Ep. 73: Kojiro Takes Sayaka to a Remote Cabin for Intense Training
Marilyn and Paddy-field hog media attention after victory, while Tsukushi coach mourns that Mitsuba College will not defend the cup due to Yawara and Fujiko graduating. Kojiro tells Sayaka they must rely on luck to beat geniuses like Jigoro, taking her to a remote mountain cabin without electricity or heat for rigorous training. Sayaka struggles to keep up. At a celebration, Shinnosuke tells Matsuda he is free of Sayaka temporarily, and Matsuda warns him to hide this from Yawara. Team members discuss post-graduation jobs. Fujiko sees newspaper spreads praising her debut. Kyon-kyon brings employment notices, but Yawara receives none because Jigoro burns them and has plans for her and Fujiko. Coach Yuutenji visits Fujiko’s parents to offer a Saikai scholarship and promises gold in Barcelona. Fujiko’s father calls to share the offer, while Matsuda tries to locate Kojiro’s training spot.
