[00:04] Fuji
You aren't the only one...
[00:06] Fuji
Scorpions who wanna close
their eyes to their true nature,
[00:09] Fuji
poisoned by the venom of dreams.
[00:13] Fuji
Sorry, Mr. Nanbu, but the ride stops here.
[00:18] Nanbu
At least for today—
[00:19] Fuji
You're gonna tell him everything.
[00:25] Joe
Talk about impatient.
Already here for the prize money?
[00:29] Nanbu
J-Joe...
[00:35] Joe
Damn it, there's blood in my piss again.
[00:44] Nanbu
Joe... the truth is...
[00:45] Joe
Just tell him, Pops.
[00:47] Joe
It's too early to celebrate, isn't it?
[00:50] Joe
The real fight starts—
[00:52] Nanbu
The real fight isn't happening!
[02:43] (Flashback) Nanbu
I've been risking my life on
bluffs for a long damn time now!
[02:47] (Flashback) Nanbu
I'll show you exactly what we frauds can do!
[02:56] (Flashback) Fuji
Not gonna cut it.
[02:58] (Flashback) Fuji
I don't want to hear this
desperate talk of dreams.
[03:02] (Flashback) Fuji
I want a real answer, from the real you.
[03:05] (Flashback) Fuji
The two of you are going to Megalonia.
[03:07] (Flashback) Fuji
But not for the championship.
[03:11] (Flashback) Fuji
What can you and the kid do?
What would be the best thing to do?
[03:16] (Flashback) Fuji
Tell me what comes to mind, Mr. Nanbu.
[03:33] Fuji
"But you'll sting me, won't you?"
[03:36] Fuji
"I would never do that."
[03:38] Fuji
"Because if you die halfway across, I'll drown."
[03:46] Nanbu
So I told him...
[03:49] Nanbu
We could throw a fight at Megalonia.
The biggest fixed match ever.
[03:54] Nanbu
And our only chance is your
opener—the one against Burroughs.
[03:59] Nanbu
Fujimaki is gonna be running the bets
for Megalonia. That's tons of cash.
[04:03] Nanbu
There's no other way for us to be free from—
[04:05] Joe
You never believed in me, did you?
[04:08] Nanbu
That's not it!
[04:10] Nanbu
The more you won, the more
I started to think you had a shot!
[04:14] Nanbu
But... it's too late now.
SIGN Team Nowhere
[04:17] Nanbu
I didn't have any other
way of getting that fake ID!
[04:22] Nanbu
Joe, I guarantee that you've got real skill.
[04:26] Nanbu
And this isn't the end!
[04:28] Nanbu
Just think of it like a detour. All right?
[04:32] Nanbu
So in the next match, you can put this on...
[04:36] Joe
You asshole!
[04:40] Nanbu
Ow...
[04:42] Nanbu
Look, you gotta face facts, Joe.
[04:45] Nanbu
Fujimaki's not the kind
of guy we can reason with!
[04:48] Nanbu
I did all this because I didn't
want you to end up—
[04:51] Joe
You were only worried about yourself.
[04:53] Nanbu
You little prick!
[04:54] Nanbu
Where do you get off?!
[04:56] Nanbu
Who do you think made it possible
for a stray dog like you to get this far?!
[05:00] Nanbu
Frauds like you and me...
[05:02] Nanbu
We can't become the real deal,
even if we die trying!
[05:07] Joe
That's just like you.
[05:09] Joe
You don't have a real bone in your body.
[05:12] Joe
Everything about you is hot air.
[05:14] Nanbu
No!
[05:15] Joe
I was stupid for ever thinking otherwise.
[05:18] Nanbu
Wait, Joe! We're not done talking!
[05:21] Joe
We're done. Period.
[05:29] Sachio
Tell me it's a lie, Pops!
[05:31] Sachio
I thought we were a team!
[05:33] Sachio
We made it so far...
[05:35] Sachio
We were gonna go all the way in Megalonia.
[05:40] Sachio
Say something, damn it!
[05:41] Nanbu
Shut up!
[05:42] Nanbu
There's a time for dreaming,
and this isn't it, you stupid brat!
[05:58] Fuji
That's the thing about sweet dreams...
It always hurts when you wake up.
[06:03] Fuji
This is what it all comes down to.
