You shall become a tiger
yuke yuke Tiger
Go, go, Tiger
Tiger Mask!
What's wrong, you two?
The trail to Yellow Devil's identity is gone.
What should I do now?
And you?
Naoto-san donated it all.
All what?
The prize money. 100,000 dollars.
What?!
All the money from the Masked World Tournament?
- Monopoly. - My 100,000 dollars.
What's done is done.
Look ahead!
Let's train! We're going to Fuji, Naoto!
Crossroads
Yes, this is Naoto.
Yes... What?
Do you remember your promise?
Yes.
Oh, good.
I've always wanted to go to Kourakuen Palace.
Oh, right. Pro wrestling! I remember!
I know someone in the NJPW. I'll call you when I get tickets.
Okay then.
Why are you smirking?
Huh?
Get in.
Okay.
Yes... Yes.
Oh! I understand.
The NJPW Kourakuen tournament.
Yes... not at all. I'll tell Tiger.
All right!
Fight!
Hey.
Who wore the Yellow Devil mask 3 years ago?
Where is he now?
I don't know!
Takuma!
Answer me!
He's special.
I don't know his face. I don't know anything!
What? Seriously?!
Yeah. I joined the Tiger's Den for revenge.
To defeat Yellow Devil.
I see...
The real one must be somewhere in the Tiger's Den.
I swear I'll find him!
But, Takuma, we're...
I don't care if this is the bottom of the Tiger's Den.
I'll just climb.
Welcome home.
Odin.
Seems like the new hope lost to Tiger Mask. You now face the Tiger's execution!
Get up here. You're the rookies' sandbag.
Coach.
What?
I'll enter the Hole.
What?!
The Hell in the Hole.
Are you serious?
That's a real death match!
Wrestlers who enter the Hole are excused from the Tiger's execution.
Winners can return to the outside.
I'm not rotting in here.
Coach, I'm entering too.
Kevin.
The match is a battle royale.
Let's win together, Takuma.
I'm entering too!
This isn't your playground!
So we have three reckless fools here.
Remember, massive sums of money are bet in the Hole.
It's bet on your lives.
Do you get it?
Yeah. You're telling us to bet our lives.
Okay.
Management will welcome a holding of the Hole.
Keep up your training until then!
Takaoka-san, that's enough for today.
What's wrong? Feeling ill or something?
Ah... I think it might be consecutive match fatigue.
I see. No point in pushing yourself.
Yes.
Two tickets for the upcoming Kourakuen tournament?
Got it. I'll have 'em ready.
Thank you.
I'm counting on you in the match.
The match?
It's a semi, so put on a good show!
Ha...
Haruna-chan!
Haruna-chan, where are you?
In my room.
Haruna-chan!
Welcome back!
Am I in the NJPW Kourakuen tournament?
You heard already? You got an offer, so I said "yes."
What? What is it?
Nothing.
A match... What am I gonna do?
What?
Wrestle Max Dramatic War!
Tonight's match is the main event!
It's the GWM World Tag Championship match!
The champion team goes for a consecutive attack!
A clean hit! It's a double passenger!
The Max Dome is at 38% capacity today.
Merchandise sales are down and are below the pay line.
What's with this country's audience!
I can only say my research was insufficient.
We need a new wrestler for Japanese audiences.
What about Tiger Mask?
What? But he's...
Miss X, your objective is to dominate the Japanese market.
Tiger Mask is merely an accident that occured on the way to that objective.
Exploit whatever's exploitable.
Will it really be that easy?
It doesn't matter who he is or what he wants.
Put a wrestler who gathers crowds in the Max Dome.
That's all.
Miss X, the Tiger's Den
let you live, despite Tiger Mask's becoming the Masked World Champion.
But, if the Max Dome is not filled in the next tournament...
It will be a full house.
Don't let me down.
So... Tiger Mask.
Naoto already went ahead.
Huh? Why?
Who knows?
Did you do something?
Of course not!
What should I do?
You'd better come up with something.
Or, you should tell the truth.
Huh?
Say that you're Tiger Mask.
That's...
impossible.
Tiger Mask isn't just my name.
It carries other people's wishes...
eras, legends, and things like that.
That's why he's not me.
So Tiger Mask is Tiger Mask?
Yes.
But what are you going to do from here?
From here?
Do you like Ruri-chan?
Wait, Daisuke-san!
We're just going to see some pro wrestling together.
If that's really all it is, I wouldn't say anything.
But that girl...
What?
Nothing.
Well, I better be going.
I'll figure it out.
Oh.
Huh?
We're going on your bike?
Yes...
Oh. Right.
I'll go by car.
This is yours, Ruriko-san?
It's my father's.
Let's go.
Of course he can't.
