act.77 Decision ~Decision~

131)
1: Seryaaaahhh
2: osshohh
3: seiih

132)
1: shora!!
2: Eyahhh!!

133)
1: Disempowering your opponent and killing him with a single kick...
2: A magnificent victory.
3: Well, it's a victory I got after getting my ass kicked over and over again, so I don't know if I would exactly call it magnificent, Kazumasa-senpai.
4: You can't keep losing all the time anymore, you know. You're an instructor now.
5: That reminds me, what's your decision?
6: Are you going to sit out...on the next tournament?

134)
1: Yeah, I haven't entered in a while, have I...
2: There are some multi-style tournaments who split entrees up by weight class.
3: And other tournaments allow for grabs. We of the Hakuizumi-kai aren't forbidden from entering multiple tournaments, either.
4: Senpai, I--
5: Alright...forget it.
6: Karate isn't all about tournaments, after all.
7: Guess there's no helping it...
8: At a height of only 165 cm, it'll be hard for Shougo to realize his true potential against current tournament rules...
9: Through them, Shougo has been faced with countless sorrows...however--

135)
1: Now that I think about it, senpai...err, your father, didn't enter too many tournaments either.
2: "If there's even a single rule, it's a sport," he used to say...
3: It's been--
4(2b): 5 years since he passed away, huh...time goes by fast.
5: I know you're trying to act properly as a student of the group your father loved, (where I got my share of ass kickings too, might I add)
6: you should try softening your head!
7: Enough about that! More importantly--
small: you sure?

136)
1: Have you ever seriously
2: fought with a friend, senpai?!
3(2b): Fight? You mean...not practice or sparring...?
4: Yes.
5: Yes.
6: Wh...what did you do...what happened...?

137)
1(2b): Well...I can't say it was all good...we were both wanted to know once and for all...who stood at the top.
2(2b): He always outdid me at the tournaments...but the feeling that in strength, I beat him out was so powerful inside me that I finally found a time where no one else was in the dojo but us two, for us to duke it out.
3: I won...but didn't receive the level of satisfaction I expected.
4: I absolutely thought for sure I'd get it, though.
5: A little bit after that, he quit coming to the dojo...
6(2b): I don't even know for sure now where it was the right thing to do or not. Probably the wrong thing, though.
7: Since I lost a friend as a result.

138)
1: You gonna fight? A friend?
2: I guess guys like us can't just keep sitting when we get in that mood, though, huh?
3: But let me just say this.
4(2b): Be prepared to lose something even if there is nothing to gain. And make sure your opponent is serious about starting a personal fight.
5(2b): If those two conditions are not met, then forget about it at once. Got it?

139)
1: That's impossible, senpai...
2: There's no way he'll agree to it.

140)
1: It's a tragedy, ma'am! Your husband...!!
2: Got caught in a landslide...m...ma'am!!
3: Be strong, Shougo-kun.
4: Dear...
5: Shougo!!
6: Be strong.
7: Mmm!
8: Yes, father. I'm going to become--
9: become strong.
10: That guy's got no reach, so if you keep the distance, he's a cinch!
11: Yeah, what a little squirt!
12(small): Dojo Kiiiing!

141)
1: How many times do I have to say it?! Face and grabs are off limits!!
2: If it's weak, there's no point to it!!
3: This isn't some street fight!!!
4: Somewhere along the way...
5: I may have made a mistake...

142)
1: But--
2: But he and I...!!
3: His ability
4: His mental prowess
5: His strength...and mine...

143)
1: Are we still friends?
2: I think
3: we still are.
4: It returned...!
5: my...

144)
1: Kamishiro...if you're the same kind of human that I am,
2: then
3: the answer I choose is--
4: Heeey, Yuu!
5: Shin-chan!!

145)
1: Seems like Shougo's finally cooled his head! I wanna hang out with him!
2(small): He probably just got lonely...he's got so few friends anyway!
3: S...Shin-chan!
4(small): You'd better not say that to him!
5: Ah!
6(small): Kihihi
7(small): But I will!
8: Kamishiro--
9: Shin, you listen too.

146)
1: Kamishiro.
2: Fight once more with me.
3: A-are you serious...?!
4: Sho...?
5: What the fuck are you saying?! Why do you and Yuu have to fight now all of a sudden?! (It's weird of you to be calling him out now for no reason!)
6: Kamishiro!

147)
1: I...don't want to...
2: Why not!!?
3: A...aren't we...friends...?
4: That's right, Shougo! Seriously, what are you on...
5: I know that.
6: No you don't!!! You have no idea what the fuck you're saying?!?!
7: Yes I do!!
8: Kamishiro should too!
9: If you're the same as me...the same type of human as me...!
10: If you're my friends!!!

148)
1: Then you should understand me...!
2(2b): Please!!! Fight with me once more!!
3: Kamishiro!

149)
1: One week from now, at midnight, I'll be waiting here.
2: I believe in you.
3: That you're the same as me.
4(2b): What the hell is that dumbass talking about!? Yuu! You'd better not go!
5: This is ridiculous!!
