KENGAN LIFE-OR-DEATH
SAYAKA KATAHARA DAUGHTER OF METSUDO KATAHARA
Now, let's introduce the fighters for the tenth match.
GAME 10
This music...
Isn't it "The Eccentric Parade"?
Ah, the one they put on at Tochigi Destinyland?
This is a nostalgic tune, isn't it?
It brings back memories of the time we went to Destinyland together.
SEN HATSUMI FIGHTER OF NOGI GROUP
It doesn't. That's in ancient times.
SHION SORYUIN KOUOU EDUCATION GROUP
Ancient times? Well, I guess you're right.
You were just a young girl, still in high school.
You were in your twenties, too.
Do you want me to kill you?
We got into a fight and broke up right after that, didn't we?
Yeah, because you cheated on me.
Then we were on and off for quite a while.
-Hey, Shion. -No.
I will never go out with you again...
-What the hell is that? -What the hell is that?
Hey, Shion. Did Mockey always have that kind of physique?
Obviously not.
That's not a fighter, is it?
Oh, by the way, I was about to ask if I could borrow a cigarette.
What were you saying "no" to?
I didn't say such a thing, you idiot.
The mightiest warrior from the Land of Dreams!
He is the ultimate weapon of the power corporation
known as Tochigi Destinyland.
He makes his kengan match debut today.
Today, we are going to witness the Destiny magic.
Standing at 221 cm and weighing 111 kg,
he makes his kengan match debut today.
Representing Tochigi Destinyland,
also known as the Man from the Land of Dreams,
Masami Nezu!
HAJIME HANAFUSA KOKOMI YOSHIZAWA
He's got an interesting body. I would love to dissect him.
Doctor, he is wearing a stuffed animal suit on his head.
I'll end it.
I have to end it.
Farewell, the Land of Dreams.
Goodbye, Mockey.
It's unbelievable!
Mockey's head just cracked open
and a delinquent came out of it!
MASAMI NEZU, REP. FIGHTER TOCHIGI DESTINYLAND
I'm so sorry, Mockey!
What the hell?
OHMA TOKITA - KAZUO YAMASHITA - KAEDE AKIYAMA
I'm going to end this nightmare for you!
I see. He split his mask in two with an awfully fast kick.
HIDEKI NOGI CHAIRMAN OF NOGI GROUP
He's not just for show, huh?
KUNIHIRO YUMENO TOCHIGI DESTINYLAND
Masami Nezu was the third leader of Bakuonchitai,
the biggest motorcycle gang in Tochigi prefecture.
Capitalizing on his skills and abnormal body build,
he entered underground combat sports.
Nezu was easily recruited for the kengan matches.
That's because...
For real? Can I really be Mockey?
...he was a Tochigi Destinyland fanatic.
Nezu is a real idiot, but his strength is also real.
A strong idiot is such an easy tool.
That was a good kick.
It was sharp, heavy and quick.
What? Excuse me. I haven't introduced you yet.
Then do it now.
I don't want to keep Rino waiting.
REI MIKAZUCHI GOLD PLEASURE GROUP
Rei.
Be careful not to hurt yourself.
RINO KURAYOSHI
Um...
Now, let me introduce this fighter.
Standing at 179 cm and weighing 77 kg,
his kengan match record is one win and no losses.
His totals assets acquired is one billion 211 million 400 thousand yen.
Representing Gold Pleasure Group,
also known as the Lightning God, Rei Mikazuchi!
Both of you, take your starting positions.
The two fighters are facing off!
Which one of them will win?
Will it be the warrior of dreams or the warrior of love?
Rino... I'll dedicate this victory to you.
Mockey, I'm going to be with you until the end of your life.
THE RAKSHASA
The Raishin Style.
A mysterious art of assassination said to have a 1,200-year history.
This dreadful martial art holds contempt for authority,
but has been secretly, yet surely, passed down to the modern era.
After nine days without eating, drinking, or sleeping,
Rei had been standing here for two days.
His decreased respiratory functions from the fatigue resulted in hypoxia,
which caused visual and auditory hallucinations.
