Yawara! A Fashionable Judo Girl - 1x56 I... Am Quitting Judo!

Media frenzy at the airport as the Japan judo team returns from the World Cup. Yawara escapes from the media leaving Jigoro to deal with them. All the Musashiyama judo members and Fujiko and company are there also to greet her. Hanazono mistakenly holds hands with Fujiko, and they appear to have some chemistry (the two are matched in height and enthusiasm for Yawara's judo). Yawara tells Tamao that she could not find her father in Seoul. Jigoro parades around with Yawara's gold medal for his friends to admire. Meanwhile, as Kojiro wolfs down food, Sayaka tells him she is willing to pay him 100 million yen or 2–3 times that much in order to teach her how to defeat Yawara (she is not interested in any gold metals) and become an "Invincible judo lady." Teleshikova receives lavish praises as she returns home, and asks that the coach gather male judokas at the dojo for immediate training. Jody is already lifting weights in bed at the hospital. Fujiko and Hanazono end up holding hands as they pledge fan support to Yawara for the Barcelona Olympics, where judo will be an official sport (in her head, however, Yawara has decided to quit judo). Matsuda is getting drunk as he is depressed about Yawara quitting judo (he is the only person who knows at this point), whereas Shinnosuke returns to his old ways by taking out another woman for a date. Sayaka calls Shinnosuke to tell him that Kojiro is with her, which is overheard by Matsuda. Yawara tells Fujiko that she is quitting judo, greatly upsetting her. Kojioro has been offered 600 million yen by her parents to coach Sayaka. Shinnosuke is tasked with testing whether Kojiro is qualified to coach Sayaka.
