SFX: *WHSPR* *WHSPR* TWITCH
Shima: Okay, that's it... I'm done.
'Takeshi' is over.
SFX: BAH
Shima: Honestly I wanted to do a sports manga anyhow.
Somethin' like Slam Dunk.
Handwritten: Huhu...
Gon: Nah, man. You couldn't handle it.
Handwritten: One Piece and Slam Dunk are way out of your league.
Shima: Out of my league, huh? Ok, I see.
Handwritten: I must've been dreaming...
