When Asuka is in the third grade, at the fall championship, she lost to a boy who has just joined her karate dojo (karate gym) in the summer. She is very disappointed and about to give up karate altogether. But then, her Sensei (Karate coach) and her mom encouraged her to overcome the difficulty and unfairness and to grow an unbreakable mind.
