6. Guess you passed, Master Mammoth Nishi.Copy !req
7. Congratulations on becoming a pro.Copy !req
8. Joe, there's no reason to get depressed over it.Copy !req
9. You just take the test again next month.Copy !req
10. Shut up! Who said I was depressed?Copy !req
11. I'm sorry I passed and you didn't, Joe.Copy !req
12. You see, I was expecting to fail.Copy !req
13. You see, I was expecting to fail.Copy !req
14. He's crazy!Copy !req
15. Get back here!Copy !req
16. Stop! Rope down!Copy !req
17. You!Copy !req
18. Stop! This isn't a fight!Copy !req
19. Stop! Stop it!Copy !req
20. Hold it!Copy !req
21. Lemme go!Copy !req
22. There was something wrong with me back then.Copy !req
23. That was pretty bad.Copy !req
24. Hey, Yabuki! Look this way, please!Copy !req
25. Yabuki, I'm sorry to hear that you failed the pro test!Copy !req
26. Can you let us know how you're feeling now?Copy !req
27. You fools!Copy !req
28. Who cares how I feel?Copy !req
29. Put away those cameras!Copy !req
30. So he failed...Copy !req
31. Are you disappointed?Copy !req
32. Oh, Grandpa... Even though Yabuki turned you down so severely,Copy !req
33. you still can't forget about him, can you?Copy !req
34. You're like a jilted lover.Copy !req
35. He really is something else for the papers to devote this much space over a pro test.Copy !req
36. That's because everything he does is flashy.Copy !req
37. He's not just flashy.Copy !req
38. He's a man worthwhile enough to make headlines.Copy !req
39. What do you mean by that?Copy !req
40. I wouldn't be afraid of a man who passed the pro test with ease.Copy !req
41. But I feel terror from a rough-and-tumble manCopy !req
42. whom even the test rejects.Copy !req
43. He failed the test.Copy !req
44. Yabuki's really done it this time.Copy !req
45. My, my...Copy !req
46. I'm surprised that even you are raving on about this delirious nonsense, Rikiishi.Copy !req
47. Aren't you most afraid of him, Miss?Copy !req
48. Now, then... I'm off to the gym to train.Copy !req
49. Next time, he'll pass at his own pace.Copy !req
50. If he passes the B-class test,Copy !req
51. he'll be qualified to fight six-round matches,Copy !req
52. without ever having to fight four-round ones.Copy !req
53. He's closing in on us.Copy !req
54. Well, then...Copy !req
55. Uncle...Copy !req
56. What, Nishi?Copy !req
57. Joe's finally done it, hasn't he?Copy !req
58. Aren't you happy, uncle?Copy !req
59. He failed to get the B-class license the first time,Copy !req
60. but he got it at his own pace this time!Copy !req
61. The B-class license, eh?Copy !req
62. What next?Copy !req
63. Hey, uncle...Copy !req
64. What is it?Copy !req
65. Joe just passed the pro test,Copy !req
66. but he doesn't look too happy about it.Copy !req
67. He's just too proud.Copy !req
68. He probably can't stomach the fact that someone as skilled as him would be tested.Copy !req
69. What can't I stomach?Copy !req
70. N-Nothing.Copy !req
71. It's nothing you need to know about.Copy !req
72. Oh, he's back!Copy !req
73. brother Joe!Copy !req

78. Reporters?Copy !req
79. They're here again?Copy !req
80. It's not just the reporters! Everyone in Slum Town knows!Copy !req
81. Whatever, let's just go!Copy !req
82. Come on!Copy !req
83. There he is!Copy !req
84. Congratulations! Congratulations, Joe!Copy !req
85. See? Everyone came!Copy !req
86. Joe! Congratulations!Copy !req
87. Welcome home! Lemme be the first to fill your cup!Copy !req
88. Yahoo! Hooray!Copy !req
89. Hey! Three cheers for the world champion!Copy !req
90. Yabuki!Copy !req
91. Oh my. The people in this town will use any excuse to throw a party.Copy !req
92. Hey, Nishi! Joe! Kenkichi, you're late!Copy !req
93. Come on, Joe! Have a drink!Copy !req
