[00:06] Sakamichi     B-But, mom, I've explained it so many times. [00:11] Mom     You took your bike all the way to Mt. Fuji! [00:14] Sakamichi     Well, actually... [00:16] Mom     I heard you were going to Hakone,     but nobody told me you were going to Mt. Fuji! [00:19] Sakamichi     What? I did tell you. [00:21] Imaizumi     Excuse me, ma'am. My name is Imaizumi. [00:24] Naruko     Excuse the intrusion. I'm Naruko. [00:27] Naruko     Written "cry" and "child," then "sentence"     and "lucky," my name is Naruko Shoukichi. [00:31] Naruko     Onoda-kun did something super amazing. [00:35] Imaizumi     At the Inter-High, the year's biggest race... [00:38] Naruko     Onoda-kun won the general classification! [00:41] Imaizumi     He carried our wishes... [00:43] Naruko     ...to the finish line. [00:49] Mom     What on earth is the Inter-High? [00:51] Naruko     That's your question? [00:52] Imaizumi     This won't be easy. [00:55] Naruko     Basically, he climbed Mt. Fuji faster     than any other man in the country. [01:01] Mom     That is amazing. [01:03] Both     It worked. [01:05] Mom     That's why you slept for     three days after coming home. [01:08] Sakamichi     I was so exhausted, I couldn't move. [01:12] Naruko     Oh, right.

[01:39] Mom     Oh, didn't I tell you? [01:41] Mom     I was watching all through     the award ceremony. [01:44] Imaizumi     You were watching, and you     still don't understand?

[04:08] (Flashback) Miki     Did you take the bus today? [04:10] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Yeah. [04:11] (Flashback) Imaizumi     This place is pretty far from the bus stop. [04:13] (Flashback) Miki     But you'd do anything for love, right? [04:16] (Flashback) Imaizumi     What do you mean by love? [04:18] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Is it ready? [04:23] (Flashback) Toji     Hey. [04:24] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Hey, Kanzaki-san. [04:27] (Flashback) Toji     It's ready. [04:28] (Flashback) Toji     Your last one broke during the Inter-High. [04:32] (Flashback) Toji     It's got a new frame. [04:34] (Flashback) Toji     I stuck new components and wheels on it, too. [04:37] (Flashback) Toji     It's your new bike. [04:40] Imaizumi     Incredible. [04:41] Imaizumi     It's so direct. [04:43] Imaizumi     It's like the bike is responding to     my legs' movements without any error. [04:47] Imaizumi     And it's light, too. [04:49] Imaizumi     I'm already at 40 kph,     but it can go even faster. [04:52] (Flashback) Toji     This time I made the     components electric, too.

[05:04] Toji     It's like shifting gears using a switch. [05:07] (Flashback) Toji     On this battery, you'll be able     to ride about 1,500 kilometers. [05:10] (Flashback) Toji     It's not that one's better than the other, [05:13] (Flashback) Toji     but you're the type to manage your     body by shifting gears a lot. [05:18] (Flashback) Toji     Even when you're pushed to your limit,     you'll be able to accurately shift gears. [05:21] (Flashback) Toji     This'll be a huge advantage for you. [05:24] Imaizumi     There's zero delay when shifting gears. [05:29] Imaizumi     Amazing. [05:31] Imaizumi     It feels so strange to have the     gear shift at the lightest touch. [05:35] Imaizumi     But this bike can move! [05:38] Imaizumi     It feels awesome. [05:39] Imaizumi     Thank you, Kanzaki-san. [05:45] Imaizumi     Kinjou-san... [05:46] Imaizumi     I had a range of experiences     at the Inter-High. [05:49] Imaizumi     What I've felt since it ended is that     I've definitely become stronger. [05:56] Imaizumi     I'll become even stronger. [05:59] Imaizumi     I'll go to the Inter-High again next year. [06:02] Imaizumi     I'll kick aside the strong riders who     will gather from all over the country. [06:05] Imaizumi     I will, as Sohoku's ace! [06:10] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Um, hello. [06:13] (Flashback) Miki     Welcome, Onoda-kun. [06:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     H-Hello. Um, Kanzaki-san asked me to come. [06:20] (Flashback) Miki     Yeah, I heard. Come in. [06:26] (Flashback) Toji     Hey. [06:26] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Hello. Thanks for all your     help at the Inter-High. [06:31] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What did you want to talk about? [06:37] (Flashback) Toji     The chromoly frame out front's the one     you rode in the Inter-High, right? [06:41] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, yes. Thank you. [06:43] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Thanks to you, I... [06:44] (Flashback) Toji     Give it back. [06:45] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [06:49] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? I know I've been     borrowing it from you, but... [06:56] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But... [07:01] (Flashback) Toji     Ride this instead. [07:06] (Flashback) Toji     It's a carbon module cast. [07:08] (Flashback) Toji     The frame's made entirely from carbon fiber. [07:11] (Flashback) Toji     It weighs half as much as the     chromoly frame you've been riding. [07:15] Sakamichi     Half? [07:17] (Flashback) Miki     Even I can lift it easily. [07:20] (Flashback) Toji     Weight is key for climbers. [07:23] (Flashback) Toji     Take the next step forward, Onoda. [07:26] Sakamichi     Forward... [07:28] (Flashback) Toji     That bike will be able to meet your needs. [07:33] Sakamichi     What is this? [07:34] Sakamichi     It's so light. [07:37] Sakamichi     I feel like I'm floating     three centimeters above the ground. [07:39] Sakamichi     It's so fast. [07:42] (Flashback) Toji     This bike moves easily, far, and quickly. [07:46] (Flashback) Toji     You can really pedal when you need to. [07:48] (Flashback) Toji     It's the right bike for you. [07:50] Sakamichi     The pedals really do turn fast. [07:53] Sakamichi     I might even be able to pedal faster     than I did at the Inter-High. [08:01] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! Naruko-kun! [08:04] Imaizumi     Onoda! [08:04] Naruko     Onoda-kun! [08:06] Naruko     What's your new weapon? [08:08] Sakamichi     Kanzaki-san just gave it to me. [08:11] Naruko     A yellow carbon frame, huh? [08:14] Naruko     Pretty flashy and cool. [08:17] Imaizumi     How's the new bike? [08:19] Sakamichi     G-Good! [08:21] Sakamichi     Since the way you ride heavy bikes is     different from how you ride light bikes, [08:24] Sakamichi     it'll take some getting used to. [08:26] Sakamichi     But Kanzaki-san said once I get used     to it, I'll be dramatically faster. [08:33] Naruko     Hotshot's got a new frame and electric     components, and Onoda-kun's got a new bike? [08:39] Naruko     Looks like we had the same idea. [08:44] Sakamichi     What? [08:47] Sakamichi     What is this sound? Is that the wind? [08:49] Sakamichi     They're thick and huge. What are those? [08:52] Naruko     On hills, the lightness of     your wheels is important. [08:55] Naruko     I think Makishima-san said that. [08:59] Naruko     On flats, your wheel's wind     resistance is important. [09:02] Naruko     They negate the wind blowing toward     you and convert it into thrust. [09:06] Naruko     These are the ultimate wheels for sprinters... [09:09] Naruko     Carbon deep-rimmed wheels! [09:11] Sakamichi     Amazing. [09:14] Imaizumi     Why don't the three of us     go for a shakedown ride, then? [09:17] Imaizumi     Try to keep up, Naruko. [09:19] Naruko     Shut up. I'll be leading the group. [09:21] Naruko     I'll show you just how fast my new weapon is. [09:26] Naruko     Ready, and...

[11:38] Naruko     What? [11:40] Naruko     Makishima-san is? [11:42] Naruko     Yeah, I heard he was going to college. [11:45] Naruko     But why's he going overseas? [11:48] Tadokoro     His brother's living in England by himself. [11:53] Tadokoro     He's going to help him     while living abroad there. [11:57] Naruko     No one told me anything about that! [11:58] Tadokoro     No one told me, either. [12:00] Tadokoro     We just heard the news, too. [12:03] Tadokoro     Their school year starts     in September over there. [12:05] Naruko     September? You mean this September? [12:08] Tadokoro     Yeah. [12:09] Tadokoro     I did think he was spending a lot of time     in the library since the Inter-High ended. [12:13] Tadokoro     Apparently, he was finishing all     his credits here ahead of schedule [12:17] Tadokoro     so he could go to college there. [12:19] Naruko     What? [12:20] Naruko     Are you serious? [12:22] Naruko     What about the race to send     off the third-years, then? [12:26] Naruko     What about his bike? [12:35] Sakamichi     Makishima-san! [12:37] Sakamichi     Are you on your way to practice now? [12:44] Makishima     That bike seems to be working out well. [12:47] Makishima     It's a good fit for you. [12:49] Sakamichi     Oh, I'm not nearly good enough for it yet. [12:53] Sakamichi     I haven't tapped into my full potential yet. [12:56] Sakamichi     I still have old habits to shake. [13:00] Makishima     Imagine sliding your feet forward when your     toes are applying torque to the crank. [13:06] Makishima     You'll move farther on a     lighter frame that way. [13:10] Sakamichi     Slide my feet? [13:14] Sakamichi     Oh, I see. [13:15] Sakamichi     Thank you. I'll give it a try. [13:27] Makishima     Onoda, I'm on my way up Minegayama. [13:32] Makishima     Want to join me? [13:40] Sakamichi     I just came back from Minegayama. [13:43] Sakamichi     Would it be all right     if we rode another time? [13:50] Makishima     Yeah. [14:06] Sakamichi     Actually, can I come with you after all? [14:10] Sakamichi     I got a strange feeling in my chest. [14:14] Sakamichi     Let's go up Minegayama together. [14:17] Makishima     This kid... [14:19] Makishima     I can't tell if he's slow or sharp. [14:22] Makishima     Yeah, let's go! [14:32] Makishima     You've gotten faster. [14:37] Sakamichi     Yeah. Um, Makishima-san, you're cool, too. [14:44] Makishima     "Scary" is good enough for me. [14:47] Makishima     Sakamichi! [14:48] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [14:52] Makishima     Hey, Sakamichi! [14:54] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [15:01] Makishima     Do you enjoy riding your bike? [15:05] Sakamichi     Yes! [15:15] Sakamichi     Lately, I've been talking with Naruko-kun     and Imaizumi-kun about how we'll [15:19] Sakamichi     "surpass the third-years     by the time they graduate." [15:24] Makishima     That sounded just like him. [15:25] Sakamichi     What? Really? [15:27] Sakamichi     You beat me again at the end today, [15:29] Sakamichi     but I'm hoping to get stronger     by the time you graduate. [15:34] Sakamichi     At least, I hope I do. [15:38] Sakamichi     Will you race me again then? [15:46] Makishima     I'm always riding with you. [15:49] Makishima     When you think of it that way,     we can race anytime. [15:53] Makishima     On zigzagging climbs, on straight     roads that stretch on forever, [15:59] Makishima     on overgrown country roads... [16:02] Makishima     Next year and the year after,     I'll always be riding in front of you. [16:09] Makishima     So pass me. [16:11] Makishima     Become stronger. [16:19] Makishima     We're counting on you to     carry our Sohoku, Sakamichi. [16:24] Sakamichi     Makishima-san... [16:32] Kinjou     I'm happy to have served as your captain. [16:37] Kinjou     You endured hard practices     and rode well at races. [16:42] Kinjou     I'm truly grateful to all of you. [16:45] Kinjou     Thank you. [16:47] Imaizumi     It was nothing. [16:48] Naruko     Same goes to you, Captain. [16:50] All     Thank you! [16:54] Tadokoro     We really are blessed. [16:57] Tadokoro     I had an awesome time. [16:59] Kinjou     Teshima... [17:00] Teshima     Yes, sir. [17:02] Kinjou     You're the next captain of the     Sohoku Bicycle Racing Club. [17:06] Kinjou     Second-year, Teshima Junta! [17:08] Teshima     Yes, sir! [17:09] Kinjou     Aoyagi Hajime! [17:11] Aoyagi     Yes, sir. [17:11] Kinjou     You're the vice-captain. [17:13] Aoyagi     Yes, sir. [17:14] Tadokoro     The rest is up to you guys. [17:17] Kinjou     Ride. [17:19] Kinjou     Fight for every second. [17:21] Kinjou     Next year's Inter-High has already begun. [17:24] All     Yes, sir! [17:29] Teshima     Sohoku won. We beat reigning     champions, Hakone Academy. [17:34] Teshima     And at the same time, we became burdened... [17:37] Teshima     ...with the weight, responsibility,     and pressure of being the winning team [17:40] Teshima     of the Inter-High. [17:43] Teshima     At the next Inter-High—no, [17:45] Teshima     starting with our next race,     the other teams will be gunning for us. [17:50] Teshima     We must leap past them and win again. [17:53] Teshima     No matter the circumstances. [17:57] Teshima     After all, at the next Inter-High,     we'll be riding with single-digit tags... [18:04] Teshima     Because we are the champions. [18:10] Teshima     Come. Let me see how much stronger     you became during the Inter-High. [18:14] Imaizumi     Let me see? [18:16] Naruko     Interesting. Does this     mean a race, perm guy? [18:19] Teshima     Didn't you hear me? [18:20] Teshima     That's what I said. [18:22] Teshima     To the traffic signal at the     end of this 15-kilometer flat. [18:26] Teshima     Let's race! [18:29] Naruko     He accelerated. [18:30] Naruko     Is he trying to pull ahead here? [18:32] Imaizumi     No, Teshima-san is a strategist. [18:34] Imaizumi     He could be plotting to make us wear     out our legs by chasing after him. [18:45] Naruko     The quiet one jumped ahead. [18:47] Naruko     Their switch was ultra smooth. [18:49] Naruko     Their teamwork is still going strong. [18:51] Naruko     No... [18:52] Imaizumi     Naruko! [18:53] Naruko     Yeah! [18:54] Imaizumi     They're trying to pull ahead     of us with brute force! [18:59] Imaizumi     They knew we'd expect them to     strategize since they're not strong, [19:02] Imaizumi     so they did the opposite. [19:05] Imaizumi     Let's accelerate at full speed! [19:07] Naruko     I know! [19:08] Naruko     Can we close this gap? [19:09] Imaizumi     We will catch them! [19:14] Naruko     I must be stupid. I didn't notice. [19:16] Naruko     I didn't even pay any attention to it. [19:17] Naruko     Now that I get a closer look, their legs... [19:21] Naruko     Their legs are nothing like     they were at the training camp! [19:23] Naruko     Those are the legs of someone     who's practiced a ton! [19:31] Tadokoro     Will the first-years catch them? [19:33] Kinjou     I'm not so sure. [19:35] Kinjou     While they were looking     toward the Inter-High, [19:38] Kinjou     Teshima and Aoyagi never stopped practicing. [19:41] Kinjou     And they've gotten stronger. [19:45] Kinjou     Especially Aoyagi. [19:46] Kinjou     His abilities as a sprinter are blossoming. [19:53] Teshima     Aoyagi... [19:55] Teshima     What percent are you at right now? [19:56] Aoyagi     70%. [19:58] Teshima     Then let's go to 100% for the last two     kilometers and pull ahead of them. [20:03] Aoyagi     Got it. [20:20] Teshima     What's wrong, Naruko? [20:21] Teshima     Are those deep-rimmed wheels just for show? [20:27] Teshima     Imaizumi, don't think     you'll be the ace forever. [20:32] Teshima     You're not strong enough yet. [20:34] Teshima     We will—Sohoku will become even stronger! [20:37] Teshima     We are the second generation of Sohoku! [20:39] Both     Yes, sir! [20:44] Tadokoro     Looks like the second-years won. [20:47] Tadokoro     Check it out. They look frustrated. [20:51] Kinjou     Thinking they were better [20:53] Kinjou     for even a moment let their biggest     chance slip away from them. [20:57] Kinjou     That's part of road racing, too. [21:00] Tadokoro     But... [21:02] Tadokoro     I'm most worried about him. [21:05] Tadokoro     Onoda... [21:08] Sakamichi     I can't catch up. I can't catch up... [21:11] Sakamichi     I need to work harder. [21:14] Sakamichi     I can't be weak. I can't be weak. [21:23] Sakamichi     I can't be weak... [21:31] Sakamichi     Makishima-san... [21:33] (Flashback) Makishima     Become stronger. [21:37] Sakamichi     How can I become stronger? [23:25] Teshima     It's tea time. [23:29] Aoyagi     Junta. [23:29] Teshima     I almost forgot.

[03:34] Teshima     Is this about Makishima-san? [03:36] Sakamichi     Huh? [03:38] (Flashback) Kinjou     Makishima is quitting the team today. [03:43] Sakamichi     N-No... [03:45] Teshima     Really? That's fine, then. [03:47] Teshima     It's dangerous to practice     while lost in thought. [03:50] Teshima     Be careful. [03:52] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [03:53] Teshima     Now that Makishima-san is gone,     you're Sohoku's only climber. [04:03] Naruko     Shall we sprint to the top, like usual? [04:07] All     Yeah! [04:09] Naruko     It's just a 200 meter slope. [04:11] Naruko     That's short enough to sprint up. [04:14] Imaizumi     Don't push yourself too hard. [04:16] Sakamichi     A slope? Climbing? [04:19] Sakamichi     That's right. I... [04:22] Sakamichi     I have to work harder. [04:32] Sakamichi     My power... [04:34] Sakamichi     It's no use. I can't get any power. [04:46] Teshima     Onoda... [04:49] Sakamichi     Sorry, Teshima-san! Er, Captain! [04:52] Sakamichi     You must be here to ask me what I'm     doing when I'm supposed to be a climber. [04:56] Sakamichi     I... I'll get my head back     on straight and climb! [05:00] Teshima     No, it's fine. Let's take it slow. [05:02] Sakamichi     Huh? [05:04] Teshima     The weather's nice. [05:07] Teshima     Does it hurt, Onoda? [05:09] Teshima     Despite how he looked,     Makishima-san was a nice guy. [05:14] Teshima     When we were first-years... [05:16] (Flashback) Makishima     You want me to give you tips on climbing? [05:20] (Flashback) Makishima     Well... [05:23] (Flashback) Makishima     Swing your bike back and forth really hard. [05:27] (Flashback) Tadokoro     You're the only one who can do that! [05:29] (Flashback) Makishima     Oh, really? [05:32] Teshima     He was always kind. [05:35] Sakamichi     I still... [05:37] Sakamichi     I still had a lot to learn! [05:41] Sakamichi     So why... [05:44] Teshima     If you're hurting, you can rest. [05:47] Teshima     Forcing yourself to practice     now won't help you. [05:50] Teshima     Remember what he said. [05:51] Teshima     When you aim for the top,     you learn where you stand. [05:55] Teshima     Choosing your course of action based     on how others see you or think of you [05:59] Teshima     won't get you anywhere. [06:03] Teshima     I'm weak. [06:05] Teshima     Naruko and Imaizumi are strong. [06:07] Teshima     They fought as equals alongside the     third-years during the Inter-High. [06:11] Teshima     Aoyagi and I still don't stand a     chance against them in sprints. [06:14] Teshima     Even though I'm the captain,     I'm the weakest one. [06:17] Teshima     I'm not strong mentally, either. [06:19] Teshima     But I know that. [06:23] Teshima     What I need to do is make up for     those weaknesses little by little. [06:27] Teshima     That's where I'll find my breakthrough. [06:29] Teshima     That's what I believe. [06:31] Teshima     You can rest. You can worry, Onoda. [06:35] Teshima     Even that can be a way to move forward. [06:38] Teshima     Believe in yourself. You'll find the light. [06:42] Teshima     Didn't Makishima-san entrust     his soul to you, too? [06:52] Sakamichi     Yeah. [06:54] Announce     AIR Airlines flight 1602 is... [06:57] Makishima     Jeez. I'm about to get on a plane. [07:01] Makishima     Why'd you have to call     me last minute, Toudou? [07:06] Toudou     My friend's embarking on a voyage. [07:08] Toudou     I thought I should congratulate you. [07:10] Toudou     Besides, you're alone, aren't you? [07:11] Makishima     Well, yeah. [07:13] Makishima     I told them to practice if     they had time to see me off. [07:19] Toudou     We lost this year, but we'll     win next year, Maki-chan. [07:22] Toudou     Even after I graduate, [07:24] Toudou     Hakone will have plenty of other strong     climbers like Kuroda and Manami. [07:30] Toudou     You've only got Four-Eyes, right? [07:33] Toudou     No matter how strong he is,     he can't win by himself. [07:37] Makishima     No, we've got climbers. [07:41] Toudou     Really? Are they strong? [07:43] Toudou     Do they have good instincts? [07:48] Makishima     Not at all. [07:49] Toudou     What? [07:50] Makishima     But maybe that's Sohoku's type. [07:56] Makishima     No talent and no instinct... [07:59] Makishima     So he climbs through sheer effort. [08:10] Teshima     Makishima-san said he could make this     climb in six minutes at his fastest. [08:17] Teshima     He's a monster, but... [08:21] Teshima     I'll catch up to him, even if it's     only by one second, one centimeter! [08:26] (Flashback) Makishima     Teshima, you're a climber. [08:28] (Flashback) Teshima     What? [08:29] (Flashback) Makishima     Tricks don't work on climbs. [08:32] (Flashback) Makishima     Unlike flats, you can't hide behind     other riders to get out of the wind. [08:38] (Flashback) Makishima     Your weakness can't be overcome     with knowledge or technique. [08:45] (Flashback) Makishima     So climb. [08:48] Makishima     Keep climbing until your legs stop moving. [08:52] Teshima     I'll do it. [08:53] Teshima     Even if it's impossible,     I'll push myself to the limit. [08:58] Teshima     I can at least push myself     as close as possible! [09:02] Teshima     I will become stronger! [09:14] Teshima     Yesterday my best time was eight minutes. [09:19] Teshima     Six minutes is still far away. [09:22] Higashida     Teshima, I heard the news. [09:25] Teshima     Higashida. [09:26] Higashida     You're the captain of the bike club now? [09:28] Teshima     Yeah. [09:30] Higashida     The team's strong, right?     I heard you won nationals. [09:33] Higashida     That must be a lot of pressure. [09:35] Teshima     Every day I feel like puking. [09:37] Teshima     The first-years are so strong,     I can't keep up. [09:40] Teshima     How's the volleyball club? [09:42] Higashida     Unfortunately, we only made     it to the second round. [09:44] Higashida     Because of that,     our practices are hellish now. [09:47] Higashida     How about you? [09:48] Teshima     It's hard. [09:50] Teshima     It makes me realize the difference     between being made to do something [09:52] Teshima     and making yourself do something. [09:54] Teshima     I was just coming up with the     lineup for our next race. SIGN    Training Sprinting Climbing Long Rides SIGN    Practice Individual Morning, Night SIGN    September October [09:57] Teshima     There's a lot to do as the captain. [10:00] Teshima     Practice, paperwork, and other stuff. [10:03] Teshima     When I think about how     Kinjou-senpai used to do this, [10:05] Teshima     it makes me realize how tough he really was. [10:07] Higashida     Want to go karaoke after practice, then? [10:11] Teshima     What? [10:12] Higashida     I've been planning it since I     heard you became the captain. [10:16] Higashida     Let me hear that Teshima medley again. [10:20] Higashida     I got together the guys we rode     with in middle school, too. [10:24] Higashida     Everyone wants to congratulate you. [10:27] Higashida     You once said you were quitting, [10:29] Higashida     and now you're the captain of     the team that won nationals. [10:36] (Flashback) Higashida     Teshima! [10:37] (Flashback) Higashida     Why? You can't quit! [10:40] (Flashback) Higashida     Don't you like riding your bike? [10:42] (Flashback) Student     We swore we'd win together. [10:46] Higashida     Oh, right. [10:47] Higashida     I invited Iwase-chan from the     girls' volleyball team, [10:52] Higashida     who you said you were interested in. [10:54] Higashida     When I told her about your medley of     impressions, she said yes right away. [11:07] Teshima     Sorry, but I don't have time. [11:11] Higashida     Really? [11:14] Higashida     That's too bad. [11:16] Teshima     Thanks. [11:19] Teshima     Sorry, Higashida. I wish I could go. [11:23] Teshima     But when I closed my eyes, I saw... [11:30] Teshima     ...Onoda at the Inter-High. [11:34] Teshima     Am I stupid? [11:37] Teshima     But my heart belongs to the Inter-High. [11:43] Teshima     We'll stand there again.     We are the champions. [11:48] Teshima     We'll ride through three searingly     hot days and stand on that stage. SIGN    Minegayama Hill Climb [11:55] Teshima     These contain essential information     and regulations for our next race. [12:00] Teshima     Could you hand them out to the first-years? [12:02] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [12:03] Imaizumi     Teshima-san's in a good mood. [12:07] Teshima     How has Onoda been doing? [12:09] Imaizumi     He stopped falling. [12:11] Imaizumi     He's still slow, but he seems to     be getting used to his new bike. [12:17] Teshima     That's great. [12:20] Teshima     Little by little is fine. [12:21] Teshima     Let him know I said that. [12:24] Teshima     Little by little... [12:25] Teshima     Little by little, it's taking shape. [12:29] Teshima     With the third-years leaving,     the lineup has changed. [12:33] Teshima     Makishima-san is gone, but... [12:38] Aoyagi     Junta... [12:39] Teshima     Aoyagi. [12:41] Teshima     How did yesterday go? [12:43] Aoyagi     I attacked just before the 200 meter mark. [12:51] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I knew you'd come, so I've     been saving my strength. [12:53] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Pedal with all you've got, Aoyagi! [12:56] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Yes, sir! [13:08] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I won. [13:10] (Flashback) Teshima     All right! That's great! [13:12] (Flashback) Aoyagi     But I've still only won once. [13:14] (Flashback) Teshima     That's fine. [13:16] Teshima     Imaizumi, Naruko, Onoda, Aoyagi... [13:20] Teshima     The second generation of Sohoku is     moving forward, one step at a time. [13:28] Fuku     Hakone Academy's next captain     will be Izumida Touichirou. [13:34] Izumida     Yes, sir. [13:35] Arakita     Jeez, this ceremony is a pain in the ass. [13:38] Arakita     All you need to do is win. [13:42] Toudou     With a man who went through that bitter     experience at the Inter-High as captain, [13:45] Toudou     we can't lose. [13:46] Shinkai     You're a perfect fit, Izumida. [13:48] Fuku     The next generation of Hakone Academy     will led by the three second-years. [13:55] Toudou     Three? [13:57] Fuku     The vice-captain will be     second-year Kuroda Yukinari. [14:02] Kuroda     This year I lost to Manami in the     qualifier despite our promise. [14:10] Kuroda     But next year will be different. [14:12] Kuroda     Touichirou, let's go wild     at the next Inter-High. [14:17] Izumida     Yuki! [14:27] Fuku     Captain Izumida and vice-captain Kuroda... [14:31] Fuku     These two were obvious     choices for their positions. [14:34] Fuku     But I'm surprised you recommended     him for the third, Shinkai. [14:39] Shinkai     He's promising. [14:41] Shinkai     Don't you agree? [14:45] Shinkai     From Chiba Minami Middle School,     he moved here for his parents' work. [14:50] Shinkai     Apparently he was on the same middle school     team as Sohoku's next captain, Teshima-kun. [14:56] Ashikiba     Excuse me, Shinkai-san. [15:01] Ashikiba     My jersey's a little small. [15:05] Shinkai     Second-year Ashikiba Takuto... [15:07] Shinkai     He's Hakone Academy's tallest     member ever, at 202 centimeters. [15:13] Shinkai     Ashikiba, what was Teshima-kun     like in middle school? [15:18] Ashikiba     Him? [15:21] Ashikiba     He's good. [15:22] Fuku     Good, huh? [15:25] Ashikiba     Yeah, at karaoke. [15:28] Ashikiba     His medley of impressions     is truly exceptional. [15:32] Ashikiba     Ow... [15:36] Ashikiba     Heave-ho...

[15:47] Ashikiba     A race? I can race already? [15:52] Ashikiba     Okay. If that's what you want,     I'll give it everything I've got. [15:56] Ashikiba     Basically, you want me to     beat him in that race, right? [16:03] Shinkai     No, you don't have to worry about that. [16:07] Shinkai     Someone else will be     participating in that race. SIGN    Meeting In Progress Do Not Enter [16:13] Fuku     Our methods weren't wrong. [16:18] Fuku     Arakita and Izumida pulled ahead of them. [16:21] Fuku     Shinkai pulled us through the flats. [16:24] Fuku     Then we sent our climbers. [16:28] Fuku     Toudou kept Makishima in check,     leaving Manami and me. [16:35] Fuku     Almost everything went according to plan. [16:37] Fuku     But Sohoku faced problem after problem. [16:42] Fuku     Their ace, Kinjou, was injured. [16:44] Fuku     He fell behind immediately. [16:47] Fuku     Their ace switched to an     inexperienced first-year. [16:52] Fuku     We had an overwhelming advantage. [16:54] Arakita     But we lost! [16:56] Toudou     But not because we underestimated them. [16:59] Arakita     What? [17:00] Arakita     We totally underestimated them. [17:03] Arakita     Although I can't imagine     there's any way Fuku-chan did. [17:08] Arakita     I want to say we rode as hard as we could. [17:12] Arakita     It was our last race. [17:15] Arakita     When I hear we lost by     five or ten centimeters... [17:19] Arakita     In road racing, the difference     between first and second [17:21] Arakita     is the difference between heaven and earth. [17:23] Arakita     On top of that, it was the Inter-High. [17:25] Arakita     That's on a whole different level. [17:28] Arakita     And that inexperienced little     airhead didn't understand that. [17:35] Fuku     No, he gave everything he had. [17:39] Fuku     He understood how important it was and     rode with the greatest strength he had. [17:46] Fuku     We lost because... [17:49] Fuku     No, because I was naïve in my predictions. [17:56] Fuku     Number 176, Sohoku first-year Onoda... [18:00] Fuku     A total amateur. [18:02] Fuku     Though his face didn't show a     shred of competitive spirit, [18:06] Fuku     hidden inside him was a determined     and indomitable spirit. [18:12] Fuku     And that was enough to beat Hakone     Academy's greatest climber, Manami. [18:18] Fuku     Manami said he was dangerous,     but I couldn't predict it. [18:22] Fuku     That was only natural. [18:25] Fuku     He was the unpredictable element that     Sohoku created during that race. [18:32] Fuku     That's not something which     can be made on purpose. [18:34] Fuku     But it was the only way they     could take down the champions. [18:41] Shinkai     In other words, that's what     Kinjou was going for. [18:47] Shinkai     Jin-kun said the same thing. [18:49] (Flashback) Shinkai     Do you have a plan? [18:50] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Nope. [18:53] (Flashback) Tadokoro     For us, being connected to     each other is important. [18:57] Toudou     That four-eyes... [19:00] Arakita     Onoda-chan...

[20:05] Sakamichi     I can't do it. [20:06] Sakamichi     I was able to ride in the Inter-High     because the rest of the team was with me. [20:11] Sakamichi     I'm even weak during practice.

[04:28] Ashikiba     Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. [04:33] Ashikiba     Also known as the Choral Symphony. [04:35] Ashikiba     I'm so clichéd. It's not     even the end of the year. [04:41] Ashikiba     I'd been placed under house arrest indefinitely. [04:45] Ashikiba     But a race... now, I'm riding in a race! [04:49] Ashikiba     I will take first place. [04:52] Ashikiba     First place... [04:56] Ashikiba     ...is righteous! [05:01] Imaizumi     Teshima-san, there's something bothering me. [05:05] Imaizumi     There's a Hakone Academy second-year     named Ashikiba riding in the race. [05:09] Imaizumi     I saw his name on the participant list. [05:11] Sakamichi     What? Hakone Academy? [05:14] Teshima     Seems that way. [05:15] Imaizumi     You're a second-year, too. [05:17] Imaizumi     Do you know him, Teshima-san? [05:19] Teshima     Yeah, I know him well. [05:21] Teshima     We used to ride on the same team. [05:26] Ashikiba     The symphony's playing inside my head. [05:31] Ashikiba     I don't know who said it,     but someone called the way I ride... [05:32] Rider 3     He's so fast! [05:36] Teshima     He's coming. [05:38] Ashikiba     Metronome Dancing! [05:41] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy! [05:43] Imaizumi     So this is the second-year, Ashikiba. [05:45] Imaizumi     He's huge. He's bigger than me! [05:50] Ashikiba     I caught up, Sohoku High. [05:55] Imaizumi     He's not short of breath,     even though he rode up from the back. [05:59] Imaizumi     And what's with his frame? [06:03] Imaizumi     Like shoes, frames are designed     to match the size of your body. [06:08] Imaizumi     But no matter how large the frame gets,     the size of the tires doesn't change. [06:13] Imaizumi     This guy's frame... [06:16] Imaizumi     I've never seen anything so huge. [06:19] Imaizumi     It makes his tires look smaller. [06:22] Imaizumi     It's like he's riding a small-wheeled bike. [06:26] Ashikiba     So you're Onoda. [06:31] Sakamichi     Yes. [06:36] Ashikiba     So you're Onoda. [06:38] Both     He corrected himself! [06:40] Ashikiba     I've heard about you. [06:42] Ashikiba     You'll race up any hill with     your extraordinary cadence. [06:47] Sakamichi     And he's pretending he didn't! [06:48] Ashikiba     And you're another first-year... [06:51] Imaizumi     Yeah. [06:52] Ashikiba     The red bean, Naruko. [06:56] Sakamichi     He got it wrong with that     smug look on his face! [06:58] Ashikiba     I've heard about you. [07:00] Imaizumi     There's nothing red about me... [07:00] Ashikiba     By climbing with your exceptional     grit and sprinter's legs, [07:02] Imaizumi     Can't he tell by looking? [07:04] Ashikiba     you caught up to Hakone Academy. [07:04] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun doesn't seem     like a bean to me. [07:06] Ashikiba     Then you dropped out of the     race in heroic fashion. [07:08] Imaizumi     It's hard to call him out since he's older. [07:10] Imaizumi     Maybe this guy's just an airhead? [07:12] Sakamichi     I kind of feel bad for him. [07:15] Imaizumi     Um, can I offer a correction? [07:19] Ashikiba     Huh? Yeah, go ahead. [07:21] Ashikiba     No, wait. [07:23] Ashikiba     I haven't said anything     that needs correcting. [07:26] Sakamichi     What? [07:27] Imaizumi     I can't tell him now! [07:29] Imaizumi     Sohoku has another first-year. [07:32] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun's starting to get mad. [07:35] Ashikiba     I know. [07:37] Ashikiba     Don't underestimate Hakone     Academy's information network. [07:39] Imaizumi     It's me. [07:41] Ashikiba     The silky-haired Sugimoto Terufumi. [07:44] Imaizumi     That's right, Sugimoto Teru... [07:47] Sugimoto     Hello! [07:50] Imaizumi     I worked pretty hard at the Inter-High... [07:53] Imaizumi     This is a real shock. [07:55] Ashikiba     Did Sohoku not bring all their members? [07:59] Teshima     Ashikiba! [08:02] Teshima     How have you been? [08:05] Ashikiba     Good. [08:07] Teshima     Are you still playing the piano? [08:10] Ashikiba     Sometimes. [08:12] Teshima     I heard you joined Hakone Academy. [08:15] Ashikiba     I passed their exam. [08:18] Teshima     We used to ride together a lot. [08:21] Ashikiba     Yeah. [08:23] Ashikiba     Jun-chan... [08:25] Teshima     Shikiba... [08:33] (Flashback) Teshima     Shikiba, that's amazing. [08:35] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Since my fingers are so long,     they said I'd be good at the piano. [08:39] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I can play J-Pop songs, too, like Hira Ken. [08:41] (Flashback) Teshima     Seriously? [08:52] (Flashback) Teshima     Do you know what a road bike is? [08:54] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Yeah, those thin ones. [08:58] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Wow. [09:01] (Flashback) Teshima     I wanted to try it out after watching a DVD. [09:06] (Flashback) Teshima     Shikiba, want to join me? [09:08] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It's so cool. [09:10] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It's like an instrument. [09:13] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It's so thin and shiny. [09:15] (Flashback) Ashikiba     There's nothing unnecessary on it. [09:19] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I wonder if it makes a nice sound. [09:22] (Flashback) Teshima     The ratchets on the wheels will     send shivers down your spine. [09:28] (Flashback) Ashikiba     This sound, this energy... [09:31] (Flashback) Ashikiba     This vibration! [09:32] (Flashback) Ashikiba     This is amazing. [09:33] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It truly is an instrument! [09:37] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm thinking about doing     this pretty seriously. [09:42] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm going to race internationally. [09:44] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Internationally? [09:47] (Flashback) Teshima     Just kidding. [09:48] (Flashback) Teshima     Are you gonna laugh because      I'm dreaming too big? [09:52] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Of course not. [09:53] (Flashback) Ashikiba     That's amazing. It's cool. [09:56] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You have my support. [10:00] (Flashback) Teshima     Let's ride! [10:02] (Flashback) Teshima     I'll become the best in the world! [10:05] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Jun-chan! [10:07] (Flashback) Teshima     Let's become the best together. [10:09] (Flashback) Teshima     You'll be right there with me. [10:14] Ashikiba     Jun-chan... [10:15] Teshima     Shikiba. [10:18] Teshima     Honestly, I was shaken when     I saw the participant list... [10:22] Teshima     When I learned you were     on Hakone Academy's team. [10:26] Ashikiba     When I heard you became     the captain of Sohoku, [10:32] Ashikiba     I thought you were worthy of the position. [10:35] Ashikiba     I knew you were good enough to do it. [10:44] Teshima     Do you remember how I told you     we'd become champions together? [10:48] Ashikiba     Yeah, of course. [10:50] Teshima     But I'm the captain of Sohoku now. [10:55] Teshima     In other words, their pillar. [10:56] Teshima     Now I have to fight against you     and Hakone Academy, Ashikiba! [11:03] Ashikiba     Same here... [11:06] Ashikiba     Since I'm Hakone Academy's next ace. [11:10] Imaizumi     Their next ace? [11:17] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy second-year Ashikiba... [11:20] Imaizumi     This guy will be their ace next year? [11:26] Imaizumi     Since he's so tall, the distance from his hip joint     to his knees is exceptionally long. [11:31] Imaizumi     Every time he turns the pedals,     I can hear the wind whistle. [11:34] Imaizumi     No, wait! It wasn't making     that sound a minute ago. [11:36] Imaizumi     Which means he's started     pedaling at full power. [11:43] Sakamichi     There's so much pressure. [11:46] Teshima     Shikiba... [11:47] Ashikiba     Jun-chan... [11:49] Ashikiba     Jun-chan, I don't want to     crush the team you made. [11:53] Ashikiba     I wish I could join it instead. [11:56] Ashikiba     But I owe the seniors of Hakone Academy... [12:01] Ashikiba     I told them I would win this race! [12:05] Sakamichi     How is he dancing like that? [12:07] Sakamichi     His body's swaying back and forth! [12:08] Imaizumi     He's accelerating so quickly! [12:10] Imaizumi     In just a single step, too! [12:18] Tadokoro     Thanks for the ride. [12:20] Naruko     Old man, your elbows and ass are in the way! [12:23] Tadokoro     What are you complaining about? [12:25] Tadokoro     Look at Aoyagi. [12:26] Tadokoro     He's sitting quietly, without saying a word. [12:29] Naruko     He never says anything! [12:31] Sugimoto     I'm sitting quietly, too. [12:34] Naruko     You're just too big! [12:34] Driver     You boys sure make a lot of noise. [12:35] Tadokoro     Shut up! You're just... [12:37] Kinjou     Teshima... [12:39] Kinjou     It's hard to imagine Hakone Academy would send      someone just to scope out the competition. [12:44] Kinjou     They'll be going for the win. [12:45] Kinjou     Expect them to challenge us. [12:48] Kinjou     Onoda's not doing well. [12:50] Kinjou     He switched to a new bike, but he's     still only drawing out 30% of his power. [12:56] Kinjou     Probably because of Makishima. [13:01] Kinjou     As a fellow climber, he provided     moral support, and he quit the club early. [13:06] Kinjou     But regretting that forever     won't change anything. [13:09] Kinjou     He has to move forward despite it.     That's part of road racing. [13:14] Kinjou     If you don't move forward,     you'll be left behind. [13:17] Driver     Kinjou-kun, [13:19] Driver     as their former captain, which of the     Sohoku members do you think will win? [13:23] Driver     Will it be Onoda-kun again? [13:25] Driver     Or Imaizumi-kun? [13:26] Kinjou     I don't know. [13:29] Kinjou     Personally speaking, [13:31] Kinjou     I think the Hakone Academy second-year     on the participant list could win. [13:39] Kinjou     I think this race could determine the     future of Sohoku's new generation. [13:45] Sugimoto     But we're the champions. [13:48] Sugimoto     Champions would never... [13:56] Rider 4     Damn it. [13:57] Rider 4     I ran from the pack to try to win,      but someone's catching up. [14:01] Rider 4     And he's huge! [14:03] Rider 4     There's someone right behind him. [14:05] Rider 4     It's Sohoku. [14:06] Rider 4     Their captain, Teshima! [14:08] Teshima     Ashikiba! [14:10] Imaizumi     Teshima-san is fast! [14:12] Imaizumi     We couldn't even respond, but he reacted     instantly and kept up with him. [14:18] Imaizumi     The Teshima-san I know would've already... [14:21] Imaizumi     What is this? [14:23] Imaizumi     He's nothing like he was     at the training camp. [14:26] Imaizumi     Has he always been this fast? [14:43] Ashikiba     Jun-chan! [14:44] Teshima     Shikiba! [14:45] Teshima     We're the champions! [14:47] Teshima     We won't let you take the Minegayama title! [14:49] Ashikiba     You really are amazing, Jun-chan! [14:53] Ashikiba     The seniors who scoped out      the CSC training camp [14:56] Ashikiba     said second-year Teshima was nothing special. [15:00] Ashikiba     I couldn't tell them, but I     didn't think that was possible. [15:04] Ashikiba     I'll make them revise their evaluation later. [15:07] Ashikiba     Are you ready to go? [15:10] Ashikiba     There's only four kilometers left. SIGN    Distance to Finish Line [15:14] Ashikiba     We used to climb together a lot and     get frustrated when we had to stop. SIGN    Ahead [15:20] Ashikiba     On Minegayama's iconic... [15:23] Ashikiba     Kabesaka! [15:27] Ashikiba     Amazing. [15:28] Ashikiba     I can hear Beethoven's Fifth     playing inside my head! [15:38] Teshima     Ashikiba's good. [15:41] Teshima     He's gotten way better since middle school. [15:45] Teshima     He's certainly on the level of an ace. [15:47] Teshima     He could still go harder. [15:49] Teshima     But I'm Sohoku's captain! [15:53] Teshima     I can't let him pull away! [16:02] Imaizumi     Naruko lost speed on this hill     during the first-year race. [16:07] Imaizumi     Why do I feel so hot? [16:11] Imaizumi     Just how hard did he work? [16:15] Imaizumi     The way Teshima-san is riding is enchanting. [16:21] Sakamichi     T-Teshima-san is amazing. [16:25] Imaizumi     Onoda... [16:26] Sakamichi     He's amazing. [16:29] Sakamichi     Amazing! [16:31] Teshima     Ashikiba, you always overestimate me. [16:37] Teshima     "You're amazing, Jun-chan. You're worthy." [16:41] Teshima     It makes me happy to hear that,     but it's just not true. [16:44] Teshima     I'm weak. [16:45] Teshima     I'm clinging to my handlebars,     hanging onto legs that feel like [16:50] Teshima     they're about to stop, and my heart's     beating out of my chest. [16:55] Teshima     Honestly, I'm not on your level. [16:58] Teshima     But Ashikiba, I won't lose! [17:01] Teshima     Because I'm... [17:03] Teshima     The captain of Sohoku! [17:06] Imaizumi     Two kilometers left! [17:09] Ashikiba     Beethoven's Fifth won't stop playing! [17:18] Teshima     Metronome Dancing! This is it! [17:22] Teshima     Did I reach my limit? [17:25] Teshima     Keep fighting, Junta! [17:26] Teshima     You're here because Makishima-san     told you to climb! [17:39] Teshima     Shikiba! [17:41] Tadokoro     He caught up! [17:44] Ashikiba     You caught up again. [17:46] Ashikiba     Jun-chan, you really are amazing. [17:48] Naruko     That Hakone Academy guy is huge! [17:50] Naruko     I've never seen him before! [17:51] Naruko     Who is he? [17:53] Aoyagi     Classmates? [17:54] (Flashback) Teshima     Yeah, from middle school. [17:57] (Flashback) Teshima     He's tall and kind. [18:01] (Flashback) Teshima     He's always complimenting other people. [18:04] (Flashback) Teshima     We used to ride together a lot. [18:07] (Flashback) Teshima     I've never told you about him before. [18:10] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Your teammate, then? [18:12] (Flashback) Teshima     We promised to become champions together. [18:15] (Flashback) Teshima     But... [18:19] (Flashback) Teshima     Unfortunately, today he's my opponent. [18:22] Aoyagi     A battle against a friend... [18:24] Aoyagi     He's steeled his resolve as the new captain. [18:29] Aoyagi     But I can tell... [18:31] Aoyagi     Junta's approaching his limit. [18:51] Tadokoro     He's still hanging on. [18:53] Naruko     Perm head! [18:54] Tadokoro     1.5 kilometers left. [18:57] Naruko     Sorry, Teshima-san. [18:59] Naruko     Honestly, I didn't think much of you. [19:04] Naruko     Look at this, old man. [19:06] Naruko     The gutsy way he's riding     is making my hands shake. [19:10] Tadokoro     Of course it is. [19:11] Tadokoro     I'm the one who trained Teshima and Aoyagi. [19:14] Naruko     You didn't teach them how to climb. [19:18] Tadokoro     He might just make it to     the finish line like this. [19:21] Kinjou     He can't. [19:23] Kinjou     Like Makishima said, Teshima has     no talent or instinct for climbing. [19:28] Kinjou     When it comes to climbing, he's mediocre. [19:31] Kinjou     And mediocre riders have their limits. [19:33] Naruko     Why would you say that, Kinjou-san? [19:36] Naruko     Did he not impress you? [19:38] Naruko     You should be cheering him on! [19:40] Tadokoro     Naruko... [19:41] Naruko     Are you saying Sohoku's going to lose     to that lanky Hakone Academy guy? [19:45] Kinjou     No, not necessarily. [19:50] Kinjou     Teshima's riding is affecting them     the same way it affected you. [19:56] Kinjou     More than we ever did. [20:00] Kinjou     The two riding behind Teshima are     feeling his passionate vibrations. [20:07] Imaizumi     I'm shaking. I'm on fire. [20:10] Imaizumi     How can he ride like that? [20:12] Imaizumi     How can he keep up? [20:14] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [20:16] Sakamichi     I want to ride all out and     catch up to Teshima-san! [20:25] Imaizumi     Onoda! [20:26] Teshima     Imaizumi... [20:28] (Flashback) Teshima     If... If Onoda says he wants     to attack during the race... [20:34] (Flashback) Teshima     gently push him forward. [20:38] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [20:41] Imaizumi     There's no need to hold back. [20:44] Imaizumi     Teshima-san will accept you with open arms. [20:48] Imaizumi     If you want to catch up to him,     charge straight ahead... [20:54] Imaizumi     Onoda Sakamichi! [20:57] Sakamichi     Got it! [21:02] Naruko     Onoda-kun's going for it! [21:03] Tadokoro     He's trying to catch up. [21:05] Naruko     Hotshot sent Onoda-kun off. [21:08] Kinjou     Teshima's an average rider. [21:11] Kinjou     But that's why he moves     the people around him. [21:15] Kinjou     And those vibrations become their strength. [21:17] Kinjou     That power is transmitted to his teammates. [21:23] Kinjou     Teshima, is that how you captain your team? [21:27] Sakamichi     Teshima-san! [21:32] Teshima     Onoda! [21:35] Kinjou     Don't worry, Naruko. [21:37] Kinjou     The race isn't over yet. [23:15] Girl 3     You're so cute! [23:17] Sakamichi     Huh? What? [23:18] Sakamichi     Thanks! [23:22] Imaizumi     Teshima-san, I think you're, uh... [23:26] Imaizumi     I think you're handsome. [23:28] Teshima     Really? [23:30] Teshima     Imaizumi, I'll call you "Elite"     for the rest of the week.

[06:47] Ashikiba     It was out of battery, so I left it. [06:49] Hakogaku     You left it? At home? [06:51] Hakogaku     You should keep your cell phone on you.

[07:26] Ashikiba     Yes, sir. [07:28] Ashikiba     I was in all right shape. [07:31] Ashikiba     There was classical music     playing inside my head. [07:33] Ashikiba     I tend to do well when that happens,     so I was convinced I could win. [07:40] Ashikiba     Sohoku's first-year, Onoda,     caught up to me in the last kilometer, [07:44] Ashikiba     so I counterattacked and     rode as hard as I could. [07:49] Ashikiba     The race played into my specialty, but... [07:54] Ashikiba     In the end, he passed me. [08:01] Ashikiba     I didn't win. [08:03] Ashikiba     I'm sorry, Fukutomi-san.

[09:32] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Since I'm so big, I'm the     best at doing laundry. [09:37] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm actually thinking about quitting the team     and becoming a team manager instead. [09:43] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Ashikiba... [09:46] (Flashback) Fukutomi     The only path you should take     is the one that leads forward. [09:49] (Flashback) Fukutomi     What do you want to be?

[10:22] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But it's... [10:23] (Flashback) Fukutomi     A disadvantage? Who decided that? [10:28] (Flashback) Fukutomi     You did. [10:31] (Flashback) Fukutomi     The only way to get stronger is to practice. [10:35] (Flashback) Fukutomi     That means training to get the     most out of what you possess.

[11:15] (Flashback) Shinkai     Don't be offended. [11:16] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Oh, I'm not. [11:18] (Flashback) Shinkai     We went to the club room that day [11:20] (Flashback) Shinkai     because we heard you were going     to become the laundry boy. [11:23] (Flashback) Shinkai     Juichi was trying to cheer you up. [11:29] (Flashback) Hakogaku B     The laundry boy won First-Year Race B! [11:33] Ashikiba     All right. I did it,     Shinkai-san, Fukutomi-san! [11:39] (Flashback) Ashikiba     What? Me? [11:41] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You want me to wear a Hakone Academy     jersey and appear in an official race? [11:46] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'll do it! I promise I'll win! [11:51] Ashikiba     I was so happy then,     I thought I could do anything. [11:57] Ashikiba     But reality was different. [12:10] (Flashback) Man     He's riding the wrong way! Watch out! [12:14] (Flashback) Fukutomi     I'm placing you on house arrest indefinitely. [12:16] (Flashback) Fukutomi     I'm not letting you race. [12:20] Ashikiba     I'm sorry. [12:22] Ashikiba     I placed second. [12:24] Ashikiba     I failed to meet your expectations again. [12:27] Fukutomi     You're all talk, Ashikiba. [12:31] Fukutomi     I thought I'd get to hear     you tell me you won today. [12:36] Ashikiba     I'm sorry. [12:38] Ashikiba     House arrest... [12:40] Ashikiba     I won't be able to race again. [12:42] Ashikiba     How can I repay them? [12:47] Fukutomi     I thought you were going to repay me. [12:52] Fukutomi     You'd better win the next one. [12:55] Ashikiba     The next one? [12:57] Fukutomi     Ashikiba, we never lose to     someone who's beaten us once. [13:02] Fukutomi     That's the duty of Hakone Academy's ace. [13:09] Ashikiba     Yes, sir. [13:12] Hakogaku     He's crying and smiling at the same time... [13:22] Naruko     Old man, let's settle this today. [13:25] Naruko     Let's see who's really     the number one sprinter. [13:29] Tadokoro     Fine. Bring it on, redhead. [13:32] Tadokoro     You, too, Aoyagi. [13:35] Rider A     Aren't they on the same team? [13:37] Rider B     Does that mean they don't     think we stand a chance? [13:40] Fan A     There's three guys leading the race! [13:41] Fan B     Who will win the race? [13:43] Tadokoro     Me! [13:45] Aoyagi     Me! [13:45] Naruko     Me, of course! [13:47] Naruko     The road racing season runs     from March to November. [13:51] Naruko     This is the season's last race. [13:53] Announce     The Bay Coast Hill Climb     is entering its final lap! [14:02] Sakamichi     N-Naruko-kun and Tadokoro-san      are so fast. So is Aoyagi-san. [14:06] Sakamichi     They're going way faster than     they were on the previous lap. [14:09] Imaizumi     That's because it's the final lap. [14:12] Kinjou     Tadokoro... [14:15] Kinjou     This Criterium involves over ten laps     of a two to three kilometer course [14:19] Kinjou     on closed city streets. [14:21] Kinjou     Their positioning, corner speed, and     sprinting power are important in this race. [14:25] Kinjou     And you insisted during the meeting on     looking toward next year's Inter-High. [14:33] Kinjou     When a team enters a race     with multiple participants, [14:37] Kinjou     normally they pick an ace     and act to make him win. [14:41] Kinjou     But our sprinters are incorrigible. [14:46] Kinjou     All three of those idiots are trying to win. [14:54] Naruko     I'll pull, too. [14:55] Naruko     I won't feel good about     winning if you complain later [14:58] Naruko     that you lost because you had to     lead the group the whole time. [15:01] Tadokoro     You think you're going to win? [15:03] Announce     He's moving ahead! [15:05] Aoyagi     I'll pull, too. [15:06] Tadokoro     Aoyagi! [15:06] Naruko     Aoyagi-san! [15:08] Naruko     So the quiet one wants a fair fight, too? [15:11] Naruko     In other words, it'll come down     to the sprint to the finish. [15:15] Naruko     The quiet one's gotten way stronger     over the past few months. [15:19] Naruko     If I underestimate him, he'll beat me. [15:24] Fan A     The three Sohoku guys are leading the race! [15:26] Fan A     Nobody can catch them! [15:27] Fan B     The Inter-High champions are     way stronger than the rest! [15:30] Naruko     He's putting his effort     toward the wrong thing. [15:33] Naruko     So am I. Of course we are! [15:36] Naruko     This is Tadokoro-san's last race with us! [15:43] Sugimoto     They're so fast! [15:44] Fan B     Damn it! [15:46] Sugimoto     They're leaving me behind, even though     we're all wearing Sohoku jerseys. [15:54] Sugimoto     That's it. [15:55] Sugimoto     They're encouraging me to make Sohoku proud     since I'm wearing one of our jerseys. [16:01] Sugimoto     I'll do my best. [16:06] Naruko     It's the final corner. [16:07] Naruko     The corner comes down to how     we enter and pull out of it. [16:10] Naruko     I'll enter at the narrowest possible angle. [16:12] Naruko     Once my posture starts reverting,     I'll use my dancing to jump ahead! [16:18] Announce     It's the home stretch! [16:19] Announce     It's just 500 meters to the finish line! [16:23] Aoyagi     Tadokoro-san looked after me and Junta. [16:27] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Go for the finish line! [16:29] (Flashback) Both     Yes, sir! [16:31] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm sorry! [16:32] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'm sorry... [16:33] (Flashback) Both     Tadokoro-san! [16:35] Aoyagi     He taught us to have     unbreakable spirits and wills. [16:40] Aoyagi     He taught us how to fight. [16:43] Aoyagi     That's why I want to show     him that I've grown! [16:50] Naruko     I can't imagine the team without the old man. [16:56] (Flashback) Tadokoro     You're a little bean. [16:59] Naruko     He never yields. [17:02] Naruko     He always shows off. [17:05] Naruko     And he's strong. [17:07] Naruko     That's why... [17:11] Naruko     I'll surpass the old man! [17:13] Naruko     And today's my last chance to do that! [17:19] Aoyagi     That's why... [17:20] Naruko     That's why I have to... [17:22] Both     Win! [17:24] Announce     Eighty meters left! [17:26] Tadokoro     These kids have grown. [17:31] Tadokoro     Aoyagi, Naruko... [17:33] Tadokoro     Carry on the spirit of     Sohoku's sprinters, who keep [17:36] Tadokoro     charging forward even after eating pavement. [17:40] Tadokoro     I'm sweating a lot today. [17:43] Tadokoro     This is your last job, Tadokoro Jin. [17:48] Tadokoro     I'll show them, so they don't win     and let it get to their heads. [17:53] Tadokoro     That in this world, there are     giant walls to overcome! [18:00] Tadokoro     Aoyagi, Naruko! [18:03] Tadokoro     Get stronger. [18:04] Tadokoro     Stronger, stronger, stronger! [18:14] Tadokoro     You have to pull Sohoku now. [18:20] Announce     The winner is Sohoku third-year Tadokoro Jin! [18:27] Tadokoro     That was close. [18:28] Tadokoro     That was the toughest sprint so far. [18:36] Tadokoro     You don't have to look so unhappy. [18:39] Naruko     You were supposed to quietly     pass the baton to us! [18:42] Tadokoro     I did it for you guys. [18:46] Tadokoro     Right, Aoyagi? [18:48] Tadokoro     Say something! [18:58] Tadokoro     Kinjou! [18:59] Imaizumi     Good work. [19:00] Kinjou     You rode well. [19:03] Tadokoro     Thanks, Aoyagi, Naruko. [19:06] Tadokoro     You made that a memorable race.

