01x50 - Matoka · Suzuki no chosen!

[bunniefuu]

In the fifth match of the semifinals,

Genkai battled Shishiwakamaru,
of the Uraotogi Team.

Having entrusted the Reikogyoku
to Yusuke, and with only a slight amount

of spiritual power left to herself,
Genkai was forced into a difficult fight.

However, making use of the Reiko kyohan-sho,
a secret measure for tight spots,

she was narrowly able to grasp victory!

And then, Kuwabara,
who had recently returned,

came to fight the enemy captain, Onji.

"Demon Battler Suzuki's Challenge!"

All right! Come at me anytime!

And so, semifinal match number 6,
Kuwabara versus Onji! Begin!

Look what we've found here!

Sweetheart, stick around with us.

Now that we've left the stadium after all
that commotion, we've got some free time.

Why, that's...

Urameshi, isn't it?

This is the chance of a lifetime!

It looks like luck has turned our way!

If we k*ll this guy,
we'll become heroes overnight!

See you in Hell!!

W-Who's there?!

R-Rinku!

Ch-Chu!

Jin and Toya as well!

Pardon our intrusion!

Th-Thank you very much!

This isn't so big a deal
that you need to thank us.

We just happened to be
passing by, that's all.

You big liar! Every day, you've been
bugging us to go cheer for them!

Aw, he's got the happiest
look on his face...

What's the matter?

He's gone and gotten even stronger!

Let's see...

You're right.

Next time we fight, I could be in
trouble, even if I take it seriously.

As if you weren't serious the last time!

Shut up!

Looking at his face while he's asleep,
he looks like just an ordinary kid.

That hurt, Keiko, you lousy...

Y-Yusuke?

Stop forever treating me
like I was a child, would you?

That's great!

This is one couple that's well-matched!

I wouldn't think that Urameshi
b*stard would be so hen-pecked!

Now, please don't go
jumping to any conclusions!

Dammit!

Come on, geezer!

No more mercy! Rei-ken!!

My, my, now you've taken
something dangerous in hand.

What?!

What are you aiming at?

You b*stard!

You're a dense fellow, huh?

Shut up, you!

Jittery little b*stard!

Damn! How come I can't
catch this old geezer?!

I can't very well show Yukina
my good side like this!

Kazuma-san! Stay sharp!

Don't let him play you
for a fool like that, Kazu!

You're going to get
Yukina-chan to dislike you!

Huh? Why would he
be disliked by me?

Oh, it's just that saying that will
make Kuwabara-kun try harder!

This is odd...

Koenma-sama, you haven't
been watching the match,

so what have you been
doing for the past while?

I've been trying to predict
the outcome of this match,

but no matter how many times I try,
I always come up with the Joker.

The Joker?

I've got an uneasy feeling about this...

Not again! Where did you go this time?!

Over here, over here!

Why, you...! If all you do
is scurry around running away,

this won't be much of a fight, you know!

In that case, come and get me!

What?!

I've grown a bit tired of moving around.

All right! You just stay right where
you are! I'll put you to rest right now!

It's no good! This is a trap!

What?

What is this thing?!

Rei-ken!!

To think that he would
fall into the trap on his own!

He truly is a fool.

No, he's a fool and an idiot.

Contestant Kuwabara has become
sealed up inside the black sphere

that Contestant Onji has produced!

Dammit, not again!

This is the true form of the Mantle
of Death that Shishiwakamaru used.

Using fabric loaded with spectral power,
space becomes blocked off,

while inside, an entrance to
a different realm is created.

Though when it comes to me, I don't need
any Item of Darkness to manage this.

Dammit, let me out!
Let me out of here! Hey!

As it were, this was nothing more than the
first act in order to gather enough people

to form the Uraotogi Team.

The Items of Darkness were also
just toys that I created for them,

to suit their various natures.

Since Contestant Kuwabara has disappeared,
Contestant Onji is the winner!

