[00:00] HARUKA
    He hasn't cast aside anyone's life.
[00:03] HARUKA
    He's been carrying them
    with him this whole time.
[00:06] SHOUZOU
    Keep taking lots of pictures, photographer.
[00:12] KOUYA
    I will.
[00:14] KOUYA
    I will.
[00:15] KOUYA
    Thanks for waiting.
[00:17] HARUKA
    It's fine.
[00:19] HARUKA
    I don't mind.
[00:26] FUTOSHI
    Get some nice pictures.
    It'll affect the price.
[00:30] KOTAROU
    But I'm no good at taking pictures.
[00:35] FUTOSHI
    Maybe I'll ask Madoka-chan
    the next time he's here.
[00:38] KOTAROU
    I wonder if Haru got to talk to Madoka-chan.
[00:41] KOTAROU
    I haven't heard from him
    since he left for Tohoku.
[00:44] FUTOSHI
    He said he'd be staying there for a while.
[00:48] FUTOSHI
    Well, he's with Madoka-chan.
     I'm sure he's fine.
[00:54] KOTAROU
    Do we really have to sell it?
[00:57] FUTOSHI
    If Haruka's not driving it,
    it's just taking up space.
[01:01] FUTOSHI
    It'd be a waste if it just
    rusted away in storage.
[01:04] KOTAROU
    I know that, but still...
[01:06] FUTOSHI
    It's properly maintained,
    and if someone wants to enter a race,
[01:10] FUTOSHI
    they can overhaul the engine on a lease.
[01:13] FUTOSHI
    It's still usable, so it's best if
    it goes to someone who'll drive it.
[01:19] KOTAROU
    How about you drive it
     as a "gentleman driver"?
[01:24] FUTOSHI
    Who, me?
[01:25] FUTOSHI
    With all this extra weight?
[01:27] KOTAROU
    You should really lose that.
    You've got a lot of neutral fat, right?
[01:31] HARUKA
    What? You're going to start racing, Pops?
[01:33] HARUKA
    In that case, I won't have a car to drive.
[01:37] KOTAROU
    Haru.
[01:39] HARUKA
    I turned Belsorriso down.
[03:13] KOTAROU
    So, c'mon, how'd it go?
[03:15] KOTAROU
    How was your trip to Tohoku?
    How was Madoka-chan?
[03:18] KOTAROU
    Did you work things out?
[03:21] HARUKA
    Yeah.
[03:22] HARUKA
    A lot happened,
    but I guess we worked things out.
[03:26] KOTAROU
    That doesn't tell me anything!
[03:28] HARUKA
    It's a really long story.
[03:31] KOTAROU
    Then give me the short version.
[03:35] HARUKA
    Things turned out okay.
[03:37] KOTAROU
    That's too short.
[03:39] KOTAROU
    And these aren't from Tohoku.

    I realized around Utsunomiya
    that I forgot to get you something.
[03:45] HARUKA
    Don't want 'em?
[03:46] KOTAROU
    I do. I'll eat 'em.
[03:49] FUTOSHI
    But are you sure about this, Haruka?
[03:51] HARUKA
    Huh?
[03:52] FUTOSHI
    Rejecting Ena-san's offer, I mean.
[03:57] KOTAROU
    Wouldn't driving for Belsorriso
    be better than driving with us?
[04:01] KOTAROU
    If you wanna go pro and move to a higher
    category, you'd win more races with them.
[04:08] HARUKA
    I know that. But...
[04:12] HARUKA
    My goal isn't to go pro.
[04:16] HARUKA
    I'll probably want to race
     professionally someday.
[04:20] HARUKA
    But there's something I have to do first.
[04:24] KOTAROU
    Something you have to do?
[04:26] HARUKA
    I want to stand on the winner's podium
    myself and see the view from the top.
[04:32] HARUKA
    That's what I've been trying to do.
[04:36] HARUKA
    I want to see the view my dad showed me
     with my own abilities this time.
[04:42] HARUKA
    Pops. Kota.
[04:45] HARUKA
    Up until now, you've fought
    alongside me to achieve that goal.
[04:49] HARUKA
    So I want to reach the podium
     with Komaki Motors.
[04:53] FUTOSHI
    Haruka...
[04:54] HARUKA
    Sometimes, doing the right thing
    the right way isn't enough.
