Outro with partner

Iron Tager

Situation Quote Audio
Intro Akihiko: A battle is determined by the quality and mass of a team's muscles. These guys don't stand a chance.
Tager: ...Is that some sort of tactical calculation?
Intro

Akihiko: Victory only comes to those who train.
Outro

Hakumen

Situation Quote Audio
Intro Hakumen: My justice will not falter, no matter how many foes stand against me.

Situation Quote Audio
Generic This won't do at all... You don't have the training or the muscles. Do some squats and come back!
Generic
Generic Heh... You've really improved. I can't wait to fight you again.
Generic
Generic Now that's the kind of fight that gets your blood going! This is gonna make me even stronger. Nice job.
Generic
Generic We just barely won. Guess I still need more training. How 'bout we train together?
Generic
Generic Hm!? This fight just gave me a great idea for a new workout! I've gotta get going. Adios!
Generic
Partner with Iron Tager Akihiko: A good battle like that deserves a good celebration! A toast, with the finest ale-- or, maybe the finest beef bowls!
Tager: Very well. But if you wouldn't mind, please pour me a glass of natural oil.
Partner with Iron Tager
Partner with Hakumen Hakumen: There is no meaning to justice without power. If you have something to protect, words are useless. Pick up your sword and take action.
Akihiko: The time you spend training will never betray you. If you get lonely training alone, how about a partner?
Partner with Hakumen
Partner with Makoto Nanaya Akihiko: Good, but it's not enough. I need more! My muscles still haven't been pushed to their limit!
Makoto: Uh oh, his weirdo switch has been flipped... There's no stopping him now...
Partner with Makoto Nanaya
Partner with Azrael Akihiko: My muscles are twitching... That must mean they still have room to grow. It's too early for protein now, so this calls for more training!
Azrael: Good, I like that fighting spirit of yours... Very well! I'll take you on!
Partner with Azrael
Partner with Susano'o Akihiko: Power's not about winning or losing. It's all about having a challenger's mentality. I don't care whether you're a god or not, just stop talking trash.
Susano'o: You speak out of turn, human filth. You desire a challenge? Then face the greatest this world has to offer: God's judgment!
Partner with Susano'o
Partner with Chie Satonaka Akihiko: Nice kick. You stuck to your training, and it shows. Next up, I'll show you the best protein powders for women. They're really good, too.
Chie: Thank you, Master! I hope they come in meat flavor!
Partner with Chie Satonaka
Partner with Mitsuru Kirijo Akihiko: Heh. Guess we're fighting together again.
Mitsuru: Whenever I'm with you, I feel driven to reach greater heights... I guess the word "rivals" suits us well.
Partner with Mitsuru Kirijo
Partner with Aegis Akihiko: Your body will never betray you. Your body was telling me that you've got the potential to become much stronger.
Aegis: So the body really speaks? Impressive, Sanada-san. I could not hear it.
Partner with Aegis
Partner with Waldstein Waldstein: This battle was truly thrilling! I am grateful to have met a warrior such as you.
Akihiko: Heh. Well, we both share the desire to be our best, after all. Can't wait to train with you again.
Partner with Waldstein
Partner with Carmine Akihiko: Your mind slips because you're thinking about so many unnecessary things. With the proper training, you'd be able to cut down on the internal chatter. I can teach you, what do you say?
Carmine: Gaaah, shut up! Just shut up! What the hell do you know!? Get the hell out of my sight. You don't know anything about me...
Partner with Carmine
Partner with Mika Mika: Total victory! ♪ C'mon, let's run toward the sunset!
Akihiko: Sure, I could use a jog! And once we're done, let's celebrate with some protein shakes.
Partner with Mika
Partner with Yang Xiao Long Yang: I guess that was kind of fun. But it's not a game, so I can't afford to give anything less than my all.
Akihiko: Looks to me like you really do value your training. It shows in battle, too. Your reads were really sharp.
Partner with Yang Xiao Long
Partner with Heart Aino Akihiko: I'm still not there yet... I know I can push myself farther. I haven't yet reached the strength I'm looking for!
Heart: So your love takes the shape of training? That's so awesome!
Partner with Heart Aino
Partner with Akatsuki Akihiko: How 'bout it, Akatsuki? You up for a match with me? My fists are callin' out for another fight!
Akatsuki: I'd step into the ring... But do you mind if I refuel a little first?
