Kengan Ashura (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 10 - Todeskampf - full transcript
Akoya has taken the law
into his own hands
and executed people he regards as evil,
calling it the enforcement of justice.
SHUNKA HIYAMA
WAKASA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
He's been doing it all to realize
his ideal world where there's no evil.
His progress was going well.
But the process of fighting evil
has gradually changed him.
He's been trapped...
in the temptation of murder.
Since then, he has asked me
for directions in kengan matches.
You mean you're his brakes?
ADAM DUDLEY
(ELIMINATED)
He bit Imai's thigh off!
Did that rupture the artery?
He's bleeding massively!
Akoya is chewing on his flesh.
Is that to provoke him?
SEISHU AKOYA
WAKASA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
JERRY TYSON
(ELIMINATED)
I think I'm going to throw up.
SAYAKA KATAHARA
You're bleeding severely.
Stem the bleeding.
You are not allowed to die yet.
COSMO IMAI
You must learn with your own body...
what justice is.
DEATH MATCH
AKIRA NISHIHONJI
Calm down, Cos. Don't take the bait.
Cos?
What's wrong with me?
I can't...
stop shaking!
Evil one,
experience it firsthand.
Let justice embrace you and die in fear.
Those who are determined
to become martyr for their faith...
radiate a certain aura.
The terror can sometimes transcend
life and death.
Even risking one's own life
is nothing compared to this terror.
Cosmo Imai, who was caught up in this
unexpectedly, wasn't prepared for this.
Let me tell you...
what justice means.
Wait! I'll surrend--
Stop talking or you'll bite your tongue.
I'm putting pressure on
your intercostal nerves.
The pain is beyond description, isn't it?
Do you understand, Cosmo Imai?
This is the pain of the virtuous people.
It is always the well-doers
who are oppressed throughout history.
The wrongdoers prosper...
and ruin the world.
Incorrigible.
Incorrigible!
Lost consciousness?
You are not allowed to pass out.
There are 12 pairs of ribs.
Now 23 ribs are left.
You should slowly understand...
what justice should be.
Your sins will be purified
with your painful death
and your soul will be righteous.
Now, here goes the second rib.
-Stop it!
-It's terrible.
This isn't a battle anymore,
but a torture!
What's the referee doing?
JUN SEKIBAYASHI
HARUO KOHNO (ELIMINATED)
If the match continues, he'll die!
I'd stop him if I could.
But I can't!
Unless the fighter is clearly
unable to continue the match...
or shows a clear intent to surrender,
I'm not allowed to stop it.
A referee can't make
these decisions lightly...
as long as there are corporations'
reputation and profits on the line.
Hey! Throw the match now!
Or I'll kill you!
It's too late.
No one can stop Akoya now.
If he finds out I forfeited...
Akoya will kill Cosmo Imai.
And until the end of his life,
he will continue slaughtering people.
Calm down, Adam.
Cos hasn't lost this match yet.
Are you nuts?
Imai is going to get killed!
He's risking his life for you!
Don't you have a heart?
I think you got it wrong.
You didn't think I was a good person,
did you?
I pulled a young man with a bright future
into the underworld...
and made him face a deadly crisis.
And you still think I have a good heart?
Mister.
No matter what it takes, I will definitely
become the Kengan Association chairman.
Every ambition comes along
with sacrifices.
So...
shut up now.
He broke the fourth...
or wait, was it the third bone?
Maybe this is it.
I'm sorry, Bro.
It seems I'm going to lose.
I'm sorry, Master.
Another win for me!
Huh?
Am I in my gym?
That means...
You've got a long way to go, Cosmo.
Master?
At this rate,
you're never going to take me down.
MITSUYO KUREISHI
MMA FIGHTER
Master.
Cosmo, do you like fighting?
Well...
It sure sucks to lose,
but it's pretty fun to fight.
Besides, I have a goal
to surpass you one day.
Uh-huh. I see.
Okay. You're never going to beat me.
What are you talking about?
Isn't a master supposed
to motivate his pupil?
Relax.
Let me add one thing.
You're never going to beat me
as long as you stay where you are now.
I'm not your guardian.
Figure out what that means on your own.
You still resist?
Wha...!
Akoya got out of his mount!
He tried to attack my testicles.
Incomprehensible.
I've never seen Cosmo Imai fight this way.
Impudent!
Is his adrenaline decreasing the pain?
But this is incomprehensible.
He came at my punch to grab my arm...
and attempted to break it
without hesitation.
Neither of these are the tactics
of the Cosmo Imai I know.
What has changed in him?
I figured it out, Master.
I had it all wrong.
It's pretty fun to fight.
Besides, I have a goal
to surpass you one day.
It's wrong!
There's no next time if I lose.
A left middle kick!
It got right into his broken ribs!
He's not falling.
Something really has changed...
in him.
I finally got it now.
I don't like fighting, do I?
What I like isn't fighting.
What I like is...
winning!
I see.
You still dare to resist justice.
That leaves your soul
no room for salvation.
I'm going to win. I will!
He's fast!
His reflexes improved?
Inconceivable. His fighting spirit
should have been broken.
What is driving this man?
He evolved at the last moment.
Master.
What is that boy?
Huh? Can't you see?
He's just a genius.
I'm hitting him!
My attacks are hurting him.
He's not a monster. He's a human.
If he's a human, then I can beat him!
Though he lost the contact with Hiyama,
he's still incredibly fast.
What a monster.
I won't kill you right away.
Once you realize the guilt of your sins,
I will beat you to death.
Know what justice--
How impudent!
Absurd!
Your evil tricks are nothing to me.
What?
PYTHON HOLD
Nice one!
He used the damn referee!
Yes! Good! This is the last chance.
Go get him, Cos!
Absurd!
He's not falling?