[04:59] HARUKA
    I thought about a lot of things while I was
    with Kouya, like what's really important.
[05:05] HARUKA
    I know people will call me naive.
[05:08] HARUKA
    I know a pro would choose to race
    for the team that'd help him to win.
[05:14] HARUKA
    But I'm not a professional yet,
[05:17] HARUKA
    so I want to do what I can
    while I'm still an amateur.
[05:22] HARUKA
    I want to stand on the
    winner's podium with this team.
[05:26] FUTOSHI
    Okay.
[05:32] KOTAROU
    All right, I get it. If that's what
    you want, you can count on me.
[05:36] KOTAROU
    I promise I'll help get you
    onto that winner's podium.
[05:39] HARUKA
    Right.
[06:07] KOUYA
    Okay. I can do it.
[06:08] SAEKO
    What are you doing?
[06:10] SAEKO
    Pretending to be a taxi driver?
[06:11] KOUYA
    S-Sae-chan?! How long have you been there?
[06:14] SAEKO
    The door was unlocked. You're so careless.
[06:18] KOUYA
    Oh, I thought I locked it.
[06:21] SAEKO
    Well, either way, it's not like
    you have anything worth stealing.
[06:26] KOUYA
    Sure I do! I've got tons of my photos here!
[06:31] SAEKO
    So, um, are you okay now?
[06:34] KOUYA
    Huh?
[06:36] KOUYA
    Yeah, probably.
[06:39] KOUYA
    I freed myself from
    what's been clinging to me.
[06:42] KOUYA
    Well, no. It's all still here.
[06:45] KOUYA
    I'll probably carry it
     for the rest of my life.
[06:48] KOUYA
    But I don't think I'll buckle
     under the weight anymore.
[06:53] KOUYA
    Just kidding.
[06:55] SAEKO
    I'm sorry for everything up to now.
[06:56] KOUYA
    What?
[06:57] SAEKO
    Haruka-kun told me.
[07:00] SAEKO
    It wasn't actually the criticism
    that was making you suffer.
[07:05] SAEKO
    I thought I understood you,
[07:08] SAEKO
    but I actually understood
     nothing about you.
[07:11] KOUYA
    Oh, no, it's not your fault.
    It's my fault for not telling you.
[07:14] SAEKO
    But you couldn't talk about it then.
[07:19] SAEKO
    We should be thanking Haruka-kun.
[07:22] KOUYA
    Yeah, you're right.
[07:24] KOUYA
    Because of him, the weight
    on my shoulders feels lighter.
[07:27] SAEKO
    If you're okay now,
    should I send you modeling work?
[07:32] KOUYA
    No. I don't want to photograph people yet.
[07:36] KOUYA
    I've already decided
    who my first model will be.
[07:40] KOUYA
    The first thing I want to photograph
    is him on the winner's podium.
[07:48] SAEKO
    Who?
[07:48] KOUYA
    Huh?
[07:52] HARUKA
    Let's set it up to understeer a bit more.
[07:55] HARUKA
    I'll compensate with my driving.
[07:58] KOTAROU
    Sure, but do you really wanna mess
    with your setup all of a sudden?
[08:01] HARUKA
    It made me go faster
    when I tried it at Belsorriso.
[08:04] FUTOSHI
    Sometimes, just driving with
    a fast team makes you better.
[08:09] FUTOSHI
    Going to that setup isn't a bad idea.
[08:13] KOTAROU
    But there's no guarantee
    it'll work on this machine.
[08:16] HARUKA
    We'll make adjustments as we go.
[08:18] HARUKA
    You're good at adapting it to my driving.
[08:20] KOTAROU
    Well, of course I am! You can count on me.
[08:27] TOSHIKI
    My time?
[08:27] MECHANIC
    Your fourth lap was your best.
[08:32] ENA
    What's the matter, Tokumaru?
[08:34] ENA
    Your driving is lackluster.
[08:35] TOSHIKI
    E-Ena-san.
[08:39] ENA
    Can you take pole driving like this?
[08:42] TOSHIKI
    Sorry.
[08:43] ENA
    Looks like pairing you up
    with Asahina-kun backfired.
[08:47] ENA
    I was hoping it'd add some useful pressure.
