Kyoko-senpai!
**[02:55] Kyoko**
Ciao.
**[02:56] Seven**
Yes! I'm so lucky
we're working the same shift!
**[02:59] Kyoko**
What shifts you got, Ren-chan?
**[03:01] Seven**
I'm doing today and tomorrow.
**[03:03] Kyoko**
Mine's the first day,
today, and the final day.
**[03:06] Seven**
That's a lot. Thanks for your hard work.

**[03:10] Kyoko**
So how's it going with that
one-sided crush of yours?
**[03:14] Seven**
Oh, uh... I don't know if you'd call them *dates*
as such, but we've gone out a few times.
**[03:19] Kyoko**
I see.
**[03:21] Kyoko**
So he's probably someone
you're pretty close to.
**[03:25] Kyoko**
What's he do, anyway?
**[03:26] Seven**
I'm kinda not ready to say yet.
**[03:30] Seven**
Sorry. But I promise I'll keep
you updated, Kyoko-senpai.
**[03:36] Kyoko**
Sounds complicated.
**[03:38] Kyoko**
Well, I'll be waiting.
**[03:40] Kyoko**
Must be nice to be young.
**[03:42] Staff**
Kyoko-san. Number Seven.
Please be on standby.

**[03:49] Kanata**
Mama Mayuko.
**[03:50] Kanata**
Could you help me with something?
**[03:52] Kanata**
My employer at my part-time job
asked me to fill out some paperwork,
**[03:57] Kanata**
but I'm not sure what to do for it.
**[03:59] Mayuko**
Sure. Let me take a look.
**[04:06] Mayuko**
First, you'll want to write
your name and address here.
**[04:09] Mayuko**
You probably can't write kanji,
so just use the English alphabet.
**[04:13] Kanata**
It's okay. I've already learned
my name and address.
**[04:23] Mayuko**
* No way. Westerners usually*
* have a lot of trouble with kanji.*
**[04:28] Sign**
Katagiri Kana
**[04:30] Mayuko**
Kana-chan, are you... like Katherine?
**[04:35] Mayuko**
Can you recall everything you see?
**[04:39] Kanata**
*That was a mistake.*
**[04:41] Kanata**
No, this isn't anything special.
I just practiced a lot, so...
**[04:47] Mayuko**
You don't have to hide it from me.
**[04:51] Mayuko**
Your mother and I were classmates
for four years at art school.
**[04:56] Mayuko**
We were best friends and told
each other lots of private things.
**[05:00] Mayuko**
I know pretty much everything about her.
**[05:04] Kanata**
Mama Mayuko...
**[05:08] Kanata**
My mum always used to say to me...
**[05:12] Kanata**
that I shouldn't show what I could do
around people who didn't know me.
**[05:19] Kanata**
It was totally normal to us,
but apparently quite unusual to others,
**[05:24] Kanata**
and that can sometimes
cause issues in relationships.
**[05:29] Mayuko**
That's fair. If someone's unfamiliar with it,
I can see how they might react negatively.
**[05:35] Mayuko**
But it's not an issue for me.
**[05:38] Mayuko**
If anything, it just drives home
that you really are your mother's son.
**[05:45] Mayuko**
The thing about your mother is, even in
a school filled with so many talented artists,
**[05:50] Mayuko**
she still managed to stand out.
**[05:54] Mayuko**
She had a natural brilliance as an artist.
**[05:58] Mayuko**
But I didn't expect you to inherit it.
**[06:11] Otani**
* Seeing that kind of time*
* set on the second day*
**[06:14] Otani**
* has kinda screwed with the*
* heads of everyone running later.*
**[06:18] Otani**
* Well, I'm not gonna let*
* these younger guys beat me.*
**[06:21] Otani**
*I won't be messed with!*
**[06:26] Commentator**
*And next up is the 16, the Lotus Exige.*
**[06:30] Commentator**
* It's the turn of Yashio Kakeru,*
* the older brother in the Yashi-Kita Gang.*
**[06:35] Commentator**
* Yesterday, we saw the 18, the Alfa Romeo 4C*
* driven by his sister, Kitahara Nozomi...*
**[06:41] Commentator**
*...post a good time that put her near the top.*
**[06:43] Commentator**
* Can the older sibling pull off*
* a similar feat? We watch with interest.*
**[06:48] Aiba**
* Number Seven's tuchus is the only thing*
* that can heal my broken heart now.*
**[06:54] Aiba**
*It's a damn work of art.*
**[06:57] Aiba**
*The cameraman today just doesn't get it.*
**[07:00] Aiba**
*A zoom won't do. Get right in there!*
**[07:03] Aiba**
* You need to get closer to*
* capture the real feel of it.*
**[07:08] Mayuko**
The first time I saw Katherine sketching,
I was honestly pretty shocked.