[20:00] Sakamichi     I'll send this to Makishima-san. [20:03] Sakamichi     He helped me a lot, too. [20:08] Kinjou     Yeah. I'm sure he'll appreciate it. [20:10] Tadokoro     Although it'll be hard to tell from     his expression if he does. [20:19] Teshima     Kinjou-san, Tadokoro-san. [20:20] Teshima     Thank you for all your hard work. [20:23] Teshima     We'll keep riding just as hard as you did. [20:28] Teshima     Thank you. [20:30] All     Thank you. [20:33] Kinjou     They're succeeding us, huh?

[04:40] Sakamichi     Yeah, g-good luck. [04:42] Sadatoki     Thank you! [04:45] Friend     I can't believe you have someone     who wants to join the club already. [04:48] Friend     The bicycle club's all set. [04:51] Friend     Miki? [04:53] Miki     Sorry, yeah. You're right. [04:57] Sugimoto     Shall we get practice started, then? [05:00] Sugimoto     We're training on Minegayama     today, right, Teshima-san? [05:02] Sugimoto     Sadatoki's been wanting     to ride with you, Onoda. [05:05] Sakamichi     What? [05:06] Imaizumi     I'm against it. [05:10] Imaizumi     I've been listening. [05:11] Imaizumi     Hey, big boy. Ride this. [05:15] Both     A th-three-drum roller? [05:18] Imaizumi     It's a test. If you can't ride this,     I won't let you participate in our practice. [05:22] Sugimoto     You can't be serious. [05:24] Sugimoto     Sadatoki's never rode one before. [05:26] Imaizumi     Every day of practice counts     for us. We're desperate. [05:31] Imaizumi     We can't give you special treatment     just because you're someone's brother. [05:35] Imaizumi     You have only one chance. [05:36] Imaizumi     If you fail, leave. [05:38] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun. [05:39] Sugimoto     But it's hard to balance     on three-drum rollers... [05:42] Sugimoto     At least give him a few chances. [05:47] Imaizumi     Can he succeed with only one chance? [05:50] Imaizumi     In road racing, that's an important factor. [05:55] Imaizumi     Onoda did it. [06:08] Imaizumi     Huh. [06:09] Sugimoto     Well, that was easy. [06:12] Teshima     We can afford to take him to     one practice to see how he does. [06:18] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [06:19] Teshima     So, how good is he on a bike? [06:22] Sugimoto     You mean Sadatoki? He's fine. [06:25] Sugimoto     After all, I've taught him everything     I know about road racing. [06:34] Imaizumi     He's so slow. [06:35] Imaizumi     He's strong enough to lift a mommy bike,     but he's a slow sprinter. [06:40] Teshima     Maybe it's his form. [06:42] Imaizumi     His form is awful. It's just like Sugimoto's. [06:45] Imaizumi     It's inefficient. [06:47] Imaizumi     He may have been good enough to ride on     the roller, but he's no good on a bike. [06:50] Sakamichi     Wait, Imaizumi-kun. [06:53] Sakamichi     Sadatoki-kun's strength could be climbing. [06:59] Imaizumi     Looks like you were wrong. [07:01] Imaizumi     It's another exact copy. [07:04] Sakamichi     Sadatoki-kun, you can do it. [07:06] Sakamichi     I mean, when you're climbing, uh... [07:10] Sadatoki     Yes, sir. What am I supposed to do? [07:13] Imaizumi     He's wasting his time. [07:14] Imaizumi     Let's go, Teshima-san. [07:17] Imaizumi     If there's anything he's specialized at,     it's being in perfect sync with his brother. [07:23] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Let's go. [07:25] Teshima     Synchronization? [07:29] Imaizumi     Maybe this is how they felt. [07:32] Imaizumi     As younger members join the team, [07:35] Imaizumi     you pray for just a handful     you can use at the Inter-High. [07:43] Imaizumi     Then your intentions just might reach them. [07:46] Imaizumi     It's a crushing, almost wishful feeling. [07:52] Imaizumi     Is that how you felt, Kinjou-san,     Tadokoro-san, Makishima-san? [07:58] Imaizumi     I guess I had hoped for more. [08:02] Imaizumi     Honestly, I'm disappointed     by our current situation. [08:06] Imaizumi     Let's go, Onoda. [08:08] Imaizumi     Unfortunately, we have to leave them behind. [08:10] Imaizumi     We don't have any more time for them. [08:12] Both     What? [08:13] Imaizumi     We have things we have to do today. [08:17] Imaizumi     We're facing the entire country. [08:26] Sadatoki     Thanks for the food. [08:27] Sadatoki     No, wait. I mean thank you. [08:30] Sadatoki     I had fun riding with you, Onoda-san. [08:34] Sugimoto     It's okay. I'll ride with Sadatoki. [08:40] Sakamichi     Sorry I couldn't do anything for you. [08:49] Teshima     Imaizumi, do you have some time to spare? [08:51] Teshima     Maybe about three minutes. [08:53] Imaizumi     Teshima-san? [08:54] Teshima     Go ride with Rice Boy for three minutes. [08:58] Imaizumi     No, thank you. We've already     reached a conclusion. [09:01] Teshima     Are you sure? [09:03] Teshima     Unlike his brother, he's big and powerful. [09:07] Teshima     He even had a good enough sense     of balance to ride on the roller. [09:10] Teshima     But he was slow on a bike. Why? [09:13] Imaizumi     Because of his form.     He's copying his brother's form. [09:18] Imaizumi     Sugimoto's form makes him lose power. [09:21] Imaizumi     Without power, you get left     behind in road racing. [09:24] Imaizumi     That's why he always falls behind. [09:27] Teshima     Then what if his form were improved? [09:29] Imaizumi     Then... No, it can't be fixed that quickly. [09:33] Imaizumi     At the very least, not in three minutes. [09:35] Teshima     Are you sure? Couldn't you do it? [09:39] Teshima     You said he had the power to synchronize. [09:44] Teshima     Go test it out. It means he has potential. [09:48] Imaizumi     Potential? [09:50] Teshima     Imaizumi, isn't that how      you brought Team Sohoku... [09:56] Teshima     its top-class ace climber? [10:01] Imaizumi     Onoda... [10:06] Sakamichi     Huh? Imaizumi-kun? [10:08] Sadatoki     Imaizumi-san? [10:10] Imaizumi     Big boy, you get one chance. [10:12] Imaizumi     Forget everything your brother     taught you about road racing. [10:16] Sugimoto     What are you talking about? [10:20] Imaizumi     Copy that small bespectacled guy's form     and do your best to catch up to him. [10:27] Sadatoki     My idol Onoda-san's form? [10:30] Sugimoto     He should be able to handle that.     Sadatoki's a fast learner. [10:36] Sugimoto     And Sadatoki's watched videos     of the first-year race [10:39] Sugimoto     and our training camp over and over. [10:43] Sadatoki     Onoda-san's... [10:45] Sadatoki     Onoda-san... [10:46] Imaizumi     The pressure changed. Is he... [10:49] Sadatoki     Onoda-san! [10:54] Sadatoki     Onoda-san! [10:57] Sakamichi     H-How? [11:00] Sadatoki     I-I caught up. [11:04] Sakamichi     Sadatoki-kun! [11:06] Sugimoto     Are you okay, Sadatoki? [11:08] Imaizumi     It was only for a moment,     but he copied his form perfectly. [11:12] Imaizumi     He succeeded twice with only     a single chance each time. [11:16] Imaizumi     Was it a coincidence? If it wasn't, then... [11:19] Sadatoki     Thanks for the food, Onoda-san. [11:21] Sakamichi     Oh, it's fine. [11:22] Sadatoki     Thanks for the food. [11:23] Sakamichi     No, really. Thank you. [11:25] Sadatoki     Thank you. [11:26] Teshima     Smile, Imaizumi. [11:28] Teshima     You're supposed to praise your     juniors when they do well. [11:35] Sadatoki     Thanks for the food. [11:35] Sakamichi     Really, it's okay. [11:37] Imaizumi     Rice Boy. [11:39] Sadatoki     Yes? [11:41] Imaizumi     G-Good job. [11:44] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, what's wrong with you? [11:46] Sugimoto     I-Imaizumi is making a conflicted face! [11:49] Imaizumi     I can't do it. I don't     compliment people often. [11:54] Sadatoki     Thanks for the food. [11:56] Imaizumi     Uh, I... [12:05] Naruko     Thanks for staying late. [12:07] Teshima     What did you want to talk about? [12:10] Naruko     Could I take time off     practice over the holiday? [12:15] Naruko     I'm having doubts about what's right     for me and the path I should take. [12:21] Naruko     I'm sorry. It's only a possibility, but... [12:26] Naruko     Could I quit being a sprinter? [12:34] Teshima     Quit being a sprinter? [12:37] Naruko     It's only a maybe. I'm just     saying it's a possibility. [12:43] Teshima     That's alarming. It affects our team. [12:48] Teshima     Tadokoro-san passed on the role     of sprinter to you. [12:53] Teshima     Your abilities leave nothing to be desired. [12:55] Teshima     What is there to worry about? [13:00] Naruko     I'm sorry! Please don't ask,     just give me the three days off! [13:03] Naruko     I'm thinking of going home to Osaka. [13:06] Naruko     I want to return to where     I started and think things over. [13:09] Naruko     I want to find my own answer. [13:13] Teshima     You're not too smart, are you? [13:15] Teshima     You've been too stubborn [13:17] Teshima     to ask Tadokoro-san about whatever's     bothering you, haven't you? [13:22] Naruko     I... [13:23] Teshima     It means it's too heavy a     concern to discuss with others. [13:27] Teshima     Naruko, that sounds just like you. [13:30] Teshima     You can go until you're satisfied. [13:34] Naruko     I'm back to the city where     I was born and raised, Osaka! SIGN    Naruko Snacks SIGN    Naruko Shoukichi-kun     Congratulations on your team's victory!     Celebrating a triumphant return!! [13:54] Naruko     I guess I'll go to where it all started. [14:03] Naruko     I might be able to find something here. [14:08] Naruko     This brings back memories.     It's been six months. [14:12] Naruko     That sign's the finish line. [14:15] Naruko     The fastest guys in Osaka gather here. [14:23] Naruko     I learned to sprint by racing here every day. [14:28] Naruko     They're so cool. [14:31] Naruko     This is where I first     encountered road racing! [14:34] Naruko     My home course! [14:36] Naruko     This is where everything started! [14:39] Naruko     One lap is 600 meters of 250-meter     straights and one turn. [14:44] Naruko     Fighting against and     utilizing the sea breeze, [14:47] Naruko     I used tricks, instinct, and     technique to seize victory! [14:51] Man 1     He's fast! [14:51] Man 2     His cornering and speed are incredible! [14:54] Man 3     That jersey... [14:56] Man 3     That's Chiba's Sohoku! [14:57] Man 1     What? You mean this year's     Inter-High winners? [15:00] Man 3     I heard a red-headed sprinter     from Osaka joined Chiba's Sohoku. [15:05] Man 1     The sprinter Naruko Shoukichi! [15:08] Naruko     Sprinter... [15:11] Naruko     Fast, flashy, and speeding     through corners at top speed. [15:14] Naruko     Racing past the scenery     faster than everyone else. [15:17] Naruko     A world of glorious make-or-break contests. [15:21] Naruko     That's what it means to be a sprinter! [15:22] Naruko     It's the world I admired! The path I believed in! [15:27] Naruko     I can't abandon this that easily. [15:30] Naruko     My red blood is screaming for it! [15:34] Kakimoto     Let's race, Sohoku.     How does three laps sound? [15:39] Kakimoto     I'm Handai High School's sprinter,     Kakimoto Ryudai. [15:44] Kakimoto     They call me the Dragon     of Rokko's Winter Winds. [15:46] Kakimoto     I'm undefeated on this course. [15:50] Naruko     Bring it on. Let's do three laps. [15:52] Naruko     If I fail here, I'll have failed     as a sprinter. I'll give it up. [15:56] Kakimoto     Ready, go! [15:59] Naruko     You won't beat me! [16:02] Naruko     The answer can always be found in battle. [16:05] Man 1     First lap! [16:06] Man 1     It's a race between the red-haired Sohoku     rider Naruko and Handai High's Kakimoto! [16:10] Naruko     It seems like it's true this Kakimoto     guy is undefeated on this course. [16:15] Naruko     He's keeping up with me. [16:17] Man 1     Third lap! One lap left! [16:21] Kakimoto     Sohoku's Naruko, your sprinting     and cornering are incredible. [16:25] Kakimoto     It's no wonder you won nationals. [16:27] Kakimoto     But this is an unofficial race.     Anything goes on this different kind of track. [16:35] Kakimoto     I'll show you why they really call me the     Night Dragon of Rokko's Winter Winds. [16:42] Man 1     There it is! [16:43] Man 2     The Night Dragon Kakimoto special! [16:47] Kakimoto     Surprised? Of course you are. [16:49] Kakimoto     Not only am I fast, but I glow! [16:53] Kakimoto     Like a nightscape of Kobe seen from     Mt. Rokko, I'm worth a million dollars. [16:59] Kakimoto     Why Kobe when I'm from Osaka?     They're close enough. [17:02] Kakimoto     Don't worry about the details. [17:05] Naruko     That's so cool! [17:08] Kakimoto     Now it's full speed ahead!     It's a straight line to the finish line! [17:11] Naruko     Oh, whoops. Calm down. [17:14] Naruko     I'm in the middle of the race. [17:15] Naruko     This is no time to be admiring his bike. [17:17] Man 1     Naruko's fallen behind! [17:18] Naruko     No matter the circumstances, I'll win. [17:20] Naruko     I learned this feeling during the Inter-High. [17:25] Naruko     Move, idiot! The flashiest man here... [17:31] Naruko     is me, Naruko Shoukichi! Yeah! [17:36] Man 1     What was that? Amazing! [17:38] Man 1     He stretched so far ahead     before the finish line! [17:40] Man 2     That's how the champions, Sohoku, sprint! [17:45] Daitsubu     If I beat you, I'll be top-class. [17:48] Daitsubu     Sohoku's Naruko, I'm your next opponent. [17:52] Daitsubu     It's been a while. [17:54] Daitsubu     I'm Nara Sanri Academy's white-hot     sprinter, Daitsubu Takeshi. [17:58] Daitsubu     I'll only turn the other cheek thrice. [18:00] Naruko     Who the hell is he? [18:03] Daitsubu     This is my bike. [18:06] Naruko     That's... [18:07] Daitsubu     They're popular in Europe. It's a track bike. [18:12] Daitsubu     Even the gears have been removed. [18:13] Daitsubu     It's light. It's strong. [18:15] Daitsubu     It's a bike made exclusively     for riding flats. [18:19] Daitsubu     The hollowed out tube... [18:21] Daitsubu     The super-light handles     made for track racing... [18:24] Daitsubu     Do you know what happens [18:26] Daitsubu     when I combine them with my barrel-like legs,     which were made for sprinting? [18:31] Daitsubu     In scientific reactions, when you combine     pure reagents, you get miraculous results. [18:37] Daitsubu     Come, Sohoku sprinter! It's a three-lap race! [18:42] Daitsubu     I'll only turn the other cheek thrice! [18:44] Naruko     Is that your catchphrase? [18:45] Naruko     Jeez, these freaks keep     coming one after another. [18:50] Naruko     But I can tell they all love bikes. [18:54] Naruko     I'm the same way. [18:56] Naruko     So I'll sprint as hard as I can. [18:59] Naruko     I think he said something about purity. [19:03] Naruko     Sorry, but Naruko Shoukichi is a     natural-born 100 percent pure sprinter! [19:12] Naruko     You're pretty fast. [19:14] Naruko     I'm just unthinkably fast. [19:18] Naruko     I excel at straight lines     as I ride with flair! [19:21] Naruko     I'm the prodigal speedster! [19:30] Naruko     Uh-oh, I've gotten stronger. [19:34] Naruko     I'm faster than I was     when I used to ride here. [19:37] Naruko     I can tell I'm using my muscles,     and my speed's on a whole different level. [19:42] Naruko     Did riding in the Inter-High make me grow? [19:46] Naruko     Was it my friendly rivalry with     the old man and Aoyagi-san? [19:49] Naruko     Sorry, hotshot. I can't give up this gift. [19:54] Naruko     My next race will be my last one.     If I win, I'll keep riding as a sprinter. [20:03] Midousuji     Shall we race? [20:06] Naruko     M-Midousuji? Kyoto Fushimi's ace?

[20:23] Midousuji     I came to Osaka since I was bored [20:27] Midousuji     and heard a gross freak in     a yellow jersey was here.

[05:17] Naruko     They can't be serious! [05:23] Naruko     You going somewhere? [05:24] Naruko     You seem to be in a hurry. [05:26] Naruko     Are you holding back a poop? [05:29] Midousuji     Sohoku sprinter, are you     talking about yourself? [05:33] Midousuji     You're pedaling as fast as you can. [05:36] Mob 1     Whoa! [05:37] Mob 1     What? They finished two laps     in the time I finished one! [05:41] Naruko     Show me what you've really got! [05:44] Midousuji     No, you. [05:46] Daitsubu     They're so fast. [05:47] Kakimoto     What's wrong with them? [05:49] Kakimoto     Was Naruko holding back when he raced us? [05:52] Ishigaki     They're both pushing each other forward. [05:54] Both     What? [05:55] Ishigaki     Both their ability and competitive spirit. [05:58] Daitsubu     Kyoto Fushimi third-year... [06:01] Kakimoto     ...Ishigaki! [06:03] Ishigaki     Will you make your next breakthrough in     this race against Naruko-kun, Midousuji? [06:14] Midousuji     That's right. [06:15] Midousuji     This is exactly the kind of     competition I was looking for. [06:21] Mob 2     Sohoku's pulling ahead! [06:23] Naruko     You're too slow, Turtle-suji. [06:26] Midousuji     That's not something you should     say when you're drenched in sweat, [06:29] Midousuji     you chicken-headed bean! [06:32] Midousuji     Fall! [06:33] Naruko     Shut up! [06:34] Midousuji     Fall! [06:35] Naruko     No, you fall! [06:37] Midousuji     Fall! [06:38] Naruko     Idiot! [06:39] Kakimoto     Second lap! [06:49] Daitsubu     Third lap! [06:52] Midousuji     Fall! [06:54] Naruko     I'm not falling, seaweed! [06:56] Mob 2     They're running into each other... [06:58] Mob 3     As they pass us! [06:59] Midousuji     Fourth lap! [07:01] Midousuji     You want to keep going? [07:03] Midousuji     This race is about to become     so back-breakingly intense, [07:07] Midousuji     you'll wish you'd dropped out now. [07:09] Naruko     Thanks. That's exactly what I'm looking for. [07:12] Naruko     Make it as hard as you can. [07:15] Midousuji     You must be stupid. [07:16] Midousuji     Why'd you scream about seaweed? [07:17] Naruko     That's you. [07:19] Naruko     You're long and drift around everywhere! [07:23] Kakimoto     They're changing positions     as they ride with dizzying speed! [07:25] Mob 1     They've gotten even faster on this lap! [07:28] Mob 2     Will this race be a draw? [07:35] Midousuji     Seaweed! [07:36] Naruko     Watching him ride from behind     sends chills down my spine. [07:39] Naruko     All my hair's standing on end. [07:43] Naruko     He's different from everyone     else I've ridden against. [07:48] Naruko     He has no doubts. He's decisive. [07:52] Naruko     It's like he's carving away everything     unnecessary with a knife or something. [07:58] Naruko     He only rides to move forward! [08:03] Naruko     His style has changed! [08:07] Midousuji     Seaweed! [08:09] Naruko     He's stronger than he was at the Inter-High! [08:12] Daitsubu     Fifth lap! [08:17] Midousuji     You've been speaking less. [08:24] Midousuji     After becoming the champions of the     Inter-High and hugging each other, [08:28] Midousuji     praising each other,     congratulating each other, [08:31] Midousuji     and discussing how important     your friends are... [08:34] Midousuji     Are you sure you didn't forget to practice? [08:40] Naruko     You're right. I may have forgotten. [08:49] Mob 1     Sohoku's Naruko pulled     ahead of him in the turn! [08:52] Mob 2     He's trying to keep Kyoto Fushimi in check! [08:56] Naruko     Keep you in check? I wouldn't do that. [08:59] Naruko     I'm the Sprinter of Naniwa! [09:02] Naruko     I always aim to be flashy! [09:04] Naruko     Playtime is over! [09:07] Naruko     I'm pulling ahead! [09:09] Kakimoto     Sixth lap! [09:12] Midousuji     He jumped ahead. Was that     not as fast as he could go? [09:15] Midousuji     That acceleration's the real thing. [09:17] Midousuji     This technique, this heartbeat,     this wariness, this pressure. [09:21] Midousuji     He's no ordinary chicken-head! [09:26] Mob 1     Kyoto Fushimi's falling behind! [09:29] Midousuji     So he's been observing me until now? [09:34] Midousuji     Me? Observing me? [09:37] Midousuji     He's been appraising me? [09:41] Midousuji     And he jumped ahead because     he thought he could win? [09:45] Naruko     I can win. [09:47] Naruko     You were right. I did forget to practice. [09:51] Naruko     After all, our team had a bear with     a giant attitude and body on it. [09:55] Naruko     Because I was anxious to beat him,     I didn't have a chance to rest! [10:00] Naruko     And partway through, a super-fast     but silent mole popped up, too. [10:05] Naruko     Unfortunately for you, Midousuji,     since the Inter-High, [10:10] Naruko     I've gotten stronger not during practice,     but during actual races! [10:14] Naruko     Sorry. That told me everything     I needed to know. [10:17] Naruko     I'm the faster sprinter. [10:20] Naruko     I'll show you just how fast     the genius Naruko can sprint! [10:32] Mob 1     He's so fast! [10:33] Mob 2     Sohoku's been riding exceptionally     fast since he jumped ahead! [10:37] Naruko     This is how fast the genius Naruko sprints! [10:44] Daitsubu     They're starting their seventh lap. [10:46] Daitsubu     There's four laps to go. [10:47] Kakimoto     Kyoto Fushimi's falling behind. [10:51] Mizuta     If Midousuji-kun loses, only five of     us will ride at next year's Inter-High. [10:59] Mizuta     Anything goes in an unofficial race. [11:02] Mizuta     No one said it had to be one-on-one. [11:04] Mizuta     I'm going to go help Midousuji-kun. [11:07] Ishigaki     You don't need to go, Nobu. [11:11] Mizuta     Are you sure it's okay for you     to call me Nobu, Ishigaki-san? [11:16] Mizuta     Midousuji-kun told us to call each     other by our numbers or use honorifics. [11:21] Ishigaki     It's fine. I retired from the club. [11:25] Ishigaki     I'll call you whatever I want, Nobuyuki. [11:28] Mizuta     What do you mean, we don't     have to go help him? [11:32] Ishigaki     He's been waiting for this moment. [11:36] Ishigaki     For someone as physically and mentally     strong as he is to accept his challenge. [11:44] Ishigaki     He's become too strong. No one     can challenge him anymore. [11:50] Ishigaki     Since the Inter-High ended,     his riding style has changed. [11:54] Mizuta     Really? It looks the same to me. [11:57] Ishigaki     No, he's started carefully considering     and treating each practice and each race. [12:05] Ishigaki     He's always been that way,     but it's like he's honed it. [12:08] Ishigaki     Like he's searching for something. [12:11] Ishigaki     It seemed to me like he was waiting for     something to break him out of his shell. [12:16] Ishigaki     He's the one in control of this race. [12:21] Ishigaki     Just as an insect breaks through its     exoskeleton to become stronger and larger, [12:27] Ishigaki     he's trying to shed his skin, too. [12:34] Midousuji     I wanted competition. [12:39] Midousuji     Win or lose... I can't lose. [12:43] Midousuji     Something important. [12:54] Midousuji     Something that's only born     from this kind of intensity. [12:59] Midousuji     This is the shock I was looking for. [13:04] Midousuji     It's time to fly. [13:11] Midousuji     Just as insects metamorphose and     take flight in search of life [13:15] Midousuji     when an area becomes overpopulated... [13:19] Midousuji     To achieve my next victory... [13:25] Midousuji     I will fly, too! [13:32] Mizuta     A battle cry? Midousuji-kun! [13:34] Ishigaki     Midousuji, is this your next form? [13:50] Kakimoto     Eighth lap! [13:52] Daitsubu     What the hell is that? [13:54] Mob 1     He stretched his back straight forward! [13:55] Mob 2     His form is so strange, but... [13:58] Mob 2     He's fast! [14:00] Kakimoto     He's trying to catch up with     less than 1.8 kilometers to go. [14:04] Kakimoto     But he's almost half a lap behind. [14:07] Mob 2     Can he do that? [14:14] Ishigaki     Midousuji... [14:16] Sign     Kyoto     Fushimi     High SIGN    Bicycle Racing Club [14:19] (Flashback) Club 1     Good work. [14:21] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's no good. [14:24] (Flashback) Ishigaki     What's wrong, Midousuji? [14:27] (Flashback) Ishigaki     I know your time wasn't     good today, but it happens. [14:31] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You rode incredibly at     this year's Inter-High. [14:36] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You're the pride of the team. [14:38] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You don't need to be so hard on yourself. [14:42] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's not a physical burden. [14:45] (Flashback) Midousuji     I can't move onto the next stage like this. [14:48] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's something different. [14:51] (Flashback) Midousuji     Something mental, as well. [14:54] (Flashback) Midousuji     Something back-breaking... [14:57] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You've been wearing those while you practice? [15:00] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Midousuji... [15:00] (Flashback) Midousuji     A race... [15:04] Ishigaki     He can't hear me. [15:07] (Flashback) Midousuji     Living creatures only evolve under     truly difficult circumstances. [15:15] Ishigaki     It's fine. Don't look back. [15:19] Ishigaki     Keep chasing after the new form you see. [15:31] Naruko     He's getting closer. [15:33] Kakimoto     Two laps left! [15:36] Mob 1     Sohoku's riding ahead! [15:37] Mob 2     He's going to make it! [15:39] Naruko     It's not my imagination. [15:44] Naruko     He's coming. [15:46] Naruko     Interesting. [15:48] Naruko     I'm impressed, Midousuji. [15:50] Naruko     You still had that much potential left? [15:53] Naruko     But I won't let you catch up! [16:00] Naruko     What is he doing? [16:04] Naruko     He's different. I can feel it. [16:07] Naruko     My fingers are shaking. [16:09] Naruko     What kind of ridiculous pressure is this? [16:12] Naruko     Hey, wait! I'm not letting you catch me! [16:16] Naruko     I'm the fastest, flashiest man on the track! [16:18] Naruko     The Speedman of Naniwa, Naruko Shoukichi! [16:24] Naruko     No way! [16:26] Naruko     What kind of crazy form is that?     I've never seen anything like it. [16:29] Naruko     Has he been... [16:34] Midousuji     Oh, you're behind me now, bean? [16:40] Midousuji     I'm facing downwards, so I didn't notice. [16:45] Midousuji     That's not good. I can't go     fast unless I face forward. [16:50] Kakimoto     One more lap! [16:52] Mob 1     Kyoto Fushimi's ahead of Sohoku! [16:56] Midousuji     You seem desperate, bean. [16:59] Midousuji     But I can see it. [17:02] Midousuji     I can see myself raising my hands in victory! [17:08] Naruko     Crap! [17:10] Naruko     My nose is bleeding. [17:12] Daitsubu     Naruko... [17:14] Kakimoto     Honestly, I want Naruko to win. [17:18] Kakimoto     The way he stretched for the     finish line was the real deal. [17:22] Daitsubu     Me, too. He's a pure sprinter. [17:25] Daitsubu     And the third time's the charm. [17:31] Daitsubu     Naruko, you can do it! [17:38] Naruko     What is this? I was supposed     to pull ahead and win. [17:42] Naruko     But he caught up. [17:44] Naruko     He caught up and passed me. [17:47] Naruko     Why is Idiot-suji riding so far ahead of me? [17:51] Naruko     I'm the one who knows this track! [17:54] Naruko     I'm the genius sprinter of Naniwa! [17:56] Naruko     I... [18:01] Naruko     ...always win, no matter the circumstances! [18:08] Naruko     Road races are make-or-break! [18:10] Naruko     You only get one shot! [18:13] Naruko     The are two possible results: win or lose. [18:16] Naruko     I'll give everything I've got     and put my life on the line! [18:20] Naruko     I'll bet everything and put it all out there! [18:24] Naruko     Win or lose... [18:26] Naruko     That's why I'm on fire! [18:29] Daitsubu     He caught up on the straight! [18:31] Naruko     He's fast. We're going so fast,     my nose is bleeding. [18:34] Naruko     Honestly, my heart and muscles are screaming. [18:38] Naruko     He's evolved during this race. [18:42] Naruko     Right here. Unbelievably! [18:44] Naruko     But so what? I'll win! [18:48] Naruko     I'll do everything I can and win! [18:52] Mob 1     He threw away his water bottle! [18:54] Kakimoto     He's making himself lighter for the sprint! [18:58] Daitsubu     He zipped up his jersey to     reduce his wind resistance! [19:04] Mizuta     He even threw away his saddle! [19:07] Naruko     I will win! [19:08] Daitsubu     He's made himself as light as possible! [19:10] Kakimoto     I don't believe it. [19:11] Kakimoto     He's determined to win. [19:14] Naruko     I'm Naruko Shoukichi! [19:18] Daitsubu     They're entering the last turn! [19:20] Naruko     When will I go, if not now? [19:23] Kakimoto     One hundred and twenty meters left! [19:27] (Flashback) Naruko     If I lose, I'll quit sprinting. [19:30] Naruko     I can't quit! Sprinting is my way of life! [19:34] Naruko     My pride! [19:37] Midousuji     Bean, bean... [19:40] Midousuji     You're not a bean. [19:42] Midousuji     You're a chicken-headed turtle. [19:56] Midousuji     I did it. [19:57] Midousuji     If I lost here, no matter     how cutting-edge the change, [19:59] Midousuji     it couldn't be called an evolution. [20:04] Midousuji     But I won. I am victorious. [20:07] Midousuji     I did it. [20:10] Midousuji     I achieved my next form. [20:17] Naruko     In my hometown of Osaka,     on a track I've ridden to death, [20:24] Naruko     I gave everything I had until     my nose bled, and I lost. [20:30] Naruko     Damn it!

[20:43] Midousuji     Aren't you going to quit, sprinter? [20:46] Midousuji     That's what you said before we started. [20:50] Naruko     Yeah, I'll quit. [20:53] Naruko     A man never goes back on his word. [21:01] Midousuji     Sohoku has lost one of its feathers. [21:05] Midousuji     And they just became champions, too.

[06:32] Club A     Izumida-san's group is moving ahead, too! [06:39] Fukutomi     Someone's missing. [06:41] Izumida     It's not a problem. He'll be here soon. [06:45] Izumida     Come, Manami! [06:47] Manami     Yes, sir. [06:48] Club A     Even Manami? [07:03] Izumida     Since I have the opportunity,     let me be clear. [07:06] Izumida     You are... [07:08] Izumida     Weak! [07:12] Izumida     You smeared mud on your     school's proud history, [07:14] Izumida     and you failed to win the general     classification at the Inter-High. [07:18] Izumida     You called yourselves the strongest team,     but placed second! [07:21] Izumida     As far as Hakone Academy is concerned,     second place is last place! [07:25] Izumida     How are you going to take     responsibility for that? [07:29] Izumida     Will you reclaim your honor next year? [07:32] Izumida     You can't. After all, you're third-years. [07:38] Izumida     You're graduating. [07:41] Fukutomi     Izumida... [07:43] Izumida     So we will inherit that     responsibility and desire! [07:51] Arakita     Well said. [07:55] Izumida     I used to look up to and chase after you,     but now I will surpass you. [08:01] Izumida     Let me show you our strength by     beating you in your final race! [08:08] Club A     Izumida-san zipped up his jersey! [08:10] Club B     He's declaring war on the third-years! [08:13] Fukutomi     Izumida. [08:14] Toudou     Now you've said it. [08:16] Arakita     Kuroda, Ashikiba, and Manami, huh? [08:19] Shinkai     Nice. We should answer their challenge. [08:22] Shinkai     Besides... [08:25] Club A     There it is! It's Shinkai-san's ka-pow pose! [08:31] Fukutomi     Go, Shinkai! [08:32] Izumida     Follow me, Yuki, Ashikiba, Manami! [08:38] Club A     Th-They're so fast! [08:39] Fujiwara     Pedal, first-years! [08:41] Fujiwara     If you fall behind now,     you'll never catch up! [08:44] All     Yes, sir! [08:45] Shinkai     Go! [08:51] Ashikiba     They're so fast. [08:54] Kuroda     This isn't good.     They're pulling ahead a little bit. [08:57] Kuroda     What should we do, Touichirou? [08:58] Ashikiba     What? That's not a little. [09:00] Ashikiba     They're pretty far ahead of us, Yuki-chan. [09:02] Kuroda     I wasn't being literal. I meant     the opposite of what I said. [09:05] Kuroda     Learn to read the atmosphere, stupid. [09:07] Ashikiba     How rude. There's nothing stupid about me. [09:10] Kuroda     That's what makes you stupid! [09:12] Kuroda     Ninety percent of stupid people     don't realize they're stupid [09:15] Kuroda     and find out from the Ministry of     Internal Affairs and Communications. [09:17] Ashikiba     Really? [09:18] Kuroda     Of course not! It's a joke! [09:19] Kuroda     You should've known! [09:21] Ashikiba     D-Do you... [09:23] Ashikiba     think I'm one of those people? [09:26] Kuroda     I told you, it's not true! [09:28] Kuroda     Who would even investigate that? [09:30] Kuroda     Don't let the name of the Ministry     make you doubt yourself so much! [09:34] Izumida     Are you finished with your     comedy routine, Ashikiba, Yuki? [09:37] Kuroda     For now. [09:39] Ashikiba     That was a comedy routine? [09:41] Kuroda     What are we going to do? [09:43] Izumida     Follow them, of course. [09:46] Manami     I'll pull. [09:48] Manami     I can't lose any more. [09:57] Manami     I can't make the same mistake twice. [10:02] Manami     I promise I'll win. [10:05] Manami     I'll pull until my legs fall apart. [10:07] Manami     I'll catch up to them! [10:09] Manami     Let me lead us to victory! [10:11] Izumida     No, it's fine. Head to the back. [10:14] Manami     Why? I'll pull for us. [10:16] Izumida     Fall back. [10:17] Manami     I know I'm a climber, but— [10:19] Kuroda     What's this? [10:22] Kuroda     According to the Ministry's investigation,     there's another idiot in the group. [10:28] Kuroda     He's aloof, smiley, and absent-minded. [10:32] Kuroda     But he's unbelievably fast on hills. [10:35] Kuroda     To borrow Arakita-san's words,     he's a wonder boy. [10:41] Izumida     Yuki... [10:46] Kuroda     You've been working too hard     since the Inter-High, Sangaku! [10:51] Kuroda     A first-year shouldn't be shouldering     that kind of responsibility. [10:53] Kuroda     Just say there was a pebble in the     road or make some other excuse. [10:58] Kuroda     You pushed past me to attend the Inter-High. [11:01] Kuroda     You didn't win the group F race     that day because you had guts. [11:06] Kuroda     It was your bottomless focus. [11:10] Kuroda     But what about now? The burden you're     carrying is making you unsteady. [11:15] Kuroda     You're unfocused,     and your pedaling is a mess. [11:19] Kuroda     You're a climber, but you     want to pull on the flats? [11:22] Kuroda     You're supposed to be the guy who says     he's too tired to pull when he's told to! [11:25] Manami     Kuroda-san... [11:27] Kuroda     Quit putting on airs and working so hard. [11:30] Kuroda     Are you trying to look bigger than you are? [11:31] Kuroda     Are you an idol who can't wait to grow up? [11:34] Kuroda     Let the others handle the flats. [11:38] Kuroda     These seaside flats will end soon. [11:41] Kuroda     There are mountains waiting     for us after that. [11:44] Kuroda     That's when we climbers can go wild. [11:50] Kuroda     That's what Touichirou was trying to say. [11:58] Izumida     You finally smiled. [12:00] Izumida     Fall back and rest.     Resting improves your focus. [12:07] Izumida     Right, Manami? [12:12] Manami     Yes, sir. [12:15] Izumida     I prepared these for today's race. [12:18] Kuroda     Is it a map? [12:20] Izumida     They're number tag stickers. [12:22] Ashikiba     Wow. [12:24] Manami     Single digit? [12:25] Kuroda     You're starting to act like     a captain, Touichirou. [12:29] Izumida     Ace #1, Ashikiba! [12:31] Ashikiba     You're making me nervous. [12:33] Izumida     Number 2, Yuki! [12:34] Kuroda     Crap, that's Arakita-san's number. [12:37] Izumida     Number 3 is for our climber, Manami! [12:39] Manami     That's Toudou-san's number. [12:42] Izumida     And my number tag is the     one I've always wanted. [12:47] Izumida     The number of Hakone Academy's     fastest rider, #4! [12:51] Izumida     After them! [12:52] Kuroda     Yeah! [12:54] Club A     The captain's group is accelerating now! [12:56] Fujiwara     Follow them! [12:57] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [13:08] Shinkai     I thought we had pulled pretty far ahead. [13:10] Shinkai     That's odd. I guess we hadn't. [13:15] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [13:17] Kuroda     I see them, Touichirou. It's the third-years. [13:17] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [13:20] Izumida     We'll beat them. [13:26] Kuroda     Let's go. [13:26] Both     Yeah! [13:31] Shinkai     Izumida, you know about [13:33] Shinkai     the demon of Hakone that      appears on straight roads... [13:36] Shinkai     Don't you? [13:37] Izumida     Abs! Let's go, Andy! [13:41] Izumida     Frank! [13:43] Izumida     Come... [13:45] Izumida     Fabian! [13:49] Shinkai     Bring it on, Izumida! [13:54] Izumida     My cells are trembling.     My heart won't stop pounding. [13:59] Izumida     I'm about to race against him. [14:03] Izumida     He used to be so far out of reach.     Those days were so long. [14:13] Izumida     Are you ready? [14:15] Izumida     Show me the best you can do! [14:20] Izumida     Abs, ready... [14:22] Izumida     Go! [14:23] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs, abs! [14:26] Club A     It's Hakone Academy's Demon     of the Straight Road! [14:28] Club B     Shinkai-san began his counterattack     after the captain's group caught up! [14:32] Club C     And Izumida-san reacted instantly     with his Full-Body Muscle Sprint! [14:35] ---     Abs! Abs! Abs! [14:37] Club A     They're both continuing to accelerate! [14:41] Takadajou     Such incredible acceleration!     They're on a different level! [14:44] Kuroda     You're a first-year, aren't you? [14:46] Takadajou     Yes, sir. I'm Takadajou. [14:49] Takadajou     I wanted to experience the third-years'     last race and how Izumida-senpai rides. [14:56] Takadajou     But I can't keep up. [14:58] Kuroda     You've got guts. [15:00] Takadajou     Um, what about Shinkai-san and Izumida-san? [15:05] Kuroda     Once we turn right [15:06] Kuroda     at the intersection at Kawazu,     the flats of this seaside road will end. [15:12] Kuroda     Right under the giant sign in front of it, [15:15] Kuroda     there's a white line that's     just like a finish line. [15:19] Kuroda     They'll be riding all-out to that line. [15:22] ---     Abs! Abs! Abs! [15:24] Izumida     Shinkai-san!      Abs, abs, abs, abs, abs! [15:26] Izumida     I will surpass you! [15:27] Shinkai     Izumida! [15:30] Shinkai     Bring it on! [15:32] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [15:49] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [15:51] Shinkai     I'm pulling ahead.     Will you fall behind, Izumida? [15:57] Izumida     My back muscles are the spring.     They're the biggest muscles in the body. [16:03] Izumida     The back muscles! [16:05] Izumida     They pull the arms through the shoulders     and turn the legs through the buttocks. [16:09] Izumida     They're the source of all muscles. [16:13] Izumida     Fierce and grand! The father of all muscles! [16:17] Izumida     That is Fabian! [16:21] Izumida     Abs! Turn... [16:24] Izumida     Fabian! [16:28] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [16:32] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [16:35] Shinkai     Izumida, you were a great junior to me. [16:41] Shinkai     You were honest, serious,     and always kept up with me. [16:49] (Flashback) Izumida     Shinkai-san, may I join you? [16:52] (Flashback) Shinkai     Sure. [16:55] Shinkai     You were persistent. [17:01] (Flashback) Izumida     I can't beat him! [17:05] (Flashback) Izumida     Next time, Shinkai-san. [17:10] (Flashback) Izumida     Shinkai-san... [17:12] (Flashback) Izumida     Shinkai-san! [17:14] Shinkai     I secretly enjoyed watching you grow. [17:22] Izumida     Shinkai-san! [17:27] Izumida     Five kilometers left. [17:30] Izumida     We're getting closer. [17:30] ---     Abs! Abs! Abs! [17:32] Izumida     Each time my muscles turn the crank... [17:35] Izumida     Each time my tires kick against the ground... [17:38] Izumida     I get closer to the end of my time with you. SIGN    Kawazu City [17:42] Izumida     Two kilometers left. [17:43] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs, abs! [17:47] Izumida     One kilometer... [17:49] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs! [17:53] Izumida     I will surpass him. [17:56] Izumida     It's the final stretch. Give me     your strength, Andy, Frank, Fabian! [18:01] Shinkai     Shit, my legs are falling off. But... [18:06] ---     Abs! Abs! Abs! [18:07] Shinkai     500 meters left! [18:09] Shinkai     It's the final stretch! Pedal! [18:13] Izumida     That's it! [18:15] Shinkai     The finish line! [18:19] Izumida     Why? Why am I crying? [18:34] Izumida     That's it. [18:38] Izumida     That's it. This is... [18:49] Izumida     ...what it means... [18:52] Izumida     ...to surpass someone you admire. [19:01] Shinkai     You've grown, Touichirou. [19:07] Izumida     I did it! Abs! [19:17] Izumida     Thank you, Shinkai-san. [19:21] Izumida     In our final race, I rode     with your #4 on my chest. [19:30] Shinkai     Don't steal that. That's my number. [19:34] Shinkai     But I guess it's time I let you have it. [19:46] Izumida     Thank you! [19:51] Izumida     I have one last question. [19:53] Izumida     Shinkai-san, why did you smile then? [19:59] Shinkai     Yeah, I wonder why. [20:02] Shinkai     I was just having so much     fun that I couldn't contain it. [20:17] Shinkai     The climber and ace stages     are after this one. [20:21] Izumida     Yes, sir. [20:26] Toudou     Let's have one last race. [20:29] Toudou     Come with me. I'll give     you a workout, Manami. [20:33] Manami     Yes, sir. [20:37] Fujiwara     It's time. [20:39] Club D     Huh? [20:40] Fujiwara     On this course, after the     right turn at Kawazu... [20:49] Fujiwara     ...waits Amagihara Pass, the tallest     peak on the Izu Peninsula. [20:55] Club D     Toudou-san and Manami? [20:56] Fujiwara     That's right. [20:57] Fujiwara     You'll never see a race between Hakone     Academy climbers like this one again. [21:03] Fujiwara     Not that we'll be able to watch it. [21:06] Club D     Let's ask them how it went later. [21:08] Fujiwara     Yeah. [21:12] Toudou     There's a mountain ahead of us. Let us climb. [21:17] Toudou     To the highest point on this road,     the place closest to the sky. [21:22] Toudou     Let's race to see who gets there first. [21:25] Toudou     Don't hold anything back, Manami Sangaku. [21:29] Manami     Yes, sir. [21:31] Toudou     Attack me anytime. [21:33] Toudou     I'll crush each and every     one of your attempts. [23:13] Shinkai     Jinpachi, Yasutomo's glaring at you. [23:17] Toudou     I don't mind. [23:18] Toudou     Now, what will you do?     You're in check, Kuroda. [23:22] Arakita     Don't let him beat you, Kuroda. Get him. [23:26] Manami     The tension is intense. [23:33] Shinkai     Usakichi! SIGN    NEXT RIDE Finish Line SIGN    This is a work of fiction.

That's all? [02:26] Manami     Well, uh... Okay. [02:29] Toudou     Good. [02:30] Manami     He seems satisfied. [02:33] Manami     Maybe I'll go now while I have the chance.

[03:11] (Flashback) Toudou     Manami? [03:13] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I-I promised I'd return this to him     if I attended the Inter-High. [03:19] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It was originally Manami-kun's. [03:22] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He helped me when I was having     trouble in the mountains. [03:26] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Thanks to this, I've been able to work hard. [03:29] (Flashback) Toudou     So you're connected by fate, huh? [03:34] (Flashback) Toudou     Manami!

[03:41] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Thanks to you, I—     I'm not sure how to thank you, but... [03:49] Toudou     What did you do with that bottle? [03:52] Manami     I threw it away. [03:54] Manami     Hakone Academy placed second because he won. [03:59] Manami     Because I told him to come to the Inter-High. [04:02] Manami     Because that day... [04:06] Manami     I helped him by giving him that water bottle! [04:08] Manami     How could I keep that bottle around? [04:13] Toudou     I see. Let me ask you something, then. [04:16] Toudou     If you had known that would happen, [04:19] Toudou     and found him collapsed in the mountains,     what would you have done? [04:24] Toudou     Would you not have helped him? [04:29] Toudou     No, you would have. [04:31] Toudou     You can't ignore a person who's having     trouble in the mountains, Manami Sangaku. [04:38] Toudou     It means you didn't make the wrong choice. [04:41] Toudou     It takes only a moment,     and there's no going back. [04:47] Toudou     You gave everything you     had and lost. That's all. [04:54] Toudou     If the past continues to make     you suffer, it's simple. [04:58] Toudou     Take off your jersey.

[05:55] Toudou     I'm jealous you have someone to envy and despise. [06:02] Toudou     Your rival is close enough that you     can see and race with him anytime. [06:12] Manami     Toudou-san... [06:14] Toudou     There's not much left. [06:18] Toudou     Give me everything you've got,     Manami Sangaku! [06:23] Manami     Yes, sir. [06:30] Toudou     That's it. That expression, Manami. [06:34] Toudou     That's the one you should wear. [06:46] Toudou     I can't let you take the mountains, though. [06:49] Toudou     I am the Mountain God, Toudou Jinpachi!

[08:18] Kuroda     They called me a sports genius. [08:23] Kuroda     I started riding bikes in grade school     at a friend's invitation. [08:27] Kuroda     I was exceptional at that, too. [08:29] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're slow. Twist your body more. [08:33] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'll be waiting for you at the top, Izumida. [08:35] (Flashback) Izumida     Wait, Kuroda-kun. [08:39] Kuroda     Bike riding, huh? This isn't bad. [08:42] Kuroda     Other sports like basketball and baseball     can only be played in designated areas. [08:49] Kuroda     But as long as there's a road,     you can ride a bike anywhere. [08:55] Kuroda     A cage is too cramped for     my talent to explode in! [09:02] (Flashback) Kuroda     I've made my decision, Izumida. [09:05] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'm going to ride bikes. [09:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'll go to Hakone Academy     for high school with you. [09:12] (Flashback) Izumida     Kuroda-kun... [09:14] Kuroda     Izumida was serious. He was never     late and never missed class. SIGN    Difficult Book [09:17] Kuroda     His grades were good, and he was always     reading difficult books I'd never heard of. [09:22] Kuroda     Honestly, he wasn't great at     sports besides bike riding. [09:27] Kuroda     But his passion for bikes was absolute. [09:31] (Flashback) Kuroda     Teach me all the little rules, Touichirou. [09:35] (Flashback) Izumida     Okay. [09:36] (Flashback) Student     Kuroda, we heard you're     going to Hakone Academy. [09:38] (Flashback) Student     Is it for bike racing? [09:39] (Flashback) Student     You'll be a regular in no time. [09:43] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'll place first at the Inter-High. [09:48] Kuroda     Everyone wanted me to do well at     the prestigious Hakone Academy. [09:53] Kuroda     Which I thought was only natural. [09:56] (Flashback) Student     First-years, line up! [09:57] (Flashback) All     Yes, sir! [09:59] Kuroda     Until he appeared. [10:03] (Flashback) Arakita     You guys stink. [10:13] (Flashback) Arakita     I'll smell every one of you. [10:18] (Flashback) Student     Stink? You mean sweat? [10:20] (Flashback) Arakita     You smell like you'll quit right away. [10:23] (Flashback) Student     What? [10:25] (Flashback) Arakita     You smell like you'll     start skipping right away. [10:27] (Flashback) Student     What? [10:33] (Flashback) Arakita     You have promise. [10:35] (Flashback) Arakita     You smell like a hard worker. [10:37] (Flashback) Izumida     What? [10:38] (Flashback) Izumida     Th... Thank you! [10:42] (Flashback) Arakita     Shut up! You're too loud, idiot! [10:44] (Flashback) Kuroda     Senpai, how do I smell? [10:47] (Flashback) Arakita     Huh? [10:49] Kuroda     Exceptional talent? Immediate regular? [10:53] (Flashback) Kuroda     Do you smell anything? [10:55] (Flashback) Arakita     Yeah. [10:57] (Flashback) Arakita     You smell like a shitty elite. [10:59] (Flashback) Arakita     A stinking ball of pride. [11:03] (Flashback) Arakita     You stink like someone who thinks he's     a superstar at the center of the world. [11:10] (Flashback) Arakita     I bet you've mastered all kinds of     sports with that cool body of yours. [11:16] (Flashback) Arakita     Are you sure you won't quit cycling? [11:19] (Flashback) Arakita     And say something like,     "Basketball is the real me"? [11:24] (Flashback) Kuroda     That's not true! [11:29] Kuroda     He's fast. And he stopped just a hair short. [11:33] Kuroda     If he had extended his elbow another     millimeter, he would've hit me in the face. [11:38] (Flashback) Arakita     Was I right? [11:40] (Flashback) Arakita     Did you get mad because     I was right, first-year? [11:44] (Flashback) Arakita     Looks like I was right on the money. [11:47] (Flashback) Kuroda     Take it back. [11:49] (Flashback) Arakita     Bike riding is unforgiving and plain. [11:52] (Flashback) Arakita     Talent's not enough to get you anywhere. [11:54] (Flashback) Arakita     It'll make you want to quit.     Every day is difficult. [11:58] (Flashback) Arakita     If you can play all kinds of sports,     you'll end up running to one of those. [12:04] (Flashback) Arakita     Are you sure you can ride     a bike, you little baby? [12:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     Let go! [12:11] (Flashback) Arakita     What's wrong? Did you see a mosquito? [12:15] (Flashback) Arakita     I won't fight you. [12:17] (Flashback) Arakita     Fuku-chan told me not to. [12:20] (Flashback) Kuroda     I hate guys like you! [12:26] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're all talk! [12:27] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're always looking for     ways to upset people! [12:29] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're not even strong,     but you rely on violence! [12:32] (Flashback) Izumida     Kuroda-kun... [12:33] (Flashback) Student     Yikes. [12:36] (Flashback) Arakita     I told you I was right. [12:40] (Flashback) Arakita     Fine. [12:42] (Flashback) Arakita     I'll take you on anytime. [12:45] (Flashback) Arakita     I'll show you how I ride when     all I have is cycling! [12:52] Kuroda     That was how I met Arakita Yasutomo-san. [12:55] Arakita     I can smell it. I smell the finish line. [12:59] Arakita     We're getting closer to our last finish line! [13:03] Arakita     Fuku-chan! [13:05] Fukutomi     Yeah. [13:07] Arakita     Bring it on, Kuroda! [13:11] Kuroda     Arakita-san's razor-sharp cornering     is his greatest strength. [13:17] Kuroda     He's hardly applying the brakes. [13:18] Kuroda     Only when he feels the     load will lose out to the [13:21] Kuroda     sideways G's does he brake for a moment. [13:23] Kuroda     He's exceptionally good     at it, but that's not all. [13:28] Kuroda     He rides like his life depends on it. [13:30] Kuroda     Keep up, Ashikiba! [13:35] Kuroda     I abandoned the mountains.     I withdrew from that race... [13:38] Kuroda     To take this finish line. [13:42] Kuroda     To reach the first line in the parking     lot at the bottom of this hill. [13:50] Kuroda     And for one more thing. [13:52] Kuroda     To overcome you today! [13:58] Izumida     It should be soon. [14:00] Izumida     It's about the right time. [14:02] Shinkai     You're right. [14:03] Shinkai     I wonder if Juichi and Yasutomo will win. [14:06] Izumida     We won't lose. [14:09] Izumida     Yuki—Kuroda-kun is a climber, [14:12] Izumida     but he should've hung back during     the mountain stage in order to [14:14] Izumida     help the team achieve victory. [14:17] Shinkai     You two are close, right? [14:19] Izumida     Our houses are close. [14:21] Izumida     In the past, he would've charged ahead. [14:24] Izumida     But he's changed since then. [14:29] Izumida     Instead of seeing himself as the center, [14:32] Izumida     he's started viewing himself as     a part of the rest of the world. [14:36] Izumida     His ability to determine the appropriate     action he should take in those situations [14:39] Izumida     has become extremely accurate. [14:41] Izumida     He quit playing basketball     and baseball for fun. [14:45] Izumida     He started focusing on cycling. [14:48] Izumida     He can do it. [14:49] Izumida     I should know. [14:52] Izumida     He's always had great potential. [14:55] Arakita     Kuroda! [14:58] Kuroda     Arakita-san! [15:00] Arakita     His smell has changed.     Is he going to go for it now? [15:04] Kuroda     I'll overtake you. [15:08] Kuroda     I'll overtake you! [15:15] Arakita     He kept up with my corner entry! [15:19] Arakita     What's up with those legs? [15:21] Arakita     How are they so flexible? [15:25] Arakita     You're still pedaling? [15:27] Kuroda     Arakita-san, I hated you. [15:32] Kuroda     When I lost our first race,     I seriously thought about hitting you. [15:36] Kuroda     I didn't want to admit you     were right, so I trained. [15:42] (Flashback) Kuroda     Damn it. Why? [15:44] Kuroda     But I couldn't win. [15:46] Kuroda     That's why I made up my mind. [15:49] (Flashback) Arakita     What did you want to talk about, Kuroda? [15:53] (Flashback) Arakita     Huh? [15:57] (Flashback) Kuroda     Tell me how I can get stronger! [16:00] (Flashback) Kuroda     Please, Arakita-san! [16:02] Kuroda     I asked you directly how to become stronger. [16:06] (Flashback) Arakita     Ha, idiot! [16:08] (Flashback) Arakita     Don't think you can get whatever     you want just by bowing. [16:14] (Flashback) Arakita     But... [16:15] (Flashback) Arakita     Your desire must be pure if you're willing     to bow your head to the guy you hate most [16:20] (Flashback) Arakita     in order to become stronger. [16:22] (Flashback) Arakita     Not bad. [16:24] (Flashback) Arakita     You managed to throw away your pride. [16:27] (Flashback) Kuroda     What? [16:29] (Flashback) Arakita     Steal someone else's way to get stronger. [16:32] (Flashback) Arakita     That's what I did. [16:34] (Flashback) Arakita     You can do that, can't you? [16:37] (Flashback) Arakita     That's the type of person you are. [16:42] Kuroda     Arakita-san, I only have     gratitude for you now. [16:47] Kuroda     From you, I learned the joy     of being single-minded! [16:52] Arakita     Took you long enough, Kuroda. [16:55] Arakita     I can't believe you're     just growing now, idiot. [17:00] Arakita     Sorry, Fuku-chan! I let them get ahead of us! [17:04] Fukutomi     Five hundred meters left! [17:07] Kuroda     Go, Ashikiba! [17:07] Arakita     Go, Fuku-chan! [17:10] Kuroda     Fukutomi-san's fast! [17:14] Arakita     You got ahead of me on the last turn. [17:18] Arakita     I wasn't expecting that. [17:22] Arakita     But I'm not complimenting you. [17:24] Arakita     What are you, stupid? [17:26] Arakita     You took too long to go all out, idiot. [17:30] Kuroda     Arakita-san... [17:32] Kuroda     That's plenty. [17:34] Kuroda     Thank you. [17:37] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan, thank you for your superb     pulling and this superb position. [17:43] Ashikiba     I'll win. Don't worry. [17:46] Ashikiba     There's classical music     playing inside my head! [17:57] Ashikiba     My pulse is pounding. [18:00] Ashikiba     My body is overjoyed. [18:02] Ashikiba     My heart is dancing,     telling me to spring forward. [18:09] Ashikiba     Swing the baton in time with the rhythm [18:13] Ashikiba     with all your might, Ashikiba Takuto! [18:21] Fukutomi     He's starting a spurt.     It's his Metronome Dancing. [18:31] Ashikiba     Sorry. I'm going to win, Fukutomi-san. [18:34] Ashikiba     I never let anyone beat me twice. [18:39] Fukutomi     Is he trying to go even faster? [18:41] Ashikiba     That's the job of Hakone Academy's ace. [18:47] Fukutomi     Ashikiba! [19:12] Ashikiba     I finally won. [19:18] Ashikiba     I-I won. [19:22] Ashikiba     Fukutomi-san. [19:24] Fukutomi     Yeah. [19:29] Arakita     How could you lose, Fuku-chan? [19:33] Arakita     Don't laugh at me.

