The Castle of Takeshi has returned! Reinforced with exuberance and momentum,

filled with new toys and become the palace of your dreams!

WHO WILL EMERGE AS THE MOST DARING WARRIOR?

IT'S NOT THE TIME TO BE AFRAID.

You'll pay for this, you knuckleheads!

See for yourself.

UNTIL THE FINAL PUSH!

Victory is ours!

I feel terrible.

Tear it down!

to get

ONE MILLION YEN

I'll destroy you!

I did it!

Let's go!

You fall until you can't get up.

No matter how hard you struggle, he's got you by the throat.

HE DANCES YOU TO THE BAR

The guest of honor you've all been waiting for.

HE'S HOLDING YOUR HAND

ARMY AGAINST THE TABLE

The Castle of Takeshi!

Takashi Castle (Japan)

In the first world-historical battle in 34 years, 100 warriors

are on a mission to bring down

the three fortresses protecting the castle.

At the first fortress, Ueda Castle, the number of soldiers has been reduced.

THE FIRST FORTRESS - CASTLE WENTA

In the end, they suffered a painful defeat.

Victory is ours! We did it.

THEY FAILED TO DEFEAT THE ARMY OF TAKESI

CHIEF KIMURA DISAPPEARS

In addition, Takeshie's army kidnapped Chief Kimura.

But nothing can dampen the soldiers' fighting spirit.

They're here again, and will attempt to take the second fortress.

THE BATTLES AT THE SECOND FORTRESS

The battles in the second fortress begin with the sound of the shell.

We've called the audience and selected

...the 100 most excellent of the excellent.

At Castle Wenda we learned a lesson.

This time, we're going to involve people with special abilities. Like fighters

of the famous Sasuke, Spartan and professional wrestlers.

What about them?

Meanwhile, Takashi Castle

has been moved closer to the second fortress.

Everyone has been put into battle formation.

THE SECOND CASTLE NAOMI CASTLE

We are at the second fortress.

Forgive us, Princess. We're a little late.

NAOMI WATANABE, MISTRESS OF THE SECOND CASTLE

Come and get it!

-No! Don't! Be careful.

Princess, it's dangerous.

-I took five or six b*ll*ts. Sorry.

Enemy approaching.

-Are they close? Yes.

-There are about 100 warriors. That's right.

-About 100? Not exactly 100? Yes.

We wanted exactly 100, but there's life in the world.

NAOMI CASTLE - SEVEN FORTRESSES

Sometimes something forces him to change his plans.

-That's life. So the numbers fluctuate.

I see.

So we're approached by an army of about 100 warriors.

By the way, I'll have you know that the Count

is absent.

Absent?

-Yes. Oh, my God.

But we are being assisted by a virtual count.

-Shall we say hello to him? Of course.

I'm stepping on it.

What does it say? Why did you testify that the army is "at about" 100 people?

Look...

We'd better be honest.

-They can check if we're telling the truth. Right.

Since it's an AI, it can project more people.

-How? So it's a multifunctional intelligence?

-It can do things. Is there someone you want to meet?

Since we're projected worldwide, I'd like to see a foreign celebrity.

-Hello, Justin Bieber. Don't be silly. It's me, Justin.

-To Bobby Holloway. How's it going?

-No, it's Justin. No, it's Bobby.

-We're not shutting him down? Freak.

-Scary. Bobby's the default role.

-Shall we get started? Yeah, sure.

Can you tell us something?

Listen up, soldiers! I'm gonna gut you!

-Great. What's that face?

You look like a badass hip-hop princess.

Hip-hop princess.

What's that?

It's a...

TO KIMURA WHY DID YOU QUIT YOUR JOB?

Is that possible?

-She left me at "read"? This mouth.

It can't be helped. I have to take the lead.

That voice.

Let's get back to basics.

The crowd went nuts.

Brave fighters, thank you for coming.

-I am your leader, Hayato Tani. Leader!

It's him!

-Mr. Tani. The crowd was chanting "Attack!"

-He hasn't changed. Thank you.

Some explanations for the new fans of Takeshi Castle.

HAYATO TANI - THE CHIEF

He was the legendary leader of the fighters in the original show.

Hayato Tani himself.

He came here today to take over the leadership in Kimura's absence.

