SFX: hump hump 1: Eheheheheheh... SFX: haa haa
47) HUNT/2 RAPE FREAK
48) 1: Madison Square Garden 1: In the red corner, the NWA champion, Big Johnson! 2: And in the blue corner, Sukiyaki Fujida! 3: Big, be careful of the Paul Harper Attack! 4: Japanese fight dirty!
49) 1: Big moves forward to try and shake hands with his opponent! SFX: bow 2: But Fujida tries to bow instead, like they do in Japan! 3: Oh shit! He's already breaking the rules! 4: That's hot red pepper! This could be trouble! 5: You dirty Jap! 6: Woaaah! Fujida put his hand into his bikini! Is he hiding another dangerous weapon in there? 7: Those Japanese are so rich, they use gold ingots as weapons! 8: Is he trying to get revenge for the atomic bomb?!
50) 1-2: Kill the Jap! 3: Turn off the TV, Turkey. 4: fart 5: Veheheheheh! What's wrong, Hard, doncha like pro wrestling 6: Shut up. 7: Veheheheh! You'll never survive in America if you keep letting little things like that get to you. 8: Japan bashing is par for the course! 9: You should try being South African for a day! I've got it even worse than you! 10: Sorry, but I don't think I have what it takes. I'm not tough enough to eat donuts, talk, and fart all at the same time...
51) 1: Bwefehfehfeh! You're gonna need to figure out how to turn that Japan bashing into a business, just like Sukiyaka Fujida! 2: He's living a pretty rich life, you know? 3: One of the spectators has gotten fed up with Fujida's cruel methods and ran into the ring! 4: Bwehehahahah! Now that's what I'm talkin' about! 5: Get 'im, granny! Get 'im! 6: Time to talk shop, Turkey. 7: H-hey! Wait! It's finally getting good!
52) 1: Japanese people sure love to work. 2: Well, I need to figure out some way to pay that stupidly expensive alimony and Momoko's school fees. I want to hurry up and pay everything off so I can finally quit this shitty job! 3: The guy I want you to nab is Arnie Cunningham. He was taken in for rape and murder, 4: then jumped his $200,000 bail. 5: I can't believe a scrooge like you actually put up $100,000! 6: Uheheheheh! His father's a rich farmer in Utah, 7: but he won't pay for anything unless his son gets involved. 8: Find him within a month, and I'll give you 10% of the bail money. 9: Don't you mean 20%? (C'mon now...)
53) 1: You fucking kidding me?! You want 20% just to nab some kid?! A grade schooler could catch a rotten little worm like him! 2: And come on, his bail was $200,000! 10% alone will let you make a killing on this! Don't get so greedy! 3: If it's that easy, then why don't you just ask another bounty hunter to do it? 4: Tch! Fine. 20%! You Japs really are so greedy! 5: Not as greedy as you... 6: You say something? 7: Uhh... Just excited for my first hunt in a while, that's all! 8: FUCK YOU! These are Arnie's papers. They'll probably make you even more excited! 9: What?!
54) 1: Arnie likes to cut up his victims' bodies and genitals and he fucks 'em. He's one of those sadist types. 2: And apparently, he only ever goes after Japanese or Japanese-Americans. 3: He must really hate those Japanese broads. 4: Well, Hard? You excited now? Veheheheheh! 5: Th... This isn't human!
55) 1: Upper East Side
56) 1: Eheheheheh! Another Japanese bitch! 2: Eheheheh...
57) 1: Ahhh... 2: Aiieeeee! 3: Rape is rampant in the US, so much that the Senate reported that one in every six crimes is the rape of a woman. This is four time the amount of rapes in West Germany, thirteen times that of the UK, and twenty times that of Japan. 4: Rape crimes not only physically and mentally traumatize their victims, but have also contributed to the spread of STDs, including AIDS. -Taken from 'The Psychology of Rape,' an article in the Japanese version of Newsweek
58) 1: This is the fourth victim... Her name's Takahashi Yasuko, a 20-year old foreign exchange student form Japan. He slit her throat end to end before she could even fight back. 2: Hey, if isn't the Jap bounty hunter. 3: Uheheh! Thanks for always grabbing me a bite.
59) 1: But Nick... don't you need to collect evidence from the scene? 2: Hah! Why would I waste time doing that? 3: Waste time? 4: Arnie was raised in a very strict environment. 5: His father was a hard man of the West, someone who had built up a large fortune all by himself. 6: He tried to raise his son to be someone like John Wayne. 7: But instead of riding horses, Arnie preferred to play house... When he was an elementary schooler, he'd get caught peeping on girls and making dirty phone calls. In high school, he became a flasher, and then when he got into college, he committed his first rape. 8: Why does he only go after Japanese girls? 9: All I can say is this... Japanese girls are super easy. All you need to do is go up and talk to them, and they'll spread their legs for anyone... black, white, whatever! 10: Go to the disco on the fifth block of SoHo if you don't believe me. It's flooded with little Japanese girls who are starving for some loving.
60) 1: Japanese girls are all bitches in heat! Uheheheh! 2: Hard, you have a daughter too, don't you? 3: Yeah... 4: Whatever you do, don't raise her into the kinda girl who'll pull down her panties in broad daylight. 5: One of these days, I'm gonna punch you... 6: Sukiyaki Fujida's Mansion
61) 1: Thanks for the warning, 2: but I'm not worried about Momoko one bit. 3: Veheh! One more fifty, and I'll give you my best tip. 4: Apparently, there was a witness to the last killing... Sukiyaki Fujida's daughter, of all people. If you can lure her out, you'll definitely be able to find Arnie.
62) 1: Don't you have any bodyguards? 2: I'm the most hated man in America. Who's gonna come and protect me? 3: They're probably all hoping that Arnie'll get my daughter next. 4: H-he's nothing like the monster I saw on TV... 5: I play a villain in the wrestling world. It's my job to make people hate me. I'm prepared to take any manner of punishment... 6: Just as long as they keep my daughter out of it! 7: I don't want anyone to hurt her!
63) 1: Ever since my wife died 10 years ago, I've been raising Taeko all on my own! She's what I live for! 2: Mr. Fujida... I'll do everything I can to help. 3: Mr. Hado...
64) 1: Eheheheheh... 2: You should be ashamed of yourself! 3: What are you playing pranks on little girls for?! You're a Cunningham man! 4: Guess I'll just have to keep beating some sense into you until you stop chasing girls around!! 5: P-please, Mr. Cunningham! Please stop! 6: He's sorry for what he did... Please, forgive him! 7: Hmph! 8: Are you all right, Arnie? 9: H... Hanako!
65) 1: You're a boy, remember. Boys don't cry. 2: Hanako... 3: What? You wanna hire me?
66) 1: Veheheh! I'm expensive, y'know? Everyone knows Crazy Doyle's name around here! 2: If money's all you want, then you don't need to worry. 3: I'm Arnie Cunningham. 4: Eheheheh... I'm even more famous than you are. 5: Wooow... You have a daughter, Mr. Hado? But you're so young! 6: Heh... Her name's Momoko. 7: Wanna see a photo?
67) 1: She's so cute! 2: Heheh! Really? 3: But she doesn't look like you at all... SFX: urgh 4: Her eyes are blue, and she has blonde hair... 5: Yeah, but after my wife and I divorced, she took her away from me. I only get to see her once a month. 6: Mr. Hado, your coat's ripped. 7: Wha... 8: I'll sew it up for you. 9: What? Y-you don't need to do that... 10: No, no! 11: What? 12: I told myself I wouldn't fall in love so easily anymore!
68) 1: I-I wonder if Taeko has a boyfriend... 2: I-I'm sure she does. She's so pretty, after all... I'm sure she's got at least one. Maybe even two... 3: Huh?! 4: Wh-what?!
69) 1: Uhh... 2: Stupid fucking Jap! 3: Urgh... Y-you're Doyle from the Bronx!
70) 1: W-wait! Wh... What are you planning to do to Taeko?!
71) 1: Lower Manhattan East Side 2: Hi. So we meet again! 3: H-help! L-let me go! 4: P-please let me go home! 5: Heheheh. I will...