Yukina-san!

I swallowed some snot...

Dammit! You mean I'm back where
I started?! You've gotta be kidding!

I can't be seen by Yukina-san if I'm here!
Just you wait there, you dirty geezer!

So then, who will be next? I have a hunch
it will be Kurama's name that comes up.

If you beat me,
then I won't mind telling you

the secret of the smoke from the Reverse
Treasure Box that Uraurashima used.

Why don't you just
hurry up and roll the die?

MASK

Ba-san, don't you lose!

Ba-san...

You sure talk clearly in your sleep,
the same as ever, huh, Yusuke?

Looks like you're feeling better!

Are you sure you're okay? From the way
you look, you must be pretty tired.

How about you put an end to that grating
old-timer talk and disguise, already?

Disguise?

I don't know who you are,

but if you're trying to take us
off-guard with that old-man getup,

you've got the wrong opponent.

How well you've seen through me.

And here I even changed
the wavelength of my Yoki.

Disguises are a hobby of mine.
Please don't think ill of me.

Very well. It pleases me
to make your acquaintance.

The reason I disguised
myself as an old man

is because the elderly are
the creatures I hate most.

By becoming the thing
which I hate most,

I raise my fighting spirit
even higher, you see.

Old age is ugly. I plan to die
before it happens to me...

while I'm still beautiful.

However, before then,
I will create a legend...

A terrifying myth,
in which I play the main role!

My victory at this tournament will
be the first chapter of this legend.

And all those who bear witness to
this tournament will be my narrators!

I may be late in introducing myself,

but I am a man of a thousand forms
and a thousand techniques,

the beautiful Demon Battler Suzuki!

The beautiful Demon Battler Suzuki!

We heard you without your having to
say it twice, Demon Battler Suzuki-san!

When you say my name, you will not forget
to place the word "beautiful" before it!

"Beautiful" is a word
that was meant for me.

Idiot.

What brazen, ridiculous nonsense!

I'm embarrassed just looking at him.

So he's the Joker, huh?

Then he's the guy?

In a complete turnaround
from when he was Onji,

Contestant Suzuki is dressed in
an unusual... no, a flamboyant outfit!

H-He's dead...

I thought I said to put the word
"beautiful" before my name!

That's it! I can do that!

What's the matter?

Hey! From now on, when you address me,
you will first say the word "pretty."

Got that?

Starting today, I will be "Pretty Koenma"!

"Pretty Koenma"? That sounds stupid.

For someone so fussy about your beauty,

I can't understand why
you would hide your face.

Do you have that little faith
in your looks?

My colossal legend will last forever!

My bare face is not necessary
for this legend.

People fear those whose
appearance is unknown,

and are enchanted by them to
imagine that they look like this or that.

God and the Devil are the greatest
examples of this, are they not?

A hundred years from now,
people will talk like this...

"I'm sure that the most
beautiful, mighty, and fearsome

Demon Battler Suzuki looked like this!"

"No, I think it was like this."

"Oh, no, not at all.
I'm sure it was like this."

Just thinking about it makes
me all thrilled and excited!

He laughs too much.

What does he think is so funny?

My beautiful self will
make this declaration...

The morning after I am victorious,

the first thing I will do
is k*ll all of the elderly!

I will k*ll anyone
who goes against that!

I will grant the right to live
only to those who will follow me!

What are you talking about?!

Who do you think is going to
follow you?! You're dreaming!

That's right, that's right!

Don't be absurd!

I'm quite serious.

Th-That's outrageous, what he just did!

I can't cheer for either one of them now!

Miserable Mad Pierrot.

Have you learned your lesson, now?

Is it okay for me to begin?

Get us started right away!

Okay then, begin!

I'll warn you now,

that Reiko kyohan-sho thing you used on
Shishiwakamaru will not work against me.

That technique requires that both
of your Ki be at the same wavelength,

or you can't use it, right?

