00:00:15,223 --> 00:00:18,143
KENGAN LIFE-OR-DEATH TOURNAMENT

2
00:00:22,188 --> 00:00:24,649
All right! Done with the checkup.

3
00:00:24,733 --> 00:00:27,652
You're not in top condition,

4
00:00:27,736 --> 00:00:33,533
but it looks like the Kure Family's
treatment is working.

5
00:00:33,616 --> 00:00:37,078
I see. Thanks, Hanafusa.

6
00:00:37,620 --> 00:00:41,541
Well then, Ohma. We've still got
some time left before the match.

7
00:00:41,624 --> 00:00:45,045
Why don't you go rest
in the dressing room for a bit?

8
00:00:45,128 --> 00:00:47,422
I'm not the resting type.

9
00:00:48,465 --> 00:00:49,340
Huh?

10
00:00:50,592 --> 00:00:53,720
I'm going to go walk around
for a bit to warm up.

11
00:00:54,721 --> 00:00:56,598
O-Ohma…

12
00:00:57,390 --> 00:01:00,351
That's probably better in his case.

13
00:01:01,644 --> 00:01:05,899
Yamashita, I've warned you
several times already.

14
00:01:05,982 --> 00:01:06,816
Right…

15
00:01:07,442 --> 00:01:09,903
Are you sure about this?

16
00:01:10,904 --> 00:01:11,738
Yes.

17
00:01:13,114 --> 00:01:16,242
Ohma's an amazing person.

18
00:01:17,243 --> 00:01:21,456
I'm sure he knows
what's happening to him.

19
00:01:22,499 --> 00:01:25,460
I might never understand him,

20
00:01:26,127 --> 00:01:30,840
but I've decided to see things through
to the very end.

21
00:01:32,217 --> 00:01:36,137
It's the least I can do,
considering all he's done for me.

22
00:01:37,305 --> 00:01:38,932
Yamashita.

23
00:01:41,226 --> 00:01:43,228
Chairman Nogi!

24
00:03:14,986 --> 00:03:19,908
WAKATSUKI

25
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:25,121
TAKESHI WAKATSUKI
FURUMI PHARMA REP. FIGHTER

26
00:03:28,708 --> 00:03:29,584
Hey.

27
00:03:30,585 --> 00:03:31,461
Hey.

28
00:03:33,630 --> 00:03:38,551
Now that I think about it,
we've never really spoken before.

29
00:03:39,135 --> 00:03:40,178
Yeah.

30
00:03:40,678 --> 00:03:42,555
Thanks, Takeshi Wakatsuki.

31
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,233
You're covered in wounds.

32
00:03:53,316 --> 00:03:55,360
I could say the same about you.

33
00:03:55,944 --> 00:03:59,322
One of us could die in the next match.

34
00:04:00,323 --> 00:04:04,160
Well, it's a fight. It happens sometimes.

35
00:04:05,411 --> 00:04:06,913
This match will be fixed.

36
00:04:06,996 --> 00:04:07,914
Huh?

37
00:04:07,997 --> 00:04:12,126
Our bosses are both on Nogi's side.

38
00:04:13,127 --> 00:04:17,590
The smart thing to do would be
to have one of us let the other win.

39
00:04:19,133 --> 00:04:23,179
It's what my boss decided.
I'm not going to go against his decision.

40
00:04:28,142 --> 00:04:31,562
I only had one condition for him.

41
00:04:32,730 --> 00:04:36,234
The one who gets to advance
to the finals will be me.

42
00:04:38,319 --> 00:04:42,031
What's wrong, Chairman Nogi?

43
00:04:42,865 --> 00:04:44,117
Yamashita.

44
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,159
Yes?

45
00:04:45,243 --> 00:04:48,538
Well done making it to the semifinals.

46
00:04:50,373 --> 00:04:53,459
Your role is over now.

47
00:04:54,043 --> 00:04:55,211
Huh?

48
00:04:57,547 --> 00:05:01,843
You want me to remove Ohma as my fighter?!

