The God Of High School Ep 5 Rounde/Hound is out and we will break it down. Since this is a breakdown there will be spoilers. If you do not want to be spoiled then please stop now and go check out the episode over at Crunchyroll.com. AGAIN SPOILERS AHEAD.
To recap Han and Jin stopped Mira from getting married to Sengon a big martial arts super star who was actual evil. The thing is even though they stopped that together Han friend condition took a turn for the worse. A turn that changed are gentle giant. A change that he showed by taking out Mira by hitting her injury and taken her out of the competition. Doing so upsets Jin sense of honor and also makes Han sick to his stomach.
Remember Han we have seen is honorable we saw that in his match when even though he was going to take a direct hit he did so to help his opponent up. But out of are 3 protagonist he is the only one fighting for a life. With that life not getting worse he has to take this more serious and in a way become more merciless. As such he is torn with what he must do.
Jin too now seeing Han fight this way take things serious as he faces his next match. It was kind of skipped here as Byun Jae-Hee fight shows the the flaw in Jin triple kick. A flaw that Jin shows isn’t a problem as then he goes right into Dragon Sign Hwechook or true round kick. The anime basically showing the same point in that Jin has more moves in his arsenal.
Jin then goes to see Mira who thanks to Nano tech is fine and recovering. She is taking it well saying it was her fault for not taking care of the injury instead of ignoring it thinking it didn’t count for her to have the nurses heal.
But it is here Mira telling Jin do not fight Han angry as then you will lose. To Jin he can’t get over how Han won. Mira says he cannot think like that. They have no idea what made him change. Remember he never told them why he was fighting in the tournament.
For Han time is running out which mean things have to change. Basically the line is he goes to Mujin and ask for his friend to get treated now. The catch is he is only supposed to get that if he wins the tournament. Mujin says yes but he has to win. Now the treatment has started but to keep it going. Han has to win it all. The thing he has to get through Jin and Mujin is hoping this fight makes Jin reveal his true power against Han. What we get though is one great fight.
Now this is a fight that looks even but it isn’t completely. Jin is slightly faster than Han. Han can take more and is stronger. This makes up for a nice fight between them. But Jin is out to make Han pay for Mira while Han is trying to win as for his friend sake. This has both of them acting differently then what we have come to know them to act.
As Mira is leaving the hospital we learn that Han friend didn’t make it. Keep in mind this is what he is fighting for this why he is been so ruthless. The only thing Mujin then decides to tell him his friend had past. Now we don’t know if the nano machines would be able to save him had they started earlier but the point of this is that Han had just been told by the head of the comity that what you are fighting for is no more.
As you can expect this has Han dealing with regret for what he did to Mira and Jin more then happy to let him have it not knowing the situation. Han just takes the beating for the most part as this is what he must do. It is what he deserves. That is until Mira comes with a microphone to let him have it.
She basically bring him a letter saying his friend asked her to give it to him. Mind you he was dead so she just brought it to Han. Now as Han is reading this he sees what his friend wanted and that he knew he was not going to make it. His words to Han were simple. Fight for yourself from now on and with that we get the fight the fans as well as Han and Jin wanted.
There is no anger. There is no other thing in there heads other than to win an honest fight with each other. A fight that as an anime fan looks great to watch as we see these two go all out.
Now to Mujin surprise they are both pretty strong as remember to him this was only supposed to make Jin reveal his true potential but we see Han is no slouch either. But Jin does win and while Han has to put up with Mira and Jin arguing we see there are more players involved. Players fans probably have been itching to see and we will start seeing more of them soon. Until then.