The dreaded Count Takeshi is nowhere to be found.

This will help us finally put an end to this 34-year-old feud.

-Look at them. Do your best.

-They're looking strong. Okay?

Our mission is to take Castle Naomi,

in front of Takeshi Castle.

-Do you think they'll make it? It won't be easy.

You'll be put to the test.

I want you to be ready at all times. You got it?

Cheetan.

Give me a little time to introduce myself.

-He says there's a Saske Jr. here. I'm here!

-Saske? Hi, I'm Saske Jr.

There you are.

YUSUKE MORIMOTO TRIUMPHS OVER SASUKE

Morimoto, also known as Sasuke Junior, won twice.

-He's strong. What's your record?

-I fought 15 times. And you won them all?

I won twice.

Since he's the youngest winner of the game,

...he's got the title "Saske Junior." He's always been an active Sasuke player.

His name is Yusuke Morimoto.

The victory is ours!

After the defeat at Castle Ueda,

the army gathered great fighters with Sasuke involvement,

and the Spartan Race, the toughest race on the planet.

With them, professional wrestlers and superb athletes.

All ravenous to avenge the first army.

-A lot of athletes didn't get together? -They're not kidding in this battle.

I want this 34-year gap to be marked

with the fall of Takeshi Castle. Let's do our best!

The first test is the Border Wall.

BORDER WALL DIFFICULTY 15%

CHIROCHUGU OCHU & KOSSEI AWAJI COMEDIANS

-The Kitsune. No one will pass.

What foxes!

Do your best.

-Attack! The original "Attack!"

They're clumsy.

The battle for the second fortress has begun.

Let's go!

TAKERU & SHOGO COMEDY DUO TOKYO HOTEISON

-What gears are these! -Get a move on.

"SPARTAN FIGHTER

-You're first. Thank you.

-I beat Sasuke's champions. Yes, sir.

-I won. Thank you.

SPARTAN RACE TEAM

Everyone on the team was excellent. Well done!

CHIGONPOU KOMIYA & SOUJI AIDA REPORTERS

-How was it? -Cold... No, hot.

SUNSUKE KANEKO POSTAL TEAM FROM FUTSU

The army got over the wall in no time, proving their skills.

CHIROYOSHI USIRO DECATHLETE

I didn't need the rope.

-They're spraying so close? Everyone is determined.

High level athletes and non-athletes alike.

If they're pointing a hose at you, you need more time to get up.

-You've got to take longer to climb.

-The samba guy's down.

THREE MINUTES LEFT

Help them.

Those who are full of energy help the others to climb the wall.

With that kind of momentum, they can all make it.

SASUKE TEAM

It was easier than Sasuke.

SHIHOMI SUEOKA & MITCHIKO SATO SWORDSMAN & SPARTAN COACH

-Easy? -It was easy.

Takeshi's army adds an obstacle to make it harder for them.

DUST ATTACK.

A new weapon that scatters clouds of dust blocks visibility.

Dust attack.

-Aπλοic name. -And you call it stupid.

TWO MINUTES LEFT

What kind of hammering is this?

Fighters don't give up easily.

They use all their strength to get everyone on the wall.

-You did it. It's sapping their energy.

-He wanted it and he got it. He's done.

That's awesome. I'm impressed.

"KAMEZU GROUP OF BEST MOMS

Everybody's happy that their teammates made it.

In the little time left,

some fighters are struggling to join their team.

Oh, boy! What are you gonna do?

KAZUNORI TACTICALLY TWO DAN IN AIKIDO, BUSINESSMAN

Stop it!

-It's getting hard. Aneva... I mean, take him down.

-We should be begging him to fall. Time's running out.

-Brief Dunn? He's on the Ega-Channel staff.

-Okay, Briff Dunn. You got it.

I can just see myself.

10 SECONDS REMAINING

Don't stop!

THE END OF THE FIGHT

They didn't make it.

THEY LEFT TWO

Unfortunately, two fighters are out of the fight.

-Only two? Most of them got through. Unfortunately, not all of them were saved.

-You do judo? Aikido.

I'll take care of them on the way out.

-Have you imagined it? At least five times.

Yes!

Hooray!

The border wall was crossed by 111 fighters.

At the next crossroads, new battles await them.

