00:00:11,010 --> 00:00:16,683
<i>Chairman of Toyo Electric Power Co.
Katsumasa Hayami's coup broke out.</i>

2
00:00:17,434 --> 00:00:20,186
<i>But, in this confusion,</i>

3
00:00:20,270 --> 00:00:24,149
<i>there were those who acted separately
from Hayami's intentions.</i>

4
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:27,026
<i>Their objective was...</i>

5
00:00:27,986 --> 00:00:30,196
<i>Ohma Tokita.</i>

6
00:02:01,037 --> 00:02:05,959
MELEE

7
00:02:06,042 --> 00:02:09,170
{\an8}METSUDO KATAHARA
CHAIRMAN OF KENGAN ASSOCIATION

8
00:02:16,261 --> 00:02:19,472
{\an8}It's too bad, Hayami.

9
00:02:19,556 --> 00:02:22,392
You said you knew it all along.

10
00:02:22,475 --> 00:02:23,476
How?

11
00:02:24,102 --> 00:02:25,895
It doesn't matter.

12
00:02:26,729 --> 00:02:30,650
{\an8}If we kill the commander, it's our win.

13
00:02:33,486 --> 00:02:38,199
{\an8}Oh, hey.
We still have an interesting guy left.

14
00:02:38,283 --> 00:02:39,951
Back off.

15
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:43,371
He's mine.

16
00:02:44,581 --> 00:02:49,377
{\an8}I didn't like him from the moment we met.

17
00:02:49,460 --> 00:02:52,046
Quit barking, loser.

18
00:02:52,547 --> 00:02:56,509
You're just a dropout
who couldn't become the Fang.

19
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,651
Shit! Just how many of them are there?

20
00:03:13,735 --> 00:03:16,070
{\an8}<i>Kaneda, I'm counting on you.</i>

21
00:03:16,154 --> 00:03:20,033
{\an8}<i>Cosmo hasn't recovered yet.</i>

22
00:03:20,825 --> 00:03:22,911
What? You want to go back?

23
00:03:22,994 --> 00:03:24,829
What are you talking about?

24
00:03:25,455 --> 00:03:27,457
I can't leave Adam on his own.

25
00:03:29,751 --> 00:03:33,671
{\an8}Adam is holding out to let you escape.

26
00:03:34,339 --> 00:03:37,884
{\an8}We must get out of here and call for help!

27
00:03:39,677 --> 00:03:40,970
If we can get to...

28
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:42,222
Hold it.

29
00:03:43,097 --> 00:03:47,477
{\an8}Cosmo Imai and Suekichi Kaneda, right?

30
00:03:48,102 --> 00:03:51,272
You two are supplementary targets.

31
00:03:51,356 --> 00:03:53,149
Who are you guys?

32
00:03:53,233 --> 00:03:56,861
The people at the top are having
an important meeting right now.

33
00:03:57,570 --> 00:04:02,492
So, we need you to keep quiet for a while.

34
00:04:02,575 --> 00:04:08,498
President Ohya told me about them.
They're Toyo Electric Power's Guardians.

35
00:04:08,581 --> 00:04:09,749
But why now?

36
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:12,502
You don't want to die, do you?

37
00:04:13,169 --> 00:04:16,256
Just stay still.
That's all I'm asking for.

38
00:04:16,798 --> 00:04:18,508
A willow-leaf saber.

39
00:04:18,591 --> 00:04:21,678
If that hits us,
it'll easily chop our heads off!

40
00:04:23,596 --> 00:04:25,181
Hey, Cosmo!

41
00:04:25,682 --> 00:04:26,516
You see,

42
00:04:27,767 --> 00:04:30,395
it's my third round tomorrow.

43
00:04:57,797 --> 00:05:01,801
This sword cuts well.
I think I'm gonna keep it.

44
00:05:02,427 --> 00:05:05,555
Are you regretting this, asshole?

45
00:05:06,180 --> 00:05:10,310
You picked a fight with the wrong guy.

46
00:05:11,477 --> 00:05:15,231
Cosmo, don't! You'll be sliced in two!