[09:38] Imaizumi     Looks like you're doing as you were told. [09:40] Imaizumi     Ten minutes before class,     20 minutes at lunch. [09:45] Imaizumi     It's pretty different, isn't it? [09:47] Imaizumi     Your muscles will remember     what the burden feels like. [09:50] Imaizumi     Rather than practicing with a heavy load, [09:53] Imaizumi     you'll learn more through frequent practice. [09:57] Imaizumi     That's your style, Sugimoto. [10:02] Sugimoto     Thank you, Imaizumi. [10:03] Sugimoto     Since I'm an experienced rider,     I knew I couldn't go easy on myself. [10:09] Imaizumi     I'm just giving you hints. [10:11] Imaizumi     You're the one who has to do it. [10:13] Imaizumi     You don't need to thank me. [10:16] Imaizumi     I was surprised when you came to me at the     end of last year and begged me to teach [10:19] Imaizumi     you how to become stronger, though. [10:22] Sugimoto     I'm serious about this. [10:25] Sugimoto     I saw what Onoda did at the Inter-High and     how everyone in the team believes in him. [10:30] Sugimoto     Even when they were battered,     they never gave up. [10:34] Sugimoto     Anyone would be inspired by that. [10:37] Sugimoto     After all, I'm still a     member of the Sohoku team. [10:42] Imaizumi     That side of you is still annoying. [10:45] Sugimoto     Besides, my brother is joining the team. [10:48] Sugimoto     I want to stay ahead of him.     I can't let him beat me. [10:52] Sugimoto     I should be a role model for him. [10:59] Sugimoto     Imaizumi... [11:00] Sugimoto     What do you think?     Have I gotten any stronger? [11:05] Imaizumi     You haven't noticed? [11:08] Imaizumi     You are getting stronger, one step at a time. [11:17] Teshima     Line up! This year's goal     is a repeat championship! [11:20] All     Yes, sir! [11:22] Teshima     We'll be setting our sights     on this summer's Inter-High! [11:25] Teshima     If you want to become a     regular, first-years, rise up! [11:28] Teshima     We'll give chances to the strong! [11:30] All     Yes, sir! SIGN    Japan National Interscholastic Athletic Meet     Inter-High Road Race     Boys' Competition Champion [11:31] Teshima     Don't forget! Carve it into your hearts! [11:34] Teshima     We are champions! [11:38] All     Yes, sir! [11:41] Teshima     For three weeks, [11:42] Teshima     the first-years will practice by themselves. [11:45] Teshima     Whether or not you'll be chosen to join     our practice will depend on the results [11:49] Teshima     of the first-year race three weeks from now. SIGN    Three Weeks Later [12:01] Teshima     Kanzaki-san. [12:03] Toji     Hey, Teshima. [12:05] Teshima     We appreciate you helping us again this year. [12:07] Toji     This time of year has     rolled around again, huh? [12:11] Toji     They all look so nervous. [12:14] Toji     Any interesting guys? [12:16] Teshima     Yes, a few. [12:20] Sugimoto     Teshima-san... [12:21] Sugimoto     I'd like to talk to you. [12:25] Sugimoto     I'll do better than third place this year. [12:27] Sugimoto     I want to become stronger, too. [12:29] Sugimoto     Let me ride in the first-year race. [12:35] Teshima     The first-year race will start in 20 minutes. [12:39] Teshima     Has everyone memorized the course? [12:41] All     Yes, sir! [12:42] Teshima     There are a lot of traffic     signals in the city stage. [12:45] Teshima     Ride carefully. [12:46] All     Yes, sir! [12:48] Sohoku A     I'm so nervous, I think I'm     going to forget the course. [12:50] Sohoku B     Huh? Where's my helmet? [12:52] Sohoku C     It must be in the club room.     There was one in there. [12:53] Sakamichi     The first-year race is about to start. [12:57] Sakamichi     I'm not going to be riding,     but I can sense how nervous they all are. [13:02] Sakamichi     I'm anxious to watch them, too. [13:05] Sakamichi     Oh, right. [13:09] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Starting tomorrow,     we're second-years, Onoda-kun. [13:11] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? [13:13] (Flashback) Naruko     Since we practiced over spring break,     there isn't really a clear distinction. [13:18] (Flashback) Naruko     But tomorrow is the opening ceremony.     We'll become second-years. [13:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [13:22] (Flashback) Naruko     Even though nothing seems to have     changed, we'll have juniors. [13:27] (Flashback) Naruko     Some of our seniors have left, too. [13:30] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [13:33] (Flashback) Naruko     We can't stay on the bottom forever. [13:36] (Flashback) Naruko     We'll have to look after     them and lift them up. [13:39] (Flashback) Naruko     We'll have to cheer them up     when they're feeling down, [13:42] (Flashback) Naruko     and praise them when they do well. [13:44] (Flashback) Naruko     Just like our seniors did for us. [13:49] (Flashback) Naruko     Oh, right. Onoda-kun, this is your first     time being a second-year in a club, right? [13:55] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [13:56] (Flashback) Naruko     Then let me tell you something. [13:58] (Flashback) Naruko     I was in a club during middle school, too. [14:02] (Flashback) Naruko     Even though you can thank your seniors,     you can't do for them what they did for you. [14:08] (Flashback) Naruko     So pass on their kindness to your juniors. [14:12] Sakamichi     My juniors... [14:14] (Flashback) Naruko     That's how your feelings pass     from one guy to another. [14:21] Sakamichi     To my juniors. [14:26] Sakamichi     D-Despite what he said, during the three     weeks leading up to the first-year race... [14:33] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Are you a first-year? [14:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm second-year Onoda. [14:36] (Flashback) Sakamichi     If there's anything you don't know, just ask. [14:40] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You! Just ask! [14:49] (Flashback) Sohoku     Oh, no! Did we make him mad? [14:51] Sakamichi     I failed to act like a senior! [14:56] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun's talking smoothly     with the first-years. [15:00] Sakamichi     I have to do something. [15:04] Sakamichi     I know. Their backs. [15:06] Sakamichi     I can energize them by     slapping them on the back. [15:11] Sohoku A     Sorry, sorry! [15:12] Sohoku B     What did you do? [15:15] Sakamichi     Oh, it's not... um... [15:16] Sakamichi     This isn't good. They're afraid of me. [15:20] Sakamichi     You had a speck of dust on your shoulder! [15:24] Sakamichi     Y-You... dust. [15:27] Sakamichi     Piece of dust. [15:30] Sohoku B     Onoda-san is terrifying! [15:32] Sakamichi     No! [15:35] Teshima     You seem to be having fun, Onoda. [15:39] Sakamichi     T-Teshima-san... [15:40] Teshima     Want to give it a try? [15:42] Sakamichi     Huh? Try what? [15:44] Teshima     Thed starter. [15:47] Teshima     Kinjou-san did it last year, remember? [15:49] Sakamichi     Oh, I couldn't. [15:51] Sakamichi     It's an important responsibility. [15:53] Sakamichi     That's the captain's job. [15:55] Teshima     Everyone's expecting great things from you. [15:56] Teshima     During these three weeks, rumors about     you have spread among the first-years. [16:01] Sakamichi     I knew it. [16:03] Sakamichi     Do they think I'm weird? [16:04] Teshima     You're the living legend     of the first-year race. [16:07] Sakamichi     What? [16:09] Teshima     You won the first-year race's     mountain stage as a beginner [16:13] Teshima     and rose to the level of the     Inter-High in the blink of an eye. [16:16] Teshima     You're the man who won the general     classification for Sohoku. [16:19] Teshima     You understand what it means     for you to be the starter. [16:23] Imaizumi     Just so you know... [16:25] Imaizumi     All the first-years ask     are questions about you. [16:29] Sakamichi     What? [16:30] Imaizumi     The first-years don't talk to     you because you're too amazing. [16:35] Imaizumi     So only you can do it. [16:37] Imaizumi     Raise their spirits. [16:41] Imaizumi     Show them how you feel. [16:44] Sakamichi     How I feel... [16:48] Sohoku     It's Onoda-san. [16:50] Sohoku     Onoda-san is starting the race? [16:53] Sakamichi     Everyone! [16:54] All     Yes, sir! [16:57] Sakamichi     Do your best. [16:59] Sakamichi     Good luck. [17:00] Sohoku B     Yes, sir! [17:01] Sakamichi     Good luck. [17:02] Sohoku C     I'll do my very best! [17:03] Sakamichi     Good luck. [17:05] Sakamichi     Good luck. [17:06] Sadatoki     Thank you, Onoda-san. [17:10] Naruko     He's got them really excited. [17:12] Imaizumi     That idiot. It's already past time. [17:21] Sakamichi     Did I even imagine that day... [17:25] Sakamichi     That I would meet Kanzaki-san,     Imaizumi-kun, and Naruko-kun? [17:30] Sakamichi     That this race I participated in     right after joining the club... [17:34] Sakamichi     That first step [17:36] Sakamichi     would lead me to such an expansive world? [17:40] Sakamichi     So to all the first-years... [17:44] Sakamichi     The first-year welcoming race [17:49] Sakamichi     will now begin! [17:53] Sakamichi     Good luck. [17:57] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun? [17:58] Sugimoto     Teshima-san gave me permission     to ride in the race. [18:03] Sugimoto     I'm going to take first and     become Sohoku's sixth man. [18:09] Sakamichi     What? [18:12] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, Sugimoto-kun is... [18:16] Teshima     Yeah, I gave him permission. [18:18] Sakamichi     He said he was going to become the     sixth man of the Inter-High team. [18:23] Teshima     I saw that in his eyes.     That's why I gave him permission. [18:29] Imaizumi     How could you not,     after seeing that serious face? [18:34] Naruko     Sugimoto's an interesting guy. [18:35] Naruko     Naturally, he must be aiming for first. [18:37] Sakamichi     That's what he said. [18:38] Naruko     Declaring he'll win a     race against his juniors? [18:41] Naruko     It may seem easy, but it's not. [18:44] Naruko     But he must know that.     After all, he's an experienced rider. [18:53] Sugimoto     The city stage has a lot of traffic lights,     so we'll take it slow here. [18:57] Sugimoto     My second first-year race has started. [19:02] Sugimoto     There's no turning back now. [19:05] Sugimoto     I'm a second-year, too.     I'll show them what I can do. [19:09] Sugimoto     I'll win my first race ever. [19:12] Sugimoto     This is how I'll win. [19:14] Sugimoto     My style favors long rides, so I'll take     the lead partway through the race, and... [19:17] Gori     Senpai! [19:20] Sawada     Don't you think we're going too slow? [19:22] Sugita     Sawada, Gorizo... [19:24] Gori     I'll switch with you. [19:26] Sawada     Me, too. [19:27] Sugimoto     Wait! Go slower! [19:29] Sugimoto     We're still in the city! [19:41] Sugimoto     There's no passing until     we reach the rice paddies! [19:43] Sugimoto     Didn't you see that signal? Stop! [19:47] Sawada     We saw it, but we're riding fast     anyway to pull away from the pack. [19:53] Sawada     Senpai, don't you want to win, too? [19:58] Sugimoto     I... [19:59] Sawada     The three of us can rotate     until the finish line. [20:04] Sawada     No one's watching. [20:08] Sawada     Come on, Senpai. [20:12] Sugimoto     I desperately want to win. [20:19] Sugimoto     But I reject your offer. [20:21] Sugimoto     No matter what, I never break the rules. [20:27] Sugimoto     Now reduce your speed     and wait for the others. [20:31] Naruko     Sawada and Gorizo will be     the first to make a move. [20:34] Naruko     But they're cunning. [20:38] Naruko     I hope Sugimoto doesn't     accept any shady offers. [20:40] Imaizumi     Don't worry about him. [20:42] Imaizumi     He's more serious than he looks. [20:49] Imaizumi     Although whether or not he'll win     is a different matter entirely. [20:56] Sugimoto     Once we cross the bridge,     the real race will start. [21:01] Sugimoto     What? [21:04] Teshima     The favorites in this race should     be making their move now. [21:11] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I have a request. [21:14] (Flashback) Teshima     What is it? [21:15] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I heard you hold a first-year race. [21:19] (Flashback) Teshima     Yeah. [21:21] (Flashback) Kaburagi     If Danchiku and I take first and second, [21:24] (Flashback) Kaburagi     can you guarantee we'll     be on the Inter-High team? [21:29] (Flashback) Teshima     Sure, I promise. [21:31] (Flashback) Teshima     You're on the team if you     finish first and second. [21:37] Sugimoto     Kaburagi and Danchiku... [21:39] Sugimoto     They're fast! [23:14] Naruko     We're finally second-years. [23:17] Sakamichi     I hope I can talk to the first-years. [23:20] Naruko     We're counting on you, Onoda-senpai. [23:24] Sakamichi     L-Leave it to me, Naruko-senpai. [23:29] Imaizumi     What are guys doing? Hurry up and eat. [23:31] Both     Sorry, Imaizumi-senpai. [23:35] Imaizumi     Okay.

[04:18] Naruko     Aw, no. [04:19] Naruko     Is he out of strength? He's wobbling. [04:22] Naruko     What on earth is he doing? [04:30] Naruko     No way! He passed Kaburagi and Danchiku!

[04:51] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I don't have time to worry about     being a second-year or my pride. [04:56] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I know it's an unreasonable request, but I... [05:03] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Actually, the rest is just     my delusion, so forget it. [05:07] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I'll do my best. [05:09] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I see. Good luck. [05:11] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Yeah. Watch me from the van. [05:15] Sugimoto     I'll show you. [05:18] Sugimoto     I'd seen Imaizumi in several     races in Chiba before. [05:23] Sugimoto     He was tall, cool, and     the center of attention. [05:27] Sugimoto     I thought he and I had nothing in common. [05:30] Sugimoto     But we got into the same high     school and joined the same club. [05:34] Sugimoto     Imaizumi, if I'm able to become the     sixth man and ride in the Inter-High, [05:39] Sugimoto     I want to ride as hard as I can. [05:43] Sugimoto     I'll ride with all my might for     the team, and in the end— [05:46] Sugimoto     Actually, this might be delusional. [05:50] Sugimoto     We're counting on you, Imaizumi! [05:52] Imaizumi     I know, Teru! [05:56] Sugimoto     I hope I can push your back     just before the finish line. [06:02] Sugimoto     Imaizumi... [06:05] Naruko     He's pulling ahead again! [06:07] Naruko     Not bad, Sugimoto! [06:08] Sakamichi     But the guys behind him seem like     they have a lot of strength left. [06:14] Imaizumi     You're exactly right, Onoda. [06:17] Imaizumi     It's not that they can't go after him. [06:19] Imaizumi     They're choosing not to. [06:22] Sakamichi     Why would they do that? [06:23] Imaizumi     They still have half the course left, [06:25] Imaizumi     and the second half includes     the brutal Minegayama. [06:28] Imaizumi     If he's weak, then letting him get     away won't have any consequences. [06:31] Imaizumi     He'll quickly exhaust himself     and come falling back. [06:33] Imaizumi     Needlessly exerting themselves     would be a waste. [06:35] Imaizumi     They have the advantage     of ability and numbers. [06:38] Imaizumi     If it comes down to it, they can     make up a few minutes' difference. [06:41] Imaizumi     That's what they're thinking. [06:43] Imaizumi     They're treating him like     a bird inside a birdcage. [06:46] Imaizumi     No matter how much it flaps     its wings, it can't fly. [06:48] Imaizumi     But that can lead to a sudden comeback [06:53] Imaizumi     when they miscalculate that bird's strength. [06:56] Imaizumi     Sugimoto is a weak sprinter. [07:00] Imaizumi     They must've thought the same thing. [07:02] Imaizumi     But his legs are built for long rides. [07:06] Imaizumi     He can maintain a high average     speed over a long period of time. [07:09] Imaizumi     Sugimoto's probably gone much farther     ahead than they're imagining. [07:15] Sugimoto     The dam! I made it to the dam. SIGN    Kameishi Dam Parking Lot [07:17] Sugimoto     Now I just have to circle around     it and climb up Minegayama. [07:21] Sugimoto     I'm doing well. [07:22] Sugimoto     I can do it. [07:26] Kaburagi     This isn't good. This doesn't feel right. [07:28] Kaburagi     Danchiku, I judged him to be beneath our     concern with the weak way he passed us. [07:33] Kaburagi     But his legs might be... [07:37] Teshima     There's no way they won't notice. [07:42] Kaburagi     Have you loosened up yet, Danchiku? [07:44] Danchiku     Yeah. That was enough to relax me. [07:48] Kaburagi     Danchiku's shackles are off. [07:52] Danchiku     Let's ride all out to catch him, Issa! [07:55] Kaburagi     Yeah, Danchiku! [07:58] Kaburagi     Go! [08:00] Sakamichi     They're fast! [08:01] Naruko     They made it to the dam in no time! [08:05] Kaburagi     We still haven't caught up yet, Danchiku. [08:07] Kaburagi     He's way faster than we thought. [08:11] Kaburagi     But we're even faster. [08:14] Kaburagi     When Danchiku's freed from     the shackles of anxiety, [08:16] Kaburagi     he rides so quickly, I'd fall     behind if I wasn't careful. [08:20] Kaburagi     Roar, Danchiku!

[08:27] Teshima     Team SS the one of the strongest     major teams in Chiba, [08:30] Teshima     composed of riders ranging from     middle school students to adults. [08:34] Teshima     It has a fifteen-member roster, [08:35] Teshima     and every month they     race to compete for slots. [08:38] Teshima     And they've remained on the team. [08:40] Sakamichi     As middle school students? [08:42] Teshima     The "SS" in their name     stands for "Speed Shot." [08:47] Teshima     They take down their prey at top speed. [08:51] Kaburagi     Hey, you had me scared for a moment. [08:53] Kaburagi     If we'd been just a few minutes slower... [08:57] Kaburagi     You might've gotten us. [08:59] Naruko     They passed Sugimoto in a second! [09:01] Sakamichi     He managed to get ahead of them, too. [09:03] Imaizumi     Sugimoto... [09:13] Imaizumi     After them, Sugimoto! [09:16] Imaizumi     Go after their butts! [09:19] Imaizumi     If you don't chase now, you'll     fall behind completely! [09:21] Imaizumi     Your defeat will be certain! [09:24] Imaizumi     Is it hard? Don't think you can do it? [09:25] Imaizumi     Whenever you feel that way, just remember... [09:27] Imaizumi     It's hard for you, but it's     just as hard for them! [09:32] Imaizumi     Whoever manages to hold on wins! [09:35] Sugimoto     Don't let go, don't let go! [09:38] Sugimoto     I'm going to be the sixth man. [09:40] Sugimoto     Thank you, Imaizumi. [09:42] Naruko     He got a second wind! [09:44] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun's accelerating again! [09:49] Naruko     What, hotshot? You're not putting on airs? [09:52] Sakamichi     That was amazing. You were     so passionate just now. [09:54] Imaizumi     Don't mock me. [09:55] Imaizumi     I was just telling him     it's time to go for it. [10:00] Toji     Telling him how he felt? [10:03] Toji     These guys are carrying on the spirit     of Sohoku High School, Kinjou. [10:08] Imaizumi     I'm not trying to provide     Sugimoto any extra support. [10:12] Imaizumi     If he wins, it'll be because he caught up. [10:16] Imaizumi     He's desperately trying to catch up now,     but there's no telling if he will. [10:21] Sugimoto     Be strong, be strong. [10:27] Sugimoto     I have to chase after them now. [10:29] Sugimoto     If I don't catch up, I don't stand a chance. [10:31] Sugimoto     I'm riding so I can claim     one of those jerseys. [10:34] Sugimoto     There's two of them. [10:36] Sugimoto     No, don't think about it. [10:40] Sugimoto     Just catch up. Catch up. [10:42] Sugimoto     I can do it. [10:43] Sugimoto     Be strong, be strong. [10:45] Sugimoto     Everyone's watching from behind. [10:47] Sugimoto     Once I make it over this hill, I'll see them. [10:51] Sugimoto     I don't see them. They're fast. [10:54] Sugimoto     My legs aren't strong enough to catch them. [10:57] Sugimoto     I told you not to think! [10:59] Sugimoto     I'll catch up. [11:00] Sugimoto     It's hard for them, too. It must be. [11:02] Sugimoto     This race is my last chance. [11:07] Toji     What should we do, Teshima? [11:10] Teshima     Go after the leaders. [11:13] Teshima     Realistically, Sugimoto won't     catch up to Kaburagi and Danchiku. [11:17] Teshima     They should already be beginning the     final climb up Minegayama. SIGN    Minegayama SIGN    Kameishi Dam Entrance [11:21] Sakamichi     But Sugimoto-kun is— [11:23] Teshima     We have to watch the leaders ride. [11:25] Teshima     This race will determine the final     member of the Inter-High team. [11:30] Toji     Got it. [11:34] Sugimoto     Wait, what? [11:36] Sugimoto     Huh? Guys? [11:38] Sugimoto     Wait. [11:46] Sugimoto     Wait. This is the last... [11:52] Suigmoto     Wait, Imaizumi! [11:55] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun stopped pedaling. [11:58] Sakamichi     Can't we turn the car around and— [12:01] Teshima     Onoda, this is a race. [12:03] Teshima     Knowing this could happen,     Sugimoto chose to participate. [12:08] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [12:11] Imaizumi     I thought he could do more. [12:19] Imaizumi     Kinjou-san said Sohoku High School     riders support each other. [12:25] Imaizumi     I thought he could do better. [12:28] Imaizumi     That he had the ability to do better     if he had teammates to help him. [12:34] Imaizumi     If he had teammates supporting him,     then this race... [12:43] Sadatoki     All right. [12:45] Sadatoki     I finally caught up. [12:46] Sadatoki     You really are fast, Brother. [12:50] Sugimoto     Sadatoki... SIGN    Minegayama [12:57] Kaburagi     No one's pursuing us. [12:58] Kaburagi     Once we reach the top of this mountain, [13:00] Kaburagi     it's all downhill to the     finish line, Danchiku. [13:03] Kaburagi     This race is ours. [13:06] Kaburagi     We're going to the Inter-High, Danchiku. [13:10] Danchiku     Don't celebrate so much, Issa.     You're like a child. [13:12] Kaburagi     When would I celebrate, if not now? [13:15] Kaburagi     I am a child, Danchiku. [13:17] Kaburagi     One who's been presented     with all the toys he wanted [13:19] Kaburagi     and told to play with them     to his heart's content. [13:22] Kaburagi     I am a child! [13:25] Kaburagi     I'm excited. [13:26] Kaburagi     I'm getting chills, Danchiku. [13:29] Kaburagi     I finally get to go. [13:31] Kaburagi     The race I saw when I tagged along     on my father's business trip [13:33] Kaburagi     was my first Inter-High. [13:36] Kaburagi     I was dumbfounded. [13:37] Kaburagi     I was so excited, I leaped into the air. [13:39] Kaburagi     It blew away my concepts     of "fast" and "strong." [13:44] Kaburagi     It was an awesome race. [13:47] Kaburagi     I decided then that I would     participate in that race. [13:51] Kaburagi     Not that I could, but that I would. [13:52] Kaburagi     I'd get stronger and participate. [13:56] Kaburagi     There are plenty of strong riders     in the world, but that's fine. [14:00] Kaburagi     I've become super strong. [14:02] Kaburagi     I'll battle them and win. [14:04] Kaburagi     Conquering the Inter-High is my goal! [14:09] Kaburagi     Let's do it. We can do it, Danchiku. [14:11] Kaburagi     After all, I have you with me. [14:14] Danchiku     Stop. You're embarrassing me. [14:18] Sakamichi     Huh? [14:19] Naruko     They're falling back. [14:21] Kaburagi     Teshima-san! [14:22] Teshima     What is it? [14:23] Kaburagi     You haven't forgotten our promise, have you? [14:26] Kaburagi     If Danchiku and I finish first     and second in this race, [14:30] Kaburagi     you'll let both of us     onto the Inter-High team. [14:32] Teshima     Yeah. [14:33] Kaburagi     All right! [14:34] Kaburagi     I, Kaburagi Issa, along with Danchiku,     will ride in the Inter-High! [14:38] Naruko     Hey, what kind of promise is that? [14:40] Sakamichi     B-Both of them? Does that mean someone     from the current lineup is out? [14:44] Teshima     It's a world dictated by ability. It happens. [14:46] Sakamichi     Um, who is it? Who is it? [14:49] Sakamichi     It's me, isn't it? [14:52] Sakamichi     Good luck, everyone. [14:54] Imaizumi     He's so mentally weak. [14:56] Kaburagi     Onoda-san, it's on. [14:57] Kaburagi     I went to see the Inter-High last year. [15:01] Kaburagi     The finish line was at Mt. Fuji. [15:03] Kaburagi     Honestly, it was a mesmerizing race. [15:06] Kaburagi     Indescribably so. [15:09] Kaburagi     My entire body went numb. [15:10] Kaburagi     I became depressed on the way home     and couldn't sleep for three days. [15:15] Kaburagi     I was frustrated from the bottom of     my heart that I wasn't on that stage. [15:20] Kaburagi     Because I was shown that you     were far stronger than me. [15:25] Kaburagi     That's why... [15:29] Kaburagi     I'll surpass you at this summer's Inter-High. [15:33] Kaburagi     I'll surpass you! [15:36] Kaburagi     What's your goal for this year's Inter-High? [15:40] Kaburagi     A second consecutive general     classification victory? [15:44] Sakamichi     I don't have to win. [15:48] Sakamichi     I want to be with Imaizumi-kun      and Naruko-kun, [15:50] Sakamichi     Teshima-san and Aoyagi-san, [15:53] Sakamichi     riding together as hard we can. [15:55] Sakamichi     I want to give everything I have     against Manami-kun and Midousuji-kun. [15:59] Sakamichi     And in the end, I hope someone on our team      has the chance to finish first. [16:04] Sakamichi     Also, this is just me being greedy, but     I'd like to report to the upperclassmen... [16:11] Sakamichi     To Makishima-san... [16:13] Sakamichi     That we did it. [16:16] Kaburagi     Report? [16:20] Imaizumi     You are greedy. You couldn't be greedier. [16:25] Naruko     We'll have to practice super hard, Onoda-kun. [16:29] Sakamichi     Yeah. [16:30] Kaburagi     What kind of solidarity is this? [16:32] Teshima     Kaburagi! [16:35] Teshima     Last year we reeled in a thin thread that     was about to break and won together. [16:41] Teshima     It may seem unrefined, but that's     how Sohoku High School races. [16:45] Teshima     Sound lame? [16:46] Teshima     Kaburagi, you already think     you've won, even though [16:50] Teshima     you haven't broken the finish line's tape. [16:52] Kaburagi     What? [16:53] Teshima     Sugimoto, the man you passed and     left behind, may be unreliable, [16:58] Teshima     but he possesses the spirit     of Sohoku High School. [17:01] Teshima     If he hasn't given up on winning     this race, then he'll come. [17:07] Teshima     He'll catch up to you. [17:10] Kaburagi     Is that a threat? [17:11] Kaburagi     That's impossible. [17:13] Kaburagi     In other words, you want me     to stop talking and ride. [17:17] Kaburagi     I understand. Sorry! [17:19] Kaburagi     Let's head to the finish line, Danchiku! [17:21] Danchiku     Yeah! [17:22] Teshima     A threat? [17:24] Teshima     No. [17:29] Teshima     I've just seen miracles like     that happen plenty of times. [17:34] Imaizumi     Sugimoto. [17:35] Naruko     Is it Sugimoto? [17:36] Sakamichi     Sadatoki-kun! [17:38] Sugimoto     Not yet. I won't give up yet. [17:40] Sadatoki     I see them, Brother! It's the van. [17:42] Teshima     I can't believe the brothers     caught up together. [17:45] Teshima     This is unexpected. [17:46] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun caught up! [17:51] Sugimoto     I'll become the sixth man. [17:53] Naruko     Their synchronization is unbelievable. [17:55] Sakamichi     Amazing. Sugimoto-kun hasn't given up yet. [17:59] Naruko     But there's two more kilometers to the peak. [18:01] Naruko     Once they're past that, it's downhill. [18:03] Naruko     Sugimoto's legs aren't     enough to close the gap. [18:05] Naruko     How much they can catch up to Kaburagi     and Danchiku on this climb will be key. [18:09] Imaizumi     Sugimoto... and his brother. [18:12] Imaizumi     The brothers' synchronization... [18:14] Imaizumi     When he came to practice before,     their synchronization was inefficient. [18:21] Imaizumi     But now both of them have got it down. [18:25] Imaizumi     They must've practiced     together for this moment. [18:27] Imaizumi     No. [18:28] Imaizumi     Sugimoto's will raised them up. [18:31] Imaizumi     It's this situation that gave rise to it. [18:33] Sugimoto     I'll become the sixth man. [18:36] Sugimoto     Go! Go, Sadatoki! [18:38] Sadatoki     Yeah, Brother! [18:42] Sadatoki     Brother, we'll catch up to     Aburagi-kun and Danchiku-kun. [18:47] Sugimoto     I'm counting on you, Sadatoki.     But it's Kaburagi. [18:51] Sugimoto     Thank you, Sadatoki. [18:54] Sugimoto     If you hadn't caught up to me then,     I would've given up on this race. [18:59] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Sadatoki, how? Did you     make it here on your own? [19:04] (Flashback) Sadatoki     Yeah. [19:05] (Flashback) Sadatoki     I wanted to ride with you, Brother. [19:09] Sugimoto     In that moment, I felt as though one strand     of the broken string inside my heart [19:14] Sugimoto     was still connected. [19:17] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Sadatoki, can you keep riding? [19:20] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Kaburagi and Danchiku just passed me. [19:23] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I want to catch up and pass them again. [19:27] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Will you help me, Sadatoki? [19:29] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I want to go to the Inter-High     as the sixth man. [19:33] Sadatoki     That was the first time. The first! [19:35] Sugimoto     What? [19:36] Sadatoki     You're cool and strong and know everything. [19:40] Sadatoki     You've always pulled me forward. [19:42] Sadatoki     But that's the first time     you've asked me for something. [19:47] Sadatoki     So, I'll do it. I promise I'll take you there. [19:52] Sugimoto     Sadatoki! [19:55] Sadatoki     Also, um... [19:58] Sadatoki     You really do look cool in that jersey. [20:01] Sadatoki     It looks great on you, Brother! [20:04] Sugimoto     When you were little,     you were such a crybaby. [20:08] Sugimoto     You followed me around saying,     "I can't," and, "I'm not confident." [20:14] Sugimoto     It's okay. It's okay now, Sadatoki. [20:18] Sugimoto     You can do anything. [20:20] Sugimoto     Your brother can attest to that. [20:23] Sugimoto     Follow me. You can do it, Sadatoki. [20:25] Sugimoto     We'll cross the finish line together. [20:30] Sadatoki     Yeah! [20:31] Sugimoto     Even though Imaizumi tried to cheer     me up, my legs stopped moving once. [20:36] Sugimoto     But Sadatoki saved me. [20:40] Sugimoto     For Sadatoki's sake, if it's still possible, [20:43] Sugimoto     I want to do my best to reel in     this last thread one more time. [20:49] Sugimoto     One more time! [20:54] Teshima     Sugimoto caught up to Kaburagi and     Danchiku just 50 meters before the peak! [21:00] Naruko     Sugimoto's amazing! [21:02] Sakamichi     Sadatoki-kun and Sugimoto-kun     are both amazing! [21:06] Toji     Was this unexpected, too, Teshima? [21:08] Teshima     Road races certainly are     fantastic, aren't they? [21:15] Kaburagi     Damn it! I underestimated them. [21:18] Kaburagi     Who's that big guy? [21:19] Sugimoto     Let's head to the finish line, Sadatoki! [21:21] Sadatoki     Yeah, Brother! [21:23] Kaburagi     Pedal harder! Faster, Danchiku! [21:26] Teshima     They're neck and neck at the peak! [21:28] Teshima     Now it's downhill to the finish line! [23:03] Naruko     I've been thinking, since we're the     new generation of Sohoku High School, [23:06] Naruko     why don't we change our jersey's color? [23:09] Naruko     A flashy red would be cool. [23:10] Imaizumi     You have terrible taste. Blue is better. [23:13] Naruko     Then we'd be the same as     Hakone Academy High School. [23:16] Naruko     Onoda-kun, what do you think? [23:18] Sakamichi     Well, red is flashy, but blue is cool. [23:22] Sakamichi     But I like yellow because it's     a modest but noble color. [23:27] Sakamichi     I guess you could say it's     simultaneously cool and cute. [23:31] Sakamichi     What do you guys think? [23:33] Both     Yellow's good.

SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    RIDE.11 Conclusion [01:59] Naruko     Now that they're on the downhill slope,     Kaburagi and Danchiku are accelerating! [02:02] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun and his brother     are falling behind! [02:04] Teshima     They're as good as you'd     expect going downhill. [02:08] Teshima     What do you think will happen, Imaizumi? [02:11] Imaizumi     They'll fall behind. [02:12] Sakamichi     What? [02:13] Imaizumi     But they'll probably catch     up on the next corner. [02:22] Kaburagi     Who are these guys? [02:24] Sugimoto     Don't let go. Don't let go, Sadatoki. [02:26] Sugimoto     Let's go to the finish line. [02:28] Sadatoki     Yeah. [02:30] Imaizumi     Team SS is a mixed team. [02:33] Imaizumi     Since their fifteen members are     determined through races, [02:36] Imaizumi     they've probably never     experienced that feeling... [02:43] Imaizumi     Of riding with your friends. [02:45] Imaizumi     Currently, Kaburagi and     Danchiku are stronger. [02:50] Imaizumi     But if Sugimoto has any chance at victory, [02:54] Imaizumi     it's because their wavering spirits     don't understand that feeling. [02:58] Kaburagi     They're not good. [02:59] Kaburagi     They're not supposed to be good. [03:01] Kaburagi     So how did they catch up? [03:03] Kaburagi     How are they neck and neck with us? [03:07] Kaburagi     Why are you riding in front of us? [03:10] Danchiku     Issa! [03:13] Danchiku     Don't waver! [03:14] Danchiku     Focus on the race! [03:15] Danchiku     You saw some guy pass you. That's all! [03:18] ---     Danchiku... [03:19] Danchiku     Face forward and think only of winning. [03:21] Danchiku     We can do this. Don't worry. [03:24] Danchiku     You're fast. [03:27] Danchiku     You've practiced hard. [03:29] Danchiku     You've endured thousands     of difficult moments. [03:32] Danchiku     Aren't you going to race in the Inter-High? [03:35] Danchiku     So what's wrong with you? [03:37] Danchiku     Frolic more! [03:39] Danchiku     You're a genius, Kaburagi! [03:46] Kaburagi     That did the trick. [03:48] Kaburagi     I'm fast? I'm a genius? [03:51] Kaburagi     I know. [03:53] Kaburagi     I know that better than     anyone else, Danchiku! [03:56] Kaburagi     Yeah! [03:59] Danchiku     Issa, I want to see you frolic like a child. [04:05] Danchiku     I want to see you refuse to     shrink from strong opponents... [04:09] Danchiku     At this year's Inter-High. [04:11] Danchiku     That's why I'm riding with you. [04:13] Danchiku     Switch with me, Issa. I'll pull. [04:15] Danchiku     The downhill is ending. [04:17] Danchiku     I'll make sure you take first place! [04:20] Sugimoto     It's the final spurt! Dig deep, Sadatoki! [04:23] Sadatoki     Yeah! [04:24] Sugimoto     I'm not very good at goal sprints,     but I'll overcome that weakness now. [04:30] Sugimoto     I don't have time for excuses. [04:34] Teshima     At the bottom of the hill     is Fumotogaoka Park. [04:37] Teshima     There's a short 200-meter climb from there. [04:42] Teshima     It's the final goal sprint     of the first-year race! [04:47] Sakamichi     Danchiku-kun's in front! [04:49] Naruko     Kaburagi-kun's behind him!     They're going for the one-two finish! [04:53] Sakamichi     Sadatoki's falling back! [04:56] Kaburagi     We're going to the Inter-High, Danchiku! [04:59] Kaburagi     We'll finish first and second! [05:03] Naruko     From behind Danchiku, who was     pulling with all his strength... [05:07] Danchiku     Go, Issa! [05:08] Naruko     The Kaburagi Super Express     is leaving the station! [05:11] Kaburagi     Follow me, Danchiku! [05:13] Kaburagi     It's ours. It's perfect. [05:16] Kaburagi     We're going to make     Sohoku High School stronger. [05:20] Kaburagi     Come, Danchiku! It's just us now! [05:23] Danchiku     Yeah! [05:27] Danchiku     Pedal, Issa! Don't worry about me! [05:30] Danchiku     Pedal! [05:31] Naruko     Sugimoto passed him without     any help from Sadatoki! [05:35] Teshima     It's a long sprint. [05:36] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun. [05:38] Imaizumi     Your strength is long rides. [05:41] Imaizumi     Sugimoto, are you making your     last spurt a long sprint, too? [05:47] Sadatoki     Sorry I couldn't help     you in the end, Brother. [05:51] Sugimoto     Thank you, Sadatoki. [05:53] Sugimoto     If you hadn't pulled for me, I wouldn't     have caught up to them on Minegayama. [05:58] Sugimoto     Thank you, Imaizumi. [06:00] Sugimoto     If you hadn't pushed my back then,     I would've given up. [06:06] Sugimoto     I haven't done a single thing. [06:08] Sugimoto     Not a single thing. [06:11] Sugimoto     So... [06:13] Teshima     Sugimoto! [06:15] Both     He caught up! [06:17] Kaburagi     You can't be serious! [06:19] Teshima     Only forty meters left! [06:24] Kaburagi     I never realized how difficult it would be     to prove I'm the fastest man in this race. [06:30] Teshima     Twenty meters left! [06:31] Kaburagi     Who the hell is this guy? [06:33] Kaburagi     He should just fall back already. [06:35] Kaburagi     How long will he endure? [06:36] Kaburagi     Until we reach that line? [06:38] Teshima     Ten! [06:39] Sugimoto     It's the goal. The finish line. [06:41] Sugimoto     I'll throw everything away if     it means I'll reach it first! [06:45] Kaburagi     No way! I'm the man who will     surpass Onoda Sakamichi! [06:50] Sugimoto     I'm going to be the sixth... [06:53] Sugimoto     The sixth man! [07:00] Kaburagi     Yeah! [07:10] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun! [07:11] Teshima     Are you okay, Sugimoto? [07:15] Sugimoto     I felt it. [07:17] Sugimoto     I was looking down when I crossed     the finish line, so I couldn't tell. [07:22] Sugimoto     But I... [07:25] Sugimoto     I won. [07:28] Sugimoto     I took first, right? [07:32] Naruko     He didn't hear Kaburagi yell. [07:38] Sugimoto     I did it! I'm going to the Inter-High! [07:42] Sugimoto     I did it! I did it! [07:45] Sugimoto     I did it! [07:47] Imaizumi     Sugimoto. [07:50] Imaizumi     You did your best. [07:51] Sugimoto     I did it. [07:54] Sugimoto     I did it, Imaizumi. Thank you. [07:57] Sugimoto     Thank you, thank you. [07:59] Sugimoto     Words can't express how grateful I am. [08:05] Sugimoto     Huh? [08:07] Sugimoto     Why do you all look so uneasy? [08:11] Sugimoto     Is it because you don't want     me to be the sixth man? [08:14] Sugimoto     Don't worry. I can do it. [08:17] Sugimoto     I, Sugimoto Terufumi,     will become even stronger. [08:37] Kaburagi     We did it. [08:50] Sugimoto     I see. [08:53] Sugimoto     I wasn't first. [08:57] Sakamichi     B-But you were amazing. [09:01] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun, you were amazing. [09:02] Naruko     It's true. [09:04] Naruko     You rode really well. [09:06] Naruko     I was shouting when you caught up at the end. [09:09] Naruko     Seriously. [09:15] Sugimoto     That was close. Second, huh? [09:19] Sugimoto     That was truly close. [09:23] Sugimoto     I almost had it. [09:24] Sugimoto     Even I was confused. [09:28] Sugimoto     Sorry, guys. Did I get your hopes up? [09:32] Sugimoto     Sorry, sorry. [09:34] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, Sugimoto-kun did his best. [09:37] Sakamichi     He tried really, really hard. [09:39] Sakamichi     So, uh... [09:42] Sakamichi     Why don't we wait until the training camp      to decide the Inter-High team? [09:48] Teshima     Until the training camp? [09:49] Sakamichi     Last year, Kinjou-san ultimately decided— [09:52] Sugimoto     Onoda... [09:56] Sugimoto     I was in this race with a different intention. [10:01] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun... [10:03] Sugimoto     Teshima-san gave me a chance     to ride in this race. [10:10] Sugimoto     His condition was that I take first. [10:16] Sugimoto     It was my last chance. [10:19] Sugimoto     Ultimately, though, there is no next time. [10:23] Sugimoto     I couldn't do anything. [10:29] Imaizumi     Sugimoto... [10:31] Imaizumi     You worked diligently every day. [10:35] Imaizumi     You're the only one who kept up     with their initial acceleration. [10:38] Imaizumi     You're the one who followed     Sadatoki through the mountains [10:41] Imaizumi     and caught up to them again. [10:43] Imaizumi     During the final downhill     sprint to the finish line, [10:47] Imaizumi     it wasn't because of anyone else's     strength or thanks to anyone else. [10:50] Imaizumi     You're the one who was riding. [10:51] Imaizumi     Be proud. You had the     strongest ride in this race. [10:56] Sugimoto     Thanks, Imaizumi. [10:59] Sugimoto     Sorry I couldn't win after all the advice you gave me. [11:04] Sugimoto     I'm going to go cool down. [11:08] Sadatoki     Brother... [11:12] Imaizumi     Sugimoto, I don't care if you win or     lose as long as the team gets stronger. [11:19] Imaizumi     Or so I thought, but... [11:23] Imaizumi     During the final sprint,     I was hoping you'd win. [11:31] Sugimoto     I'm tired. I'm exhausted. [11:35] Sugimoto     I got second. [11:36] Sugimoto     I did everything I could. [11:40] Sugimoto     I did everything I could! [11:51] Teshima     That was an impressive victory, Kaburagi. [11:53] Kaburagi     Thanks. [11:55] Teshima     But since Danchiku placed third, you didn't     fulfill our agreement that a one-two finish [11:59] Teshima     meant both of you could become members. [12:03] Teshima     Will you ride alone? [12:05] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [12:07] Danchiku     Good, Issa. [12:11] Teshima     Get stronger. [12:12] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [12:15] Miki     It's nearly time. [12:16] Aya     Yeah. [12:17] Teshima     These are the Inter-High jerseys     passed down to us from our seniors. [12:24] Teshima     Winner of the first-year race, Kaburagi Issa. [12:27] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [12:34] Teshima     You'll be wearing this. Take it. [12:39] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [12:41] Miki     They're here. [12:42] Aya     Vying for a consecutive victory... [12:44] Miki     The six members of the new     Sohoku High School team. [12:51] Kaburagi     I did it, I did it! [12:53] Kaburagi     I did it! [12:56] Kaburagi     Naturally, I intended to become a member,     but now that I am one, I'm ecstatic. [13:01] Kaburagi     I tried on my jersey a     bunch of times yesterday. [13:04] Danchiku     Keep it down. Everyone will hear you. [13:08] Kaburagi     Listen to this! I'm going     to be in the Inter-High! [13:10] Danchiku     He's shouting even louder? [13:12] Kaburagi     As one of the champions, [13:14] Kaburagi     I'll lead Sohoku High School to     our second consecutive victory. [13:20] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Thank you! [13:21] Kaburagi     He was strong. If the finish line had     been five meters closer, I would've lost. [13:27] Kaburagi     I seriously respect him. [13:40] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Push Imaizumi's back. [13:44] (Flashback) Kaburagi     What? [13:46] (Flashback) Sugimoto     In my place. [13:51] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [13:52] Kaburagi     I understand the weight of riding in the     Inter-High with this jersey, Sugimoto-san. [13:58] Kaburagi     Let's do this. [14:02] Sakamichi     Excuse me...

[14:19] Student     Can we take a picture? [14:21] Student     Yeah! [14:22] Student     Thank you! [14:24] Sakamichi     No, wait. Could you please     get Kaburagi-kun for me? [14:28] Sakamichi     No, will you? I have a message for     him from our captain, Teshima-san. [14:32] Student     Stand. Bow. [14:36] Sakamichi     Just being in another grade's     classroom makes me nervous. [14:41] Sakamichi     But the upperclassmen... [14:43] (Flashback) Kinjou     Is Onoda here? [14:44] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [14:46] Sakamichi     They didn't have a problem with it. [14:48] Sakamichi     Being someone's senior is hard.

[17:00] Arakita     Climbing that slope is exhausting. [17:02] Arakita     How do you think Sohoku High School will do? [17:04] Kinjou     They've already picked out     all six of their members. [17:07] Arakita     That was quick. [17:08] Kinjou     Captain Teshima probably intends     to use that time to increase [17:11] Kinjou     the team's strength as a whole.

[17:53] Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun! [17:54] Sakamichi     I went to your classroom this     morning, but I missed you. Today— [17:58] Kaburagi     I heard from Teshima-san. [18:00] Kaburagi     We're doing individual training, right? [18:03] Sakamichi     Great. [18:05] Sakamichi     I went during lunch, too,     but you weren't there. [18:10] (Flashback) Teshima     You'll be practicing one-on-one with Onoda. [18:12] (Flashback) Teshima     Learn all you can from him. [18:14] (Flashback) Teshima     The practice follows a race format. [18:15] (Flashback) Teshima     The course is simple, running from the     front gate and up the rear gate slope. [18:20] (Flashback) Teshima     If you see an opening, pass him. [18:22] Sakamichi     Wh-Where did you go for lunch? [18:25] Kaburagi     You could've left a message     with one of my classmates [18:28] Kaburagi     to come see you during the next break. [18:31] Sakamichi     I couldn't do that.     I wanted to tell you directly. [18:35] Kaburagi     I'll listen to your orders. [18:37] Kaburagi     After all, I'm your junior. [18:39] Sakamichi     Sorry. Are you mad? [18:41] Kaburagi     I'd apologize. [18:42] Sakamichi     Sorry. [18:43] Sakamichi     He's mad. Why is he mad? [18:48] Sakamichi     Huh? Kaburagi-kun? [18:50] Sakamichi     Juniors are so difficult to handle. [18:53] Kaburagi     My classmates told me—damn it. [18:57] Kaburagi     That Onoda's pathetic. [18:59] Kaburagi     That he's unreliable, scrawny, and weak. [19:03] Kaburagi     They made fun of me for looking up to him! [19:08] Kaburagi     Damn it! [19:10] Kaburagi     Can't he be a more dignified senior? [19:12] Kaburagi     He's embarrassing me! [19:15] Sakamichi     Sorry. [19:18] Kaburagi     Onoda-san, when did you get there? [19:20] Kaburagi     Crap! S-Sorry... [19:22] Kaburagi     Did you hear me talking to myself? [19:24] Kaburagi     I was riding all-out. [19:28] Sakamichi     Yeah, sorry. From around     "where my classmates told me." [19:33] Kaburagi     He kept up with me from the beginning? [19:37] Sakamichi     Sorry. I'm not much of a senior, am I? [19:41] Sakamichi     But I intend to do my best for the team. [19:45] Kaburagi     This is crazy. My whole body is shaking now.

[20:00] Sakamichi     Th-This practice is about     riding as hard as we can. [20:03] Sakamichi     Of course I will. Right! [20:06] Sakamichi     Here I go. [20:09] Kaburagi     Okay. [20:13] Kaburagi     He's fast. What is this?! [20:15] Kaburagi     Is this him really climbing? [20:17] Kaburagi     It took only a moment. [20:18] Kaburagi     What's going on with this guy? [20:20] Kaburagi     This pressure's been flowing out     of his whole body since he started. [20:24] Kaburagi     I've never met someone so fast going uphill. [20:27] Kaburagi     This guy who looked so small     at school looks huge now. [20:34] Kaburagi     I can't beat him. I don't     think I can beat him. [20:36] Kaburagi     Racing against him is totally     different from watching him. [20:40] Kaburagi     This is his high-cadence climb. Amazing! [20:45] Sakamichi     Keep up.

[21:00] Teshima     Most people are when they experience     Onoda's riding firsthand. [21:03] Teshima     He even smiles while he climbs. [21:07] Teshima     But we need Kaburagi to get stronger. [21:11] Teshima     And we have to as well. [21:14] Teshima     The next Inter-High is     being held on that slope. [21:18] Naruko     That slope?

[06:22] Teshima     Last year's captain, Kinjou-san, said [06:25] Teshima     this jersey is complete     when all six are together. [06:28] Kaburagi     It doesn't matter how many there are! [06:31] Kaburagi     This is a lap race. [06:33] Kaburagi     If you fall behind,     you're forced to drop out! [06:37] Announce     The leaders are entering the home stretch. SIGN    Inter-High Preliminaries Chiba [06:40] Announce     They'll be entering their second lap shortly. [06:43] Kaburagi     The pack is coming. Hurry! [06:46] Teshima     During the second stage     of last year's Inter-High, [06:49] Teshima     Onoda stopped and waited for     a senior named Tadokoro-san. [06:53] Teshima     He pulled the sick Tadokoro-san to the [06:57] Teshima     Team Sohoku jerseys that     were so far ahead of them. [07:00] Teshima     All six were united. [07:02] Teshima     Some guys would probably say     that didn't mean anything. [07:06] Teshima     But after that, Tadokoro-san pulled the team. [07:10] Teshima     We depended on each other and worked together. [07:12] Teshima     In the end, Onoda was entrusted with the team's     hopes and took our jersey to the finish line. [07:18] Teshima     I believe in the power of six. [07:23] Miki     Thanks for waiting. [07:24] Naruko     The manager's here. [07:27] Miki     Hurry. The leaders are     just around the corner. [07:29] Naruko     We know. [07:32] Sakamichi     They're here. [07:35] Teshima     It's done. [07:35] Naruko     This team always likes to cut it close. [07:39] Teshima     Don't say that, Naruko. [07:42] Teshima     We've got all six. Let's go. [07:46] Teshima     Sohoku High School's moving again. [07:48] Teshima     Pedal as hard as you can! [07:49] All     Yeah! [07:56] Rider D     They got away. [07:57] Rider E     But they're still within range. [07:59] Yanagida     You made a mistake, Teshima. [08:01] Yanagida     The race may have just started, but it's     impossible to make up this distance. [08:05] Yanagida     I'll overtake you on the remaining     nine laps and force you to drop out. [08:09] Yanagida     The Inter-High will be attended... [08:11] Yanagida     By us! [08:13] Imaizumi     The guys behind us are raring to go. [08:16] Imaizumi     What are we going to do, Teshima-san? [08:20] Naruko     I guess we don't have a choice. [08:22] Sakamichi     We'd better do our best. [08:23] Teshima     We need to catch up first     to the group behind us. [08:27] Kaburagi     Catch up? Are they serious? [08:36] Yanagida     What? [08:37] Teshima     Sorry, Yanagida. [08:38] Teshima     Could you hold onto that for a while? [08:41] Yanagida     What? [08:42] Teshima     I'll come back for it later. [08:45] Teshima     Yeah, around the ninth lap. [08:49] Yanagida     What? [08:50] Teshima     Oh, right. You can drink it. [08:53] Teshima     It's probably heavy. [08:55] Teshima     Enjoy your tea time. [08:58] Yanagida     T-Teshima! [09:00] Kaburagi     Has Teshima-senpai always been the kind     of person who provokes people like that? [09:05] Teshima     Let's start catching up, Aoyagi. [09:07] Teshima     We'll ride at 80% to pull ahead. [09:10] Aoyagi     Got it. [09:12] Teshima     Let's start this game of tag. [09:14] All     Yeah! [09:17] Kaburagi     We pulled ahead in a second. [09:20] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-senpai's pulling is amazing. [09:23] Naruko     I haven't seen the evil     Teshima-san in a while. [09:26] Kaburagi     What? [09:27] Imaizumi     The ingenious strategies that once     tortured us are going strong. [09:32] Teshima     Is that a compliment? [09:35] Teshima     The group is scary because it's a group. [09:38] Teshima     But if you break them apart, it's not. [09:41] Yanagida     Damn it! We'll catch up     no matter what, Teshima! [09:44] Rider D     Don't underestimate us, Sohoku High School! [09:46] Teshima     My declaration that we'll catch up      will break the group apart. [09:51] Teshima     With fewer riders, the pack will slow down. [09:54] Teshima     They're wasting their chance to pass us. [09:57] Kaburagi     All that thought was behind     that performance of his? [10:01] Teshima     Besides... [10:03] Teshima     We have all six of our members. [10:05] Kaburagi     Six. [10:09] Rider D     Yanagida, we're overpacing ourselves. [10:11] Rider E     At this pace, we won't even     finish the race, let alone win. [10:14] Yanagida     Shut up. We just have to catch     up to Sohoku High School. [10:17] Yanagida     I'll pull them out of the race! [10:22] Teshima     It's a little early, but let's do it, Aoyagi. [10:25] Aoyagi     Got it. We'll go at 100%. [10:28] Aoyagi     Ultimate technique... [10:35] Aoyagi     The improved version of Tadokoro-san's     Sohoku High School Human Bullet Train. [10:45] Aoyagi     The Supersonic Oxygen     Human Bullet Aoyagi Train! [10:54] Kaburagi     He's fast. I can't believe how fast he is. [10:56] Kaburagi     I can barely keep up.