94. Father!Copy !req

103. Did they go home?Copy !req
104. They all took off.Copy !req
105. Took off?Copy !req
106. Well... They...Copy !req
107. The reporters drove up to the bridge and waited to interview Joe...Copy !req
108. We salvaged their cars and sold the parts to buy sake and food!Copy !req
109. Well, what's done is done! Nothing we can do now!Copy !req
110. Y-You must be joking!Copy !req
111. Well, it's got nothing to do with you! Come on! Let's party it up!Copy !req
112. Hey! Let's light some fireworks to set this place alight!Copy !req
113. Oh, I've been waiting for this!Copy !req
114. I made this by collecting toy fireworks just for today!Copy !req
115. Stand back! It's dangerous!Copy !req
116. What was that? That was more like a bubble in a bathtub than a firework!Copy !req
117. Oh, sorry!Copy !req
118. Ah... This one'll be good, just you watch!Copy !req
119. I guess I put in too much gunpowder...Copy !req
120. Yes, too much!Copy !req
121. Shut up!Copy !req
122. Blockhead!Copy !req
123. That's enough fireworks! Raise the banners!Copy !req
124. Well? Don't they look swell?Copy !req
125. Today's a special day, Danpei!Copy !req
126. There have been so many men who have crossed the Bridge of Tears into the slums with tears in their eyes,Copy !req
127. but no one's ever crossed it with their eyes filled with hope!Copy !req
128. But now three men are about to take flight!Copy !req

130. That's right! This joy is not yours alone!Copy !req
131. It's everyone's joy!Copy !req
132. You're the beacons of hope for everyone in the slums!Copy !req
133. Yes!Copy !req
134. We'll be cheering you on from the slums!Copy !req
135. That's right!Copy !req
136. Did you hear that?Copy !req
137. This is a big responsibility.Copy !req
138. W-Well, when you put it that way...Copy !req
139. What, Joe?Copy !req
140. Uncle! Fix me a match, quick! I'm itching to fight!Copy !req
141. I will beat down Rikiishi Toru in front of your very eyes!Copy !req
142. I'll do it!Copy !req
143. He's done it, just like I predicted.Copy !req
144. He's finally a pro boxer.Copy !req
145. Now you can fight him fair and square.Copy !req
146. Welcome! Four turnips, is that everything?Copy !req
147. I'll have two of these.Copy !req
148. Here you go. Thank you for your business.Copy !req
149. Could you hurry up, please?Copy !req
150. Right, right. You need pickled radish?Copy !req
151. That'll be 47 yen.Copy !req
152. I'm home!Copy !req
153. Welcome home!Copy !req
154. Where's Yabuki?Copy !req
155. He's inside, folding bags.Copy !req
156. What do you think you're doing!Copy !req
157. You're not paid to mess around!Copy !req
158. S-Sorry. I got carried away.Copy !req
159. Can't you be a little more serious?Copy !req
160. I-I understand. I'll be serious.Copy !req
161. Hey, that's today's newspaper! What are you thinking!Copy !req
162. I'm home!Copy !req
163. I guess not even you can stand up to my mother, Yabuki!Copy !req
164. Noriko, I will help out in the front, so you keep an eye on this boy.Copy !req
165. Yes! I'll come out after I've changed!Copy !req
166. Seriously... How can we have more employees but still be just as busy?Copy !req
167. Hey, I'm trying to be serious...Copy !req
168. Boxing Hour!Copy !req
169. Rikiishi will be on TV!Copy !req
170. Nori, what time is it?Copy !req
171. Hey, Nori?Copy !req
172. You stupid pervert!Copy !req
173. Go, Rikiishi! That's the way!Copy !req
174. Do an uppercut! Uppercut!Copy !req
175. Rikiishi's on the offensive!Copy !req
176. Yoshizawa can't move!Copy !req
177. Yoshizawa's becoming groggy! Oh, he's going for a clinch!Copy !req
178. And... Right, left!Copy !req
179. Yes, way to go, Rikiishi!Copy !req