73) 1: 17th Precinct 2: Taekooooo! 3: T-Taeko... 4: They really diced her up well... 5: She looked just like a cockroach who got stomped on. 6: Urrrgh....
74) 1: Shut the fuck up, you fat white pig!! 2: Mr. Hard! 3: You son of a bitch! 4: I'm sick of being polite and taking all your shit! 5: We Japanese know how to fight when it really counts, you know! 6: Now get the fuck down off your high horse, you rotten Americunt!
75) 1: Uuu... SFX: piss piss
76) 1-2: Hanako... 3: Ahhh... Mr. Cunningham...
77) 1: Hanakoooo! 2: O-ohh, it's just you, Doyle... What are you doing here so late?
78) 1: I hope you're ready for this, motherfucker!!
79) 1: Grrrr! 2: Diiiie! 3: The fuck I will! 4: Aheeeeeeh!
80) 1: Eheheheh... H-Hanakoooo... 2: You made me drink again, you son of a bitch.
81) 1: What?! You got a boyfriend?! 2: But Momoko... You're only 8 years old! It's Fujida's Paul Harper Attack! 3: Sukiyaki Fujida's begun another merciless counterattack! Don't those money crazy Japanese have even a speck of humanity left?! 4: You know, being a father isn't an easy job, Momoko...https://mangahelpers.com/t/molokidan/releases/41291[English] [Translation] The Hard 1 by molokidan2015-05-10T01:47:40+00:00molokidanadmin@mangahelpers.comTHE HARD

14) 1: A bounty Hunter?! 2: You know about the bail system we have in this country, right? 3: If a suspect pays a fine equal to the severity of their crime while waiting for their court date, they're allowed to go free. There are also bail bond agents who will spot the bill for suspects who don't have enough money. 4: But there are some people who, once they're freed, not only try to skip their court dates, but also welsh on their bills to the bail bond agents. They're called bail jumpers. 5: Bounty hunters are tasked with catching these people. 6: OK, I understand what a bounty hunter is. SFX: rub x2

All they have to do is walk him through the door and he'll already be talking his mouth off. mid line: *DEA = Drug Enforcement Administration 6: Uheheheheh...

I could waste your ass anytime I want! 3: Hah. More like a car thief who only steals cheap cars. 4: What was that?! A car thief?! Boy I oughtta smack you! They put me in charge of a whole fucking chop shop, you know! 5: In chop shops, thieves same multiple versions of the same luxury automobile, then disassemble them and rearrange the parts, while changing things like the seat covers and engine IDs so that the police can't trace them. Currently, this is a large source of income for the Italian mafia. 6: Heheheh! When I was just a little kid, I worked out in the country at an automobile factory in Detroit! 7: I know cars like no one's business! I can take 'em apart, put 'em back together, fix 'em, you name it!
19) 1: If you're so skilled, then why are you working for the mafia? 2: Because of you Japanese, that's why! 3: You motherfuckers keep selling your Japanese cars all over the place, 4: so the factory I worked at stopped making as much and started lettin' niggas go.
