The eight stars that reside in the sky...
...that can be seen only by those who possess true strength...
He set out on a journey in search of these stars.
They call him a...
...Virtua Fighter!
One close look at you...
...my destiny shouts at me.
In the bustling city, the energy comes alive.
Don't turn away, accept it.
Throw away the faded map.
And laugh, be carefree and positive.
Toss a coin, tempt fate...
Get the whole world involved.
Lured in by the stars...
Set out towards the unknowns of tomorrow.
With only your smile to depend on...
That's right, Hot Wild Vision, my heart flies.
No matter how far the sky may be.
Knock Wild Vision, and exalt you...
...until the day I can hold you in my arms.
In the course of their search for Sarah, Akira and Jacky discovered that...
...Pai is the daughter of Lau Chan, the head of the Koenkan.
Jacky was convinced that Pai was part of the plot to kidnap Sarah.
But Pai managed to clear the air by...
...explaining that she hates her father for putting martial arts before family.
Reconciled, they fend of yet another attack by Lee, and...
...continue on their way to Durricks research lab.

How can you live with yourself after being beaten so badly?
Chief...
I don't recall having enlisted such a coward...
You took care of Yan...
...so you know how this works.
Wow, look, cowboys!
It's like a Western movie.
It's nothing to get excited about.
Hey Jacky, how long until the next town?
I'm hungry.
Is that all you ever think about?
Do you have a spare tire?
This is the spare.
The original one wore out a long time ago.
Wait a minute, you come from a rich family, right?
Then why don't you get that butler you were talking to...
You mean Thomas?
Yeah, Thomas, why don't you get him to buy you a new tire?
Look.
It may be one measly tire, but I want to buy it with the money I earn.
We're going all the way to Salt Lake with this?
I've got an idea.
Great idea, Jacky.
A turtle would move faster than this.
I'll get a new tire when we get to the next town.
The money from the race in Vegas should be deposited in my account by now.
Eat first, fix later?
Where hunger abides, there can be no battle.
What's that?
A Japanese proverb.
It means one cannot work on an empty stomach...
So what would you like?
His treat, have whatever you want.
Thank you, Jacky.
W-Wait a minute!
Big news, Sheriff!
On the double, Edie.
Y-Yes, sir...
I will protect this town...
Don't tell me you're gonna eat all this.
Of course!
And you expect me to pay for this?
Well, Thomas isn't here to pay for it, is he?
You've gotta be joking.
We won't have enough money for the tire.
Hold it.
Don't move a muscle!
Put your hands on your head.
Any sudden moves and you'll be dust in 0.2 seconds.
What about my food?
Stop crying!
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can be used against you in a court of law.
We're not criminals.
What the?
That's a terrible picture!
You're coming to the station with us.
What did we do?
Shut up!
We know you blew up the gas station.
No, the guy who blew up the gas station was...
Just come with me!
We didn't do it.
This is ridiculous, let's go Akira.
Hey, hold it!
Hey Jacky...
Freeze or I'll shoot!
Eddie, you go and throw her in the cage.
Your car's out of commission.
Run Akira!
What?
You aren't going anywhere!
Hey, hold it!
New York
Koenkan America Headquarters
Master Ryu...
...please accept my apologies for the unsightly plight of my subordinate.
Gates...
...I know you are busy with the Koenkan branches throughout the States...
...but I'd like you to personally take over this matter of capturing Pai Chan.
It would be my pleasure.
I've already started making arrangements to work something out.
I've decided to give our interferers a little break.
Hey listen!
You've got to let me out of here, I really need to get going!
Uh-uh.
I'm not authorized to let you out.
You've got to ask the Sheriff.
When's he getting back?
After he arrests your friends.
They're not going to be easy to catch, you know.
The Sheriff's not going to give up that easily, either.
How long is he gonna follow us?
Who knows!
Freeze or I'll shoot!
Shoot...
Looks like we finally got rid of him.
So we don't have to run anymore.
Running on an empty stomach is tough.
We gotta keep running, if we get caught we'll never make it to Salt Lake.
Hey are we really going to Salt Lake without the car?
Yeah.
What about Pai?
