Ep. 13: Joe and Yuri fight in the finals of Megalonia without Gear, leading to a dramatic conclusion and a time skip.
Aired on June 29, 2018
Joe and Yuri face off in the finals of Megalonia, with Yuri removing his Gear to ensure equal terms. While Yukiko resists military clients wanting to weaponize her Gear, the fight intensifies. Despite surgery recovery draining his stamina, Yuri matches Joe blow-for-blow until he struggles to drink water after 12 rounds. In the 13th round, both bet everything on a final punch. The narrative then jumps one year forward to Nanbu’s new boxing gym, "Gym Nowhere," as the next Megalonia tournament approaches with the title vacant. Yuri is seen in a wheelchair, and Joe visits the gym by bike to deliver packages. The ending confirms that "Gearless" Joe won the championship by K.O. a year ago.
