It's over---! He won't be able to stand---!
The referee immediately stops the fight---!!

He has successfully defended his world champion title for the third time!!

p2
Round 1 Tokyo Free Man

6
p1
His supporters come flooding into the ring!
azusa: Kya----! Thunder-kun is so cool~~~~ ♥

p2
riki: Whaaaaat's with the "Thunder-kun ♥" thing!
//riki: How about me, I'm Rock 'n' Roll Ricky-kun, Iwamaki Rikitarou!
riki: Anyway, Azusa... Do you really like boxing that much!?
riki: Screaming in a shrill voice like that at your age...

p3
Give me a break already~~~
You just show up at my house whenever you please and drink beer... And you're going to criticize on top of that?

7
p1
Rikitarou, you too should take some lessons from Thunder-kun!
A tight body... A wild expression... Ahhhhh, I can't take it anymore ♥

p2
riki: Keh! I got nothing but a beer belly anyway!
tv: Ehhh... And now, interview with the winner

p3
Champion! It was a splendid third defense of your title! Congratulations!
Haha... Well---... To tell you the truth, there was a round where it got pretty dangerous...
Anyway, could I borrow your mic for moment?

p4
Uh~~~~ Hmm! Hmm!
//Test test test!
What's up, Ooishi---! Are you gonna sing a song for us~~~!?
It's cool, Big Stone Thunder!!
Yo! Sing your heart out!

8
p1
The ten years since I had my pro debut at the age of 17 have flown by...
Back then, it was beyond my wildest dreams to think that I'd defend my world title three times... I was simply ready to try anything
Right now, I am truly happy!

p2
So he's 27!
Same as you!

p3
Yeah yeah...
He's the champion! And I'm just a lowly freeter!

p4
Which means...
I've achieved it all...

9
p1
Starting today---
I will retire

p2

p3/4
So... Something big has just happened...

p4
Wh... Why!? (small): What a waste...

p5
tv: Ooishi... Suddenly retires...
azusa: Wai... Wait a minute, why did you turn it off!?

10
p1
riki: Azusa... Aren't you just frustrated~~~?
riki: You see a good body and go all "Kya! Kya!"
riki: Speaking of which, we haven't done it in a while ♥
azusa: Wha... What!?

p2
riki: Forget about some burned out bastard, how about I service you? ♥
azusa: Wai...

p3
azusa: ---Seriously, stop it!
riki: Gehuh!

p4
Wha... What the hell!? You seriously pushed me away...
You're constantly doing this lately!
Are you cheating on me by any chance?
//Huh?

11
p1
Damn, whatever we talk about, it turns to sex...
Don't you have anything else in your head besides that?

p2
azusa: Anyway... When you see someone from the same generation achieving that much
azusa: Don't you think things like "It's so vexing!" or "I'll do it too!"?
//azusa: Maaan, you're pathetic!
riki: Ah!

p3
Good thing you reminded me! We have practice with the band today!
Huh? Azusa, have you seen my guitar cable?
...
nb: Haa~~~~

p4
Listen... Are you really planning to become a pro, Rikitarou?
It's been looking really questionable lately!

12
p1
riki: Huh? Of course I am! I'm working my ass off!
riki: That's why I'm doing this now, right?
riki: We have a live coming up soon too
azusa: That's tentative... isn't it!?

p2
Besides, you keep leaving your guitar in my place all the time
At least go to the studio once in a while...
Once you get off work, you pretty much do nothing but drink beer every day!

p3
azusa: And what's with that belly!?
azusa: You look like a washed up rock star already
riki: M... My belly's got nothing to do with it!
azusa: It does! It's an expression of your will!

p4
You know... If you ask me, you think that it's okay to remain a freeter like this!
...

13
p1
I will become a pro photographer no matter what! So don't drag me down
We made a promise, didn't we...? That if we don't both reach high, we'd break up...

p2
So let's end it now

p3

p4
I... I get it already...
Dammit, Azusa, you say difficult things so calmly
But I'm an M, so I can't say I hate that ♥

p5
riki: Anyway, let's talk after I get back
azusa: I'm serious you know!
azusa: Besides, it'll be useless for you to come back here! I'm going to a senpai's place now

14
p1
I'm different from you...
I'll do anything to succeed!

p2/3/4

15

16
p1/2
Yeah... Good job today!!
Rock 'n' Rolllllllll!!

p3
Beer tastes awesome after three hours in the studio!
Drums are hell!
Well, can't help it! Trying to make up for all the times we missed in one day!
Ricky-kun, that belly is seriously big!

p4
But Ricky-kun... You were really into it today at the studio!
//It's like you were possessed!
True that! We're young, and we couldn't keep up!
Did something happen?