49
00:05:02,427 --> 00:05:03,678
That's right.

50
00:05:03,761 --> 00:05:07,724
Furumi Pharma is in the same faction
as the Nogi Group.

51
00:05:07,807 --> 00:05:09,517
That means they're an ally.

52
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,605
It's confirmed that they
will nominate me as chairman.

53
00:05:16,274 --> 00:05:18,192
Wh-What about Akiyama?

54
00:05:18,693 --> 00:05:21,321
Of course, I've already talked to her.

55
00:05:21,904 --> 00:05:24,073
After the incident last night.

56
00:05:26,951 --> 00:05:30,413
The condition given by Furumi Pharma

57
00:05:30,496 --> 00:05:33,916
was that if two factions
of the Nogi Group were ever to face off,

58
00:05:34,417 --> 00:05:39,297
we'd let the company that's sponsoring
Takeshi Wakatsuki win.

59
00:05:39,797 --> 00:05:43,634
In other words,
as long as Furumi Pharma wins,

60
00:05:43,718 --> 00:05:47,388
then I'll have to accept a fixed match.

61
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:50,850
It was a very good trade-off.

62
00:05:55,897 --> 00:05:57,482
I respectfully decline.

63
00:05:57,565 --> 00:05:58,608
What?!

64
00:05:59,108 --> 00:06:03,446
Chairman… you can't just do that.

65
00:06:05,114 --> 00:06:08,534
This fight doesn't belong to you alone.

66
00:06:10,370 --> 00:06:17,085
A man is fighting
and risking his life to overcome his past.

67
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:22,965
Yamashita Corporation's fighter
is Ohma Tokita!

68
00:06:23,049 --> 00:06:25,718
That's my final decision!

69
00:06:27,678 --> 00:06:29,013
Are you crazy?!

70
00:06:30,181 --> 00:06:33,893
There's no reason for you
to be stubborn right now.

71
00:06:33,976 --> 00:06:35,978
Think it over!

72
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:38,773
Make Ohma leave the island immediately.

73
00:06:38,856 --> 00:06:43,986
I promise he'll be treated
at a top-class medical institution.

74
00:06:44,779 --> 00:06:49,200
I'll even forgive
your 5.1 billion-yen debt!

75
00:06:49,283 --> 00:06:55,039
And I'm ready to have you come join us
as a Nogi Group board member!

76
00:06:55,832 --> 00:06:57,542
I'm sorry, Chairman.

77
00:06:58,042 --> 00:07:00,920
I've already made my decision.

78
00:07:02,338 --> 00:07:04,132
Don't worry.

79
00:07:05,049 --> 00:07:07,969
Ohma's going to win, no matter what!

80
00:07:09,637 --> 00:07:14,016
I'm sure your ambitions
are going to come true.

81
00:07:16,018 --> 00:07:18,813
Those ambitions don't belong only to me.

82
00:07:18,896 --> 00:07:19,730
Huh?

83
00:07:19,814 --> 00:07:26,612
I never wanted to be chairman
of the Kengan Association until that day.

84
00:07:27,196 --> 00:07:32,243
However, destiny took hold
and refused to set me free.

85
00:07:33,035 --> 00:07:34,704
Since that fateful day,

86
00:07:34,787 --> 00:07:39,125
I've been determined to become
the Kengan Association chairman.

87
00:07:39,709 --> 00:07:41,085
Yamashita.

88
00:07:41,586 --> 00:07:45,131
It was the day I found out you exist.

89
00:07:45,882 --> 00:07:46,716
Huh?

90
00:07:48,342 --> 00:07:49,635
Me too,

91
00:07:51,095 --> 00:07:52,597
Takeshi Wakatsuki.

92
00:07:53,181 --> 00:07:55,641
I don't intend on giving you this match.

93
00:07:56,767 --> 00:07:58,853
I guess we're at an impasse.

94
00:07:59,437 --> 00:08:02,565
Let's just settle this our own way.

95
00:08:03,065 --> 00:08:05,902
Yeah. Looks like we've got no choice.

