Well, Genzo?

We made it just like you told us!

Okay, the ropes and the mat are looking good!

I can't wait!

We get paid for this, right?

I'm all set!

Lots of people are here to participate in the tournament!

With this many people, we'll have more than enough for the tournament.

No, not yet!

There's something missing.

Something...

That's it!

Animals!

"Animal x Event"

We need more animal stuff!

No, you can't put animals into a fighting tournament!

No, it's a must-have!

An absolute must-have!

There he goes again...

Couldn't we get some beastmen to fight, then?

It'd get more people talking.

That's it!

If I can turn beastmen into wrestlers,

I'll be able to touch them all I want during the matches!

You're thinking of something bad, aren't you?

Absolutely not!

But do you know of any beastmen who might participate?

Hmm...

Oh, miss!

Oh, Genzo!

Fancy seeing you here.

You're even more beautiful than ever this morning!

Your lush coat, your beautiful tail...

I'd love to take you away right now...

Oh, you mustn't!

Don't look at me that way...

I can't betray my husband.

Your husband?

Oh, right!

Miss!

I'm on my way to your house right now.

What are you going to do?

Is he going to fight my husband to try and steal me away?

Wait, Genzo!

Miss, I'm on my way to your home right now!

I'm home.

Who are you?

Say something, damn it!

You can't just walk right into my house and...

You're pretty built, huh?

No! Don't fight over me!

"Over me"?

You bastard!

I wondered why she was taking so much time to pick nits out of her fur

and trim her nails!

You stole her from me, you philanderer!

I'm not a philanderer. I'm a wrestler.

What the hell does that mean?

Take this!

Not bad.

I'm not done yet!

Honey... Genzo...

What's this heat in my chest? I remember it so well...

I remember!

I felt this when I was trying to make my way in the world using only my fists.

I lost, huh?

But you can be a good wrestler.

Come fight with me.

I remembered something I'd forgotten, thanks to you.

I'm sorry, honey.

I want to chase that light again.

Honey!

What just happened here?

Bro, it's time to go outside!

You haven't left your room in days!

It's dangerous outside...

That pervert is there.

That pervert is out there!

He's changed.

And it's because of that man!

Ever since he met him, he's been...

Don't worry!

As long as we stay away from his house, he won't come to us!

What are you doing here?

Hey! Fluffball!

What?

Be a pro wrestler!

A pro wrestler?

Pro wrestling is the ultimate martial art!

The ultimate entertainment!

Here, look at this flyer.

Fighting tournament?

You're telling me to fight you?

No!

No! No!

Bro!

Bro's so scared because of him...

Can I be a pro wrestler, too?

Sure.

Genzo, where were you looking when you made that decision?

So Misha and the kobold will be participating!

I'd like a little more...

Will this do?

Don't plant them too deep!

Orcs? Planting flowers!

If it ain't the king!

How've you been?

What are you doing?

We were trying to find something we could do for the town!

We're going green!

Will this work?

Oh, if it isn't the king!

Hey there.

It smells like the mistress!

What are you doing?

Genzo! Shigure!

When did you get back?

Just a little!

Hell no! You freeloader!

You're no better.

Give it back! Give it back, damn it!

Nothing good will come of leaving you home alone.

You're getting in the ring too!

What are the orcs doing here?

No idea.

I see. I never understood what "pro wrestling" was.

But it's a type of quest, I see.

Behold the magic spear Gae Bolg, sealed within a northern cave!

With this new weapon, I will defeat--

Don't you dare!

Things are looking good!

Oops! Somebody dropped their spear!

Okay, I'll explain what pro wrestling is now!

Pro wrestling is the ultimate martial art,

where wrestlers battle it out with all their might in a square ring!

What makes it wonderful is the dynamic combination of skills,

constant action, the friendship between tag partners,

and connection between the fans and the fighters...

Hey, I brought snacks!

Snacks! They look delicious!

It's just our leftovers.

I'll bring more if you want,

but you'll have to pay for those.

Okay, let's fill up our bellies!

but you'll have to pay for those.

Hero... Where could you have gone?

Princess Altena!

There you are!

What is it?

Look at this!

This technique!

How about we put the names of our sponsors on the ring

and the fighters' clothing, and charge a fee?

Okay! We can charge them for better spots for their food stalls, too!

We'll be doing live sparring today, same as the real thing.

All right!

I'll fight you.

I've got more left in me!

Another drink!

I tried to hold back, but...

I won't lose next time!

Hanako, you're strong!

You too! Your stomach looks delicious!

Mistress, if you don't wipe off that sweat you'll catch cold.

Go change, and then give me those clothes!

I'm not satisfied.

There's more to being a wrestler than just fighting.

You need to follow the rules of the sport, and keep it entertaining!

Who cares, as long as the crowd is into it?

No, it's necessary!

Absolutely necessary!

What a pain.

Genzo!

Look at all the food!

I think Shigure set up a stall of her own.

Let's go!

Oh, Genzo!

What's wrong?

You look tired.

I've been busy teaching people how to wrestle,

and getting ready for the tournament...

Take this!

Knowing how to take a hit is part of the sport!

Endure the pain! Enduring the pain is part of the sport!

You didn't train hard enough!

