Ép. 67: Fujiko fait face à des problèmes de confiance tandis que Sayaka lutte contre des adversaires non judoka

67

As the Tournament begins, Fujiko is having a crisis of confidence in the limelight. Yawara encourages her, but realizes that everyone else is giving her the death stares. Like Kojiro, Jigoro predicts that Sayaka will have a tough time against a "huge obstacle" before meeting Yawara. Sayaka's heiress teammates include "5th degree calligraphers," no judo practitioners, but Sayaka has trouble finishing off 5 opponents by herself in the beginning. Mitsuba College is pitted against Wagadzuma College, and Fujiko is very nervous, though she had "eaten 300 people" for good luck. Wagadzuma's coach encourages his team by telling them that Mitsuba members, other than Yawara, are all white-belts. However, the ever confident Paddy-field wins her first match by yelling "Kenji, you jerk!" and using her trademark deashi barai move. She takes down another opponent with "Katsuya you jerkwad!" but loses the next one. Marilyn's big boobs do not help, and she loses her debut. Sayuri submits her opponent with her weight, but has learned to give up on the next match when she is pinned. Hanazono arrives just in time to give Fujiko her "un deux trois" encouragement, and she wins despite being very nervous. Fujiko finally realizes that she can relax because Yawara is behind her to clean up, and she takes down her next opponent with a new move. (Source: Wikipedia)
