KENGAN ASHURA

Chairman Nogi suddenly calls low-level employee Kazuo Yamashita into a meeting and gives him an unexpected -- and unwanted -- new assignment.

For his debut kengan match, Ohma calmly faces Yoshitake Real Estate's Lihito, an arrogant fighter with a superhuman vice-like grip.

Ohma thinks he's got the upper hand, but Jun Sekibayashi quickly reminds him: pro-wrestlers are great actors, and they love to put on a show.

Chairman Nogi refuses to enter Ohma into the Annihilation Tournament, but there's another way for him to qualify -- and he'll need Yamashita's help.

Unexpectedly, Ohma is thrown into an all-out brawl. Over 100 fighters are locked in a room, but only five can make it into the tournament finals.

While some try to enjoy their time on the luxury liner, others strategize behind the scenes, with one savvy shogi player pulling a surprising move.

In a tense backroom meeting with all the corporate participants, the tournament brackets are finally decided. Tomorrow, the battles begin.

The Kengan Annihilation Tournament kicks off with great fanfare. First up, jujitsu master Cosmo Imai goes up against American brawler Adam Dudley.

Nentendo's Haruo Kohno combines his monstrous size with surprising speed and agility, but riot cop Seishu Akoya's got a secret plan in place.

In a battle between two storied lineages, Raian of the lethal Kure clan takes on Mokichi Robinson, scion of a legendary 19th century kengan fighter.
