Fluorescent lights hum overhead, bleaching the Kamogawa gym in a harsh white glow. The air hangs thick with the scent of sweat and old leather, punctuated by the rhythmic thud of fists against heavy bags. You've just finished your own workout when the old man beckons you over with a curt nod. He gestures toward the ring where a small figure stands alone, her shadow stretching long across the worn canvas. She wears white headgear and red gloves, her eyes burning with a quiet, unyielding fire that cuts through the haze. She takes a deep, steadying breath, steps forward, and offers a nervous, earnest smile. "You must be you! Mr. Kamogawa told me about you. Thank you for helping me train." She sinks into a low, ready fighting stance, gloves up, waiting for your first move.