Soldiers! Time to go to the next fortress.

-Awesome. Princess, how do you like it so far?

-I'm thrilled. Me too.

They are all doing their best.

-But only two have failed?_-Excuse us for that.

-Most people go through this stage. Yes.

-And they help each other. It's a team effort.

Yeah, so if you fail here, I guess nobody likes you.

Like these two?

Meet some of our most promising fighters?

We need to keep an eye on this Saske Jr.

He's awesome.

The Sasuke show is as popular as Takeshi Castle, internationally.

And Sasuke Jr. has become a legend.

-Now he's messing with Takeshi. We're gonna get away with it?

-We can't underestimate him. He's dangerous.

-Let's see what the Count has to say. Okay.

Quite a battle.

I think there were too many winners in that first battle.

But, as you said,

comedians who aren't popular here don't even make it in showbiz.

A comedian's job is to serve people.

The same can be said for businessmen.

Maybe it sounds arrogant,

but in these situations you show who you are.

-Very wise words. We serve people.

Nobody dislikes those two.

-Thank you, see you soon. I look forward to it.

So are we.

-Today Count Takeshi is a nobleman. Yes.

In this episode we have a new game, Complications.

YOU GO ACROSS THE STREET WALKING ON ROTATING OBSTACLES

What kind of game is it?

We needed

an engine from overseas for this game.

-What? It's an engine that doesn't exist.

in Japan, and a special order was placed for the game.

We made it overseas.

There was no other way?

-It's gonna be huge. Probably.

Let's take a look at the game Complications.

The new toy was specially made with giant engines.

Even Chief Tani couldn't have imagined such a thing. How's it going?

Your performance was excellent at the Border Wall.

You did it!

-"You did it," he says. The next battle will be relentless.

The next game is called Complications.

-It's huge. What size is it? We've never seen anything like it.

I don't know the first thing about it.

It was recently built.

-I haven't seen it. Since it's brand-new.

So I don't have much to tell you.

-They seem to enjoy it. But I believe in you.

You're tried and true fighters, and I hope

-that you will win and move on. A lot of women are there.

Is that clear?

COMPLEMENTARY. DIFFICULTY 89%.

It should be interesting.

We are Tokyo Hoteison. We'll be bringing you news from the Complements.

That's the kind of microphone Nobuaki Kakuda has.

TAKERU & SHOGO REPORTER - TOKYO HOTEISON

-All right, Hoteison! Let's go!

YOYO - IDOL CAFE EMPLOYEE

Go! I'm scared!

It's huge.

-How big are they? Huge!

-It looks like a video game. That's because we wanted a special engine.

GO ACROSS, OVER THE ROTATING OBSTACLES.

I'm scared!

-It's impossible. It's too hard.

It's spinning towards you, so you have to have momentum.

-You're right.

You're right. Bad timing.

-Very bad timing. We shouldn't have jumped then.

YOKO FUNAKOS BEST MOMS

-I'm gonna kick a*s! The Sticky Moms.

Not there!

-You'll fall over there. Wrong again.

-You're doing great. It's huge.

It's hard to count from up there.

CHITOSHI KANO JEWELRY DESIGNER

I'm going!

Good luck.

-He designs silver jewelry. Timing is critical.

-The timing... Run!

It's very difficult.

-Hard. Cut off his head.

The fighter has come for revenge.

KENGO EZAKI WILL AVENGE HIS FATHER.

34 years ago, my father lost in the Strait of Gibraltar.

-Your father fought? Really? Yes, that's right.

-I came to take revenge. I've got it.

-That's a great story. Ezaki's father fought.

-in the Castro 34 years ago. They look like twins.

Unfortunately, he was eliminated in the Strait of Gibraltar.

He fell into the net.

He'll be racing in the same festive overcoat

-that his father wore. Amazing.

The Ezaki family is going crazy!

-You got it. Go, Father!

-Be careful. Good.

-Don't be in a hurry... He's still holding on.

-It's complicated. That's the hardest part.

It's not a matter of indecision.

Ezaki, in order to take revenge, faced the test boldly.

He had, however, a disappointing fall, and failed to cross Gibraltar.

-Same with the father, the son.

CHITAN FAIRY SCREW

After the brave battle at Castle Ueda, Chitan comes back for one more round.