[06:06] Fuji
If you don't deliver on our deal, Mr. Nanbu,
[06:08] Fuji
you won't be the only one dying.
[06:11] Fuji
They both will, too.
[06:42] Spider
Yuri is truly a grand champion.
[06:45] Spider
The thought of seeing him laid
out in the ring makes me sad,
[06:49] Spider
but some things can't be avoided.
[06:50] Spider
The stronger fighter wins. That's Megalo Box.
[06:55] Press
And now a word from Mr. Burroughs.
[06:59] Burroughs
Somebody put a collar and drag him
[07:01] Burroughs
to the stadium on the day of the match.
[07:04] Press
Now, the second match of Megalonia
[07:07] Press
is going to be Burroughs versus "Gearless" Joe,
[07:10] Press
and as you can see, they haven't
attended today's press conference,
[07:12] Director
There's been no word from Team Nowhere.
[07:13] Press
and haven't offered a reason why.
[07:15] Press
We just hope there's no trouble.
[07:18] Press
And now, a question for the champion...
[07:20] Press
You've been the favorite to win the
tournament since its announcement...
[07:22] Abuhachi
It's like something out of a dream, huh?
[07:25] Abuhachi
Can you believe I was working
on that piece of crap Gear
[07:27] Abuhachi
you were using only three months ago?
[07:29] Abuhachi
And now, look at you...
[07:39] Abuhachi
I didn't think I'd ever see you
here again, to be honest.
[07:43] Abuhachi
Did you get lost or something?
[07:46] Joe
Yeah.
[07:58] Nanbu
I was worried, damn it.
[08:00] Nanbu
Come on, get up. We're going for a ride.
[08:05] Nanbu
Don't be a stubborn little ass.
[08:07] Nanbu
You want Fujimaki to make you into soup?
[08:10] Sachio
Joe said it was all over!
[08:13] Sachio
So much for going all the way.
[08:14] Sachio
You used him.
[08:16] Nanbu
And so did you.
[08:18] Sachio
Give that back!
[08:20] Nanbu
You thought Joe entering
Megalonia and winning it
[08:23] Nanbu
would be revenge for your old man, didn't you?
[08:27] Sachio
H-How do you...
[08:29] Nanbu
You remember Mizuhara, right?
[08:32] Nanbu
Something about the way he
looked at you caught my attention.
[08:37] (Flashback) Nanbu
Do you know the boy?
[08:40] (Flashback) Mizuhara
Well, a guy I worked with at Shirato
used to show me pictures of his kid.
[08:44] (Flashback) Mizuhara
Bragging about his son.
[08:47] (Flashback) Nanbu
What was this guy like?
[08:51] (Flashback) Mizuhara
A freelance engineer, like me.
[08:55] (Flashback) Mizuhara
I guess he was too talented. Poor guy...
[08:58] (Flashback) Mizuhara
Shirato stole the research data
he had spent years working on.
[09:03] (Flashback) Nanbu
What happened to him?
[09:08] (Flashback) Mizuhara
He's dead now.
[09:11] (Flashback) Mizuhara
Leaving his wife and kid behind...
[09:14] Sachio
Yeah. It's true.
[09:17] Sachio
My Dad... was killed by Shirato.
[09:21] Nanbu
What about your mother?
[09:23] Sachio
Got sick. Died a year later.
[09:26] Sachio
I can't do anything, but I bet Joe could...
[09:30] Sachio
He could beat those jerks at Shirato!
[09:34] Sachio
But now... because of you...
[09:39] Sachio
Where are you going?!
[09:41] Sachio
Don't run from me!
[09:55] Sachio
Is this...
[09:58] Nanbu
Go get your revenge.
[10:02] Nanbu
See, you and me...
[10:04] Nanbu
we just happened to get on
the same boat, chasing our own goals.
[10:08] Nanbu
That's why neither Joe nor I ever asked
you about why you joined up with us.
[10:14] Nanbu
But that's not how it is anymore.
[10:23] Nanbu
You wanna take Shirato down, right?
[10:26] Nanbu
This is all I can do for you.
[10:29] Nanbu
The rest is up to you.
[10:54] Sachio
My revenge... is going to the top with Joe.
[11:00] Nanbu
We both bet on Joe.
[11:03] Nanbu
But the thing is...
SIGN Team Nowhere
[11:04] Nanbu
He's the one who decides
how this will play out.