180. Rush him!Copy !req
181. Please don't get mad at him, Mother.Copy !req
182. Yabuki's friend is on TV.Copy !req
183. I've done Yabuki's work for him, okay?Copy !req
184. And he's hit him with a right! Rikiishi throws a powerful uppercut!Copy !req
185. And Yoshizawa's down!Copy !req
186. Yahoo!Copy !req
187. Did you see that, Nishi?Copy !req
188. Rikiishi keeps getting better and better.Copy !req
189. He's established his reputation as a main event boxer.Copy !req
190. At this rate, it's only a matter of time before he makes it to the Japanese featherweight ranking.Copy !req
191. Once he's ranked, he can challenge the national featherweight champion.Copy !req
192. Then he can use that as a springboard to become Pan-Asian or even world champion.Copy !req
193. Compared to him, we've barely become pro boxers...Copy !req
194. Ah!Copy !req
195. I want a match right now! Eh, Nishi?Copy !req
196. Joe...Copy !req
197. We're assistants at Hayashi's now.Copy !req
198. Why don't you take it seriously?Copy !req
199. I know, and I don't care!Copy !req
200. Rikiishi!Copy !req
201. I can't sit here while he shows off!Copy !req
202. I'll go on ahead!Copy !req
203. W-Wait, Joe!Copy !req
204. What are you doing, Nishi?Copy !req
205. Just get changed and start training! Hurry!Copy !req
206. Hold on a second... I need to eat something...Copy !req
207. I'm so hungry I could die...Copy !req
208. You're no fun.Copy !req
209. Uncle!Copy !req
210. Welcome home, uncle!Copy !req
211. I'll prepare dinner. You go do some roadwork.Copy !req
212. What's the deal?Copy !req
213. We did our roadwork before we got to Hayashi's!Copy !req
214. Today's different.Copy !req
215. You should be happy. You've both got matches lined up!Copy !req
216. R-Really?Copy !req
217. When?Copy !req
218. The 21st of next month, at Korakuen Hall.Copy !req
219. Nishi, you're debuting in a four-round match, and Joe, you're in a six-round match.Copy !req
220. Yahoo!Copy !req
221. So, who's my opponent?Copy !req
222. His name's Murase Takeo.Copy !req
223. Murase?Copy !req
224. Never heard that name before.Copy !req
225. Well, forget about him.Copy !req
226. I want to fight Wolf or Rikiishi.Copy !req
227. Don't get conceited.Copy !req
228. Boxing isn't just about fighting.Copy !req
229. In the ring, Wolf really is a wolf.Copy !req
230. He's got dreadful claws and fangs.Copy !req
231. A wolf? He's just a mongrel...Copy !req
232. Will you do roadwork or not!Copy !req
233. Listen to what I say, or I'll kill you!Copy !req
234. Are you joking!Copy !req
235. Please, don't get so violent!Copy !req
236. Congratulations, brother Joe!Copy !req
237. brother Joe, congratulations!Copy !req
238. Congratulations.Copy !req
239. I hear you both have matches.Copy !req
240. Guess news travels fast.Copy !req
241. Of course!Copy !req
242. We hear about these things right away!Copy !req
243. What are you all doing here?Copy !req
244. Well, congratulations, Danpei!Copy !req
245. The day has finally been set!Copy !req
246. The day when Yabuki and Nishi will enter the ring!Copy !req
247. My blood's rushing just thinking about it!Copy !req
248. It's only a four-round and a six-round match.Copy !req
249. It's no weight on our shoulders like a world title match.Copy !req
250. That's just it!Copy !req
251. We need you to feel the weight on your shoulders!Copy !req
252. The hopes and dreams of everyone in the slums rest on you!Copy !req
253. Do your best!Copy !req
254. I'll be cheering you on!Copy !req
255. Well, yes... I'll do my best...Copy !req
256. Whoever this Murasa is, I can handle him.Copy !req
257. Right, Nishi?Copy !req
258. Isn't it kind of you to say that to Noriko?Copy !req
259. Y-You idiot! It's not like that!Copy !req
