I dreamed of you
Hearing the memories
It was of my youth
That you sang
Midnight blues
Hey hey hey blues
Just like junkie blues
Your shout will tremble the human heart
He's been hurt, crazy lazy blues
Midnight blues
Let me hear it!
Hey hey hey blues
Still rollin' the blues
Your heat is unforgettable
I heard that you are telling people that you are disappointed about me
but I was the one who is disappointed about you.
You are just a rude, pale animal.
Hey, what did you just say, José?
Wait, José!
I haven't finished talking!
Episode 29: Yabuki's... New Defence
Go.
Joe! Hey, Joe! Hold on!
That really affected me.
Joe, you still asleep?
Are you feeling dizzy?
No, it's getting better.
The Champion K.O'd Yabuki!
The Eastern Champion: Is Rude
Furious, José Mendoza Taught him a Lesson.
Okay, Pinan.
- We'll do some sparring now. - Yeah.
Okay, okay. That's good.
Pinan Sarawaku, 25 years old,
the 3rd ranking Eastern champion.
An opponent which Yabuki must fight in order to retain his title.
But a lower-ranked boxer
can create unforeseen difficulties.
And this Pinan Sarawaku
is very big for a bantamweight.
They say he has excellent footwork.
Not only is he good at dodging
but his long arms permit him
to land a direct hit or a hook from a distance.
Will you give Yabuki all this information?
It won't do any good. He has something else on his mind
- like you do. - Ah...
Here they come.
Hello, Miss Yoko!
Hello, Mrs. Mendoza.
Well! Seems like I'm the only one worried about Yabuki losing his title.
Okay, Pinan. Come on, let's go!
Yeah.
Whatever happens,
if I screw up my next match,
everything will fall apart.
Yes, that's right!
I know that very well. Shit!
Hurry, Joe! Faster!
When you run on the beach your feet sink into the sand,
so it strengthens your hips and legs.
But for me, since I don't have a bike,
it's very, very hard...
I can't do it anymore!
That feels good!
José...
Yabuki...
Yoko!
It's been a long time... You seem fit.
Great!
How long have you been here?
Since two weeks ago.
I have business with Mr. José.
Business with Mr. José?
Yes.
How do you have "business with Mr. José"?
I can't say.
I see... You're meddling in men's affairs
and organizing boxing matches?
Since you're so harsh!
I will do what's necessary.
Once you have defended your title,
I'll take you trolling or on a visit to the islands.
There are some beautiful places in Hawaii.
Stop. Don't force yourself.
I know that you're very busy.
Look, they're calling you.
Yes, I'm coming, Mrs. Mendoza!
Yabuki, join us.
You don't know his family. I'll introduce you.
It's interesting to see the champion relaxed.
We'll see his true personality.
Stop. I know his personality...
Too well, even.
- Yoko, who is he? - He's a friend of mine.
I wonder if he's a champion of the Asia-Pacific?
How did you know?
I saw his picture on the newspaper this morning.
Joe Yabuki.
In the blue corner,
the third ranking Asia-Pacific bantamweight
at 117 lbs, from the Philippines...
Pinan Sarawaku!
In the red corner, the Asia-Pacific bantamweight champion,
118 lbs, from Japan...
Joe Yabuki!
Dear boxing fans of Japan, good afternoon.
We are ringside on the beach in Honolulu.
Yabuki is fighting for the first time abroad.
He will be defending his Eastern title!
What popularity!
From the beginning, the seats were taken by storm.
There are many Japanese in Hawaii today, it's amazing!
His altercation with José Mendoza made the headlines
and unleashed passion.
I see.
Ladies and gentlemen...
Tonight we have a special guest
who will fight in Honolulu in one week,
a great champion,
a champion of champions...
We have a special guest today,
the world bantamweight champion...
José Mendoza!
The indispensable José Mendoza has just been presented!
He will now encourage the two boxers.
Thank you very much, champion.
Joe!
Why won't you shake his hand?
Joe!
Joe, what's wrong? The world champion is offering you his hand!
Two rounds...
That will be enough rounds for me to finish this match.
I'll end the match in only two rounds, in front of you!
The ring site is located on the beach.
If you're exposed to the wind, you risk catching cold.
Listen, keep this in mind:
you must stay a champion in top shape until our match.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Two rounds!
I will K.O. the challenger in two rounds!
Alright, champion?
I don't need to shake your hand or your solemn encouragements.
I wish you good luck, you do your best.
You're a yellow sheep...
Go home, Yabuki!
You're a dirty Japanese!
You're a crazy Japanese!
Go home, Yabuki!
What an idiot! Predicting the K.O.?!
This isn't a friendly title match anymore, imagine that!
And your opponent has an exceptional hook.
You won't be able to punch him before the second round.
Shhh! Quit yapping.
I can't hear the waves.
What?
H-Hey!
Watch closely, José.
I promise to send this lanky guy to the mat in two rounds.
Bastard!
Come here!
Joe, you have an opening!
Shit!
Damn! You're too far away!
Bastard!
Stop!
Yabuki, what's wrong? Why haven't you hit him?
You've gotta K.O. him in the next round!
Hey! Go slowly!
Okay, Pinan. Very good, very good.
Did Yabuki lose his head?
We know that Pinan has a very good hook.
Yabuki's punching too short!
He's rushing because of the challenge he created.
If he continues like that, he's going to lose.
Pinan punches him with precision.
Well, we're at that fateful second round.
I think you threw this challenge to entertain the fans.
Forget it and better your attacks.
You don't understand, Gramps.
It wasn't for the fans,
it was for José.
Hup!
I'll get you!
Yabuki unleashes! He finally has Pinan worried.
Not really.
His punches are being blocked and are ineffective.
Yabuki's down! What a magnificent cross-counter!
Joe!
3... 4...
5...
6...
7...
This is your chance! Pinan, come on! Beat him up!
Come on! This isn't the time to run away if you love boxing.
Stop!
Hey! What happened to the second round knockout?
Liar! You're a swindler!
Gramps...
Sorry. I couldn't do it.
Don't worry. Things happen.
Hey!
I have a favour to ask you.
Show me three fingers.
Three fingers? Three?
Thanks.
Hey, everyone! Look!
I missed the second round, but I'll do it on the third!
I'll K.O. him in the next round!
You idiot! That's enough!
You came all the way to Hawaii to make a fool of yourself!
Wait until the end of the round before you say that.
Come on, it's starting.
This is so crazy!
Yabuki succeeded!
Victory by K.O. within 29 seconds of the 3rd round!
He'll keep his Eastern title!
Let's go.
Bravo, Yabuki. A word to the fans of Hawaii and Japan.
- A word? - Yes.
Do you mind?
Joe!
José! Where is José?
José Mendoza, wait!
Listen to me, José!
I trained a bit, today.
You're next!
Next you, as they say!
Tomorrow is tomorrow, the sun will rise
Your yesterdays can't be returned to again
The river's path is unknown
There will be calms and waterfalls
But until you see the ocean
The current will keep on going