47
00:05:16,274 --> 00:05:21,988
I don't know what you're up to,
but you can't keep that up forever!

48
00:05:22,822 --> 00:05:24,407
<i>He's dodging it!</i>

49
00:05:24,991 --> 00:05:28,578
<i>I can feel it. I'm onto something.</i>

50
00:05:29,245 --> 00:05:32,540
<i>I have to master it.</i>

51
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:37,337
<i>This kid, he's trying something out.</i>

52
00:05:38,129 --> 00:05:40,089
<i>Don't underestimate me.</i>

53
00:05:46,387 --> 00:05:49,599
{\an8}KAZUO YAMASHITA
PRESIDENT OF YAMASHITA CORPORATION

54
00:05:53,144 --> 00:05:54,395
{\an8}Mr. Yamashita.

55
00:05:54,479 --> 00:05:55,313
{\an8}HARUO KOHNO
FIGHTER FOR NENTENDO

56
00:05:56,105 --> 00:05:58,066
Haruo!

57
00:05:58,649 --> 00:05:59,901
Run.

58
00:06:05,364 --> 00:06:06,866
I found you.

59
00:06:07,742 --> 00:06:10,036
You're Ohma Tokita's employer, correct?

60
00:06:10,620 --> 00:06:12,914
{\an8}This building will collapse soon.

61
00:06:13,581 --> 00:06:17,794
{\an8}Take Ohma Tokita with you
and escape while you can.

62
00:06:17,877 --> 00:06:21,297
W-Who are you?

63
00:06:21,380 --> 00:06:24,759
You're telling us to escape
while attacking us?

64
00:06:25,343 --> 00:06:27,136
Don't get me wrong.

65
00:06:28,763 --> 00:06:32,141
You think I'm letting you go
out of good will?

66
00:06:32,892 --> 00:06:34,727
"Keep Ohma Tokita alive."

67
00:06:35,394 --> 00:06:38,147
That was my only order.

68
00:06:38,231 --> 00:06:39,398
Keep him alive?

69
00:06:39,482 --> 00:06:41,776
Who gave you the order?

70
00:06:41,859 --> 00:06:43,361
You don't need to know.

71
00:06:43,945 --> 00:06:47,031
Even if you knew,
there's nothing you can do.

72
00:06:56,749 --> 00:06:58,709
Ohma!

73
00:06:59,418 --> 00:07:01,087
You've woken up!

74
00:07:01,671 --> 00:07:03,214
I guess he's able to move.

75
00:07:04,173 --> 00:07:07,051
<i>Hayami's Guardians will show up soon.</i>

76
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,011
<i>I need to hurry.</i>

77
00:07:09,637 --> 00:07:11,305
<i>I don't need that guy anymore.</i>

78
00:07:11,389 --> 00:07:14,058
That man attacked us and told us to run...

79
00:07:14,142 --> 00:07:15,643
<i>Right, let's kill him.</i>

80
00:07:23,943 --> 00:07:25,695
You're way too obvious.

81
00:07:30,575 --> 00:07:34,036
You won't even be enough
for my morning exercise.

82
00:07:34,662 --> 00:07:35,788
{\an8}Get lost.

83
00:07:35,872 --> 00:07:36,914
{\an8}OHMA TOKITA
FIGHTER FOR YAMASHITA CORPORATION

84
00:07:40,209 --> 00:07:44,714
<i>He moved immediately into his fist range
and nullified his sword range.</i>

85
00:07:48,050 --> 00:07:50,928
<i>Pulling off such moves
when he's heavily wounded...</i>

86
00:07:51,804 --> 00:07:56,642
<i>Come to think of it,
he no longer looks unstable.</i>

87
00:07:57,226 --> 00:07:59,687
I'll say it for the last time.

88
00:08:00,730 --> 00:08:02,732
Get lost already.

89
00:08:08,196 --> 00:08:11,657
Seems like you do qualify as
a "Vessel of the Tiger."

90
00:08:12,241 --> 00:08:16,037
What do you know about me?