96
00:08:29,008 --> 00:08:31,010
KENGAN LIFE-OR-DEATH TOURNAMENT

97
00:08:38,309 --> 00:08:42,230
The moment you've all been waiting for!

98
00:08:42,313 --> 00:08:46,817
It's the final day
of the Kengan Life-or-Death Tournament!

99
00:08:46,901 --> 00:08:50,655
Let the semifinals begin!

100
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:01,707
Fighters, enter the arena!

101
00:09:07,797 --> 00:09:13,427
The Asura! It's time for you
to stand on the battlefield once again!

102
00:09:13,511 --> 00:09:18,266
The Asura! Are you immortal?!

103
00:09:18,849 --> 00:09:21,769
Come! Show us again today!

104
00:09:21,852 --> 00:09:26,774
We still haven't seen
the full power of the Niko Style!

105
00:09:26,857 --> 00:09:30,903
Standing at 182 cm tall
and weighing 85 kg,

106
00:09:30,987 --> 00:09:34,615
his Kengan match record
is five wins and zero losses.

107
00:09:34,699 --> 00:09:36,742
His total acquired assets

108
00:09:36,826 --> 00:09:40,871
are 154,230,000,000 yen!

109
00:09:40,955 --> 00:09:43,916
Representing Yamashita Corporation,

110
00:09:44,417 --> 00:09:47,295
it's "The Asura,"

111
00:09:47,378 --> 00:09:51,716
Ohma Tokita!

112
00:09:59,140 --> 00:10:00,224
-Tokita!
-Tokita!

113
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:02,643
Whoa! Tokita!

114
00:10:03,227 --> 00:10:05,021
He really showed up!

115
00:10:05,104 --> 00:10:09,108
Yeah! That's the spirit!

116
00:10:09,191 --> 00:10:11,819
I can feel the heat!

117
00:10:12,403 --> 00:10:15,114
Tokita! Don't you dare lose!

118
00:10:15,197 --> 00:10:18,868
You've got shaggy hair like him.
Are you a Tokita fan too?

119
00:10:18,951 --> 00:10:19,785
Shaggy?

120
00:10:19,869 --> 00:10:24,415
Yamashita Corporation didn't withdraw
or switch out fighters.

121
00:10:24,498 --> 00:10:27,335
It means their spirit
hasn't been broken yet!

122
00:10:27,418 --> 00:10:29,670
They've got guts!

123
00:10:30,171 --> 00:10:32,590
Yeah!

124
00:10:32,673 --> 00:10:36,927
What an idiot!
His body's about to fall apart.

125
00:10:40,723 --> 00:10:42,058
VERSUS

126
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:47,146
He's been blessed with a strong body,
well-honed techniques,

127
00:10:47,229 --> 00:10:52,360
and an instinct for battle
that he just can't suppress!

128
00:10:52,443 --> 00:10:56,697
Why did the heavens give him
everything needed for battle?!

129
00:10:56,781 --> 00:11:01,661
It's because the heavens wanted to see
the best possible fight!

130
00:11:02,244 --> 00:11:06,123
Standing at 193 cm tall
and weighing 193 kg,

131
00:11:06,207 --> 00:11:10,503
his Kengan match record
is 309 wins and two losses.

132
00:11:10,586 --> 00:11:12,588
His total acquired assets

133
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:18,803
are 3,277,395,000,000 yen!

134
00:11:18,886 --> 00:11:21,430
Representing Furumi Pharma,

135
00:11:22,223 --> 00:11:24,517
it's the Wild Tiger,

136
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:30,272
Takeshi Wakatsuki!

137
00:11:35,444 --> 00:11:40,074
-Wakatsuki!
-Wakatsuki!

138
00:11:40,658 --> 00:11:43,786
Welcome to the first match
of the semifinals!

139
00:11:43,869 --> 00:11:46,997
Ohma Tokita from Yamashita Corporation

140
00:11:47,081 --> 00:11:52,044
versus Takeshi Wakatsuki
from Furumi Pharma!

