Let's go to the field of sea with the tailwind
Raise the sails high up in the sky
We're adventurers who have the same hearts
Much faster and at full speed
I will manage to catch any waves
Go over the clouds and go under the rainbow, our world will be there
Yahoo! Let's give a cheer and go!
To far and away
Yahoo! We will just stay on this road that leads to what's beyond this sea
Hey, you two there.
You have no business with me, so stop following me!
You don't have to be so upset. We take the same route home as you do. That's all.
That's right.
Tsk.
Ah! That's Tanimoto-sama!
Tanimoto-sama! Good-bye!
Yeah, good-bye!
Doesn't being two-faced all the time tire you out?
Soon you won't be able to figure out which one is the real you.
That's none of your business.
Worry about yourself before you worry about others.
Don't get carried away just because you defeated me, Sieg and the others.
I'm not getting carried away at all.
Ragnarok's top three Greatest Fists are on a different level from the other Greatest Fists.
Those "Three of Cards" are indeed Ragnarok's predecessors and its original members.
People attracted by their strength gathered and Ragnarok was formed.
They've been ruling such a big group by force and fear with their minds, skills and bodies...
They're outstanding in all those.
The reason I joined Ragnarok in the first place
was because I wanted to learn from their ability to bring a group together.
They're all very sharp, too.
But... if you fight one on one with them, you can defeat them, right? Right?
No, I probably can't.
Especially the First Greatest Fist... I can't defeat him as I am now.
Rumor says that he received lessons from the Sage Fist directly.
The one who saved you... The Sage Fist is the First Greatest Fist's master...
You do have... your own expert masters, too, right? Though they're weird...
Huh?
Well... yeah... they're experts in weirdness as well.
Then train like there's no tomorrow.
Those "Three of Cards" guys are certainly getting stronger as we speak.
Yes.
Geez... You don't understand how good an environment you're in.
He has a sharp tongue, but he's a nice person, isn't he?
He gave you advice.
Yeah.
But to think that even Tanimoto-san can't defeat those people...
Three of cards, huh?
"Ryozanpaku"
I can't find it! I can't find my badge anywhere!
"Ryozanpaku" I'm pretty sure I put it on the collar of this shirt!
Master Sakaki! Do you remember seeing it somewhere?
Oh, that yin and yang thing? No, I didn't see it.
I see. This is strange.
"Erotica"
Kenichi-san!
I'm ready to go shopping no... Ah!
I found... it.
Ahhh! That's my precious badge! What are you doing with it, Tochumaru-kun?!
Hey. Give it back to Keni... chi.
Oh? He won't let go.
When he likes something, he's always like this.
What?!
Tochumaru-kun.
How about exchanging it with this?
It's a miniature bicycle that I made. I do it as a hobby.
It's so detailed that you can even change the gears.
Gee, how calculating...
I can see you really cherish that badge.
Huh? Ah, hmm...
But I've completely forgotten the whole point of why it's so important to me.
I see. It's not surprising that you don't remember things from when you were six.
"Affection" "Love" I see. It's not surprising that you don't remember things from when you were six.
"Affection" "Love" Yeah... All I remember is exchanging the kitty badge I had then with this one.
I see.
You don't remember things that clearly from the time you were six either, right?
Well, I guess not...
Those who want to die, come forward!
Do you swear that you won't eat humans ever again?!
Bear?! Boar?! Anaconda?!
It's rather like I try not to remember things.
But those memories I have of rare peaceful, precious days...
I'll never forget them.
Oh? I'd like to hear it. What are those precious memories like?
It's a secret.
Ahh! If it's a secret, I'm more curious now!
Speaking of which...
...I'm curious about what Ragnarok's First Greatest Fist said.
Let's fulfill our promise from that day... some time... soon.
That day? When was "that day"?
Promise? What promise?
I can't remember anything.
Memories from my childhood are somehow vague.
Come to think of it, the First Greatest Fist was staring at this badge then.
Ah! Could it be that the person I exchanged badges with was the First Greatest Fist?!
What?
When you can't remember something no matter what,
if you go to the place, it can give you a hint.
Why don't we go to the place together if you like?
The place? What?! You mean the candy store where I exchanged the badge?
Since I moved once, it's in the neighboring town.
Even if it's a bit far or even if it becomes a waste of time,
it's better than fretting over not being able to remember things.
U-Uhm...
"Affection" "Love"
Let's come back for these weights later.
Did you always carry the key with you?
Huh? Well, if someone attacks us during our shopping,
we'd be at a disadvantage, right? So...
I see... You had it, huh? I see...
If you cheat, it wouldn't be good for you, right? So...
Well, that's true, but... I see...
Well, forget that and let's go... to the candy store in the neighboring town!
