[00:06] Radio
    The winner of tonight's match
    will go on to confront Yuri,
[00:09] Radio
    who won with a decisive KO the other day.
[00:13] Radio
    Will "Gearless" Joe, who managed
    to slide into the spot of Final One,
[00:15] Radio
    endure the onslaught of Burroughs
    to pull off another miraculous win?
[00:20] Radio
    Expectations are high after
    his defeat of Shirato Michio,
[00:23] Radio
    with not just experts, but even the exacting
    standards of overseas bookmakers,
[00:28] Radio
    predicting a victory for Joe.
[00:30] Radio
    Those odds are currently being
    listed between 3/1 and 5/1.
[00:38] Nanbu
    Yeah?
[00:39] Fujimaki
    Amazing, isn't it?
[00:40] Fujimaki
    You've got the whole world
    fooled with your scam.
[00:44] Nanbu
    I don't remember asking for any protection.
[00:48] Fujimaki
    I apologize if it makes you
    uncomfortable. I have faith in you.
[00:53] Fujimaki
    I'll see you at the arena.
[03:07] Sachio
    It was... out by the dumpster, so...
[03:10] Shirato
    Thank you.
[03:11] Sachio
    Just paying you back
    for the stay and the food.
[03:13] Sachio
    I don't wanna owe you anything.
[03:16] Shirato
    I can never keep flowers alive.
[03:18] Shirato
    They die before the petals
    have a chance to fall.
[03:24] Shirato
    That looks like good luck charm.
[03:27] Sachio
    Well, I'm looking after Joe's ID, so...
[03:29] Shirato
    You're doing it for him, then?
[03:34] Sachio
    My... My Mom liked these flowers.
[03:40] Shirato
    You can still make it in time,
    if you leave now.
[03:43] Sachio
    I'm not going! I've made up my mind.
[03:46] Shirato
    Don't you want to see it yourself?
[03:49] Shirato
    The sight of him standing
    in the ring at Megalonia.
[03:52] Sachio
    I don't need to see to know!
[03:54] Sachio
    Joe's not gonna lose until he fights Yuri!
[04:01] Shirato
    I see. Well, that's your choice to make.
[04:24] MC
    Glen Burroughs!
[04:26] MC
    The heavyweight boxer who stalks
    the ring like it's the savanna!
[04:30] MC
    Facing this wild beast,
[04:33] MC
    is the man who fights only with
    his fists, the unarmed hunter!
SIGN    Team Nowhere
[04:51] MC
    The man who's scored upset after
    miraculous upset with no enhancement,
[04:54] MC
    "Gearless" Joe!
[05:10] (Flashback) Sachio
    Hey, Joe...
[05:11] (Flashback) Sachio
    What do you do when you're scared?
[05:15] (Flashback) Sachio
    Like, when you're afraid to make
    a move... and you freeze up.
[05:20] (Flashback) Sachio
    I want to be able to fight on my own, too.
[05:26] (Flashback) Joe
    Touch something that's around you.
    Doesn't matter what it is.
[05:31] (Flashback) Joe
    It helps put you in the moment.
[05:34] (Flashback) Joe
    Reminds you what you need to do.
[05:39] (Flashback) Joe
    That's a trick I learned a long time ago.
[05:41] (Flashback) Joe
    It's probably a load of crap, but...
[05:43] (Flashback) Sachio
    What the hell? Who taught
    you that nonsense?
[05:59] Shirato
    One moment, please.
[06:01] Shirato
    Do you want anything?
[06:03] Yuri
    No.
[06:04] Shirato
    I see. Thank you, then.
[06:06] Waiter
    Excuse me.
[06:12] Waiter
    I've brought your meal.
[06:23] Thug
    All our customers are betting on Joe.
[06:27] Thug
    Unfortunately for them, he's going
    down in his first match of the tourney.
[06:31] Thug
    You'll wanna wrap it up in the
    third round, with a minute to go.
[06:34] Thug
    Have him make it look good until then.
[06:39] Fujimaki
    This water's got a hardness of over 600 ppm.
[06:43] Fujimaki
    It goes real well with fish
    that's been boiled in it.
[06:47] Fujimaki
    And the thing about hard water
    is that it makes for great stock.
[06:58] MC
    And now, the fighters will enter the ring!
