KINTARO
FIGHT.2 The Legendary Run
Looks great.
That's beautiful, Kin-chan. ???
We often cut up and ate fresh fish on the boat.
That's delicious.
You weren't a fisherman for nothing, were you?
Of course.
Here, try it.
This texture is indescribable.
Delicious!
You did it, Gramps.
It looks delicious!
A real feast, huh?
I caught the parrot fish.
I'm not lying! It's true!
Right, Kintaro?
Yeah, Gramps did catch it.
No one said he didn't.
That's right.
Or are you hiding something?
Actually...
I probably caught it because Kintaro was there.
He was a fisherman.
You were a fisherman?!
In my late wife's family. They live nearby.
Is that so?
Excuse me.
She's here!
You're late.
???
It's nice to see you, Ms. Nakamura.
You're pretty as always.
Thank you.
Let me introduce you.
She owns Club Jardin in the Ginza.
This is Masumi, Kayo's daughter.
I'm Misuzu.
I'm Masumi.
Pleased to meet you.
Thank you for the other day.
???
She turned down my invitation to come here.‘
Until I said Kin-chan would be here.
Let's drink.
Cheers!
Tanaka, don't think it's so easy.
We lowly salarymen can't influence the executives.
All the board members except Mr. Kurokawa...
are on Oshima's side.
That's why we have to make the Chairman act!
What can he do anymore?
Oshima's connections are what saved Yamato Construction.
That's the reality.
The Chairman knows it.
That's why he can't block Oshima.
- Welcome.
Sorry I'm late.
We've been waiting, Arai.
Chairman Yamato, why did you hire Kin-chan?
I'd like to know, too.
Kin - chan saved his life.
He did?
Remember I was on crutches about three months ago?
Yes.
You slipped when you went offshore fishing.
I kept it a secret、because it was embarrassing.
The truth is, when I fell from the rocks.
my leg got caught between the rocks.
I seemed to have broken my leg.
It hurt and I just couldn't move.
The tide kept rising.
I thought I was going to drown.
I almost yelled myself hoarse.
But there was no one to hear me.
Soon the sun would be going down.
I thought I was a goner.
That this was the end of Yamato Ryunosuke.
I was just about to give up.
But a fishing boat appeared in the distance.
I summoned my last ounce of strength...
and yelled out!
Help! Over here!
Gramps! What's wrong?
My leg is trapped!
I was saved.
By Kin-chan.
What a klutz you were!
But how did that prompt you to hire him?
Since he saved my life,
I wanted to thank him.
Gramps, you can walk now? That's great.
Thanks a lot.
My card.
I want to repay you for saving my life.
I only did what is natural.
Tell me if I can do anything for you.
There's nothing.
Anything at all.
There's one thing...
What is it?
Won't you let me work for your company?
I've always wanted to be a salaryman.
You should have seen him smile then.
Is that what happened?
Good Ryuta!
I've learned...
Oshima is secretly trying to buy up Yamato stocks.
His purpose is to be the major stockholder...
and drive out Chairman Yamato...
to gain complete control of the company.
Where's he getting the money?
Here's my guess. Through unaccounted expenditures
that are common in the construction business.
What if he's using this as money to buy stocks with?
That's a possibility.
How do we prove it though?
If it's hooked up with company accounting,
it should be in the computer.
If we can pull it out...
We've got him.
It's not hopeless after all.
Don't be stupid.
Are you trying to ruin the company?
Yamato Construction is surviving...
with over 60% of public works projects won by Oshima!
Maeda, do you like Oshima?
Fool! Don't be stupid!
It doesn't matter if you like the boss or not!
We're not kids!
I can't fight for a boss I hate!
I can lie to others but not to myself!
A salaryman's livelihood depends on his work.
I can't take such an irresponsible action.
I hope you weren't influenced by that crazy guy?
Who do you mean?
That Yajima Kintaro.
He might be a fun guy.
But he's not behaving like a salaryman.
He's got no clue at all!
That's why he could treat Oshima like that!
Maeda...
I'm grateful to Kintaro.
He made me remember when I was honest with myself!
A few unconventional salarymen can't hurt.
Ridiculous!
I'm satisfied with the status quo!
Yamato Construction is fine the way it is!
Count me out!
Maeda!
It's freezing!
Pardon me!
Why?!
Pardon me.
Kin - chan...
Get in.
But…
You object to my company?
No, but...
This is the second time, already!
How nice it is to be young.
The water just rolls off your dewy skin.
i envy you.
Are you being sarcastic?
Why?
You're beautiful yourself.
We're like rivals, aren't we.
I don't intend to lose.
You're not ordinary fool, are you?
You have that all important sense of balance in life.
Kintaro...
Say you build a company and become the owner.
What've you got?
Money, I guess.
Sure, there's that.
But there's something much more valuable.
Your workers.
Workers who shared hard times to build the company.
They'll remain loyal to you in the end!
They're your greatest, most wonderful assets.