91
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:19,916
Orders are absolute.

92
00:08:27,256 --> 00:08:30,676
I'll have to take you by force!

93
00:08:31,761 --> 00:08:36,015
That's Ohma's Life Advance!

94
00:08:38,059 --> 00:08:43,731
I had completely forgotten
its real name until now.

95
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:45,858
<i>"Possessed by a God."</i>

96
00:08:45,942 --> 00:08:48,361
POSSESSED BY A GOD

97
00:08:48,945 --> 00:08:51,030
I guess you're not lying.

98
00:08:51,656 --> 00:08:54,617
So, you're the Bugs' messenger.

99
00:08:55,201 --> 00:08:56,118
"The Bugs"?

100
00:08:58,955 --> 00:09:01,165
Stay back, Kazuo Yamashita.

101
00:09:01,832 --> 00:09:04,752
I don't think he's gonna back down.

102
00:09:06,045 --> 00:09:10,174
The enemy is in perfect condition
and he can even use Life Advance!

103
00:09:10,758 --> 00:09:13,135
What are you going to do, Ohma?

104
00:09:13,761 --> 00:09:17,932
Get ready, Ohma Tokita.

105
00:10:01,350 --> 00:10:03,978
Okay, take a break until morning.

106
00:10:04,854 --> 00:10:07,690
Make sure to rest up, Ohma.

107
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:16,699
<i>How many days has it been?</i>

108
00:10:18,743 --> 00:10:20,411
<i>Not that it matters.</i>

109
00:10:21,621 --> 00:10:24,707
<i>With these shackles on my hands and legs,</i>

110
00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:29,670
<i>there's no way I can beat Niko
however many days I try.</i>

111
00:10:35,468 --> 00:10:39,096
<i>Hang on. If I think about it,</i>

112
00:10:39,722 --> 00:10:42,892
<i>why did he put these weights on me?</i>

113
00:10:43,517 --> 00:10:47,688
<i>Niko didn't care about
how much they weighed.</i>

114
00:10:48,356 --> 00:10:49,607
<i>Never mind.</i>

115
00:10:49,690 --> 00:10:51,567
<i>They're about 40 kilograms in total.</i>

116
00:10:51,651 --> 00:10:54,153
<i>Man, you really don't care, huh?</i>

117
00:10:54,236 --> 00:10:58,407
<i>That means,
these aren't for strengthening my muscles.</i>

118
00:10:59,158 --> 00:11:04,538
<i>It's unnatural for me to fight Niko with
a handicap when he's stronger than me.</i>

119
00:11:05,247 --> 00:11:07,333
<i>What is he trying to do?</i>

120
00:11:08,626 --> 00:11:10,127
<i>Think.</i>

121
00:11:16,550 --> 00:11:21,931
<i>Damn it.
I don't even have the energy to get up.</i>

122
00:11:22,848 --> 00:11:26,602
<i>I need to rest in a comfortable position.</i>

123
00:11:31,023 --> 00:11:34,026
<i>Th-That's it!</i>

124
00:11:41,784 --> 00:11:43,577
{\an8}NIKO TOKITA
NIKO STYLE, OHMA'S MASTER

125
00:11:44,161 --> 00:11:45,329
Not bad.

126
00:11:46,664 --> 00:11:48,791
You got a hit at last

127
00:11:49,458 --> 00:11:54,964
You've finally reached the starting line
for mastering the secret technique.

128
00:11:55,631 --> 00:11:57,341
The real training starts now.

129
00:11:58,801 --> 00:12:01,011
Take your weights off, Ohma.

130
00:12:01,595 --> 00:12:03,514
I'll take mine off too.

131
00:12:04,473 --> 00:12:07,143
Don't die on me, Ohma.