17
p1
I, Rock 'n' Roll Power aka Iwamaki Rikitarou...
//Am someone who was born for rock, as you can tell from my name...
I've finally turned 27 the other day

p2
27 is that age
Starting with Jimi Hendrix... Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain...
It's the special age when many rock stars died!
//But I haven't even started anything yet...

p3
Our band, Jimi Head's, has been together for a year... We also have a live soon...
So I plan to squeeze out the real juice aiming to be a pro!
tl note: Incidentally, "real juice" is another way of saying "vaginal secretion" in Japanese.
Honestly, it's just that I got spanked by a woman...

18
p1
A p... A pro?
//With Jimi Head's!?
riki: Yeah... I've been with many band up till now, but this trio is the best!
riki: You don't like it?

p2
N... No, it's not that we don't like it... It's just we've never thought about it realistically until now...
Do you have connections...?
riki: Something like that! He doesn't take my calls lately...
//riki: But there’s a guy at a record company I know from back when I came to Tokyo

p3
Err... Then why haven't you debuted until now?
If you've always wanted to be a pro?

p4
Yeah~~~~~.... It's like I didn't want to cash in on the boom, or I couldn't hit it off with the bandmates...
//Really, there are lots of reasons...
Anyway, I hate rushing!

19
p1
Before I become a pro or anything, my way of life is the problem
My parents worked day and night without doing things they wanted, bringing up me and my sister...
//And then both of them died young

p2
Honestly, I have to decline that sort of a life!
//That's why I have no intention of finding a permanent job... I'll do the things I want at my own pace!
How should I say it... I want to dedicate everything to rock!

p3
I want to be a free man!!

20
p1
F...
Free man...?

p2
Well, it's tough. Here in lukewarm Japan.

p3
riki: You can get by doing anything. Such an eaaaaasy country!
Y... Yeah...

p4
If you're a free man, your opportunities are endless...
Pretty advantageous, right?

21
p1
riki: Well, once we have our debut, our free time will disappear and it'll get tough!
//riki: You two should taste freedom too, while you're still in college!
riki: A national tour's gonna be rough!
Y... Yeah...

p2
Oops... (small): It's so late already...

p3
Sorry! I've got a date with my girlfriend tonight...
I have to get going!

p4
riki: Adioooos ♥
Th... Thanks for today~~~...

p5

22
p1
sfx: Bhhho!!!

p2
Hey! A free man? What the hell's a free man...!!?
St... Stop, don't say it...
I... I've been thinking he's weird before, but...
//He's really nuts!

p3
B... But, is he really serious about going pro?
He did say he has connections...
I... It hurts...

p4
Still, isn't that naive!?
All he can do is play the guitar somewhat decently...
Besides, we made a band with Ricky-kun only because we thought it'd be cool to do it with someone older
//Even if he tells us to become pro together...
sfx x2: hahi

23
p1
Shit... I forgot my lighter...

p2
In any case, the fact that he didn't become a pro in ten years means that he wasn't really serious about it, right!?
//If it's not that, then it's just that he has no talent!
It's lack of effort! Or he's just escaping from reality!

p3
In the near future, the society will...
Call Ricky-kun a "good-for-nothing old man"!

p4
Good-for-nothing... old man! It's been a while since I heard that!!
I... It hurts...
//It hurts too much!!
F... From next week, I'll start going to college diligently
//I want to become a successful adult!

24
p1
Uh...

p2

p3
Ri...
Ricky-kun... I just... I mean...

25
p1
Well... All in all, it's just as you said...
Don't worry about it

p2
Shit!!

p3
I knew it already, you didn't have to say it!
Yeah, that's right
//I've been running away until now

26
p1
I've just been lying to myself!

p2
I mean, isn't it true?
If you give it your all, and it doesn't work out...
If you don't achieve anything...

p3
That's really scary!!

p4
If that's how it turns out...
Then what will you have to fall back on in life!?

27
p1
Arghh!
//Shit... What am I worried about this late!?
This time, I will seriously face the challenge, right!?

p2
Rest 4600
Night 7100

p3

p4
When there's an accident while climbing a mountain... If there’s one optimist who'll say "It'll all work out", the team's chances of survival increase drastically...
That's right... In a pinch, a free man must exhibit his characteristic optimism!!

p5
Alright~~~ Times like these call for sex!
Sex will force a change of mood... AND reconciliation!!

28
p1
It's truly two birds with one stone!
Positive thinking, BANZA-...

p2
!

p3

p4
It's a promise, Senpai! Please make sure you introduce me to that person ♥
nb: Uh... Azusa...?
Haha... You're so distrustful~~~

29
p1
azusa: Good~~~ So I'd better start putting my file together ♥
senpai: Should I help you pick the photos? There are rules to compilations so they make the right impression
azusa: Ehhh!? That might help~~~~
senpai: Alright, next week then...
...

p2
Tavern
Choi Waru Club

p3
Uh... Umm, sir...
You've had quite a lot to drink already...