CHITAN - FAIRY SCREW (ETERNAL 0 YEARS)

-Good luck, Cheetan.

-Go, Cheetan! No! Get her out.

-It is not safe. Terrible!_-She freaked. Get her out quickly.

We'll save her immediately.

-You can, go on! He had it. Next fighter is...

I guess nobody's gonna win.

NARUMI TAKAHASHI SKATER, COMPETED IN THE OLYMPIC GAMES

Narumi, in the figure skating duet,

represented Japan at the 2014 Olympics.

She goes into battle with friends from the same talent agency by her side.

-Good luck! Make us proud. See you.

-You're right, she's in the swing of things.

After the Olympics, I came to honor the castle with my presence.

-That's the kind of thing Sunshine Ikezaki does.

Attack!

-It's just a drop. Very cool.

-She must have strong legs. Makes sense.

-You got it! Keep your cool. She's good. That's how it's done.

-She's waiting for the right time. Look at that.

-Good. He's got it. Get on!

-That's a b*tch. Crosses don't work.

-It's too hard. It can't be beaten.

-Not even an Olympic athlete can pass. It's impossible.

But she was very calm.

An Olympic athlete can skilfully negotiate obstacles.

But even she struggled to lift her leg and fell.

Takahashi could not win.

I didn't make it...

NARUMI TAKAHASHI - SKATER PARTICIPATED IN THE OLYMPIC GAMES

But how did I do?

-He has a wild look in his eyes. What can I say...

The next group brought the whole g*ng.

-Nice to meet you. They're from the Ega-Channel.

THE STAFF OF EGA-CHANNEL

Biff Dunn II is coming.

from Ega-Channel, the popular YouTube channel.

I'm going to rip. I'm going!

BRIF DAN B - EGA-CHANNEL

You can do it!

Both Biff Dan's used to

to test their skills on their YouTube channel.

Get your foot up. That was close.

Their physical abilities were amazing,

but they couldn't get past the blue plus sign.

Impossible to climb.

And the next ones work as a team.

-What's that? It's a postman's badge.

The five co-workers are close.

-from the Fuchu City Post Office. They're friends.

We're very worried about this guy.

TAKAO UCHIYAMA POSTAL SERVICE TEAM FROM FUCHU

Look at that body! Chubby and flabby.

Turn right and show them.

-He's rubbing his belly. Cut it out, handsome.

-Go! Good luck!

Go, Ucci! Go, Takayo Uchiyama!

-Here comes Uchiyama. He's a big one.

-No, Uchiyama... He's got knee trouble.

-He's in too much of a hurry. He must have a knee problem.

If you lose your balance there, you're finished.

-They're having fun.

You're not capable of anything?

-Drip water. Get in the gutter.

He drank water from the Midoriyama spring.

SHUNSUKE KANEKO POSTAL TEAM FROM FUTSU

-Good luck, Kaneko. Stay calm.

-Let's go! Run.

-Great! He won't make it that way.

No...

Tough game.

-No one gets past the plus sign. It's impossible.

What's the best tactic?

They're right. The biggest challenge in the Complications

is getting past the blue plus sign.

One by one the fighters fail,

unable to find a way to get past the blue plus sign.

What do you think?

Tough sh*t, bro.

You speak good Japanese.

And as the fighters continue the fight, our next hero arrives.

Jordan was watching Takeshi Castle in America.

The surfer hopes to win with the help of his toned legs.

-You got it. You can do it.

JORDAN ORIEN, E-SPORTS EMPLOYEE

-What did he say? I don't understand.

Not like that.

What did you just say! He did it.

He needs power.

-You think he can do it? He's amazing.

He did it!

-He's got it.

-What happened? He didn't make it.

-He fell so, so slowly. He was impressive, though.

He got the symbol of the colonel. Eventually, they figure out how to get past it.

Slowly but surely.

He's still holding on.

-I lost. You came close, though.

Although he didn't complete the test,

Jordan passed the blue plus sign that made it difficult for everyone.

It's an accomplishment to get this far.

-From the blue symbol to the star..._-Other feisty youngsters are taking action.

They've come here to test their amazing physical abilities.

-Look at the stamina. Sasuke's contestants

hope to stand out as the toughest

-at Takeshi Castle. -They're awesome!