[11:10] Nanbu
And there's no telling what
the kid will do until it happens.
[11:17] Sachio
"Gearless" Joe would never throw a match.
[11:20] Nanbu
Then you need to hide.
[11:23] Nanbu
I doubt even Fujimaki has enough
muscle to mess with Shirato.
[11:29] Nanbu
This is for Joe's sake, too.
[11:33] Shirato
Forcing a stop to the ceremony,
being absent at the press conference...
[11:37] Shirato
And now you want me to take care of a child?
[11:40] Shirato
You certainly do as you please, don't you?
[11:43] Nanbu
I just explained the boy's deal.
[11:45] Nanbu
You'll be able to learn
the facts if you look into it.
[11:48] Nanbu
I figure you at least owe him a helping hand.
[11:54] Nanbu
Even if it's only until Joe's match is over.
[11:57] Shirato
I am not happy that the two
of you are in Megalonia.
[12:02] Shirato
I'm not sure what exactly you're planning here,
[12:06] Shirato
but did it never occur to you that I would
demand Joe's withdrawal from the tournament
[12:10] Shirato
in exchange for taking
the child into my custody?
[12:15] Nanbu
You wouldn't do that.
[12:18] Nanbu
Although...
[12:20] Nanbu
That doesn't sound half bad either.
[12:30] Nanbu
This is the last you'll hear from me.
[12:35] Nanbu
You take this.
[12:38] Nanbu
Look after Joe, Sachio!
[12:45] Sachio
What about you?
[12:47] Nanbu
Bye, kid.

[13:08] ANN
The day has finally come!
[13:11] ANN
A battle to determine who stands
at the peak of Megalo Boxing!
[13:14] ANN
We're nearing the opening salvo of Megalonia!
[13:17] ANN
Take a good look at this capacity crowd!
[13:21] ANN
On the verge of this historic event,
[13:23] ANN
the anticipation and excitement
are hotter than ever!
[13:27] Military
I look forward to seeing
what you've put together.
[13:29] Shirato
Certainly.
[13:30] Director
Ms. President.
[13:32] Shirato
Pardon me.
[13:33] Military
Sure.
[13:38] Director
After an internal audit,
it seems that the design data
[13:41] Director
for the integrated Gear's
immunosuppressant mechanism
[13:44] Director
was procured irregularly.
[13:47] Director
It seems certain that the original
developer was the boy's father.
[14:23] ANN
Fighting out of the east corner...
[14:25] ANN
the second-ranked IMA boxer...
with the Tres Familias...
[14:30] ANN
Pepe "The Spider"...
[14:33] ANN
Iglesias!
[14:41] Commentary
Pepe Iglesias!
[14:42] Commentary
Can the vicious Mexican
spider lay the champ out here
[14:46] Commentary
in the ring of Megalonia, like he claimed?
[14:53] Announcer
And now, fighting out of the west corner...
[15:16] Announcer
The number-one ranked IMA boxer!
[15:18] Announcer
With Team Shirato, the King of Kings:
[15:22] Announcer
Yuri!
[15:32] Commentary
The implacable champion, Yuri!
[15:34] Commentary
Sporting the integrated Gear that
has become Shirato's calling card,
[15:37] Commentary
it's become as integrated with this brilliant
boxer's body as the name suggests,
[15:41] Commentary
allowing him to fend off every
claim on his title so far!
[15:44] Shirato
The integrated Gear was developed
thanks to the sacrifices of all involved.
[15:49] Shirato
We consider victory to be an obligation.
[15:54] Shirato
Director Asamoto.
[15:55] Director
Ma'am?
[15:56] Shirato
Please put together a list of everyone
involved in the irregularity you mentioned.
[15:59] Shirato
We'll make sure that they're dealt with, in full.
[16:01] Director
Understood.
[16:19] Crowd
Go, Yuri!
[16:21] Crowd
Pepe! Mátalo!
[16:22] Commentary
The match begins, and
Pepe presses aggressively forward!
[16:26] Color
He's got that long reach, and a posture
that makes it hard to get inside...
[16:31] Color
Combine that with the variety
of attacks that he can pull off,
[16:34] Color
and over time, his opponents find
they're unable to fight back effectively,
[16:37] Color
like they're caught in a spider's web.
