-- TO MY FRIENDS --
What kind of determination we have in our hearts
decides whether we are victorious or not.
"I will win, no matter what the circumstances!"
By making such an unwavering determination,
let's take brave and decisive actions!
Let's become people of strong conviction just like
lion kings!

write a magnificent history. Never retreat a single step."