**[07:13] Mayuko**
Most people usually look back and forth
between their subject and the canvas.
**[07:21] Mayuko**
But that wasn't how Katherine did it.
She stared at the subject for a while...
**[07:27] Mayuko**
then once her gaze switched to
her sketchbook, her eyes never left it.
**[07:32] Mayuko**
She produced an incredible sketch
at a remarkable speed.
**[07:37] Mayuko**
When I asked her how she did it,
**[07:39] Mayuko**
she said she could accurately recall
everything she saw in her mind.
**[07:44] Mayuko**
She said it had always been like that,
so it just seemed natural to her.
**[07:50] Mayuko**
So I can see how people would be surprised.
**[07:53] Mayuko**
Do you ever draw, Kana-chan?
**[07:57] Kanata**
My mum never really
encouraged me down that path.
**[08:05] Kanata**
I was the outdoorsy type,
playing soccer and racing karts,
**[08:09] Kanata**
and she always seemed happy
whenever I was playing a sport.
**[08:14] Kanata**
It's probably because she struggled
with her own health a lot.
**[08:19] Kanata**
I think she was really
concerned about mine.
**[08:23] Mayuko**
I'm sure she was.
**[08:25] Mayuko**
Well, if you ever feel like it, you're welcome
to come to the drawing class I teach.
**[08:31] Mayuko**
I get the feeling you could
produce something remarkable.
**[08:35] Mayuko**
Something tells me the senses you inherited
from Katherine weren't only meant for racing.
**[08:41] Sign**
Katagiri Kanata
**[08:42] Kanata**
Yes, Mama Mayuko.
**[08:45] Kanata**
I'd love to learn how to draw one day.
**[08:51] Kanata**
I might be embarrassingly bad at it at first,
**[08:54] Kanata**
but one day, I'd like to draw
the landscapes of Kamakura.
**[09:07] Kakeru**
*If nothing else, I gotta beat Nozomi's time.*
**[09:10] Kakeru**
*Can't maintain my brotherly pride otherwise.*
**[09:16] Nozomi**
Huh?
**[09:17] Nozomi**
He's not doing great, is he?
**[09:20] Nozomi**
All his checkpoint times
are slower than mine.
**[09:23] Yamatani**
You're right. But I'd say
it's less Kakeru being slow
**[09:27] Yamatani**
and more you being on fire
yesterday, Nozomi-chan.
**[09:30] Nozomi**
Why not chew him out over comms?
**[09:32] Yamatani**
That's not a good idea.
**[09:34] Yamatani**
Unlike you, provoking him while
he's driving just seems to distract him.
**[09:39] Nozomi**
Just let me say one thing to him, then.
**[09:42] Nozomi**
Hand me the headset, Yamatani-kun.
**[09:44] Yamatani**
*Hey, wait, Nozomi-chan...*
**[09:44] Nozomi**
*This is the booth.*
**[09:46] Nozomi**
At your current pace, bro,
you're two seconds behind me!
**[09:50] Nozomi**
*Over!*
**[09:51] Kakeru**
Say what?
**[09:52] Kakeru**
*That little...*
**[09:53] Yamatani**
Ah, she's done it now.
**[10:00] Commentator**
* And the Yashi-Kita Gang's eagerly awaited*
* head-to-head ends in victory to the sister!*
**[10:09] Narration**
* The next day, early rain grows*
* more persistent through the day,*
**[10:12] Sign**
Ashinoko Skyline
**[10:12] Narration**
* and the time trials are*
* immediately canceled.*
**[10:18] Narration**
* Qualifying for MFG takes*
* place over an entire week,*
**[10:21] Narration**
* so there are frequently delays*
* caused by changes in the weather.*
**[10:26] Narration**
* This is allowed due to its nature as an internet*
* broadcast with no trackside spectators.*
**[10:38] Kanata**
Hello, Ren.
**[10:40] Ren**
Kanata?
**[10:41] Ren**
What are you doing?
**[10:42] Kanata**
I'm on my way home from work.
**[10:44] Ren**
That's not what I meant.
Why don't you have an umbrella?
**[10:48] Kanata**
No one uses umbrellas in England.
**[10:51] Ren**
That's great and all, but this is Japan.
**[10:54] Ren**
If you go out without an umbrella,
people are gonna think you're a weirdo.
**[10:58] Kanata**
I don't mind.
**[11:00] Kanata**
I like the rain.
**[11:02] Ren**
W-Well, too bad. What if you get sick?
**[11:06] Kanata**
Thank you, Ren. You're so kind.
**[11:19] Ren**
*Kanata's face is so close to mine...*
**[11:25] Mayuko**
What were you thinking?
You're soaking wet, Kana-chan!
**[11:28] Mayuko**
You need to learn to take an
umbrella when it's going to rain.

