.10th Strike. [Text]

[mean_left_hook]

I never thought of losing, but now that it's happened- the only thing is to do it right.

That's my obligation to all the people who believe in me.

We all have to take defeats in life.

...

I didn't come up with that, Muhammad Ali did.

Sounds good though, doesn't it?

Senpai! You're back!

[mean_left_hook]

And in one piece.

[stupei_iori]

Way to go, Senpai!

I knew you'd beat her.

[mean_left_hook]

I wouldn't count it as a victory just yet.

[prodigal_axe]

So, you're back. In more ways than one..

We're coming to get you.

[mean_left_hook]

No, this is my ghost-

Of course I'm back.

Thank you.

[prodigal_axe]

But there's no time to rest..

She's still got her. So..

[mean_left_hook]

She does?

We don't have any time to waste.

I know where Jeane's hiding with her, I can feel it.

[worldrestorer]

Did he say anything about winning?

[mean_left_hook]

He sure did.

One of my favourites:

Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.

[worldrestorer]

He sounds like a pretty smart guy!

Are you going to follow his advice?

[church_man]

Sounds like you're finally getting somewhere.

Welcome back.

[mean_left_hook]

I've always been a late bloomer.

Thank you.

I never gave up on you. Good to have you back.

We'll be there "ASAP".

Re: {Voice, Japanese}

[mean_left_hook]

I know you didn't.

It means a lot to me, Minato.

[purgatory_maren]

Please don't forget next time..
You're coming home with me and Junpei, aren't you?

Re: {Voice, Japanese}

[mean_left_hook]

...Yeah, I am.