[08:49] TOSHIKI
    No, this has nothing to do with him.
     I'm just having an off day.
[08:54] ENA
    You need to lead the team while Harunaga's
     in the hospital. I'm counting on you.
[08:58] TOSHIKI
    Yes, sir.
[09:04] TOSHIKI
    I'm gonna do another lap.
[09:08] TOSHIKI/ID
    I always thought the guys
    in front of me were my opponents.
[09:12] TOSHIKI/ID
    The guys behind me didn't matter
    because they were slower than me.
[09:16] TOSHIKI/ID
    That's what I thought till now.
[09:19] TOSHIKI/ID
    But it's different when I'm out front.
[09:22] TOSHIKI/ID
    There are no foes ahead of me.
[09:24] TOSHIKI/ID
    All my rivals are behind me,
    waiting for me to make a mistake.
[09:32] TOSHIKI/ID
    Damn it.
[09:33] ALICE
    That's 45. 46.
[09:36] ALICE
    47. 48.
[09:39] ALICE
    49. 50.
[09:43] ALICE
    Are you all right?
[09:45] SATSUKI
    Yeah, I'm totally...
[09:47] SATSUKI
    Ow, that hurts.
[09:49] ALICE
    I told you so.
[09:51] SATSUKI
    Apparently, my ribs will hurt for a while.
[09:54] SATSUKI
    But if I avoid moving them,
    my other muscles will atrophy.
[10:00] ALICE
    But won't straining yourself
     delay your recovery?
[10:04] SATSUKI
    That won't be a problem.
[10:06] SATSUKI
    I'm staying within the limits
    the doctor set for me.
[10:11] SATSUKI
    Getting depressed about it
    won't help me move forward.
[10:13] SATSUKI
    If I want to move forward,
    I have to overcome all obstacles,
[10:17] SATSUKI
    no matter what they are.
[10:20] ALICE
    No matter what...
[10:22] SATSUKI
    What you said made me
    realize that, Alice-chan. Thanks.
[10:26] ALICE
    H-H-Huh?
[10:27] ALICE
    I-I-I-It wasn't me! It was Niki Lauda.
[10:30] SATSUKI
    Could you time me?
[10:32] ALICE
    What?
[10:32] ALICE
    Oh, uh, um...
[10:34] ALICE
    One, two, three, four.
[10:37] SATSUKI
    No, I have a stopwatch.
[10:38] ALICE
    Oh, r-right.
[10:44] SATSUKI
    These are the only exercises I can do
    right now, since I can only use one leg.
[10:50] SATSUKI
    It's important to work on
    my endurance, not just my strength.
[10:56] SATSUKI
    In F4, drivers race
    continuously for 30 minutes.
[10:59] SATSUKI
    But in F1, it's nearer two hours.
[11:02] SATSUKI
    I need the endurance to do that,
[11:07] SATSUKI
    because my career won't end with F4.
[11:19] SAEKO
    He didn't do too well in qualifying.
[11:22] KOUYA
    Yeah.
[11:23] KOTAROU
    Damn it. What the hell?
    But the test day went so well!
[11:28] HARUKA
    Sorry. I messed up.
[11:30] KOUYA
    I can't believe he got blocked by slower cars
     every time he tried to do a fast lap.
[11:34] FUTOSHI
    Well, with more than 30 cars on
    the track, it's bound to happen.
[11:39] KOTAROU
    Damn it. They were totally old dudes
    with extra weight around the middle!
[11:44] SAEKO
    So, um, for the race, they line up
    in the order they qualified, right?
[11:49] KOUYA
    Right.
[11:50] SAEKO
    Where are you?
[11:52] HARUKA
    I'm 14th.
[11:53] SAEKO
    You're starting that far back?
[11:56] KOTAROU
    This is bad. I don't think we can win.
[11:59] SAEKO
    Then, what happens with you taking
    Haruka-kun's picture on the winner's podium?
[12:05] ENA
    Unlucky there, Asahina-kun.
[12:07] HARUKA
    Ena-san.
[12:09] ENA
    Looks like everyone's here today.
[12:12] SAEKO
    It's good to see you again.
[12:13] KOUYA
    Hello.
[12:14] FUTOSHI
    You seem to be doing as great as ever.
[12:17] ENA
    I hope we are.
