Amasaki: "HANAKO, I definitely wanted to win, but I couldn't win, which is really frustrating. But I couldn't lose, so I'm defense. But I'm really frustrated, so I'll definitely do it again.
" HANAKO: "Of course! That belt with Maika and Mina wrapped around me, there's a reason to wrap it around too. There's no way I'll give up! I'm in my second year. There's one more year left. I'll try as much as I can. I'll definitely get this future here!"
Amasaki: "Thank you for today."
Amasaki shakes hands. This time, HANAKO pushes him away.
Amasaki: "HANAKO is a junior of a year and I definitely don't want to lose. But I have another person like that. HANAKO is not the only reason why I couldn't lose today. Hinana will be taking on the next challenge. I finally got excited, and I couldn't win today, but I was able to defend myself, and finally I can finally have a title match with Hinana. The venue is in Tochigi (Utsunomiya), where Hinana is in his hometown of 2/24, and I'm really looking forward to being able to compete with Hinana with the belts of Future. Now, everyone, please come and see Amasaki Mitsuyuki in the Utsunomiya tournament!"
"It's frustrating that we couldn't beat HANAKO in our third defense match. But we defended. Next time, we finally got to finally get to Hina-san, whom I was thinking about. We were in the same unit, and we were competing with this same belt, and we were in a big match in Utsunomiya, Hina-san's hometown. I'm really looking forward to being able to compete against Hina-san with this belt. I'll definitely defend Utsunomiya next time, and make my relationship with Hina-san even more intense."
