Summary

At the Kamogawa gym, Mari interviews Ippo on his victory against Kojima. She asks if Ippo is proud, and how he feels for winning that way and if Kojima's incredible punch was no joke. He explains that his training has never betrayed him but this time he betrayed it, it was only natural he received a punch like that, Ippo regrets it. Mari says that she is going to visit Kojima and Aoki immediately jumps out and leaves his training to go with her and see him as well. Kamogawa addresses to Yagi the fact that Ippo understood his mistake, adding that he can't wait to see the seeds that are being planted to the young fighter from his training that even the world powers will have to take notice in time, specifically the weapon he's building. Yagi wonders if Kamogawa has done something to Ippo's Dempsey Roll. Mari and Aoki goes to the Soehiro to interview Kojima. Before Mari begins the interview, she and Aoki asks Kojima why he acted antagonistic towards Ippo, learning that he was doing it to psych himself up to try and remove the feelings of his admiration towards Ippo. Starting the interview, Mari asks Kojima how destructive Ippo's power was, however, Kojima claims that he doesn't remember anything besides entering the ring and the end of the match. Mari tells Kojima how it is said that the brain blocks memories of extreme pain or fear due to the shock it does to the body, which means his memories of the match possibly won't be remembered to him. Hearing that, Kojima becomes sad, and believes that it is a fitting punishment for him as he will always be a villain to Ippo.