[11:40] Kaburagi     The pack is completely     overwhelmed by this atmosphere. [11:44] Kaburagi     Teshima-san, did you predict this, too? [11:48] Teshima     Sorry, Yanagida. I'm back     for my water bottle. [11:52] Tanagida     Take it. [11:55] Teshima     Don't make too much of it. [11:57] Teshima     There's one lap left. You're up now. [12:01] Kaburagi     Me? [12:03] Imaizumi     We'll take you to the finish line. [12:05] Imaizumi     Ride like your life depends on it. [12:07] Kaburagi     I-Imaizumi-san? [12:08] Imaizumi     I told you, you're the ace today. [12:12] Imaizumi     Your job is to take the finish line. [12:15] Imaizumi     Whatever you do, don't fall behind. [12:19] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [12:22] Kaburagi     He's fast. He's perfectly efficient. [12:24] Kaburagi     He accelerates so beautifully. [12:27] Sakamichi     A-Are you okay? [12:30] Naruko     He told you not to fall behind. [12:32] Naruko     Since you're the ace,     pedal until your nose bleeds. [12:37] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [12:39] Kaburagi     Incredible. Naruko-san's     accelerating as he pushes me. [12:43] Sakamichi     You can do it. [12:44] Kaburagi     Onoda-san! [12:45] Naruko     That's it. Pedal hard, Kabu. [12:48] Naruko     Just so you know, the Inter-High's     a hundred times harder than this! [12:59] Imaizumi     Let's go! [13:00] Kaburagi     Yes, sir!

[13:15] Announce     Taking first through sixth place,     they've achieved a perfect victory. [13:19] Kaburagi     Amazing. I got a flat and fell behind,     but I actually took first. [13:26] Kaburagi     Team Sohoku is amazing. [13:30] Kaburagi     Naruko-san, Imaizumi-san, thank you. [13:35] Imaizumi     Don't forget to thank     Teshima-san and Aoyagi-san. [13:38] Naruko     Get up there and show the fans your jersey. [13:42] Naruko     The man who receives the most     praise in a road race... [13:45] Naruko     ...is the one who crosses the finish line first. [13:50] Kaburagi     I... I joined the greatest team. [13:55] Sakamichi     I feel like our form is great now. [13:58] Sakamichi     I feel like we're really unified. [14:02] Sakamichi     Hey, Naruko-kun. [14:04] Naruko     I actually wanted to take first, though. [14:08] Sakamichi     What? [14:08] Imaizumi     The finish line was right     in front of me. Darn it... [14:11] Sakamichi     What? [14:12] Naruko     Ace, my butt. Who does he think he is? [14:15] Imaizumi     Why did we have to let     him take the finish line? [14:18] Naruko     Hey, hotshot. We agree for once. [14:20] Imaizumi     Starting today, his nickname is "showoff." [14:23] Kaburagi     What? [14:24] Sakamichi     What? But I was just thinking     the team's in great form. [14:28] Teshima     This is fine. [14:29] Sakamichi     What?

[14:45] Teshima     Even if they bicker normally,     when things get tough and they can't ride, SIGN    Certain [14:51] Teshima     they'll turn it around in a second. [14:53] Teshima     Riders determined not to lose     give the team strength. [14:57] Teshima     "Don't follow me," becomes, "Keep up." [15:00] Teshima     And that connection causes miracles. [15:05] Teshima     That's what I believe. [15:07] Sakamichi     I see. [15:09] Sakamichi     That's this year's Sohoku High School. [15:15] Naruko     Listen up. Starting today, you're "showoff." [15:19] Imaizumi     If you've got anything to say, you can     say it once you can keep up with us. [15:24] Kaburagi     Understood! I accept!

[15:34] Imaizumi     Are you going to say that to everyone? [15:37] Kaburagi     Naruko Shoukichi, I'll surpass you, too! [15:41] Naruko     I'll be waiting. [15:43] Imaizumi     He said the same thing to you, didn't he? [15:47] Reporter A     Finally, why do you race? [15:52] Kaburagi     Today, when I crossed the     finish line, I had a thought. [15:56] Kaburagi     That I'm riding for my team. [16:00] Kaburagi     But I was wrong! [16:03] Kaburagi     It's to win! That's all! [16:05] Kaburagi     That's my only motivation! [16:07] Teshima     He's really glaring at us. [16:10] Teshima     But he's finally showing     his true colors, I guess. [16:13] Sakamichi     Yeah.

[05:21] ---     Those same conditions apply to us. [05:29] Imaizumi     Teshima-san and Aoyagi-san     have the same devices [05:31] Imaizumi     on their bikes that     Kaburagi and Danchiku had. [05:34] Teshima     During this training camp, our perfect     teamwork style, the two-man team... [05:40] Teshima     ...will be dissolved. [05:41] Imaizumi     Dissolved? [05:43] Teshima     We'll become stronger. We have to. [05:46] Teshima     You know that. We're third-years. [05:49] Teshima     But we've still never finished     a thousand kilometers. [05:55] Toji     Hey, Onoda. [05:57] Sakamichi     Kanzaki-san! [05:59] Toji     Sorry I'm late. There was traffic. [06:02] Sakamichi     It's totally fine. [06:03] Sakamichi     Thank you. I was able to get some rest. [06:06] Toji     I've got some stuff in the passenger seat.     Ride in the middle. [06:09] Sakamichi     Okay. [06:13] Koga     Hey. [06:14] Sakamichi     Koga-senpai... [06:15] Koga     I heard you got carsick, too. [06:17] Sakamichi     Yeah. [06:21] Kaburagi     My legs feel heavy. [06:25] Kaburagi     Damn it... [06:26] Kaburagi     I didn't realize my mental state could     have such a large effect on my riding. [06:31] Kaburagi     It's like they're made of stone. [06:37] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I'm asking for your help. During the     training camp that starts tomorrow... [06:41] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Ride with me, Danchiku. [06:44] (Flashback) Kaburagi     There's something I've come to     realize during practice lately. [06:47] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Without you, there's no one I can depend     on when my stomach starts to hurt. [06:51] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I'm only able to be myself because of you. [07:01] Kaburagi     This is impossible. A thousand     kilometers in four days... [07:04] Kaburagi     And I have to place in the top six. [07:06] Kaburagi     I can't do that on a track     I have no experience on... [07:12] Kaburagi     By myself. [07:14] Kaburagi     Danchiku! [07:16] Kaburagi     Where's the finish line at the     end of a thousand kilometers? [07:19] Kaburagi     Someone who's never ridden it      before has no idea. [07:23] Kaburagi     I can't imagine the endlessness. [07:25] Kaburagi     How many times do I pedal?     For how many hours? [07:31] Kaburagi     Ow... [07:32] Kaburagi     Ow! My stomach is starting to hurt. [07:35] Kaburagi     Answer me, Danchiku. [07:37] Kaburagi     Save me, Danchiku... [07:41] (Flashback) Danchiku     It's now or never! Go, Issa! [07:45] (Flashback) Danchiku     Frolic more, Genius Kaburagi! [07:49] Kaburagi     Give me praise. Tell me what to do. [07:51] Kaburagi     Lift me up, Danchiku! [08:05] Kaburagi     Oh, right. The training camp. [08:07] Kaburagi     Damn it. The first-year amateurs     passed me at some point. [08:11] Kaburagi     That means I'm last! [08:14] Kaburagi     D-Damn it. My cleat won't snap in. [08:17] Imaizumi     You're not last. [08:21] Imaizumi     You're being lapped. [08:23] Kaburagi     While I was spacing out... [08:26] Kaburagi     They finished one lap on this     five-kilometer circuit course! [08:31] Naruko     Hotshot, you've got some     pretty lame-looking wheels. [08:35] Naruko     What's wrong? Did you lose your allowance? [08:38] Imaizumi     Yeah, when I went into town the other day. [08:41] Imaizumi     Don't worry about it. [08:43] Naruko     I feel sorry for you. [08:45] Naruko     But honestly, my wheels look lamer. [08:49] Naruko     Don't worry about me, though. [08:51] Imaizumi     Kaburagi! [08:52] Imaizumi     What's wrong? I thought     you were going to beat us. [08:56] Imaizumi     Pass us! If you place sixth     at this training camp, [09:00] Imaizumi     you won't be any use to us at the Inter-High. [09:04] Kaburagi     It's in! [09:07] Kaburagi     Damn, damn... [09:10] Kaburagi     Catch up! Catch up! [09:19] Kaburagi     Seriously? [09:22] Danchiku     Issa, are you all right? [09:25] Kaburagi     Danchiku. [09:29] Kaburagi     Danchiku, I don't have confidence. [09:31] Kaburagi     I'm not confident I can finish     a thousand kilometers. I... [09:46] Kaburagi     Danchiku... [09:48] Kaburagi     This must be what they call "pressure." [09:51] Kaburagi     Now that I'm alone, I finally feel it. [09:53] Kaburagi     The pressure of having to ride     a thousand kilometers... [09:58] Danchiku     You're letting it get to you. [10:00] Kaburagi     I can't do it. [10:01] Danchiku     Frolic, Issa. [10:02] Kaburagi     I can't. [10:03] Kaburagi     I have to stop riding. [10:07] Danchiku     I see two lights in you. [10:10] Danchiku     Two lights I don't have. [10:13] Danchiku     One is the explosive acceleration that comes     from your focus before the finish line. [10:18] Danchiku     The other is your desire to     beat anyone and everyone. [10:22] Danchiku     I'm the oldest of three siblings. [10:25] Danchiku     Maybe it's because my younger     siblings are selfish, [10:27] Danchiku     but I tend to yield at crucial junctures. [10:30] Danchiku     As the youngest of four siblings,     you can do what you want. [10:33] Danchiku     You've been spoiled. [10:35] Kaburagi     What? Is that really relevant     right now, Danchiku? [10:39] Danchiku     Until now, you've acquired     the things you wanted. [10:42] Danchiku     You do whatever it takes to acquire     the things you really want. [10:47] Kaburagi     Buy it, please! Buy it! [10:49] Danchiku     You never let go until you get what you want. [10:52] Kaburagi     Is that relevant? [10:54] Danchiku     You flip over the shogi board     when you're about to lose. [10:57] Danchiku     You even want to win at rock-paper-scissors. [10:59] Kaburagi     Wait, Danchiku! What are you talking about? [11:02] Kaburagi     Are you trying to finish me off     when I'm already feeling down? [11:04] Danchiku     That mentality, which makes people     dislike you in everyday life, [11:08] Danchiku     becomes an asset in the competitive world. [11:11] Danchiku     When you're pushed to your     limit and nearly exhausted, [11:14] Danchiku     when your body is screaming, [11:16] Danchiku     your last remaining drop of     mental strength tries to win. [11:19] Danchiku     That's talent. [11:23] Kaburagi     Talent... [11:24] Danchiku     That's right. [11:26] Danchiku     That's why I dream of you doing great things. [11:29] Danchiku     People don't recognize their     talents for what they are. [11:32] Danchiku     To them, it's natural. [11:37] Danchiku     Notice it. Work hard. [11:40] Danchiku     I can't help you, but you     can do it, Genius Kaburagi. [11:45] Danchiku     If you want to win,     you'll find plenty of chances. [11:49] Danchiku     There's still easily more than     900 meters left on this course. [11:53] Kaburagi     Sorry, Danchiku. There was     something wrong with me. [11:56] Kaburagi     I'll do it. I'll show you. [11:58] Kaburagi     I'll do whatever it takes to     cross the finish line first! [12:03] Danchiku     You recover quickly, too.     That's another one of your talents. [12:10] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun! Imaizumi-kun! [12:13] Naruko     Hey, the latecomer's here. [12:16] Naruko     Onoda-kun, you're five     laps behind. Pedal hard. [12:19] Sakamichi     Yeah. I'll have to ride     more than you guys tonight. [12:22] Sakamichi     Anyway, that upperclassman's going     to be riding with us this year. [12:25] Sakamichi     He rode here in the van with me. [12:27] Sakamichi     Koga-senpai! [12:30] Naruko     Koga-senpai? [12:31] Naruko     You mean that third-year with glasses     who's always messing with machines? [12:35] Imaizumi     Last year he withdrew from the training     camp because he said he couldn't keep up. [12:40] Koga     It's been two years since     I've been on this course. [12:44] Sakamichi     He was really nice in the van. [12:47] Sakamichi     He was easy to talk to. SIGN    Motion Sickness Relief [12:49] (Flashback) Koga     Want some? It's for motion sickness. [12:51] Koga     It works. [12:53] Sakamichi     Come to think of it, I heard     Koga-senpai rode 980 kilometers [12:57] Sakamichi     at the training camp they     had when he was a first-year. [12:59] Naruko     Nine hundred... [13:01] Imaizumi     ...and eighty? [13:02] Kaburagi     He quit riding with just     twenty kilometers left? Why? [13:09] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun? [13:11] Imaizumi     Teshima-san! [13:13] Imaizumi     Apparently, Koga-senpai is participating. [13:16] Teshima     I know. [13:17] Imaizumi     Why didn't you tell us? [13:19] Teshima     Were you hoping for a list? [13:21] Imaizumi     Don't avoid the question. [13:23] Imaizumi     Koga-senpai didn't skip the     training camp last year because [13:28] Imaizumi     he couldn't keep up, did he? [13:31] Teshima     You're right. That wasn't why. [13:32] Teshima     He was injured. [13:45] Naruko     What was that? [13:47] Sakamichi     Koga-senpai... [13:48] Sakamichi     He created so much wind pressure     just by riding past us. [13:51] Koga     This year is my last     chance at the Inter-High. [13:55] Koga     I came here because I wanted to participate. [13:59] Koga     If you're a baby who thinks     you'll be able to participate [14:01] Koga     in the Inter-High just by finishing     this course, step forward. [14:05] Koga     I'll crush you and wear your jersey. [14:08] Koga     I'll show you the burden of riding     in the Inter-High... by force. [14:13] Imaizumi     Koga-senpai was in the     Inter-High two years ago? [14:19] Imaizumi     But wait. Isn't finishing a thousand     kilometers at this training camp [14:23] Imaizumi     one of our team's conditions     for being in the Inter-High? [14:25] Imaizumi     That's why Onoda worked himself     until he was exhausted last year. [14:33] Teshima     It was only twenty kilometers, but he     didn't fulfill the conditions. So why? [14:39] Teshima     To cut to the chase,     there were too many reasons. [14:42] Teshima     Koga shouldn't have ridden in     the Hiroshima race that year. [14:48] Teshima     It's all in the past now. [14:51] Teshima     There's no point in rehashing it. [14:53] Teshima     To me and Aoyagi—no,     Kinjou-san and the others, [14:56] Teshima     he was a significant member of the team. [14:59] Teshima     He was the most promising hope of our year. [15:04] Imaizumi     Koga-senpai was? [15:06] Koga     What's wrong? [15:08] Koga     Are those jerseys just for show,     Naruko? Kaburagi? Onoda? [15:12] Sakamichi     Koga-senpai? [15:14] Koga     Or are you bewildered because the man     who's always performing maintenance [15:19] Koga     in the corner of the club room     is speaking so sharply to you? [15:22] Naruko     No, not at all. [15:24] Koga     That's why I wore this. [15:26] Koga     I didn't think I'd wear it again... [15:29] Koga     But I'm here with the resolve to wear this. [15:34] Sakamichi     He's wearing another jersey underneath. [15:36] Koga     It's the Sohoku High School Inter-High jersey [15:39] Koga     I wore to the Hiroshima race two years ago. [15:42] Naruko     Seriously? He was in the Inter-High? [15:44] Kaburagi     Koga-senpai! [15:47] Koga     I thought showing you this     would be the fastest way. [15:51] Sakamichi     That jersey was in rough shape. [15:54] Sakamichi     Something must've happened     at that Inter-High. [15:58] Koga     But to be honest, you're no match for me. [16:06] Naruko     What do you mean we're no     match for you, Koga-senpai? [16:13] Naruko     He's trying to pull ahead!     Let's stick to him, Onoda-kun! Showoff! [16:18] Sakamichi     Yeah! [16:18] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [16:29] Kaburagi     He's fast. [16:30] Sakamichi     He's pulling like crazy, Naruko-kun. [16:33] Naruko     He's been accelerating like a madman.      How much faster can he go? [16:36] Naruko     Just how much strength does he have left? [16:40] Naruko     Come to think of it,     Kinjou-san said this guy... [16:44] Koga     I'm the Stamina Simpleton. [16:47] (Flashback) Koga     In middle school? [16:49] (Flashback) Koga     I never skipped practice and was     always the last one to quit, [16:52] (Flashback) Koga     so I had a weird nickname. [16:55] (Flashback) Koga     They called me the Stamina Simpleton. [16:58] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's a good nickname. [16:59] (Flashback) Kinjou     It's simple and single-minded. [17:02] (Flashback) Koga     Kinjou-san praised my nickname. [17:09] Teshima     You came, Koga. [17:15] Naruko     He accelerated so he could catch up. [17:18] Koga     We need you. That's why I said     you were no match for me. [17:24] Koga     The man I'm trying to knock out at     this training camp is you, Teshima. [17:32] Sakamichi     Teshima-san? [17:34] Koga     Onoda, you know who's the weakest     member of the current Inter-High team. [17:44] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm weak. [17:46] Koga     Let's race, Teshima. Switch with me. [17:49] Koga     I'll become the new captain. [17:52] Sakamichi     He's challenging Teshima-san? [17:54] Koga     He should've told you before     this training camp started [17:58] Koga     that he'd cut anyone who     didn't place in the top six. [18:02] Koga     It's because he knew I was coming. [18:05] Koga     You'd better be ready for this. [18:07] Teshima     Imaizumi, Naruko, Onoda, Kaburagi... Sorry. [18:12] Teshima     I lied when I said I'd chosen the lineup. [18:16] Teshima     I'm the only one who's not a sure thing. [18:21] Sakamichi     His roar is deafening. [18:25] Koga     The old you would've fallen to that! [18:28] Teshima     Koga! [18:30] Koga     It's been a while since we     last raced all out, Junta! [18:34] Teshima     This is my first time! [18:35] Teshima     I always fell behind when     we used to ride together! [18:40] Teshima     Are you over your injury? [18:42] Koga     Yeah. I lost a year and a half because of it. [18:47] Koga     But I've made a complete recovery. [18:48] Koga     I made sure I did, so I could     ride in my last Inter-High! [18:52] Koga     Switch with me, Teshima! I can     make Sohoku High School stronger! [18:57] Koga     A Sohoku of strength! [18:58] Koga     That's my plan for the team. [19:01] Koga     I'll make Aoyagi and     Naruko ride on the flats. [19:03] Koga     I'll have Kaburagi assist. [19:05] Koga     Onoda will take the mountains. [19:07] Koga     Imaizumi and I will handle the finish line. [19:09] Koga     We can achieve a consecutive     championship this way! [19:12] Koga     Don't worry. It won't take long for me     to get along with the other members. [19:15] Koga     I know them well. [19:17] Koga     I've been watching them from     the corner of the club room. [19:22] Koga     It must've been hard bringing     that prickly group together. [19:27] Koga     But it's all right now. Leave the rest to me. [19:30] Teshima     Don't worry about me.     I'm doing this because I want to. [19:33] Teshima     I don't have any intention     of handing it over to you! [19:36] Teshima     Isn't that why we're racing     a thousand kilometers, Koga? [19:39] Koga     Teshima! [19:41] Kaburagi     Wait, what? [19:43] Kaburagi     Is our captain changing? [19:45] Sakamichi     But we couldn't have won the     preliminaries without Teshima-san. [19:49] Kaburagi     After watching him ride,     Koga-senpai seems honestly— [19:52] Imaizumi     After them! [19:53] Both     Yeah! [19:54] Naruko     Of course! [19:55] Imaizuimi     Regardless of who wins,     we have to see this through. [19:59] Naruko     "I'm the only one who's not a sure thing"?     What's he showing off for? [20:02] Naruko     A race? Is he serious? [20:05] Naruko     The way that glasses guy     rode was something else! [20:08] Naruko     Teshima will lose! [20:09] Sakamichi     This is Teshima-san we're talking about. [20:11] Sakamichi     He must have a plan. [20:13] Sakamichi     Something surprising. He must. [20:16] Sakamichi     So why do I have a bad feeling about this? [20:19] Koga     Teshima, it's 800 meters     to the starting line. [20:24] Koga     Show me how much faster your     once-ordinary riding has become. [20:29] Koga     Don't bother holding back. Let me be clear. [20:33] Koga     I won't let you finish a thousand kilometers. [20:36] Koga     I'll tear it from you. [20:37] Koga     I'll corner you through brute force. [20:41] Koga     I'm going to make you drop out. [20:43] Koga     Four hundred meters left! [20:46] Naruko     They're getting ready to sprint. [20:48] Naruko     Is the distance to the starting     line their first test of strength? [20:50] Sakamichi     Teshima-san... [20:55] Naruko     He jumped ahead! He's got it! [20:57] Koga     You've gotten stronger.     I hardly recognize you. [21:01] Koga     But you're still... [21:06] Koga     Ordinary! [21:14] Koga     That's how strong you are. [21:17] Koga     Feel like giving up yet? [21:18] Teshima     Looks like there won't be any time for     tea until I finish a thousand kilometers. [21:25] Koga     You always had to have the last word. [21:28] Koga     I said I'd make you drop out. [21:31] Koga     I'll push you until you can't talk anymore. [21:35] Koga     I'm the guy known as the Stamina Simpleton. [23:12] Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun, Danchiku-kun... [23:15] Sakamichi     Kanzaki-san gave these to me before we     left this morning so we could share them. [23:19] Kaburagi     What? The manager? [23:21] Kaburagi     They're from a girl? [23:23] Kaburagi     I don't want any! [23:24] Sakamichi     Why not? They're good. [23:26] Danchiku     It'd be a waste, Issa. No one's watching. [23:32] Kaburagi     I don't want any!

[03:33] Naruko     I had no idea Koga-senpai was     such an incredible rider. [03:35] Imaizumi     He was the team's hope as a first-year. [03:40] Imaizumi     He couldn't ride for a long     time due to an injury. [03:44] Imaizumi     Because he wanted to stay involved with     the team, he'd been working as a mechanic. [03:50] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? About the Inter-High... [03:53] (Flashback) Koga     Yeah, I'm not going. I'm staying here.

[04:24] Sakamichi     That was painful for Koga-senpai. [04:29] Sakamichi     Teshima-san fights knowing all that. [04:33] Imaizumi     The same goes for Sugimoto. [04:35] Imaizumi     We carry the hopes of those who have fallen     and can't participate in the Inter-High. [04:42] Imaizumi     Four days from now, either Teshima-san     or Koga-san will carry those hopes. [04:48] Sakamichi     Then we have to get stronger     during these four days. [04:54] Imaizumi     Yeah. [05:08] Teshima     That was rough, but I endured it. [05:13] Teshima     What do you think, Koga? [05:17] Koga     Tomorrow will be harder. [05:19] Teshima     Seriously? [05:21] Teshima     And give me a hand. Hey, Koga! SIGN    Teshima Koga Aoyagi Imaizumi [05:26] Teshima     I can't stand up. [05:33] Koga     I've waited a long time. [05:36] Koga     This year, I'll complete     one thousand kilometers. [05:40] Koga     And fight at the Inter-High. [05:44] Aoyagi     Your pace is dropping with each lap. [05:48] Aoyagi     Are you okay, Junta? [05:49] Teshima     Koga's a genius. I don't     stand a chance against him. [05:54] Aoyagi     Junta... [05:56] Teshina     That's why I'm thinking of doing... [06:01] Teshina     ...what only an ordinary man can do. SIGN    Boom SIGN    Pop [06:08] Aoyagi     Supersonic Oxygen Ten Thousand Bites of Food! [06:13] Naruko     A man eats plain white rice in silence! [06:18] First-Year     Aoyagi-san and Naruko-san are amazing! [06:21] Koga     They sure do eat a lot. [06:24] Imaizumi     That's a lot of calories, though. [06:27] Imaizumi     Bicycle racing is a battle of endurance. [06:30] Imaizumi     Koga-senpai is putting it on the line     in his race against Teshima-san. [06:36] Koga     The skies cleared up, though. [06:38] Koga     The fog was crazy this morning. Right, Onoda? [06:41] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [06:43] Koga     We went for a ride first thing this morning [06:48] Koga     to make up for being late     to the training camp. SIGN    Teshima Koga [06:51] Koga     Now I'm back to being five     minutes behind Teshima. [06:55] Aoyagi     Envision your assignment     and goal while you ride. [06:59] All     Yes, sir! [07:03] Aoyagi     Help provide food and water     if you've dropped out. [07:05] Aoyagi     If you're free, work out. [07:07] All     Yes, sir! [07:08] Aoyagi     I'm off. [07:17] Teshima     What's this? I thought     I'd gotten ahead of you. [07:20] Koga     This is pointless. Choose. [07:23] Koga     Will you push yourself today and     drop out because of an injury, [07:27] Koga     or keep riding and drop out     when you're exhausted tomorrow? [07:34] Teshima     Sorry, but I choose the third option! [07:37] Teshima     I'll complete a thousand     kilometers in four days... [07:41] Teshima     ...and cross the finish line before you! [07:45] Koga     You may be a skilled strategist,     but you're not good enough. [07:50] Koga     Give up, Teshima. [07:52] Teshima     He's a hair's breadth away. [07:55] Teshima     Only a genius could do something so easily. [07:58] Teshima     In contrast, I'm ordinary. [08:00] Teshima     I haven't even won a single race. [08:08] Teshima     But Koga, there are sights     that only I can see. [08:17] Teshima     There's a lot to learn     from seeing him up close. [08:21] Koga     What are you smiling about, Teshima? [08:23] Koga     Are you approaching your limit? [08:28] Teshima     Koga! [08:29] Teshima     I'm an ordinary man! [08:31] Teshima     That's why I'll take one step at a time,     and during this training camp... [08:36] Teshima     Become everything you said I'm not. [08:40] Koga     Looks like you'll have to learn     your lesson the hard way. [08:44] Koga     You've always got to have the last word. [08:46] Koga     I'll shut you up! [08:49] Teshima     The hard way? I know how strong you are. [08:53] Teshima     I've always known. [08:57] Teshima     During the Hiroshima Inter-High two years ago,      at the end of the second day... [09:03] Teshima     I can still recall that atmosphere. [09:08] Teshima     That tense atmosphere of total despair. [09:13] (Flashback) Koga     It's warped. [09:14] (Flashback) Tadokoro     That's enough, Koga. [09:16] (Flashback) Koga     But Kinjou-san asked me to fix it! [09:19] (Flashback) Makishima     We only have one ace, and our mechanic     doubles as one of our riders. [09:23] (Flashback) Makishima     It was wrong for a team as weak     as ours to dream of winning. [09:28] (Flashback) Koga     I'll fix it! [09:30] (Flashback) Tadokoro     We're saying you don't have to! [09:35] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Sohoku High School's second-year ace, Kinjou, [09:37] (Flashback) Tadokoro     is dropping out on the second     day after a hard fall. [09:42] (Flashback) Teshima     Excuse me. [09:43] (Flashback) Teshima     Kinjou-san's being examined at the hospital. [09:48] (Flashback) Teshima     His has broken ribs,     and abrasions in seven places. [09:51] (Flashback) Teshima     One of the third-years is     going to stay with him. [09:55] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I see. [10:03] (Flashback) Koga     Tadokoro-san, tomorrow I'll be— [10:08] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Get changed. You've done enough. [10:10] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Get some rest. [10:11] (Flashback) Tadokoro     We still have to race tomorrow. [10:19] (Flashback) Teshima     The ace? [10:20] (Flashback) Koga     Keep your voice down, Junta. [10:23] (Flashback) Teshima     The ace, though? Are you serious? [10:25] (Flashback) Koga     Kinjou-san's done a lot for me. [10:28] (Flashback) Koga     That's why I have to fill his spot. [10:31] (Flashback) Koga     They won't be looking out for the first-years.     I'll be free to do as I please. [10:36] (Flashback) Koga     I'll sneak my way to the top     just before the finish line tomorrow. [10:40] (Flashback) Koga     I'm confident in my sprinting ability,     so I'm going to go for it. [10:44] (Flashback) Koga     If things go well, we could win. [10:45] (Flashback) Koga     It'll be a huge comeback.     We'll get single-digit number tags. [10:48] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't, Kimitaka. [10:51] (Flashback) Teshima     I understand how you feel. [10:52] (Flashback) Teshima     I dropped out of the thousand kilometer     training camp, so you might not like me saying it, [10:57] (Flashback) Teshima     but you can't do it. [10:59] (Flashback) Teshima     Listen to the upperclassmen tomorrow. [11:01] (Flashback) Koga     Junta! [11:02] (Flashback) Koga     I thought you'd understand! [11:05] (Flashback) Teshima     You're injured! [11:07] (Flashback) Teshima     Kinjou-san said you didn't     have to push yourself. [11:10] (Flashback) Teshima     He told you to ride in the Inter-High,     get experience, and use it next year. [11:14] (Flashback) Koga     What about this year? [11:15] (Flashback) Teshima     He told you not to push yourself because     you're talented and have promise! [11:21] (Flashback) Teshima     It was the same during the training camp. [11:22] (Flashback) Teshima     You started hurting on the fourth day,     so you were told to stop at 900 kilometers. [11:27] (Flashback) Teshima     But you injured yourself further by     pushing yourself eighty kilometers more. [11:30] (Flashback) Teshima     You still haven't been able to get over that! [11:32] (Flashback) Koga     I've healed. There's nothing to worry about. [11:35] (Flashback) Koga     I recover quickly. [11:37] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Kimitaka... [11:39] (Flashback) Koga     You know my nickname, don't you? [11:42] (Flashback) Koga     I'm the iron man, [11:44] (Flashback) Koga     the Stamina Simpleton. [11:48] (Flashback) Rider A     Sohoku High School's first-year jumped ahead! [11:59] Koga     I'm the team's hope. [12:02] (Flashback) Kinjou     Your body is made for cycling. [12:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     If you keep at it, you'll get better. [12:07] Koga     They expect great things for me. [12:10] Koga     Kinjou-san's hopes... [12:13] Koga     I'll... [12:16] (Flashback) Fan     There's a sharp turn at     the bottom of the hill! [12:20] Koga     I have to do well. [12:25] Koga     I have to do... [12:30] (Flashback) Fan B     Someone fell! [12:31] (Flashback) Fan C     Are you okay? [12:38] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Teshima... [12:40] (Flashback) Teshima     Kimitaka... [12:42] Announce     Number 73 has dropped out of the race. [12:43] Announce     He seems to have hit his left shoulder hard. [12:46] (Flashback) Teshima     They took him away. SIGN    Koga 73 [12:49] Teshima     Should I have done more to stop him? [12:54] Teshima     Damn it. Why, Kimitaka? [13:00] Teshima     It's nighttime now, Koga. [13:03] Teshima     No, Kimitaka. [13:06] Teshima     They'll be putting out the no passing     board by the finish line soon, [13:10] Teshima     so we don't push ourselves too hard     at night and injure ourselves. [13:15] Koga     Why? Nothing I did let me pull ahead of you. [13:19] Koga     You, an ordinary man. [13:21] Teshima     Kimitaka... That brings back memories. [13:25] Teshima     I used to call you that     when we were still friends. [13:28] Teshima     After your fall, as you were     stoically blaming yourself, [13:32] Teshima     I couldn't say anything to you. [13:36] Teshima     I'm glad you returned to this training     camp so we could speak our minds. [13:42] Teshima     I believe there's a moment when     an ordinary man beats a genius. [13:49] Teshima     Want to give it a try? [13:51] Teshima     Let's race to the finish line     where the no passing sign is. [13:57] Koga     Can I assume this race     will settle everything, [14:01] Koga     Junta! [14:03] Teshima     Yeah, that's right. [14:07] Teshima     Kimitaka! [14:12] Sakamichi     A-Aoyagi-san! [14:14] Naruko     Are you taking a break? [14:23] Aoyagi     You guys should watch this, too. [14:27] Naruko     Is this the end of their race? [14:29] Kaburagi     Teshima-san and Koga-senpai are... [14:32] Aoyagi     They probably intend to decide     who will ride in the Inter-High. [14:38] Imaizumi     Teshima-san has responded to all of     Koga-senpai's movements [14:41] Imaizumi     and persistently kept up. SIGN    Teshima Koga Aoyagi Imaizumi [14:44] Imaizumi     We thought he was at a disadvantage,     but he's still just barely keeping even. [14:48] Imaizumi     Is Teshima-san pushing and testing     himself to find his answer? [14:55] Aoyagi     Junta... [14:58] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Sorry for winning again, Teshima. [15:02] (Flashback) Teshima     It's fine. I'm satisfied. [15:04] (Flashback) Teshima     We beat the elites together. [15:07] (Flashback) Aoyagi     You're the one who deserves     to be first, Teshima. [15:10] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'll assist you in the next race. [15:12] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't you know? [15:15] (Flashback) Teshima     I've never won a sprint to the finish before. [15:21] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Teshima! [15:23] (Flashback) Teshima     I struggled hard, but it was no use. [15:25] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm 11th. [15:27] (Flashback) Teshima     One shy of the top ten. [15:29] (Flashback) Teshima     Sounds like me, right? [15:31] (Flashback) Teshima     Even after you pulled for me. [15:34] (Flashback) Teshima     Sorry. [15:37] (Flashback) Teshima     My race with Koga will probably end     either tomorrow or the day after. [15:42] (Flashback) Teshima     In my exhausted state, I have     to beat the genius Koga [15:45] (Flashback) Teshima     in a finish line sprint,     which I've never won before. [15:50] Aoyagi     Junta... [15:52] (Flashback) Teshima     If it comes down to it, Aoyagi... [15:55] (Flashback) Teshima     Will you cheer for me? [16:01] Teshima     I'm at my limit. [16:03] Teshima     I'm amazed my legs are still pedaling. [16:07] Teshima     But I won't give up. [16:11] Teshima     Why can't an ordinary man with ordinary legs     miraculously beat a genius just once? [16:18] Naruko     They're close. I see two lights. [16:21] (Flashback) Teshima     Will you cheer for me? [16:24] Aoyagi     Of course. Who else would I be cheering for? [16:29] Aoyagi     Junta! [16:31] Naruko     Is Koga-senpai riding alone? [16:33] Imaizumi     No, Teshima-san is right behind him. [16:37] Naruko     Teshima-san is avoiding the wind by staying behind,      but he looks like he's struggling. [16:41] Aoyagi     Junta... [16:44] (Flashback) Teshima     Koga will go all out at the training camp. [16:47] (Flashback) Teshima     I probably won't have time to be the captain. [16:50] (Flashback) Teshima     Could you lead the team for me, then? [16:54] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I understand. I'm the vice-captain. [16:58] (Flashback) Teshima     I don't want to have any regrets. [17:01] (Flashback) Teshima     If I fail, this will be the last time. [17:08] Aoyagi     I'm uncertain about facing     the Inter-High without you. [17:16] Teshima     Keep moving. Don't stop. [17:18] Teshima     Do what you've never done before. [17:22] Koga     You still had that much strength left, Junta? [17:26] Teshima     I'm going to the Inter-High! [17:31] Naruko     They're neck and neck! [17:33] Kaburagi     Teshima-san's pulling ahead! [17:35] Kaburagi     I've never seen Teshima-san so strong before. [17:38] Kaburagi     He's going to make it. [17:41] Naruko     Did you notice, hotshot? [17:44] Imaizumi     Naruko... [17:45] Naruko     Since the sprint started,     Koga-senpai hasn't... [17:48] Imaizumi     ...stood up from his saddle once. [17:51] Koga     One hundred and fifty meters left.     That's enough. [17:58] Imaizumi     Koga-senpai... [18:00] Naruko     Stood up! [18:09] Koga     I'll do it. [18:12] Teshima     What's wrong, guys? I can't hear you. [18:16] Teshima     No one's crossed the finish line yet. [18:19] Teshima     I guess it can't be helped. [18:21] Teshima     It's always been this way. [18:24] Teshima     No one's ever expected anything from me. [18:28] (Flashback) Senpai A     Class 1-5, Teshima Junta. [18:31] (Flashback) Teshima     Yes, sir. [18:32] (Flashback) Senpai B     You're skinny. [18:33] (Flashback) Senpai A     Your jersey looks new. Are you a beginner? [18:37] (Flashback) Teshima     Ah... I rode in middle school. [18:41] (Flashback) Teshima     I thought I could turn over     a new leaf with this jersey. [18:43] (Flashback) Senpai B     You're Koga, huh? [18:45] (Flashback) Senpai A     We've heard about you. [18:50] (Flashback) Senpai     This training camp is hard. Do your best. [18:53] (Flashback) Senpai     Kinjou, Tadokoro, Makishima, and first-year Koga,      finish your thousand kilometers. [18:58] (Flashback) Senpai     Teshima, ride as hard as you can. [19:02] (Flashback) Teshima     Huh? Yes, sir. [19:03] Teshima     "As hard as I can?" [19:06] Teshima     He doesn't expect a thousand     kilometers from me. [19:10] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I'm the one who trained Teshima and Aoyagi. [19:15] Teshima     Tadokoro-san's the only     one who believed in me. [19:19] (Flashback) Tadokoro     That's enough, Teshima, Aoyagi. [19:24] Teshima     I couldn't meet his expectations. [19:27] Teshima     But I understand now. [19:31] Teshima     I was jealous of how everyone     expected so much from Koga. [19:36] Teshima     I thought I could work harder if     they had high expectations for me. [19:41] Teshima     But I was wrong. [19:44] Teshima     It should've been obvious once     I thought about it. That's right. [19:47] Teshima     Unless I work hard,     no one will expect anything. [19:51] Teshima     Can I do something I've never done before now? [19:55] Teshima     I can. There's one man standing     over there who believes in me. [20:01] Aoyagi     Junta, win! [20:03] Teshima     I'll become stronger. I'll become stronger. [20:06] Teshima     Because I'm weak. [20:14] Koga     This is it! [20:20] Koga     H-He's beside me? [20:26] Aoyagi     Junta! SIGN     Aoyagi SIGN    Teshima Aoyagi SIGN    Teshima Koga Aoyagi [20:35] Naruko     Teshima-san won the race! [20:44] Koga     I... lost? I lost a sprint? [20:50] Koga     When I passed him at the end,     I didn't think he'd pass me back. [20:57] (Flashback) Teshima     I believe there's a moment when     an ordinary man beats a genius. [21:04] Teshima     Crap. I'm at my limit. [21:07] Koga     An ordinary man beats a genius... [21:12] Teshima     Kimitaka! [21:15] Teshima     That was close. [21:19] Koga     I can't believe you wore me down so much. [21:22] Koga     Me, the Stamina Simpleton. [21:26] Koga     Thank you, Junta. [21:29] Koga     Your eyes are brimming with confidence. [21:36] Koga     Sohoku High School's fate is in your hands. [21:38] Koga     Go win, Junta. [23:17] Aoyagi     Junta... [23:27] Teshima     Aoyagi, my hair's silky now, too.

[02:08] Teshima     That's a convenient device. [02:10] Aoyagi     Junta. [02:12] Teshima     Sorry. I'm taking a break. [02:15] Koga     A break? [02:16] Koga     You said your legs and back were     cramping and brought me down with you. [02:21] Teshima     Your leg cramped up first. [02:23] Koga     M-My legs didn't cramp!

[02:45] Koga     It's been a while since     we spoke face to face. [02:49] Koga     Our first-year Inter-High was the last time. [02:53] Koga     But I'm glad I gave everything I had then. [02:58] Koga     Given the team's situation, I was     the only one who could go for it. [03:02] Koga     Even when I had it to do over,     I think I would still do it. [03:06] Koga     I gave everything I had in that race. [03:09] Koga     What happened was unfortunate,     but I don't regret it. [03:13] Teshima     Kimitaka... [03:15] Koga     It's frustrating, but it can't be helped. [03:17] Koga     Let's ride. [03:19] Teshima     What? [03:20] Koga     Isn't this a training camp? [03:22] Koga     There's still something I have to     do before my three years are up. [03:26] Koga     I'm a man of only 980 kilometers. [03:30] Koga     So I must complete one thousand kilometers. [03:33] Sakamichi     Good work, Koga-san. That was amazing. [03:37] Sakamichi     During last year's Inter-High, [03:39] Sakamichi     thanks for staying behind for us     and supporting Sohoku High School. [03:44] Koga     I'll be going this year, Onoda. [03:46] Koga     I'll support the team with all my might. [03:48] Sakamichi     Thank you. [03:50] Koga     Imaizumi... [03:52] Koga     You're a second-year ace,     just like Kinjou-san was back then. [03:58] Koga     Don't waver. Attack. [04:00] Koga     We'll be counting on you near the finish line. [04:02] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [04:03] Koga     Naruko... [04:04] Koga     Looks like you're working on something     new to surprise us again this year. [04:11] Naruko     It'll be a piece of cake. [04:13] Naruko     I'll be heating things up     this summer to 300 degrees! [04:18] Imaizumi     Don't burn yourself to death. [04:21] Koga     Kaburagi, are you feeling uneasy? [04:24] Koga     You're the only first-year. [04:26] Koga     I was the only one, too. [04:28] Koga     Give everything you've got.

[04:52] Koga     And then I'll ride in the Inter-High for you! [04:54] Naruko     No way. [04:56] Teshima     Does that mean you'll replace us      if we let our guard down? [04:59] Sakamichi     We'll be careful. [05:02] Koga     Do your best. Don't get hurt. [05:07] Koga     It's all right. You can come     to me for advice anytime. [05:14] Koga     I know a lot about injuries. [05:22] Midosuzi     Here we go. [05:29] Employee     I'm sorry, but the five-kilometer     course is reserved. SIGN    Reserved [05:32] Midosuzi     Well, that's a shock. [05:35] Midosuzi     I heard this place was famous. [05:37] Midosuzi     I took the train and a taxi to get here. [05:40] Employee     There's actually a high school bicycle     club holding a training camp here. [05:44] Employee     They're here for four days until tomorrow. [05:48] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun and Naruko-kun are fast. [05:52] Sakamichi     Their speed is incredible,     and their cornering is fast. [05:56] Sakamichi     And they've gotten even stronger     at this training camp. [05:59] Sakamichi     They're riding right on the edge. [06:01] Imaizumi     You're so annoying.     Stop getting ahead on corners. [06:03] Naruko     Are you stupid? [06:04] Naruko     It's your fault for riding so slowly     that I'm overtaking you on them. [06:07] Imaizumi     You're not overtaking me.     I'm letting you pass me. [06:10] Sakamichi     I'm short of breath,     and I'm barely keeping up. [06:14] Sakamichi     But they're conversing normally. [06:16] Naruko     Hotshot, you take it easy. [06:19] Naruko     I'll definitely win. [06:22] Naruko     I'll pay the price. [06:25] Naruko     I'm always riding right on the edge. [06:28] Naruko     Sorry, but that's how I'm prepared to ride. [06:31] Imaizumi     The price? [06:32] Sakamichi     What price? [06:33] Imaizumi     He's certainly gotten stronger and better. [06:38] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun must have something up his sleeve. [06:42] Naruko     I'll become stronger. [06:44] Naruko     A promise is a promise. [06:46] Naruko     I quit being a sprinter,     but I have a good goal now. [06:51] Naruko     I hate doing as that hotshot said,     but I'll do whatever it takes. [06:57] Naruko     I'll become stronger and stronger. [06:59] Naruko     I'll make Idiotsuji admit defeat     and reclaim the title of sprinter! [07:06] Naruko     I'll even practice climbing     to achieve my goal! [07:12] Sakamichi     He's fast. He's accelerating! [07:14] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun's accelerating on a climb! [07:16] Imaizumi     That idiot. [07:18] Naruko     Until then, I'll abandon them. [07:21] Naruko     That's the price I'll pay. [07:24] Midosuzi     In that case... [07:26] Midosuzi     Could we at least take a look at the track? [07:29] Employee     Sure. [07:31] Employee     They asked me not to let anyone in,     but since these two came from so far away... [07:37] Rider A     Fight! [07:42] Rider B     Good work. [07:46] Midosuzi     What? [07:47] Midosuzi     What is this fun and games cycling event? [07:50] Midosuzi     This is a training camp? [07:52] Midosuzi     Gross. [07:55] Midosuzi     I came to see how they were doing     since they're the champions. [07:59] Midosuzi     But all they have are more members now. [08:01] Midosuzi     Are they sure they weren't     stronger last year? [08:04] Midosuzi     He's no good. [08:06] Midosuzi     He's weak, too. [08:09] Midosuzi     This one's not so bad. [08:12] Midosuzi     But since he's not wearing a yellow jersey,     does that mean he's not a regular? [08:18] Midosuzi     Hey, it's rooster head.     The rooster head's here. [08:21] Midosuzi     So he hasn't quit. He's still riding. [08:24] Midosuzi     Riding hard, too. [08:27] Midosuzi     I don't know what he's riding for, though. [08:31] Komari     Is that tall guy behind them their ace? [08:36] Midosuzi     That's right. That's Caterpillizumi-kun, [08:41] Midosuzi     who hasn't learned to fly yet. [08:46] Komari     It's hard to tell from so far away. [08:49] Komari     I wish we could get closer. [08:51] Komari     Ideally, I'd like to feel     his muscles for myself. [08:59] Sakamichi     It's getting cloudy. [09:00] Sakamichi     It might rain. [09:02] Sakamichi     I should get some rain gear. [09:04] Sakamichi     Maybe I'll take some for     Naruko-kun and the others. [09:08] Komari     Hello. [09:12] Sakamichi     Who are you? [09:15] Komari     My name is Komari. [09:18] Komari     I'm interested in a few things. [09:21] Komori     Could I ask you some questions? [09:31] Midosuzi     What? [09:33] Midosuzi     He disappeared. [09:36] Midosuzi     Komari... [09:37] Midosuzi     I see. He left... [09:42] Midosuzi     To meet them face to face. [09:46] Midosuzi     That guy has no restraint. [09:50] Sakamichi     What? Uh, Komari-kun? [09:54] Komari     That's right. I'm a first-year. [09:57] Komari     I'm looking for him so I can touch him. [10:00] Komari     Could you tell me all about... [10:04] Komari     Your ace, Imaizumi-san? [10:11] Sakamichi     Oh, Komari-kun. [10:13] Sakamichi     Yeah, right. Komari-kun. [10:16] Sakamichi     I know you. I asked who you were     because you showed up so suddenly. [10:21] Sakamichi     You're the new student, uh... [10:24] Sakamichi     Komori-kun, right? I remember you. SIGN    Maximum Eloquence Senior Smile [10:31] Sakamichi     Has this first-year always been on the team? [10:34] Sakamichi     We have a lot of new students this year. [10:35] Sakamichi     I'm not good at remembering faces,     but Naruko-kun said... [10:41] (Flashback) Naruko     Everyone looks up to you, Onoda-kun. [10:44] (Flashback) Naruko     You should remember the faces     and names of the first-years. [10:46] (Flashback) Naruko     They'd be disappointed if they     knew you didn't recognize them. [10:50] Sakamichi     I'll use this opportunity to     close the distance between us. [10:54] Komari     He thinks I'm one of Sohoku     High School's first-years. [10:57] Komari     He must be a second or third-year. [11:01] Komari     I don't feel any pressure from him. [11:04] Sakamichi     Ahem. Komori-kun... [11:07] Sakamichi     Okay, here we go. [11:09] Sakamichi     Time for Makishima-san's     Stimulating Conversation Skills! [11:12] Sakamichi     What... [11:13] Sakamichi     What do you do for fun? [11:15] Komari     Wash my hands. [11:15] Sakamichi     The sky sure is blue. [11:17] Komari     It's raining. [11:19] Sakamichi     This isn't stimulating at all! [11:23] Komari     Is your ace Imaizumi-san strong? [11:26] Komari     Or is he weak? [11:29] Sakamichi     What? Weak? [11:31] Sakamichi     No way. He's strong. [11:34] Sakamichi     He's fast. Can't you tell by watching him? [11:36] Sakamichi     He's always calm. He's a good guy     and easy to get along with. [11:40] Komari     Is he stronger than Midousuji-san? [11:43] Sakamichi     What? [11:49] Sakamichi     Not Naruko-kun? [11:51] Sakamichi     Wh-Why would you ask about Midousuji-kun? [11:54] Komari     Which is it? [11:59] Sakamichi     I'm not sure. [12:01] Sakamichi     From my perspective, they're equally amazing,     and they're both good people. [12:07] Komari     Good people? [12:09] Sakamichi     This is just my opinion, but... [12:12] Sakamichi     I don't think it matters if     one is better than the other. [12:22] Komari     Are you rejecting bicycle racing itself? [12:28] Komari     Once they start riding, their relative     strength and weakness becomes clear. [12:31] Komari     That's how road racing works. [12:33] Komari     Am I wrong? [12:37] Sakamichi     I'm not sure how to put it. [12:39] Sakamichi     I think you'll understand     once you start riding. [12:44] Sakamichi     But I don't think that's all there is to it. [12:47] Komari     What a strange person. Once I start riding? [12:50] Komari     He's the one who's never ridden before. [12:53] Komari     That's all racing is. [12:56] Komari     I spoke to him because he's wearing a     yellow jersey, but he must be a sub. [13:01] Sakamichi     Oh, sorry, Komori-kun. [13:04] Sakamichi     I came to get rain gear.     I'm heading back to the track. [13:07] Komari     How disappointing. [13:12] Komari     Since he was wearing glasses, [13:14] Komari     I thought he was last year's     Inter-High champion, Onoda Sakamichi... [13:32] Komari     What kind of muscles are these? [13:35] Komari     They're good! [13:38] Sakamichi     Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! [13:44] Sakamichi     My cleats slipped... [13:45] Komari     I almost made a noise. [13:49] Komari     They're so flexible and springy. [13:54] Komari     This guy must be... [13:59] Komari     Onoda-san... [14:00] Sakamichi     Huh? What? [14:02] Komari     Last year's champion, Onoda Sakamichi! [14:06] Komari     Let me... Let me touch you again. [14:10] Komari     Let me see! [14:13] Koga     What are you doing? [14:16] Koga     You're not from our team. [14:20] Sakamichi     What? [14:22] Komari     No, I'm just visiting. [14:24] Komari     I'm Kyoto Fushimi High School     first-year Kishigami Komari. [14:29] Sakamichi     What? [14:31] Komari     I'm a simple masseuse. [14:33] Komari     Don't glare at me like that. [14:36] Koga     What's Kyoto Fushimi High School doing here? [14:39] Komari     It looked like rain,     so I came here to stay dry. [14:44] Koga     I'm Sohoku High School third-year Koga. [14:47] Koga     If you have business with us,     you can speak to me. [14:49] Komari     I was mostly finished anyway. [14:52] Komari     Don't worry about it. I'll leave. [14:59] Koga     There's another one of you up there. [15:01] Koga     Both of you, get out of here. [15:04] Komari     I'm excited for this summer, Koga-senpai. [15:08] Komari     Oh, I'm sorry. [15:12] Komari     Since you're wearing that jersey,     you won't be riding in this summer's race. [15:19] Komari     It looks like the rain's letting up.     I'll be leaving now. [15:25] Midosuzi     How did it go? [15:31] Komari     It had me panting. [15:33] Komari     I nearly said something twice! [15:43] Teshima     Two riders are coming. [15:45] Aoyagi     Who will it be? [15:46] Naruko     Idiot! [15:48] Imaizumi     You can't be serious! [16:00] Naruko     All right! [16:03] Rider A     Naruko-san finished a     thousand kilometers first! [16:07] Kaburagi     How did he pull ahead at the finish line? [16:10] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun is evolving. [16:12] Sakamichi     He was going way faster     than before at the end. [16:17] Sakamichi     I'm still nowhere close to as good     as Naruko-kun and Imaizumi-kun. [16:24] Sakamichi     I have to get stronger, too. [16:26] Naruko     Hey, idiot. I won. [16:29] Imaizumi     Shut up. Don't celebrate so much     just because you happened to win. [16:34] Rider B     Naruko-san, here's a towel andー [16:36] Naruko     Nah. [16:37] Naruko     Boy, I'm thirsty. Maybe I'll     have Imaizumi-kun go get mine. [16:44] Naruko     Just like he promised. [16:46] (Flashback) Naruko     Hotshot, we're almost on our final lap. [16:49] (Flashback) Naruko     How do you feel about second place doing [16:51] (Flashback) Naruko     whatever the first to finish a     thousand kilometers says for a day? [16:57] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Fine. [17:01] Imaizumi     Here. [17:02] Naruko     Ow! [17:03] Naruko     What was that for? [17:04] Imaizumi     My hand slipped. [17:06] Naruko     I heard you say, "Here!" [17:08] ---     Yeah, but the sweat... [17:09] Teshima     What are they, kids? [17:11] Koga     Oh, right, Onoda. [17:13] Koga     When there's a crosswind,     ride one wheel closer downwind. [17:18] Sakamichi     Okay. [17:18] Koga     Usually, you ride directly behind     the wheel to avoid the wind, [17:22] Koga     but in the case of a crosswind, [17:23] Koga     you'll be blown by less wind     by riding slightly ahead. [17:27] Koga     You're a climber. Your ability     to reduce how much energy [17:31] Koga     you spend on flats affects     your team's performance. [17:34] Koga     During this training camp and our     practices until the Inter-High, [17:37] Koga     I'll teach you everything     I know about racing. [17:40] Koga     Focus while you ride. [17:42] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [17:44] Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun! [17:47] Kaburagi     You caught up? [17:48] Kaburagi     Imaizumi-san and Naruko-san     beat me, and now you, too? [17:53] Kaburagi     Damn it. [17:56] Koga     Kaburagi's struggling. [17:59] Koga     His body's not moving the way he wants. [18:03] Koga     Of course it isn't.     This course has steep slopes. [18:08] Koga     He hasn't realized it yet,     but once he does, he'll get faster. [18:12] Koga     Kaburagi Issa is definitely a sprinter. [18:19] Kaburagi     I can go fast on the flats, so why? [18:22] Kaburagi     I should be able to climb faster     if I pedal the same way. [18:26] Sakamichi     A sprinter? Kaburagi-kun? [18:30] Koga     Aoyagi said he might surpass Tadokoro-san     by the time he's a third-year, [18:34] Koga     if he trains hard. [18:35] Sakamichi     Th-That's amazing. [18:37] Sakamichi     But you're not going to tell Kaburagi-kun? [18:41] Koga     I thought he'd notice after     riding a thousand kilometers. [18:44] Koga     He's either a total idiot or a genius. SIGN    Aoyagi [18:50] Sakamichi     Hime! [18:55] Kaburagi     I managed to pass Teshima-san. [18:59] Kaburagi     There must be some way to go faster. [19:05] Kaburagi     Spri... [19:08] Kaburagi     Spring, like the season. [19:13] Kaburagi     How can I go faster? [19:16] Naruko     He's coming! [19:17] Sakamichi     You can do it, Koga-san! [19:19] Koga     Almost there. [19:23] Koga     Kinjou-san, [19:25] Koga     it took me a while, but I... [19:29] Koga     ...finally completed the      thousand-kilometer training camp. [19:33] Teshima     Good work, Kimitaka. [19:36] Koga     That was a long thousand kilometers. [19:38] Teshima     I know. [19:41] Koga     It took me three years. [19:44] Teshima     That doesn't change the fact that you did it.

