Ep. 67: Katsumura's Defeat Sparks Staff Efforts to Help Sawaya Win the Lightweight Title

67

After Japanese boxer Katsumura loses to the world champion, Yamaoka suggests his weight was the issue. Photographer Arakawa admits he lost confidence to propose to Tabata following the loss. Kurita proposes supporting Sawaya, who is competing for the lightweight world championship. When Yamaoka and Sawaya observe his training, they notice his poor fitness stems from a strict diet. Since Sawaya enjoys eating, Kurita and Arakawa urge Yamaoka to find a solution. After dining with Director Koizumi at the French restaurant Maquereau, Yamaoka asks chef Saito to create delicious, high-fiber, low-fat Western vegetable dishes. Sawaya enjoys the mainly vegetarian meal and subsequently wins the championship. Finally, Arakawa proposes to Tabata, who accepts his offer.