Wow... This town has been redeveloped and looks so different.
Yeah, you're right.
Huh?
Ah... well, when we were back at Ryozanpaku, taking off from making the world a better place,
I used to come to the park near here for training runs.
I see... when you were off from making the world a better place, huh? I see...
Let's see... if I remember correctly, it's this way.
Ah! That house!
I remember this house!
Yeah... This area hasn't changed.
Yeah. I feel like we've traveled back in time.
This railroad crossing brings back memories.
I often came here to watch trains.
Yeah, I used to read the ads on the trains from the top of the cherry trees
around here to train my dynamic vision abilities.
If memory serves me, I drew on that wall and got scolded.
Oh yeah... If I remember correctly, Grandpa pushed this utility pole and...
And, and... I beat the crap out of about three thugs with Grandpa under that overpass.
The scale of her memories are rather big...
Ah... this isn't good. My memories all have something to do with martial arts.
What're you saying? They're better than my mediocre, boring memories.
And I don't even remember most of them.
This park...
I knew it!
This is definitely the park...
Come on, Miu-san!
If we pass through this park, it'll be there!
I often used this route as a shortcut.
There it is!
- Hurry up! - Wow!
"Abaraya" - Hurry up! - Wow!
"Abaraya"
So this store is still in business.
Or rather, this place alone is exactly the way it was long ago.
Kenichi-san...
Hm?
To tell you the truth, one of the memories of my precious days
has something to do with this candy store.
What?
Hm?
Is this...
A long time ago, someone exchanged his kitty badge with my yin and yang badge at this place.
Huh?
Ah!
Oh yeah, I remember now!
That time, a girl was crying because she couldn't get the badge she wanted.
I happened to have the kitty badge she wanted so I exchanged it
with the yin and yang badge she had.
When did you first notice about the badge?
It was when I met you for the first time.
Sky?
I'm sorry!
"You Can Make 100 Friends With This Book" I'm sorry!
"You Can Make 100 Friends With This Book" That was reflex!
"Karate Heaven" "Easy to understand" "Bonus DVD" "Let the Terrific Body Revolution Begin!" That was reflex!
"Karate Heaven" "Easy to understand" "Bonus DVD" "Let the Terrific Body Revolution Begin!" M-My books!
"Karate Heaven" "Easy to understand" "Bonus DVD" "Let the Terrific Body Revolution Begin!" L-Let me help you!
"Karate Heaven" "Easy to understand" "Bonus DVD" "Let the Terrific Body Revolution Begin!"
Oh, boy...
Let's see...
I was convinced on our way home from the play,
when you told me about the badge.
That's the yin and yang from Chinese Taoist philosophy.
Hmm... is that what it's called?
A long time ago, I switched this with a badge with a kitty on it
at the neighborhood candy store.
It's been so long, I don't really remember a lot about it though.
But I've been wearing it for no particular reason.
I thought, "There's no mistake about it."
You knew that long? Then why didn't you tell me sooner?
Oh? It's rare to see you around here.
Hm?
Y-You are!
Hey... it's been 10 years, huh? Ken-chan.
I thought it was about time for you to show up.
Th-The First Greatest Fist!
Huh?
Don't be so tense. This is the first time in a long time we've met here.
Let's forget the situation we are in for now.
Incredible... He's showing his fighting spirit openly.
I guess it's just natural,
he's been in hellish training all this time in order to defeat this man.
"Courage" he's been in hellish training all this time in order to defeat this man.
"Courage"
See? As proof I don't intend to fight, I'm not wearing Ragnarok's gloves, right?
Ah! You're right!
Kenichi-san, please be a little cautious.
He's the leader of the group that took Honoka-chan hostage, remember?
What? But it wasn't him who took her hostage.
We might be able to come to an understanding if we talk.
In any case, this candy store hasn't changed at all, don't you think?
The store owner was already an old lady when I was a child,
and she hasn't changed even 10 years later.
She might be some kind of monster.
Yeah, this store is exactly as it was a long time ago.
Uhm...
How are your parents doing?
Well, it's like they're doing too well.
Does your father still do clay shooting?
Ah, yeah. He got some sort of a prize again the other day.
He's pretty skilled as always.
Well, indeed...
Who is this man?
Oh boy... his look tells that he doesn't remember this person at all.
I noticed it last time I saw you too, but you wear that badge all the time, huh?
I'm really glad that you remember our promise.
Ah, hmm... y-yeah...
Then, is the park over there suitable? Let's start right away.
What? Eh... S-Start what?
"Start what?"? "Start what?" you said?!
Ahh!
Hey, say my name!
I'm sorry! I can't remember it!
I knew it.
Old lady! I want these, please!