141
00:11:52,128 --> 00:11:57,508
These two giants have both made it
through three rounds of battle!

142
00:11:57,591 --> 00:12:03,222
How much have they recovered
after one day of rest?

143
00:12:03,305 --> 00:12:07,977
Normally, that's not enough time
to be of much help!

144
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:10,104
JERRY TYSON
22ND CENTURY FAX, REP. FIGHTER

145
00:12:10,187 --> 00:12:12,398
However!

146
00:12:12,481 --> 00:12:17,278
They both look like they're completely
unaffected by the fatigue and the damage!

147
00:12:18,237 --> 00:12:21,282
Will the Wild Tiger move on to the finals?

148
00:12:22,533 --> 00:12:24,118
Or will it be The Asura?

149
00:12:25,119 --> 00:12:28,956
The gong's about to ring!

150
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:30,332
Win!

151
00:12:30,416 --> 00:12:31,500
Wakatsuki!

152
00:12:31,584 --> 00:12:34,587
-The Fang's no match for you!
-I know you can win!

153
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:39,091
I'm sure President Yamashita
has heard already.

154
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:40,634
Even so,

155
00:12:41,635 --> 00:12:44,346
you're sure about this, Wakatsuki?

156
00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:48,058
You're amazing.

157
00:12:48,601 --> 00:12:54,565
Almost everyone here
thinks you're going to win.

158
00:12:56,692 --> 00:12:59,904
This pressure feels different.

159
00:13:00,404 --> 00:13:02,531
It's not like when I fought Raian Kure.

160
00:13:03,365 --> 00:13:05,910
Or like when I fought Setsuna Kiryu.

161
00:13:07,036 --> 00:13:09,163
It feels most similar

162
00:13:10,289 --> 00:13:11,415
to Niko.

163
00:13:12,625 --> 00:13:18,506
Pure pressure from a man
with pure, incredible strength.

164
00:13:19,673 --> 00:13:23,052
This type of fighter
is the most troublesome of all.

165
00:13:29,725 --> 00:13:32,520
All right! Are you ready?!

166
00:13:34,104 --> 00:13:36,232
Are you ready?!

167
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:38,150
Take your positions!

168
00:13:38,734 --> 00:13:40,277
I'm sure of it.

169
00:13:41,070 --> 00:13:43,864
There's something wrong
with Takeshi Wakatsuki's eye.

170
00:13:44,448 --> 00:13:48,702
He changed his stance to cover for
whatever the problem is.

171
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:55,626
It's to get a better field of vision
by putting his good left eye in back.

172
00:13:56,877 --> 00:13:59,380
First, I'm going to attack him
with a hit-and-run move.

173
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,883
After that, I'll close his left eye
with my last attack.

174
00:14:02,967 --> 00:14:04,426
Then it's over for him.

175
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:06,136
Begin!

176
00:14:07,638 --> 00:14:09,473
He scored the first hit!

177
00:14:09,557 --> 00:14:11,475
He's fast! And with a body like that?

178
00:14:12,059 --> 00:14:13,894
It's a traditional karate jab!

179
00:14:13,978 --> 00:14:16,355
He can use moves
other than full contact karate?!

180
00:14:16,438 --> 00:14:19,233
Go! Wakatsuki!

181
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:51,599
He's so close!

182
00:14:59,231 --> 00:15:04,194
It's an onslaught of body blows!

183
00:15:04,695 --> 00:15:07,031
He switched to using
full contact karate moves!

184
00:15:07,114 --> 00:15:11,410
It's too much!
Indestructible can't block them all!

185
00:15:11,493 --> 00:15:14,747
Attacking the face is forbidden
in full contact karate.

186
00:15:14,830 --> 00:15:18,292
That means he's well-prepared
to fight like this.

187
00:15:18,375 --> 00:15:22,171
Yes. In this style,
the attacker keeps pushing forward,

188
00:15:22,254 --> 00:15:25,341
which is why it's sometimes
called "sumo karate."

189
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:30,512
That makes it a perfect fit
with Wakatsuki's superhuman strength.