I'm not letting you get away.
That old man just doesn't give up.
Hang on a second Jacky.
We should just tell him the truth.
That we're not the ones who blew the gas station up.
Akira!
Howdy Sheriff.
Where hunger abides, there can be no battle.
I'd like the opportunity to plead our case after we eat...
You're under arrest.
Stupid.
State Police, we've come to take custody of the perps.
State Police?
You should have confessed from the beginning.
We let you arrest us so we could prove our innocence.
I arrested you!
Hey...
Are you all right?
Y-Yeah...
Let's rest for a second.
We won't run, I promise.
What's the matter?
Nothing, it's just my stomach...
Your stomach?
I'm starved...
When we get back to the office, we'll get you food.
Really?
You don't know what you've just promised him.
Stop it, I haven't done anything, I'm innocent!
What's going on over there?
You two, stay put.
Hey, wait a minute Pops.
Hey Eddie, what's going on?
Well, these folks here are State Police.
State Police?
You mind explaining?
This woman is a dangerous criminal wanted in several states.
Good work sir, we'll take it from here.
Hold it, it's not that easy.
Even if you were the President of the United States...
...she was arrested in this town, this is where she stands trial.
I've been doing this for 40 years.
You are one hard headed old man.
Wait, aren't those two are the ones on the wanted list?
Hold it...
Are you really State Police?
Hold it!
Sheriff!
That jerk!
Are you okay?
Eddie, load the gun...
...and call the State Police.
Go check if that girl is really on the wanted list...
...and if those guys are really State Police.
Yes, sir!
Sheriff, those guys were imposters after all.
I knew it, we're going after them.
But...
What?
Uh, well, I'd like to remind you that you are retiring today, so why would you...
Look, as long as I'm wearing this badge...
...it's my duty to protect this town.
We'll help.
They're probably from the Koenkan.
Koenkan, the martial art group?
They've been after Pai.
Why?
Well, it's a long story, but I know that Pai isn't on any wanted list.
And their men blew up the gas station.
That's enough.
I've been doing this long enough to know who the bad guys are.
This is my town, I know it like the back of my hand.
Hang on.
A car with a flat tire is a smoother ride than this!
What is your problem, I said lose the old man!
Sir!
I won't let you get away!
Pai!
Are you okay, Pai?
Freeze!
Remember, we still have the girl.
Shoot...
Toshininsho!
Toshininsho is a technique in which the opponent's leg is locked and tripped.
Raiinsho is then used to complete the move while the opponent is down.
As long as the opponent is successfully tripped, it can be used from a distance.
This advanced level Koenken technique can be used with a variety of moves.
Now!
Jacky, you take care of them.
Okay!
Are you all right?
Y-Yeah.
I'm fine, go after him!
Leave it to me!
Hold it!
What the...
You're the last criminal I will arrest.
We fixed your car and brought it here.
Wow, a brand new tire.
Hey, where's the Sheriff?
Yeah, where did he go?
Maybe he's in the bathroom crying.
Here.
What's this?
Fried chicken and turkey sandwiches.
Wow, these look great!
Thanks, Sheriff.
Oh, and one more thing.
A good luck charm...
Hey now.
This belongs to you.
Besides, I'm searching for my own stars.
Hey!
We better get going.
Goodbye.
Take care
You, too.
Bye!
Oh, there you are, Sheriff.
Can't start the party without the guest of honor.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Sheriff, where were you?
You've kept all these beautiful ladies waiting.
Huh, all I see are old bags over the hill.
How rude!
I want you to know the most beautiful me.
I love only you.
Rain in the city, like a water color painting...
As though you can see through my wet T-shirt straight into my heart.
I gave you a vague reply.
But I want to hear it from your lips...
How to love...
...and how to be loved.
Awaken me with your kiss.
So I can change while living in a dream.
The Next Episode
Hi there, I'm Akira!
We finally get into the lab in Salt Lake where they are holding Sarah captive...
...but the place is rigged with all kinds of traps, this is problem!
What's that, a robot is coming after us!
The next episode of Virtua Fighter, "Death Match on the Lake."
They think stupid robots can defeat me, well, I show them!