[12:19] ENA
    I'm still not over Asahina-kun's rejection.
[12:24] HARUKA
    I'm sorry for turning down your offer.
[12:26] ENA
    Oh, it's fine, but you know...

[12:35] KOTAROU
    Hey! Did you come here
     just to make snide remarks?
[12:37] ENA
    No, I stopped by to
    show my support. Later.
[12:41] ENA
    Oh, yeah.
[12:43] ENA
    I know someone else who's
    depressed about your rejection.
[12:46] ENA
    I'd appreciate it if you could
    help motivate him, too.
[12:52] YUITANI
    Tokumaru-san, I look forward
    to racing with you today.
[12:55] TOSHIKI
    Sure.
[12:57] YUITANI
    I'll handle the guys behind you.
    You focus on driving up front.
[13:03] TOSHIKI
    Yeah.
[13:04] YUITANI
    You're so lucky, though,
    being the number one driver and all.
[13:07] YUITANI
    I hope to improve my skills
    so that I can lead the field someday.
[13:11] TOSHIKI
    You want to lead the field?
[13:14] YUITANI
    Of course. Everyone wants
    to be in the lead during a race.
[13:19] TOSHIKI
    In that case, Yuitani, do you
    want to go in front of me?
[13:22] YUITANI
    What?
[13:24] TOSHIKI
    I'll even let you take first.
[13:27] YUITANI
    A-Are you serious?
[13:28] TOSHIKI
    Of course. In racing, speed makes right.
[13:32] YUITANI
    If you're offering,
    I really will take first.
[13:37] TOSHIKI
    Sure. Do what you want.
[14:01] ALICE
    This is the world
    Satsuki-kun is trying to reach.
[14:05] ALICE
    F4 is just the start.
[14:08] FAN
    Look this way, please!
[14:10] ALICE
    Right.
[14:20] KOTAROU
    Here's the sexy grid girl
    you've been waiting for.
[14:24] HARUKA
    Thanks.
[14:27] KOTAROU
    Track surface is pretty hot.
     Watch out for overheating.
[14:30] HARUKA
    How high is it?
[14:30] KOTAROU
    What?
[14:31] HARUKA
    The track temp.
[14:36] KOTAROU
    On a scale from one to three,
[14:38] KOTAROU
    it's pretty hot.
[14:40] HARUKA
    Got it.
[14:40] KOTAROU
    You understood that?
[14:42] HARUKA
    I understood that you
    don't know the exact temp.
[14:45] KOTAROU
    I'm sure Belsorriso could give
    you a more precise answer.
[14:51] KOTAROU
    They're so far away.
[14:54] HARUKA
    They sure are.
[14:55] KOTAROU
    Don't worry.
[14:57] KOTAROU
    Just gotta pass 13 cars, and the win's yours.
[15:00] HARUKA
    I see. Sounds like a piece of cake.
[15:02] KOTAROU
    Yup, piece of cake.
[15:13] SAEKO
    What's the matter?
[15:14] KOUYA
    Huh? Oh, uh, nothing.
[15:17] KOUYA
    Man, I want Haruka-kun on the podium
    to be the first photo I take of a person,
[15:21] KOUYA
    but I nearly took his picture just now.
[15:24] KOUYA
    Just the nature of a photographer, I guess.
[15:27] SAEKO
    You should just take pictures
    instead of worrying about that.
[15:30] KOUYA
    No way. This is important.
[15:32] SAEKO
    It's not at all.
[15:34] SAEKO
    Stuff like, "I'll propose once
    I win the next game!" is just annoying.
[15:40] SAEKO
    A game is a game. A proposal is a proposal.
[15:43] KOUYA
    You think so?
[15:45] SAEKO
    You didn't make me wait, Kou-chan.
[15:47] KOUYA
    What? Well, of course not.
    I gave you my answer right away.
[15:50] SAEKO
    Boy, did you fool me.
[15:53] SAEKO
    I didn't know you were someone
    who acted without thinking.
[15:57] KOUYA
    I thought about it, okay? I really did!
[16:00] SAEKO
    Sure, sure.
[16:13] COMMENTARY
    It's lights out and away we go!
[16:21] COMMENTARY
    Wow! Asahina Haruka passes a gaggle
    of cars that were slow to get away.