[07:03] MC
    Out of the east corner,
    the third-ranked IMA fighter,
[07:07] MC
    with Killer Bomb Crew...
[07:10] MC
    Glen "Bloody Lion" Burroughs!
[07:27] MC
    And out of the west corner,
    the fourth-ranked IMA fighter...
[07:31] MC
    With Team Nowhere,
[07:33] MC
    Gearless "Naked Boy" Joe!
[07:47] Crowd
    Hey... is that...?
[07:50] Crowd
    What's going on?
[07:51] Crowd
    You gotta be kidding me!
[07:54] Comm
    We've got an interesting turn here, folks!
[07:58] Comm
    An inconceivable twist for
    the world of Megalo Boxing,
[08:00] Comm
    the man whose ring name has always
     called him "Gearless" Joe...
[08:04] Comm
    is equipped with Gear!
[08:07] Color
    It could be a strategy to cope with the power
    disadvantage he has compared to Burroughs.
[08:11] Comm
    Indeed.
[08:12] Comm
    Plus, it seems that this time,
    Joe will be fighting alone,
[08:15] Comm
    with no one in his corner.
[08:20] Fujimaki
    Looks like you've got him
    trained well, Mr. Nanbu.
[08:27] Nanbu
    I'm not gonna ask you to forgive me.
[08:30] Nanbu
    Hell, I don't even deserve it.
[08:35] Nanbu
    You probably don't even wanna hear my voice...
[08:38] Nanbu
    But I'm counting on you.
[08:40] Nanbu
    It happens in the third round.
[08:43] Nanbu
    You've gotta hold out until then.
[08:46] Glen
    It's such an honor. Putting on that Gear for me...
[08:49] Glen
    You chicken.
[08:51] Glen
    I will smash you into junk,
    together with your sleazy Gear.
[09:00] Shirato
    To think he'd wear Gear
    to the ring, after all this time...
[09:05] Yuri
    Why?
[09:08] Crowd
    Check it out. He's got Gear on.
[09:10] Crowd
    So he's just big talk?
[09:11] Crowd
    Now's not the time to chicken out!
[09:14] Santa
    Sachio!
[09:16] Santa
    What the hell's going on, man?
[09:18] Oicho
    Big Joe's got Gear on,
[09:20] Oicho
    and we couldn't find you or Pops!
[09:22] Bonjiri
    We have no idea what's going on!
[09:25] Santa
    Sachio!
[09:28] Sachio
    I'm done.
[09:33] Oicho
    Sachio?
[09:40] Nanbu
    Don't poke at him too much!
    He's just gonna come after you!
[09:50] Nanbu
    He relies too much on his power,
    so he never steps in deep enough.
[09:53] Nanbu
    Use your legs. Get around him.
[09:59] Nanbu
    I said use those legs! He's gonna
    smash your Gear otherwise!
[10:02] Nanbu
    Damn it!
[10:05] Sachio
    Who cares about "Gearless" Joe?
[10:07] Sachio
    Who cares about going all the way?!
[10:09] Sachio
    It was all just a scam!
[10:17] Nanbu
    Watch it! He's gonna come at you hard now!
[10:27] Comm
    And that's the end of the first round!
[10:30] Comm
    I have to say,
[10:32] Comm
    despite a better showing, Burroughs was
    looking a bit anxious out there.
[10:36] Color
    That's exactly right.
[10:37] Color
    Joe has the boxing sense
    to keep him in the game,
[10:40] Color
    and the strength to turn a
    match around with one hit.
[10:44] Thug 1
    That little shit better not be trying to win.
[10:48] Thug 1
    You sure he's even listening to you?
[10:51] Nanbu
    If Joe was trying to beat him,
[10:53] Nanbu
    he would've nailed him with that uppercut
    he launched after the body blow.
[10:57] Nanbu
    Listening to me isn't the point.
[11:00] Nanbu
    He's doing the job.
[11:04] Nanbu
    I doubt you guys can see that, though.
[11:07] Thug 2
    You better watch that mouth, asshole!
[11:09] Fujimaki
    It's a hell of a performance.
[11:12] Fujimaki
    First he misses on purpose,
[11:14] Fujimaki
    and then, he's only slightly off mark...
[11:17] Fujimaki
    No one will realize he's throwing the match.
[11:21] Fujimaki
    You've been giving him instructions
    to help him avoid getting hurt,
[11:25] Fujimaki
    but he's been defying that,
    and taking punches on purpose.