However, I am able to change
the wavelength of my Yoki at will.

See?

What do you think?

You can see for yourself. There is no way
that you can draw in my Yoki like this!

Behold, my beautiful finishing move!

Rainbow Cyclone!!

Take this!

Master Genkai!

Suzuki... I mean...

Contestant Beautiful Demon Battler
Suzuki's attack has completely connected!

Contestant Genkai has disappeared
out of bounds. Is she...?

A finishing move with seven-colored
Yoki of differing wavelengths!

Oh, how beautiful! This is my favorite
from among all of my techniques!

Hey, are you listening to me?!

Ringout down! I will begin the count!

My, my, is this over already?

And here I wanted to show off
my other 999 techniques.

5...

Oh, my! Contestant Genkai is still alive!

It appears that she has not
suffered so much as a scratch

from Contestant Beautiful
Demon Battler Suzuki's attack!

Oh, you're pretty tough, huh?

You have quite a comely
nose yourself, don't you?

Wouldn't it be easier to establish
your legend with your face bared?

W-When did she manage to...?

To think that he didn't notice
such an obvious afterimage!

That's just ridiculous.

Kuwabara-kun!

The fool of the Urameshi Team
makes his entrance, huh?

Hey, what happened to my opponent?

You're right. You might be
just perfect for that idiot.

What? What are you talking about?

How long are you going to stand
there frozen before you're happy?

Why, you...! When did you take it?!

It looks like you haven't
had your eyes opened yet.

Like I said before,
I'm no champion of justice.

I will show no mercy
to those whom I dislike!

I won't even need Reiki against
the likes of you. My fists will be plenty!

Inheriting the Reikohado-ken
techniques requires a strong body

in order to be able to endure
the unimaginable pain involved.

Compared to the training
I went through for that,

taking your attacks is as easy as farting.

Why, you old hag! Don't you fool with me!
You just don't know when to die!

In that case, I won't use Yoki either!

Bakuniku kotai!!

I don't care if he won
the last tournament or not,

I can manage Toguro's degree
of technique just like that!

Idiot...

Let me tell you the reason
for your defeat.

The reason for my defeat?!

You are truly gifted when
it comes to creating weapons

suited to the natures of other Yokai.

However, you mistook that
for your own strength.

Your techniques are all just
for show, and are lightweight!

Compared to you, the late
Shishiwakamaru was stronger!

Shut up!!

A-Awesome!

No, he's just too weak.

Oh, no!

I forgot to show deference to
his beautiful face, or whatever.

I... gib... up...

You gib up?

Contestant Beautiful Demon Battler Suzuki
is judged unable to continue fighting.

Contestant Genkai is declared the winner!

Cool!

Most severe.

The finals are coming up!
You've done so well!

You have all been very sharp!

Y-Yukina-san,

there weren't any opponents around
this time tough enough for me to take on,

so I left everything to the others,
but I will be much more active in the finals!

Sure!

The reason you guys won this time is
because you weren't very active, right?

Sis, that's not how it was!

You mean I'm wrong?

Yeah, you're wrong!

No, she's not wrong.

Shut up, pee-wee!

Now, now, now...

I'm going on ahead.

Now then, we'll be expecting
much from you, Kuwabara-kun!

I'm not expecting anything.

Would you cut it out, already?

I have something to talk to
you about. Will you see me later?

Very well...

At last, the Urameshi Team
has won its way into the finals.

However, Captain Yusuke
continues to sleep.

What is it that will be
lying in wait for them?

Even without the younger Toguro,
those guys are incredibly strong!

However, I'm a lot different than I've
ever been before! Right, Genkai Ba-san?

Huh? Ba-san isn't here!
Where the hell has she gone?

Don't tell me this has something
to do with Toguro not being here!

Next time, "Confrontation of Destiny!
The Shadow of Toguro."

Somehow, I've got a
bad feeling about this...
