1: Remember what I told you yesterday?
2: That...you were "letting me punch?"
3: Yeah.

110)
1: If you change your footwork timing and suddenly get in the opponent's range,
2: feinting with your shoulder,
3: you can lead them with a jab right in front of their eyes.
4: See?
5(2b): Those who bite the stimulus will fire a punch right back. Go ahead, try.

111)
1: Bend forward and get in your opponent's range to bait them.
2: Punch here. (C'mon)
3: Your lower body is still back, though, so you can easily dodge.
4: And
5: before your opponent's body moves back,
6: you can get 'em.
7: This is just a basic pattern...but the jist is to match them when your weight is forward.
8: That's why you let them punch.

112)
1: If someone's good at matching it means they're also good at making the opponent swing.
2: Yeah...that makes total sense.
3: Izawa-san did that with opponents who had a knife...
4: He's amazing...
*: In Volume 2 and 8
5: Listen to me, Kamishiro.
6: O-okay.
7: To be able to do that with high accuracy...
8: makes a huge difference in fights!!
9: Up against something like that, you're totally helpless both offensively and defensively.

113)
1: And not to mention the fact that your opponent is a kickboxer.
2: Don't expect any surprises like when you fought with me.
3: Your straights won't hit no matter how you sharpen them.
4: What I mean is...
5: Are you prepared to get beaten and lose?!

114)
1: You have one hope.
2: ? ...one hope...?
3(2b): Like I said, you're hopeless offensively and defensively. Which means--
4: you shouldn't do either?
5: Don't attack...or defend?
6(2b): I didn't teach you counter patterns so you could do them. It'd be impossible against an opponent in a street fight.

115)
1: Alright?! Your opponent will most likely match your punches.
2: Utilize that.
3: Uti...lize...
4: Even if you throw out an empty punch and it looks like it'll be matched,
5: do not pull back!!
6: That's exactly where you should step in--
7: and punch even more!!

116)
1: Jump in enough to switch!
2: Ah
3: The place where I'm being matched...
4: A...a double KO?!
5: If you're lucky...it might work a third of the time...
6: You have a very slight chance at victory.

117)
1: But if you get one hit and jump in! It'll be an unthinkable development to your enemy.
2: Then there's no telling what will happen...that's what you have to bet on!
3: Don't attack or defend, aim for a double KO...yeah.
4: I can't beat him out with tactics...which means!
5: It's much better to bet on a way that will allow me to get one good hit!!

118)
1(2b): So that's what he trained me for. Not just to polish my straights...
2: Hm? Wh...what..
3: Yamazaki-san...ummm
4: Uh
5: Huh?
6: Thank you very much!!!
7: Uwahh!!
8: D-don't scream like that all of a sudden!!
9: O-okay, sorry...
10: ...geez.

119)
1(2b): But you know...I don't get it.
2: I don't want to say it, but you've got talent! If you went to a gym for a year, it'd be possible to get up to his level.
3: Why now...and why in a street fight?

120)
1: ...I don't know.
2: Huh?!
3: I...can't explain it well...there may not even be a clear answer...
4: You...need to stop street fighting.
5(2b): You aren't at that level anymore, and besides, what's waiting ahead of you? No, there's nothing.

121)
1: Kamishiro...start boxing!
2: Come to my place!!
3: Don't turn out like Izawa.

122)
1: It's not like I know him, but...he's lost...
2: You need to get out of the city before you turn out the same.
3: ? What? What's wrong?
4: Ah!
5: S-sorry!!
6: I didn't think you'd say such a thing...
7: So overreactive.
8: ...I'm happy...

123)
1: But it's because you talked to me like that, Yamazaki-san...that I was able to move forward...and now
2(2b): No matter what kind of place it is, I've decided that I want to be somewhere where I'm wanted...but I'm really happy!
3: Well do whatever you want. I was just saying.
4: Yes! Thank you very much.
5: Umm...errr
6: What?
7: T-to think there'd be someone...in the same school...a year older than me...who'd give me such advice...
8: I...uhh...
9: What are you trying to say?!

124)
1: Ummmm! Can I call you Yamazaki-senpai...
2: Yamazaki-san?!
3: Huh???
4(2b): Ahh!! I-if I can't, then...it's fine! Sorry!!
5: Just...call me whatever... (what are you talking about)
6: Thank you very much.
7: S-E-N-P-A-I~!
8: Huh?
9: Can I call you senpai too, Yamazaki-senpai <3
10: Yamazaki-sheeeenpaaai <3
11: Nakamuraaaa!!!

125)
1: Y-you guys, I was just training...!
2: It's fine, we were just watching. And you're done now, right?
small: Dahahaha
3: Shin-chan?!
4: Yuu!
5: C'mon, man...
6: I've barely seen you lately. (Always walking home alone...)
7: Ahh!
8: So...
9: Shin-cha...
10: Buh
11: Ahh!!
12: Bwaaaahaha! Are you kidding me? "Senpai?!" Haaaaahaha!!
13: Shin-chan!!!

126)
1(small): Why do you always do that?!
2(small): If I always do it, then why are you so mad?
3: Those two are so childish...(as always...)
4: Seriously...
5: You're the one who's different from always, though, getting so worked up over this training thing.
6: Well...you know...
7(2b): Half of this...is for myself...
8: It's rehab...
9: for my ring-a-phobia...

127)
1: Don't you mean...Kamishiro-a-phobia?
2: Tch! Call it whatever you want.
3: It was a weird ride, but today it's over. I'm coming back to the club.
4: Great work!
5: We're leaving.
6: Let's go home.
7: C'mon, Yuu!
small: What's wrong?
8: Yeah...

128)
1: It's kinda...hard to leave.
2: This time on the roof was special to me.
3: The first time I got a senpai.
4: The words he said to me...
5: I'll remember them time and time again, I bet.
6: Remember the time when I had a place to be, in this spot--
