A chokehold!
It almost looks like--
It almost looks like a father carrying a child on his back...
"After the Dream"
Knock him out!
What is it I want---?
His victory?
Baki's victory?
Or--
Baki!
He broke free just like that!
He's good, all right...!
He's world's strongest-- for a reason!
Endorphins!
That's 2, no, 4 times stronger than me...!
I have one thing to say to you-
I'm enormously happy right now-
That little snot who did nothing but look up to me
is now attacking me with everything he's got-
His speed, weight, rhythm...
They've all reached the top level of modern fighting-
His timing's good, too-
He's making Baki's attacks look like a baby's---!
You all raised him!
I thank you-
I assume you all know that strong men have a smell-
A smell?
You can search the world over and still not come across a smell like this-
It's my favorite aroma!
Hey, Emi- It's feeding time-
I'm gonna eat today!
He's enjoying himself...!
He seems so happy...!
I figured he'd be a simple snack---
Smile...!
To think he'd be this delectable---
Baki---
Tears...?
Make your father happy!
I'll make someone happy!
You, that is!
Time to eat!
He got pounded!
Where am I? It feels so nice...
Huh? I've been here before...
Where was it...?
It was soft, and warm, and gentle...
He got pounded!
Not done yet!
Nice reaction, Baki-
That attack was completely imperceptible!
Much like the ideal iai form---!
Faster than a jab...!
Looked like you were dreaming for -2 seconds there-
A fight between the very best is a struggle for those decimal points-
In other words, after you smashed into the ground,
I killed you twice-
That stance---!
That's--
That's my old man's serious stance...!
--What the---? --He shut his eyes!
Is he planning to use the technique he used on me?!
Gimme your best shot!
Pathetic---
No!
He countered that spin kick...!
That's it-
--It's all over--- --Horrific---!
Things look bleak---
Are you trying to kill him?!
If this keeps up, he'll be-- Madam!
That's Hanma Yujiro!
Once he gets started, he won't let up, not even for his own son---
Only the winner's allowed stop a fight-
Surely, you realize that too---
THAT'S Yujiro---!
He gets so immersed---!
Madam---!
I win---
But if I beat him, will you finally love me?
--Love me---! --Idiot!
Just a tiny bit of your love for him--- Please---!
I'm so stupid---!
Yujiro!
Now you fight me!
Yujiro!
Now you fight me!
--Emi---! --You're crazy---!
Madam---!
Emi!
She'll be killed--
She intends to die!
To think you'd give up womanhood for motherhood---
Wow, that's nothing special at all---
What a great woman---
It's only natural- A 13-year old boy fighting the Ogre---
Anyone could've guessed this would happen!
Why wasn't he stopped?!
Hanma-san- I can hardly imagine how you are feeling right now-
But things have gone too far now to simply ignore-
You can lessen your punishment by turning yourself in, even for murder-
I will accompany you to the authorities-
You finally got to see Hanma Yujiro!
If you're sorry excuses for fighters, too---
---then have some fun with me!
Good night---
Sleep tight---
My sweet little boy---
Off to sleep you go---
Off to sleep--- you go---
Off to--- sleep---
Look, Mom! Everyone's staring!
Is it that rare to see a kid carrying his mom?
They're just jealous that we're so close!
But we're family! Of course we're close!
You sillyhead!
Our closeness is a special one-
That's for sure!
But I've just started. I still have so far to--
Show off too much, and people will hate you...
I don't mind if people hate me...
We're family, after all!
What are you doing there?
You're all banged up- Were you in a fight?
Officer-
Please let me continue just a little more---
Just a little more---!
Continue what---?
Hey---!
--Detective Kido! --Let him be-
--Huh? But-- --Just do it-
--Kido-san- --What?
Where do you suppose he'll go now?
Ain't it obvious?
Baki---
It's me-
Master Baki! Where are you---?!
Two years-
I'll return to Japan in two years- I'm--
I'm going to get strong enough to beat him bare-handed!
Please take care of yourself---
Yeah- You too-
"Next Episode"
At some point in the boy's 13 years,
the existence he kept chasing became a source of anger and resentment.
What did he lose- and gain- when he took fate into his own hands?
The many fists that passed by are now bonds that bring strength.
