### Summary
The main narrative, paused on the heavyweight championship bout between Yu and Aaron Tide, remains on hold as the story delves deeper into a flashback exploring the past of the series' true antagonist, Coach K. This continuation takes a darker turn, presenting K with a morally complex "trolley problem" and introducing a character resembling his future henchman. A sudden, violent event implied by a "Bang" has left the fate of a beloved "kitty" from K's past uncertain, becoming a major source of reader anxiety. While the author appears to be providing a tragic backstory involving trauma, PTSD, and mental illness to humanize the manipulative trainer, reader reception is overwhelmingly negative. The audience rejects any attempt at sympathy, viewing K as an irredeemable "psycho" and his past suffering as an insufficient justification for his cruel actions. Instead of feeling conflicted, readers express a desire for the main plot to resume, calling for Yu's salvation from his mentor and, surprisingly, prioritizing a potential reunion between Yu and the endangered kitty over the main conflict.
