Ep. 41: Yawara Takes a Part-Time Job and Faces Chaos at the Restaurant
Inspired by Komiya’s expensive clothes, Yawara and Itou seek employment but initially encounter high-paying call-girl positions paying 20,000 yen per hour. They eventually secure jobs at a fast food restaurant, where their routine is disrupted by the arrival of Matsuda and Shinnosuke. Sayaka confronts Yawara, leading to a fight that escalates when ruffians intervene, causing widespread disorder. Jigoro arrives to purchase hamburgers and discovers Yawara’s secret job. He forbids her from working further, insisting she prioritize training for the Judo World Cup. Additionally, Jigoro expresses frustration that the World Cup lacks an open-weight division, arguing this contradicts the judo principle that skill should triumph over physical strength.
