Kids Return Page #2

What do you want?

Want to be ripped off again?

- Are they the guys?

- Yes.

You bastard.

Let's go.

Come on. Get it out.

You must have something.

Jump!

You must have something.

Hurry up.

What are these?

Very rare movie tickets.

Who wants your damn movie tickets?

What's this?

It's a doll.

It's very precious to me.

Precious, huh?

Who cares about this lousy doll?

Here you are.

Thank you.

Sachiko.

Would you like to go

to the movies with me?

Nothing. Forget it.

I'm sorry.

People are getting mugged

by delinquents in back alleys.

Lots of delinquents around recently.

Have you ever been involved

in such a thing?

I took part several times.

- You mugged people?

- No, I got mugged!

You should have fought back.

- That's not very cool, is it?

- No, it isn't.

I know how to cope with it.

It's not cool,

but it's the only way.

Shinji!

Masaru!

He must be a boxer.

I'll get even with him.

Go ahead.

President.

He wants to join too.

Wait for me upstairs.

Young man.

If you want to join the gym,

fill out this form.

This is what he filled out.

What a jerk.

I hope you're off cigarettes

and booze.

Of course I am.

Open your mouth.

Begin.

Don't just stand there.

What do I do?

Would you please show him

how to hit a jab?

All right. Come with me.

First time?

In position.

Hit your jabs.

Quicker.

Again.

And again.

Put your strength in at impact.

Here, hit this once.

Really hard.

With practice,

you'll get the hang of it.

Work on it.

Learning the basics

won't do you any good.

That's for amateurs.

Do it your way.

Go on, try it.

That's it.

- Is the movie still on?

- Yes, it is.

President, it's still on.

The movie should make us

feel young again.

Good idea, President.

I'd like three tickets--

two executive and one regular.

3,600 yen.

- Isn't a student ticket 1 ,000 yen?

- You're an executive.

Yes, and also a student.

- Isn't that right, gentlemen?

- All right, 3,000 yen.

Well, shall we go in?

My wife won't get

much sleep tonight.

Kids today are hopeless.

Remember, there's a time limit.

So skip the difficult questions.

Start with the easy ones.

And once you've done them,

you can cope with the difficult ones.

You're bound to be tense...

and may not be able to finish

all the questions.

Morons. What are they up to now?

- I don't see any famous names.

- Want to go back?

Let's go backstage.

The referee won't see it.

Step in further.

Slowly.

Concentrate.

One, two and off.

That's it.

One, two and off!

One and off after two.

Hit harder. Harder!

You clowns.

So you began boxing?

- So this is where you were lurking?

- You bastard.

- You're picking a fight?

- Break it up.

I said break it up.

Can't you hear?

Go back to practice.

Welcome.

Thanks for the other night.

So we meet again.

Grandpa.

Give them some beer.

No, thank you.

We've begun boxing.

I'm off cigarettes and booze.

I see.

That's good.

Anything will do as long

as you don't become a gangster.

You'll end up like him.

Why don't you sit down?

Kazuo.

Get me some cigarettes.

Marlboros, sir?

You're a quick learner.

Keep the change.

Also stop by my office

and tell my boys to come and eat.

Yes, sir.

So it's boxing, is it?

Look out. They could easily

beat you up.

Don't tease me.

Have one of mine, sir.

No, thanks.

- Are you going on to college?

- No.

- I'm going to work.

- I see.

How does "Dynamite Kid" sound?

- It's cool.

- Isn't it?

There goes the gong!

Dynamite punch!

The destructive dynamite punch!

One! Two!

The Dynamite Kid is amazing.

He's absolutely amazing!

One dynamite punch after another!

And here it comes.

The amazing dynamite blow!

He's really fast.

- How are you doing?

- At my best, sir.

- Doing your road work?

- Yes, sir, every day.

President.

Let me spar with someone.

You're not ready for it yet.

Come on. Let me try.

I practiced enough.

You won't get a partner

at your level.

I'll take him on, sir.

Go ahead.

You'll be asking for it.

He's a smart-ass, that one.

Go on. Teach him what it's about.

Go ahead. Teach me.

Give him a feel of it.

- Your headgear?

- I don't need it.

You won't last a minute.

I'll play with you.

Play with me?

Stop them!

Hurry up!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Let me try again.

Nobody'll take you on.

He'll do it.

Shinji, let's do it.

You clowns can do as you like.

Come on, Shinji. Let's do it.

Let's spar.

Come on.

Do it for real.

I'll do the same.

Okay?

Get ready.

Here goes the gong.

The blue's better

than the red smart-ass.

You think so?

His counterpunches are good.

I told you.

Go ahead and eat this.

What about you?

I'm not very hungry.

Grandpa, cigarettes.

And a bottle of beer.

I thought you were off

smoking and drinking.

I'm back to my old habits.

Your beer.

You can be the Dynamite Kid.

I'll find something else.

Ofcourse you're free

to leave any time.

But just because your friend quit

doesn't mean you have to leave too.

Boxing's not a team sport.

Practice today

and think it over.

Go on. Go and practice.

I think he's got what it takes.

He uses punches

he hasn't been taught.

Let me look at him later.

Your hooks yesterday were good.

Hit that once more.

Higher this time.

Let me show you a trick.

It's the elbow blow.

It's really effective.

It's illegal, though.

Try it.

This is Takagi.

Is Masaru there?

I see.

Will you tell him

that Shinji called?

If this is the equation...

what would be the size of "S"?

Solve it.

Takagi, has Miyawaki quit school?

He was as good as suspended anyway.

You can go ahead and quit too.

Must be lonely without your pal.

You can't bully us anymore.

Damn it, Shinji!

I told you to knock him down.

Wait a minute.

Take care of him.

Wasn't that the elbow blow?

Who taught you that?

You sure got punched all over.

Are you kidding? He wasn't punched.

They were elbow blows.

Elbow blows?

Guard yourself well.

Step on his foot when he comes in.

Wait! Stop!

If you step on his foot...

you can punch him all you want.

If he falls, it looks like a down.

Go on. Step on his foot.

Use it only in the match.

Don't use it during practice.

- So your mate quit?

- Yes.

- You must miss him.

- I do, yes.

If you want to be a boxer...

you must be prepared

to betray anyone-- your friends.

- Drink.

- I can't drink.

Go on!

Shouldn't you lay off

booze and cigarettes?

That's bullshit.

Drink and eat and throw up later.

The tongue remembers the taste.

Listen.

Boxers and fashion models use

the same way to keep their weight down.

Drink.

- That feels good.

- What, eating?

Eating first and losing weight later.

It looks more effective

if you're fat.

So you have a job?

- Yes, salesman at a scale company.

- It sounds a bit shady.

Not at all!

It's completely above board.

I'm glad to hear that.

- So where is he working?

- At a scale company.

That's not bad.

It's quite a decent business.

Is it really?

Welcome.

Are you ready to order?

What will you have?
