- [thudding]
- [Joze breathing swiftly]
That looks pretty good.
- [Miyuki] Bad, bad, bad!
- Hmm?
[Miyuki] Oh, this is so bad!
[Miyuki panting]
[Joze] Miyuki, you okay? What's wrong?
[breathes shakily]
Makio, he's he's in danger!
[theme music playing]
[music halts]
[crowd cheering]
[dramatic music playing]
What's going on?
Is that
Yes.
That's Fujimaki, a wanted fugitive.
Yo, what's going on?
Father?
[announcer] Looks like we've got
a showdown between different schools.
What's going on?
And just who the hell are you?
[referee 2] Hey, answer us!
[Shozan] You two, step aside.
I'll handle this.
[referee 1] Oh, Sensei.
It's nice to see ya, Fujimaki.
Nagata had somewhere to be.
[Shozan] Yeah, I figured.
Well, this is something else.
Isn't it, Himekawa?
It is.
[Shozan] I guess your only option
is to fight, right?
It is.
[Shozan] That's settled, then.
Himekawa will fight you.
That's the standard that I expected.
[indistinct chatter]
[Shozan] Ladies and gentlemen!
Due to Nagata's injury,
the final round will be postponed.
- [crowd booing]
- [indistinct chatter]
And in the meantime,
our very own Tsutomu Himekawa
will face a reserve fighter,
Takemiya style's Juzo Fujimaki,
in the match of the century!
[crowd continues booing]
Listen up, Kuno!
Until this match is done,
you are not to interfere in any way.
Do you understand?
[Izumi] Master Matsuo.
[Shozan] Master Izumi.
I certainly hope you're not here
to try and stop this fight, are you?
[Izumi] Are you planning to fight in that?
[breathes shakily]
[Fujimaki] Sensei
[Izumi] This is my training gear.
- I carry it with me wherever I go.
- [tense music plays]
You should wear it for this fight.
Are you sure, Master?
I am.
[Fujimaki] Then I'll wear it proudly.
[Shozan] Hey, show him to a dressing room.
[man] Yes, sir.
[Hikita] Oh, my T Tamon!
You gotta see this!
You don't have to yell.
Well, what is it?
[Hikita] Look at this!
- Huh?
- [indistinct noises]
Um
Fujimaki
[announcer] Ladies and Gentlemen!
Presenting a special,
one-time-only showdown!
[crowd cheering]
[referee] Director!
Oh! Sorry!
Gentlemen, do your worst!
[crowd cheering]
- [Fujimaki grunts]
- [kick echoes]
[Himekawa grunts]
[grunts]
- [crowd gasps]
- [indistinct chatter]
[Fujimaki] Elegant, yet sharp
His whole body works together
with machine-like precision.
[Himekawa] So this is Fujimaki's
Takemiya style.
It's stronger and faster
than Soichiro Izumi's.
Got it.
[crowd continues cheering]
[tense music playing]
[grunts]
Counterattack.
This guy's really strong.
He studied Fujimaki, clocked his style.
[Miyuki] Come on, Makio. You can do this.
[swift exhale]
[Fujimaki straining]
[Shozan] Himekawa's kicks
are exceptional.
Fujimaki's arm will be wrecked
if he keeps blocking them.
What will you do, Juzo Fujimaki?
[exhales]
[tense music continues]
[crowd cheering]
That's amazing.
He just saw that tackle coming
and used his knee.
Man, that elbow strike
had some serious heft.
[exhales]
[dramatic swell]
[rapid whoosh]
[tense music playing]
[kick echoes]
Himekawa!
[breathes shakily]
Well that's surprising.
Never seen him take
a hit quite like that.
Not directly to the face.
I've never seen
I mean, that's
- [groans]
- [Himekawa exhales]
- [Fujimaki grunts]
- [Himekawa groans]
[Mifune] Hell, yeah!
[crowd cheering]
- [exhales]
- [music halts]
[man] Sensei.
Huh?
[police chief] Sir,
I need to ask you to move.
We were notified that a wanted fugitive
is inside this building.
[trainee] And I'm under strict orders
not to let anyone in here.
[chief] That doesn't apply to the police.
[trainee] I can't make any exceptions.
Okay.
I need to speak to who's in charge.
I am in charge.
Yes, but who told you
not to let anyone in?
[Shozan] That would be me.
[both breathe shakily]
[cop 1] That's Shozan Matsuo.
Amazing.
It's really him.
So what's the matter?
[chief] We were notified that
a wanted fugitive is in that building.
Are you aware of this?
Ah, yes I am.
Okay.
Then you know we need to get in.
And once you're all in there?
[chief] We'll arrest him immediately.
No, I don't think so.
[chief] What?
[Shozan] We currently have
30,000 spectators in there.
You really wanna make your arrest
in front of that audience?
[chief] No, that is not our intention.
But the fact remains
Well, you can't fire a gun
in front of a crowd like that.
So that means you think
you can take the beasts down by hand?
[chief] Well, we brought a lot of backup.
Yeah?
Okay. How about a test run?
[chief] Hmm?
You and your backup take me down,
defeat Shozan Matsuo,
and I'll let you in.
[chief breathes angrily]
[cop 1] Uh, chief.
Phone call.
[chief] Okay.
Yes?
What? MPD?
Oh.
- Public security's
- [chuckles]
I see.
Understood.
We'll stand by
until the match is finished.
However, we do ask that
you let us wait inside
so we can arrest him as soon as it's done.
[Shozan] Let them in.
[trainee] Yes sir!
