第114話: バルセロナでシャカイがフルシチョフを圧倒、ヤワラの不在が懸念される

114

Jigoro takes in the sights and food of Barcelona at the Judo World Championship, but without enthusiasm. Jody questions Matsuda why Yawara didn’t show up and lost by a no-show default. Likewise, the Russians Teleshikova and Khrushchev are upset she’s not there, though Teleshikova believes she’ll have another chance at beating her. Other world-class judokas (Li-China, Gonzalez-Cuba) are upset at her no-show. Sayaka is upset by the Barcelona accommodations and wants to quit the World Championships, but Kojiro orders her to continue as part of her “world judo training,” and that he will coach her until she fights Yawara again. Yawara reveals to Fujiko of her fears that if her newborn is a daughter and learns judo, it might lead to the breakup of their family, and Fujiko finds out that Kojiro is Sayaka’s coach. Sayaka wears a red bullfighter outfit to the Barcelona stadium. She faces Khrushchev, whom she claims she can defeat in 10 seconds. When the match begins, everyone is surprised that Sayaka handles Khrushchev with ease, dominating her for an easy win. Jigoro however claims Kojiro is still only the world’s No. 2 coach behind him.