Okay. Here's your change, 3 million yen.
Uhm... well...
"Yummy Stick"
What?!
The way you open the Yummy Stick!
Could it be... that you're Ryuto Asamiya-kun?!
So you finally remembered me.
You're as easy-going as ever.
Whoa... It brings back memories. Has it been about 10 years?
Well, that's what I've been telling you.
When I was a child, you were the only one who was shorter than I was,
but you're this tall now. I didn't notice it was you.
You haven't changed.
So, have you remembered the promise, the important thing?
Drinking juice on this bench like this vaguely brings back memories from those days...
What? What? What'd you get?
If I remember correctly, you got a strange-looking kitty badge
from gachacacha machine and...
I'll give this to you. This doesn't look cool.
What?!
It's a waste if we throw it away, right?!
You forced it on me.
N-No, I didn't! You wanted it.
Oh? Did I, really?
Then, a mysterious girl came and...
Excuse me...
- How can I get a capsule from this? ...asked us how to use the gachagacha machine.
And she was devastated.
I don't want a yin and yang badge! I want a kitty badge!
It was because I begged Grandpa and was given just one chance to try it.
I wanna try it! I wanna try it!
I guess it can't be helped...
So I...
Say you... uhm...
If you like, I'll give this to you.
The badge would probably feel happier if someone who wants it has it.
But... if I get things from a stranger... I'll be... scolded by Grandpa.
Then, why don't you exchange that badge with this one?
I thought that badge looked kinda cool, so...
Whoa! Are you sure?!
Thank you!
So I barely remembered up to that point.
There was a far more incredible thing that happened after that!
Now, drink more and remember it!
"Special Technique: Chugalug Soda" Now, drink more and remember it!
"Special Technique: Chugalug Soda"
Oh, how vulgar...
Oh yeah, if I remember correctly, I had a scary experience then,
so I tried hard to forget it.
Come to think of it now, they must've been land sharks.
Three scary people drew closer to the old lady and...
Are you listening, you old hag.
This isn't good... Let's go, Ryuto-kun.
Yeah.
Stop it.
Huh?!
Ah!
I won't let rogues pass unpunished!
That's right. I saw something incredible then.
Sorry. I kept my eyes closed since I was scared.
What a wimp.
Even now, I can't forget... her movements.
They were beautiful and sharp as if they were feathers that cut the wind.
It really happened in just a moment.
After that, that girl just went somewhere.
Oh, yeah! That's right! You and I promised that we'd become strong
like that mysterious girl some day, didn't we?!
Oh, wow... It makes me feel nostalgic.
I must've treasured this badge all this time because it has lots of memories.
Oh, yeah, Ryuto-kun!
I have to introduce someone incredible to you.
Tada!
Believe it or not, this person is that kitty badge girl, Miu Furinji-san.
Isn't this an incredible coincidence? I live in a dojo with her.
Oh? I see...
Ken-chan, I want to check one thing.
What does "battle" mean to you?
What? What's the matter all of a sudden?
Answer me!
Well... if I had to say, I'd say it's a "blade"
used to carry out what you feel is right, I guess.
Humph! You're a hypocrite as always.
To see you understand nothing even after 10 years.
Wait, Ryuto-kun.
If you're the leader of Ragnarok, you should be able to end the on-going,
pointless battle with the Shinpaku Federation!
"Pointless battle"?
You really don't get it, do you?!
Fighting itself has a meaning! It's an action of significance!
Defeating your enemy by fighting!
That's the only undisputable sacred power in this world!
You did swear on that day, too, that you'd become strong!
I'll ask you, Ragnarok's First Greatest Fist, one more time.
Please stop the pointless battle.
I said it's not a pointless battle, didn't I?
Okay then... I'll respond to your request...
...as Odin, the First Greatest Fist.
The answer is "no."
The real promise you've forgotten... Let's fulfill it now.
Real... promise?!
Knock it down with a high speed
Open a new path, run through it with the brand new days in your hand
Don't look back, get a chance
There is no choice but to go on step by step
Turn the pain into strength
Don't be afraid! Let's start from here
Go all out! You don't need a goal
With the passionate soul that soars through the sky, yeah, yeah
Come on, dance! Being ordinary isn't enough
Unlock your dream! It sure will be a bright tomorrow
That's right! Let it all hang out until you reach there
What a waste.
It looks like you're surrounded by first-class experts,
but your soft personality is ruining everything.
What'd you say?!
Come at me with the intent to kill. Or you won't be able to break through my sphere of control.
Sphere of control?!
Humph. I'm surprised... to see you don't know what sphere of control is.
And you think you're going to defeat me?
Shut up! I don't care about the sphere of control!
Here I come!