190
00:15:31,847 --> 00:15:34,224
So much power!

191
00:15:34,308 --> 00:15:36,435
Even more than Raian Kure!

192
00:15:36,518 --> 00:15:39,313
If my power level
with Indestructible was a ten,

193
00:15:39,396 --> 00:15:42,441
then his would be 50!

194
00:15:43,651 --> 00:15:44,818
No, Tokita!

195
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:46,153
Don't distance yourself!

196
00:15:51,033 --> 00:15:53,869
He followed up with a lunging jab!

197
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,915
He's not going after him?
But it's the perfect chance!

198
00:15:57,998 --> 00:16:02,252
Whoa! Jerry, what's he doing?

199
00:16:04,129 --> 00:16:06,548
He doesn't want to give in
to a ground fight.

200
00:16:06,632 --> 00:16:10,552
I can sense his desire to win
the battle with striking moves!

201
00:16:10,636 --> 00:16:12,012
I get it!

202
00:16:12,096 --> 00:16:17,851
Tokita demonstrated a high skill level
of ground fighting in the third round.

203
00:16:17,935 --> 00:16:23,190
It looks like Wakatsuki
wants to keep it a standing fight!

204
00:16:23,273 --> 00:16:28,070
So he doesn't want to encounter
the same ground move that beat Cosmo.

205
00:16:28,153 --> 00:16:31,699
Even with all those injuries,
he's still thinking straight.

206
00:16:31,782 --> 00:16:36,370
Impressive! He hasn't made it through
500 Kengan matches for nothing.

207
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,335
Your jabs reach even from that distance?

208
00:16:44,294 --> 00:16:47,631
How do you move so fast
with nearly 200 kg on you?

209
00:16:48,590 --> 00:16:51,927
I don't care if you keep
avoiding a ground fight.

210
00:16:52,011 --> 00:16:55,097
A little bit of rest is all I need.

211
00:16:57,391 --> 00:16:59,601
I'm still injured,
even with Indestructible?!

212
00:17:00,686 --> 00:17:03,105
He's going to destroy me

213
00:17:03,188 --> 00:17:06,734
before I can destroy his eye.

214
00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:10,612
Wakatsuki.

215
00:17:11,196 --> 00:17:15,242
If you get through this fight,
you can fight the Fang.

216
00:17:30,591 --> 00:17:33,427
He's up to something…

217
00:17:35,429 --> 00:17:38,057
this late in the game…

218
00:17:47,983 --> 00:17:50,611
Huh? That stance…

219
00:17:51,111 --> 00:17:52,071
Demon Slaughterer?

220
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,365
Such futile resistance…

221
00:17:55,449 --> 00:17:56,283
Huh?

222
00:17:56,366 --> 00:18:02,998
Even if Ohma wins, he won't be able to
fight in the finals with those injuries.

223
00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:05,209
Yamashita.

224
00:18:05,793 --> 00:18:08,587
At this rate, Ohma is going to die.

225
00:18:09,338 --> 00:18:10,756
Withdraw from the tournament.

226
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:16,428
Stop acting so entitled!

227
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:20,349
You're the one who initiated
this tournament!

228
00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:23,310
I made up my mind long ago.

229
00:18:23,811 --> 00:18:29,399
I'll sacrifice anything
in order to win this tournament.

230
00:18:30,150 --> 00:18:33,028
But you shouldn't.

231
00:18:33,612 --> 00:18:34,738
Huh?

232
00:18:35,322 --> 00:18:41,286
You must not make
the same mistake the Nogi family made.

233
00:18:44,373 --> 00:18:46,750
What do you mean, Chairman?

234
00:18:47,626 --> 00:18:53,132
What do I have to do
with the Kengan matches?

235
00:18:54,299 --> 00:18:56,385
It seems the time has come

236
00:18:56,885 --> 00:18:59,471
for me to tell you everything.

237
00:19:00,389 --> 00:19:03,183
It all began 300 years ago,

238
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:07,062
at the beginning
of the Kengan Association.

