07x12 - Gegege!! The New Crane Hermit School Technique: Taiyōken / Stepping Down

Post by bunniefuu »

The first match of the semi-finals;
Jackie Chun versus Tenshinhan.

As expected, it was a
ferocious and heroic battle.

I can't believe such
an old man exists...!

It would appear a new
generation's era has finally come...

"Yikes! The New Crane
Hermit Style's Taiyouken"

I wish I could watch.

Damn... If only my leg wasn't hurt...

Come in.

This is all I could find...

Thank you!

This is a grueling battle, indeed!

Jackie Chun versus Tenshinhan!

Do Tenshinhan's moves
work on Jackie-san?!

Don't get excited and
stand up or anything, now!

There's no telling at all
how this match will end!

They're both so good...!

Yeah.

It's too bright...

Thanks...

Come on! Come on! Jackie!

k*ll 'im!

You hear me?!

Not again...

Oh no!

Did he fall?!

This is bad!

I win!

I won't lose quite that easily...

Now what?

Jackie is enduring it!

But he has nowhere left to go!

This is where he'll put
his strength into it!

Lunch-san! Lunch-san!

Tenshinhan is attacking
with head-butts!

End of the line!

As strong as you are,

why do you insist on sticking
with the Crane Hermit?

What do you know?!

Insult my master
and I'll make you pay!

And how do you intend to make me pay?

Very well. I'll fight you
seriously for a brief moment.

What?

Are you saying you haven't
been serious this whole time?

He's bluffing!

He knows he's been
fighting for reals!

What's that?

New Crane Hermit Style,
Taiyouken! (Solar att*ck)

It's so bright!

My eyes...! Where is he?!

What the...? What's going on?!

I won't k*ll him.

I can't fight in the next
round if I let him die.

But the old man'll never
regain consciousness!

What an incredible att*ck!

A powerful knee to the head

after blinding him with an
intense blast of light!

Jackie is down!

Now for the count!

One!

Two!

Three!

Four!

What was that?!

Five!

Old man!

Six!

Seven!

Eight!

Nine!

I can start to see again...

Yeah...

Impossible!

I really felt that!

Can't you treat older people
with a little more respect?!

He's up! Jackie's back on his feet!

He's certainly not
your ordinary old man!

Sounds like he's still in it...

He certainly is resilient...

But the old guy's all shaky...

Hang in there!
You won last time, you know!

Oh! He's...

Who the hell are you?!

Why do you refuse to use
such techniques for good?

Why do you follow the path of evil?

Your techniques are being wasted.

Break your ties
with the Crane Hermit!

What?!

Break free from the
easy path of darkness!

Try entering the world of light!

I've had enough of your crap!

I'll shut that loud mouth of yours up!

The way he handles himself...

I've seen it somewhere before...

What's the matter?

Run out of techniques, have you?

Do you feel lost now?

What? Are you still talking like that?!

I'm not saying anything
particularly grand.

I'm simply saying that living
a simple and happy life

makes this world the most fun.

Hey, when it was so bright
that we couldn't see anything,

how did that judge guy
know what was going on?

What are you talking
about a time like this?

He was lucky because
he had sunglasses on.

You mean those colored glasses?

Do they make it not bright?

Well? Don't you agree, young one?

Or do you prefer a life
like the Crane Hermit's,

where everyone hates you?!

He couldn't be!

Here goes...

Hey! Look behind you!

There's a gorgeous girl
calling for you!

Where?!

Aha! I knew it!

Ten! That old man's the Turtle Hermit!

He's the Turtle Hermit in disguise!


Oh, really?

Looks like the truth's out.

But keep this a secret from everyone.

Just so you know,
I wasn't saying all that

because I'm on bad terms
with the Crane Hermit.

I felt that you and your
techniques were going to waste.

Stop trying to make excuses!

What are they saying?

It's too noisy to hear.

You're boring me with
your needless talking!

In return, I'll show you
something interesting.

Would it happen to be a dirty book?

Why would I show you that?!

Now what?

Another terrifying technique?

Shut up.

Kame...

The Kamehameha?!

...hame...

He can't be!

...ha!

It's huge!

People in the crowd are going to die!

That was scary...!

That was close...!

What a shock!

Tenshinhan of the Crane Hermit School

fired off the Turtle Hermit
School's Kamehameha!

Amazing!

Incredible! That was a
pretty huge one, too!

I can use techniques of that
quality after seeing them only once.

Show me all sorts of other techniques!

I'll get stronger and stronger!

I had no idea you were this skilled...

I commend you!

Come at me!

I'm so delighted! I'm thrilled!

Walk the path of light
and become someone great!

Are you still stuck on that?!

I looked forward to the day when
such young lads would appear!

What's he doing?!

A new move, maybe?

Would you look at this?!

Jackie has turned his
back to his opponent!

What kind of amazing technique
is he going to show us?!

Now I can live in relaxation again!

No way...!

No way...!

He can't be serious...!

Ring out! Tenshinhan wins!

What?!

Hey!

What the hell's goin' on?!

I'm sorry!

Why?!

Why did you lose on purpose?!

He didn't like the idea of
openly losing to you, that's all!

Ten! You're many times more
skilled than the Turtle Hermit!

No! He hadn't used
his full strength yet!

Old man!

Why did you...

You two are up next.

Oh, yeah! My next opponent is Goku!

Really?

Now to see what kind of era is coming.

Tenshinhan has won because of
Jackie's unexpected actions.

Will Tenshinhan's challenger
be Goku or Kuririn?
