Story spoilers
When critics accuse Ken's bull fight of being fake, Shougo becomes furious and attacks doubters despite Ken's warning that karate should not be used for personal fights, leading Ken to expel him. Shougo later grows extremely strong, challenges dojos and attacks people in the name of avenging Ken's honor. After being jailed, he renounces his apprenticeship in writing made with his own blood, escapes, then crashes a car into a street pole while driving recklessly and later dies from his injuries.