132
00:12:07,726 --> 00:12:10,646
<i>He had twice the weight I had on.</i>

133
00:12:12,314 --> 00:12:14,650
<i>You really are...</i>

134
00:12:15,484 --> 00:12:17,153
<i>a monster.</i>

135
00:12:17,778 --> 00:12:19,488
<i>His whole body was wounded.</i>

136
00:12:20,531 --> 00:12:22,783
<i>Broken bones and ruptured muscles.</i>

137
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:25,744
<i>He no longer felt any pain.</i>

138
00:12:27,037 --> 00:12:29,290
<i>Chills ran down his entire body.</i>

139
00:12:29,874 --> 00:12:33,961
<i>He could barely stand.</i>

140
00:12:34,044 --> 00:12:35,087
<i>But...</i>

141
00:12:36,130 --> 00:12:38,966
<i>My body feels
more stable than ever before.</i>

142
00:12:40,092 --> 00:12:42,094
<i>Niko mentioned it before.</i>

143
00:12:43,137 --> 00:12:47,475
<i>Is this how it feels
to stand with your bones?</i>

144
00:12:48,684 --> 00:12:51,145
You've endured the training well.

145
00:12:51,729 --> 00:12:55,483
What you really seek
can be found beyond death.

146
00:12:56,775 --> 00:13:00,237
So, grab on to life.

147
00:13:04,783 --> 00:13:06,952
<i>The accumulated damage.</i>

148
00:13:07,536 --> 00:13:10,664
<i>Malnutrition and extreme fatigue.</i>

149
00:13:11,332 --> 00:13:13,918
<i>His body, that had reached its limit,</i>

150
00:13:14,919 --> 00:13:18,797
<i>exhibited an extraordinary level
of concentration.</i>

151
00:13:24,512 --> 00:13:25,471
<i>I can see.</i>

152
00:13:26,013 --> 00:13:29,934
<i>I can feel the surrounding area
with my five senses.</i>

153
00:13:30,976 --> 00:13:33,687
<i>And I can feel Niko's movements too!</i>

154
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:36,899
<i>His final strike is Ironbreaker!</i>

155
00:13:56,794 --> 00:14:00,381
I'll just have to blow up the venue.

156
00:14:00,965 --> 00:14:05,386
Katahara, I'll drag your
Kengan Association down with me.

157
00:14:14,645 --> 00:14:17,022
W-What?

158
00:14:17,106 --> 00:14:21,277
Why? Why won't it detonate?

159
00:14:21,860 --> 00:14:24,446
It's over, Katsumasa Hayami.

160
00:14:25,322 --> 00:14:27,366
The bombs won't go off.

161
00:14:27,449 --> 00:14:29,326
So, it's you.

162
00:14:29,910 --> 00:14:32,496
You're the traitor!

163
00:14:32,580 --> 00:14:36,959
{\an8}I've already notified
the Heavenly Wolves about your plan.

164
00:14:37,543 --> 00:14:41,338
<i>The bombs were defused
during the second round.</i>

165
00:14:42,256 --> 00:14:47,761
<i>All your Guardians should be
suppressed by the Kure family by now.</i>

166
00:14:48,429 --> 00:14:51,015
Damn you, Katahara.

167
00:14:51,098 --> 00:14:54,268
How could you!

168
00:14:56,145 --> 00:14:59,523
You seem to have misunderstood.

169
00:15:00,316 --> 00:15:04,695
I'm not the one who hired Hassard.

170
00:15:05,362 --> 00:15:06,280
That's right.

171
00:15:07,406 --> 00:15:09,241
<i>The man who hired me is...</i>

172
00:15:10,409 --> 00:15:11,619
{\an8}HIDEKI NOGI
PRESIDENT OF NOGI GROUP

173
00:15:11,702 --> 00:15:13,495
{\an8}<i>Mr. Hideki Nogi.</i>

174
00:15:14,788 --> 00:15:16,206
<i>Nogi?</i>

175
00:15:16,707 --> 00:15:22,212
<i>Are you telling me
that rookie has outsmarted me?</i>

176
00:15:22,713 --> 00:15:26,508
He rescued me out of the sea

177
00:15:26,592 --> 00:15:31,055
and asked me to be the secret messenger
who corrects the wrongdoer.

178
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,808
The man saved my life.
I must return the favor.