* And as the sun rises, we're looking at perfectly*

**[11:56] Commentator**
* Driving the 10, the Lexus*

**[12:03] Commentator**
* And in the 5, the Audi R8,*

* the 4 car remains at the top.*

*Still, there's no telling how it'll end up,*

* it's Akaba Kaito in the 2 car, the Ferrari!*
**[12:43] Akaba**
*There are monsters prowling in MFG.*
**[12:45] Akaba**
*It's devour or be devoured.*
**[12:47] Akaba**
*It's survival of the fittest.*
**[12:54] Kanata**
Ogata-san, the red Ferrari is on its run.
**[13:00] Kanata**
What an expensive car. It's so cool.
**[13:04] Kanata**
I noticed the higher-ranked cars do
their runs first. Is there some kind of rule?
**[13:11] Ogata**
It's kind of a reward
for the top-ranked drivers.
**[13:14] Kanata**
Thank you.
**[13:16] Ogata**
Every time there's an accident on the course,
the time trials have to be delayed a while.
**[13:21] Ogata**
That means the further down the list you are,
the more your start time gets delayed.
**[13:26] Ogata**
So the sooner the run, the less chance you'll
be disrupted. And you can fine-tune your car.
**[13:31] Ogata**
Basically, being high up in the points means
you get a better, earlier slot to do you run.
**[13:36] Kanata**
I see. It's a well-thought-out system.
**[13:39] Ogata**
Qualifying at Lake Ashinoko
tends to get delayed a lot.
**[13:44] Ogata**
Yesterday was a total mess.
There were five accidents in the death zone.
**[13:48] Ogata**
It meant the final car ended up
being delayed by an hour and a half.
**[13:54] Ogata**
The death zone for this
course is seriously scary.
**[13:57] Ogata**
Be careful out there.
**[13:59] Kanata**
Yes, sir.
**[14:00] Kanata**
I've seen the demo run.
**[14:06] Ogata**
You really like those, huh?
**[14:08] Kanata**
They're delicious. Japan has
the best snacks in the world.
**[14:11] Kanata**
They're so refined,
I feel like I can eat them all day.
**[14:16] Ogata**
* He's doing his run tomorrow.*
* How can he be so relaxed?*
**[14:21] Ogata**
*Doesn't he ever get nervous?*
**[14:25] Kanata**
Ogata-san?
**[14:27] Ogata**
Y'know, I'm not the one behind the wheel,
but I'm still freaking out here.
**[14:33] Ogata**
My heart won't stop pounding.
**[14:36] Ogata**
Kanata, don't you feel pressure at all?
**[14:42] Kanata**
Not when it comes to racing, no.
**[14:45] Kanata**
After all, I've done it for longer than I can
remember, dating back to when I was small.
**[14:50] Kanata**
It'd be one thing if I was
in a championship fight,
**[14:53] Kanata**
but in this case, I'm a regular
challenger. I'm genuinely excited.
**[15:00] Commentator**
* Akaba Kaito finishes in*

* Driving the 8, the Porsche 911*

* Things have been weirdly tense*
* right from the start this season.*
**[15:27] Taylor**
*I can't afford to make any mistakes,*
**[15:29] Taylor**
*but playing it too safe would be even worse.*
**[15:32] Taylor**
* The second you start driving defensively,*
* you'll be blasted out of the Godly Fifteen.*
**[15:38] Taylor**
* That's how intense the*
* level of competition is now.*
**[15:43] Taylor**
* I've never gone into a time attack*
* feeling this amount of pressure before.*
**[15:51] Commentator**
* And Taylor in the 8 ends up*
* in a provisional fifth place!*
**[15:55] Commentator**
*There are two days of qualifying left!*
**[16:05] Mayuko**
Want some more coffee, Kana-chan?
**[16:07] Kanata**
I'm good. It's getting late,
so I'll head to my room now.
**[16:11] Kanata**
Thanks for the coffee.
**[16:14] Ren**
I think I will, too.
**[16:15] Ren**
I've got tomorrow off, so maybe
I'll do my extra lessons for Monday.
**[16:19] Mayuko**
I don't want you two staying up too late.

Yo. I came to root for you.
**[17:40] Kanata**
Aiba-senpai!
**[17:42] Ogata**
I thought only associated personnel were
allowed in the paddock on the sixth day.
**[17:46] Aiba**
Big shots like me get by on recognition.
**[17:50] Aiba**
You'll wanna aim for provisional 12th
with all you've got, Kanata.
**[17:53] Aiba**
It'll be tough, but you need to
do that to qualify for the race.
**[17:57] Kanata**
The 86 has evolved quite a bit, so as long as
I don't make any mistakes, I've got a chance.
**[18:03] Aiba**
*As usual, he's annoying calm.*

Can you explain anything
I don't understand, Daddy?
**[18:32] Ren Dad**
Sure, ask me anything.

it's important you learn about the races.

* This year's MFG visit to Lake Ashinoko*

* the man with the most pole positions,*

*Ishigami Fujin in the 1 car!*
**[18:54] Commentator**
*But there's one other driver of note today...*
**[18:59] Commentator**
* Someone I bet the fans are*
* very familiar with by this point.*
**[19:02] Commentator**
* He qualified 15th last time out, despite*
* driving an underpowered Toyota 86 GT.*
**[19:07] Commentator**
* In the race, he shocked everyone*
* by clawing his way up to ninth.*
**[19:13] Commentator**
* On a relatively flat course like Ashinoko*
* with a lack of corners, how will he fare?*
**[19:19] Commentator**
* It's no surprise people call Katagiri*
* Kanata an unpredictable "miracle boy."*
**[19:29] Commentator**
* And so, the 86 arrives at the gate*