[20:49] Sakamichi     Will you... [20:51] Sakamichi     Will you be watching from     far away, Makishima-san? [20:57] Sakamichi     Honestly, I feel anxious about riding     in the Inter-High without you. [21:02] Sakamichi     But I'll ride as hard as I can so I     can deliver the best possible news.

[06:42] Imaizumi     That's just how it is, Naruko. [06:45] Imaizumi     The press's actions tell us exactly     what everyone thinks of us. [06:49] Naruko     I know. [06:51] Naruko     Bring it on. [06:53] Naruko     In other words, we don't stand out enough. [06:56] Teshima     Anytime you reach great heights,     people always say the first time is a fluke. [07:01] Teshima     You have to win twice before     they'll acknowledge you. [07:04] Koga     We can do it. I'll support     you with all my might. [07:11] Teshima     Let's win again this year.

[07:23] Naruko     All the teams are here. [07:26] Naruko     There are tons of teams. They're raring to go. [07:28] Kaburagi     I expect no less from the Inter-High. [07:30] Naruko     Teams from all over the country are here. [07:33] Sakamichi     The entire country... [07:34] Naruko     They've put their lives on the line     for this day, for just three days. [07:39] Naruko     Of course they have. [07:41] Naruko     All their hopes from the past     year are riding on this race. [07:47] Naruko     Oh, right. Teshima-san... [07:48] Teshima     What is it? [07:49] Naruko     After we check in and get our number tags,     I need to disappear to take care of something. [07:54] Teshima     Something? [07:57] Naruko     Just some minor business.

Kaburagi-kun's not here. [08:19] Imaizumi     You mean the showoff?     He's off at the usual place. [08:24] Kaburagi     Aw, crap... SIGN    Kanagawa Hakone Academy High School [08:30] Fan F     Wow, that's new. [08:32] Fan G     Of course. [08:34] Fan G     This year's are assigned     based on last year's results. [08:38] Fan F     The perennial champions, Hakone Academy... [08:41] Fan G     ...are wearing two-digit tags. [08:49] Teshima     Make sure they're secured with safety pins. [08:51] Imaizumi     Got it. [08:52] Teshima     Onoda! [08:53] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [08:56] Sakamichi     What? [09:01] Naruko     What do you think of this? [09:02] Naruko     I knew these were coming, but just     look at these single-digit tags! [09:05] Naruko     I'm super hyped now! [09:08] Naruko     Take a picture of me, manager. [09:09] Naruko     Get a real good shot. [09:12] Miki     Okay. [09:13] Naruko     This is seriously awesome. [09:13] Aya     They're so excited. [09:14] Naruko     Look, hotshot. Single digits. [09:15] Aya     Are single-digit tags that big a deal? [09:16] Imaizumi     Shut up. I know. [09:17] Imaizumi     I have one, too. [09:18] Miki     Yeah. Look. [09:19] Miki     The other teams have     two or three-digit tags. [09:22] Aya     You're right. [09:23] Miki     The number on the left represents     their approximate rank last year. [09:27] Miki     The single digit tags     mean they won last year. [09:31] Aya     Huh. [09:32] Miki     The number on the right is     their rank within their team. [09:35] Miki     Since each team has six riders,     they range from one to six. [09:39] Miki     One is a special number.     It's the ace's number. [09:43] Aya     Cycling is interesting. [09:45] Miki     Isn't it? [09:47] Sakamichi     Um, Teshima-san... [09:50] Sakamichi     This tag... [09:51] Teshima     Why not? I think it looks good on you. [09:54] Sakamichi     But isn't this Imaizumi-kun's? [09:58] Imaizumi     Huh? [09:59] Teshima     Every race is the same. [10:01] Teshima     When the previous winner rides again,     he's given that tag. [10:06] Teshima     It's a symbol of victory. [10:09] Teshima     The #1 tag. [10:14] Teshima     It's a symbol of victory. [10:16] Teshima     The #1 tag. [10:20] Sakamichi     I'm... #1. [10:24] Teshima     If last year's winner was a third-year who's     since graduated, its meaning may be different. [10:29] Aoyagi     Good. [10:31] Imaizumi     You earned that number when Kinjou-san,     Tadokoro-san, Makishima-san, [10:35] Imaizumi     Naruko, and I entrusted     you with our hopes last year, [10:38] Imaizumi     and you took them to the finish line. [10:43] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [10:45] Imaizumi     Onoda, you'll be carrying     all our hopes as you ride. [10:50] Imaizumi     Hold your head high. [10:58] Sakamichi     Got it. [11:00] Teshima     Kaburagi's still not back. [11:03] Teshima     Where's Naruko? [11:05] Imaizumi     He just headed that way.

You've got some nerve! [14:18] Doubashi     You were shouting at me while you     knocked on my door, weren't you? [14:23] Kaburagi     Sorry about that.

I was having an emergency,     so I let that slip out. [14:48] Doubashi     Slip out, my ass! How did     your parents raise you? [14:51] Kaburagi     What? [14:55] Doubashi     That jersey...     You're from Sohoku High School. [14:57] Doubashi     You're a Chiba country bumpkin. [14:59] Kaburagi     What?

[15:24] Doubashi     He hasn't taken a step back,     even though I grabbed him. [15:28] Kaburagi     It wasn't luck that Sohoku High School won. [15:30] Kaburagi     Take it back, pig. [15:32] Doubashi     How could it have been anything but luck [15:34] Doubashi     that let your skinny Onoda     kid win at the very end? [15:40] Kaburagi     Onoda-san is strong! [15:41] Doubashi     You just think he's strong! [15:43] Kaburagi     What? [15:44] Doubashi     There are two types of truth. [15:46] Doubashi     The real truth, and the lie that     people are convinced is the truth. [15:51] Doubashi     He's the latter. [15:52] Doubashi     He's wearing a crown he     won through sheer luck, [15:54] Doubashi     but everyone's too scared     to doing anything about it. [15:57] Kaburagi     You're wrong! [15:58] Doubashi     Have you ever tested him? [16:00] Doubashi     Have you ever really raced him? [16:03] Doubashi     He disguises himself as     an Inter-High champion. [16:05] Doubashi     Everyone fawns over him     and thinks he's amazing. [16:09] Doubashi     Is he actually strong? [16:11] Doubashi     Is he stronger than everyone     else you've ever met? [16:18] Kaburagi     No, I know how he rides! [16:21] Kaburagi     I saw him on Mt. Fuji at     last year's Inter-High! [16:24] Kaburagi     He's the real thing! [16:26] Kaburagi     He's the reason I abandoned the other schools     and chose to come to Sohoku High School! [16:31] Doubashi     Are you sure you're not just viewing     things through a self-imposed filter? [16:35] Kaburagi     What? [16:36] Doubashi     Sohoku High School is strong.     At least, they should be. [16:40] Doubashi     They have to be strong. [16:42] Doubashi     Otherwise, the path you've followed [16:45] Doubashi     and all your work would be meaningless. [16:58] Doubashi     Face the truth, orange kid. [17:02] Doubashi     Hakone Academy High School has     the most members of any team. [17:05] Doubashi     No one can compare to how much we practice. [17:08] Doubashi     Who's stronger?

[02:55] (Flashback) Midousuji     That's your own doing. [02:58] (Flashback) Midousuji     This is strategy. [03:00] (Flashback) Hironishi     Strat— [03:02] (Flashback) Midousuji     Alternates can be subbed     in at the last second. [03:05] (Flashback) Midousuji     The system's designed to prevent sick     or injured members from riding, but... [03:11] (Flashback) Hironishi     I'm fine! [03:13] (Flashback) Midousuji     You're weaker than a Zaku. [03:16] (Flashback) Midousuji     You're always falling behind in practice.     You could never keep up. [03:20] (Flashback) Midousuji     Did you think you were strong     enough to ride on my team? [03:26] (Flashback) Hironishi     I thought I had some hidden     talent or something. [03:31] (Flashback) Midousuji     That's why you'll never be more than a Zaku. [03:36] (Flashback) Midousuji     How naïve. [03:38] (Flashback) Midousuji     I'll use Komari-kun during the race. [03:41] (Flashback) Midousuji     Your job is finished. Over. [03:45] (Flashback) Midousuji     Haven't I always told you? [03:49] (Flashback) Midousuji     Keep your trump cards until the end. SIGN    Message Received SIGN    Fight! [03:59] Yamaguchi     Hironishi seemed depressed. [04:02] Yamaguchi     Did you know he'd be kicked off the team? [04:05] Mizuta     No. [04:06] Mizuta     Anyway, all Komari ever     does is massage people. [04:11] Mizuta     Can he really ride a bike? [04:24] Rider 1     He's fast. [04:26] Rider 2     His form is beautiful, too. [04:28] Rider 1     Yeah. Wait, this is no time for that. [04:31] Rider 1     He's our opponent, too. [04:32] Rider 2     Kyoto Fushimi High School     seemed like an army last year, [04:36] Rider 2     but now they've got guys like him. [04:38] Rider 2     The way he rides is rhythmical. [04:40] Rider 2     It's like he's been set loose. [04:45] Komari     The 1.5 kilometer road encircling     the Inter-High grounds... [04:49] Komari     Participants are using it to warm up. [04:51] Komari     He must be among them. [04:56] Komari     Anyway, I feel great. [04:58] Komari     I think I'll be able to hear     plenty of your voice today. [05:07] Komari     There he is! [05:08] Komari     Calm down. The race hasn't started yet. [05:11] Komari     Approach quietly. Quietly. [05:14] Komari     Quietly approach him and nonchalantly touch him. [05:18] Sugimoto     I'm honored you invited me     to ride with you, Imaizumi. [05:23] Sugimoto     I know you're just warming up, [05:25] Sugimoto     but I can't believe we're riding     together at the Inter-High grounds. [05:29] Imaizumi     It could've been anyone. [05:31] Sugimoto     What? [05:32] Imaizumi     Teshima-san said it wouldn't be good if     something happened while I was riding alone, [05:36] Imaizumi     so he told me to go with someone. [05:37] Sugimoto     Y-You're right. Problems can be difficult     to handle when you're riding alone. [05:41] Sugimoto     You can count on me.     Problems are something I've— [05:44] Imaizumi     You seemed the least busy. [05:46] Sugimoto     What? [05:48] Sugimoto     It's still an honor, though. [05:50] Sugimoto     Sugimoto Terufumi has never been     more honored in his life, Imaizumi. [05:55] Sugimoto     You chose me during a time as important     as just before the Inter-High. [05:58] Sugimoto     You're strong, Imaizumi. [06:02] Sugimoto     Sometimes, I think about the amazing guys     on our team, including Naruko and Onoda. [06:09] Sugimoto     On top of that, we're in the same class. [06:12] Sugimoto     It must be a miracle. [06:16] Sugimoto     Since I lost to Kaburagi that day,     I can't ride in the Inter-High. [06:21] Sugimoto     But during that first-year race,     you told me to hold my head high. [06:26] Sugimoto     I failed to accomplish anything, but rather     than scolding me, that's what you said. [06:31] Sugimoto     I've been thinking since that day. [06:34] Sugimoto     I worked hard because I was     influenced by you and Onoda. [06:38] Sugimoto     Maybe, just maybe my riding—     and this may be brazen of me— [06:45] Sugimoto     But maybe I'm influencing you     and Onoda just a little bit. [06:51] Sugimoto     It builds up over time.     This warm up could be part of it. [06:55] Sugimoto     And if it helps you during the Inter-High... [06:59] Sugimoto     Then I have no regrets. [07:01] Sugimoto     I'm proud of myself. [07:04] Sugimoto     Go ride your heart out, Imaizumi. [07:08] Imaizumi     That hurts. Where did that come from? [07:10] Sugimoto     Huh? What? [07:13] Sugimoto     Sorry. I guess you could say it's my dream. [07:15] Sugimoto     I got carried away. [07:17] Imaizumi     I'm joking. [07:19] Imaizumi     You've definitely moved me. [07:23] Sugimoto     What? [07:24] Imaizumi     You can count on me. [07:28] Imaizumi     Kyoto Fushimi High School?     I didn't notice him. [07:36] Sugimoto     Imaizumi! [07:43] Komari     You're Imaizumi-san. [07:45] Komari     I heard you did a lot last year. [07:48] Komari     I've heard about you. [07:50] Komari     I'm glad we got to meet. [07:53] Imaizumi     Has this guy always been on the     Kyoto Fushimi High School team? [07:56] Imaizumi     Is he a first-year? [07:57] Komari     I'm sorry. I was so delighted,     I lost my balance. [08:02] Komari     I let out a moan. His muscles are nice. [08:05] Komari     But... [08:06] Komari     Are you not feeling well? [08:08] Sugimoto     Wh-What's wrong with you? Imaizumi's     always in perfect shape. [08:13] Sugimoto     How rude. [08:16] Komari     It was rough. [08:18] Komari     Am I right? [08:21] Sugimoto     I told you... [08:23] Komari     See you at the starting line. [08:25] Sugimoto     Hey, you're running? Hey! [08:27] Sugimoto     Hey!

Did you come from Chiba? [08:48] Higashido     Yeah. [08:49] Teshima     But don't you... [08:51] Higashido     The volleyball team lost. [08:53] Higashido     We made it pretty far, but we were     still a long way from nationals. [08:58] Teshima     I see. [09:00] Higashido     I'm jealous. [09:03] Higashido     That you get to fight at nationals,     and in your final, third year. [09:08] Higashido     My time in a club is over. [09:11] Higashido     Good luck, Teshima. [09:14] Higashido     You're a star. [09:16] Higashido     I quit the Minami Middle School bicycle club     we rode in to join the volleyball club. [09:21] Higashido     You kept riding. [09:23] Higashido     It must've been hard to become a     regular on a team that won nationals. [09:27] Higashido     But you bounced back. It's amazing. [09:31] Higashido     Don't feel bad about it. [09:33] Higashido     I know you haven't accomplished much,     but I believe from the bottom of my heart... [09:41] Higashido     You're the star of Minami Middle School. [09:46] Teshima     You can tell me that once     I accomplish something.

[10:05] Ashikiba     I thought I'd come say hi     before the race started. [10:09] Higashido     He's huge. [10:11] Teshima     Shikiba... [10:12] Higashido     What? That's Ashikiba? [10:15] Higashido     Well, if it isn't Ashikiba. [10:17] Higashido     Man, it's been a while. [10:20] Higashido     It's me. We rode together on the     Minami Middle School bicycle team. [10:23] Higashido     This brings back memories.     You're still riding? [10:27] Higashido     Hako... Hakone Academy High School? [10:31] Higashido     That Hakone Academy High School? [10:33] Higashido     Isn't that place super strong? [10:35] Higashido     You're a regular there? [10:37] Ashikiba     Sorry, who are you? [10:42] Higashido     It's Higashido. My nickname was Higashimaru. [10:46] Higashido     Remember when your saddle     fell off during practice? [10:49] Higashido     I fixed it for you. [10:50] Ashikiba     Oh, that Machida-kun. [10:52] Higashido     Yeah—no, not Machida. [10:55] Higashido     He barely ever came to practice. [10:58] Ashikiba     Oh, Machida-kun. [10:59] Ashikiba     This brings back memories. [11:00] Ashikiba     You haven't changed, Machida-kun. [11:02] Higashido     You remembered my name completely wrong. [11:06] Higashido     Well, whatever. As long as you remember me. [11:09] Teshima     Shikiba... [11:11] Higashido     Come here. Let's take a picture together. [11:16] Ashikiba     Sorry, Machida-kun. Since we're     enemies, I can't go any closer. [11:24] Ashikiba     Overthrowing Sohoku High School is our mission. [11:28] Higashido     Oh, right. Last year,     Hakone Academy High School... [11:32] Ashikiba     I'll beat you. [11:34] Ashikiba     That's all I came to say. [11:37] Teshima     I see. [11:39] Ashikiba     Jun-chan, you said we'd     conquer the world together. [11:45] Ashikiba     But sorry. Only one of us     can win at this Inter-High. [11:52] Ashikiba     We can't do it together. [11:57] Teshima     I guess not, since we're on different teams. [12:01] Ashikiba     It'll be Hakone Academy High School. [12:03] Teshima     I can't allow that. [12:07] Teshima     Good luck to both of us. [12:14] Ashikiba     I can't accept something from an enemy. [12:18] Ashikiba     You were nice to me.     You taught me how to ride a bike. [12:23] Ashikiba     But the seniors at Hakone Academy High School,     who have graduated now, [12:28] Ashikiba     taught me how to become stronger      and where I belonged. [12:33] Ashikiba     So I'm going to help this team win this year. [12:38] Ashikiba     Bye. [12:39] Higashido     Hey, wait. Ashikiba! [12:41] Ashikiba     Oh, right. SIGN    Inter-High Bicycle Race Program [12:43] Ashikiba     This year, our sixth man is incredible. [12:47] Ashikiba     Unfortunately, Sohoku High School's     steady advance won't continue. [12:52] Ashikiba     Following Manami last year, [12:54] Ashikiba     he's Hakone Academy High School's     second ever first-year member. [12:58] Ashikiba     He's #16. [13:09] Takadajou     Hey, Yuto. How long are you going     to keep riding that roller? [13:12] Takadajou     We've already been called to the starting line. [13:14] Yutao     Oh, Takadajou-san. Seriously? [13:17] Takadajou     Kuroda-senpai's on edge. [13:19] Takadajou     You're just too relaxed. [13:22] Yuto     That doesn't sound good. [13:25] Takadajou     I brought Yuto. [13:29] Izumida     What were you doing? [13:30] Yuto     Sorry, I got caught up in riding a roller. [13:34] Kuroda     You're late. And why do you     always wear that weird mask? [13:39] Yuto     It's cute, right? I kinda     want to be a little girl. [13:43] Yuto     I like it. I have three of them. [13:47] Kuroda     What are you, a dreamy-eyed girl? Get ready. [13:50] Yuto     Okay. [13:52] Izumida     He's easygoing and full of confidence. [13:56] Izumida     In that way, he's sort of like him. [13:59] Izumida     Let's go, Yuto. SIGN    Inter-High Road Race [14:03] Izumida     This is the Inter-High you     said you wanted to come to... [14:07] Izumida     Shinkai Yuto. [14:10] Yuto     The atmosphere and fans are awesome. [14:14] Yuto     It makes my heart skip a beat. [14:19] Yuto     Izumida-san, didn't you ride     with my brother last year? [14:23] Yuto     How was Hayato-kun? [14:25] Izumida     He was fast and unbelievably beautiful. [14:31] Izumida     No one was better suited to wear tag #4. [14:33] Yuto     Oh, really? [14:36] Yuto     I've never really ridden with him,     so I wouldn't know. [14:40] Yuto     After all, I'm a climber. [14:43] Sakamichi     It's starting! [14:48] Sakamichi     The Inter-High is starting soon. [14:51] Sakamichi     Twenty more minutes. What am I going to do? [14:53] Sadatoki     Onoda-san... [14:54] Aya     Your #1 is freaking out. Will he be okay? [14:58] Miki     You're right. [15:04] Sakamichi     O-Okay, I've calmed down. [15:06] Sakamichi     I'm calm. [15:07] Sadatoki     Are you okay? Here's a towel.

[15:18] Sakamichi     It's my second time. My second Inter-High... [15:22] Sakamichi     Will I be able to ride well? [15:25] Sakamichi     While wearing the most impressive number tag, [15:27] Sakamichi     will I be able to ride well,     like I did last year? [15:34] Sakamichi     Ride well? How do I do that? [15:41] Aoyagi     Second time pressure? [15:43] Koga     That's right. He's a serious man. [15:45] Koga     There's no telling how much     pressure he's feeling from how [15:48] Koga     he performed at the last Inter-High. [15:50] Koga     Not only that, but he won. He took first. [15:54] Koga     The expectations of those     around him skyrocketed. [15:56] Koga     He must be feeling it. [15:59] Koga     I tried to keep it from     bothering him, though. [16:03] Koga     The first time you can ride freely     because everything is new. [16:08] Koga     But the second time... [16:10] Koga     Doing the same thing twice     is a herculean task. [16:14] Koga     If Onoda's mental condition hasn't     recovered by the time the race starts, [16:19] Koga     then Sohoku High School... [16:22] Aoyagi     That's all, Kimitaka?

[16:53] Imaizumi     He's hopeless. [16:57] Sakamichi     I can finally get in line     and take a breather. [17:01] Naruko     Nah, we're in the front. [17:03] Imaizumi     We were last year's winning team. [17:06] Sakamichi     Huh? What? [17:14] Fan 2     You've got this! [17:16] Fan 3     Show us again this year! [17:18] Sakamichi     I can't handle being the center of attention. [17:20] Naruko     You can't tell them not     to look at you up here. [17:24] Imaizumi     There are plenty of cameras here, too. [17:28] Reporter 1     What kind of call was that? [17:29] Reporter 2     What does it mean? [17:33] Naruko     You're awful. [17:34] Aya     That can't be good. [17:36] Miki     Onoda-kun's shaking. [17:38] Aya     Should I jump in there and pop him one? [17:40] Aya     The pain might knock the tension out of him. [17:43] Miki     We can't go inside since     the race is starting. [17:46] Aya     What are we going to do     about him, then? He's #1. [17:50] Sakamichi     Calm down. Calm down. [17:52] Sakamichi     Calm down, calm down... [17:55] Sakamichi     It's no use. I can't stop shaking. [17:58] Sakamichi     I can't feel my hands. What should I do? [18:01] Sakamichi     How do I ride a bike? [18:05] Sakamichi     I have to do something. I'm #1. [18:08] Sakamichi     I'm #1! I have to do something myself... [18:15] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san... [18:16] Aya     Just one punch. [18:20] Aoyagi     Are you trying to relax? [18:21] Sakamichi     Um, I... [18:24] Sakamichi     Yes. [18:26] Aoyagi     Then I have one thing to say to you. [18:30] Sakamichi     Okay. [18:32] Aoyagi     I learned a lot from Tadokoro-san. [18:35] Aoyagi     How to ride. How to race. [18:37] Aoyagi     How to endure. [18:39] Aoyagi     Etiquette and greetings. How to eat. [18:42] Aoyagi     The will to win. The importance     of aiming for the finish line. [18:47] Aoyagi     It's not just things he taught me. [18:49] Aoyagi     I learned a lot from watching him, too. [18:52] Aoyagi     What did you learn from Makishima-san? [18:54] Sakamichi     I... I... I, uh... [18:58] Aoyagi     It may be hard to put into words, [19:00] Aoyagi     but there should be a lot of     things you learned from him. [19:14] Aoyagi     It should be flowing through     the veins inside your body. [19:20] Aoyagi     Think you can't do what you did last year? [19:24] Aoyagi     Of course not. [19:25] Aoyagi     Because you've gotten stronger. [19:28] Aoyagi     You bear the souls of our seniors. [19:32] Aoyagi     Sohoku High School is a team     that supports one another. [19:35] Aoyagi     It applies to races, but that's not all. [19:38] Aoyagi     You're a second-year now. [19:40] Aoyagi     That's the most different thing about you. [19:43] Aoyagi     There's going to be a     first-year riding this year. [19:46] Aoyagi     Carry on their legacy. Teach him. [19:48] Aoyagi     Show him with your riding. [19:49] Aoyagi     Show him everything you have in this race. [19:52] Aoyagi     Then Kaburagi will pass it     on to the next generation. [19:56] Aoyagi     Sohoku High School will become even stronger. [19:59] Sakamichi     The next generation... [20:02] (Flashback) Makishima     Become stronger. [20:03] Sakamichi     He's right. I've already received something. [20:07] Sakamichi     I'm holding so many things inside this hand. [20:11] Sakamichi     The courage to take the first step... [20:12] Sakamichi     Friends who support me... [20:14] (Flashback) Makishima     We're counting on you to     carry our Sohoku, Sakamichi. [20:20] Sakamichi     Got it. [20:23] Sakamichi     I'll make Sohoku High School stronger. [20:26] Sakamichi     Guys! [20:30] Koga     Aoyagi... [20:31] Koga     I see. [20:33] (Flashback) Aoyagi     It's simple. I'll give him a job. [20:37] (Flashback) Koga     A job? [20:38] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'll narrow down what he     has to do to one thing. [20:42] (Flashback) Aoyagi     That will make him strong. [20:45] (Flashback) Teshima     Climb past 100 guys! [20:47] (Flashback) Aoyagi     He already has the mindset     to charge straight ahead. [20:54] Koga     Aoyagi Hajime, you're unbelievable. [20:59] Sakamichi     Let's go! [21:00] Naruko     Yeah! [21:00] Imaizumi     I've been waiting for this! [21:02] Teshima     I was going to do that.     Don't take that from me! [21:07] Sakamichi     We are one! [21:09] All     Yeah! [21:13] Fan 1     Wow, it's starting to heat up. [21:15] Fan 2     This year's Inter-High     should be on fire, too.

[00:24] Sakamichi     I'll probably never get     used to this excitement. [00:29] Sakamichi     Everyone here is riding for the finish line. [00:32] Sakamichi     My second Inter-High has begun. [00:36] Sakamichi     There's no turning back now. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [02:10] Fans     You can do it! [02:12] Sakamichi     I can feel the pressure emanating from them. SIGN    RIDE.18 The Swelling Aoyagi [02:18] Imaizumi     Calm down. We're still in the parade section. [02:21] Fans     Sohoku! [02:21] Sakamichi     What? [02:22] Imaizumi     Don't you remember last year? [02:23] Fans     Onoda! [02:24] Imaizumi     The first two kilometers     of the race are a parade. [02:26] Fans     Imaizumi! [02:26] Imaizumi     It's a chance to respond     to the cheers of the crowd. [02:28] Fans     Naruko! [02:29] Imaizumi     We're last year's champions. [02:32] Sakamichi     R-Right. [02:35] Imaizumi     Look at him. He's really getting into it. [02:37] Naruko     Thank you, thank you! Thank you, thank you! [02:40] Naruko     That's right! I'm Naruko Shoukichi,      the Red Bullet! [02:43] Naruko     I'm going to be flashy again this year! [02:45] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun is amazing. [02:47] Imaizumi     He's overdoing it. [02:49] Imaizumi     No, wait. Hakone Academy High School     might've been just as... [02:53] Imaizumi     No, they weren't. [02:54] Imaizumi     No, wait. Maybe him... [03:01] Imaizumi     Does everyone who wears     tag #3 act like that? [03:05] Teshima     The pressure's different when there are this     many people in the crowd. Right, Aoyagi? [03:09] Teshima     The Inter-High is on its own level. [03:13] Teshima     This is our last chance to relax. [03:15] Teshima     Let me say this while I still     have the chance, Hajime. [03:19] Teshima     We finally made it. [03:21] Teshima     We're on this side of the fence. [03:26] Teshima     It took three years from that day. [03:29] Teshima     We couldn't bring Tadokoro-san with us. [03:34] Teshima     It's our first and last Inter-High. [03:36] Teshima     I'm counting on you, Hajime. [03:39] Aoyagi     Yeah, Junta. [03:43] Teshima     I'm trembling. [03:44] Aoyagi     Don't worry. I'll stop it for you. [03:47] Teshima     I'm relieved. [03:51] Rider A     Hakone Academy High School. [03:52] Rider B     The repeat champions possess     a different kind of intensity. [03:54] Rider C     They seem so composed despite the tension. [03:57] Rider C     They're like predators closing in on prey. [03:59] Rider A     Prey? You mean Sohoku High School? [04:01] Rider C     No, you idiot. [04:02] Rider B     Then who? [04:03] Rider C     Isn't it obvious? [04:05] Rider C     Hakone Academy High School's     prey is all of us! [04:09] Rider C     The first result and green tag for     the fastest sprinter on the flats. [04:13] Rider C     The glorious red tag for the     best climber in the mountains. [04:17] Rider C     The champion's yellow tag. [04:20] Rider C     They'll be going for all of them. [04:22] Rider C     They have the right members to do it. [04:24] Sakamichi     Excuse me. Excuse me. [04:25] Sakamichi     Coming through. [04:27] Rider A     What's going on? Someone's coming back. [04:27] Sakamichi     Excuse me. Sorry. [04:29] Rider B     Is that Sohoku High School? [04:29] Sakamichi     Excuse me. Coming through. [04:31] Rider C     And he's wearing tag #1! [04:36] Sakamichi     Manami-kun! [04:37] Sakamichi     I finally found you. [04:39] Manami     Sakamichi-kun... [04:41] Izumida     Onoda... [04:42] Kuroda     This guy is... [04:43] Kaburagi     ...Onoda Sakamichi. [04:44] Yuto     Wow, tag #1! [04:48] Sakamichi     I tried to go see you before the     race started, but I was too busy. [04:51] Sakamichi     I, um... [04:54] Sakamichi     I'm a second-year now. [04:57] Manami     I know. So am I. [05:02] Manami     It's been a while. [05:03] Sakamichi     Yeah. I didn't get to see you guys in Akiba. [05:06] Sakamichi     I got your water bottle, though. [05:09] Manami     That's great. [05:10] Manami     We haven't ridden together since that day. SIGN    Closed For Winter [05:24] (Flashback) Toudou     What's wrong? You both seem down. [05:27] (Flashback) Toudou     We're in the mountains. We're climbing. [05:28] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But it's winter. [05:30] (Flashback) Manami     It's cold, Toudou-san. [05:32] (Flashback) Toudou     That's all right. You'll warm up     once you start riding. [05:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Um, where's the party you     mentioned in your letter? SIGN    Feb. 21 We are having a party on the Hakone Road Turnpike. You will come, Onoda Sakamichi-kun. We will be waiting. And, oh yes. Don't forget your bicycle. Bring your winter jersey, shoe covers, gloves, inner tubes and helmet, too. Toudou Jinpachi [05:40] (Flashback) Toudou     This is it! [05:42] (Flashback) Toudou     Unfortunately, the snow will limit your     vision a bit, but it shouldn't be a problem. [05:46] (Flashback) Manami     It's definitely a problem. [05:47] (Flashback) Toudou     Nope. [05:48] (Flashback) Sakamichi     H-How far are we climbing? [05:50] (Flashback) Toudou     To the top, of course. [05:52] (Flashback) Manami     Just the two of us? [05:54] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What about you, Toudou-san? [05:57] (Flashback) Toudou     I'd never ride in this freezing cold snow. [06:00] (Flashback) Both     What? [06:01] (Flashback) Toudou     Ride. If you don't ride, it's meaningless. [06:05] (Flashback) Both     What? [06:07] (Flashback) Toudou     I'll be graduating soon. [06:09] (Flashback) Toudou     Before I do, [06:10] (Flashback) Toudou     I need to pass on the titles     "King of the Mountain" and "Mountain God." [06:17] (Flashback) Toudou     It has to be one of you. [06:25] (Flashback) Manami     This road sucks. [06:27] (Flashback) Manami     The patches of snow     are making my tires slip. [06:30] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. The falling snow's bad, too. [06:32] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I can't see. [06:34] (Flashback) Manami     But it's kind of... [06:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [06:36] (Flashback) Manami     It's fun. [06:38] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [06:42] (Flashback) Toudou     How did it go? Who won? [06:44] (Flashback) Toudou     Manami, Four-Eyes... [06:47] (Flashback) Both     We couldn't do it. [06:48] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Partway up the mountain there was too     much snow. We couldn't keep riding. [06:53] (Flashback) Toudou     I see. That's unfortunate. [06:55] (Flashback) Toudou     It can't be helped, then. [06:57] (Flashback) Toudou     We'll have to postpone this race     until the summer's Inter-High. [07:03] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:03] (Flashback) Manami     I guess so. [07:05] (Flashback) Toudou     Don't be late this year, Manami. [07:07] (Flashback) Manami     I can't guarantee that. [07:09] (Flashback) Toudou     Oh, right. Give Four-Eyes your number. [07:12] (Flashback) Toudou     Have him call you the day of the race. [07:13] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Your number? Okay. [07:19] Manami     Sakamichi-kun... [07:22] Manami     Do you still like climbs? [07:26] Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:27] Manami     Then let's race. [07:29] Manami     It's decided. [07:30] Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:32] Manami     On that mountain... [07:34] Manami     Let's squeeze every bit of strength     and fight to the end! [07:43] Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:45] Sakamichi     Well, I'd better get going. [07:48] Yuto     Should you have made that promise? [07:53] Yuto     Izumida-san told me to beat him     once we enter the mountains. [08:01] Manami     You're only able to say that because you've     never ridden against Sakamichi-kun before. [08:06] Manami     Don't worry. [08:08] Manami     Where and when don't matter. [08:11] Manami     We only agreed to ride together. [08:14] Manami     It's a small promise, but he     always keeps his promises. [08:22] Imaizumi     They'll be coming soon. [08:24] Imaizumi     Once they wave that flag,     the parade run will be over. [08:28] Imaizumi     The race will start. [08:30] Sakamichi     Okay. [08:35] Sakamichi     The battle is starting! [08:41] Ohori     Move aside, small fries! [08:43] Ohori     The sprinter's pride and first result [08:45] Ohori     belongs to Ohori from     Fukuoka Jousei High School! [08:49] Izumida     Go, Doubashi. [08:52] Rider A     It's Hakone Academy High School's Doubashi. [08:54] Rider B     He's huge. [08:55] Rider B     He makes Izumida look small. [08:58] Rider C     He's Hakone Academy High School's undefeated     sprinter who tears up the road, [09:03] Rider C     Road Monster Doubashi! [09:05] Doubashi     This race is starting to heat up. [09:08] Izumida     This is the Inter-High. [09:10] Izumida     As captain of Hakone Academy High School, [09:13] Izumida     I know I should keep my personal     feelings out of the race. [09:16] Izumida     But... [09:17] Izumida     My right pec Andy and my     left pec Frank are excited. [09:22] Izumida     They're overjoyed. [09:25] Izumida     First, Doubashi, push aside the other     teams and take the first result. [09:30] Izumida     And... [09:33] Izumida     Whatever you do, don't lose     to Sohoku High School! [09:38] Doubashi     Simple. That's an easy order, Izumida-san. [09:41] Izumida     My heart is leaping with joy. [09:44] Izumida     This is why I love the Inter-High. [09:46] Izumida     Go, Doubashi! [09:50] Rider C     They released a rampaging beast     on the Inter-High course! [09:54] Doubashi     Move! Move, or I'll crush you! [10:02] Rider D     Doubashi? [10:03] Doubashi     Come on! Go faster! [10:05] Doubashi     If you ride that slowly,     even the ants will catch up to you! [10:09] Teshima     Aoyagi, Kaburagi. [10:11] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [10:12] Teshima     Go. [10:13] Rider A     Sohoku High School's making their move, too. [10:15] Rider A     It's third-year sprinter Aoyagi Hajime. [10:18] Rider B     And first-year Kaburagi, #6! [10:21] Rider C     Sohoku High School's sending     two guys this year, too. [10:23] Teshima     Begin the pursuit. [10:25] Teshima     Chase down the sprinters in front of us     and Hakone Academy High School! [10:29] Kaburagi     Wait, Teshima-san. [10:33] Kaburagi     We should have Naruko-san go here     and save me for the finish line. [10:37] Kaburagi     After all, I'm an all-rounder. [10:41] Sakamichi     Huh? What? [10:45] Kaburagi     Who will race for the finish line if not me? [10:49] Aoyagi     Quit complaining. It's an order. [10:49] Kaburagi     Ow, ow! Let go! [10:54] Kaburagi     Let go! Teshima-san, take     back your mistake, and... [10:57] Aoyagi     Let's go. [10:58] Sakamichi     You haven't told Kaburagi-kun what Koga-san     said about his legs at the training camp? [11:05] Teshima     Nope. [11:08] Teshima     I'm counting on you, Aoyagi. [11:14] Koga     Hurry, Sugimoto. [11:16] Sugimoto     Yes, sir. [11:17] Aya     There's always a rush right after the start. [11:21] Miki     Yeah, it's hard work. [11:23] Aya     Why do you look so happy? [11:27] Sugimoto     Sawada, Gorizou, Sadatoki... [11:30] Sugimoto     Follow us in the bus. [11:32] All     Yes, sir. [11:33] Aya     Is it really okay for us to ride in the van? [11:35] Miki     Of course. [11:37] Miki     There's a lot to do in the feed zones     that require a woman's touch. [11:41] Aya     I don't really have that. [11:43] Aya     Well, I'll do my best. [11:44] Koga     Kanzaki-san, we're counting on you. [11:47] Toji     Leave it to me. [11:49] Danchiku     Sugimoto-san... [11:50] Sugimoto     Danchiku. [11:52] Danchiku     Please take care of Issa—of Kaburagi Issa. [11:56] Danchiku     Cheer him on at the feed zone for me. [11:59] Sugimoto     Got it. [12:01] Danchiku     I want him to ride with no regrets     in the race of his dreams. [12:06] Danchiku     Issa and I always rode together     during middle school. [12:10] Sugimoto     Kaburagi's got a good friend in you. [12:13] Koga     Danchiku, get in. [12:15] Danchiku     What? [12:16] Koga     Sugimoto, could you pack our gear in     tighter and get out the spare seat? [12:19] Sugimoto     I'll try. [12:21] Danchiku     But I... [12:24] Koga     You should tell him your pure wish yourself. [12:29] Koga     You'll give him strength as he rides. [12:33] Danchiku     Yes, sir. [12:34] Toji     Okay, let's go. [12:40] Kaburagi     Why am I being made to participate     in a sprinter's race? [12:42] Kaburagi     Did Teshima-san make a mistake? [12:45] Kaburagi     I told him I'm an all-rounder     a bunch of times. [12:48] Kaburagi     Maybe he thought I said "all-binder." [12:51] Kaburagi     A binder closes, the way I'm a closer of races. [12:54] Rider E     It's Sohoku High School. [12:55] Rider F     They caught up. [12:57] Rider G     Two? Sohoku High School sent     two sprinters again this year? [13:01] Kaburagi     What? [13:02] Kaburagi     I'm not a sprinter! [13:04] Kaburagi     You got that? [13:05] Rider G     Hey, I'm a second-year! [13:08] Kaburagi     I don't care! I'm Sohoku     High School's secret ace! [13:11] Kaburagi     I'm the all-rounder, Kaburagi Issa! [13:13] Rider G     You should care. [13:15] Aoyagi     Sorry. [13:16] Rider G     Oh, no. It's fine. [13:19] Aoyagi     Question, Kaburagi. [13:22] Aoyagi     This pack isn't the lead pack yet. [13:24] Aoyagi     Forty-three sprinters jumped     ahead at the signal. [13:28] Kaburagi     You were counting? [13:30] Aoyagi     We've passed thirteen so far. So... [13:33] Kaburagi     There's twenty left! [13:35] Aoyagi     Thirty. [13:36] Kaburagi     Huh? [13:39] Aoyagi     Excluding the eight guys here,     there are twenty-two in front of us. [13:43] Aoyagi     Among them is one of     Hakone Academy High School's riders. [13:46] Kaburagi     I see. [13:48] Aoyagi     The first day of the course runs     north along National Route 119. SIGN    Touhoku      Roadway [13:53] Aoyagi     We'll pass through wide two-lane city     streets in practically a straight line. SIGN    Kinugawa     River SIGN    Touhoku     Bullet     Train SIGN    Nikkou     Road [13:57] Aoyagi     That'll turn into a one-lane     road passing under the highway. [14:01] Aoyagi     Just past where the road starts to be lined     with pine trees is a three-way intersection. [14:05] Aoyagi     That's the first result line. [14:07] Aoyagi     The green number tag line. [14:09] Kaburagi     Really? [14:11] Aoyagi     The road just before the line     is lined with pine trees. [14:14] Aoyagi     We'll be mostly unaffected by the wind. [14:16] Aoyagi     If we don't pass those twenty-two sprinters,     they'll take first place away from us. [14:21] Kaburagi     I see. [14:24] Aoyagi     His eyes changed. [14:25] Aoyagi     Pull. It's your turn next. [14:27] Rider E     Damn. Sohoku High School's moving. [14:30] Rider F     Stop them. [14:31] Kaburagi     You can't stop us! [14:32] Rider E     They're fast. [14:34] Shimizu     There's a ninety-degree turn ahead. [14:35] Shimizu     I'll push my way into it. [14:37] Shimizu     I'm Kochi Tosaumi High School's     sprinter, Shimizu. [14:40] Shimizu     They call me the Corner Magician. [14:43] Shimizu     No one's cornering is sharper than mine! [14:49] Shimizu     You can't be serious! [14:52] Shimizu     They're unbelievable. [14:54] Shimizu     That switch, that rise... [14:57] Shimizu     He's a natural-born sprinter! [15:01] Kaburagi     What? That's odd. [15:03] Kaburagi     Why can't anyone keep up with me     when I'm just an all-rounder? [15:10] Kaburagi     I don't know if this is the second or third, [15:12] Kaburagi     but we've caught up to     the pack in front of us. [15:14] Kaburagi     You're next, Aoyagi-san. [15:16] Aoyagi     Got it. [15:20] Yagura     You've arrived, Sohoku High School. [15:21] Yagura     I'm the sprinter of the North, Niigata     Jouetsu Higashi High School's Yaguramaru. [15:26] Yagura     Last year you had Tadokoro, but this     year's Sohoku High School is so small. [15:38] Yagura     H-He's not small! [15:39] Yagura     His body transformed! [15:42] Aoyagi     You mean torso. [15:43] Aoyagi     Your muscles expand when you use them. [15:47] Aoyagi     Apparently, my difference     in size is a bit extreme. [15:50] Aoyagi     My torso has currently expanded     to its maximum size. [15:54] Aoyagi     In other words, I'm about to... [15:56] Aoyagi     Start riding as hard as I can! [15:59] Aoyagi     Tadokoro-san's Supersonic     Oxygen Human Bullet! [16:06] Yagura     Huh? They're already out of sight. [16:09] Kaburagi     Wow, we pulled ahead of them in no time. [16:13] Kaburagi     It feels seriously awesome to do     something like this at the Inter-High. [16:18] Kaburagi     But spare a thought for the     guy behind you, Aoyagi-san. [16:22] Kaburagi     After all, I'm not a sprinter. [16:24] Kaburagi     I almost fell behind. [16:28] Aoyagi     Yaguramaru's a top-class sprinter, too. [16:30] Kaburagi     What? [16:31] Aoyagi     He kept up. [16:36] (Flashback) Aoyagi     All out? [16:37] (Flashback) Teshima     That's right. If you have     the opportunity, test him. [16:41] (Flashback) Teshima     Sprint as hard as you     can with him behind you. [16:43] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Are you sure you want 100%?     What if he falls behind? [16:47] (Flashback) Teshima     Then you'll have to leave him behind. [16:50] (Flashback) Teshima     Unfortunately, if he can't     keep up, either way... [16:54] (Flashback) Teshima     He won't stand a chance at the front. [16:56] Kaburagi     What are you talking about? [16:58] Kaburagi     That Yagura-san can't be top-class. [17:00] Aoyagi     He kept up with me at 100% acceleration,     Junta. On top of that... [17:06] Kaburagi     Are you sure he's not a climber? [17:09] Aoyagi     He's still talking. [17:11] Aoyagi     In other words, he stands a     chance at the front of the pack. [17:15] Kaburagi     I see the pack in front of us. [17:18] Kaburagi     Once we catch up,     it'll be my turn. Let's switch. [17:22] Kaburagi     Finally. [17:23] Aoyagi     Let's head to the front, Kaburagi. [17:26] Kaburagi     What's gotten into you, Aoyagi-san? [17:27] Kaburagi     You seem happy. [17:29] Aoyagi     Shut up, and follow me! [17:31] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [17:32] Aoyagi     Human Bullet! [17:36] Rider A     The sprinters who gave up on the     first result are falling back. [17:39] Rider B     Is Hakone Academy High School's     Doubashi in the front? [17:42] Rider C     He went flying ahead at a crazy speed. [17:45] Rider A     I heard Fukuoka's Ohori is     in good shape this year. [17:49] Rider B     Who's the fastest sprinter? [17:51] Naruko     I really want to go! [17:54] Naruko     My body's saying, "Are you stupid?     Why are you riding so slowly on the flats?" [17:59] Naruko     I could probably still make it if I left now. [18:01] Naruko     I could slip past these guys and     take this year's first result! [18:05] Naruko     This is the Inter-High. [18:06] Naruko     They're racing to see who's the fastest. [18:08] Naruko     When will you go if not now,     Naruko Shoukichi? [18:11] Naruko     My blood is screaming! [18:14] Naruko     I can't take it! [18:15] Naruko     I'm going. [18:19] Imaizumi     You're enduring it well, Naruko. [18:22] Naruko     W-Well, yeah. Th-This is nothing. [18:27] Naruko     That was close. [18:29] Imaizumi     As a guy who loves being flashy, [18:31] Imaizumi     it must've been hard not participating     in a sprint through the city. [18:35] Naruko     I'm totally fine. [18:37] Imaizumi     Your expression fails to match your words. [18:40] Imaizumi     Whatever the case, I'm grateful you     switched to being an all-rounder. [18:46] Naruko     I didn't do it for you, idiot. [18:48] Izumida     You're not going, Sohoku High School's     Naruko Shoukichi? [18:52] Naruko     Hakone Academy High School's Lashes! [18:54] Naruko     He's here to spy on us. [18:56] Naruko     I thought it'd be no fun if I raced,     since it'd be a blowout. [19:00] Naruko     I let my senior and junior go instead. [19:03] Izumida     Is this their plan? [19:04] Izumida     He doesn't seem unwell. [19:07] Izumida     We sent Doubashi since he's been     doing well since this spring. [19:10] Naruko     You're acting calm, but you're     actually desperate to go, aren't you? [19:15] Izumida     Frank... [19:18] Izumida     There's no point in hiding it. [19:20] Izumida     That's exactly right, Naruko-kun. [19:22] Izumida     Are you sad you don't get     to hear me shout "abs, abs"? [19:26] Naruko     It's the perfect way to cheer someone up. [19:29] Naruko     I wanted to show off my secret weapon, too. [19:35] Izumida     Then shall we race, Naruko-kun? [19:38] Naruko     Bring it on, Lashes! [19:41] Izumida     All the muscles in my body are screaming! [19:45] Naruko     My blood's about to boil because of you! [19:48] Naruko     You've reminded me of last year's battle! [19:52] Naruko     It's 200 meters to the big flag up ahead. [19:55] Naruko     Let's see who reaches it first! [19:57] Izumida     Very well! Abs! [19:59] Both     It's on! [20:01] Imaizumi     Wait, Naruko. [20:01] Kuroda     Wait, Touichirou. [20:03] Imaizumi     Don't waste your energy. [20:05] Imaizumi     The race has only just started. [20:09] Kuroda     Don't jump ahead, Touichirou. [20:12] Kuroda     What are you, a grasshopper? [20:14] Izumida     My muscles are delighted to have     returned to the Inter-High. [20:19] Izumida     I was expressing how they felt. [20:21] Kuroda     Are you a pervert? [20:22] Izumida     Is that a compliment, Yuki? [20:26] Izumida     My muscles have gotten stronger. [20:28] Izumida     They've become more flexible. [20:31] Izumida     Far more than last year. [20:37] Naruko     I could tell through his clothes. [20:41] Izumida     We'll race later, Naruko-kun. [20:44] Naruko     Yeah. [20:46] Izumida     By the way, what kind of sprinters did     Sohoku High School send to the sprint battle? [20:51] Naruko     What? [20:52] Izumida     Our Doubashi is even more abnormal than me. [20:57] Naruko     Abnormal? [20:59] Izumida     He never slacks off. [21:02] Izumida     He's proud to be a part of     Hakone Academy High School. [21:05] Izumida     He's blessed with a powerful body,     and he's as competitive as a beast. [21:09] Izumida     It's as they say. He's a monster. [21:13] Izumida     If all you're challenging him with     is a bit of hard work or talent, [21:17] Izumida     you won't beat him. [21:19] Izumida     Everyone who has challenged him     and lost says the same thing. [21:24] Izumida     "The moment I caught up to him,     all the hairs on my body stood up, [21:28] Izumida     and my legs quailed." [21:31] Izumida     He's even more abnormal than I am. [23:10] Manami     It's cold. I need a kotatsu. [23:13] Toudou     It's because you're so lightly dressed. [23:17] Toudou     Here, put this on. You, too, Four-Eyes. [23:20] Sakamichi     B-But won't you be cold, Toudou-san? [23:24] Toudou     Don't worry. [23:26] Toudou     Not only can I climb,     but I'm also cold-resistant. [23:28] Toudou     On top of that, I'm beautiful. [23:30] Toudou     No matter where or when I am, I'm perfect. SIGN    NEXT RIDE Road Monster Doubashi SIGN    This is a work of fiction.

[04:02] Aoyagi     Kaburagi! [04:03] Doubashi     Fine. Riding's the best     way to shut an idiot up. [04:08] Aoyagi     He's moving. [04:09] Aoyagi     His pressure just skyrocketed. [04:11] Doubashi     I was just getting bored with taking it easy. [04:14] Rider A     Crap, Doubashi's going to increase his pace! [04:17] Rider A     After him! [04:18] Rider B     Senpai, I can't.

[04:37] Aoyagi     But before I knew it,     he was five meters ahead. [04:39] Aoyagi     While I was getting in position,     he got ten meters ahead. [04:44] Aoyagi     I knew it was coming,     but I couldn't react in time. [04:47] Aoyagi     Three kilometers until the first result line. [04:51] Aoyagi     This is the end. [04:53] Kaburagi     Is it time yet? [04:56] Kaburagi     Are you ready? How much longer? [04:58] Kaburagi     I'm ready to pull. [05:00] Kaburagi     Isn't that our strategy to catch up? [05:02] Kaburagi     I heard what they said. [05:04] Kaburagi     Sohoku High School always     cuts it close, right? [05:07] Aoyagi     He's an unbelievable idiot. [05:11] Aoyagi     You think we can catch up? [05:12] Kaburagi     Well, with the way that pig accelerated,     even an all-rounder like me could catch up! [05:25] Kaburagi     I'm catching glimpses of him. [05:28] Kaburagi     We're keeping up in acceleration. [05:29] Kaburagi     We'll gradually catch up to him. [05:31] Kaburagi     But there's two and a half kilometers left. [05:33] Kaburagi     We don't have time to take it slow! [05:40] Aoyagi     His pressure increased when he     grasped his lower handlebars. [05:44] Kaburagi     Here we go. Don't fall behind. [05:47] Kaburagi     Did you notice? [05:49] Kaburagi     I just grabbed my lower handlebars     for the first time this race. [05:54] Kaburagi     I'd been holding my uppers this whole time. [05:56] Kaburagi     I thought it'd be cool to have     a sealed move in reserve. [06:02] Aoyagi     He's leaning so far forward. [06:04] Aoyagi     But his reason seems so stupid. [06:06] Aoyagi     Cool? Sealed move? [06:08] Kaburagi     I was hoping to hold onto it until     just before the finish line, though. [06:12] Aoyagi     And he wanted to know if I noticed? [06:15] Aoyagi     Kaburagi, I've been watching from behind,     and while we were passing the others, [06:19] Aoyagi     you were holding your lower handlebars. [06:21] Aoyagi     Did you not notice? [06:26] Aoyagi     It doesn't matter. [06:27] Kaburagi     Lower handlebar released! [06:30] Aoyagi     Advance, Kaburagi!

[10:01] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san, do you believe in God? [10:05] Aoyagi     Where did that come from? [10:09] Kaburagi     During middle school,     Danchiku and I joined Team SS. [10:15] Kaburagi     They were tough and strict. [10:18] Kaburagi     They had a lot of rules, too. [10:20] Kaburagi     But I wanted to get stronger,     so I grit my teeth and kept riding. [10:25] Kaburagi     I was always frustrated. [10:27] Kaburagi     They told me not to smile, except when I won. [10:31] Kaburagi     I thought I was riding to win. [10:33] Kaburagi     I worked hard, but I didn't     really see results. [10:37] Kaburagi     It's strange, though. [10:39] Kaburagi     Since I started high school     and joined this team... [10:42] Kaburagi     Imaizumi-san is too logical and sarcastic. [10:46] Kaburagi     Naruko-san is overbearing and annoying. [10:48] Kaburagi     And Onoda-san, who I thought     I admired, is unreliable. [10:53] Kaburagi     But I'm having so much fun. [10:55] Kaburagi     What do you suppose this feeling is? [10:57] Kaburagi     Chasing after the pig in front of us is     really tough and takes everything I have, [11:02] Kaburagi     but I'm having a lot of fun. [11:05] Kaburagi     I feel like I've gotten stronger     since joining this team. [11:10] Kaburagi     Watching Koga-san, Sugimoto-san,     Teshima-san, and everyone else ride [11:14] Kaburagi     has made something well up inside me. [11:18] Kaburagi     I feel like they're pushing me forward. [11:21] Kaburagi     Oh, but not so much you, Aoyagi-san. [11:25] Kaburagi     You don't really push. [11:26] Aoyagi     Hey. [11:27] Aoyagi     Quit complaining. [11:29] Aoyagi     Do you think we can catch up? [11:31] Kaburagi     I honestly have a feeling we can. [11:33] Kaburagi     I've been conserving my energy. [11:37] Kaburagi     And this is the first time I've told anyone,     but I have God on my side. [11:42] Kaburagi     The god of Orange Beena! [11:44] Aoyagi     You're right. [11:46] Aoyagi     Your stupidity, your unyielding spirit... [11:50] Aoyagi     Your desire to show off. [11:53] Aoyagi     They're all things a sprinter needs, Kaburagi!

[12:17] Izumida     They should be approaching     the first result line soon. [12:20] Izumida     The two from Sohoku High     School should be catching up. [12:24] Izumida     If they do, show them. [12:26] Izumida     Overwhelm them with your true strength. [12:30] Izumida     I doubt I have to tell     you to do that, though, abs. [12:33] Izumida     Not if you're the Monster     of Hakone Doubashi that I, [12:36] Izumida     Izumida Touichirou, know so well.

[12:56] Doubashi     After all, I'm right! [12:58] (Flashback) Doubashi     Why do I have to assist? [13:00] (Flashback) Senpai     I've told you a bunch of times already. [13:02] (Flashback) Senpai     It's because you're a first-year     and Hamauchi's a third-year. [13:05] (Flashback) Doubashi     I'm faster than him. [13:07] (Flashback) Doubashi     Speed wins. That's how racing works. [13:09] (Flashback) Senpai     Control yourself. [13:11] (Flashback) Senpai     Hamauchi's a third-year. It's his last race.

[13:19] (Flashback) Manager     Why would a first-year     hit third-year Hamauchi? [13:21] (Flashback) Doubashi     I controlled myself. I did as I was told. [13:25] (Flashback) Doubashi     I controlled myself and launched     Hamauchi-san before the finish line. [13:29] (Flashback) Doubashi     I put him in the perfect position.

[07:02] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy High School's #15 was     big and seemed strong, so I thought... [07:08] Teshima     You mean Doubashi? [07:09] Teshima     He's in your grade. He's a second-year. [07:13] Sakamichi     What?! [07:15] Teshima     If size were the determining factor,     then Aoyagi would lose. [07:19] Teshima     But that's not what road racing is about. [07:22] Teshima     It's a combination of willpower,     conditions, teamwork, and strategy. [07:28] Teshima     You use everything you can     to find an opportunity. [07:32] Teshima     You work together, strategize,     look out for your teammates, [07:36] Teshima     give everything you've got, and throw     your wheels across the finish line. [07:40] Teshima     I'm betting on Aoyagi. [07:45] Teshima     Believe in the strength of     Aoyagi and Kaburagi, Onoda. [07:50] Teshima     Remember what he said?     It's not the two of them. [07:55] Teshima     The six of us together are a team. [07:59] Doubashi     Run faster, little Bambi! [08:06] Aoyagi     I won't last much longer. [08:08] Aoyagi     Damn it.