However,
while his body was in extremis,
his mind was sharper than ever.
He cast away his techniques, body,
and even his thoughts.
The boundary between himself and others no longer has meaning.
Slowly and gradually, it melts into the darkness.
And so, Mikazuchi vanishes into the darkness.
Good.
You did it, Rei.
BYO MIKAZUCHI MASTER OF RAISHIN STYLE
I have witnessed your lightning.
As of this moment, I hereby forsake the art.
The Raishin Style and the Mikazuchi name are yours now.
Do whatever you want with them.
Don't forget, Rei.
Being like the lightning is not enough.
You must "be" the lightning.
I can see it.
You're pretty strong, aren't you?
But it's too bad for you.
I'm feeling invincible now.
Fight!
Lightning Flash.
Lightning can never be evaded.
Ah! The match stops here!
We have a winner!
The winner is Rei Mikazuchi.
Foolish man.
Dreams always come to an end.
But love lasts forever.
That man...
His engine is on a whole other level.
SAW PAING YOROIZUKA FIGHTER VILLAGE OF DAWN
I'm going to fight that guy in the second round?
Yeah!
I'm getting fired up!
This was supposed to be my farewell.
Mr. Yumeno told me before the tournament...
that we were-- That Destinyland was...
KATSUMASA HAYAMI TOYO ELECTRIC POWER CO
...going to affiliate with Toyo.
Why? Destinyland is a wonderland.
We shouldn't team up with such a vicious company.
Well, whether we like it or not, our financial situation isn't at its best.
This is the reality.
I loved it for real.
I loved how Destinyland was free of any interference.
But the Land of Dreams I believed in was invaded by reality.
That's why I decided to end the dream.
I wanted my dear Mockey to be remembered as an ideal.
You can laugh at me.
No way I could've won in such a negative frame of mind.
Are you giving up?
That's not like you, Nezu.
Tochigi's thugs are the best in the world!
MIKI TAKEMARU, SECOND LEADER OF MERMAID
You're the shining star of all Tochigi's thugs.
And I know you're going to win next time.
I'll follow you for the rest of my life!
Miki...
will you start over with me?
Yes, sir!
Thank you, Rei.
Mm-hmm.
I'm so proud of you because you won without hurting your opponent.
Mm-hmm.
You kept your promise to me.
Mm-hmm.
You don't have to kill anyone anymore.
Mm-hmm.
My lord, you are up next.
Please change into your battle clothes.
Yes. The time has come.
REN NIKAIDO BYAKUYA SHIMBUN COMPANY
Let's go.
A man of mysteries has come from across the ocean.
A good-looking but unidentified fighter.
This mysterious fighter from Taiwan will dance in the arena.
Standing at 174 cm and weighing 73 kg,
he makes his kengan match debut today!
Representing the Byakuya Shimbun Company,
also known as the Watchman, Ren Nikaido!
Whoa! What obscenity am I looking at?
TOMOKO MATSUDA
What's your problem?
The next fighter is as mysterious as his opponent.
He appeared out of blue and entered the tournament.
Here comes the beautiful beast!
Standing at 180 cm and weighing 75 kg,
his kengan match record is one win and no losses.
Total assets he has acquired is 25 billion 72 million yen.
Representing Kouou Education Group,
also known as the Beautiful Beast, Setsuna Kiryu!
SETSUNA KIRYU, REP. FIGHTER KOUOU EDUCATION GROUP
Aw. The drawing made such an amazing couple.
How beautiful! How gorgeous!
The battle between the handsome men of the century begins now.
The ladies are going wild!
JERRY TYSON (ELIMINATED)
Every last one of them has a girlish look on his face.
That crest...
Take your stance!
Come on. I'll show you there's no comparison between us.
Take the fist of Heavenly Wolf.
Is something wrong, Kazuo Yamashita?
Oh, um... nothing.
I can't quite put it into words,
but isn't he a bit strange?
Setsuna Kiryu. I've done my research on you.
You use the Koei Style, one of the classical jujitsu.
