interesting!
Copy !req
165. Finally, next up is the featherweight final!
Copy !req
166. It's Rikiishi!
Copy !req
167. We've been waiting for you, Rikiishi!
Copy !req
168. Keep setting the KO record!
Copy !req
169. You can do it!
Copy !req
170. He's so cool!
Copy !req
171. Ouch!
Copy !req
172. Come on, Kinoko! Do you want me to leave a scar?
Copy !req
173. No... I'm sorry...
Copy !req
174. Rikiishi Toru is entering the ring!
Copy !req
175. And what popularity! You wouldn't think this the novice tournament!
Copy !req
176. The crowd is acting as if this is a world title match!
Copy !req
177. Rikiishi.
Copy !req
178. Do your best, Rikiishi.
Copy !req
179. Rikiishi, give it your all!
Copy !req
180. The "V" sign for "Victory"...
Copy !req
181. Thank you, Miss.
Copy !req
182. Everything he does is so extravagant! You'd never imagine he's just a novice!
Copy !req
183. How strange that no matter how much Rikiishi shows off, no one complains.
Copy !req
184. I can't watch Rikiishi fight a match all the way from up here.
Copy !req
185. H-Hey, brother!
Copy !req
186. Don't go up there or the officials will be angry!
Copy !req
187. Hey! Brother!
Copy !req
188. B-brother Joe's on TV!
Copy !req
189. You're right!
Copy !req
190. He looks so cool!
Copy !req
191. Ma'am! Hurry, you should see this!
Copy !req
192. What, where?
Copy !req
193. He's not there!
Copy !req
194. He was there, I swear!
Copy !req
195. Right?
Copy !req
196. Man, brother Joe's so lucky to be on TV!
Copy !req
197. Yabuki!
Copy !req
198. In the blue corner, the Featherweight Kansai Representative, from Okejima Boxing Club...
Copy !req
199. Hachisuka Saburo!
Copy !req
200. And in the red corner, the Featherweight Kantou Representative, from Shiraki Gym...
Copy !req
201. Rikiishi Toru!
Copy !req
202. Hey, Rikiishi! Pay attention!
Copy !req
203. Fight!
Copy !req
204. Something's wrong with Rikiishi!
Copy !req
205. It's like he didn't even hear the bell!
Copy !req
206. The sneaky Hachisuka has taken this chance to attack!
Copy !req
207. What's the matter, Rikiishi!
Copy !req
208. What!
Copy !req
209. This isn't like you at all!
Copy !req
210. What's wrong?
Copy !req
211. Rikiishi! What are you doing?
Copy !req
212. Don't look away in the middle of a fight!
Copy !req
213. Now!
Copy !req
214. And it connected!
Copy !req
215. It looks like that body shot took its toll!
Copy !req
216. Rikiishi is completely ignoring his opponent's cover!
Copy !req
217. He's throwing a storm of hammer punches that's completely breaking through his opponent's defence!
Copy !req
218. That was cool! You did it, Rikiishi!
Copy !req
219. Way to go, Rikiishi!
Copy !req
220. You're the novice champion!
Copy !req
221. It's only been 54 seconds since the first bell rang!
Copy !req
222. Rikiishi won with an overwhelming KO!
Copy !req
223. That was an amazing win as ever.
Copy !req
224. Rikiishi!
Copy !req
225. If it weren't this way I wouldn't have anyone to motivate me.
Copy !req
226. Especially in this job I'm about to start.
Copy !req
227. What's he trying to do?
Copy !req
228. Well, it looks like you're really popular with the media, eh?
Copy !req
229. Oh, Coach Otaka of the Asia Gym.
Copy !req
230. I heard your Rikiishi won by KO in 54 seconds!
Copy !req
231. Many congratulations!
Copy !req
232. Thank you so much. And also to you.
Copy !req
233. It looks like it was worth iyour resources to build a good gym!
Copy !req
234. A fighter like Rikiishi could very well take off as a world-class boxer soon!
Copy !req
235. Oh, please stop the flattery.
Copy !req
236. Your man, Wolf Kanagushi, is quite the fighter as well.
Copy !req
237. Isn't Wolf great? His name's pretty great, too!
Copy !req
238. He's the golden egg I've been raising all this time!
Copy !req
239. In three... no, two years...
Copy !req
240. In three... no, two years...
Copy !req
241. he'll be the world bantamweight champion!
