Episode 5 Plot: Joe returns to Gym Nowhere to find it a broken husk. Flashbacks reveal that Nanbu was fighting late-stage cancer while Edison Liu, Yuri's student, requested a match with Joe, who was mostly focused on running the orphanage and being a trainer at the gym. Joe wanted to win the money from the match in hopes of using it to pay for an experimental treatment for Nanbu, and spent several weeks training, but Sachio saw his actions as ignoring Nanbu while his condition got worse. In the present, Joe falls asleep in the broken gym, but wakes up to find an older Sachio attacking him. After seeing his face, Joe lets Sachio pummel him into unconsciousness. Later, Joe finds out from Aragaki that after a typhoon swept through the area over a year ago, Sachio managed to rescue the kids, but the gym was never restored. Everyone either went to an orphanage or took on other jobs. Sachio later asked Aragaki to teach him how to fight, but unlike Joe he didn't have the natural talent for it, though he trained him anyway. Sachio later enters into an underground fighting ring and gets beaten badly, but refuses to talk to Joe as he leaves the arena.