Let's go to the first fighter from Sasuke.

In Sasuke we do research and make a plan of action before the test.

But here there is no such possibility and we only have one chance.

So, I'm nervous.

NAOYUKI ARAKI DESIGNER

Naoyuki Araki is a car designer

and has raced Sasuke seven times.

As a designer, I've already envisioned the path to victory.

Araki, we're counting on you!

You've got it.

-Okay. Keep going.

-Car designer? Great jump.

-He's too good. Good job.

-Has he figured out how to do it? He's taking a b*llet.

-Look how it's going. Nerd!

-It's still rolling. You got it.

-Come on, you can do it! He lost time.

-No... It's going.

-He's awesome. He gave it a good try.

-He was persistent. He learned on Sasuke.

-Really? The Sasuke team is doing a good job.

For his wholehearted effort in the test,

Araki will receive the Fighting Award

and will advance to the next level.

The Fighting Award

allows you to advance

-even if you lose. Yes.

MASASHI SNOWKI DIRECTOR OF KITAGAWA ELECTRONICS

Next fighter is...

-If I can do it, surely you can do it. Okay.

Masashi Hioki can show you how things are done at Sasuke.

He's an electrician.

and a father of three. A role model for all the dads in Sasuke.

-Ready? Let's go! Once you succeed once, it gets easier.

-How sweet! His family's here. They always go to his matches.

-Very sweet. It's a big family.

Attack!

-The cheerleaders are screaming. You can do it.

They're soft as a sponge.

Maybe he'll make it.

-He's charismatic and calm. Hioki's awesome.

-He doesn't waste energy. Right.

-Yamada was in a hurry. He's moving. He's got it!

Pass the plus sign immediately.

Now the star has to pass.

-It can! No! Will he make it?

He did it! He's through!

Awesome! He did it.

Well done, Hioki.

-He's a beast. He deserves his reputation.

-Impressive team, Sasuke. They're no ordinary guys.

I did it! I'm having fun.

After passing the hardest part of all without any stress,

he continued to the finish line without losing his temper for a moment.

-Awesome. _-Hyoki, of Team Sasuke,

is officially the first fighter to defeat the Complications.

-I did it! Hooray!

-Good stuff? Awesome!

Congratulations! You did it.

-Very cute. Look at that, it's wiping.

Team Sasuke's successes didn't stop there.

Tada, a civil servant, finished in the fastest time.

He was followed by Sato, president of the Parkour Association of Japan.

Parkourists have it.

From the Sasuke team, Kawaguchi also finished,

-giving them another victory. -Awesome!

Will they keep up the momentum? Let's go to our last player.

I won in Sasuke, and I'm here to win here.

-Here he comes. It's that guy.

The man who won Sasuke twice

is Yusuke Morimoto, also known as Sasuke Jr.

He'll close this one out and maybe bring his team closer to victory.

This is Shinya Sugiyama, and from now on I'll be giving you the report from the field.

-He's dangerous. These obstacles

have sprung up in the castle like something out of a video game.

The two-time champion of Sasuke will attempt to defeat them,

and always an active competitor, Yusuke Morimoto.

Here I go.

You're gonna kick a*s.

His teammates encourage him.

The match has begun for Sasuke Jr., the undefeated champion.

From the circle to the triangle.

-He doesn't get rattled at all. From one peak to the next.

He jumps to the plus sign.

He doesn't strain at all.

He remains calm and moves on to the yellow star.

-He doesn't stop to rest. He's fast.

He finishes in no time, like a superhero.

He crossed the Conclaves in 22.08 seconds.

He didn't even break a sweat.

Will Yusuke Morimoto conquer Takeshi Castle?

A total of six fighters pass through to the next stage.

Team Sasuke has triumphed.

Now that we're on the move, let's go take Naomi Castle.

Five players have passed the test and one has won the Fighting Award.

Tough competition for Sasuke, my princess. What do you think?

It's them, the b*stards.

After Hioki, they went on a winning streak.

Once one succeeds, the others figure out how to move to win.

Looks like they're all having fun.

-I like that. Yeah, everybody's having a good time.

They're happy to be here.

The mailmen were so excited I couldn't understand what they were saying.

The guy was great. I wish I knew how he got so confident.

