Summary
After Kamogawa finds out Yuki is from Hiroshima, she explains she came to Tokyo in hopes of finding the strength to live. When Yuki first came to Tokyo, she saw Kamogawa and Nekota fight, which gave her energy and the courage to survive. She didn't want Kamogawa and Nekota to know she came from Hiroshima because she wants everything to stay the same with the time she has left. Kamogawa then assures her that nothing will change and she can stay as long as she wants. After Kamogawa comes back from roadwork, Yuki wonders where Nekota went to. At dinner, Nekota comes back and hands Yuki a dress as a present. Kamogawa and Yuki wonder how he got the money, Nekota then reveals that he peddles people around Tokyo as a rickshaw driver, though he receives bruises as he falls from it at times. After failed attempts of rickshaw driving, Nekota gets enough money to get Yuki a present. He gives her a dress, not knowing it's the same kind he got her earlier, begins to get terrified as he doesn't remember giving her the first one at all. He then realises his body has been acting unusual ever since he got hit in the face. Nekota and Kamogawa has a spar where Nekota evades all of Kamogawa punches, with Nekota believing that his body is fine. Nekota then drives Yuki around Tokyo in his rickshaw. Nekota and Yuki watch as Anderson defeats another Japanese. After seeing Yuki looking down, Nekota asks her if she wants to see a fight with strength to spare.