[08:41] Kaburagi     I got a really bad feeling     about this, so I followed him! [08:49] Teshima     We have two cards up our sleeve,     so we'll make full use of both of them.

[09:03] Doubashi     Was he sticking behind me? No... [09:07] Doubashi     But I turned around to check numerous times. [09:09] Doubashi     I know I didn't see him. [09:13] Doubashi     Was he hiding in the blind     spot created by my jersey? [09:19] Doubashi     Orange! [09:20] Kaburagi     Pig! [09:22] Aoyagi     It was one in ten thousand. [09:25] Aoyagi     I only told Kaburagi to pull for me     so I could go all out at the end. [09:31] Aoyagi     But he sensed the danger in a moment     and reflexively pursued Doubashi. [09:39] Aoyagi     I can't believe he caught up. [09:41] Aoyagi     I only imagined there might be a one in ten     thousand chance that this might happen. [09:46] Aoyagi     He's an idiot... [09:47] Aoyagi     But he's perceptive. [09:50] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san! [09:54] Kaburagi     Get behind me! [09:56] Kaburagi     I'll pull for you again. [09:57] Kaburagi     I'll launch you. [09:58] Kaburagi     I need you to sprint. [10:00] Kaburagi     Let me handle this pig, Aoyagi-san! [10:03] Fan     Three hundred and fifty meters left! [10:06] Doubashi     Don't get ahead of yourselves. [10:08] Doubashi     Increasing your numbers from one     to two won't change anything. [10:11] Doubashi     I'll pass you, too, orange! [10:15] Kaburagi     A sprinter like Aoyagi-san won't have     any trouble with a sub like you, pig! [10:20] Aoyagi     There's a light shining... [10:23] Aoyagi     On Sohoku High School. [10:25] Aoyagi     If I used my Bambi Style, I thought... [10:28] Kaburagi     What? Where's the light? [10:30] Aoyagi     I thought I could pull ahead of Doubashi. [10:32] Aoyagi     I thought I'd make it to the result line. [10:35] Aoyagi     But he's stronger than I thought. [10:38] Aoyagi     He stopped my legs of certain     escape and caught up. [10:43] Aoyagi     I thought I might not be able to win. [10:48] Aoyagi     You should take the sprint. [10:51] Aoyagi     You're the light, Kaburagi. [10:54] Aoyagi     You can do it. [10:57] Kaburagi     I can't! [10:58] Kaburagi     I'm an all-rounder! [11:00] Aoyagi     What? He's still saying that? [11:03] Aoyagi     I take back what I said. [11:05] Aoyagi     He's totally imperceptive. [11:07] Aoyagi     Do it! [11:08] Kaburagi     I can't! [11:09] Aoyagi     Take it! [11:10] Kaburagi     I can't! [11:11] Kaburagi     The pig is accelerating. [11:12] Kaburagi     He's entering a sprinting form. [11:14] Aoyagi     He'll pull ahead. [11:17] Aoyagi     Give the last bit of     strength you have, Hajime! [11:21] Kaburagi     Why are you jumping ahead, Aoyagi-san? [11:24] Aoyagi     I'm blocking the wind! [11:25] Kaburagi     Why would you spend your strength     for the result line now? [11:29] Aoyagi     Idiot. I've already exhausted my Bambi Style. [11:32] Aoyagi     I don't have the strength left to sprint. [11:36] Aoyagi     When I give the signal, go! [11:38] Kaburagi     I'm not going! [11:39] Aoyagi     I thought you believed in God! [11:41] Kaburagi     What? I do, but so what? [11:44] Kaburagi     Where's God right now? [11:47] Kaburagi     There are no vending machines around. [11:55] Kaburagi     G-God's notepad... [12:00] Aoyagi     I can't believe I had this in my pocket. [12:05] (Flashback) Teshima     You should imagine all possible scenarios     and think of how to deal with them. [12:09] (Flashback) Teshima     Hakone Academy High School's     Doubashi is strong. [12:11] (Flashback) Teshima     You should simulate how     you can use Kaburagi, too. [12:17] (Flashback) Teshima     What are you writing? [12:19] (Flashback) Aoyagi     A magical note. [12:21] Aoyagi     I said it was one in ten thousand, [12:24] Aoyagi     but maybe some part of me believed     that he would follow me this far. [12:31] Kaburagi     This is... [12:36] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san. [12:37] Aoyagi     Take it! [12:39] Aoyagi     It's God's final note for you! SIGN    Sprint as hard as you can for the result line [12:43] Aoyagi     "Sprint as hard as you     can for the result line!" [12:49] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [12:51] Aoyagi     His pressure skyrocketed. [12:54] Aoyagi     I've never seen such a pure... [12:58] Aoyagi     Sprint! [13:08] Doubashi     I've won countless sprints before now. [13:11] Doubashi     I've crushed sprinters     that others called strong. [13:15] Doubashi     That's why I can feel who's a real sprinter,     who's going for the result line... [13:21] Doubashi     And how fast a sprinter someone is. [13:24] Doubashi     But I didn't even notice until now     that this orange is a sprinter. [13:30] Kaburagi     I understand, God. I'll do it. [13:33] Kaburagi     I'll use everything you taught me... [13:37] Kaburagi     ...to win this sprint! [13:41] Doubashi     It skyrocketed. What's going     on with his pressure? [13:45] Doubashi     He was acting as the third-year     Aoyagi's assistant until now. [13:48] Doubashi     But he's changed completely. [13:49] Doubashi     That's the face of a     sprinter aiming for first. [13:52] Doubashi     Only those riding on the     course could feel the tension [13:56] Doubashi     flowing through the air right now. [14:01] Doubashi     That moment when an arrow is loosed towards     its target and time seems to stand still. [14:07] Doubashi     This tense moment of silence. [14:14] Doubashi     The final sprint is starting! [14:25] Aoyagi     Go, Kaburagi! [14:28] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [14:39] Fan     They're neck and neck! [14:41] Fan     Two hundred meters left! [14:46] Fan     Sohoku High School's resting! [14:48] Doubashi     What is he doing? Does he     have strength to spare? [14:57] Doubashi     He's accelerating! [15:03] Doubashi     He took a moment to rest behind     me before accelerating again. [15:08] Doubashi     Two-stage acceleration... [15:09] Doubashi     I can't predict his movements. [15:12] Doubashi     What's his next move? [15:13] Doubashi     Is he a genius, or just an idiot? [15:18] Doubashi     But this situation itself     is advantageous to me. [15:21] Doubashi     I can ride behind him. [15:23] Doubashi     What will he do? He's not moving. [15:26] Doubashi     Is he not thinking? [15:27] Doubashi     He's a mysterious sprinter... [15:31] Doubashi     But he's an idiot! [15:33] Fan A     Hakone Academy High School's     sticking right behind him! [15:36] Fan B     He's saving his strength     by hiding from the wind! [15:38] Doubashi     I'll show you my monster sprint! [15:42] Doubashi     I don't lose! [15:43] Doubashi     I'm Hakone Academy High School! [15:45] Fan     This year's fastest sprinter     is about to be decided! [15:49] Fan     One hundred meters left! [15:51] Kaburagi     Go in, go in, go in, go in... [15:54] Doubashi     What? "Go in"? [15:56] Doubashi     Is it his gears? [15:57] Doubashi     Is he having trouble switching into top gear? [16:02] Doubashi     How unfortunate for him. [16:03] Doubashi     No wonder his acceleration was lacking. [16:06] Doubashi     Orange, I wish I could've raced you     when you weren't having bike trouble. [16:13] Fan     Doubashi's making his move!      He's jumping ahead! [16:16] Kaburagi     Go in! [16:19] (Flashback) Kaburagi     What? [16:20] (Flashback) Kaburagi     What do I think about before the finish line? [16:23] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Big gears. [16:25] (Flashback) Aoyagi     What? [16:27] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I imagine gears. [16:29] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Strangely enough, when they fit together,     it makes me feel really strong. [16:34] Kaburagi     Go in. [16:36] Kaburagi     Go in! [16:39] Kaburagi     It's in! [16:41] Kaburagi     All right! [16:42] Aoyagi     Go, Kaburagi! [16:44] Doubashi     It's not bike trouble? [16:52] Doubashi     There's 80 meters to the first result line. [16:55] Kaburagi     I... [16:55] Doubashi     I... [16:57] Both     I'll win! [16:59] Kaburagi     Pig! [17:00] Kaburagi     I got this! [17:01] Doubashi     Orange! [17:03] Doubashi     He's coming! [17:04] Both     Sprint! [17:05] Fan     They're both accelerating! [17:11] Both     I'll win! [17:13] Fan     Fifty meters left! [17:14] Doubashi     Too limited. They're too limited. [17:17] Doubashi     The world's rules are too limited. [17:20] Doubashi     Line up. [17:21] Doubashi     Don't move. [17:22] Doubashi     Don't talk back. [17:24] Doubashi     I've always been a big guy. [17:26] Doubashi     That's why I stick out. [17:29] Doubashi     But what's wrong with that? [17:30] Doubashi     I'm right. [17:32] Doubashi     But for a while, I was unsure. [17:35] Doubashi     I tried to fit within the     limited rules of society. [17:39] Doubashi     That's when Izumida-san told me to stick out. [17:45] Doubashi     He said I could ride the way I wanted. [17:49] Doubashi     He told me to take the first result! [17:52] Doubashi     How could I not give everything     I've got to win it? [17:57] Doubashi     The first result line is mine! [17:59] Doubashi     I'm bringing it home to     Hakone Academy High School, Izumida-san! [18:06] Kaburagi     Seriously? What is this     that's flowing out of me? [18:09] Kaburagi     It's so fast. [18:10] Kaburagi     It's super fast. [18:12] Kaburagi     My heart hurts, but I can't stop. [18:14] Kaburagi     It's like all the gears in     my body are locked together. [18:17] Kaburagi     From the top of my head     to the tips of my toes, [18:19] Kaburagi     they're all connected and     moving forward as one. [18:21] Kaburagi     Am I excited by this sprint? [18:24] Kaburagi     My body's telling me to pass     the guy in front of me. [18:28] Kaburagi     All the blood in my body is boiling! [18:31] Fan     Thirty meters left! [18:32] Kaburagi     Win, win, win! [18:35] Kaburagi     I'll win! [18:38] Kaburagi     It's boiling. [18:40] Aoyagi     Go, Kaburagi. [18:42] Aoyagi     You can do it! [18:48] Fan     They're neck and neck again! [18:49] Fan     It's the final sprint! [18:52] Fan 1     I thought Doubashi looked like he would     play dirty, but he's an honorable racer. [18:58] Fan 2     I've seen most of his races. [19:01] Fan 2     He talks a big game and has a huge attitude,     but he always fights head-to-head. [19:06] Fan 2     He always plays fair. [19:09] Fan 2     That's why he has so many fans! [19:11] Fan     Doubashi! [19:12] Fan     Go, Hakone Academy High School's Doubashi! [19:14] Club 1     Doubashi-senpai, you can do it! [19:16] Club 2     Pedal harder, Senpai! [19:19] Doubashi     I know. [19:21] Doubashi     I finally made it to the Inter-High. [19:24] Doubashi     If I don't win this, all the races I     won since this spring are worthless. [19:32] Kaburagi     The pig's a few centimeters ahead. [19:35] Kaburagi     Damn it! [19:36] Kaburagi     The line's right in front     of me. I can see it. [19:38] Kaburagi     My muscles are about to shatter. [19:40] Kaburagi     But I know I have to overcome this trial. [19:46] Kaburagi     Right, God? [19:48] Kaburagi     Why did Aoyagi-san's face pop into my head? [19:51] Kaburagi     I don't know. It doesn't matter. [19:54] Kaburagi     It's the final push!

[20:39] Kaburagi     It was me. [20:40] Doubashi     It wasn't you. [20:42] Kaburagi     I'd never lose to a sub like you. [20:45] Doubashi     I'm a regular, you idiot. [20:46] Fan 1     They're arguing. Who won just now? [20:50] Fan 2     Wasn't it Hakone Academy High School? [20:51] Fan 3     It looked like Sohoku High School to me.

[03:59] Ashikiba     Basshi... [04:01] Kuroda     It went just as planned, Touichirou. [04:03] Manami     I can't believe he won one     against two on the flats. [04:07] Manami     It's amazing.

[04:22] Rider 1     Let's absorb our sprinters as we     ride to the foot of the mountain. [04:25] Rider 1     We can take a break. [04:28] Izumida     Time to go to work.

[04:53] Izumida     Abs! [04:54] Rider 1     Seriously? But we're still     so far from the mountains. [04:56] Rider 3     We underestimated them. They're fast. [04:59] Rider 3     Sohoku High School's jumping ahead, too! [05:01] Teshima     But I knew they'd do this. [05:03] Teshima     Let's go as hard as we can.

[05:11] Teshima     Sorry, but you're not getting away,     Hakone Academy High School. [05:14] Teshima     You seem pretty desperate, Izumida. [05:17] Teshima     You're already trying to reduce your     competition at the start of the race. [05:20] Izumida     We're wearing double-digit tags when     we should be wearing single digits. [05:25] Izumida     Do you know what that means, Teshima-kun? [05:28] Teshima     I do. [05:30] Teshima     After all, we were wearing     triple digits last year. [05:35] Izumida     It means that by any means necessary,     we must retake the title of champions. [05:42] Izumida     I didn't participate in the first result     so I could create this situation. [05:47] Izumida     Abs! [05:48] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy High School     is accelerating even more. [05:50] Teshima     After them! [05:51] All     Yes, sir! [05:55] Izumida     The way you ride is so ordinary, Teshima-kun. [05:58] Izumida     Are you struggling? [06:00] Izumida     Isn't it because you sent two     riders to compete in the sprint? [06:03] Teshima     I'm weak. [06:06] Teshima     That's why I use my head. [06:09] Teshima     It's why I work hard. [06:10] Teshima     I have a plan. [06:12] Teshima     Go!

[09:13] Kaburagi     Koga-san, guys... [09:15] Koga     We'll be waiting for you     at the feed zone up ahead! [09:23] Kaburagi     Why? What was that, Aoyagi-san? [09:28] Kaburagi     I didn't win. [09:32] Kaburagi     They should be asking me,     "What are you doing?" [09:34] Kaburagi     "How could you lose when you were so close?" [09:37] Kaburagi     They should be rebuking me and      telling me I'm the worst, but instead... [09:43] Kaburagi     They just said they were     watching and nothing else. [09:46] Kaburagi     Their hands were so warm. [09:48] Kaburagi     Why? [09:50] Kaburagi     Koga-san, Sugimoto-san, and Danchiku... [09:55] Aoyagi     Because they're your teammates. [09:59] Aoyagi     And because they all know the pain of losing. [10:07] Koga     I know a lot about injuries. [10:12] Sugitomo     I did everything I could! [10:16] (Flashback) Danchiku     Good, Issa. [10:18] Kaburagi     Damn! [10:20] Kaburagi     Damn, damn, damn! [10:23] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san, I promise! [10:25] Kaburagi     If I end up racing against him     again at this Inter-High... [10:30] Kaburagi     I promise I'll beat him! [10:32] Aoyagi     Good. [10:33] Kaburagi     I'm riding with the team's hopes on my back. [10:37] Kaburagi     Why didn't I realize that? [10:40] Kaburagi     I'm an idiot. [10:42] Aoyagi     "Grow. Over these three days." [10:45] Aoyagi     That's what Kinjou-san     told Imaizumi last year. [10:49] Aoyagi     I'll pass on the exact same message to you. [10:53] Aoyagi     Experience pain, give everything you have... [10:57] Aoyagi     And grow straight, Kaburagi. [11:05] Izumida     Abs! [11:08] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy High School's     accelerating even more.

[11:20] Kuroda     Touichirou, you're raising the pace again? [11:24] Kuroda     Don't you feel bad for them? [11:25] Kuroda     They disappeared behind the     corner in the blink of— [11:30] Kuroda     They're keeping up. [11:32] Izumida     How persistent. [11:34] Izumida     Team Sohoku's persistent again this year. [11:37] Izumida     Naruko-kun's reactions are first-class, too. [11:40] Izumida     Yuki, remember this tenacity. [11:44] Izumida     They used it to steal the     title from us last year. [11:49] Izumida     You have a good team, Teshima-kun. [11:51] Izumida     You're worthy of being     crushed with all our might. [11:54] Izumida     Are you supporting each other? [11:57] Izumida     That's what Sohoku High School's     captain Kinjou-san said last year. [12:01] Izumida     On your team, when one man falls,     the others support him. [12:05] Izumida     A team that supports each other. [12:07] Teshima     That's right. [12:08] Teshima     I've added the sauce of faith to     that and made it in my own style. [12:13] Izumida     Are you planning on cooking something? [12:15] Teshima     Yeah, something Mediterranean. [12:17] Izumida     That sounds good. [12:19] Izumida     I'll eat it for you. [12:20] Teshima     It's super spicy. [12:22] Teshima     You'll upset your stomach. [12:27] Izumida     I see. You sound confident. [12:31] Izumida     Then let me ask you this. [12:33] Izumida     Why did your spicy team send two sprinters     against our Doubashi and lose? [12:41] Izumida     You wasted your time. [12:44] Teshima     Because one man isn't enough. [12:47] Teshima     I told you. [12:48] Teshima     We're a team that supports each other. [12:50] Teshima     We're not complete until     there's more than one. [12:53] Teshima     That's why I sent two. [12:56] Teshima     I know Kaburagi and Aoyagi believed     in each other as they fought. [13:01] Teshima     Wasted our time? Don't worry about us. [13:05] Teshima     Defeat is the first step towards victory. [13:07] Teshima     It gives rise to the next will and action. [13:10] Teshima     And we pass that will along. [13:13] Teshima     Carefully, between all of us. [13:16] Sakamichi     Teshima-san... [13:18] Izumida     That's your team, this year's Team Sohoku. [13:22] Izumida     I understand. [13:24] Izumida     Since we have the chance,     let me introduce my team. [13:28] Izumida     This year I created [13:30] Izumida     the most passionate team     Hakone Academy High School has ever seen. [13:36] Izumida     Powerfully, coolly, passionately,     we'll aim for victory. [13:41] Izumida     We're the strongest team. [13:44] Sakamichi     The strongest... [13:49] Sakamichi     Passion... [13:53] Sakamichi     There's a wall in front of us. [13:57] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy High School is a wall. [14:01] (Flashback) Makishima     Onoda. [14:04] (Flashback) Makishima     If you have one thing you're good at, [14:06] (Flashback) Makishima     and you're prevented from     doing it, what would you do? [14:10] Sakamichi     The wall in front of us... [14:14] (Flashback) Makishima     Wait? Run? [14:16] (Flashback) Makishima     Go around it? [14:17] (Flashback) Makishima     Would you become depressed? [14:25] (Flashback) Makishima     You've gotta break through, yeah? [14:28] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [14:29] Sakamichi     We have to break through, yeah. [14:32] Sakamichi     Through the giant wall of     Hakone Academy High School. [14:36] Imaizumi     You're right. We have to break through, yeah. [14:40] Teshima     Yeah. [14:42] Naruko     You're right, Onoda-kun. [14:43] Naruko     Yeah. [14:45] Sakamichi     Yeah. [14:47] Sakamichi     Wait, what? [14:49] Sakamichi     Um, did I say that out loud? [14:54] Sakamichi     Did I? [14:55] Imaizumi     Yeah. [14:56] Teshima     You did. [14:57] Sakamichi     I-I meant to think     "break through" inside my head... [15:01] Teshima     Are you serious? [15:03] Naruko     You said it really loud. [15:07] Imaizumi     Sometimes you say "yeah"     when we're in class, too. [15:10] Sakamichi     What? [15:13] (Flashback) Sakamichi     D-Don't fall asleep, yeah. [15:18] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I have to do my best, yeah. [15:27] Kuroda     Touichirou... [15:29] Kuroda     What are they? [15:31] Kuroda     They're at a disadvantage. [15:33] Kuroda     They lost the first result, too. [15:36] Kuroda     But they're overflowing with pressure. [15:39] Izumida     I thought so. [15:41] Izumida     It's the one with the glasses. [15:43] Izumida     Second-year Onoda. [15:45] Izumida     He's creating that atmosphere. [15:49] Kuroda     It doesn't look that way to me. [15:52] Kuroda     You told me to be careful,     but he doesn't feel strong. [15:56] Kuroda     Doubashi said it was just a fluke, too. [16:00] (Flashback) Doubashi     It must've been a fluke. [16:02] (Flashback) Doubashi     Otherwise, there's no way     those guys would've lost. [16:05] (Flashback) Doubashi     Right, Kuroda-san? [16:07] (Flashback) Kuroda     I get it. [16:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     You already told me that. [16:10] (Flashback) Doubashi     No, I'm not finished. [16:12] (Flashback) Doubashi     It must've been a fluke that Onoda     won the general classification. [16:18] Kuroda     That skinny kid... [16:21] Izumida     He brings out the unlikely in road races. [16:23] Izumida     The unexpected, Yuki. [16:26] Izumida     Sohoku High School's key man,     Onoda Sakamichi... [16:30] Izumida     We need to eliminate him from the     race sooner rather than later. [16:38] Sakamichi     We've caught up to the lead sprinters. [16:40] Imaizumi     Aoyagi-san! [16:41] Naruko     Kabu! [16:42] Kuroda     Doubashi! [16:45] Izumida     Good job, Doubashi. [16:47] Doubashi     Izumida-san! [16:48] Ashikiba     Basshi... [16:50] Doubashi     I beat Sohoku High School     to win the first result. [16:54] Izumida     Well done. [16:59] Naruko     Why'd you lose, Kabu? [17:02] Imaizumi     How could you lose after running     off like that, showoff? [17:04] Kaburagi     Why? [17:06] Kaburagi     Everyone else was so nice. [17:08] Naruko     Because we don't like you. [17:11] Imaizumi     You're a disappointment. [17:13] Kaburagi     Seriously? [17:15] Kaburagi     Really? Really? Really? [17:19] Aoyagi     Sorry, Junta. [17:22] Teshima     It's fine. [17:23] Teshima     The race is long. [17:24] Teshima     We can still make up for it. [17:28] Teshima     Onoda... [17:30] Sakamichi     Yes, sir? [17:31] Teshima     I have orders for you. [17:33] Sakamichi     Orders? Yes, sir. [17:36] Aoyagi     Junta? [17:38] Teshima     Stay close to us. [17:40] Sakamichi     What? [17:41] Teshima     Stay toward the front. [17:43] Sakamichi     Teshima-san? [17:46] Sakamichi     Is it because the mountains are close? [17:50] Sakamichi     Because Hakone Academy High School      will make a move? [17:52] Sakamichi     But we still have a little ways     to go before the mountains. [17:55] Teshima     They're making their move! [18:02] Kaburagi     B-But their pace isn't that fast. [18:06] Teshima     Not fast? It's the opposite, Kaburagi. [18:10] Kaburagi     The opposite? [18:11] Teshima     You haven't noticed because     we've been matching their pace. [18:16] Teshima     Hakone Academy High School has been     gradually and deliberately slowing their pace, [18:21] Teshima     so we wouldn't notice as they drew them in... [18:31] Teshima     The pack behind us! [18:33] Rider 1     There's Sohoku High School! [18:35] Rider 3     And Hakone Academy High School! [18:36] Rider 4     All right! We caught them! [18:38] Rider 1     You're not getting away! [18:39] Naruko     No way. Seriously? [18:41] Naruko     I didn't notice them come up behind us. [18:42] Imaizumi     The pack... [18:44] Imaizumi     This isn't good. [18:45] Imaizumi     They're out for blood since we passed them. [18:51] Imaizumi     Such a large gathering of     wills can breed insanity. [18:59] Teshima     We'll join the pack temporarily. [19:01] Teshima     There are advantages. [19:02] Teshima     We'll be able to rest. [19:04] Teshima     In any case, stay with the team. [19:06] Rider     Sohoku High School! [19:07] Rider     Chiba! [19:09] Teshima     But... [19:11] Teshima     Damn it. [19:12] Teshima     It's not just advantages. [19:14] Teshima     Onoda! [19:16] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [19:17] Onoda     To the front. [19:21] Rider 1     We absorbed Sohoku High School     and Hakone Academy High School! [19:23] Rider 2     All right! [19:24] Rider 3     You can't just do as you please! [19:25] Rider 4     See how strong we are? [19:30] Rider 1     We're passing through old Imaichi City     and heading towards Nikkou City. [19:33] Rider 1     We're almost at the mountains. [19:35] Rider 1     Keep it up. [19:38] Teshima     Onoda? Where's Onoda? [19:44] Sakamichi     Teshima-san... [19:45] (Flashback) Teshima     Stay close to us. [19:47] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [19:49] (Flashback) Teshima     Stay toward the front. [19:51] Sakamichi     What am I doing? [19:53] Sakamichi     I'm so far behind. [19:59] Sakamichi     Um, it's dangerous to stick too close. [20:03] Sakamichi     Could you— [20:07] Sakamichi     Y-You're too close, guys. [20:09] Sakamichi     It's dangerous while we're riding. [20:11] Sakamichi     I can't move ahead when you're so— [20:13] Ineyo     Sorry, but we're doing it deliberately. [20:17] Ineyo     We're not letting you get to the front. [20:20] Sakamichi     What? [20:25] Kaburagi     Onoda-san's been separated. [20:29] Kaburagi     He's too small. I can't see him. [20:33] Kaburagi     Do you think he's all right? [20:34] Kaburagi     Will he come up to us? [20:36] Teshima     No, that may be difficult. [20:39] Kaburagi     What? [20:42] Teshima     We're almost at the mountains. [20:45] Teshima     And he's wearing tag #1. [20:51] Kaburagi     Tag #1? [20:53] Teshima     He's last year's champion and a climber. [20:57] Teshima     The other teams will be looking out     for a #1 who won a climb. [21:02] Teshima     They'll be keeping him in check. [21:04] Teshima     Onoda will experience for the first time [21:09] Teshima     the real pressure that comes with tag #1. [21:12] Teshima     Hakone Academy High School... [21:17] Izumida     Looks like we won't have to use Yuto. [21:22] Sakamichi     Teshima-san... [21:24] Sakamichi     I can't get to the front. [23:11] Kuroda     Are you hungry? [23:14] Kuroda     Are you sure you should be     acting that way toward me? [23:24] Kuroda     Hey, what's with the change in attitude? [23:26] Kuroda     Are you an idol who's only     nice at handshake events? [23:28] Kuroda     Were you faking it? [23:32] Izumida     Yuki... [23:32] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan...

[09:43] Fan     He's in first! [09:44] Rider     Bunya, are you working hard? [09:47] Rider     I promise I'll take it this year. [09:49] Rider     I'll claim the mountain number tag. [09:55] Naruko     What do you mean we can't go     back for him, Teshima-san? [09:58] Teshima     I meant exactly what I said. [10:00] Teshima     I won't allow it. [10:02] Naruko     Why not? [10:03] Naruko     Is it because we're in the mountains? [10:04] Naruko     Because he'll make it     back at the last minute? [10:06] Naruko     I'm saying we should rescue him     because he hasn't come back. [10:10] Naruko     The other teams are getting in his way. [10:12] Naruko     Anyone would keep last     year's champion in check. [10:15] Naruko     He can't ride at his own pace. [10:17] Naruko     Kabu and I will go back and get him. [10:20] Naruko     Onoda-kun's never experienced     something like this. [10:22] Teshima     Shouting at the night's     darkness won't create light. [10:25] Teshima     All you can do is wait for dawn. [10:27] Naruko     What is that, some kind of riddle? [10:29] Kaburagi     What? A riddle? [10:31] Naruko     We're in the mountains,     and Onoda-kun's not here. [10:34] Naruko     There's no telling when     Hakone will make their move. [10:36] Naruko     And you want us to wait in silence? [10:38] Teshima     I'm telling you not to act recklessly! [10:41] Naruko     What? [10:42] Teshima     If we changed our formation,     we'd be playing into their hands. [10:46] Teshima     It may look like they're not paying attention,      but they're keeping a close eye on us. [10:50] Teshima     If our numbers decrease, they'll attack. [10:53] Teshima     We'll fall behind. [10:55] Teshima     If you and Kaburagi go back, leaving three     of us, it'll be three against six. [11:00] Teshima     They're waiting for     just that kind of situation. [11:04] Teshima     Their goal is to force our     entire team out of the race. [11:07] Naruko     What? [11:09] Kaburagi     Then we can't rescue him. [11:12] Teshima     We're at an overwhelming disadvantage. [11:15] Teshima     We have to climb this mountain without our     ace climber and two exhausted sprinters. [11:21] Teshima     We're about to start up     the hellish Irohazaka. [11:24] Teshima     And this year's Hakone Academy High School     has Kuroda, Ashikiba, Manami, and Shinkai. [11:31] Teshima     They have four climbers. [11:34] Naruko     Four. [11:36] Naruko     I noticed Shinkai's little brother     didn't race in the sprint. [11:39] Naruko     So he's a climber, huh? [11:41] Kaburagi     Then will we give up on     winning the mountain stage? [11:44] Kaburagi     Onoda-san's not back yet. [11:46] Teshima     We can't. [11:47] Teshima     If they make their move, we'll have to, as well. [11:50] Kaburagi     Why? We can just let them     do whatever they want. [11:53] Teshima     If we do that, they'll head     straight for the finish line. [11:58] Kaburagi     What? The finish line? [12:00] Aoyagi     The results of the mountain stage     affect the finish line after that. [12:04] Aoyagi     We can't let them take     the mountains so easily. [12:07] Naruko     Aoyagi-san... [12:09] Imaizumi     Aoyagi-san said two whole sentences. [12:12] Kaburagi     What are we going to do, then? [12:13] Teshima     I have orders for you. [12:16] Both     Yes, sir. [12:17] Teshima     Imaizumi... [12:18] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [12:19] Naruko     Looks like is a job for hotshot. [12:20] Teshima     You and Naruko take turns pulling the     team and prepare for the finish line. [12:26] Teshima     You're our ace. [12:27] Teshima     Without you at the finish line,     we'll lose what should be ours. [12:30] Teshima     Sorry for making you spend your energy, [12:33] Teshima     but take our exhausted sprinters     to the top of the mountain. [12:36] Kaburagi     Exhausted sprinter? [12:38] Kaburagi     He must be talking about you. [12:41] Naruko     Then who's— [12:43] Rider     Hakone's making their move! [12:45] Imaizumi     They're moving! [12:45] Naruko     Hakone Academy High School! [12:46] Teshima     Who will they send? [12:47] Izumida     It's nearly time. [12:49] Izumida     Go win the mountain stage. [12:51] Izumida     Go, Manami. [12:53] Manami     Yes, sir. [12:56] Manami     The weather's great today. [12:59] Manami     These kinds of days are the     most fun for climbing hills. [13:03] Kuroda     Hey, Manami. Don't be so relaxed. [13:06] Kuroda     The other climbers are already climbing. [13:08] Manami     Don't worry, Kuroda-san. [13:10] Manami     I'll go enjoy the hill. [13:14] Kuroda     Strangely enough,     he's managed to hone his skills. [13:17] Izumida     Go, Manami. [13:19] Izumida     Pass the climbers in front of you. [13:21] Izumida     If things go well,     take the first day's finish line. [13:25] Naruko     Are you for real? [13:26] Teshima     Yes, for real. [13:28] Teshima     Without Onoda, we don't have a choice. [13:30] Izumida     Who will Sohoku High School send? [13:33] Izumida     You can't be serious. [13:34] Izumida     You're challenging the mountains? [13:36] Izumida     Sorry to be rude, but I don't think      you have a climber's ability or instinct. [13:39] Teshima     Yeah, that's why I'll climb with hard work! [13:48] Fan     Hakone's making its move! [13:49] Fan     The first day's mountain race has begun! [13:52] Fan     It's last year's second place finisher,     second-year Manami Sangaku! [13:57] Fan     Sohoku High School's coming, too! [13:59] Fan     Is it Onoda? [14:03] Fan     What? It's not Onoda. [14:05] Fan     I'm kind of disappointed. [14:07] Fan     I came to see last year's champion race. [14:09] Fan     Is he holding back? [14:10] Fan     No, look at that. [14:11] Fan     Onoda's not with Sohoku High School? [14:13] Fan     Is he having problems? [14:15] Fan     Number 5, Teshima Junta. [14:17] Fan     He seemed pretty ordinary. [14:19] Izumida     Abs! [14:23] Izumida     Excuse me. [14:25] Izumida     I mustn't laugh. [14:28] Izumida     I feel sorry for you. [14:29] Izumida     Your captain, Teshima-kun, became emotional. [14:32] Izumida     He lost Onoda Sakamichi, the man he meant     to send, when he was swallowed by the pack. [14:36] Izumida     He felt responsible. [14:38] Izumida     He lost his #1 due to his own mistake. [14:41] Izumida     Isn't that right? [14:44] Izumida     But I can't believe he sent himself. [14:49] Izumida     Imaizumi-kun, shouldn't you have gone? [14:53] Izumida     I can tell from watching him so far. [14:55] Izumida     He's smart, but he's an unexceptional rider. [14:58] Izumida     Climb with hard work? [15:00] Izumida     No, let me be blunt. [15:02] Izumida     He doesn't stand a chance... [15:05] Izumida     ...against our Manami. [15:11] Imaizumi     Let me say my piece, too. [15:14] Imaizumi     For the past year, he's been     working hard every time I saw him. [15:23] Teshima     You think I'm reckless, Izumida? [15:25] Teshima     Would you stop me, Imaizumi? [15:28] Teshima     Would you say I don't stand a chance, Naruko? [15:32] Teshima     I don't blame them. I'm not special. [15:35] Teshima     On top of that, we're at the Inter-High. [15:37] Teshima     It's the glorious mountain stage. [15:39] Teshima     I know this isn't my job. [15:42] Teshima     But I... [15:45] (Flashback) Makishima     Teshima, you're a climber. [15:48] Teshima     I was told to climb. [15:50] Teshima     I was told to put one foot     in front of the other. [15:54] Teshima     I don't have any special abilities.     I can't leap ahead. [15:58] Teshima     Honestly, once upon a time,     I wanted to be like that. [16:02] Teshima     But I'll show you, one step at a time... [16:04] Teshima     the ordinary way I ride along the ground. [16:09] Fan     Sohoku High School caught up to     Hakone Academy High School's Manami! [16:12] Fan     It's #5! [16:13] Fan     Who's #5? [16:15] Manami     You're Sakamichi-kun's senpai. [16:17] Teshima     Hey. I saw your amazing race to the     finish last year, Manami Sangaku. [16:23] Teshima     Let's ride to the peak together,     since we have the chance. [16:28] Manami     I hate to waste an opportunity... [16:31] Manami     But I'm in a bit of a hurry. [16:33] Manami     I was told to win the mountain stage. [16:37] Teshima     His acceleration is amazing. [16:39] Teshima     It's totally different seeing it up close. [16:41] Teshima     He's fast, but... [16:45] Teshima     I'll catch him! [16:51] Teshima     Let's ride together. [16:53] Manami     Wow, you caught up. [16:55] Manami     You're better than I thought. [16:57] Teshima     I'm still your elder. [16:59] Teshima     Show some respect and ride slower. [17:02] Teshima     He's not using the wings I've heard about. [17:06] Teshima     Does that mean he can go even faster? [17:09] Manami     I still don't see the     climbers in front of us. [17:12] Teshima     We haven't even entered Irohazaka yet. [17:15] Teshima     Climbing is hard, Makishima-san.

[17:51] Teshima     We've already passed five of the     climbers who were riding ahead of us. [17:54] (Flashback) Rider     Whoa, it's Manami! [17:55] (Flashback) Rider     Sohoku High School! [17:57] Teshima     He's fast. He's horrifyingly fast. [18:00] Teshima     And he's smiling. [18:02] Teshima     I can barely keep up. [18:06] Fan     Sohoku High School's #5... [18:08] Fan     He really seemed to be struggling. SIGN    Irohazaka Map [18:12] Teshima     Please, Manami Sangaku. [18:15] Teshima     Don't ride as hard as you can yet. [18:17] Fan     They're entering Irohazaka! [18:18] Teshima     We just made it to the entrance of Irohazaka. [18:18] Fan     It's Hakone Academy High School's Manami! [18:20] Fan     There's one Sohoku High School      rider following him! [18:22] Manami     Huh? You're amazing. [18:25] Manami     You're keeping up with me,     Sakamichi-kun's senpai. [18:28] Manami     Was your name Kojima-san? [18:29] Teshima     It's Teshima. [18:31] Teshima     I'm wearing a Sohoku High School jersey, too. [18:34] Teshima     It won't be that easy to— [18:36] Manami     Do you like slopes? [18:39] Teshima     Not particularly. [18:40] Manami     Really? [18:41] Manami     Then you don't need to keep up. [18:44] Manami     You won't make any progress     doing something you don't like. [18:47] Teshima     Don't say that so casually. [18:49] Teshima     My situation doesn't allow for that. [18:53] Manami     At school, there's a class rep     who's always getting mad at me. [18:57] Manami     She wears half-moon glasses. [18:59] Manami     She told me to stop coming late and do     my homework since I'm a second-year now. [19:04] Manami     She hates bugs, [19:05] Manami     but she comes to cheer the team on at     these courses in the middle of nature. [19:10] Manami     When I asked if she likes     road races, she said... [19:12] (Flashback) Girl     Not really. [19:13] (Flashback) Girl     I don't particularly like bicycles. [19:18] Manami     Can you believe it? [19:19] Manami     But she's coming again this year. [19:22] (Flashback) Girl     Well, it's close enough     that I can take the train. [19:25] Manami     People are so strange, aren't they? [19:28] Teshima     Maybe. [19:30] Teshima     I'm wondering why I'm chasing after first-rate      Hakone Academy High School climber [19:37] Teshima     Manami Sangaku with such     an elevated heart rate. [19:39] Teshima     But I always arrive at the same answer. [19:43] Manami     Ah, found another one. [19:47] Teshima     You idiot! [19:48] Teshima     I wasn't finished talking! [19:51] Teshima     Is this Manami's full acceleration? [19:53] Teshima     He's fast. The timing's totally different. [19:56] Teshima     I can feel how much stronger he is,     but don't give up now, Teshima Junta! [20:03] Rider     Manami! [20:04] Rider     The man who inherited tag #3 from     Hakone Academy High School's Mountain God. [20:09] Rider     You won't pass me. [20:10] Rider     I'm Shizuoka Fujigawa High School's Daikanji. [20:12] Rider     My home turf is Mt. Fuji. [20:15] Rider     He's unbelievable. He passed me so easily. [20:18] Rider     Sohoku High School, too? [20:19] Rider     What? Number 5? [20:21] Rider     That's their captain, Teshima. [20:22] Rider     I thought he was their leader. [20:25] Rider     Why's he chasing after Hakone by himself? [20:28] Rider     Huh? Teshima wasn't in the race last year. [20:31] Rider     He's making his first     appearance as a third-year? [20:33] Rider     And he's chasing after him? [20:37] Rider     Hakone Academy High School's Manami? [20:39] Rider     That's impossible. There's no way. [20:42] Rider     It's reckless, no matter how you look at it. [20:49] Manami     Wow. You're amazing, Teshima-san. [20:52] Manami     You kept up with that. [20:54] Manami     But are you sure you     should be riding so fast? [20:58] Manami     Irohazaka has a long ways to go. [21:00] Manami     And there are still riders in front of us. [21:13] Manami     What? In front of me? [21:15] Teshima     Don't worry... about me. [21:18] Teshima     I'm Sohoku High School's captain,     third-year Teshima Junta. [21:22] Teshima     People laugh at me all the     time for being ordinary. [21:26] Teshima     Racing and exhausting you,     Hakone Academy High School's ace climber, [21:30] Teshima     and winning the Inter-High's     mountain stage is my job! [21:38] Manami     I'm starting to get interested. [21:48] Sakamichi     Teshima-san is on the board! [23:24] Kuroda     He's so cold when I don't have food. [23:26] Manami     Kuroda-san! [23:28] Kuroda     Oh, Manami. [23:29] Manami     Hey, it's a cat. [23:33] Manami     Wow. [23:34] Kuroda     Why? [23:35] Manami     You're so cute.

[09:46] Mizuta     As Kyoto Fushimi High School's     captain and secret ace, [09:50] Mizuta     and as a rider must stronger than I was     last year, I, Mizuta Nobuyuki, will stop you. [09:54] Mizuta     I'm the guy who stopped Hakone Academy     High School's #2, Arakita Yasutomo. [09:58] Mizuta     I am Kyoto Fushimi High School's Iron Wall! [10:00] Midousuji     Mizuta-kun! [10:03] Midousuji     All I did was instruct you to enter Phase 9. [10:07] Midousuji     Stop #1 if he tries to get ahead. [10:10] Midousuji     I didn't say you could chat with him. [10:14] Sakamichi     Midousuji-kun looked bigger for a second. [10:17] Mizuta     I-I'm not. [10:18] Mizuta     As the team's captain, I was     just telling him who we are. [10:21] Midousuji     We don't need that kind of vanity. [10:26] Midousuji     What my team needs is     perfect soldiers. True Zakus. [10:32] Midousuji     With only the will to move forward,     even if their arms and legs fall off. [10:35] Midousuji     If you're going to show off your     individuality just because it's the Inter-High, [10:40] Midousuji     I'll let you go... [10:42] Midousuji     At any time. [10:45] Mizuta     I-I get it, Midousuji-kun. [10:50] Yamaguchi     Midousuji... [10:52] (Flashback) Midousuji     We have only one goal this year. [10:56] (Flashback) Midousuji     And that's victory. [10:59] Yamaguchi     He seems bigger lately. [11:01] Yamaguchi     That pressure... [11:04] (Flashback) Midousuji     Anyone thinking too many stupid     thoughts to keep up can quit. [11:11] Yamaguchi     Eighty percent of the first-years     who joined this year quit. [11:16] Sign     Kyoto Fushimi High School     Graduation [11:17] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     There you are, Ishigaki-san. [11:21] (Flashback) Ishigaki     I graduated. [11:23] (Flashback) Ishigaki     I need to thank you, Yama. [11:26] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Thanks for your help. [11:27] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Oh, no. Thank you. [11:30] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You worked hard at the Inter-High. [11:33] (Flashback) Ishigaki     I remember how you pulled on the     flats during the second day. [11:38] (Flashback) Ishigaki     It was amazing. [11:39] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I dropped out in the mountains     after that, though. [11:43] (Flashback) Ishigaki     I'm counting on you to     carry the team next year. [11:45] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     What? [11:46] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     You should be telling     Mizuta and Midousuji that. [11:49] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I'll just be doing my     best as their assistant. [11:53] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Everyone's waiting. [11:54] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Let's go to the third-year sendoff party. [11:57] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Midousuji won't be there, though. [12:00] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Yama... [12:03] (Flashback) Ishigaki     You're a patient guy. [12:06] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     What? [12:08] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Midousuji is a talented rider. [12:10] (Flashback) Ishigaki     His legs are strong,     and his instincts are good. [12:12] (Flashback) Ishigaki     He has leadership qualities, too. [12:14] (Flashback) Ishigaki     But to win at road races, [12:18] (Flashback) Ishigaki     in the end, you need a conscience to     tell you to believe in each other. [12:22] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Yama, you have to be Midousuji's conscience. [12:26] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     What? [12:27] (Flashback) Ishigaki     When the time comes, the one     who stops Midousuji will be... [12:31] Ishigaki     ...you, Yama. [12:34] Yamaguchi     You want me to stop Midousuji? [12:36] Yamaguchi     Can I do that? [12:39] Midousuji     I know this guy can be trouble, too. [12:45] Midousuji     After all, he took the final peak last year. [12:50] Midousuji     It's been a while, Sakamichi. [12:54] Sakamichi     Midousuji-kun... [12:57] Sakamichi     Let me through! [13:00] Midousuji     Let you through? [13:02] Midousuji     Do you want to go? No matter what? [13:06] Midousuji     In that case... [13:08] Midousuji     Shall we work together? [13:11] Sakamichi     Work together? [13:12] Midousuji     You really think you'll make it to the     front when you're this far behind? [13:17] Midousuji     Even if you did catch up, you'd be exhausted. [13:21] Midousuji     You might not be able to accomplish anything. [13:25] Midousuji     But if you and I ride together, [13:30] Midousuji     we'll be half as tired. [13:33] Midousuji     I know. I'll send Yamaguchi-kun, too. [13:39] Midousuji     We'll have him pedal, too. [13:42] Midousuji     Then we'll be one-third as tired. [13:45] Midousuji     I want to go to the front. So do you. [13:49] Midousuji     Our goals are aligned. [13:51] Midousuji     What could be more convenient? [13:54] Sakamichi     I thought he would try to stop me. [13:59] Midousuji     Come on. [14:01] Midousuji     We fought each other last year. [14:05] Midousuji     There's no need to hold back.     I'll pull first. [14:09] Midousuji     Why are you thinking? Don't think so much. [14:13] Midousuji     Anyone would take the faster     train to get to their destination, [14:16] Midousuji     if the express and regular     trains cost the same. [14:21] Midousuji     You're supposed to say yes. [14:23] Midousuji     It's simple. [14:26] Sakamichi     What will happen if I go with Midousuji-kun? [14:28] Sakamichi     I'll get there faster, but is that all? [14:31] Sakamichi     Think, think. Um... [14:35] Midousuji     Let's go together. [14:38] Midousuji     Take me to the front, [14:40] Midousuji     and you can fight for the mountain     result to your heart's content. [14:45] Midousuji     I'll be cheering for you. [14:47] Midousuji     But after that, I'll be     taking the finish line. [14:53] Midousuji     Hurry up. The train's leaving. [14:56] Midousuji     Beeeeep. [14:57] Sakamichi     Think, think... [14:59] Midousuji     Please hurry if you're boarding the train. [15:02] Midousuji     Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle... [15:03] Sakamichi     Think, think. [15:06] (Flashback) Teshima     You'll have to decide your     own path for yourself. [15:10] (Flashback) Teshima     If you're ever unsure, do this. [15:14] (Flashback) Teshima     Consider all your options, and pick     the first one that comes to mind. [15:20] Sakamichi     Sorry, but I'll pass. [15:23] Sakamichi     I'll reach the front on my own. [15:25] Sakamichi     Sorry for rejecting your offer, Midousuji-kun! [15:29] Yamaguchi     He said no under these circumstances. [15:32] Midousuji     Huh... [15:34] Midousuji     Apparently, he's not an idiot. [15:36] Sakamichi     So let me through! [15:38] Midousuji     I can't do that, but if you can     break away from him, you can go. [15:48] Midousuji     Yamaguchi-kun. [15:50] Yamaguchi     What? [15:51] Midousuji     You're up. [15:54] Sakamichi     This guy... [15:56] Sakamichi     I just have to break away from this guy. [15:58] Midousuji     You can handle Phase 11, can't you? [16:02] Midousuji     Go stop #1. [16:04] Yamaguchi     What? [16:06] Mizuta     You're not sending me, Midousuji-kun? [16:08] Midousuji     You can do it if you throw away the     unnecessary things you're dearly holding onto. [16:15] Ishigaki     You have to be Midousuji's conscience. [16:21] Sakamichi     Princess! [16:22] Midousuji     Hurry up, Yamaguchi-kun. [16:29] Yamaguchi     He's fast. [16:33] Yamagushi     Why am I chasing after #1 in the mountains? [16:37] Yamaguchi     I'm... [16:38] Yamaguchi     I'm a sprinter, Midousuji. [16:45] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Be his conscience. [16:47] Yamaguchi     Why does everyone always make     such unreasonable demands of me? [16:53] Yamaguchi     I can't do it. [16:54] Yamaguchi     I just used up all my strength. [16:58] Yamaguchi     I can't stop him. I... [17:02] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Are you a first-year? [17:04] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Still deciding which club to join? [17:05] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Yeah. I used to play basketball, [17:08] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     but I thought I'd do something     different in high school. [17:10] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Why don't you try biking? [17:12] (Flashback) Ishigaki     We've got a good team,     and we win regularly in Kyoto. [17:16] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I can't join a club that's too strong. [17:18] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I could never be the best, and I don't     like being the center of attention. [17:23] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Bike riding is a team sport. [17:26] (Flashback) Ishigaki     It's a sport of people who     work behind the scenes. [17:29] Yamaguchi     A team sport... [17:32] (Flashback) Ishigaki     That's it. Hold that position. [17:35] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Yes, sir. [17:36] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Hold that position until you     make it through the corner. [17:39] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Yes, sir. [17:40] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Thanks, Yama. [17:42] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Thanks to you, I won. [17:44] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Yes, sir. [17:46] Yamaguchi     I thought I was happy living in the shadows. [17:51] Yamaguchi     Honestly, I was uncertain when I was     chosen to be on the Inter-High team. [17:55] Yamaguchi     I can't handle fighting on the     front lines of the Inter-High. [18:11] Yamaguchi     Wa... [18:13] Yamaguchi     Wait! [18:21] Yamaguchi     How did he reject Midousuji like that? [18:25] Yamaguchi     He seems like a pushover. He's so small. [18:29] Yamaguchi     How can he climb like that? [18:32] Yamaguchi     He smells like a man of the shadows, like me. [18:36] Yamaguchi     Is he not? [18:40] Yamaguchi     Who waits when their opponents     tell them to wait? [18:45] Yamaguchi     Onoda must be a good guy. [18:48] Yamaguchi     You were right to reject Midousuji's offer. [18:53] Yamaguchi     If you'd worked together with Midousuji,     Sohoku High School would've lost. [19:00] Sakamichi     Really? [19:02] Yamaguchi     You have good instincts. [19:04] Sakamichi     Th-Thank you, um... [19:07] Yamaguchi     I'm a third-year, Yama. [19:10] Sakamichi     Yama-san... [19:12] Sakamichi     Excuse me! [19:16] Yamaguchi     What a strange guy. [19:18] Yamaguchi     "He has a strange aura about him." [19:21] Yamaguchi     Ishigaki-san said the same thing. [19:24] Yamaguchi     An aura different from Midousuji's. [19:34] Kaburagi     Onoda-san! [19:35] Sakamichi     Sorry I'm late! [19:38] Naruko     You idiot! How long were     you gonna make us wait? [19:41] Sakamichi     Sorry. [19:43] Kaburagi     You made it through that     pack? That's amazing. [19:46] Aoyagi     Good work catching up. Rest in the back. [19:50] Sakamichi     Um, I-I... [19:54] Kuroda     Touichirou... [19:55] Kuroda     Trouble caught up. [19:57] Yuto     Want me to keep him in check? [19:59] Izumida     No, don't bother. [20:01] Izumida     There's no need to waste our energy. [20:05] Imaizumi     I'm directing the team right now. [20:09] Imaizumi     This is what Teshima-san told us. [20:12] (Flashback) Teshima     If Onoda makes it through the     blockade and catches up to the team, [20:15] (Flashback) Teshima     send him to the front if he's less     than three and a half minutes behind. [20:19] (Flashback) Teshima     Onoda's strong enough to     catch up to the front. [20:21] (Flashback) Teshima     But if it's more than that... [20:25] Imaizumi     You can't catch up to the front. [20:27] Imaizumi     It's already been four and     a half. It's been too long. [20:31] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [20:33] Imaizumi     No matter how hard you pedal, you may not     even catch a glimpse of Teshima-san's back. [20:37] Imaizumi     It's smarter for you to rest     your legs with the team. [20:42] Imaizumi     Do you still want to go? [20:44] Sakamichi     Yeah. [20:46] Imaizumi     Sheesh. You're unbelievable. [20:49] Sakamichi     Sorry. [20:51] Imaizumi     Take this. [20:53] Imaizumi     When Teshima-san left, he left     one behind to lighten his load. [20:58] Imaizumi     He's probably parched. [21:01] Naruko     Tell him we're rooting for him. [21:04] Aoyagi     Onoda... [21:06] Aoyagi     Junta is fighting. [21:09] Aoyagi     Take our hopes. [21:13] Aoyagi     Take them to him, Sakamichi! [21:17] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [22:54] Kotori     I'm going to be late. [22:56] Mage     Unbelievable. You're a     second-year starting today. [22:59] Mage     You haven't matured at all, Kotori-sama. [23:02] Kotori     Yeah, but... [23:04] Kotori     When I think about seeing     Arimaru-kun again... [23:11] Kotaro     You're as defenseless as ever, Kotori. [23:14] Kotori     Sheesh. [23:15] Kotori     You're so mean, Kotaro-kun. [23:17] Kotaro     I'll take care of you from now on. [23:23] Kotori     Why is my heart pounding? [23:26] Song     I've always kept (spin, spin) [23:28] Song     These feelings secret (spin, spin) [23:31] Song     Be my princess forever (ta-tum-tum-tum) [23:34] Imaizumi     What?

SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    RIDE.24 The Ride of Weeds [02:11] Teshima     Manami Sangaku. [02:12] Teshima     Racing you and taking the first day's      mountain number tag is my job! [02:20] Manami     I'm starting to get interested. [02:23] Teshima     Without Onoda, the only     climber we could send was me. [02:28] Teshima     So... [02:30] Teshima     I'll take the mountain number tag! [02:36] Fans     You can do it! [02:38] Fan     Sohoku High School's in front! [02:39] Fan     On the winding roads of Irohazaka?     That's amazing! [02:42] Fan     But Hakone Academy High School's     rider seems more composed. [02:45] Fan     Is he smiling? [02:46] Fan     He's letting #5 get in front of him! [02:49] Manami     Are you okay, Teshima-san? [02:51] Manami     Are you sure you're not pushing yourself     too hard by keeping up that high pace? [02:54] Teshima     I am. [02:56] Teshima     But I'm racing against you. [02:58] Teshima     It's worth it. [03:00] Manami     I'm honored. [03:05] Teshima     He's fast. He caught up in a second. [03:06] Manami     Mind if I ride alongside you? [03:08] Teshima     What are we doing, sitting on a park bench? [03:10] Teshima     Want to switch places? [03:11] Teshima     We just ran into a headwind. [03:14] Manami     No, we'll keep going like this. [03:17] Manami     Once we make it through the next turn,     I'll move to the front. [03:23] Manami     After all, the wind will change directions. [03:25] Teshima     A tailwind? [03:28] Teshima     Crap! [03:29] Teshima     The wind direction changes on     each turn on a zigzagging road. [03:33] Teshima     Manami Sangaku's planning to use his wings. [03:40] Manami     The wind's coming. [03:44] Teshima     If I don't get ahead of     him now, he'll catch up. [03:48] Teshima     If he does... [03:56] Manami     Coming through. [04:02] Manami     I feel alive. [04:05] Manami     It feels awesome. [04:12] Teshima     If he does... [04:15] Koga     Teshima went? [04:17] Koga     What happened to Onoda? [04:18] Miki     Hakone Academy High School sent Manami-kun. [04:21] Koga     Manami? [04:23] Aya     Is he strong? [04:24] Aya     Is that Manami guy bad news? [04:26] Miki     He's the climber we fought     at the finish line last year. [04:30] Aya     Yikes. That guy? [04:32] Aya     But Teshima-san's strong, too, right? [04:34] Aya     He's the captain. [04:37] Koga     Is that role too heavy for you, Teshima? [04:41] Aya     Hey, why isn't anyone talking? [04:44] Aya     Did you guys give up? [04:47] Sugimoto     I haven't given up. [04:49] Sugimoto     M-Manami's just a little fast! [04:53] Sugimoto     Who cares about Hakone? [04:54] Sugimoto     We've practiced a lot, too. [04:57] Danchiku     Sugimoto-san... [04:59] Sugimoto     Teshima-san always states the obvious. [05:03] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't apply any unnecessary     force to your pedals. [05:05] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Yes, sir. I know. [05:08] (Flashback) Teshima     Sugimoto, you'll get there faster if     you climb stairs one step at a time. [05:13] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I saw that on TV. [05:15] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Your muscles last longer     than if you skip steps. [05:20] Sugimoto     I know. It's obvious. [05:22] Sugimoto     Even I know. [05:24] Sugimoto     But he's the kind of person who puts [05:27] Sugimoto     each and every one of those     obvious facts into practice. [05:34] Teshima     Don't let your pedaling waver     when you're struggling. [05:38] Teshima     I'm an ordinary guy. [05:40] Teshima     I don't have power. I don't     have flashes of inspiration. [05:43] Teshima     That's why I have to convert all     of my strength into forward thrust. [05:49] Teshima     The fundamentals are important. [05:50] Teshima     Everything stands on them. [05:53] Teshima     It would suck if he caught up to me. [05:57] Teshima     Actually, he already passed me. [06:00] Teshima     Catching up to him again will be hard. [06:10] Teshima     Wait, Manami. [06:13] Teshima     What's the hurry? [06:16] Manami     I thought your spirit broke     when I passed you earlier. [06:19] Manami     You don't have to force yourself to keep up. [06:22] Teshima     It's just like your wings. [06:25] Teshima     Pushing myself too hard     is my strongest technique. [06:29] Manami     Your body is screaming. [06:34] Teshima     Want to try me? [06:39] Manami     Are your hands numb? [06:42] Teshima     They're trembling with excitement. [06:44] Manami     That's promising. [06:45] Manami     I guess I'll start, too... [06:48] Manami     Going all out. [06:54] Teshima     Don't lose it. [06:57] Teshima     Don't lose focus, [07:01] Teshima     Teshima Junta! [07:04] Manami     Go! [07:08] Teshima     So fast! [07:12] Teshima     It's hard. [07:13] Teshima     I feel like all my pores are     about to start bleeding. [07:16] Teshima     Endure it. Endure it. [07:19] Teshima     He's trying to break away from me. [07:23] Teshima     If he breaks away now, it's over. [07:26] Teshima     Endure it. [07:28] Teshima     He's fast. Manami's fast. [07:32] Teshima     Is this the full strength of     Hakone Academy High School's ace climber? [07:40] Teshima     Come to think of it, I made that shot into     the trash can during class the other day. [07:48] Teshima     My neighbor Hirata thought it was great. [07:52] Teshima     I think Hirata said she has a sister. [07:56] (Flashback) Teshima     Whew. [07:58] (Flashback) Teshima     Nothing beats the moment you fall     into bed after finishing practice, [08:01] (Flashback) Teshima     taking a bath, and eating dinner. [08:04] (Flashback) Teshima     Since I don't have any assignments tonight,     I might fall asleep like this. [08:08] (Flashback) Teshima     Someone turn out the lights. [08:11] (Flashback) Teshima     My bed feels good. [08:13] (Flashback) Teshima     I don't have to move. [08:15] (Flashback) Teshima     I can forget all my pain. [08:19] Teshima     Beds are the best. [08:30] Teshima     What are you doing, Teshima Junta? [08:32] Teshima     You're in the middle of a race! [08:35] Fan     He pushed himself back up     when he started to fall. [08:37] Fan     He might have lost     consciousness for a second. [08:40] Fan     What? [08:41] Fan     Your brain turns off under     brutal circumstances. [08:45] Teshima     I told you not to lose focus! [08:48] Teshima     I can barely keep up. I'm at my limit. [08:52] Manami     You seem to be struggling. [08:53] Manami     You're lucky, Teshima-san. [08:55] Manami     This is enough to make you feel alive. [08:58] Teshima     I only feel like I'm dead, [09:02] Teshima     Manami! [09:04] Manami     Isn't this starting to get fun, Teshima-san? [09:10] Teshima     Is your focus heightened, too, Manami? [09:14] Manami     It is. [09:15] Manami     I wasn't expecting today's     mountains to be this much fun. [09:20] Manami     You're at your limit, but you're keeping up. [09:23] Manami     You're not flashy. [09:25] Manami     You're not strong. [09:26] Teshima     Leave me alone. [09:28] Manami     Come to think of it... [09:29] (Flashback) Teshima     But I always arrive at the same answer. [09:33] Manami     What's your "one answer"? [09:36] Teshima     You were listening? [09:37] Manami     Is it because you're the captain? [09:39] Manami     Because you're a third-year? [09:41] Teshima     You accelerated before     I was finished talking. [09:44] Manami     I wasn't interested then. [09:47] Manami     Is it because you wear a     single-digit number tag? [09:51] Teshima     His question was so direct, I laughed. [09:54] Teshima     No. It's simpler than that. [10:00] Teshima     I... [10:02] Teshima     I love bikes. [10:05] Teshima     They always take you to your destination.     That's why I ride. [10:10] Teshima     I chase. I pedal. [10:12] Teshima     I help. [10:14] Teshima     I believe in miracles. [10:16] Teshima     After I started racing, I thought     about quitting, since I'd never place first. [10:21] Teshima     But I met a guy named Aoyagi and     realized that wasn't everything. [10:28] Teshima     I met the bespectacled Onoda,     the giant Imaizumi, and the red Naruko. [10:34] Teshima     Seeing them and a bunch of others ride,     I learned something. [10:39] Teshima     Even if the going gets rough and you     want to quit, you have to stay strong. [10:44] Teshima     They're all connected through bicycles. [10:51] Teshima     I think Onoda said something similar. [10:54] Manami     Is your plan to have Sakamichi-kun come? [10:57] Manami     Do you think you can win     the mountains like that? [11:04] Teshima     Wouldn't it be all right if     even I placed first, just once? [11:12] Teshima     It's what I secretly think. [11:20] Kuroda     He left right away. [11:22] Ashikiba     Sohoku High School's Onoda... [11:24] Doubashi     Despite being small,     his pressure was amazing. [11:28] Izumida     They're wasting their time. [11:29] Izumida     He's too far behind. Even if     he goes, he can't catch up. [11:34] Izumida     The race will come down to those two... [11:36] Izumida     Manami and Teshima-kun. [11:41] Izumida     If it's actually a race, that is. [11:46] Izumida     That's it. [11:48] Izumida     He went to save Teshima,     who's surely about to drop out. [11:53] Izumida     So he's just the rescue team? [11:56] Fan     You can do it! [11:59] Manami     It's amazing that you're still keeping up. [12:02] Manami     Just how stubborn are you? [12:04] Teshima     I'll stick with you until     the mountain result line. [12:09] Teshima     That's why I'm riding. [12:13] Manami     There's three kilometers left to the line. [12:15] Manami     It doesn't look like Sakamichi-kun is coming. [12:19] Teshima     Don't worry. [12:21] Teshima     I gave up hope that he would     at the four kilometer mark. [12:24] Manami     So you're challenging me to     a one-on-one mountain race. [12:28] Teshima     That's what I've been saying. [12:31] Manami     Then it's on. [12:33] Manami     The end of Irohazaka lies     three kilometers ahead [12:36] Manami     at the mountain result line of the     Akechidaira observation platform. [12:41] Teshima     If you're unhappy with your opponent,     you'd better say so now. [12:45] Teshima     Even I'd be depressed if you     told me after this is over. [12:49] Manami     No, I said plenty when we started. [12:52] Manami     But now I feel differently. [12:55] Manami     This is the first time I've     encountered someone like you. [12:59] Manami     Most people give up after     falling behind a couple times. [13:03] Manami     But you don't give up, no matter     how many times I trample you. [13:06] Manami     You're like a summer weed. [13:09] Teshima     That's not a compliment. [13:10] Manami     That's why I feel this way. [13:13] Manami     If I don't ride as hard     as I can, it'd be a waste. [13:18] Teshima     What? [13:20] Manami     Go! [13:22] Fan     He shifted up a gear on a climb! [13:24] Fan     He's so fast! [13:25] Fan     Sohoku High School's #5 is keeping up! [13:29] Fan     I can't believe he accelerated     on the steep part of Irohazaka. [13:33] Fan     Manami is a natural climber, too. [13:37] Fan     But isn't that guy keeping up     with him the most amazing of all? [13:44] Kaburagi     They should be coming up on     the mountain result line. [13:47] Kaburagi     Anyway, I was surprised     when Teshima-san left. [13:51] Kaburagi     He's up against their mountain ace.     He doesn't stand a chance. [13:56] Kaburagi     He always talks about how weak he is. [13:58] Kaburagi     I thought Imaizumi-san should've gone, too. [14:03] Aoyagi     You don't understand, Kaburagi. [14:07] Aoyagi     Junta left because he knows he's weak. [14:11] Kaburagi     What? [14:13] Aoyagi     If Imaizumi had gone, Ashikiba would've gone. [14:16] Aoyagi     If Naruko had gone,     Kuroda would've gone after him. [14:20] Aoyagi     But Junta is different. [14:22] Aoyagi     He knew Hakone Academy High School     wouldn't send someone after him, [14:24] Aoyagi     because they believe Manami     would be enough to stop him. [14:28] Kaburagi     It was on purpose? [14:29] Kaburagi     That was on purpose? [14:31] Kaburagi     Does that mean this was all     part of Teshima-san's plan? [14:35] Kaburagi     Seriously? Teshima-san is amazing. [14:38] Kaburagi     He might have some plan for     beating Manami-san, too. [14:44] Aoyagi     A plan? [14:46] Aoyagi     Probably not. [14:50] Teshima     Manami! [14:55] Teshima     I'm struggling so much,     I can't raise my head. [14:58] Teshima     My hands are full trying     to follow his wheels. [15:02] Teshima     Don't fall behind.     Please don't fall behind, wheels. [15:06] Teshima     If I don't stay right on the line,     I won't stand a chance. [15:10] Teshima     I don't care if my legs fall apart. [15:12] Teshima     I don't care if I lose consciousness. [15:15] Teshima     Three kilometers left. [15:17] Teshima     Until I cross the line,     let my body keep moving! [15:25] Teshima     But the calmer side of me says this. [15:31] Teshima     "Teshima Junta, three years ago,     you quit road racing." [15:37] Teshima     "Now you're fighting for first in the     glorious mountain stage of the Inter-High." [15:44] Teshima     Surely it's all right     for a crownless man like me [15:50] Teshima     to win just once. [15:54] Manami     It's strange, Teshima-san. [15:56] Manami     Your riding has been sharper since you     realized Sakamichi-kun isn't coming. [16:02] Teshima     I wonder why. [16:04] Teshima     My body does feel lighter. [16:08] Teshima     Maybe it's because     I realized I have to do it. [16:12] Teshima     Maybe it's because I'm     carrying my teammates' hopes. [16:15] Manami     You said you gave up hope earlier,     but you never had hope. [16:20] Teshima     He might be right. I don't have hope. [16:24] Teshima     All I can do is move forward one step      at a time with my own two legs. [16:28] Teshima     It's what I've always done. [16:32] Fan     You can do it! [16:33] Teshima     In a few kilometers,     my efforts will be rewarded. [16:38] Teshima     I may be able to experience that moment. [16:44] Manami     Road racing really is fun.     Right, Teshima-san? [16:48] Teshima     Yeah, you're right. [16:50] Teshima     It's fun, Manami. [16:54] Manami     That's the first time you agreed with me. [16:56] Teshima     Of course riding a bike is fun! [17:01] Fan     It's Yamagata Mogami High School,     who was riding alone! [17:04] Fan     They passed the favorite to win     the mountains, Kawahara Gunpei! [17:10] Fan     Now Hakone Academy High School and     Sohoku High School are racing for first! [17:14] Manami     There's nothing to get in our     way anymore, Teshima-san. [17:17] Teshima     Was he planning to pass him here? [17:22] Kawahara     Were they going for the result? [17:23] Kawahara     But Sohoku High School's #5 was behind him. [17:28] Kawahara     I thought Sohoku High School's ace was     the guy I told Bunya to keep in check. [17:33] Kawahara     Number 5 flew under my radar. [17:37] Kawahara     I meant to take the first day's mountain     result by riding ahead of the others. [17:42] Kawahara     But I couldn't react. [17:45] Kawahara     Normally, I should've been able to follow     them and fight until the finish line. [17:49] Kawahara     I'm sorry, Bunya. [17:51] Kawahara     You did your job, too. [17:55] Kawahara     But there are demons at the Inter-High. [18:00] Kawahara     Demons who turn birds flying     in the sky into pebbles. [18:04] Kawahara     And demons who turn     ordinary pebbles into birds. [18:09] Kawahara     The Inter-High is a special race. [18:12] Kawahara     Will, responsibility, tension,     and purpose mix together. [18:17] Kawahara     You can't move like you normally do here. [18:22] Kawahara     With the second type of demon on     your side, you have nothing to fear. [18:28] Kawahara     Could it be that #5 is... [18:36] Teshima     A chance, a chance... [18:39] Teshima     Search for a chance. [18:41] Teshima     Fifteen hundred meters left. [18:45] Teshima     I can't win if I keep riding behind Manami. [18:48] Teshima     I have to pass him somewhere. [18:51] Teshima     On the way? [18:53] Teshima     Before the finish line? Now? [18:55] Teshima     I can't miss the tiniest of mistakes. [18:59] Teshima     Damn it! [19:02] Teshima     Whoa! [19:04] Teshima     Damn it, I fell behind! [19:07] Teshima     There's no way he'd make a mistake. [19:09] Teshima     If anyone makes one, it'll be me. [19:11] Teshima     So what should I do? [19:14] Teshima     Twelve hundred meters left... [19:16] Manami     You're keeping up.     You're keeping up, Teshima-san! [19:20] Manami     I keep shifting up. [19:22] Teshima     He shifted up again? [19:24] Teshima     This isn't an opportunity, it's a disaster. [19:26] Teshima     Is he trying to kill me? [19:32] Teshima     One kilometer left! [19:34] Teshima     The line... [19:35] Manami     is close! [19:37] Teshima     Find an opportunity. [19:40] Teshima     One kilometer left... [19:41] Teshima     Just one kilometer in a lifetime. [19:45] Teshima     I'll take first. [19:47] Teshima     It's right in front of me! [19:53] Teshima     My legs are at their limit. [19:57] Teshima     My hands are losing their grip. [19:59] Teshima     But they've been that way for a while. [20:02] Teshima     Believe in yourself! [20:05] Teshima     In miracles! [20:06] Fan     #5 is amazing! [20:08] Fan     He's giving Manami a run for his money! [20:10] Fans     Teshima! [20:10] Fan     I kind of like all-out, reckless riders like him! [20:12] Fans     Teshima!

[20:24] Teshima     I can hear my name being     called at the Inter-High. [20:29] Teshima     Is this a miracle? [20:31] Teshima     I feel stronger. [20:34] Fan     You're almost at the end of Irohazaka! [21:00] Manami     Crap! My chain! [21:02] Teshima     Manami's losing speed? [21:04] Teshima     What happened? [21:06] Teshima     In any case... [21:07] Teshima     Now's my chance! [21:11] Fan     Sohoku High School passed him! [21:12] Fan     There's 400 meters left! [22:53] Teshima     I can't keep going. [22:54] Teshima     I can't move another millimeter. [22:56] Teshima     I'm going to sleep here. [22:58] Koga     What about dinner? [22:59] Teshima     I'm not hungry. [23:01] Teshima     We ordinary men have reached their limit. [23:03] Teshima     Good night. [23:05] Aoyagi     Junta, you completed a thousand     kilometers at this training camp. [23:09] Aoyagi     You're not ordinary anymore. [23:11] Teshima     Aoyagi... [23:13] Koga     Yeah. If you're ordinary,     what does that make me? [23:17] Koga     You're a proper captain now. [23:20] Koga     I'm counting on you at the Inter-High. [23:22] Teshima     Kimitaka... [23:25] Koga     Okay, time for dinner! [23:27] Aoyagi     We'll start without you, Junta!

[00:33] Teshima     No, it doesn't matter. [00:34] Teshima     I should be looking forward now. [00:35] Teshima     It's in front of me... [00:36] Teshima     It's right in front of me!

[03:24] Fan 9     It's his chain. His chain came loose. [03:26] Fan 10     What happens if your chain     comes off during a race? [03:29] Fan 11     There's nothing you can do.

[09:26] Miki     That's why the winner shines     beyond the shadow of a doubt. [09:33] Announce     Hakone Academy High School's     Manami Sangaku has taken the mountains! [09:47] Announce     The first day of the Inter-High     and Irohazaka has been won [09:50] Announce     by Hakone Academy High School! [09:51] Announce     Number 13 is the new Mountain God! [09:55] Announce     Manami Sangaku! He's shouting! [09:59] Hakogaku A     All right! [10:00] Hakogaku B     Yeah! [10:02] Hakogaku C     Manami, good job! [10:04] Hakogaku D     Manami-san! [10:05] Hakogaku C     We're the strongest! [10:07] Hakogaku E     I've never seen Manami     shout after he's won before. [10:15] Manami     I did it, Toudou-san. [10:19] Manami     I overcame it. [10:30] Teshima     I didn't make it. [10:33] Teshima     I gave everything I had to be first. [10:36] Teshima     We were tied just a few meters     before the finish line. [10:41] Teshima     We were neck and neck, but he got past me. [10:44] Teshima     When he'd already given everything     he had, he still had more to give. [10:51] Teshima     He's amazing. He must be a prodigy. [10:55] Teshima     Manami's amazing. [10:57] Teshima     Hard work is useless     against someone like him. [11:04] Manami     Teshima-san... [11:12] Manami     Thank you. [11:16] Manami     For waiting. [11:21] Teshima     I told you. [11:23] Teshima     I was just enjoying my tea time. [11:28] Teshima     I didn't wait for you. [11:30] Teshima     You don't need to thank me. [11:34] Teshima     I just... [11:35] Teshima     I want everyone who takes cycling seriously... [11:40] Teshima     to be equal while they're riding. [11:44] Teshima     That thought made me hit the brakes. [11:48] Teshima     But holding onto ideals like equality     are why everyone calls me ordinary. [11:54] Manami     Teshima-san! [11:56] Manami     You were strong. [11:58] Manami     You kept up with my attacks     countless times at the Inter-High. [12:03] Manami     Normally, a person wouldn't     wait at 300 meters. [12:06] Manami     They'd say it could be fixed quickly.     That it was bad luck. [12:11] Manami     That I was just unlucky. [12:14] Manami     Everyone wants to win. [12:16] Manami     The climber's medal was     right in front of you. [12:19] Manami     But you stopped. [12:20] Manami     A man who does things others can't is strong. [12:29] Teshima     Don't flatter me. [12:32] Teshima     I'm weak. [12:37] Koga     Teshima was a close second? [12:39] Koga     Is it true? [12:40] Miki     Yes, he was milliseconds behind. [12:44] Danchiku     Isn't this amazing? [12:47] Aya     See? I told you he could do it. [12:50] Aya     Second blows, though. [12:52] Koga     Teshima, you... [12:54] Toji     Wow. [12:56] Danchiku     What happened? [12:58] Miki     The report doesn't say exactly. [13:00] Miki     But it says #13 had mechanical problems. [13:03] Koga     Manami did? [13:05] Danchiku     Is that when he caught up? [13:07] Danchiku     Had he fallen behind? [13:09] Sugimoto     I don't think so, Danchiku. [13:12] Danchiku     What? [13:13] Sugimoto     I don't know how the mechanical     issues affected the race, [13:17] Sugimoto     but I think Teshima-san worked hard     to stick to Manami the whole time. SIGN    Mountain Results SIGN    Manami Sangaku SIGN    Kanagawa Hakone Academy High School SIGN    Teshima Junta SIGN    Chiba Sohoku High School [13:39] Kuroda     That was really close, though. [13:40] Izumida     He's the man who makes it happen. [13:43] Izumida     Well done, Manami. [13:45] Izumida     No, perhaps I should be     praising the other man instead. [13:48] Izumida     I'm impressed Teshima-kun was able     to keep up with his ordinary riding. [13:54] Izumida     Manami seems to have enjoyed himself. [13:56] Izumida     But that doesn't change the results. [13:59] Izumida     Too bad, Sohoku High School. [14:01] Izumida     Your leader lost. [14:04] Imaizumi     Teshima-san... [14:05] Naruko     Teshima-san... [14:06] Kaburagi     Teshima-san... [14:08] All     Teshima-san is amazing! [14:10] Aoyagi     Junta, you're... [14:12] Kaburagi     That's amazing. Honestly, I'm on fire now. [14:15] Kaburagi     I'm trembling with excitement. [14:17] Kaburagi     Teshima-san, I'm sorry for making fun of you. [14:21] Kaburagi     I wish I could go right now     and race to the finish line. [14:25] Aoyagi     You'd better not. [14:28] Naruko     So the permed one did it. [14:31] Naruko     Our leader is... [14:32] Imaizumi     Yeah. A hard worker who     does what he says he'll do. [14:36] Imaizumi     He's Teshima Junta. [14:44] Fan 31     Watch out! [14:45] Fan 32     #5 is falling! [14:46] Manami     Teshima-san? [14:49] Teshima     I can finally lie down. [14:52] Teshima     I seriously gave everything. [14:55] Teshima     I probably won't be able to     get up again if I lie down now. [14:59] Teshima     Sorry, Imaizumi and Naruko. [15:04] Teshima     The rest is up to you, Aoyagi. [15:07] Teshima     Dropping out after the first day... [15:10] Teshima     I really am weak. [15:12] Teshima     I've failed as their captain. [15:14] Teshima     But sorry, I can't move anymore. [15:19] Teshima     It'll be just the five of you. [15:22] Teshima     Sorry, Sohoku High School. [15:27] Sakamichi     Teshima-san! [15:29] Fan 34     It's another Sohoku rider! [15:30] Sakamichi     Gotta make it! [15:47] Teshima     It's you, Onoda. [15:51] Sakamichi     I made it. [15:52] Fan B     It's #1! [15:53] Sakamichi     I pedaled as hard as I could when I saw you. [15:53] Fan C     Sohoku High School's #1 came! [15:56] Sakamichi     I'm glad I made it. [15:58] Teshima     What are you doing here? [16:03] Sakamichi     I got your message. [16:06] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun gave me permission     to come support you. [16:14] Sakamichi     And... [16:18] Sakamichi     To give you these water bottles. [16:21] Sakamichi     They thought you'd be parched. [16:23] Sakamichi     They're from Imaizumi-kun and Naruko-kun. [16:26] Teshima     I'm standing. [16:29] Teshima     Does that mean I can keep going? [16:33] Teshima     A team that supports each other... [16:35] Teshima     Yes, that's the kind of team     Sohoku High School is. [16:40] Teshima     Support, huh? [16:47] Teshima     Thanks for the help, Onoda. [16:55] Teshima     Let's ride a little longer. [16:57] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [17:09] Komari     Hakone Academy High School     took the mountains. [17:12] Komari     Sohoku High School came in second and third. [17:16] Midousuji     So you caught up, Sakamichi. [17:20] Komari     The guys in front of us are     probably increasing their pace. [17:26] Midousuji     In that case, shall we     go as well, Komari-kun? [17:30] Komari     Yes. [17:32] Fan 35     Hakone Academy High School     just took the mountains. [17:35] Fan 36     Hakone Academy High School's so strong. [17:42] Fan 37     It's Hakone Academy High School! [17:43] Fan 35     They've increased their pace! [17:45] Fan 36     Sohoku High School's keeping up! [17:48] Izumida     Doubashi took the flats.     Manami took the mountains. [17:53] Izumida     All that's left is the finish line. [17:58] Yuto     Should we go a little faster? [18:01] Izumida     Not too fast, Yuto. [18:03] Izumida     All we have to do now is strike fear     in the hearts of Sohoku High School. [18:06] Kuroda     There's still more than ten     kilometers to the finish line. [18:09] Yuto     Roger that. [18:14] Imaizumi     I see. They're fast, but... [18:18] Imaizumi     Not too fast. [18:20] Naruko     Just so-so. [18:22] Kaburagi     They're trying to pull ahead     of us, but they can't. [18:27] Aoyagi     Yeah. [18:28] Imaizumi     Onoda overcame a hopeless time     difference and caught up to the front. [18:33] Imaizumi     And most importantly... [18:35] Imaizumi     He received Teshima-san's     passionate vibrations. [18:38] Imaizumi     We never give up. [18:41] Imaizumi     Let's go, Sohoku High School! [18:43] All     Yeah!

[10:48] Naruko     Once we make it through the     tunnel and enter the downhill, [10:50] Naruko     we'll catch up in the blink of an eye! [10:53] Naruko     My heart is pounding! [10:54] Naruko     My blood is seething! [10:56] Naruko     I've been saving my power     since the Inter-High started. [11:00] Naruko     Aside from pulling the team for a while,      I've been saving my power. [11:05] Naruko     I had no idea saving your     energy could be so hard. [11:09] Naruko     Let's go, Hakone Academy! [11:11] Naruko     Naruko the Movie 2: Second-Year starts now! [11:26] Fan D     Sohoku's coming! [11:27] Fan E     But they're behind Hakone Academy     by three—no, four seconds! [11:32] Fan D     It's hard to tell how far ahead     someone is inside the tunnel. [11:36] Fan E     Is that why Kuroda attacked at the tunnel? [11:40] Fan D     Sohoku won't be able to catch up! [11:43] Naruko     You idiots! How could we not catch up? [11:46] Both     Huh? [11:47] Naruko     This scenario... [11:49] Naruko     is delicious! [11:53] Naruko     Naruko's Ultimate Super Fluttering Downhill! [11:57] Fan D     He's fast! [11:58] Fan E     How is he so fast? [12:00] Fan D     Was he just talking to us? [12:02] Naruko     Try to keep up, hotshot. [12:04] Imaizumi     Who do you think I am? [12:06] Naruko     You. [12:07] Imaizumi     Why is it "fluttering," anyway? [12:10] Naruko     I still have two more levels of speed! [12:19] Imaizumi     Fine by me. [12:20] Imaizumi     Let me see you go faster     if you really can, Naruko! [12:25] Naruko     Try not to crap yourself from the speed! [12:31] Fan K     They're so close! [12:32] Fan L     He just hit the guardrail! [12:34] Fan K     He's hitting the guardrail,      but he's still going! [12:36] Fan L     Sohoku's #3 is unbelievable! [12:39] Imaizumi     His shoulder's hitting the guardrail     as he rides right along the inside. [12:43] Imaizumi     No, it's only his jersey     that's hitting the guardrail. [12:47] Imaizumi     His downhill has gotten     faster and more precise. [12:53] Imaizumi     He's calculating the limit of his     turns using the sleeve of his jersey. [13:00] Imaizumi     By fluttering, did you mean...? [13:03] Imaizumi     Your "Super Fluttering Downhill"      is ridiculous. [13:07] Naruko     Hotshot... [13:09] Imaizumi     What? [13:09] Naruko     I wish I could tell you not to follow me. [13:12] Imaizumi     So do I. [13:13] Naruko     I should be taking this jersey     across the finish line first. [13:17] Imaizumi     Sure. [13:19] Naruko     But why don't we call a cease fire? [13:21] Naruko     If you've got something up your sleeve,      let me know what's coming. [13:25] Imaizumi     Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you. [13:30] Naruko     I knew it. [13:31] Naruko     I'd never tell you, either. [13:33] Fan M     Sohoku caught up to Hakone Academy! [13:36] Fan N     They're fast! [13:37] Fan O     It's Sohoku's #2 and #3! [13:39] Both     We're here, Hakone Academy! [13:41] Naruko     Huh? Don't copy me, hotshot! [13:43] Imaizumi     You're the one who copied me! [13:45] Naruko     I said it 0.1 seconds faster. [13:47] Imaizumi     I said it 0.01 seconds faster. [13:49] Naruko     I was 0.001 seconds faster! [13:51] Ashikiba     They're arguing? [13:51] Imaizumi     I was 0.0001 seconds faster! [13:53] Kuroda     Sohoku... [13:55] Kuroda     I'm impressed you caught up on this downhill. [13:57] Kuroda     You did well. [13:59] Kuroda     You were on last year's     Inter-High championship team. [14:02] Kuroda     Naruko Shoukichi and Imaizumi Shunsuke. [14:05] Imaizumi     Yes. [14:06] Naruko     So you know who we are. [14:08] Naruko     Since I'm on the team,     of course we caught up, [14:11] Naruko     Hakone Academy rider! [14:13] Kuroda     Kuroda. I'm third-year Kuroda Yukinari. [14:16] Kuroda     Until last year, I was a climber. [14:19] Kuroda     But this year I'm pulling the ace. [14:21] Kuroda     I wear the number 12. [14:24] Kuroda     With "2," the number of      Hakone Academy's ace assistant. [14:29] Kuroda     I'll guide my ace through the     tiniest of cracks to get ahead. [14:32] Kuroda     Quickly and accurately. [14:35] Kuroda     They call me... [14:36] Kuroda     Black Cat! [14:38] Naruko     You're a delivery service? [14:43] Kuroda     Yeah, that's right. [14:45] Kuroda     No matter how bad the conditions are,      I always deliver my ace to the finish line. [14:52] Kuroda     I'm Hakone's fastest deliveryman! [14:55] Imaizumi     They're making their move! [14:57] Naruko     I know! [15:01] Imaizumi     The downhill ends ahead. [15:03] Imaizumi     Past the bottom, there's a bridge     crossing a river and a large left turn. [15:08] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san wants to race us there. [15:11] Kuroda     It won't even be a race! [15:14] Imaizumi     He's fast! [15:15] Naruko     Seriously? [15:17] Fan P     Hakone Academy pulled ahead! [15:19] Fan Q     What was that razor-like cornering? [15:22] Fan P     That got them over two seconds ahead! [15:24] Fan Q     Hakone Academy is fast! [15:28] Kuroda     There's a rumor going around. [15:30] Kuroda     Hakone's Black Cat deliveryman     doesn't obey the speed limit. [15:36] Fan R     Hakone Academy's here! [15:38] Fan S     They're nearly there. [15:39] Fan S     Once they pass through the giant     Futaransan Shrine gate and turn right, [15:44] Fan S     the racers will be able to see the source [15:46] Fan S     of the 97-meter column of water     that is Nikko's Kegon Falls... [15:52] Fan S     Lake Chuzenji! [15:54] Kuroda     We pulled ahead on the corner. [15:58] Kuroda     The rest of the race is a single road     running along the north side of the lake. [16:03] Kuroda     The road follows the ups     and downs of the terrain. [16:05] Kuroda     That's my specialty. [16:07] Fan T     Hakone Academy's Kuroda is amazing. [16:11] Fan T     He let me touch his leg muscles     when I went to watch a race once. [16:17] Fan U     Were they rock hard? [16:19] Fan T     Well, actually... [16:21] Fan T     They were squishy. [16:23] Fan T     His muscles are soft, like mochi. [16:26] Fan U     What? [16:27] Kuroda     My legs are special. [16:30] Kuroda     Flexible legs that rotate well are     best for long, variable stages. [16:38] Kuroda     Legs trained under heavy     strain over long distances [16:41] Kuroda     shed excess muscle and develop elasticity. [16:46] Kuroda     And my legs are particularly flexible. [16:50] Kuroda     Every road racer who touches     my legs says the same things. [16:53] Kuroda     "They're thinner than I thought." [16:55] Kuroda     "They're surprisingly soft." [16:57] Kuroda     "They're round." [16:58] Kuroda     "Can you really go fast with these?" [17:01] Kuroda     But those are all just preconceptions. [17:04] Kuroda     Hard muscles being stronger     is a preconceived notion. [17:08] Kuroda     You don't need muscles of steel to     turn the crank and move forward. [17:14] Kuroda     Strength comes from having the     flexibility of a leather whip. [17:19] Kuroda     My "Cat Legs" bend freely. [17:21] Kuroda     They're top-notch. They're fast. [17:23] Kuroda     I'm heading to the finish line... [17:27] Kuroda     at full speed! [17:28] Fan Q     Hakone Academy's accelerating again! [17:30] Fan R     They're trying to leave Sohoku behind! [17:35] Kuroda     Take your time, Sohoku. [17:37] Kuroda     It's a great day for a picnic. [17:39] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan, I see him. [17:41] Kuroda     Huh? [17:43] Kuroda     There you are. [17:45] Kuroda     It might be fate that we're meeting here,      so we can talk for a moment. [17:57] Manami     Kuroda-san! [17:58] Kuroda     Manami!

[19:46] Naruko     I let my guard down a bit on the last turn. [19:49] Naruko     I was 0.5 seconds slow to react. [19:51] Imaizumi     Yeah, because you were talking. [19:53] Naruko     You were talking, too. [19:56] Naruko     You just watch, hotshot. [19:58] Naruko     Naruko the Movie is nothing if not flashy.

[03:55] (Flashback) Naruko     My time won't improve. [04:04] (Flashback) Naruko     It lacks impact. [04:06] (Flashback) Naruko     Isn't there anything else      I can use to power up further? [04:10] (Flashback) Naruko     I'm using my arms,     and naturally, I'm using my legs. [04:14] (Flashback) Naruko     If I'm going to do something,     I want something flashy. [04:17] (Flashback) Naruko     Something unthinkable that     will really surprise people. [04:27] (Flashback) Naruko     Come to think of it, [04:29] (Flashback) Naruko     my master said not to box myself in      when trying to change something.

[05:03] Naruko     They may only be toes, but those     toes will challenge common sense! [05:10] Naruko     When turning the crank on a bike and turning     that force into forward propulsion, SIGN    Forward Thrust [05:14] Naruko     the effective area is     the first quadrant only. [05:17] Naruko     The rest is converted     into downward propulsion, SIGN    Downward Thrust [05:19] Naruko     so it's inefficient to put     too much strength into it. [05:22] Naruko     The first part of your body to reach that     precious zone is the tips of your toes. [05:27] Naruko     So I strengthened my toes. [05:30] Naruko     That's how I amplified my power! [05:32] Naruko     So I could turn my pedals even harder! [05:36] Naruko     I raise my toes which would normally     be pointed down and push! [05:40] Naruko     I turn all that power into forward     propulsion without losing any of it! [05:43] Naruko     Thanks for challenging us on the climb.

[06:17] Kuroda     I see. [06:18] Kuroda     So they weren't having a falling out. [06:21] Kuroda     I'll have to flip my switch to finish this. [06:26] Kuroda     To destroy their teamwork. [06:29] Kuroda     I have one last question. [06:32] Kuroda     Sohoku, which of you two is the ace? [06:38] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan, isn't it obvious?      The guy behind— [06:43] Naruko     Curious, are you? [06:44] Imaizumi     Isn't it obvious? [06:45] Naruko     I wish I could say it's our secret strategy,     but I'll do you a favor and tell you. [06:50] Naruko     The ace is... [06:52] Both     ...me! [06:55] Naruko     What? Hotshot, what are you talking about? [06:58] Imaizumi     What—Naruko! Are you serious? [07:00] Naruko     Of course. [07:01] Naruko     I, the Red Bullet and genius     Naruko Shoukichi, am Sohoku's ace. [07:05] Imaizumi     Calm down, Naruko. I'm the ace. [07:08] Imaizumi     Teshima-san said the same thing. [07:11] Naruko     He was just saying that so you     wouldn't strain yourself. Probably. [07:15] Imaizumi     No! I'm the ace! [07:17] Naruko     Have you forgotten? [07:18] Naruko     I'm the one who won the training camp! [07:20] Naruko     I'm clearly better than you! [07:23] Imaizumi     It was... close. [07:24] Naruko     Close, but I won! [07:26] Kuroda     That's it. [07:27] Kuroda     These two are a hastily thrown together team. [07:31] Imaizumi     Wait! I thought you were pulling     so I could save my strength! [07:36] Imaizumi     Normally the man in front is the assistant! [07:38] Naruko     You idiot! [07:39] Naruko     I'm just doing it to stand out! [07:41] Naruko     You'll pull for me before the finish line! [07:43] Imaizumi     What? [07:43] Naruko     What's your deal, anyway? [07:45] Naruko     When I charged ahead... [07:47] (Flashback) Imaizumi     That's why we've prepared our fastest man! [07:50] Naruko     Isn't that what you said? [07:52] Naruko     You didn't prepare me for anything! [07:54] Imaizumi     I did! [07:55] Imaizumi     I was thinking about the team's strength! [07:59] Imaizumi     I did that so you could be the assistant! [08:02] Naruko     Why do I have to assist you? [08:05] Imaizumi     In any case, calm down. [08:06] Imaizumi     I'm the ace. [08:08] Naruko     No, me! [08:09] Imaizumi     I'm the one who told you to      switch from sprinter to all-rounder! [08:12] Naruko     I made the decision! [08:16] Kuroda     There are always aces and assistants     who hastily team up during a race. [08:22] Kuroda     And they almost always break apart. [08:28] Naruko     Wait up, idiot! [08:30] Imaizumi     Wait, Hakone Academy! [08:31] Naruko     Don't run! [08:32] Imaizumi     Where do you think you're going? [08:34] Kuroda     They reacted. Both of them, together. [08:37] Naruko     Let's race, hotshot. [08:39] Imaizumi     What? [08:40] Naruko     We'll pull ahead of     Hakone Academy before the finish line. [08:43] Imaizumi     I see. [08:44] Naruko     Whoever crosses the     finish line first is the ace! [08:47] Kuroda     What? Are they... [08:49] Imaizumi     Bring it on! [08:52] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan! [08:53] Kuroda     I know! [08:55] Kuroda     Let's go, Ashikiba! We're accelerating! [08:57] Ashikiba     Yeah! [08:58] Kuroda     They're ignoring us so     the two of them can race? [09:02] Kuroda     Don't underestimate us, Sohoku! [09:06] Imaizumi     Teshima-san is on my side. [09:09] Imaizumi     He thinks of me as the ace. [09:11] Naruko     You idiot. [09:11] Naruko     Every era's always looking for a new star. [09:14] Kuroda     They're actually arguing with each other! [09:17] Imaizumi     Keep your voice down, Naruko. [09:19] Imaizumi     Our opponents will realize we've     never worked together before. [09:22] Naruko     What? [09:23] Naruko     Okay, then let's pretend we're friends. [09:26] Imaizumi     I can't do that. [09:27] Naruko     Hey! [09:28] Kuroda     Teamwork is what's important     before the finish line. [09:32] Kuroda     It's easy to break apart opponents who lack that. [09:36] Kuroda     Ashikiba! [09:38] Ashikiba     Yeah! [09:42] Naruko     He's huge! [09:43] Imaizumi     It's Hakone Academy's Ashikiba! [09:44] Imaizumi     Is their ace making his move? [09:48] Imaizumi     No! [09:49] Naruko     It's him! [09:50] Naruko     He distracted us with the big guy,     disappeared to the other side, [09:53] Naruko     and pulled ahead! [09:56] Naruko     Crap! He's getting ahead, too! [09:59] Naruko     They took the lead in a second! [10:01] Kuroda     Things are back to normal now, Sohoku. [10:04] Naruko     Seriously? [10:05] Kuroda     That move is made possible by Ashikiba's     fake-out and my explosive power. [10:10] Kuroda     Ashikiba's big. Everyone's     eyes are drawn to him. [10:14] Kuroda     It's a combo only we can pull off. [10:17] Kuroda     Since this spring,      we've been eight for eight. [10:19] Kuroda     We've achieved more! [10:22] Imaizumi     How could you let them pass you, Naruko? [10:23] Imaizumi     Don't underestimate them. [10:24] Naruko     Well, you were just watching. [10:27] Imaizumi     You were! [10:28] Naruko     No, you! [10:29] Kuroda     It's easy to break apart a     hastily thrown together team. [10:32] Kuroda     Just force them into a corner. [10:34] Kuroda     Then they'll blame each     other for their mistakes. [10:38] Kuroda     Looks like I won't have to flip my switch. [10:41] Kuroda     You can race for third      to decide who's the ace! [10:43] Kuroda     Your nonsense won't get you anywhere! [10:46] Naruko     They're getting ahead again. [10:48] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san's explosive power is exceptional. [10:56] Teshima     Who... will take it? [10:59] Sakamichi     You mean take the lead? [11:01] Sakamichi     It's either us or Hakone Academy, right? [11:03] Sakamichi     I'm sure we'll do it. [11:06] Teshima     No, Naruko or Imaizumi... [11:09] Teshima     Which of them will take the race. [11:10] Sakamichi     Huh? [11:12] Teshima     I told them to decide between     themselves who the ace is. [11:18] Sakamichi     What? [11:19] Sakamichi     Huh? What? [11:20] Teshima     Do you think that was an     irresponsible order, Onoda? [11:23] Sakamichi     Huh? [11:25] Teshima     But last year, that's how you     dragged Sohoku into first place. [11:37] Teshima     I believe in their strength. [11:41] Teshima     They don't get along. They're always arguing.     They never cooperate. [11:46] Teshima     But... [11:48] Sakamichi     Yes. [11:49] Teshima     They know better than anyone     what they have to do. [11:55] Imaizumi     Hurry up and pull, Naruko! [11:56] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy's getting away! [11:58] Naruko     Shut up, idiot! [11:59] Naruko     I'm just taking my time since     I've got some baggage to carry. [12:02] Imaizumi     What? What baggage? [12:04] Naruko     You pulled like crazy through the mountains. [12:09] Naruko     Even for you, hotshot,      you pushed yourself too hard. [12:11] Imaizumi     Don't mention it. [12:12] Naruko     I said I'd switch with you,     but you told me to fall back. [12:16] Naruko     Man, I hate when people show off. [12:20] Naruko     So now I'm pulling for you. [12:22] Naruko     And while I'm being considerate by pulling     for you, you're reacting poorly! [12:27] Naruko     When I broke out my special Tip-Toe Advance,      you just sat there and stared. [12:31] Naruko     Don't you have anything to say?      Like, "Wow," or, "Amazing?" [12:39] Naruko     "This is what you've been hiding?" [12:41] Naruko     "Seriously? This is so amazing,      I pooped my pants!" [12:44] Naruko     Surely you can react better than that. [12:46] Imaizumi     Oh, that? [12:49] Imaizumi     I thought it was only natural,     so I wasn't surprised. [12:53] Naruko     Huh? [12:55] Imaizumi     I knew you'd have something special     prepared for the Inter-High. [13:05] Naruko     You're not so dumb, hotshot! [13:10] Naruko     Fine, let's chase them. [13:12] Naruko     I don't like that we're doing it together,     but there's only ever one thing to do. [13:17] Imaizumi     Yeah. [13:18] Naruko     Deliver this jersey to the finish line first. [13:21] Imaizumi     Of course. [13:22] Naruko     We'll catch up to      Hakone Academy and pass them! [13:25] Imaizumi     You don't need to say it! [13:29] Teshima     If we can draw out everything they have—     no, we have to to beat the champions. [13:36] Teshima     And this Inter-High has been     disrupting expectations. [13:39] Teshima     There may be more than one     opponent at the finish line. SIGN    Feed Zone [13:48] Fan J     What is that? [13:49] Fan K     They're carrying water bottles!

[14:37] Sugimoto     It's right there. [14:39] Sugimoto     If my feelings can help you in any way,      then I'll pray as hard as I can. [14:44] Sugimoto     Take it. I'm counting on you, Imaizumi. [14:47] Koga     Let's head back to the tent, Sugimoto. [14:51] Sugimoto     Yes, Koga-san. [14:53] Koga     The rest should be coming soon.

[15:10] Sugimoto     We carried everyone's supplies     here on the spare bikes. [15:14] Sugimoto     It was hard, but... [15:18] Sugimoto     I know it wasn't the official course,     but I'm glad to have ridden at the Inter-High. [15:24] Sugimoto     I rode as hard as I could. [15:25] Sugimoto     All I could think about was getting     here in time, but now I'm numb. [15:31] Sugimoto     It's exciting, isn't it? [15:33] Sugimoto     Next year, I'll work harder     so I can be in the Inter-High— [15:38] Sugimoto     Koga-san is a third-year. [15:40] Sugimoto     This is his last Inter-High. [15:44] Sugimoto     I'm sorry. [15:45] Koga     Don't worry about it, Sugimoto. [15:47] Koga     Will you be in next year's Inter-High? [15:50] Koga     Then you'll have to practice hard.

Support staff are on the course? [16:06] Sugimoto     Huh? Kyoto? [16:07] Sugimoto     But why? [16:09] Koga     Did they get them mixed up      with Hakone Academy? [16:11] Koga     You were in the same position as Sohoku. [16:15] Hakone     You didn't hear the correction on the radio? [16:19] Hakone     They shook off the others. [16:22] Hakone     I hate to think we were outmatched. [16:25] Hakone     And even if they've gone, there's no     guarantee they'll make it to the front. [16:28] Hakone     But it's true that they're pursuing them. [16:31] Hakone     I trust our riders... [16:33] Hakone     But they say Kyoto's Midousuji     was tricky last year, too. [16:38] Sugimoto     B-By himself? [16:40] Hakone     This year there's two of     them chasing the leaders! [16:45] Hakone     Kyoto Fushimi #111, the ace, Midousuji Akira! [16:50] Hakone     And #116, first-year Kishigami Komari! [16:53] Koga     Him! [16:59] Koga     Their roster said he was a sub. [17:01] Koga     Rumor was he was a masseuse. [17:04] Koga     He races? [17:09] Komari     You're really not riding in the Inter-High. [17:12] Komari     But you had such fine muscles! [17:17] Kyoto A     Go, Fushimi! [17:19] Kyoto B     Pedal, Kishigami! [17:21] Koga     What was that? [17:23] Koga     Those weren't the eyes of     a man aiming for victory. [17:26] Koga     No, they didn't go for the     sprint or mountains, either. [17:29] Koga     Has Kyoto Fushimi set their sights     on only the finish line again? [17:34] Koga     Be careful, Imaizumi and Naruko. [17:36] Koga     They intend to catch up. [17:39] (Flashback) Midousuji     Would you like to move up, Komari-kun? [17:41] (Flashback) Komari     Yes, of course. [17:43] (Flashback) Komari     I'll pull. I want to reach the     front as soon as possible. [17:46] (Flashback) Komari     There are so many fine muscles     at the front, right? [17:51] (Flashback) Komari     Oh, the muscles. The muscles... [17:56] Midousuji     Komari-kun, you really     are a man of no patience. [18:07] Izumida     It took only a moment. [18:09] Izumida     They were waiting for the momentary loss     of focus when we prepared to resupply. [18:17] Izumida     I was cautious. [18:19] Izumida     I knew Kyoto would go for the     finish line again this year. [18:23] Izumida     I knew they'd make their     move before the feed zone. [18:26] Izumida     But...

[19:20] Naruko     Final stop coming up. [19:22] Naruko     The Naruko Super Express is heading     straight to the finish line. [19:25] Imaizumi     Good. I'm taking this train. [19:27] Naruko     You can't ride for free, idiot. [19:29] Naruko     It'll cost you ten billion yen. [19:31] Iamziumi     That's cheap. Do you accept cash? [19:33] Naruko     Ugh, gross. That's what rich people say. [19:36] Imaizumi     I was joking. [19:37] Naruko     You're such a hotshot,      I didn't think you were joking! [19:40] Naruko     I bet you don't have any friends! [19:42] Imaizumi     There's Onoda, and... [19:44] Naruko     You really don't have any friends! [19:46] Naruko     Want me to be your friend? [19:48] Naruko     A special, just for you. [19:49] Imaizumi     No, I'm good. [19:50] Imaizumi     I call anyone whose house     I've been to a friend. [19:53] Naruko     Seriously? Those are kid rules!

[06:15] Midousuji     Just three kilometers left. [06:17] Midousuji     I'll take the finish line alone. [06:21] Fan A     Kyoto Fushimi's in the lead! [06:22] Fan B     Wow, seriously? [06:24] Fan C     Kyoto Fushimi's #111, Midousuji,     is the first to come up the hill! [06:29] Midousuji     At least, I was supposed to. [06:32] Fan A     And behind him is... [06:34] Midousuji     But you're the only one who     didn't take his eyes off me... [06:41] Midousuji     You chicken-headed bean! [06:44] Naruko     You should be thanking me, Midousuji. [06:46] Naruko     I thought you'd be bored traveling alone,      so I tagged along. [06:50] Fan B     Sohoku's in second! It's Naruko! [06:52] Fan B     He's keeping up with Midousuji by himself! [06:55] Fan D     What's going on? [06:56] Fan D     Ten minutes ago, they reported that Sohoku     and Hakone Academy were racing for first! [06:59] Fan E     I don't see the others! [07:01] Fan E     There's three kilometers left! [07:02] Fan E     What's going to happen? [07:04] Fan D     This is the best part of road racing! [07:07] Fan E     There's no telling who     will take the finish line! [07:11] Naruko     I hope you haven't forgotten     last winter's battle, Midousuji! [07:17] Midousuji     Did something happen? [07:20] Midousuji     The seasons have changed. [07:24] Midousuji     Chicken-headed bean... [07:26] Midousuji     It was impressive enough that you were     the only one not to take his eyes off me, [07:31] Midousuji     but what really deserves recognition... [07:35] Midousuji     is that you kept up with     my attack on the climb. [07:39] Midousuji     You were supposed to be a sprinter. [07:42] Midousuji     You even abandoned the deep     wheels you were so proud of. [07:46] Midousuji     This man really did quit being a     sprinter to become an all-rounder! [07:54] Midousuji     Sorry. I can't remember, chicken-headed bean. [07:58] Naruko     I can see in your eyes     that you do, Midousuji! [08:02] Midousuji     A sprinter... [08:04] Midousuji     I don't mind a man so     willing to give that up. [08:12] Naruko     You idiot! I'm here to reclaim that! [08:17] Midousuji     Here? With less than three kilometers     to the finish line at the Inter-High? [08:23] Midousuji     Your plan is to race against me     and reclaim the title of sprinter? [08:28] Naruko     What could be more tense, right? [08:33] Midousuji     Fine. Sounds interesting. [08:36] Midousuji     I'll do it. But... [08:43] Midousuji     Only if you can catch up to me! [08:46] Fan F     Kyoto Fushimi's accelerating     on the winding uphill! [08:49] Fan G     What is that? [08:50] Fan G     He leans so far forward when he dances! [08:52] Fan F     He's so fast! [08:52] Fan F     He's still accelerating! [08:54] Midousuji     You may have gotten faster on the climb,     but you're still only a sprinter. [08:59] Midousuji     You can't catch up to me with     just a little bit of effort. [09:08] Midousuji     Huh? [09:11] Fan G     Sohoku's Naruko is keeping up with     Kyoto Fushimi's acceleration! [09:15] Fan F     Incredible! That red-headed guy's so fast,      even though he's small! [09:18] Naruko     Don't think you can pull     ahead of me on the climb! [09:21] Naruko     I told you so before we started, Midousuji! [09:23] Midousuji     I'm all about experiencing     things to understand them. [09:28] Midousuji     Not bad, chicken-head. [09:31] Midousuji     Rather, Naruko-kun. [09:34] Midousuji     Shall we work together until     the finish line, then? [09:40] Midousuji     Good idea, right? [09:43] Midousuji     You and I are the only ones nearing     the finish line right now. [09:47] Midousuji     If we work together, we'll arrive     at the finish line first. [09:52] Midousuji     Even you could take it first. [09:55] Midousuji     You'll be able to deliver your     precious jersey to the finish line. [09:59] Midousuji     Oh, it's okay. [10:01] Midousuji     Don't worry. I'm talking     about peaceful cooperation. [10:05] Midousuji     I just want to finish as highly ranked     as possible today for tomorrow. [10:09] Midousuji     If you pedal really hard, then as a symbol     of our friendship, I'll let you— [10:17] Naruko     You're bluffing. [10:19] Naruko     Those aren't the eyes of a     man willing to give that up. [10:23] Midousuji     I'm bluffing! [10:24] Naruko     Don't use words like "friendship" that     aren't part of your normal vocabulary! [10:32] Naruko     He shifted up. [10:37] Naruko     This guy... [10:39] Naruko     He's stronger than he was last winter! [10:42] Naruko     That massive pressure was real! [10:45] Midousuji     Oh, right. [10:47] Midousuji     Chicken-head, as a special treat,     I'll show you something. [10:53] Midousuji     I still have something special up my sleeve. [11:02] Makishima     Where are we, Tadokorocchi? [11:06] Tadokoro     Kanzaki-san told me there's a traffic jam. [11:10] Tadokoro     This is a shortcut. [11:11] Kinjou     I know you're the      Rampaging Human Bullet, but... [11:16] Kinjou     You have to have limits, Tadokoro! [11:18] Tadokoro     You can count on me. [11:20] Tadokoro     We'll make it in time to     see the end of the race! [11:26] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan! [11:26] Kuroda     I know! He got past us! [11:29] Imaizumi     Did Naruko go after Midousuji? [11:32] Kuroda     We'll go after them at full speed, Ashikiba! [11:34] Ashikiba     Yeah! [11:35] Kuroda     There's no point if we can't catch up. [11:38] Kuroda     Hakone Academy has to be part     of the race for the finish line! [11:44] Kuroda     Sohoku's Imaizumi! [11:48] Kuroda     Shall we work together? [11:51] Kuroda     Don't you want to stop Midousuji? [11:54] Kuroda     We'll cooperate until then. [11:58] Imaizumi     Cooperate with Hakone Academy? [12:01] Imaizumi     There are three kilometers to the finish line. [12:03] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy is an opposing     team racing for the finish line. [12:06] Imaizumi     But Midousuji is in front of me. [12:09] Imaizumi     I'm in! [12:10] Imaizumi     I'll cooperate with you, Kuroda-san! [12:12] Kuroda     Good, but only if you can     keep up with my top speed! [12:17] Kuroda     I'm flipping my switch! [12:21] Kuroda     Don't get left behind, Imaizumi! [12:24] Imaizumi     Got it! [12:26] Fan A     Sohoku and Hakone Academy     are climbing together! [12:28] Fan B     Wow, they're cooperating! [12:30] Fan B     And Kuroda's a fast climber! [12:33] Fan A     Of course he is! [12:33] Fan A     He used to be one! [12:36] Imaizumi     Incredible... [12:38] Imaizumi     He's pulling me upward as we accelerate,      even on this incline. [12:41] Kuroda     Don't underestimate me, Kyoto Fushimi! [12:43] Kuroda     I'll make you regret     challenging me on a climb! [12:49] Imaizumi     This is different from how     he was racing earlier. [12:51] Imaizumi     Did he do something? [12:53] Imaizumi     His pressure has increased. [12:55] Imaizumi     He said something about a switch earlier. [12:58] Imaizumi     Does this have something to do     with him touching his temple? [13:03] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan... [13:04] Ashikiba     You flipped your switch. [13:06] Ashikiba     You're always so fast when you do. [13:10] (Flashback) Kuorda     Huh? What's my switch? [13:13] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You always get faster before     the finish line when [13:16] (Flashback) Ashikiba     you say you're flipping your switch. [13:19] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I was wondering what kind of     magical incantation it is. [13:21] (Flashback) Kuroda     What? [13:21] (Flashback) Kuroda     It's not an incantation. [13:23] (Flashback) Kuroda     What are you, a high school girl      who believes in jinxes? [13:26] (Flashback) Kuroda     I have a scar right here. [13:30] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Really? [13:32] (Flashback) Kuroda     I guess you hadn't heard. [13:34] (Flashback) Kuroda     A long time ago, I once suffered     an injury related to my pride. [13:38] (Flashback) Kuroda     When I turn on my switch, I'm scraping     off the unhealed scab with my nail. [13:46] (Flashback) Ashikiba     That's what you've been doing, Yuki-chan? [13:49] (Flashback) Kuroda     It bleeds nicely when I do. [13:51] (Flashback) Kuroda     It clears my mind. [13:53] (Flashback) Kuroda     It revives the old me. [13:56] (Flashback) Kuroda     The man who couldn't stand     not being best at everything. [14:02] (Flashback) Kuroda     And then... [14:03] Kuroda     It heightens my competitiveness, my focus. [14:07] Kuroda     My desire to consume my enemies shoots up. [14:10] Kuroda     Kyoto Fushimi! [14:12] Ashikiba     I can feel it, Yuki-chan. [14:14] Ashikiba     I feel it. [14:17] Ashikiba     It's heightened for me, too! [14:20] Imaizumi     Ashikiba-san increased his pressure, too? [14:23] Imaizumi     Does working together do that for this     year's #1 and #2 from Hakone Academy? [14:30] Imaizumi     Was agreeing to cooperate     with them a mistake? SIGN    Kuroda SIGN    Imaizumi SIGN    Ashikiba [14:33] Imaizumi     I'm helping my opponents     get to the finish line. SIGN    Midousuji SIGN    Naruko [14:37] Imaizumi     Sohoku has Naruko nearing the finish line. [14:40] Imaizumi     Should I have tried to stop     Hakone Academy instead? [14:44] Imaizumi     No. [14:46] Imaizumi     They could reach the front     without my cooperation. [14:50] Imaizumi     And if that happened, Sohoku would be alone. [14:52] Imaizumi     We'd be at an overwhelming disadvantage. [14:54] Fan D     Wow, Sohoku's pulling for Hakone Academy! [14:57] Fan E     Last year's rival teams are working     together to pursue the leaders! [15:01] Fan E     Such passion! [15:02] Fan D     Take a picture! [15:04] Kuroda     Not bad, Imaizumi. You pull well. [15:07] Kuroda     It's smooth and efficient. [15:09] Kuroda     And you're smart. I know what you're thinking. [15:12] Kuroda     You're wondering if you made the right     choice by agreeing to cooperate. [15:17] Kuroda     I like that look in your eyes. [15:20] Kuroda     They're the eyes of a lively and proud elite. [15:27] Kuroda     I can tell from your face     that you don't think I understand. [15:29] Kuroda     Sorry, but I do. I get it. [15:31] Kuroda     After all, I used to be an elite. [15:33] Kuroda     You don't go with the crowd, you don't     back down, and you don't listen to others. [15:37] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san's going even faster. [15:40] Kuroda     And yet you're still better than the rest. [15:43] Kuroda     No wonder you're confused. [15:45] Imaizumi     I'm not like that. [15:47] Kuroda     Good luck with that, kid. [15:51] Imaizumi     I've worked harder than anyone else. [15:53] Imaizumi     That's why I'm strong. [15:55] Imaizumi     I've achieved things, too. [15:56] Imaizumi     It has nothing to do with being an elite. [15:59] Kuroda     In order to become stronger     and rise higher... [16:07] Kuroda     Have you ever bowed your head     to the one you hate the most? [16:15] Kuroda     That's it. Keep it up, Imaizumi. [16:17] Kuroda     I'd like to see how far your     friendly little club gets you. [16:21] Kuroda     I believe a team is about becoming     stronger by struggling against [16:26] Kuroda     and hating each other. [16:29] Kuroda     Well, good luck. [16:32] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan, I'll switch     with you. I'll lead next. [16:35] Kuroda     Stay back, Takuto! [16:39] Ashikiba     But we need to catch up     as quickly as possible. [16:42] Ashikiba     And all three of us are working together. [16:44] Kuroda     Don't be absurd, Takuto! [16:46] Kuroda     You're the ace! [16:47] Kuroda     Taking the finish line is the ace's job! [16:52] Kuroda     Trusting your assistants and     conserving your strength [16:54] Kuroda     no matter how bad it gets is your job! [16:58] Kuroda     Don't worry. [16:59] Kuroda     I'll pull twice as hard for you. [17:02] Kuroda     And if Imaizumi's not happy with that,      I'll pull three times as hard. [17:06] Imaizumi     Even under these circumstances,     he still intends to be his assistant? [17:10] Kuroda     Just shut up and follow me. [17:12] Kuroda     I'm Black Cat Kuroda, the deliveryman! [17:20] Imaizumi     But I still don't see Midousuji. [17:24] Imaizumi     Damn it. Only two     and a half kilometers left. [17:27] Imaizumi     Will we fail to catch up to them? [17:29] Imaizumi     If that happens... [17:31] Imaizumi     I'm counting on you, Naruko! [17:38] Midousuji     You're at your limit. [17:41] Midousuji     Is that the best you can do,      chicken-headed bean? [17:46] Midousuji     In that case, the finish line is mine. [17:54] Fan     There are 2.5 kilometers left to     the first day's finish line! [17:57] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi's in the lead! [17:58] Fan     Go! [18:00] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi! [18:01] Staff     Kyoto Fushimi is amazing this year. [18:04] Staff     I just heard over the radio that     there's three guys chasing after them, [18:07] Staff     but they're pretty far behind. [18:09] Staff     He might actually be able to     stay ahead of them and win! [18:15] Fan E     Kyoto Fushimi's raising his pace! [18:17] Fan E     He's trying to stay ahead! [18:19] Fan G     Sohoku's desperately chasing after him! [18:21] Fan G     At this rate, the first day will go     to either Sohoku or Kyoto Fushimi! [18:25] Midousuji     There are two ways to take the     finish line in a road race. [18:30] Midousuji     Either catch up to those who     raced ahead for a "group finish," [18:34] Midousuji     or stay ahead of the others     in a "running finish." [18:39] Midousuji     I'm fairly far ahead of Hakone Academy. [18:42] Midousuji     I read the terrain and timing     to achieve this margin. [18:46] Midousuji     If I can just maintain this lead, I'll win! [18:53] Midousuji     Only two kilometers left! [18:57] Midousuji     Winning, victory, the fruits of my labor... [19:00] Midousuji     Proof I'm faster than the others. [19:03] Midousuji     Stronger than the others. [19:05] Midousuji     More right than the others. [19:08] Midousuji     Purer than anything else. [19:11] Midousuji     That is the finish line! [19:14] Midousuji     So why are you trying so hard with     clenched teeth and a pained expression? [19:22] Midousuji     Why? You should allow your spirit     to be broken and just give up. [19:28] Midousuji     Why are you so close, chicken-headed bean? [19:32] Midousuji     What is it? The power of friendship? [19:35] Midousuji     Is the energy Weakizumi-kun's     sending you giving you courage? [19:39] Midousuji     Don't push yourself so hard.     Feel free to drop out. [19:42] Naruko     You said you'd race me if I caught up,      so I caught up, Midousuji! [19:48] Naruko     I've been waiting for you to     switch from watching your back [19:51] Naruko     to letting down your guard     and only facing forward! [19:59] Midousuji     You intend to get in my way? [20:02] Naruko     With all my might! [20:04] Midousuji     What an unpleasant attitude. [20:07] Naruko     That's rich, coming from you. [20:10] Naruko     That's the perfect sound for a starting bell! [20:14] Fan H     He's so fast! [20:15] Fan H     He was falling behind earlier! [20:17] Fan I     He let him get ahead so he could     conserve his strength on the climb. [20:21] Fan H     What do you mean? [20:22] Fan I     The first day's course follows a [20:24] Fan I     winding road after Lake Chuzenji     into the final uphill climb.