-He had an energy... He was irrepressible.

The next game is called "Dolls".

COME OUT OF THE HALLWAY DRESSED AS A DOLL

A little birdie told me there might be trouble in the game.

-What problem? What do you mean?

We have a warrior who's a bit of a handful.

-How tough? Terrible. What do you think?

Now let's see how the army that went the other way at the crossroads is doing.

The Dolls were much loved by the public.

YOSHICHI SIMANDA

In the old days, the one who sold dailies at the game was Shimada.

Now who will be our competitor?

And when they say "trouble", what do they mean?

The doll is down.

THE DOLLS ARE 90% DIFFICULTY.

"CHIGONPU KOMIYA & SUJI AIDA COMEDIANS

Let's see what the fighters have to say.

-How does the uniform feel? -It's heavier than I expected.

-It's heavy. How's the heat?

-I'm cold in here. Are you ready for battle?

-You're telling us to get it over with. Looks that way.

-How do you think you're doing? Okay, I guess.

-Who are you with? My friends from cheerleading.

-You guys ready? They're rocks.

FILMED IN AUGUST

You probably want to get this over with.

-The uniforms don't look comfortable. Let's see.

what happens in battle.

-Stay tuned. We're your reporters.

Finally, they're done.

Who will lead the defense team of the Takeshi army?

Who?

Kyoko Hamaguchi.

-Kyoko! Are you ready?

Is she acting crazy or is she really crazy?

Fighting spirit!

Fighting spirit!

Fighting spirit!

-What's he doing? Let's go!

-Does he always do these numbers?_-It seems to me.

FIRST ROUND

The first teams to play

are the former cheerleaders from Ritsumikan University

and the Sticky Moms team. Ten racers in all.

-Here we go. Okay.

You stay on your feet and go across.

You only move when your opponent's back is turned.

The doll...

-dropped. -What beauties they are!

No...

HATTA

-Number 1, you're out. She's the interview girl.

The army has lost a warrior, but continues at a steady pace.

They're closing in.

That's a lot of dolls we got here.

-Let's go. The doll... What's going on?

-It's falling... It's got obstacles.

-You're right. Now I've seen them.

-It fell. No!

-How can you stand there? It moved. You're out!

-Why did he take it off? If the enemy sees you move, you lose.

-The doll... It's a challenging game.

-It must be very difficult. I agree.

-It takes stamina. Drop!

They got their thighs tangled.

.

-No! He's gone. He won't stop for anything.

What a sweetie!

-You can't even get up. Look where he's gone.

The doll fell.

ROCKO MOMS STICKY MOMS

No!

-The doll... What is it? Rubber ba*ls?

HATTA

-She's gone too. She didn't see the obstacle.

She fell!

"NICOS BEST FRIENDS MOMS

-Niko's out too. How many are left?

-The little doll... The obstacles must be too much for them.

-Number two is too close. He's down.

-Good. He did well.

-What's that? Is it stabbing her in the eyes?

-What's going on? Let's see, do I make you laugh?

Cha-cha!

-She's kidding. That's not in the rules.

-The doll... The warriors...

will they withstand Hamaguchi's stare?

He's down!

-He's reaching._ -Will he be able to keep from laughing?

-It's not fair. Don't look at her.

Fujitaka, strangely enough, is resisting.

The doll has fallen!

Victory for doll number two.

After the first victory, three more fighters finish.

ICHUKO & IKO - BEST MOMS

A sure win.

-There's no doubt about it.

With four wins, the fighters were on a roll in this round.

Meanwhile, dark clouds were gathering

-at Takeshi Castle. What's happening at the castle?

Hamaguchi!

Too soft on the army, aren't you?

Step on them!

THE CASTLE'S GONE MAD!

The Castle is angry and will spread panic on the b*ttlefield.

Round two.

Maejima is the manager of our museum.

We also have the samba group Nakamise Barbaros,

who won the last Asakusa samba carnival.

Very sexy!

Will their toned legs give them victory?

The doll...

-Kale, what nice ornaments they have on their heads!

Number 9 and 4, come out.

.

-What? She was very strict. What happened all of a sudden?

-Only the headdress moved. What moved?

On Takeshima's orders, Kyoko is tightening the rules.

Maybe she's going too far.