Having founded Yamato Construction,
that's how Ryunosuke feels about his workers.
But not Executive Director Oshima.
He's too greedy for power.
Pitiful.
Oshima's trying to take over the company.
Ryunosuke's facing a critical period now.
I'll see what he can do.
What's your relationship with the Chairman?
Just say...
We're stuck with each other.
Kin - chan?
It is you, after all.
You don't have the pompadour hair anymore.
But you're the Kanto Alliance leader, aren't you?
I'm Toru!
Toru?
Hagiwara Toru?!
Kin-chan! You recognize me?!
Rumi, is he the one you always talk about?
He's wonderful!
I missed you, Kin - chan!
You're Kintaro's friend?
I know I changed but you went all out!
After the gang disbanded, I got into this.
Didn't you switch to get it on with Kin - chan?
Don't talk if you don't know!
What's wrong, Rumi?!
Kin-chan loves only one girl.
Never mind.
Want to know about our run?!
Quit it!
No!
What I learned in October 30...
gave me a reason to live.
Kin - chan, is that Akemi's child.
Is she well?
Akemi wasn't very strong.
She died giving him life..
Is that so?
I'll put him to bed.
I didn't know
that Akemj died!
What、kind of girl was Kin - chan's wife?
She was a very nice girl with a dazzling smile.
Though blind,
she was happy from the bottom of her heart.
She took care of the children at the orphanage.
Akemi...
At first, everyone laughed
thinking Kin-chan was weird.
But Akemi's smile made everybody feel happy.
Even Kin - chan took on a softer look.
We all thought…
Kin - chan would give up riding for her.
And always be with her.
We expected it.
But then something terrible happened.
She had lived so bravely through her handicap.
And she had finally fallen in love.
After that Akemi attempted suicide.
She lived, but her soul had died.
She was just a shell of her former self.
Akemi's smile disappeared.
So ..cruel!
The day Akemi was discharged.
Kin - chan called the Alliance together.
Akemi …
Get on.
Quit looking so gloomy!
Get on behind me.
Then it began.
The legendary Run of October 30!
We went from Yasukuni Avenue to Keio Avenue,
passing the Imperial Palace to Tamagawa.
We took all of Tokyo.
We couldn't stop for a second.
If we did, we would lose.
We didn't stop for lights or traffic.
We raced past anyone who tried to stop us.
All the gangs in the Kanto joined Kin-chan.
After running through all of Tokyo.
We finally reached Tamagawa, our destination.
Everyone was crying.
We were so moved, our tears kept coming.
Do you understand?
See how much fire there is in life!!
I'll look after you all my life!
So don't do anything stupid again.
Okay?
That's when it happened.
Three guys ran to Kin-chan.
Kin - chan! Forgive us!
No, that's too much to expect!
We're the ones who did your girl!
We knew who she was!
We're sorry! You can do anything to us!
Even kill us!
They belonged to the gang?
That's awful!
They wanted to make him leave Akemi...
so he'd stay in the gang.
He killed them, right?
We expected it!
Or break some arms, at least.
But Kin- chan did something...
that made Yajima Kintaro a legend in biker history.
It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter at all!
No matter what happens, I'll always love Akemi.
She's the only girl for me.
Kin - chan...
That doesn't matter.
I say to you now!
Listen to me!
We're tied down by rules!
We got no privileges at all!
We're trash!
Never forget our run today!
No matter how much they ties us down!
Or treat us like dirt!
In life...
there's fire!!
That's all!
Kin - chan. ..
Kin - chan wanted to give Akemi the courage to live.
That's why he risked his life on that run.
Take care.
Kin - chan's gang were all sent to the reformatory.
Two years later he got out, married Akemi...
and went to be a fisherman in Akemi's home village.
Then the Kanto Alliance broke up.
But not one forgot Kin-chan!
I like you.
What happened?
Nothing.
The Chairman wants you.
I'm going to the toilet first.
I already went.
What's up, Gramps?
Sit down.
Why do you look so serious?
Just sit down and listen.
Just decided...
to forget that you saved my life.
And you can't call me Gramps anymore!
Chairman, I understand.
I, Yajima Kintaro of General Affairs,
am going to bed now. Excuse me. sir!
So you're finally going to let Kintaro...
be a real employee now?
That means...
You still haven't given up, have you?!
Toru, take care.
You too.
You can do it. You'll make a great salaryman.
Thanks.
I'll do my best, too.
I will. That's what you taught me.
Thank you, Kin - chan.
Thank you, Toru.
Take care.
Kin- chan!
Good morning, Ryuta!
Morning, Mama.
Ryuta, that's not Mama. She's Teacher.
I don't mind being called Mama.
He's impossible.
You cut your hair, didn't you?
Yes.
Mr. Yajima, join me for lunch?
I know a great place.
I'll eat in the company cafeteria.
There?
It's pretty good.
I want to talk to you.
About what?
We can't talk here. Come with me.
Sorry, but you're not my type.
How did it go?
He turned you down?