[11:30] Fujimaki
    A measure of defiance from a stray dog...
[11:33] Fujimaki
    I guess he's telling you he
    doesn't accept your counsel.
[11:45] (Flashback) Joe
    I wanna have a real match
    against you, pure and simple.
[11:50] (Flashback) Joe
    I get the feeling that, against you,
[11:51] (Flashback) Joe
    I can go further than I've ever gone before.
[12:07] Comm
    It's now the second round,
[12:08] Comm
    and Burroughs seems to be
    throwing fewer punches...
[12:12] Color
    He's likely being cautious.
[12:13] Color
    Joe's shown a knack for
    throwing counterpunches.
[12:20] Nanbu
    Don't, Joe! You've gotta
    keep it going past this round!
[12:26] Nanbu
    Do you hear me?!
[12:27] Nanbu
    Just listen to me for once, damn it!
[12:30] Nanbu
    You're not gonna last if you keep this up!
[12:41] Nanbu
    Block, then move to the side!
[12:47] Nanbu
    There you go, that's it!
[12:49] Nanbu
    He can't keep up with you!
[12:52] Nanbu
    Nail him in the body after he
    throws a punch to slow him down,
[12:54] Nanbu
    then send a long hook in over his shoulder!
[13:01] Nanbu
    Hell yeah!
[13:08] Comm
    From the previous rounds, it seems
    that Joe would've put up a good fight
[13:11] Comm
    even without putting any Gear on...
[13:14] Color
    Well, since there's no one acting as his second,
[13:16] Color
    we might be seeing the result of a
    difference in opinion about how he should fight.
[13:21] Fujimaki
    A lot's changed since the underground days, hasn't it?
[13:24] Nanbu
    Burroughs is strong.
[13:26] Nanbu
    He earned that third place ranking.
[13:28] Nanbu
    But Joe... if he fought for real...
[13:31] Fujimaki
    I'm talking about you.
[13:33] Fujimaki
    You're acting like a real trainer.
[13:36] Thug
    Mr. Fujimaki, most of the bets
    are coming in for Joe.
[13:39] Thug
    The odds have gone up again.
[13:41] Fujimaki
    So far, so good.
[13:48] Sachio
    We were supposed to be a team...
[13:50] Sachio
    But in the end, everyone only
    cares about themselves.
[13:57] Sachio
    And that's the same for me!
[14:00] Sachio
    I was just using Joe to get revenge.
[14:06] Sachio
    But...
[14:17] Sachio
    Everyone's only looking out for number one,
[14:20] Sachio
    so why stop now? You're still not done.
[14:23] Sachio
    No metal on your back
    so they call you gearless,
[14:25] Sachio
    right now the way you act sure ain't fearless.
[14:28] Sachio
    You're just playing at fighting, you don't care.
[14:31] Sachio
    Did you really forget?
    We all came from Nowhere.
[14:33] Sachio
    I'm not some kid! My name is Sachio!
[14:36] Sachio
    But for this trip? It's your call where we go.
[14:39] Sachio
    You can't stop now, keep trying.
[14:41] Sachio
    Don't even worry about Nanbu's lying.
[14:44] Sachio
    If you're always gonna look at the past,
[14:47] Sachio
    you might as well grow a pair of eyes on your ass.
[14:49] Sachio
    Wanted us three to go to the top.
[14:52] Sachio
    Don't care about the payback. I chose to stop.
[14:55] Sachio
    Take the title, win a square fight.
[14:57] Sachio
    You gotta get past this... It's only right.
[15:05] Nanbu
    You'll do it with one minute to go.
[15:08] Nanbu
    You did great out there, Joe.
[15:10] Nanbu
    Once this is over, you'll be free.
[15:13] Nanbu
    You won't have to put up
    with this shit anymore.
[15:17] Fujimaki
    You seem to have the
    wrong idea here, Mr. Nanbu.
[15:23] Fujimaki
    You two have done a good job so far...
[15:28] Fujimaki
    And that's impressive.
[15:30] Fujimaki
    But... did you really think
    this would change anything?
[15:34] Fujimaki
    I told you already...
    you can't change your nature.
[15:39] Fujimaki
    A scorpion's a scorpion,
    and a stray dog remains a stray.
[15:42] Fujimaki
    He'll be fighting for the
    rest of his life... in my ring.