239
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,315
Th-The Edo Period?

240
00:19:10,899 --> 00:19:12,651
During the Edo Period,

241
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:17,531
there was one fighter
who was known as the strongest.

242
00:19:18,824 --> 00:19:21,660
His weapon was his eyes.

243
00:19:22,161 --> 00:19:24,079
EYES

244
00:19:25,747 --> 00:19:28,792
He had the ability
to see through any attack.

245
00:19:29,376 --> 00:19:35,090
In modern terms, he had
a superhuman level of dynamic vision.

246
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:43,473
His employer was Eikichi Nogiya,
one of my ancestors.

247
00:19:44,308 --> 00:19:49,938
In exchange for supporting
his family of fallen samurai,

248
00:19:50,022 --> 00:19:52,441
Eikichi hired him as a fighter.

249
00:19:52,524 --> 00:19:53,984
EIKICHI NOGIYA

250
00:19:54,568 --> 00:19:56,528
The man's name was

251
00:19:57,029 --> 00:20:00,824
"Kengan" Ichinoshin Yamashita.

252
00:20:01,825 --> 00:20:04,953
That man was one of your ancestors.

253
00:20:05,829 --> 00:20:10,500
One of my ancestors was a fighter?!

254
00:20:11,084 --> 00:20:13,795
Your sight isn't perfect,

255
00:20:13,879 --> 00:20:16,882
but you've inherited
some of Ichinoshin's powers.

256
00:20:19,176 --> 00:20:21,386
You know what I'm talking about.

257
00:20:21,887 --> 00:20:22,721
Huh?

258
00:20:24,306 --> 00:20:25,140
Does he mean

259
00:20:26,725 --> 00:20:29,269
what happened at the lottery?

260
00:20:30,812 --> 00:20:33,232
Huh? No way…

261
00:20:33,941 --> 00:20:37,361
Once his family was saved,

262
00:20:37,444 --> 00:20:42,950
Ichinoshin pledged his undying loyalty
to Eikichi Nogiya, my ancestor.

263
00:20:43,450 --> 00:20:49,081
Eikichi also placed
his absolute trust in Ichinoshin.

264
00:20:51,792 --> 00:20:54,211
Eventually, between the two of them,

265
00:20:54,294 --> 00:20:58,548
a friendship blossomed greater
than that of employer and employee.

266
00:21:00,342 --> 00:21:01,260
However…

267
00:21:04,346 --> 00:21:06,765
EDO PERIOD
YAMASHITA RESIDENCE

268
00:21:20,570 --> 00:21:22,781
Good news, Ichinoshin!

269
00:21:23,615 --> 00:21:24,783
Eikichi.

270
00:21:24,866 --> 00:21:27,661
The Kengan Association finally gave in!

271
00:21:27,744 --> 00:21:32,040
They're holding a tournament to decide
who's going to be the new chairman!

272
00:21:32,124 --> 00:21:35,419
This is our chance
to make our dreams come true!

273
00:21:35,502 --> 00:21:38,130
The Kengan Association
is going to be reborn!

274
00:21:42,634 --> 00:21:44,344
Ichinoshin…

275
00:21:44,845 --> 00:21:48,557
What's that injury?

276
00:21:50,642 --> 00:21:54,021
Is it from the match last month?

277
00:21:55,647 --> 00:21:58,066
Don't worry, Eikichi.

278
00:22:01,361 --> 00:22:05,407
Let's build a new
Kengan Association… together!

279
00:22:12,914 --> 00:22:16,001
That was the beginning of the tragedy.

280
00:24:02,399 --> 00:24:04,901

281
00:24:04,985 --> 00:24:06,903
Who would have imagined?!

282
00:24:06,987 --> 00:24:11,283
Kazuo Yamashita's formidable bloodline
is finally revealed!

283
00:24:11,366 --> 00:24:15,287
The hopes and dreams of men
from the past and the present cross paths!

284
00:24:15,370 --> 00:24:17,289
May these thoughts reach you!
