Coffee will be fine.

Coffee for me too.

Four coffees.

Thank you, sir.

Excuse me, sir.

That's your job, a**hole.

Sorry, sir.

- Shall l?

- Never mind.

You go and buy the cigarettes.

- Yes, sir.

- Get going!

Wait a minute.

Excuse me.

Can I get Marlboros near here?

- There's a machine on the left.

- Thank you.

Hi there, Takagi.

We've begun boxing too.

I see.

Step aside.

Kanayama.

What's up?

- Whatever happened to you?

- I got beaten up.

- Who did it?

- Some odd guy.

- What guy?

- We had a bit of a run-in.

- Where is he now?

- He came with me.

Why the hell did he come with you?

All right, let's get him.

I'm thinking of giving him his debut

in the match before the main event.

- I've thought of a great ring name.

- What's that?

- "A-Bomb Boy."

- That sounds terrible.

- Why? You can be "H-Bomb Boy."

- No, thanks.

- Why not?

- That sounds corny.

Shall we have tea?

How many boys in your class

got into national universities?

None this year.

They can try again next year.

What about your class?

Well, lizuka got into Yokohama.

He worked hard.

The rest got into

private universities.

Our headmaster believes our school

can become prestigious...

but I say "Dream on."

That was good.

Remember how you used your left.

Get it into your head.

Thank you very much.

What the hell is going on?

Things are getting too sticky

on our patch.

The word's getting around.

We're keeping close touch

to find the bastards.

You d*ckheads, move your asses!

- I said move!

- Sorry, sir.

Go out there and find them.

Kazuo.

Cigarettes.

- Keep the change.

- Thank you, sir.

Wait. How's your dad?

He's fine, sir.

- And your mother?

- She's coping somehow.

Excuse me, sir.

Is that right?

Where is it?

I got it.

Kazuo. Come with me.

- Where are they?

- Over there, sir.

Them?

What are you waiting for?

Finish them off.

I said finish them off!

Go on!

Kazuo.

Take this and go to the police.

I've already talked

to the Kyushu boys.

Take some time off.

Still the same weight?

He hasn't lost an ounce.

What's up with him?

Out! Put your coat on and run.

He isn't losing his weight.

I'm afraid he's drinking.

The match is not far ahead.

Shigeta, you keep an eye on him.

I'm sorry, sir.

What are you coming here for anyway?

Do you think people

come here for fun?

If you can't be serious,

you'd better go. I mean it. Get out.

So, are you staying or quitting?

Which is it?

I'll stay.

You'll stay?

- Then do it right.

- Yes, sir.

- Are you sure?

- Yes, sir.

What about you?

Which is it?

Make up your mind.

Takagi, can you teach us the jab?

Sure.

Pull quickly! Pull!

Try it on me.

One kilo more.

Work on it.

Hayashi.

Take it easy.

You're keeping your clothes on?

Don't worry.

I'm keeping fit.

Your weight is stable.

Well, I live like a hermit.

How do you feel, Eagle?

I'm sure he'll make it.

He trained hard. Didn't you?

Good luck.

He won't make it.

Inviting a girl into the locker room!

Not too tight?

Go and pass the check.

Good luck.

Shinji, shall we go now?

Do your warm up.

Easy does it.

You guys go upstairs and watch.

Good luck.

We'll all be watching.

Ready?

I punched blindly and hit him.

That's good.

Hayashi, let's go.

I'll be going now.

- Your gloves?

- Put them on upstairs.

Why don't we go inside too.

Eagle, do your usual.

That's so cool.

Good luck!

What do you think you're doing,

flirting around like that, you idiot?

This excessive weight reduction

lost you your speed.

He's had enough.

Throw in the towel.

If he comes in, step on his foot

as we did in practice. All right?

When things get bad,

use your elbow and head.

Use anything.

Let's go.

Return the gloves yourself.

I'm getting too old for this.

I can't move anymore.

Well, shall we go now?

How can you hope to win

if you smoke all that?

Let's go and watch Eagle.

He'll lose. Let's split.

Come on, let's go.

I want you to supervise

the practice tomorrow.

We'll be off now.

I'm sorry we failed you.

You did every single thing wrong.

You let him step on your foot.

You can't win,

fooling around with a girl like her.

You can forget boxing!

Shigeta, let's go.

Getting flowers like these--

I'm not asking you

for three-figure sums per month.

Just sell your salary's worth.

You guys are thieves.

How can you live with yourselves?

The company will go bankrupt.

But before it does, I'll be fired.

If you're not willing to try,

then go.

There are plenty of other jobs

out there.

Go and eat.

He called us thieves.

I'm leaving.

This is ridiculous.

You should quit too.

You can work as a taxi driver

or something.

We've been a pair

since high school.

Yes, since high school.

Our teachers at school were weird.

Yes, really weird.

At other schools, teachers wear suits

and have wooden swords.

That's usual for gym teachers.

But our teachers wore suits

and had chalk.

What's wrong with that?

- Some wore white and had beakers.

- They were science teachers.

- Some were even worse.

- Worse?

- I never saw them in school.

- That's really bad.

- They worked next door.

- At another school?

Excuse me.

I'd like some water.

Your husband is not naive.

He didn't have to quit with him.

He's so timid.

I was looking forward

to a grandchild.

Lucky you didn't have one.

You wouldn't be able to work now.

That's true.

You did as much as you could.

It just didn't work out.

Nothing is tougher than boxing.

- I wish you luck.

- Thank you very much.

Good-bye, sir.

They're yours.

- Thank you very much.

- Good luck.

He's taking these damn pills!

Shinji, you have a visitor.

It's been a long time.

Training hard?

Yes.

When can you get off?

Not long.

Let's go somewhere

when you're done.

Great.

That was some punch.

The last 30.

Faster.

Sorry, I couldn't help it.

It just happened.

Won't happen again.

Welcome, sir.

Mr. Miyawaki was called

on urgent business.

He wishes you to have

some drinks upstairs.

Come at me, you a**hole.

Masaru.

Oh, Shinji.

Sorry about yesterday.

But today I'm really free.

Something's come up.

I've got to run.

See you around.

Keep it up.

What did the president say?

Nothing special.

We'll meet again...

when you're the champ...

and I'm the boss.

See you.

Manager of the Sendai branch.

- That's a promotion, isn't it?

- Are you serious?

How many men do you think

I had under me?

- Twenty-two.

- I had 23.

If I go to Sendai,

I'll only have five men. Get it?

But you'll be at the top.

You don't really get it, do you?

What they call the Sendai branch

isn't in Sendai City.

It's 30 minutes by car,

in a place called Nigatake.

It's a prefabricated office

by a military base.

You'd eventually be called back

to head office.

Taxi drivers are better off.

You're free to work

or take a break...

whenever you like.

Isn't Mr. Yamamoto a taxi driver now?

Yamamoto?

- You know Yamamoto?

- Not very well.

Yamamoto.

He was in sales for 20 years.

Suddenly transferred to a factory