It's nothing more than an island nation's kenpo.
You will be the hungry wolf's prey.
Fight!
Tai hao le!
I am faster than you.
Drown in despair, pretty boy!
Son of a bitch!
What the hell did you do?!
How did you dare to harm me
although I am an offering to him?
Since you scarred me,
you must pay for this...
with your life.
That was a blunder.
I outstrip him in speed. How did he get behind me?
Why? Why can't I keep up with him?
My left arm... still moves.
My shoulder... can't.
Damn it! I should be way better than this.
Are you even trying to fight?
Honestly, I don't care about you at all.
I'll spare you if you surrender.
You're overflowing with joy, you freak.
Come to think of it,
I know someone who's exactly like you.
Oh. Someone like me?
I bet that person is an ugly one, too.
He's dead.
It was such a cruel, miserable death.
Is that so? I'm jealous.
He was saved.
You lunatics understand each other?
I don't need to raise my left arm for this.
Secret technique, Qilong!
That's a unique form, but so what?
The Koei Style...
Blink.
Focus.
Sense the moment he enters within my range.
What the...
What the hell?
I was right about the crest.
That's the lost Japanese-style Chinese martial art: Tenroken.
Tenroken's secret technique Qilong has three steps.
Void: Compress air in the palms and release it all at once.
Those who get exposed to the blast within 15 meters of it
would become unable to move for a moment.
Illusion: Whisper a secret spell into their ear
where their entire attention is concentrated.
It is a so-called "instantaneous hypnosis."
And then, Light: Deliver a fajin strike to the hypnotized defenseless opponent.
Even in pre-arranged sparring,
it's said to be impossible to recreate this technique.
But he did it in the actual match.
Ren Nikaido is far beyond me as a martial artist.
Oh! Kiryu is moving.
But it looks like...
He looks groggy.
Oh, you pulled yourself to your feet while still under hypnosis.
I'll show respect for your spirit and play with you a little longer.
Where should I start destroying you?
I'm going to get you back for hurting my left--
Oh! Nikaido is coughing up blood!
What on earth is happening here?
Don't tell me
that he hit me at that moment.
That's impossible!
I'm sure my hypnosis worked on him.
Did he break out of the hypnosis in that split second?
No, that's impossible.
What's going on?
Kiryu's changed.
I owe you my gratitude.
I had a dream.
A very nostalgic one.
It's the sin that I've borne.
Did you know?
There are two kinds of people:
those who deserve to be happy and those who don't.
Ren Nikaido performed instant hypnosis when he pulled off Qilong.
I am one of the latter.
That awakened something unexpectedly.
Ren Nikaido,
will you become my sin?
Ashura awakens!
He's got a different air now.
Don't be deceived.
He should still be under my hypnosis.
I'll hit him with all I've got...
with all of my Jin.
I've seen that one already.
I don't like pain. Don't hurt me so much.
He... warded off my attack?
Come on. Show me your next technique.
You might be able to take me down.
Cao ni ma!
Ah! Is that...
Ohma's move?
Groveling on the ground suits the weak.
Hey. Are you not ashamed?
You can't fight back at all.
Don't underestimate me, Setsuna Kiryu.
-The match isn't over-- -Let me tell you one last thing.
The Koei Style has only two named techniques.
One is called Blink.
It's the technique that just put me behind you.
And the other one is...
Well, I'll let you experience it now.
Wait! I surrend--
The Koei Style, Rakshasa's Palm.
It's a technique that impacts your heart and twists it.
Oh! He's down!
Nikaido collapsed to the ground, coughing up blood.
We have a winner!
It's over!
In a match between beauties, victory went to the Beautiful Beast, Setsuna Kiryu!
I wonder why I wanted to show my true colors today.
Perhaps...
I got excited knowing you were watching me.
I can't wait, Ohma.
Me neither, Setsuna Kiryu!
PREVIEW
Master, murderer, kenpo.
He's strong. Extremely strong.
A man with remarkable ability, Gensai Kuroki.
He's frail. Too frail.
The Super Human, Lihito. Lihito is going to get tested.