[16:25] FUTOSHI
    The guys in front messed up the start.
[16:27] KOTAROU
    Go, Haru!
[16:39] MECHANIC 2-D
    Yuitani overtook Tokumaru.
[16:40] ENA
    Yeah.
[16:41] MECHANIC 2-B
    Is he having car trouble?
[16:44] ENA
    Let's see how it goes.
[16:45] ENA/ID
    So, what kind of race will he show me?
[16:50] HARUKA
    Suzuka has 20 corners.
[16:53] HARUKA
    The race is 11 laps.
[16:55] HARUKA
    In other words,
    there are 220 corners in total.
[16:58] HARUKA
    A tenth in each corner equals a gap
    of more than 20 seconds at the finish line.
[17:04] HARUKA
    That's the difference
    between 1st and 20th.
[17:08] HARUKA
    I need to be aware of the slip angle of
    my front tires and the rears in the corners.
[17:17] HARUKA
    I'll go where there's the most grip.
[17:27] HARUKA
    And as I start to slide,
    I'll hold my line.
[17:29] KOUYA
    All right!
[17:30] SAEKO
    Haruka-kun passed him!
[17:34] YUITANI
    First place is within my grasp.
[18:08] TOSHIKI
    Damn it.
[18:10] TOSHIKI
    Chasing someone is way less stressful
    than driving alone up front, but...
[18:17] TOSHIKI
    He's so damn slow!
[18:18] SIGN
    Sloooooooooow
[18:22] TOSHIKI
    The others are catching up.
[18:24] TOSHIKI
    Faster, Yuitani.
[18:34] COMMENTARY
    Yuitani has overshot the corner!
[18:43] TOSHIKI
    So I'm up front after all?
    Come on, try harder.
[18:56] KOTAROU
    Haru's up on the curb.
[18:58] FUTOSHI
    The striped curbing is like
    the toku-dawara of a sumo ring.
[19:01] FUTOSHI
    On some corners,
    they allow for a faster line.
[19:10] TOSHIKI
    Damn it. The guys behind
    are distracting me.
[19:13] TOSHIKI
    I need to keep my eyes forward.
[19:21] TOSHIKI
    How long is this gonna continue?
[19:26] SATSUKI
    As long as you have the lead,
     it'll go on forever.
[19:31] SATSUKI
    But I still want to be in the lead.
[19:42] TOSHIKI
    How long? How long?
[19:46] TOSHIKI
    Asahina?
[19:49] COMMENTARY
    Asahina Haruka dives to
    the inside and slips past.
[19:52] HARUKA
    Tokumaru.
[19:53] SAEKO
    Wow! Haruka-kun's in second!
[19:56] KOUYA
    Haruka-kun...
[19:59] COMMENTARY
    Asahina Haruka is homing in on the
    driver in the lead, Tokumaru Toshiki.
[20:04] FUTOSHI
    Yes, yes, yes!
[20:06] KOTAROU
    All right! That's 13 machines down!
[20:11] TOSHIKI/ID
    How long? How long?
[20:14] SAEKO
    Go, Haruka-kun! Climb that winner's podium!
[20:31] HARUKA
    No mistakes. Drive precisely.
    Right on the edge.
[20:35] SATSUKI
    Yeah. Driving right on the edge
    while avoiding mistakes.
[20:40] SATSUKI
    Forever. Flawlessly.
[20:49] COMMENTARY
    Did Asahina Haruka's rear tires just slide?
[20:52] KOTAROU
    Seriously? His tires are giving out now?
[20:55] FUTOSHI
    He has been pushing them hard.
[21:03] FUTOSHI
    He fell back to third.
[21:05] FUTOSHI
    He's braking early
     since his tires are worn out.
[21:08] KOTAROU
    This is bad. He's losing time.
[21:15] KOUYA
    Fourth...
[21:16] SAEKO
    But he can still pass them all
    before the finish line, right?
[21:26] TOSHIKI/ID
    I managed to secure the win today, but...
[21:39] KOTAROU
    Damn it.
[21:41] KOTAROU
    He was doing so well, too.
[21:45] FUTOSHI
    If only the tires had lasted longer.
[21:48] HARUKA
    The tires...
[21:54] SAEKO
    That was too bad.
[21:56] KOUYA
    Yeah.