From now on, the slightest move and you're out of here.

-Really? They fell on me! She's strict.

TARO CHURUMI & NOBUE NASIRO SAMBA TEAM

The doll... fell.

-Number 1, you're out. What kind of strictness is this?

-What's this all of a sudden? Did they move?

SATOMI CHIMNEY CHIMNEY TEAM SAMBA

The warriors are dropping like flies.

because of the unreasonable rules.

NAOKO MINNE TEAM SAMBA

It's strict.

I'm desperate!

And finally, Kyoko gets away with it completely.

What's going on?

-She's samba. She wants to make them dance.

-Samba! No! They're moving.

-Don't move. Don't do it.

He's coming at you!

Samba! You hear that, reporter? Get out!

HATTA

-Is it really happening? Chaos!

-Can a battle be this deaf? Is logic gone?

TAKE KAMIZO TEAM SAMBA

Attempting to shake them with the rhythm,

-Kyoko became careless. She's getting careless.

SECOND ROUND LOST BY ALL

-I like it! Harry to Kyoko,

in this round all the warriors lost.

What were you thinking?

-I couldn't stand not to dance. You couldn't?

Have you no self-discipline?

Kyoko has good rhythm.

AN ARMY PROUD OF ITS ROME

Kyoko didn't stop there.

One by one, the brilliant athletes fell into the traps she set for them.

Go away!

JUNKO TOKUMOTO, AN ATHLETE OF ADVENTURE SPORTS.

HOTAKA YOSHIZAWA WORLD KARATE CHAMPION 2022

RHYTARO AICHARA SPARTAN RACE COMPETITOR

Even Aihara, who crossed the Wall in record time, couldn't escape her.

-We're going to the final round. They'll find each other sticks.

Here's the Wrestling Professionals team.

and the Young CEO team. Ten players in all.

Are they "new" CEOs?

The bull's-eye is down.

-Background. It was obvious. Number 8, you're gone!

As expected.

RIOHEI SAKURAGI CEO RECRUITMENT COMPANY

Goodbye.

Number 5, out!

ETA

She's very strict.

TOMOKI HATANO PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER

You'll get out if they fall on you?

-Does he have to go? What?

-He's trying to hold on. Number 6.

YASUJUKI HATORI CEO IT COMPANY

He can't get out.

HATTA

-No way! It's not going well.

Hold on! It's not fair.

-Too harsh. The doll....

Is the army doomed again?

A man decides to go all out.

...fell.

Something stinks in here. If you're planning something...

I'm not missing anything.

I DON'T KNOW.

-You winked at me. Really?

-You know my weak spot.

-What's that? That's your weakness?

Do you succumb to winking?

-Naturally. Naturally? Look at her.

Hey, what's wrong with us!

-Look at her, she's blushing. Oh, my God!

Do it again?

She's nervous.

-Pull yourself together, Kyoko. Honey!

She's a woman after all.

Look at you, face!

The doll... fell.

Number 7...

-Wait a minute. He sent her a kiss.

It's not working.

-She's a little girl. Only this time.

-What's going on? The samba team's gonna be pissed.

-The flirting trick worked. The little doll...

Time to attack.

...down.

Here we go. The doll... is down.

-It moved. Sure.

-Go! You got it. What's he gonna decide?

Congratulations!

You did it.

-Congratulations? Since it moved.

What's going on?

Clearly, Tsujimura was moving when Kyoko came back.

In the previous rounds, he would have lost.

But he gets special treatment and wins.

I'm outraged, but it was a great round.

-What was that? Congratulations!

-All right, big guy. That look saved your life.

Put the charm aside for now.

Hamaguchi looked very lonely as you approached the finish line.

-I was lonely too. Take it.

7 WARRIORS REMAIN

Along with the prize winners, seven fighters made it.

Finally, it was time to take Naomi Castle.

Princess, what do you think?

-Kiyoko had been derailed. Indeed.

On the one hand, she was absurdly strict.

And on the other hand, she acted like a child.

Are we okay with the way the game is going?

This is what Takeshi Castle looks like.

I see.

-Princess. Yes.

-You've k*lled a few warriors so far. Yes, I have.

We feel bad for the army.

and we want to atone for Kyoko's behavior.

We feel bad, so we're gonna play consolation games.