Kourakuen Palace
So this is Kourakuen.
Yes.
How about a T-shirt!
Thank you very much!
Oh wow!
It's always like this.
Tiger Mask goods!
Get your Tiger goods right here!
We've got lots!
There really are a lot!
We should find our seats first.
Oh, yes.
Oh! Tiger Mask has a fight today. Good!
Huh? Didn't you come to today's Kourakuen tournament to see Tiger Mask, Ruriko-san?
Today is another sudden entry, right?
Oh, yes. They suddenly decided...
Uh, I mean, it was apparently a sudden decision.
I want to know more about pro wrestling.
I wanted to come to this stadium they call a holy place.
Because of Daisuke-san?
Maybe. Maybe not.
Oh!
What is it?
I'll go get some drinks.
What would you like, Ruriko-san?
They've got beer and stuff.
I'm driving, so...
Oh, right. I'm on a bike too.
Staff only
Sir, you can't go past here.
Huh?
Excuse me.
Go ahead.
Kuruma-san!
Yes?
Oh...
Please send your comments to editorial.
Let me through! Please let me through!
Staff only
Thank you all for coming to the NJPW Kourakuen tournament!
Okay.
Here goes!
Oh, Tiger Mask-kun!
You hadn't shown up so I was worried.
Sorry. But I'm here now.
It's fine.
I'm counting on you.
Here you go. Thank you!
Oops!
Hey!
Ah...
What? Why are you here?
And dressed like that!
I know! I'm hurrying!
What is he doing?
Fight!
Was a soda okay?
Thank you.
Do it!
Makabe! Makabe!
Everyone's so excited.
Those two units are in a feud.
"Units?"
Um... "Teams."
KOKESHI! KOKESHI! KOKESHI!
He fell on his neck!
It's fine. They've trained for this.
But people get hurt during matches, right?
Well, it is a fight after all.
And treatment takes time.
It's true that Tanahashi still hasn't recovered, but...
Honma!
Oh!
1...
2...
3!
Doctor!
Oh!
Would you like some food?
A hot dog maybe?
I'm fine.
I'll get something!
Hmm... So today's sales...
And the stock...
Tiger Mask-kun!
Where were you?
You're not in costume!
Sorry. I'll change now. It's fine!
Hey now.
Next is Tiger Mask's entry!
- Tiger! - Tiger Mask!
Tiger Mask!
As expected, Tiger Mask is quite popular.
I guess I have to admit it.
Go, Tiger!
Tiger!
1...
2...
3!
Hooray!
Let's go.
Huh? But the main...
We're not here for fun.
Tiger Mask!
What's that finish move called?
What?
A somersault kick to a double knee to a drop on the knees doesn't print well.
I'll think about it.
Can I give it a name?
Tiger Mask-kun! I'd like you in the next series!
Call my agent!
Huh? Oh, uh, right.
Tranquilo! Calm down!
That took a while. It's the main fight.
I, uh...
Tiger Mask's fight was intense!
Really?
That's good to hear. Did you enjoy it?
Oh... Yes.
Hooray!
Thank you for today.
You were busy weren't you?
Well, I just had some unexpected work.
I've made up my mind now.
I'm going to change where I work.
Huh?
You're quitting the hospital?
It's part of my father's group.
I've been wanting to go elsewhere.
I got an offer from a doctor I know.
They're looking for nurses.
Oh. Really?
It's a major foreign company, so my father won't object.
You're going overseas?
Of course not!
The job is right near here. At the Max Dome!
What?!
I'm going to be a GWM Japan medical staff.
I'll call you when I get settled in.
I'll get the tickets next time.
But I won't be able to sit with you.
See you later.
Oh, right.
There you are!
Couldn't you have helped with carrying the goods?
Instead of making a meek girl do everything!
Oh, sorry.
Naoto-san, did something happen?
Are you ill?
I'm fine.
That's right. You were in the match.
Oh, about the name of that finish move...
Huh? It's Miss X. What does she want now?
This is a request for Tiger Mask to participate in the next Wrestle Max.
Too bad. Tiger's schedule is full.
That's a breach of contract.
What?
The Masked World Champion
must enter matches designated by GWM.
It's written in the Masked World Tournament contract.
It's written in the corner in tiny writing.
Canceling a match means a penalty of 100,000 dollars.
Plus the cost of canceling the tournament.
But...
I'll be in touch about the date and opponent.
Give my regards to Tiger Mask.
What do we do?
I'll do it.
To find Yellow Devil I have to beat the Tiger's Den wrestlers.
That's right.
Okay, I'll negotiate the terms.
Let's take on Max Dome!
What?
Why is it Max Dome?
What's with this worry of enemy territory?
Fight!
Yeah...
Angels and demons intertwined by fate
