Professional wrestler Reika Saiki, bodybuilder Naotaka Yokokawa,
Episode 3
I think the last image pretty much sums up the series so far .
By the way really enjoying this series . Entertainment , mixed with education , and motivation.
Edit: The dub is up for the first episode on Funimation . It’s ok . I’m not sure of the exact reason ,but I feel I’m enjoying the Japanese cast more so unless episode 2’s dub really wows me I probably won’t watch the English dub until home video or it’s all out .