But he still hasn't joined those others, either.
The stocks are under the names of Oshima's wife,
daughter, son, relatives and friends.
Shukan Bunkan says it will make a great expose story.
Really?
I found more evidence, too.
He's still buying Yamato stocks.
Last year, Oshima bought 2.7 million shares.
That's 3.2 billion yen in total.
Can he borrow so much?
Never. He's got to be embezzling company funds.
Let's tell Mr. Yamato. And give him our support.
Right! Lets go!
Fools!
Do you know what you're saying?!
We just wanted to restore you to power.
What?!
Know your place!
Get out!
Go back and do your own work!
But sir.
Quiet!
Get out!
Now!
I told you! He wants no part in this.
A wiretap!
Wiretap?
His office is bugqed! The Chairman knows it!
That's why he was so anxious to get us out?
That's possible.
The Chairman's for it! Let's go!
You're mistaken.
Stop being so stupid!
The Chairman knows how we feel.
You're right.
But isn't Oshima coming back tomorrow?
There's no time. The board meeting's in two days.
Too late to use the media to expose him.
Theres just< one way.
Tap his secret file in the computer?
I'll go talk to weekly magazines.
Stupid!
I won't be responsible!
Wait, Maeda!
You're the computer whiz. We need your help.
Forget it.
Maeda!
Ryuta!
Papa!
You wanted this, didn't you?
Stop that Jun!
I'm sorry!
Your eyebrows.
Your nose.
Your mouth.
Your face.
Look out!
Stupid fool!
Ryuta!
Thank you, Mr. Maeda!
II make sure Ryuta never forgets your name.
You saved his life, after all.
Why're you here, though?
i came to see you.
Tanaka and the others are gonna do something stupid!
It's partly because of your influence!
I came to make you leave Yamato Construction!
Mr. Maeda...
If that's what you want, I'll go.
Kintaro...
That's okay.
Mr. Maeda...
No good. I start over again.
The code's pretty tough.
No good! I'm not good enough.
Mr. Maeda.
Maeda!
The codes too tough for you guys to crack.
Come I come in? I'd like to talk to you.
Sure.
It's kind of messy.
Is this Ryuta's mother?
See you. Ryuta. Bye bye.
Bye. Mama.
What'd you want to talk about?
Maeda! ‘
I brought some food.
How's it going?
Rats!
We're trying to expose Director Oshima's crimes.
It will help everyone in the company.
Does that mean you want to save the Chairman?
Of course.
Please.
Help us fight.
Okay!
Call me when you need me.
Thanks.
Do you think that'll make Ryunosuke happy?
Were you eavesdropping?!
The door was open.
Listen...
Baby mice shouldn't be wandering around.
Stay put! Got that?!
This is for Kin - chan.
You made lunch for me too?
Since I fixed mine. Don't get funny ideas.
Masumi...
I hope you didn't forget what I said last night.
I didn't.
It'll taste awful.
Thank you.
Welcome back, sir.
Any luck?
Nothing.
Oshima's back.
I made you lunch. Eat it later.
Thank you.
Masumi.
Good luck.
Thanks.
I'll eat the bigger one.
Know your place! Get out!
Get back to your own work!
Is that all?
Yes.
He sure got excited.
He seems to have lost interest in Yamato.
No, it's premature to say that.
Mr. Yamato probably knows his office has been wiretapped.
That was probably all an act.
That old coot. What's he scheming, anyway?
Anyway, it'll all be settled at tomorrow's meeting.
It's probably too late for him to do anything.
Have Mr. Mita deal with that hacker.
It's been taken care of, sir.
It's finally tomorrow, Ryunosuke?
You're ready, I hope?
If I can help with anything,
don't hesitate to ask.
I won't.
What're you doing?
Working overtime.
Who are you people?
Go home.
Why can't we work overtime?
Get out!
Go on.
Why can't we work?!
Kin - chan!
I forgot something. Let me in.
No! We can't let you guys in there.
We're Yamato employees!
Why can't we go inside?
Mr. Oshima's orders.
He's as dirty as ever.
Making scum like you keep company workers out.
He's the lowest.
Get out of here!
Kin - chan!
Get in, if you can!
Fine.
Stop me, if you can!
Let's go!
Call an ambulance.
Masumi, Tanaka, I've got Kin - chan.
You can go.
But...
I'll get it done tomorrow morning.
We're counting on you, Maeda.
Don't worry.
Help him, Kin - chan.
Look after Ryuta.
Sure thing.
Yes, I understand. Don't worry, sir.
You scared me! You're still up?
You didn't heed my warning.
It's too big for you kids.
Stay out of this!
Why?! Were doing it for the company!
It's going to help everybody!
The fool's beyond all help.
Nothing, yet?
The meeting's in less than an hour.
Damn.
Once more.
I'll try once more.
Blocked again!
Only 8 bytes! Why can't I break through?!
I wanna see the Chairman of the Board.
It's about Yajima Kintaro, an employee here.