Listen! This is pro wrestling!

I also wrote a script for the announcers...

It reminded me of when I just got started and had to do grunt work...

Sounds rough...

Shigure, are you selling any food?

We only sell merchandise.

I see.

Is it that much of a problem?

You sure do know how to make a buck, though.

I have a lot of freeloaders to take care of, so I need to make some cash.

Genzo! That fried dark tiger meat looks delicious.

You're still going to eat?!

Now!

What have you got with muscles?

I've got just the thing for you...

What wonderful muscles!

This is a limited print run, so there aren't a lot of them.

I can't afford it!

But if I don't buy it I'll regret it!

Bro, I'll defeat that pervert and avenge you, okay?

Go!

Get 'em!

I wanted to fight, too.

You tried to eat the kobold and got kicked out!

The orcs are trying to win with raw power,

while the hunters want to win with technique.

Let's ask our commentator Hanako for her opinion.

Well, orc meat isn't very tasty, with the exception of the shoulder meat!

I recommend just adding a little salt so you can enjoy the natural flavor!

One, two, three!

What was that?

That was an amazing fight, wasn't it Hanako?

Yes, but I hope the next round of fighters will be tastier.

In the red corner, the kobold man!

His passionate blood has revived!

And in the blue corner, Celes XXL!

Back to the lizardman! The match everyone's been waiting for!

The crowd is getting into it.

Word has been spreading since the match started,

and we're selling lots of same-day tickets.

It's a big success!

I'm not satisfied.

We're missing the drama and rivalries that make pro wrestling exciting!

I never understand a word you say...

Even without that, it's very exciting!

No, it's necessary!

Rivalries and drama are an absolute necessity!

Genzo turns into a giant pain whenever animals or

pro wrestling is involved...

One, two, three!

Hey, that was too fast!

Celes XXL wins with a huracanrana!

What do you think?

Kobold muscles have slow reaction times, but they're very tight and juicy!

I recommend the thigh meat! Grind it up and make it into hamburgers!

Now, the sky has begun to darken for some reason,

but it's time for our main event!

Is it time?

In the red corner is Vanstein Carmilla!

Something's missing! Her beauty's going to waste!

Genzo Shibata!

It's the messenger of love and animals, and a total weirdo!

It may look like Beauty and the Beast,

but it's actually the beast and the beast!

So you're a man after all, Genzo!

You made me your tag partner because I'm so attractive.

You were just so unpleasant to deal with

that nobody else would partner with you.

What?

And in the blue corner, Heat Haze!

Mr. Sandbag himself!

Misha! The tomboy catgirl herself!

I'm here for vengeance!

Get 'em, Misha!

Clause, have you taken a liking to pro wrestling?

No, of course not.

I'll go first.

I'm taking back the title of the guild's top fighter, demon beast killer!

Who are you calling the demon beast killer?

Genzo!

Okay, go!

Oops! My leg slipped!

That was an accident! Very clearly an accident!

That was absolutely deliberate!

I have no idea what you're talking about...

What?

Looks like they're fighting among themselves!

Now!

Right!

Hey, hey, hey!

I knew I couldn't avenge him...

One, two...

That's Gang! It's you, Gang!

Bro!

You came!

No, I...

A new combatant is about to enter the ring!

What's your take, Hanako?

A werewolf...

Their meat is chewy and nutritious.

You can use it in a stew, but I prefer it smoked.

On behalf of the event's sponsors, I request a replacement.

A new challenger has entered the ring! Wolfgang the wolfman!

Bro!

Wolfgang! Wolfgang! Wolfgang! Wolfgang!

This excitement!

Is this rivalry and drama?

Some of you may know him...

Yes, this is the man who was hit by Genzo's giant swing, and was easily defeated!

He was traumatized! But today, things are different!

He's overcome his past traumas!

Behold, this is a new dawn for him!

Welcome, fluffball!

Bro, together, we won't lose to anyone!

No, I...

Bring it!

I'm about to rub your fur all over again!

Stop it!

Rub, rub, rub!

No! Stop the match!

E-Everybody's watching!

"Genzo, Carmilla vs Wolfgang von Cratman, Misha" "17 Minutes 26 Seconds" "Furry Cobra Twist"

Cheers...!

Cheers!

Well done, everyone!

Eat up, and drink up!

Genzo, the event was a huge success.

Maybe not that last match...

But since we made so much, we can pay out a lot of fight money!

Yes! We're a step closer to our pet shop!

It kind of makes you feel warm.

So this is what Genzo wants, isn't it?

Shigure...

Yes?

Time to pay out.

What the hell is this?

The bills for repairing all the stalls and buildings wrecked during practice,

all the alcohol Carmilla drank, all the food Hanako ate,

the money to pay the baker for all that bread everyone ate,

the post-game party, the fight money...

It all wiped out every cent I earned from my stall!

We're sorry.

We're back to salty water soup and salted potatoes tomorrow.

Yes ma'am!

The hero has been here for a while.

He's probably formed a powerful party.

He was strong in tag matches too, yeah.

We should try to strengthen our forces to fight him.

Got any ideas?

Yes. Make the demon beasts obey us.

Demon beasts?

Animals, huh?

Next Time: "Princess x Panties."