Akoya's slamming Imai against the wall!
This could kill Imai!
No, not yet!
Imai's not loosening
his sleeper hold at all!
Master, Brother, Adam...
I promise I'll win.
Just wait...
a little longer.
He's off!
Akoya's finally escaped
Imai's sleeper hold.
I will execute justice...
in the name of justice!
I'm not letting you go this time.
Zone!
He still has energy for that?
Absurd!
The pain's coming back.
This is excruciating!
He's delivering blow after blow
to his broken ribs.
We can see the pain on Cosmo's face,
but he's holding on to him.
If I let him go, I will lose.
I won't let him go
even if my arm gets torn off.
Impudent! Impudent!
Now that it has come to this...
I am the King of Stranglers,
Cosmo Imai!
NAOYA OKUBO
RYO HIMURO
SUKIZO URITA
RYO INABA
See, Haruo? Told ya.
He is a genius.
We have a winner!
The winner is Cosmo Imai.
You were strong.
What do you want?
Akoya, I don't think anyone doubts
how strong you are.
You were better than Cos in every way.
In fact, even though you lost,
you only suffered minor damage.
On the other hand, Cos won
and is severely injured.
If you had followed
Miss Hiyama's orders...
if you had tried to win
from the beginning...
if you hadn't been driven
by your killer impulses...
you would have been the winner.
But Cos won.
That's the result and that is everything.
Dude, that's a harsh comment.
I don't hate it though.
Akoya.
Thank you.
Fighting you made me realize
that I'd been misguided.
Fighting is scary.
There is no room for fun
in a real fight.
It's a battlefield
where the slightest inattention
or judgment error can cost you your life.
I had never felt scared to fight
until I fought you.
But...
I want to fight you again.
Let's go, Hiyama.
Akoya.
Not everyone can understand each other.
There are some people
who can only live in their own way.
What do you think is going
to happen to them?
A bright future probably
doesn't await them.
They will continue on
the cycle of killing until they die.
That's it.
A man who's a slave to murder and
a woman who can only cling to him.
Pitiful, isn't it?
I am grateful for him.
Thanks to him,
I feel like I figured something out.
Watch me, Bro.
I'm going to become even stronger.
COSMO IMAI
ADVANCES TO THE THIRD STAGE
It's coming.
Ohma's match is starting soon.
KAZUO YAMASHITA
My entire fortune is at stake.
What if we lose?
If Ohma doesn't win...
I'd lose my job, home, and everything.
Hey.
-There you are.
-Ohma.
I'm up soon. Aren't you going to watch it?
Oh, yeah. It's about time.
What're you doing out here?
Well...
I was lost in thought.
I'm disgusted with myself.
I'm full of myself even though
you're the one who fights.
OHMA TOKITA
FIGHTER YAMASHITA CORPORATION
I hate how small I am.
Kazuo Yamashita.
You are my employer.
Just trust me and be confident.
I will definitely...
You are weak.
I will definitely...
Excuse me, gentlemen.
ERIO KURE
PATRIARCH OF THE KURE FAMILY
Sure.
How may I help you?
Who the hell are--
RAIAN KURE
What's up, shithead?
Mr. Yamashita,
would you care to play a game with me?
A game? With you?
Correct.
The prize is your oldest son,
Kenzo Yamashita's life.
What!
Why would they want your kid?
I have no idea what is going on.
Oh, Mr. Yamashita.
You don't know what your own son's
been doing for the past ten years.
Huh?
Your adversary's company,
Under Mount, Inc., was founded
by Kenzo Yamashita.
KENZO YAMASHITA
What? Kenzo did?
What about Mr. Ohta, the president?
He's just a puppet,
although Ohta is the one who holds
membership with the Kengan Association.
Kenzo brought the company to
what it is today,
without making a public appearance
by using Ohta as a cover.
I believe he had to use
some tough measures.
No way.
But that is none of my concern.
The problem is that the man deceived...
no, that he believes he deceived us.
He underestimates us.
That brat thinks he's the mastermind
and is leading the Kure Family by the nose
and the kengan matches,
where a lot of blood has been shed
for companies' reputation and profits.
He has done enough.
We can no longer stand by and watch.
However,
we undertake any sort of job
as long as they pay adequately.
Hence, we have no objection
to fight for Under Mount, Inc.
That's how seriously we take the contract.
Of course, eliminating our employer
is the last thing we would do.
Then again, the man doesn't have anything
to do with the company on paper.
It won't be a problem to kill him.
However, I am benevolent.
Ohma Tokita.
If you could take Raian down,
I will spare your employer's son.
So, that's the deal.
I don't give a shit
as long as I get to murder, though.
You're lucky, pops.
It's a win-win deal for you, isn't it?
Even if you lose,
you get to dispose of your trash,
the bad debt, for free.
Pretty good deal, don't you think?
T... Trash?
Take it back.
Kenzo, my son, is not trash!
Take it back!
Who are you to call him your son?
You've done nothing for him
for the past ten years.
Just be honest.
I know you also think this way.
"What a piece of trash.
I wish he'd just die soon."
No!
"He's ruining my life."
"That idiot is not my son."
"What a failure did I raise?"
"I can't wait for him to die."
No! You're wrong!
I guess the apple doesn't fall
far from the tree.
You actually wish your own son's death!
No! Stop!
Ohma?
Don't listen to him, Kazuo Yamashita.
You think you're intimidating us?
Is the Kure Family's forte
to talk shit and not to fight?
Your bark is bigger than your bite.
I think that's enough for now.
Save it for the showdown.
Mr. Yamashita, I look forward to
a good match.
PREVIEW
How will Kazuo Yamashita play
the nefarious hostage game?
The Niko Style versus the Kure Family.
The battle begins at last!
Ridiculously strong!
Fight, fight, and fight!
