Summary

The audience is silent as Mashiba is carried out of the ring in a stretcher. Ippo has Kumi follow him to Mashiba's waiting room as they will let her in since she is a family member. Sendō feels as if Mashiba would have won if they didn't knock legs near the end. Sawamura doesn't agree, believing it to be karma, and that purification is what happened to Mashiba, though he admits that the price was steep. In the ring, Mr. Bin is dissatisfied by the audience not applauding the winner. Rosario tells his seconds that he will definitely be coming back to Japan. Sendō begins leaving before noticing Miyata is still sitting down and staring at the ring. Sendō asks if something is wrong, however, Miyata continues to silently stare at the ring.

Outside of the Yokohama Arena, the Kamogawa gym boxers discuss the match. Kimura comments how Mashiba was unconscious just like him. Itagaki wonders if it was karma, however, Takamura disagrees, believing that it was merit, and that the stronger one won in the end. Kimura asks Ippo why he didn't go with Kumi, and Ippo claims that only his family and employer could go in his waiting room. Ippo adds that Mashiba didn't regain consciousness in his waiting room and was escorted to the hospital.

The next day, Ippo leads Taihei and Kintarō with their roadwork as his two students' pro test is coming up. As the group pauses to shadowbox, Ippo thinks how Mashiba and Rosario's match reminded him of the responsibility of being a second. Ippo thinks that knowing a boxer's physical and emotional state is difficult, wondering if he is ready to bear that responsibility. When Ippo goes to the Kamogawa gym, Aoki asks if he has heard anything from Kumi since he heard something from Tomiko. Ippo wonders if something happened to Mashiba.