[16:40] Color
That's how he got the nickname, Spider.
[16:49] Commentary
Neither fighter is giving an inch so far.
[16:52] Commentary
Just how will the orthodox Yuri
deal with Pepe's unique style?
[16:59] Commentary
And that's the end of the first round!
[17:01] Commentary
Things are already incredibly tense!
[17:04] Color
Most likely, one of these men will be
going on the offensive in the next round.
[17:31] Commentary
Pepe seems to have finally caught Yuri!
[17:32] Commentary
Pepe seems to have finally caught Yuri!
[17:33] Commentary
The first hit of the match to land!
[17:33] Commentary
The first hit of the match to land!
[17:35] Spider
I'm gonna kill you.
[18:03] Ref
He's down!
[18:05] Count
One...
[18:07] Count
Two...
[18:07] Commentary
Wha... What just happened?!
[18:09] Count
Three...
[18:10] Commentary
Pepe dropped as though
he had just been shot!
[18:10] Count
Four...
[18:12] Count
Five...
[18:14] Count

[18:15] Color
It was a left hook.

And I don't think Pepe ever saw it coming.
[18:17] Count
Eight...
[18:19] Count
Nine...
[18:21] Count
Ten.
[18:23] Ref
With a K.O. 2:10 into the 2nd round,
[18:26] Ref
the winner is Yuri with Team Shirato!
[18:51] Joe
Hey there, boy.
[18:52] Joe
Where'd you come from?
[19:08] Joe
So he's yours?
[19:10] Yuri
Yeah.
[19:11] Yuri
It's odd, though.
He usually doesn't like strangers.
[19:15] Joe
That was a hell of a hook, man.
[19:17] Joe
I actually felt bad for Pepe
when it landed full on.
[19:22] Yuri
When you get in the ring, you either
win or lose. There's nothing else to it.
[19:27] Yuri
Everyone's equal.
[19:33] Yuri
Why don't you use Gear?
[19:36] Yuri
Why insist on fighting without it?
[19:40] Joe
At first, it was just a bluff
to get my name out there...
[19:44] Joe
But now, it's something else.
[19:50] Joe
Every time I get in the ring,
I'm betting my life on my fists.
[19:54] Joe
It's scary as hell, but it's so
much fun I can barely stand it.
[20:02] Joe
I wanna have a real match
against you, pure and simple.
[20:07] Joe
I get the feeling that, against you,
I can go further than I've ever gone before.
[20:12] Joe
What about you?
What're you fighting for?
[20:18] Shirato
A dream.
[20:21] Shirato
Someone believed in me when I was
nothing, and brought me this far...
[20:25] Shirato
I want to make her dream come true.
[20:27] Shirato
That's why I do it.
SIGN Team Nowhere
[20:40] Nanbu
Sweet dreams, huh?
[20:45] Fuji
Did you discuss things with your partner?
[20:48] Nanbu
You bet.
[20:50] Nanbu
The thought of finally being
out from underneath this debt...
[20:53] Nanbu
Just had to have a celebratory drink, y'know?
[20:55] Fuji
You really are a scorpion.
[21:02] Fuji
Have you ever heard that story?
[21:04] Fuji
The one about a scorpion
who wants to cross a river.
[21:10] Fuji
But scorpions can't swim.
[21:13] Fuji
So the scorpion asks a frog
that happens to be by the river
[21:16] Fuji
if he'd give him a ride on his
back, so he can get across.
[21:21] Fuji
The frog asks him:
"But you'll sting me, won't you?"
[21:26] Fuji
The scorpion responds: "I would never do that."
[21:29] Fuji
"Because if you die halfway across, I'll drown."
[21:35] Fuji
The frog is convinced, and kindly
lets the scorpion onto his back,
[21:40] Fuji
and starts to cross the river.
[21:43] Fuji
But on the way, the scorpion stings the frog.
[21:47] Fuji
As he's losing consciousness, the frog says:
[21:51] Fuji
"You told me you wouldn't sting me."
[21:54] Fuji
And the scorpion tells him...
[21:58] Nanbu
"I couldn't help it."
[22:00] Nanbu
"It's in a scorpion's nature."
[22:10] Abu
Your partner came by last night.
[22:14] Abu
He said to give this to you if you show up.
[22:19] Abu
So, tell me...
Who should I be betting on tonight?