[crowd cheering]
HOKUSHINKAN TOURNAMEN
[cheering amplifies]
[Joze] Himekawa's perception
is getting more accurate.
[Ranbo] This isn't looking good
for Fujimaki.
Don't say that!
Come on, man.
What are ya gonna do?
- [whoosh]
- [bones crackle]
[Fujimaki groans]
[Shozan] Whoo, that was close!
Looks like I made it, huh?
Oh, Kuno!
Good timing there.
I nearly had to beat up all those cops.
Yeah, the NPA and MPD
have different protocols,
so it took a minute to get through.
[grunts]
Come on, man.
You gotta start varying your offense.
No, this might be part of his strategy.
Huh?
[Sergeant] Counterattacks
require you to focus.
Looks like Himekawa's slowing down.
Bet now he's feeling the pain
from the German suplex.
The true strength of the Takemiya style
is all their joint locking techniques.
Fujimaki didn't have an opening before.
But now watch this.
[grunts]
- [grunts]
- [crowd cheering]
[bone crackling]
[Mifune] He's got it!
No, not quite.
[both grunting]
[exhales]
His right arm's in really bad shape.
Himekawa's kicks messed him up.
But looks like Himekawa's knee
is injured too.
[Izumi] It's a shame
he couldn't finish it with that move.
His remaining technique is
[Tanba] Will he use Tiger King?
[dramatic music playing]
[Fujimaki] Those eyes That look
I ran away from those eyes back then.
[dramatic swell]
But I knew
Saeko wasn't afraid of me.
I know she was saying,
"Thank you for killing him."
That scared me, and I ran from it.
But I shouldn't have run away.
And now,
the Juzo that ran away that day
will die!
[tense music playing]
[both grunting]
[crowd cheering]
[chuckles]
- [distorted swell]
- [Fujimaki grunts]
- [kick echoes]
- [grunts]
[groans softly]
[crowd continues cheering]
- [Ranbo groans]
- No way.
[Shozan] He countered
with a rolling thunder kick.
That's our Himekawa!
He waited for his chance.
That's it. That's the end.
[referee] Winner!
Himekawa
- Huh?
- [Himekawa breathes shakily]
He got up.
[grumbles]
[exhales, grunts]
- [kick echoes]
- [grunts softly]
[cheering continues]
Way to turn it around!
He's lost control now.
Huh?
[Ranbo] That's his instinct fighting,
not him.
[Fujimaki grunts]
[Miyuki] Isn't that dangerous?
[Shozan] Oh, now that's no joke.
Fujimaki's gone beyond his limit.
As the event organizer,
I can't just stand by
and let anyone get killed
- [Fujimaki grumbles]
- [Himekawa grunts]
[Fujimaki grunts]
[chuckles]
But this fight is amazing.
You can't expect me to stop it, right?
[both grunting]
[punch echoes]
[Fujimaki grumbles, exhales]
[Himekawa] Where is all
this speed coming from?
- [both grunt]
- [dramatic swell]
Incredible.
He might be faster than Shozan Matsuo!
[yells]
- [both grunting]
- [gentle music playing]
[groans]
[grunts]
[Fujimaki] I hear a song.
A song my mother used to sing to me.
Want to go fishing?
My old man taught me how to fish.
That's right. [chuckles softly]
Both of them are dead.
[Himekawa gasps]
[rapid whoosh]
[gentle music continues]
Tiger King!
- [grumbles]
- [Saeko] No, don't go!
[tense music playing]
He evaded it!
[Himekawa gasps]
[Fujimaki exhales]
[panting]
[Fujimaki] This is fun, Himekawa.
- [tense music halts]
- [gentle music continues]
[Himekawa grumbles]
[breathing heavily]
[exhales]
- [rapid whoosh]
- [Himekawa grunts]
[chokes]
Tiger King.
Perfect hit!
- [bone crack echoes]
- [Himekawa grunts]
[Himekawa groans]
[yell echoes]
[echo halts abruptly]
[total silence]
[Shozan] Himekawa, that sly dog!
He had that up his sleeve the whole time!
The moment Fujimaki tried
to apply the technique,
Himekawa relaxed
and used his own weight
to drop him head first.
Counter Tiger King.
[crowd cheering]
[breathing heavily]
Well done.
You defeated him!
- [Himekawa] This time
- Hmm?
[Himekawa] Yes.
But next time
who knows what'll happen.
Well, today, you are the winner.
Now, wave to all your fans.
[crowd continues cheering]
[cheering fades]
[Fujimaki grunts]
[breathes shakily]
[exhales shakily]
[exhales]
Listen, Fujimaki.
I have an ambitious dream.
However, that dream
is nothing without
the great Juzo Fujimaki.
So, go do your time, then come back.
Until then,
I, Shozan Matsuo, will remain active.
And when you do come back,
you and I will have a match.
Sound good to you?
[dramatic music playing]
[Saeko] Juzo
I I was so scared.
I couldn't say anything,
but on the inside, I was screaming.
I was screaming, "Don't go"
[crowd applauding]
[sharp swell]
[cheering fades]
- [music halts]
- [bird tweeting]
[woman] Stop, thief!
Someone stop him! He's got my bag!
- [Tamon] Hmm?
- [thief panting]
[thief yells, grunts]
[Hikita] Oh, you've got mad skills, Tamon!
Hmm?
[Hikita] That was awesome.
Do you know them?
No.
No, I don't.
[man] Dude, why are we back in Nara again?
[Tanba] I've got some research to do.
Wha Research?
[Tanba] The Takemiya School.
Yah!
Cause one day,
I'll get to fight him again.
[dramatic swell]