179
00:15:35,893 --> 00:15:38,812
You did quite well.

180
00:15:39,396 --> 00:15:43,943
You may have surpassed me
if we went against each other one-on-one.

181
00:15:44,026 --> 00:15:49,198
But that great power of yours
proved to be fatal.

182
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:53,953
Tripped up by those
who you considered to be beneath you.

183
00:15:54,536 --> 00:15:57,873
This is a very fitting end for you.

184
00:15:58,415 --> 00:16:02,586
Well, I guess it was a good time killer.

185
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:06,298
Good work, Hayami.

186
00:16:08,425 --> 00:16:11,553
You bastards!

187
00:16:15,099 --> 00:16:16,392
It's me.

188
00:16:18,727 --> 00:16:22,564
I see. Hayami's plan failed, huh?

189
00:16:23,357 --> 00:16:26,026
After all the help I gave him.

190
00:16:27,987 --> 00:16:29,530
Saved by the bell.

191
00:16:30,155 --> 00:16:32,032
I no longer have a reason to fight.

192
00:16:34,284 --> 00:16:35,160
Hey!

193
00:16:43,669 --> 00:16:46,839
<i>W-What the hell!</i>

194
00:16:47,548 --> 00:16:52,594
<i>He defeated a guy using Life Advance
as if he were fighting a child.</i>

195
00:16:52,678 --> 00:16:54,930
<i>A-And...</i>

196
00:16:56,515 --> 00:16:59,184
<i>What was that last move?</i>

197
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:07,192
Excellent.

198
00:17:08,944 --> 00:17:14,491
Niko Style secret technique,
"Demon Slaughterer" has been passed on.

199
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:29,965
Death to an evil.

200
00:17:30,924 --> 00:17:32,176
{\an8}I am justice.

201
00:17:32,259 --> 00:17:33,093
{\an8}SEISHU AKOYA
FIGHTER FOR WAKASAKA LIFE INSURANCE

202
00:17:33,177 --> 00:17:36,930
I thought something shady was going on.

203
00:17:37,765 --> 00:17:40,642
You're the hitman
working for Toyo Electric.

204
00:17:43,103 --> 00:17:44,980
Seishu Akoya.

205
00:17:45,731 --> 00:17:47,149
It's you.

206
00:17:48,233 --> 00:17:51,570
{\an8}Don't kill him. That's our master's order.

207
00:18:00,287 --> 00:18:02,664
<i>Coup suppressed.</i>

208
00:18:13,258 --> 00:18:16,178
What a carefree bunch.

209
00:18:16,762 --> 00:18:19,139
They don't know
what went on behind the scenes.

210
00:18:20,432 --> 00:18:22,476
Come on, that's fine.

211
00:18:22,559 --> 00:18:25,187
The threat is gone.

212
00:18:25,270 --> 00:18:27,981
Do you really think that?

213
00:18:28,065 --> 00:18:33,028
{\an8}It seems like the Bugs,
who controls Asia's underground society,

214
00:18:33,112 --> 00:18:34,738
{\an8}were pulling the strings.

215
00:18:35,322 --> 00:18:37,616
Those pests.

216
00:18:37,699 --> 00:18:40,160
They used Hayami as their puppet

217
00:18:40,244 --> 00:18:45,332
and planned to take over
the Kengan Association from the inside.

218
00:18:46,792 --> 00:18:51,797
Well, they'll probably lay low for a while
after what happened today.

219
00:18:52,631 --> 00:18:56,760
By the way,
I've also received a curious report.

220
00:18:57,302 --> 00:19:03,058
Apparently, they were trying to kidnap
Ohma Tokita in the confusion.

221
00:19:05,227 --> 00:19:10,399
So, that man has been
marked by the Bugs too.

222
00:19:10,482 --> 00:19:13,777
Who on earth is he?

223
00:19:16,738 --> 00:19:18,907
I wonder.

224
00:19:23,287 --> 00:19:28,709
{\an8}Those who don't know what went on
are acting so complacently!