30
p1
Shuddup~~~~
Just bring me more beer~~~~!

p2
He's so annoying~~~
Kyahaha... He's getting drunk by himself!

p3
All of you...
You're all looking down on me...

p4
Shit...
//Shit...
Guuu....
Shit~~~~~!!!

31
p1

p2
First, congratulations on your title defense...
And thank you for your hard work all this time!!

p3
Ah, thanks!
Well, I feel strangely refreshed!

p4
But Champ... One would think you'd be tired today?
You've been chased by the media even to your victory party...
We can put this off to any other time...
ooishi: It's alright. After a fight, I can't fall asleep anyway!
//ooishi: And I don't have to prepare for the next one now

p5
Why, if that's the case, it would be better to go to a place with some cute chicks!
//How about we move somewhere else now?

32
p1
ooishi: What are you talking about! I've been looking forward to simple yet flavorful food from a place like this!
ooishi: Chicks will have to wait until the next time ♥
Ah, I see, I see! You've had to live a life of restraint until now

p2
Then today, help yourself to as much grease as you wish ♥
ooishi: So, what kind of a program is it?
riki: Ugh~~~... My highness will be leaving now~~~~...

p3
Whoa...!
H... Hey...!

p4

33
p1
Hmm... Huuuh?
You're... that champion from today?

p2

p3
Hey hey... Don't you have to apologize first!?
Champ, are you alright!?
riki: It wasn't on purpose, forgive me...
//riki: Hehe...
ooishi: No problem... I'm fine

p4
Uh... Hold on, you...
nb: Lala... la~~~~... Hic
Maaan... That drunken lout!

p5
He's gonna be doing the same thing over and over!
ooishi: Don’t worry about him! Let's continue our discussion

34
p1
Wai... What are you doing~~~!?

p2
riki: It wasn't on purpose...
//riki: Forgive me
Don't mess with me, you damn drunk!
Hey, what's wrong!?
This old dude suddenly started hugging Mika...

p3
Aw-right now, old man!
You've had too much to drink, haven't you~~~!?
//Ahhh?

p4
Let's go outside!
What did I tell you...?

35
p1
How are you gonna take responsibility, old man!?
chick: Get him, Takashi!
riki: What the hell...
//riki: I told you it wasn't on purpose...
What's that, a fight?

p2
You damn pervert!
Gahuh!

p3
You know... I really hate...
Old drunks like you!

p4
Quit calling me old...
I'm still 27!

36
p1
Shit...
What am I doing in a place like this...?

p2
What the hell am I doing...?

p3
Oryaaaaa!

p4
Hey hey...
Damn...
Waiter... You'd better call the police
Y... Yes!

37
p1
ooishi: We can't discuss with all that distraction going on...
Eh? Champ, what are you...
P... Please stop! Even if you've retired, you're still...

p2
Don't worry, I won't touch anyone...
I'll just make them quiet down

p3
Ora!
//Ora!
Hehe...
Gah...
Gahuh...

p4
Why don't you leave it at that?

38
p1
Huh?
Who are you?

p2
Your being noisy out here is annoying
You're troubling everybody!

p3
What'd you say?
You got nothing to do with this...

p4
So get lost!!

39
p1
Ora!
Raa!
Raa!

p2
Wow~~~ You've got a pretty good punch there ♥
!!

p3
Y... You...
Ho... Hold on, Takashi!

p4
Th... This guy might be...
The one they showed on TV, the boxing...

40
p1
Champion...!
Hmm? What... It's over?

p2
Bi... Bi...
Big Stone Thunder!?

p3
I... I'm no match for him...
H... Hey, Kenichi-kun, it's time...

p3
Huuuh!?
You got blood on my sneakers...!!

p4
Y... You bastard~~~...
How much do you think they cost...!?

41
p1
This is bad...
When he loses it, he doesn't see anything around him...

p2
I'll kill you...

p3
You moron...!!
If you hit with that, you'll seriously...

p4
I'll kiiillllll you!!

p5
Uh...

p1
I'm...

Whoaaaa...
You've gotta be kidding!

What an interesting fellow!

47

p2
Shiiit... I'll do it
I'll shine, even if for a second!

p3
Like Janis...
Like Kurt Cobain...
Like Jimi Hen!!

48

49
p1
Ricky-kun...
Isn't coming after all...

p2
Looks that way...
After he heard us talk like that...

p3
We said all kinds of shit about him...
nb: Haa...
But I actually like that silly side of him...

p4
Hey hey, is that true?
!?
I'm the type who gets carried away quickly!

50
p1
Hehe...
//I just wanted to be a little closer to Jimi Hen...
Looks like the perm was a little too tight...
Help me expand it afterward ♥