260. That's right, that's right!Copy !req
261. N-No!Copy !req
262. Hey, he's blushing!Copy !req
263. You little brat!Copy !req
264. I think the lady doth protest too much!Copy !req
265. That's not it at all, idiot.Copy !req
266. That's not it.Copy !req
267. It's just...Copy !req
268. I just thought about being a pro boxer.Copy !req
269. I've been wandering around the world, and failed at everything I did.Copy !req
270. But boxing has let me succeed at something.Copy !req
271. In other words, the world has let me become a pro.Copy !req
272. Great! I will make him my successor!Copy !req
273. Hey, Noriko! Get the present we've prepared for this day!Copy !req
274. Uh... here.Copy !req
275. For Danpei.Copy !req
276. It's a hat!Copy !req
277. I made it out of an old one.Copy !req
278. Wow, you're so thoughtful, Noriko!Copy !req
279. Uncle's head was so defenceless!Copy !req
280. You little whipper-snapper!Copy !req
281. These are for Nishi and Joe.Copy !req
282. What? For us?Copy !req
283. What's inside?Copy !req
284. You can't enter a ring with training shorts, can you?Copy !req
285. So I got you...Copy !req
286. B-B...Copy !req
287. B-Boxers.Copy !req
288. They even have our initials!Copy !req
289. She's blushing! Isn't she stupid?Copy !req
290. They're called trunks.Copy !req
291. You only had a hard time saying it because you called them boxers!Copy !req
292. You're so mean! Get back here!Copy !req
293. You look so cool!Copy !req
294. That's perfect!Copy !req
295. Hey, world champ!Copy !req
296. What? What about Nishi?Copy !req
297. He's too embarrassed to come out.Copy !req
298. What's there to be embarrassed about?Copy !req
299. He's not a girl, for crying out loud!Copy !req
300. Hurry and get out!Copy !req
301. Everyone wants to see you in your glory!Copy !req
302. That's easy for you to say...Copy !req
303. Come on, come on!Copy !req
304. They're riding high!Copy !req
305. Wow, look at him!Copy !req
306. They're a little tight, Miss Noriko!Copy !req
307. I'm sorry!Copy !req
308. I tried to make them as big as I could, but I'll fix them later!Copy !req
309. No, that won't be necessary!Copy !req
310. We have to get Nishi's weight down,Copy !req
311. so that he'll fit into those trunks when his match comes.Copy !req
312. We have a target to aim for now! Thank you!Copy !req
313. My...Copy !req
314. Well then, why don't we take a picture of you two in your trunks?Copy !req
315. All right, everyone line up!Copy !req
316. Okay.Copy !req
317. Okay? Say "cheese"!Copy !req
318. Cheese!Copy !req
319. What? I feel like we're missing someone...Copy !req
320. Really?Copy !req
321. It's Joe! Where did he go?Copy !req
322. He's in the gym doing somersaults!Copy !req
323. Somersaults!Copy !req
324. Yahoo!Copy !req
325. Oh, please!Copy !req
326. Come on, Nishi!Copy !req
327. Go!Copy !req
328. Oh, no!Copy !req
329. Yahoo!Copy !req
330. Yahoo!Copy !req
331. Ever since I was born...Copy !req
332. I have always been denied everything. But now I will seize my dream with these two hands...Copy !req
333. For the time being, I've been able to set them on the right track.Copy !req
334. Here in this tiny gym, deep in the slums...Copy !req
335. these two boxers I have trained in sweat and grime...Copy !req
336. will finally enter the glorious ring!Copy !req
337. Joe, who paved a path where there was none,Copy !req
338. has finally come to the point where he is welcomed into the ring!Copy !req
339. As the ring lights shine upon you as you lap up the roaring applause...Copy !req
340. Joe, this day, this night, is for you!Copy !req
341. Now, for Joe, who walks the shining path towards the ring,Copy !req
342. which way is tomorrow?Copy !req