225
00:19:28,792 --> 00:19:31,170
{\an8}We were able to prevent it beforehand,

226
00:19:31,253 --> 00:19:33,630
{\an8}so it's probably better
that they don't know.

227
00:19:34,173 --> 00:19:37,843
{\an8}I don't know if we can call that
preventing it beforehand though.

228
00:19:38,427 --> 00:19:39,803
{\an8}SHION SORYUIN
DIRECTOR OF KOUOU EDUCATION GROUP

229
00:19:39,887 --> 00:19:43,557
{\an8}It just means that it wasn't a big deal
for Chairman Katahara.

230
00:19:44,099 --> 00:19:46,727
{\an8}I'm sure he can cover it up
any way he wants.

231
00:19:46,810 --> 00:19:50,355
I'll never understand
how these big shots think.

232
00:19:50,439 --> 00:19:54,359
That sort of secretive nature is so scary.

233
00:19:54,443 --> 00:19:56,403
Right, President Ohya?

234
00:19:58,197 --> 00:19:59,448
{\an8}KEN OHYA
PRESIDENT OF GINOKUNIYA BOOKSHOP

235
00:19:59,531 --> 00:20:04,828
{\an8}I know that the Chairman didn't change,
but President Hayami has fallen.

236
00:20:05,370 --> 00:20:09,458
The Japanese economy will be in chaos.

237
00:20:15,088 --> 00:20:16,798
There you are.

238
00:20:19,509 --> 00:20:22,221
I haven't spoken to you in a while.

239
00:20:24,765 --> 00:20:28,143
Hey, how much do you know?

240
00:20:28,727 --> 00:20:30,479
What are you talking about?

241
00:20:30,562 --> 00:20:34,566
{\an8}Come on. You're still gonna play dumb
after all this?

242
00:20:36,652 --> 00:20:38,111
Three more.

243
00:20:39,154 --> 00:20:43,242
When I win,
you're gonna tell me everything.

244
00:20:43,951 --> 00:20:45,452
Ohma.

245
00:20:46,703 --> 00:20:49,039
<i>Something feels different.</i>

246
00:20:49,915 --> 00:20:52,584
<i>His aggressive aura has vanished.</i>

247
00:20:53,335 --> 00:20:54,378
<i>It's like...</i>

248
00:20:55,170 --> 00:20:56,922
<i>he's had a realization.</i>

249
00:20:57,464 --> 00:20:59,383
Hey, Ohma!

250
00:20:59,466 --> 00:21:02,010
You always go off on your own!

251
00:21:02,970 --> 00:21:08,392
Kazuo Yamashita.
I can go wherever I want to, right?

252
00:21:09,059 --> 00:21:13,522
You're not fully recovered yet!
Do you understand that?

253
00:21:13,605 --> 00:21:14,523
Yeah.

254
00:21:15,315 --> 00:21:16,900
Sorry for the trouble.

255
00:21:20,195 --> 00:21:25,284
Ohma.
I need you to listen to me just this once.

256
00:21:27,286 --> 00:21:28,996
Yamashita Corporation...

257
00:21:30,372 --> 00:21:34,334
will forfeit the tournament.

258
00:21:47,639 --> 00:21:48,932
Ohma!

259
00:21:53,020 --> 00:21:54,313
Ohma.

260
00:22:13,790 --> 00:22:17,836
I don't even feel pain anymore now.

261
00:22:20,505 --> 00:22:22,924
Three more to go.

262
00:22:25,761 --> 00:22:28,221
I just need to last...

263
00:22:29,681 --> 00:22:31,808
for three more matches.

264
00:24:05,610 --> 00:24:07,904
<i>The King of Stranglers versus Ashura!</i>

265
00:24:07,988 --> 00:24:10,282
<i>Both suffering full body wounds,</i>

266
00:24:10,365 --> 00:24:13,034
<i>but with minds as serene as still water.</i>

267
00:24:13,118 --> 00:24:16,413
<i>Overflowing with only the will to fight!</i>

268
00:24:16,496 --> 00:24:18,790
<i>Next episode: "Headstrong."</i>

269