Copy !req
242. May I get a shot of the future champion Kanagushi together with Rikiishi?
Copy !req
243. That'll be good! This'll be a big scoop!
Copy !req
244. Hey! Wolf's being cornered by some strange fan!
Copy !req
245. Strange fan?
Copy !req
246. Yes! He keeps pestering him to get his autograph!
Copy !req
247. Well, that's impressive! He's just the novice champion, and they want his autograph...
Copy !req
248. He's becoming famous!
Copy !req
249. Just tell him to give him his signature! He's a man destined for greatness, after all!
Copy !req
250. All right, I'll go.
Copy !req
251. A strange fan... Could it be...?
Copy !req
252. What seems to be the problem, Wolf?
Copy !req
253. Is that the boy who wants your autograph?
Copy !req
254. Yes.
Copy !req
255. Otaka, looks like your Wolf is pretty tightfisted!
Copy !req
256. Can't he give out an autograph or two?
Copy !req
257. I knew it. It's Yabuki.
Copy !req
258. Come on, Wolf. Just write something.
Copy !req
259. The reporters want a picture of you and Rikiishi.
Copy !req
260. Coach, this was the man who made Wolf trip before the fight.
Copy !req
261. What?
Copy !req
262. Never mind.
Copy !req
263. He'll leave if you give him your autograph!
Copy !req
264. Just sign!
Copy !req
265. Oh, you'll give me your autograph?
Copy !req
266. That makes me happy!
Copy !req
267. Give me your autograph book.
Copy !req
268. Here you go!
Copy !req
269. Here.
Copy !req
270. What is this!
Copy !req
271. Now, that should be enough, young man.
Copy !req
272. Wolf's a little busy right now, so would you mind leaving?
Copy !req
273. But man, this is sloppy handwriting!
Copy !req
274. Is this even writing?
Copy !req
275. They look more like drawings of worms!
Copy !req
276. Wow, this is terrible! Totally terrible!
Copy !req
277. Ah...
Copy !req
278. Wait, Wolf!
Copy !req
279. But...
Copy !req
280. You're funny, young man.
Copy !req
281. A boxer doesn't need good handwriting, you know!
Copy !req
282. It's all about punching, after all!
Copy !req
283. Well then, what about his punches?
Copy !req
284. I watched a bit of his match just now.
Copy !req
285. It was nothing special.
Copy !req
286. Call him the golden egg of the Asia Gym or whatever...
Copy !req
287. but I'd say I was watching a pickpocket's show.
Copy !req
288. P-Pickpocket!
Copy !req
289. That's right.
Copy !req
290. They weren't fair punches that broke the opponent's guard from the front, like Rikiishi's.
Copy !req
291. They were more like a pickpocket cutting purse strings.
Copy !req
292. They were dirty punches that lacked dignity!
Copy !req
293. I see now...
Copy !req
294. Joe is picking a fight with Wolf!
Copy !req
295. Throw this brat out!
Copy !req
296. Wait!
Copy !req
297. Let me handle this boy!
Copy !req
298. I've been waiting for this moment!
Copy !req
299. Th-The Cross Counter!
Copy !req
300. The secret punch that he used to draw our match in the prison's boxing tournament!
Copy !req
301. Wolf...
Copy !req
302. Wolf... Wolf...
Copy !req
303. No, no, no! Stop taking photos!
Copy !req
304. Stop taking photos!
Copy !req
305. No! Wolf!
Copy !req
306. Joe...
Copy !req
307. Yabuki...
Copy !req
308. Wolf! Hang in there, Wolf!
Copy !req
309. H-He's no amateur! He scored a draw with Wolf with just one punch!
Copy !req
310. The Cross Counter is an advanced technique, too!
Copy !req
311. Rikiishi appears to know this young man.
Copy !req
312. Yabuki Joe.
Copy !req
313. He's a bantamweight fighter from the Tange Boxing Club.
Copy !req
314. Tange!
Copy !req
315. Tange Boxing Club? Have you heard of that gym before?
Copy !req
316. I've never heard of it.
Copy !req
317. It's only natural that you don't know of it.
Copy !req
318. Tange Danpei, coach of the Tange Gym, was denied his license
Copy !req
319. due to the unanimous refusal of the Japanese Boxing Association coaches, beginning with Otaka over there.
Copy !req
320. So even though Yabuki Joe has amazing talent,
Copy !req
321. he can't even take the professional test.
Copy !req
322. He literally is a nameless fighter.
Copy !req
323. Mr. Shiraki! It's not like I was the only one that denied him his license!
Copy !req
324. Hey, isn't this Yabuki a Bantamweight?
Copy !req
325. And Wolf Kanagushi is a Bantamweight, too.
Copy !req
326. But he can't get a professional license because Otaka denied it.
Copy !req
327. He really got cheated, didn't he?
Copy !req
328. Hey!
Copy !req
329. You're making it look like I refused Tange Danpei his license
Copy !req
330. because I was afraid of this Yabuki fellow!
Copy !req
331. You're a coach who has trained two world champions!
Copy !req
332. It certainly would be possible for you.
Copy !req
333. This is all a big misunderstanding!
Copy !req
334. Besides, this is the first time I've met this Yabuki!
Copy !req
335. The problem was entirely with Tange personally!
Copy !req
336. I decided he would be detrimental to the boxing association, and denied him his professional license!
Copy !req
337. But you can't close your eyes to the fact that a fighter like him that could fight to a draw...
Copy !req
338. with Asia Gym's golden egg, Wolf Kanagushi, is barred from professional boxing, for whatever reason.
Copy !req
339. Please, don't report this!
Copy !req
340. He just let his guard down because he thought he was an amateur...
Copy !req
341. Whatever the case, the new novice champion and an unknown fighter fought to a double KO!
Copy !req
342. We can't abandon news as valuable as this!
Copy !req
343. It's almost the deadline!
Copy !req
344. We'd better hurry or we'll miss it!
Copy !req
345. Hey, wait! No! Please don't report on this!
Copy !req
346. With such a major incident as this, Coach Otaka will have to approve of Tange Gym.
Copy !req
347. You finally did it, Joe.
Copy !req
348. Just like you did in Juvenile Hall.
Copy !req
349. Joe slammed against the wall of the boxing association in his own way.
Copy !req
350. He bet his entire tomorrow on that blow.
Copy !req
351. With the tenacity of a stray dog, he has stood back up from the depths of despair!
Copy !req
352. Now, the one standing in Joe's way is the high school boxing champion.
Copy !req
353. Now, for Joe, who faces a well-trained elite boxer,
Copy !req
354. which way is tomorrow!
Copy !req
