Ép. 63: Sayuri s'échappe d'une prise tandis que Fujiko utilise ses compétences en ballet pour vaincre ses adversaires

63

Screaming "That hurts! Let me go!" and crying profusively, Sayuri somehow gets out of the first hold only to get into another jam, and Jigoro has to give up the match for her; he also motivates her by telling she has lost weight in the match. The Tsukushi coach is impressed by how Jigoro is able to motivate his students to fight so hard. Oda Mari is qualified because she is not in proper judo attire (earrings and makeup). Fujiko bravely and shakingly goes to her match, to protect the weakling Kyon-kyon, who would surely die if she fights. The Tsukushi team is somewhat intimidated by her height and by her status as "second to Yawara." Fujiko is able to do a ballerina split and turns an ippon against her into a yuko, and her dancer flexibility avoids other effective attacks as well. Executing her signature "un, deux, trois!" ouchi-gari (the only move she knows), Fujiko defeats Kurokawa and struggles against an even larger 2nd rival, Uzaki. Tsukushi's coach is shocked to hear that all the Mitsuba members are 1-month beginners. Fujiko is inspired when she sees Kyon-kyon actually warming up to fight next. (Source: Wikipedia)