[15:48] Nanbu
    No...
[15:53] Shirato
    It's over.
[15:58] Oicho
    Big Joe...
[16:01] Bonjiri
    Look!
[16:08] Sachio
    Don't you dare let it end like this!
[16:12] Nanbu
    Sachio?!
[16:14] Shirato
    The boy!
[16:16] Shirato
    Yuri!
[16:29] Sachio
    Fight for your own sake, Joe!
[16:35] Thug
    It's time.
[16:38] Thug
    Go and get the kid, now.
[16:59] Sachio
    Joe!
[17:01] Ref
    He's down!
[17:03] Count
    One...
[17:04] Sachio
    You're going to the top, aren't you?!
    Isn't that what you've been fighting for?!
[17:07] Sachio
    Don't let it end as a bluff!
[17:09] Kids
    Joe!
[17:12] Security
    We'll bring him in right away.
[17:15] Sachio
    What?! What the hell, man?!
[17:17] Sachio
    Let go of me, you asshole!
[17:26] Yuri
    Did you forget what you told me?
[17:35] Yuri
    Do not disappoint me, Joe!
[17:50] Nanbu
    Get up!
[17:52] Nanbu
    Get on your feet, Joe!
[17:56] Nanbu
    I'm not gonna let them touch Sachio!
[18:00] Nanbu
    Nobody's taking tomorrow away from you!
[18:05] Nanbu
    Get up... get up and fight.
[18:09] Nanbu
    You have a future, Joe!
[18:13] Nanbu
    You've got real skill.
[18:16] Nanbu
    That's a Nanbu Gansaku guarantee!
[18:19] Nanbu
    This ain't a bluff anymore!
[18:23] Count
    Seven...
[18:24] Count
    Eight...
[18:26] Count
    Nine...
[18:36] Joe
    I can't let it end like this, can I?
[18:56] Glen
    Stupid!
[19:03] Joe
    I don't have time to be dancing with a lion!
[19:11] Corner
    Don't rush it! Calm down, Glen!
[19:28] Ref
    He's down!
[19:33] Ref
    With a KO at 2:56 into the Round 3,
[19:37] Ref
    the winner is "Gearless" Joe of Team Nowhere!
[19:42] Commentary
    It was over in an instant...
[19:43] Commentary
    And the goosebumps have yet to subside!
[19:46] Commentary
    "Gearless" Joe's savage
     and beautiful counterpunch
[19:49] Commentary
    sinks Burroughs in the blink of an eye!
[19:53] Sachio
    Joe!
[20:01] Sachio
    Joe!
[20:03] Sachio
    Joe, you're freakin' amazing!
[20:05] Sachio
    Joe!
[20:16] Nanbu
    You done already?
[20:21] Fujimaki
    You picked the wrong man to sting, Mr. Nanbu.
[20:27] Fujimaki
    It's over for you.
[20:35] Comm
    As a result, the final match of Megalonia
[20:38] Comm
    will be Yuri VS Gearless Joe.
[20:43] Comm
    It's bound to be the most unpredictable
    match to ever grace the ring.
[20:49] Shirato
    What happened?
[20:51] Yuri
    For the first time in my life...
    I think I understand what jealousy is like.
[20:58] Yuri
    "Gearless" Joe... he's the real deal.
[21:18] Joe
    Pops!
[21:30] Joe
    You did this?
[21:32] Joe
    You did this to him?!
[21:34] Nanbu
    Give it a rest.
[21:35] Joe
    Pops...
[21:36] Nanbu
    I settled things myself.
[21:39] Nanbu
    There's nothing for you to do.
[21:42] Nanbu
    If you're not satisfied with an eyeball,
[21:46] Nanbu
    then I'm ready to rip out my
    damn heart and fork it over!
[21:55] Fujimaki
    Get them out of my sight.
[21:58] Thug
    M-Mr. Fujimaki...
[22:01] Fujimaki
    The man who wanted to see the kid dance
    in the ring more than anyone else...
[22:07] Fujimaki
    willingly tore out any chance
    he ever had of seeing that happen.
[22:10] Fujimaki
    You think just anybody
    could pull that kind of stunt?
[22:16] Fujimaki
    Hilarious.
SIGN    Round 11
    "A Deadmarch"
    Enough with the gloomy hymns. Gimme something with trumpets.