-You got a problem with that?

No, I don't. The more enemies, the better.

-Right. At this stage.

we need to give them a little help.

Let's see the consolation games.

The fighters who lost in the battles are divided into three groups.

If they win a consolation game, they return to the main battle.

-Yamamoto..._-Singo Yamamoto, from the Complications.

You're competing in "You Can't Get Away With It" at 4:00 p.m.

-You Can't Get Away With It? Yeah.

THE CONSOLATION GAMES

Can't miss the goal?

-I hope you're watching, Egasira. It's Biff Dan I.

BRIF DAN 1 STAFF EGA-CHANNEL

-You got it. Hurry up. At this speed you won't make it.

He's losing time.

There's the ball right there. Maybe he'll catch it.

-It was hopeless. He's gone in on his own.

He was crawling up the ladder.

THE SLIME QUIZ

Another game.

WE'RE THE SAMURAI ROCK ORCHESTRA

I'll avoid the lake and go to battle.

What kind of kiss is a French kiss?

-You got it. Oh, a soft kiss.

Is that the question?

-B, passionate kiss. She walks. I thought they were making out.

-Looks dangerous. Easier to roll, isn't it?

-She's agile. Agile.

-Let's go. No!

CORRECT ANSWER B: PASSIONATE KISS

-The right one was B. Really?

-I thought it was a soft kiss. It was a tough quiz.

RAMEU SENGOKU, FORMER SOCCER PLAYER.

Raimu, a former soccer player, faces a sumo wrestler.

-I don't like this. You got it.

Ready, go!

Victory for Takeshi's army.

She fell into the lake, forming a powerful curve, and her courage

earns her the Fighting Award.

Right, over there.

Go right. Right!

Look at that team spirit!

Go right.

He's got her.

-Too bad. The ball bounced instead of staying in.

-He almost made it. Great effort.

I'm gonna win the Slime Quiz.

MEGUMI TAKAGI SPARTAN RACE RACER

Which word comes from English?

A, Lufa or B, Bamia.

Is it "loofah"? That's dangerous.

-He peed on the middle pole, silly girl. -And he gave the wrong answer.

CORRECT ANSWER B: BAMIA.

Don't they look like they're coming out of a garbage chute?

Yes, that's how they get thrown out at the end.

I will return to the battle at all costs.

TAKAO UCHIYAMA THE POSTMAN WHO DRANK THE LAKE WATER

RETURN TO BATTLE

-Honda! He was so cute!

A professional wrestler can't lose such a simple battle.

-He fell down. He was talking quietly.

and I didn't hear what he was saying the moment he fell into the water.

I WAS WALKING ACROSS THE WATER DOING ACROBATICS.

And the next game was very nice.

It's called the Strait of Gibraltar.

-It's a famous game. Really?

Chitan has become a beast.

Slowly but surely... No!

Slowly but surely... No!

Cheetan!

-Cheetan, are you all right? Thank you, Cheetan!

*OFFiCiAL

In the next one, the Strait of Gibraltar returns.

Will the army survive to reach the final battle?

I pity them.

Also.

Attack! I cheered for the army with all my might,

but we lost many fighters.

I let them down.

Hello, Mr. Tani.

Come here.

Spirit, spirit, spirit, spirit! It's you, isn't it?

THE WARRIORS QUICKLY BECAME FRIENDS

WITH PEOPLE THEY HAD JUST MET

THEY CAME TOGETHER TO HELP EACH OTHER

I don't see it anymore.

It reminds me of so many things! They're all very well made.

-Is it different from before? Actually, it's the same.

COUNCIL WITH THE CHIEF

You have to jump before it straightens out again.

The last one went like this.

-That's the trick. Can you do that?

BETWEEN FIGHTS, REST AND RELAXATION.

You fight in Spartan?

It's the toughest obstacle course in the world.

What's an adventure race?

It's the toughest race in the world.

Others say it's the Spartan.

Both races are tough.

THE FIGHTERS MADE PERFORMACES FOR THEIR FELLOW FIGHTERS

AND SPREAD THEIR COURAGE.

AND THE FIGHTING CONTINUES.

You gave it your all.

I was moved by your passion.

Thank you. The Castle of Takeshi is breaking!

Thank you!