[20:56] Naruko     It's just like our race in Osaka. [21:00] Naruko     And on top of that,      we're racing for the finish line! [21:05] Naruko     Surely you don't have any— [21:07] Midousuji     No complaints here, chicken-headed bean. [21:14] Naruko     He's breaking out his special technique. [21:16] (Flashback) Midousuji     I'll race you. However,      you'll only get one chance. [21:24] (Flashback) Naruko     That's plenty. [21:29] Midousuji     Gross!

[05:03] Tadokoro     What did you think of my driving? [05:05] Tadokoro     Looks like we'll get to see     the finish, Makishima, Kinjou. [05:10] Makishima     I-It sucks. [05:12] Makishima     My flight was six hours late,     and then that crazy car ride... [05:17] Kinjou     Y-You took a road that wasn't on the map. [05:21] Kinjou     I'm impressed, Tadokoro. [05:23] Makishima     Don't feel like you have to compliment him. [05:26] Makishima     So, this where it is this year. [05:29] Kinjou     Yeah. Nikkou City, Tochigi Prefecture. [05:32] Kinjou     On the northwest side of Lake Chuzenji [05:34] Kinjou     is Senjougahara, a marsh stretching across      the terrain at 1,400 meters above sea level. [05:39] Kinjou     The eruptions of Mount Nantaisan formed a lake [05:42] Kinjou     that became a marsh over     a long period of time. [05:45] Kinjou     National Route 120 cuts through Senjougahara. [05:50] Kinjou     And the Sanbonmatsu Park     parking lot gate is [05:54] Kinjou     the finish line of day one of     the Tochigi Inter-High. [06:00] Makishima     I haven't felt this tension     and anticipation in a while. [06:04] Tadokoro     Yeah. I can't get enough of this atmosphere. [06:07] Tadokoro     Just thinking about it     sends chills down my spine. [06:09] Tadokoro     You can really feel that unique     sensation of the Inter-High. [06:14] Kinjou     You're right. [06:17] Makishima     So, who's going to be first? [06:22] Kinjou     Imaizumi, as the ace? [06:25] Tadokoro     You might be surprised. [06:28] Tadokoro     It could be that little red bean. [06:33] Fan A     They're entering the flat     before the finish line! [06:36] Fan B     Kyoto Fushimi removed some kind of tape! [06:38] Naruko     Midousuji's playing the ace up his sleeve! [06:42] Midousuji     Unleashing both legs. [06:44] Midousuji     This is the trump card      I've been saving until now. [06:53] Midousuji     You still haven't fallen,     chicken-headed bean! [06:57] Naruko     The road's wide enough! [06:59] Naruko     Stay away from me, Gross-suji! [07:01] Naruko     I'm on fire now, Midousuji! [07:03] Naruko     My blood is boiling! [07:05] Midousuji     Then maybe you should go to     the hospital, chicken-head! [07:10] Naruko     I'll go to any hospital,     as long as it's red and flashy! [07:15] Midousuji     Chicken-head... [07:17] Midousuji     This little bean has gotten stronger. [07:21] Midousuji     He improved his climbing, but he     hasn't gotten slower on the flats. [07:24] Midousuji     If anything, it feels like he's applying     his climbing muscles to the flats. [07:31] Midousuji     Not bad. [07:32] Midousuji     Come to think of it, Ishigaki-kun     mentioned something last winter. [07:36] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Naruko-kun might return to racing. [07:42] (Flashback) Midousuji     Huh? What makes you say that? [07:46] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Midousuji, disappointment     makes people stronger. [07:53] Midousuji     Bring it on. [07:54] Midousuji     I'll overthrow your strength and     wrest the victory from your hands. [07:59] Both     One kilometer left! [08:02] Naruko     I'm getting chills.      My hair's standing on end. [08:05] Naruko     I'm in a make-or-break race with Midousuji [08:09] Naruko     on the flat before the     Inter-High's finish line. [08:11] Naruko     A thousand meters remain! [08:13] Naruko     Tons of fans are watching! [08:16] Naruko     If this isn't flashy... [08:19] Naruko     I don't know what is! [08:21] Fan     There are 900 meters left! [08:23] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi is pulling ahead! [08:25] Naruko     Good, Midousuji. This is the best. [08:28] Naruko     I'm burning up. Let's do this. [08:31] Naruko     Let's put our lives on the line! [08:37] Fan     He's so fast! Sohoku's keeping up! [08:40] Fan     They're seriously amazing! [08:41] Fan     I can feel their spirit from over here! [08:44] Fan     So it's come down to those two. [08:56] Fan     The next three have made it up the hill! [09:01] Kuroda     How far behind are we? [09:03] Kuroda     Three-hundred and fifty meters. [09:05] Imaizumi     We're so far behind. [09:07] Imaizumi     It'll be hard to catch up from here. [09:11] Imaizumi     But Naruko's with him. [09:13] Imaizumi     This isn't a bad development for Sohoku! [09:17] Kuroda     Damn it. [09:18] Kuroda     All the pride Hakone Academy has built up... [09:21] Kuroda     Was our riding not good enough? [09:25] Kuroda     I got our ace this far. [09:27] Kuroda     Me, the Black Cat Deliveryman. [09:30] Kuroda     And because of just one stupid     mistake, the finish line... [09:34] Kuroda     If you've got time to think, ride, Yukinori! [09:38] Kuroda     Let's go, Takuto! [09:42] Ashikiba     It's okay, Yuki-chan. [09:44] Kuroda     Huh? [09:46] Ashikiba     The two of us can't close this gap. [09:49] Ashikiba     Even if the two of you pull,      we'll never catch up. [09:53] Ashikiba     But with the three of us,      we may be able to reach them. [10:00] Ashikiba     There's no point if the ace doesn't     save his strength for the finish line. [10:04] Ashikiba     But unless you're in front of the finish line,      there's nothing to race for. [10:11] Ashikiba     I'll pull. [10:13] Ashikiba     We... Hakone Academy has     nothing left to lose! [10:25] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy's ace Ashikiba-san     is making his move! [10:32] Imaizumi     Their ace moved to the front. [10:34] Imaizumi     He's helping us catch up     to Midousuji and Naruko. [10:40] Imaizumi     He's fast. He's huge. [10:42] Imaizumi     He towers over me,      and I'm 180 centimeters tall. [10:46] Imaizumi     Standing at 202 centimeters,      he's the tallest man at the race. [10:50] Imaizumi     His wind pressure is incredible. [10:52] Kuroda     Takuto, is there classical     music playing inside your head? [10:58] Ashikiba     Yes. [11:00] Ashikiba     The clichéd Ninth! [11:03] Ashikiba     The Ninth Symphony! [11:09] Kuroda     Keep it up, Takuto! [11:12] Fan A     They're catching up! [11:14] Fan B     Hakone Academy's ace is pulling! [11:16] Fan C     Only Sohoku and Kyoto Fushimi     have riders in the lead group! [11:20] Fan D     Will they catch up? [11:21] Fan E     Their rotation has increased their speed... [11:25] Fan F     But there's only one kilometer left! [11:28] Ashikiba     We'll catch up. We'll catch up. [11:31] Ashikiba     We're slowly closing the gap. [11:33] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan carried me this     far so I could rest. [11:37] Ashikiba     The classical music is playing. [11:39] Ashikiba     My heart is pounding. [11:41] Ashikiba     I never thought I'd get to be in the Inter-High,      but here I am turning my pedals. [11:47] Ashikiba     On top of that, I'm wearing     Hakone Academy's #1 tag. [11:52] Ashikiba     Me, the team's best laundry boy! SIGN    Club Chores [11:57] (Flashback) Fukutomi     What do you want to be? [12:02] (Flashback) Ashikiba     The best ri... [12:07] (Flashback) Ashikiba     ...rider. [12:10] (Flashback) Shinkai     What do you like? [12:13] (Flashback) Ashikiba     The piano. [12:14] (Flashback) Shinkai     Good. [12:15] (Flashback) Shinkai     Use that to ride. [12:17] (Flashback) Shinkai     Let it push you forward. [12:19] Ashikiba     I finally achieved something. [12:23] Ashikiba     But... [12:25] Ashikiba     No way. No way. [12:29] Ashikiba     Why can't I win? [12:32] Ashikiba     I'm wearing a jersey. [12:33] Ashikiba     I promised Fukutomi-san I would win. [12:39] Ashikiba     In that moment, unable to understand     the situation, my brain got a flat tire. [12:45] Ashikiba     I tried to reset everything. [12:49] Ashikiba     I was racing to repay their kindness. [12:54] Ashikiba     But I couldn't think anymore. [12:58] (Flashback) Fan     He's riding backward! Watch out! [13:02] Ashikiba     I betrayed their expectations. [13:05] (Flashback) Fukutomi     I'm placing you on house arrest indefinitely. [13:07] (Flashback) Fukutomi     I'm not letting you race. [13:10] (Flashback) Fukutomi     You won't race at the Inter-High, either. [13:12] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm sorry. [13:15] Ashikiba     It was a dizzying three years. [13:18] Ashikiba     A less than laudable three years. [13:22] Ashikiba     "Riding backward on the course." [13:23] Ashikiba     "Indefinitely suspended from racing." [13:26] Ashikiba     I screwed up. [13:29] Ashikiba     But my teammates supported me. [13:32] Ashikiba     My seniors forgave me. [13:36] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Ashikiba, the race for the finish is     both a physical and mental battle. [13:43] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Tell yourself over and over      that you are the ace. [13:49] (Flashback) Fukutomi     That you are strong. [13:53] Ashikiba     I am strong! [13:55] Ashikiba     So these limbs, this body, this number tag... [14:00] Ashikiba     This opportunity doesn't belong to me! [14:04] Kuroda     Go, Takuto. [14:06] Kuroda     You carried such anguish and pain,     such hopes to make it this far. [14:13] Ashikiba     I'm racing to repay all the people [14:17] Ashikiba     who called me the ace! [14:23] Fan G     It's the Hakone Academy ace     Ashikiba's Metronome Dancing! [14:27] Fan H     The way he swings his giant body     back and forth is like a metronome! [14:33] Fan I     He's huge! [14:34] Fan J     He's fast! [14:36] Ashikiba     I am strong! [14:39] Ashikiba     I'm catching up! [14:40] Ashikiba     I'm catching up to the guys in front! [14:44] Kuroda     Switch with me, Takuto! [14:47] Fan K     Hakone Academy's Kuroda moved to the front! [14:50] Fan     Go, Kuroda! [14:52] Kuroda     I'll show you how I pull! [14:54] Kuroda     This is Hakone Academy's final effort! [14:56] Kuroda     Bend, Cat Legs! [15:02] Kuroda     We'll catch up! [15:03] Kuroda     Kyoto's Midousuji and Sohoku's Naruko! [15:09] Imaizumi     Take it, Naruko! [15:11] Ashikiba     I have to... [15:12] Kuroda     ...catch up! [15:13] Nuarko     It's almost... [15:14] Midousuji     ...the finish line! [15:16] Fan L     The trailing three are chasing after them! [15:19] Fan M     They have the two in front in their sights! [15:21] Fan N     Is it a five-man finish line sprint? [15:24] Fan O     There are three behind and two in front! [15:26] Fan O     They have the numbers advantage! [15:28] Fan P     Maybe if there were a thousand     meters left, but the finish line... [15:35] Fan P     ...is 500 meters ahead! [15:36] Fan P     They're at a disadvantage! [15:41] Midousuji     The running finish. [15:42] Midousuji     You're wasting your time, Hakone Academy. [15:45] Midousuji     Even if you pool your efforts     and work your muscles, [15:51] Midousuji     this margin at 500 meters remaining... [15:57] Midousuji     ...was always part of my calculations! [16:02] Midousuji     This chicken-head was the only     thing I didn't account for. [16:08] Naruko     Why are you staring at me     like that, Midousuji? [16:12] Naruko     We're at the finish line. [16:13] Naruko     Determination, full power, flashiness... [16:16] Naruko     Even men fall for my flashiness! [16:18] Naruko     Have you fallen for me, too, Midousuji? [16:21] Midousuji     I was just exercising my eyes,      since they were stinging from all your red, [16:27] Midousuji     chicken-head! [16:29] Midousuji     Gross! [16:32] Midousuji     You're determined to interfere     with my victory, aren't you? [16:35] Naruko     I'm not just interfering! I'm going to win! [16:38] Midousuji     You're in the way! Move! [16:40] Naruko     You're in the way, idiot! [16:43] Fan Q     They're crashing into each     other before the finish line? [16:45] Fan R     Wow! [16:47] Midousuji     You're strong. [16:50] Midousuji     You really are amazing. [16:55] Midousuji     Every time I race against you,     I have the same thought. [17:01] Midousuji     If you had stayed in Kansai for high school     and joined Kyoto Fushimi with me... [17:09] Midousuji     If we'd been on the same team—and maybe     it's weird for me to say this now... [17:16] Midousuji     But I always think of how we could've     been the best of friends, Naruko-kun. [17:25] Midousuji     Don't you agree? [17:29] Midousuji     The two of us... [17:32] Naruko     You finished telling lies, Midousuji? [17:36] Naruko     Is this bluff an attempt to distract me      with warm fuzzy feelings [17:39] Naruko     and kill your opponent's tension     before the finish line? [17:43] Naruko     You'll do anything to win. [17:46] Naruko     You really are something, Midousuji. [17:48] Naruko     But you won't fool me! [17:50] Naruko     You don't think we'd be best friends! [17:56] Midousuji     You're right! Not in the slightest! [17:59] Midousuji     I've never even considered it! [18:03] Imaizumi     So that's what you meant, Naruko. [18:06] Imaizumi     The day you returned from Osaka,     you said you raced someone. [18:13] Sohoku     Wow, takoyaki. [18:13] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Who did you race against? [18:15] (Flashback) Naruko     Nobody, really. [18:16] (Flashback) Naruko     It wasn't someone you know. [18:18] Sakamichi     Thanks for the food. [18:19] Imaizumi     But your opponent was... [18:23] Imaizumi     Midousuji! [18:26] Imaizumi     That's why you kept your eyes on him [18:28] Imaizumi     during the confusion earlier     and raced after him. [18:33] Imaizumi     And now you're side by side,     racing for the finish line. [18:37] Imaizumi     You should've told me if it     was that important, Naruko. [18:43] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I'm the one who told you     to become an all-rounder! [18:47] (Flashback) Naruko     I made the decision! [18:49] (Flashback) Naruko     Let's race, hotshot. [18:51] (Flashback) Imaizumi     What? [18:52] (Flashback) Naruko     We'll pull ahead of Hakone Academy      before the finish line. [18:55] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I see. [18:55] (Flashback) Naruko     Whoever crosses the finish     line first is the ace! [18:59] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Bring it on! [19:01] Imaizumi     So that's how it is. [19:04] Imaizumi     Go, Naruko. [19:06] Imaizumi     If I catch up to you just     before the finish line... [19:12] Imaizumi     I'll push your back as hard as I can! [19:17] Imaizumi     Today, you're the ace, Naruko! [19:20] Imaizumi     Take the finish line! [19:22] Fan S     The leaders have crossed the 400 meter line! [19:25] Fan T     Sohoku's Naruko is in front! [19:28] Midousuji     He refuses to let me have it. [19:33] Midousuji     Then I don't have a choice. [19:36] Midousuji     I'll have to fly before the finish line! [19:41] Naruko     Fly? [19:43] Naruko     Is Midousuji breaking out     his true trump card? [19:48] Fan T     The others have crossed the 400-meter line! [19:50] Fan U     Go, Hakone Academy! [19:54] Kuroda     We're chasing as fast as we can,     but they're going at top speed, too. [19:57] Kuroda     It's not that easy to close this gap. [20:00] Kuroda     But! But! [20:02] Kuroda     It's not easy, but... [20:06] Kuroda     There's nothing I can't do! [20:16] Fan V     Just 300 meters remaining! [20:17] Fan V     They're closing the gap! [20:19] Fan W     Will they stay ahead? Will they catch up?

[10:11] Teshima     Thanks to you, all six of us finished. [10:16] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [10:18] Aya     Don't they race again tomorrow? [10:20] Miki     Huh? [10:21] Aya     Can Teshima-san race like this? [10:28] Aya     Huh? [10:37] Kaburagi     Huh? The ground's getting closer... [10:43] Kaburagi     Why is it getting closer? [10:47] Danchiku     Issa! [10:47] Aoyagi     Kaburagi! [10:50] Kaburagi     I collapsed? [10:52] Kaburagi     That's impossible. [10:55] Kaburagi     That was only the first day      of the Inter-High... [10:58] Sakamichi     K-K-K-K-Kaburagi-kun! [11:00] Aoyagi     Leave him on the ground, Onoda. [11:02] Aoyagi     Did he just lose consciousness? [11:03] Aya     Another member? [11:05] Aoyagi     Call the first-aid tent. [11:07] Aoyagi     And bring some cold water. [11:09] ---      [11:09] Imaizumi     He was angrily ranting about     Naruko until a second ago! [11:14] Imaizumi     Your adrenaline keeps you energized     during and after a race. [11:15] Miki     Bring him inside. [11:16] Aoyagi     Get three towels. [11:17] Danchiku     Yes, sir. [11:20] Imaizumi     But once that runs out, all the exhaustion     that's built up hits you at once. [11:27] Imaizumi     I should've forced him to cool down. [11:30] Imaizumi     I had my hands full with myself. [11:34] Imaizumi     I can't believe the team is this damaged. [11:37] Imaizumi     Damn it. [11:38] Aoyagi     Ice water. [11:39] Miki     Got it. [11:39] Imaizumi     You're an important part of     this team, too, Kaburagi Issa. [11:45] Teshima     Onoda... [11:47] Sakamichi     Yes? [11:49] Teshima     Go look for Naruko. [11:52] Teshima     There's something we all need to talk     about before we head to the hotel. [12:01] Sakamichi     Where is Naruko-kun? [12:03] Sakamichi     The awards ceremony is over. [12:05] Sakamichi     Ouch... [12:06] Sakamichi     My legs are sore. [12:10] Sakamichi     I wonder what he wants to talk about. [12:12] Sakamichi     Is it important? [12:13] Teshima     Kaburagi and I can't race tomorrow. [12:16] Teshima     The four of you have to race. [12:17] Kaburagi     Good luck. [12:19] Sakamichi     No, no! Makishima-san said     bad thoughts bring bad results. [12:28] Sakamichi     The six of us will ride. [12:31] Sakamichi     I'm sure we'll be fine. [12:33] Sakamichi     Sohoku is a team that supports each other! [12:38] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san said the same thing last year! [12:40] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san... [12:49] Sakamichi     What? [12:56] Tadokoro     You sure, Makishima? [12:58] Makishima     Yeah. [13:00] Tadokoro     It's your decision to make. [13:02] Tadokoro     You traveled the farthest. [13:05] Makishima     This is fine. [13:10] Sakamichi     Huh? [13:17] Sakamichi     What? [13:21] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san? [13:24] Kinjou     We were watching at the finish line. [13:27] Kinjou     You've put together a good team, Onoda. [13:31] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san... [13:33] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san! [13:35] Kinjou     It's been a while. [13:37] Kinjou     Looks like you've grown a little. [13:40] Kinjou     Your face has changed. [13:41] Sakamichi     Huh? Really? [13:43] Sakamichi     Y-You came to cheer us on? [13:46] Sakamichi     Th-Thank you! [13:48] Sakamichi     It's really you! [13:53] Sakamichi     The team's in trouble. [13:56] Sakamichi     Teshima-san is exhausted, and our     first-year Kaburagi-kun collapsed. [14:03] Sakamichi     Come to our tent. [14:04] Sakamichi     Everyone will be glad to see you. [14:06] Sakamichi     A visit from you will cheer them up. [14:09] Sakamichi     It's this way. [14:14] Kinjou     I can't. [14:15] Sakamichi     Y-You have something to do? You're busy? [14:18] Sakamichi     But couldn't you just stop by? [14:21] Sakamichi     I-Isn't Sohoku a team that supports each other? [14:24] Kinjou     You're the ones who support each other. [14:26] Sakamichi     Huh? [14:28] Kinjou     You're the only ones within arm's     reach when you need each other. [14:33] Kinjou     We've already graduated. [14:37] Kinjou     We can't support you anymore. [14:52] Imaizumi     Onoda, where have you been? [14:53] Imaizumi     Naruko came back already. [14:55] Sakamichi     Sorry I'm late. [14:57] Naruko     Let's get this team meeting     started, Onoda-kun. [15:00] Sakamichi     Okay. [15:02] Teshima     We gave everything we had. All six of us. [15:06] Teshima     And we lost. [15:08] Teshima     Naruko did his best, but in the end,      he couldn't make it. [15:12] Teshima     It was a close second. [15:16] Imaizumi     Teshima-san and Kaburagi     were close seconds, too. [15:21] Imaizumi     We were beaten at the very last second. [15:24] Teshima     The answer I've drawn from this... [15:30] Teshima     ...is that we're still only challengers! [15:35] Teshima     Hakone Academy is strong. [15:37] Teshima     The fans have high hopes for them, too. [15:39] Teshima     And we can't underestimate Kyoto Fushimi. [15:42] Teshima     So... [15:43] Teshima     There's only one thing for us to do. [15:45] Teshima     It's the same as last year. [15:47] Teshima     We'll persistently hang on until we're     exhausted, try and fail repeatedly, [15:53] Teshima     find the tiniest of opportunities,      and seize them. [15:57] Teshima     We'll entrust our souls to each other      and ride as hard as we can. [16:00] Teshima     We'll help and support each     other and never give up. [16:04] Teshima     We just have to ride the way Sohoku rides! [16:07] Naruko     Is that our only option? [16:09] Imaizumi     It's an exhausting way to ride. [16:14] Teshima     That's right. [16:17] Sakamichi     I have an announcement. [16:21] Sakamichi     I just ran into Kinjou-san     at the Inter-High grounds. [16:25] Naruko     Kin... [16:26] Teshima     What? [16:28] Imaizumi     Kinjou-san's here? [16:30] Naruko     Captain Shades is here? [16:32] Naruko     Oh, I guess he's not the captain anymore. [16:35] Aoyagi     And Tadokoro-san and Makishima-san? [16:36] Teshima     Are they coming by the tent later? [16:38] Sakamichi     They said they couldn't see us. [16:41] All     What? [16:44] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Wh-Why not? It could be for just a second. [16:50] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I know it would make everyone happy. [16:56] (Flashback) Kinjou     At first, we planned to visit     your tent and praise you guys. [17:00] (Flashback) Kinjou     But on the first day, Sohoku just     barely let their chance slip away. [17:06] (Flashback) Kinjou     We thought it would be dangerous. [17:07] (Flashback) Sakamichi     All the more reason for you to come. [17:13] (Flashback) Kinjou     The power to avoid a dangerous situation [17:15] (Flashback) Kinjou     or turn that into a victory only lies     within the individual or the team. [17:22] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san was actually... [17:24] (Flashback) Kinjou     If we go, the tension will be shattered. [17:28] (Flashback) Kinjou     You'll lose sight of what you have to do. [17:30] (Flashback) Kinjou     It'll divide the team. [17:35] (Flashback) Kinjou     You're at your weakest right now. [17:38] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's why we can't go. [17:40] (Flashback) Kinjou     You must understand that, Onoda. [17:45] Sakamichi     He was thinking of us. [17:48] (Flashback) Kinjou     Struggle against your difficult     circumstances, Onoda. [17:52] (Flashback) Kinjou     That will surely give rise to something. [17:55] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [17:58] (Flashback) Kinjou     Good. [17:59] Kinjou     You have the face of a     second-year now, Onoda. [18:03] (Flashback) Kinjou     We were going to leave without seeing anyone,      but I'm glad I got to talk to you. [18:08] (Flashback) Kinjou     The three of us decided we     wouldn't see anyone today. [18:11] (Flashback) Sakamichi     The three of you? [18:13] (Flashback) Kinjou     I know it's hard, but try to understand. [18:15] (Flashback) Kinjou     But we plan to stick around and watch     the race for as long as we can. [18:20] (Flashback) Kinjou     Go back and tell the others     that we'll be watching. [18:27] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Um... three of you? [18:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     Yeah. Makishima came, too. [18:36] (Flashback) Kinjou     All the way from England. [18:41] Sakamichi     M-Makishima-san is at the race? [18:46] Sakamichi     He's in Japan? [18:48] (Flashback) Sakamichi     M-Makishima-san... [18:52] Kinjou     Does it hurt not to see him, Onoda? [18:55] Kinjou     I'm sure it does. SIGN    Dear Brother [18:57] Kinjou     Makishima said he's gotten a     lot of letters from you. [19:01] Kinjou     But it's Makishima's decision. [19:05] (Flashback) Kinjou     Does it hurt, Onoda? [19:12] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Makishima-san is here. [19:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He's watching us race. [19:23] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm glad! [19:28] Imaizumi     So they can't come see us. [19:31] Naruko     He's tough. [19:33] Naruko     What is he, a rock? [19:35] Aoyagi     Tadokoro-san... [19:37] Teshima     So that's how it is. [19:39] Teshima     They can't support us when we're weak. [19:42] Sakamichi     So... [19:46] Sakamichi     Let's get stronger. [19:48] Sakamichi     We'll become stronger. [19:51] Teshima     This rising pressure... [19:53] Teshima     Kinjou-san described     Onoda that way last year. [19:59] Sakamichi     Let's show them our new Sohoku! [20:03] Teshima     Those forward-facing eyes... [20:05] Teshima     This is what moved Sohoku last year. [20:08] Teshima     That's it. It's simple,     but you're right, Onoda. [20:12] Naruko     Of course. [20:13] Naruko     In that case, let's shock them. [20:15] Imaizumi     So they won't see us until we win? [20:18] Imaizumi     His orders are as difficult as ever. [20:22] Aoyagi     We have to be number one. [20:28] Sakamichi     Let's do it again tomorrow, Sohoku! [20:32] All     Yeah! [20:36] All     All right! [20:39] Imaizumi     Oh. [20:41] Imaizumi     We forgot someone. [20:48] Aya     What? [20:58] Tadokoro     "I'm glad," huh? [21:00] Kinjou     Onoda's still a surprising guy. [21:05] Makishima     Sounds like Onoda.

[11:12] Mizuta     That's right. [11:13] Mizuta     Kiriya, Funatsu, you two have to catch     everyone who breaks away from the pack! [11:19] Kiriya     Uh, that's easier said than done. [11:20] Funatsu     Catching all of them would be impossible. [11:23] Mizuta     You'll do it! [11:24] Int_Mizuta     This is my big chance! [11:26] Int_Mizuta     Without Midousuji here, I can become the ace! [11:33] Midosuji     Mizuta-kun! [11:35] Funatsu     Midousuji-san! [11:37] Midosuji     What do you think you're doing? [11:40] Midosuji     You know not to have a meeting     without my permission, correct? [11:45] Midosuji     You aren't the leader. [11:48] Midosuji     Y-Yes, Midousuji-kun! [11:53] Int_Kiriya     Kishigami! [11:54] Int_Funatsu     Where has he been? [11:57] Int_Kiriya     He was on the reserves list at first,     but was later given a spot in the Inter-High. [12:01] Int_Kiriya     And at the end of day one, he caught up     to the leading pack like it was nothing. [12:05] Int_Funatsu     He's the biggest unknown here...      Kishigami Komari. [12:10] Kishigami     What is it? [12:11] Kiriya     N-Nothing. [12:11] Midosuji     Huh? I can't understand you. [12:13] Funatsu     We were wondering where you've been. [12:15] Kishigami     Ah. [12:21] Int_Both     You're not going to answer?! [12:26] Yamaguchi     Huh? I see. [12:28] Yamaguchi     Okay, I'll head back. [12:32] Yamaguchi     Maybe he was just riding     to blow off some steam. [12:36] Yamaguchi     A false alarm, I guess. SIGN    Sprint Point SIGN    Phase 28 SIGN    Josanmo Panorama Road [12:39] Midosuji     There are two crucial points.

[13:19] Kuroda     I'm riding tomorrow. [13:32] Tachibana     Oh, you're right. [13:33] Tachibana     It said "Goal" yesterday,     but now it says "Start." [13:38] Kanzaki     Yep. [13:39] Tachibana     They're going to have another     day of that long battle. [13:43] Tachibana     The third-years, the first-year, Naruko,     Imaizumi-kun, and four-eyes.

[15:56] Guy     It gives them a powerful presence. [16:03] Onoda     What is it? Hakone Academy seem     different from yesterday. [16:07] Naruko     Yeah, they're pumped up. [16:10] Naruko     That's the strength of those     who made good on their word. [16:13] Imaizumi     We have to watch out, or they'll     start to control the race. [16:22] Imaizumi     But even so, we won't lose. [16:25] Naruko     This is good. The chase      is always more exciting. [16:32] Onoda     Yeah, let's ride with everything we've got!

[16:51] Int_Shinkai     Last year was his first Inter-High. [16:54] Int_Shinkai     His first race, and he conquered     the final mountain. [16:57] Int_Shinkai     They started calling him... [16:59] Int_Shinkai     The Mountain King. [17:01] Int_Shinkai     He doesn't look much like a king, [17:04] Int_Shinkai     and he seems completely defenseless     when he's not on his bike. [17:08] Onoda     Oh, there it is. [17:10] Onoda     Thank goodness. [17:12] Shinkai     They say everyone who goes to see you after     hearing the rumors doesn't recognize you, [17:18] Shinkai     and I guess that must be true. [17:22] Onoda     Wow, it's a cool guy! [17:27] Shinkai     Click. [17:29] Shinkai     Kawhap! [17:33] Shinkai     That was how my brother     said he'd beat someone. [17:38] Shinkai     Huh? Maybe it was "kapow" instead of "kawhap." [17:41] Shinkai     You know my brother, Shinkai Hayato, right? [17:45] Shinkai     Hayato-kun? [17:47] Onoda     Shinkai-san? [17:49] Shinkai     My name's Yuto. [17:53] Shinkai     I'm a first-year. [17:54] Onoda     Thank you. [17:56] Shinkai     My team doesn't know this, but... [18:00] Shinkai     I came to the Inter-High to challenge you. [18:05] Shinkai     I was ordered to stop you if you made     a move in the mountains yesterday. [18:09] Shinkai     Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance. [18:13] Shinkai     Let's race at some point today. [18:18] Onoda     R-Race? [18:19] Shinkai     Is your answer yes, Mountain King? [18:26] Onoda     "Mountain King"? [18:28] Shinkai     It's your nickname. [18:30] Onoda     Nickname? [18:32] (Flashback) Fb_Makishima     My nickname is the Peak Spider! [18:39] Onoda     A nickname? For me? [18:42] Onoda     That's great news! Mountain King, you said? [18:45] Onoda     Is that like "see-king" mountains to climb? [18:49] Onoda     That's not bad at all! [18:51] Onoda     But, an animal... A name with a     bug in it would have been nice. [18:56] Shinkai     No, the supreme king of the mountain,     the ruler of its peak. [19:02] Onoda     The king? [19:05] Int_Onoda     Mountain King? [19:07] Shinkai     You're strong. [19:10] Shinkai     Even yesterday, you broke through     several teams, climbed the mountain, [19:15] Shinkai     and caught up to the leading pack at the end. [19:18] Onoda     N-No, Imaizumi-kun just said I could go. [19:21] Onoda     And Teshima-san helped me, too. [19:23] Onoda     I didn't do anything that great. [19:25] Onoda     It was really a team effort... [19:26] Int_Shinkai     So this is the Mountain King. [19:28] Int_Shinkai     A truly self-unaware climber. [19:30] Onoda     But... [19:31] Onoda     I would really prefer an animal nickname. [19:35] Shinkai     That's what you want? [19:36] Guy     Hey, #16 from Hakone Academy and     the Mountain King are talking! [19:40] Guy     Do they know each other?     Let's get a picture! [19:44] Int_Onoda     So close! [19:46] Shinkai     I don't want people talking     about this, so I'll be going. [19:49] Shinkai     Let's talk on the road. [19:54] Onoda     Um, Shinkai-kun.... [19:57] Shinkai     Oh, yeah. You didn't give me     an answer to my challenge. [20:00] Shinkai     It's "yes," right? [20:02] Onoda     Oh, not that. [20:03] Onoda     Do you have a nickname, too? [20:09] Shinkai     Yes, I do. It's not that famous yet, though. [20:19] Shinkai     The Peak Hornet. [20:24] Onoda     Peak... Hornet? [20:29] Shinkai     It'll hurt if I sting you. [20:35] Naruko     Onoda-kun, time to go! [20:37] Imaizumi     We'll lose our warm-up time. [20:39] Onoda     Oh, right. [20:43] Int_Onoda     Shinkai Yuto-kun... He seems strong. [20:49] Int_Onoda     Sorry, Shinkai-kun, but I can't race you. [20:54] Int_Onoda     Teshima-san told me this morning.

[06:08] (Flashback) Teshima     Let's go over the second day's course. [06:10] (Flashback) Teshima     The race starts at yesterday's finish line. [06:13] (Flashback) Teshima     We'll ride north on National Route 120, [06:16] (Flashback) Teshima     which cuts through Senjougahara     at 1,400 meters above sea level. [06:19] (Flashback) Teshima     The long, winding climb begins shortly     after the starting line, [06:23] (Flashback) Teshima     and rises to approximately 1,800 meters. [06:25] (Flashback) Teshima     The road leads to the Konsei Pass      and the Konsei Tunnel. [06:29] (Flashback) Teshima     After clearing the pass,     we'll enter a long downhill. [06:34] (Flashback) Teshima     Past the ski slope and lake is     a downhill-sloping flat road. [06:38] (Flashback) Teshima     We'll pass by the scenic Fukiware Falls, [06:41] (Flashback) Teshima     through Numata City where      Route 120 ends, then keep on riding. [06:46] (Flashback) Teshima     It's the longest stage of the three-day race. [06:50] (Flashback) Teshima     Imaizumi, meet up with Naruko immediately. [06:52] (Flashback) Both     Yes, sir. [06:53] (Flashback) Teshima     The rest of us will follow. [06:56] (Flashback) Teshima     The mountains begin shortly after we start. [06:58] (Flashback) Teshima     Onoda... [07:00] (Flashback) Teshima     Climb as hard as you can and     catch up to Imaizumi and Naruko! [07:03] (Flashback) Onoda     Yes, sir! [07:05] (Flashback) Onoda     Those are practically the     same orders I got last year. [07:10] (Flashback) Teshima     To be honest, Sohoku is barely hanging on. [07:13] (Flashback) Teshima     But we have two advantages     going into the second day. [07:19] Fan 1     It's the leading pack! [07:21] Fan 2     Two Sohoku riders are in front! [07:24] (Flashback) Teshima     First, we have two guys in the front. [07:26] (Flashback) Teshima     Imaizumi and Naruko had nearly     the same times yesterday. [07:30] (Flashback) Teshima     They'll be able to meet up immediately. [07:32] (Flashback) Teshima     Together, they'll be able to     keep the other teams in check. [07:36] (Flashback) Teshima     And if they use a rotation,      they can conserve their strength. [07:39] (Flashback) Teshima     In other words, we can move     the front at our own pace. [07:44] Naruko     Now this makes it easy to ride. [07:46] Naruko     Try to catch up quickly, Teshima-san! [07:49] (Flashback) Teshima     The other advantage is... [07:53] Sakamichi     We've entered the mountains! [07:55] Sakamichi     I'm moving up! [07:56] Teshima     We're counting on you, Onoda! [07:59] (Flashback) Teshima     Our other advantage isn't certain. [08:02] (Flashback) Teshima     It depends on what Hakone Academy does. [08:04] (Flashback) Teshima     If Hakone Academy slows its pace     when we enter the mountains, [08:07] (Flashback) Teshima     move up and pedal as hard as you can. [08:10] (Flashback) Teshima     It'll be our chance to get     ahead of Hakone Academy. [08:14] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy isn't slowing down. [08:16] Teshima     Not yet. [08:17] Kaburagi     Teshima-san, weren't your     orders this morning too vague? [08:22] Kaburagi     Move up if Hakone Academy slows down? [08:24] Kaburagi     Why would they ever do that? [08:29] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is accelerating! [08:31] Teshima     Don't fall behind, Onoda! [08:32] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [08:37] Teshima     If we fall behind now,     having two riders in front [08:40] Teshima     and our other chances will go up in smoke! [08:50] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is accelerating again! [08:52] Teshima     Don't let them get away, Onoda! [08:53] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [08:57] Teshima     Soon. They'll slow down soon. [09:01] Teshima     That's what I would do. [09:03] Teshima     We need to make them slow down! [09:05] Teshima     Try to get ahead of Hakone Academy,     even if it's just for a second! [09:07] Teshima     Once we make it past that turn... [09:11] Teshima     Pull as hard as you can! [09:12] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [09:25] Sakamichi     They... [09:26] Teshima     They slowed down! [09:29] Kaburagi     You can't be serious! [09:30] Kaburagi     What's going on? Are they already exhausted? [09:32] Aoyagi     No! [09:33] Teshima     Go, Onoda! [09:34] Teshima     Now's our chance to get ahead! [09:36] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [09:37] Kaburagi     They actually slowed down. [09:39] Teshima     It's what I would do. [09:41] Teshima     Hakone Academy has one more,     Kuroda, left on their team! [09:45] Teshima     Kuroda didn't move for a while after     he fell before the finish line. [09:50] Teshima     He finished after we did. [09:54] Teshima     Kuroda is part of Hakone     Academy's chain of command. [09:57] Teshima     They'll want him to ride with them. [09:59] Kaburagi     Wow... [10:01] Teshima     That's how I knew they would slow down. [10:03] Teshima     If we pass Hakone Academy     and keep up this pace, [10:05] Teshima     Sohoku will have an overwhelming advantage! [10:08] Sakamichi     Amazing. [10:09] Sakamichi     The first day's results     have given us an advantage. [10:14] Kaburagi     I thought they were exhausted. [10:22] Kaburagi     Whoops! [10:24] Kaburagi     I spaced out. [10:25] Kaburagi     I could never fall behind here. [10:31] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, is this pace okay? [10:35] Sakamichi     We'll be able to group up      with the others soon. [10:37] Teshima     Yeah. Keep it up, Onoda! [10:45] Kaburagi     Huh? What? [10:52] Teshima     Onoda, let's switch. [10:53] Onoda     Yes, sir. [10:58] Teshima     We can stay ahead of them while     they're picking up Kuroda! [11:01] Teshima     Let's get our team together before they do! [11:03] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [11:04] Teshima     What's wrong, Kaburagi? [11:06] Teshima     I can't hear you! [11:07] Teshima     Are you keeping— [11:11] Kaburagi     What is it? [11:14] Kaburagi     I answered. [11:16] Kaburagi     We're headed for the front, right? [11:18] Kaburagi     Let's get ahead of      Hakone Academy and that pig. [11:21] Teshima     All right. I like your enthusiasm. [11:23] Teshima     It'll be hard, but make sure you keep up. [11:26] Kaburagi     Who do you think you're talking to? [11:28] Kaburagi     I'm the genius all-rounder Kaburagi Issa! [11:31] Teshima     Sounds promising. [11:35] Kaburagi     That was close. [11:36] Kaburagi     I couldn't keep up with the pace we're     keeping to pull ahead of Hakone Academy. [11:40] Kaburagi     Someone as great as me... [11:43] Kaburagi     Maybe I'm not in top shape. [11:46] Kaburagi     I feel out of sync. [11:47] Kaburagi     I did earlier, too. [11:49] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Huh? What? [11:52] (Flashback) Kaburagi     What? [11:53] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Why are my feet on the ground? [11:55] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I can't get left behind here. [11:57] (Flashback) Kaburagi     This isn't good. [11:58] Kaburagi     I'm Kaburagi Issa, the man who     will make Sohoku stronger. [12:02] Kaburagi     I'm secretly aiming to stand on the     highest point of the final winner's podium. [12:08] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Damn it! [12:14] Kaburagi     It's so tough, I couldn't     respond to Teshima-san. [12:18] Aoyagi     Are you keeping up? [12:20] Aoyagi     It seemed like you were falling behind. [12:22] Kaburagi     What? You must be seeing things! [12:24] Kaburagi     Are you sure you don't need glasses? [12:25] Aoyagi     I see. [12:29] Kaburagi     I'm glad Aoyagi-san's an idiot. [12:31] Kaburagi     I just have to make it     to the top of the pass. [12:34] Kaburagi     Keep at it. You'll be okay. [12:37] Kaburagi     They won't be able to group up with     third-year Kuroda that quickly, anyway. [12:44] Rider 1     Hakone Academy's fallen back to the pack? [12:47] Rider 2     What's going on? [12:47] Rider 2     Is someone not feeling well? [12:49] Rider 3     Doesn't look that way to me. [12:52] Rider 4     Are they waiting for #12 so their     whole team can ride together? [12:55] Rider 5     So they slowed down and     fell back to the pack? [13:00] Izumida     Everyone's here now. [13:02] Izumida     Let's go. [13:03] Izumida     Abs ready... [13:05] Izumida     Go! [13:06] Rider 3     Hakone Academy's charging ahead! [13:08] Rider 3     They're fast! [13:08] Rider 4     There's still only five of them,     but it's like all six of them are there! [13:13] Rider 6     The second day's going to get crazy. [13:15] Rider 6     Sohoku's trying to stay ahead as four! [13:17] Rider 6     Hakone Academy's chasing from behind as five! [13:23] Kaburagi     I'm okay now. I've gotten used to the pace. [13:26] Kaburagi     I won't fall behind. [13:28] Kaburagi     I just have to keep climbing. [13:33] Kaburagi     Please slow down a little... [13:36] Aoyagi     Are you okay, Kaburagi? [13:37] Aoyagi     You look pale. [13:39] Kaburagi     What? I'm fine. [13:41] Kaburagi     Maybe it's the light. [13:42] Kaburagi     Seriously, I'm great. [13:45] Kaburagi     Piece of cake. [13:48] Kaburagi     I can't say it. [13:50] Kaburagi     I can't ask them to lower the pace. [13:53] Kaburagi     It would be too lame. [13:56] Kuroda     Sorry, Touichirou. [13:58] Izumida     We only did what made sense, Yuki. [14:01] Izumida     We're stronger this way! [14:03] Manami     Welcome back, Kuroda-san. [14:05] Kuroda     Thanks, Manami. Have you been good? [14:07] Doubashi     Don't drawl. [14:09] Doubashi     You're not serious enough, Manami. [14:12] Izumida     It's rising. [14:13] Izumida     Just having Yuki around     raises the team's morale. [14:17] Izumida     Think you've gotten ahead of us, Teshima-kun? [14:21] Izumida     Did you think you'd have an     advantage if you caught up first? [14:26] Izumida     Too bad. [14:28] Izumida     You're not the ones who will     catch up to the front first. [14:32] Izumida     Calm down, Frank. [14:34] Izumida     It's a long ten-kilometer     climb to the Konsei Pass. [14:38] Izumida     How long can you stay ahead? [14:40] Izumida     Or... [14:43] Izumida     Soon? [14:49] Kaburagi     Damn, no way! Hakone Academy? [14:51] Kaburagi     No! No! [14:54] Kaburagi     Kaburagi Issa, you left     Hakone Academy behind! [14:57] Kaburagi     Don't let them pass you! [15:01] Kaburagi     What am I doing? What am I doing? [15:04] Kaburagi     Damn it. [15:05] Kaburagi     I suddenly felt tired and     fell behind the team. [15:08] Kaburagi     I only meant to rest for a second,     but I stepped off my bike and stopped. [15:13] Kaburagi     If I get left behind Hakone Academy,      my race will be over! [15:17] Kaburagi     No! [15:19] Kaburagi     It's not over yet! [15:22] Kaburagi     Crap! This isn't good! [15:24] Kaburagi     That's what my instincts are telling me! [15:26] Kaburagi     I don't have time to worry     about Sohoku or Hakone Academy. [15:29] Kaburagi     Jump on the wheel in front of you. [15:31] Kaburagi     Then you'll make it to the front. [15:36] Kaburagi     I can do it! [15:40] Kaburagi     The pig's wheel... [15:48] Kaburagi     I have a request, pig. [15:50] Kaburagi     Take me to the front. [15:54] Kaburagi     I'm your enemy. [15:55] Kaburagi     I know you don't like having me behind you. [15:57] Kaburagi     But... [15:58] Kaburagi     I don't want it to end yet! [16:01] Kaburagi     Let me ride here. [16:03] Kaburagi     Please, pig! [16:07] Doubashi     That's your pride? [16:10] Doubashi     Sticking to your opponent's behind like crap, [16:14] Doubashi     you want an easy ride to the best part,      so you can fight against us? [16:19] Doubashi     Does your pride permit that? [16:22] Kaburagi     No! Of course not! [16:25] Kaburagi     But this is the only way! [16:27] Kaburagi     I don't want to do this! [16:28] Kaburagi     But my limbs are numb and won't     move the way I want them to! [16:32] Kaburagi     I want to keep riding in the Inter-High! [16:34] Kaburagi     Please! [16:38] Doubashi     Then don't bother. [16:39] Doubashi     You wouldn't be able to keep up     with Hakone Academy's pace anyway. [16:45] Doubashi     You're a first-year, right? [16:47] Doubashi     I'm a second-year. [16:48] Doubashi     We'll race again next year     in a head-to-head battle! [16:53] Kaburagi     Hey, wait! [16:55] Kaburagi     Wait, pig! [16:58] Doubashi     Bowing your head to your enemy, [17:00] Doubashi     abandoning your pride, and frantically     searching for a lifeline... [17:04] Doubashi     I don't mind guys like you. [17:08] Yuto     #6, Sohoku's Kaburagi Issa, has fallen. [17:11] Izumida     Yeah. [17:13] Izumida     It only took a second. [17:17] Sakamichi     Kabu... [17:20] Teshima     I was so focused on catching up,      I didn't notice. [17:24] Teshima     How long? [17:25] Teshima     How long has Kaburagi been missing? [17:28] Teshima     Did he fall behind on the way here? [17:31] Teshima     What are you doing, Teshima Junta? [17:33] Sakamichi     M-Maybe there's something     wrong with his bike. [17:36] Sakamichi     Like a flat tire. [17:37] Teshima     No, then he'd shout. [17:39] Teshima     We've done it countless times in practice. [17:41] Teshima     I told him to report any issues. [17:44] Sakamichi     M-Maybe he's not feeling well. [17:48] Sakamichi     But during this morning's meeting... [17:51] (Flashback) Teshima     It'll affect our strategy. [17:53] (Flashback) Teshima     Notify me if you don't feel well. [17:57] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Piece of cake. [17:59] Teshima     He likes to show off. [18:02] Teshima     He was just acting fine in front of us. [18:05] Sakamichi     He could've told me or Imaizumi-kun... [18:10] Teshima     Koga said lone first-years try to take on     everything themselves at the Inter-High. [18:17] Sakamichi     Koga-san... [18:19] Teshima     Not having a classmate you can talk to     and being a first-year on top of that [18:26] Teshima     puts an incredible amount of pressure on you. [18:29] Teshima     So much is expected of them. [18:30] Teshima     They're given orders, made to fight in     an Inter-High they know nothing about, [18:34] Teshima     and pushed to their physical     and mental limits. [18:37] Teshima     But they still desperately work     to meet expectations. [18:42] (Flashback) Koga     That's how it is. [18:44] (Flashback) Koga     They're so overwhelmed,      they don't listen to their own bodies. [18:48] (Flashback) Koga     They only notice later,      once they've suffered damage. [18:51] (Flashback) Koga     Just like I did. [18:53] (Flashback) Koga     Watch Kaburagi closely. [18:57] (Flashback) Koga     He's a reckless idiot. [19:00] (Flashback) Koga     He's just like I used to be. [19:03] Sakamichi     When Koga-san was a first-year, he... [19:07] Teshima     After everything Koga said, [19:10] Teshima     I took my eyes off him during a moment as     important as the start of the second day. [19:14] Teshima     What am I doing? [19:16] Sakamichi     As a first-year, Kaburagi-kun was     doing the best he could on his own. [19:21] Sakamichi     In that case... [19:24] Sakamichi     We have to go help him! [19:27] Sakamichi     Let me help him, Teshima-san! [19:28] Sakamichi     I'll drop back and bring     him back to the team! [19:31] Teshima     Don't go, Onoda! [19:36] Teshima     Don't. You can't fall back. [19:38] Teshima     I won't allow you to help him. [19:39] Sakamichi     What? [19:40] Teshima     We'll catch up to the front. [19:42] Teshima     That's our top priority! [19:45] Teshima     We were lucky to get ahead     of Hakone Academy. Lucky! [19:49] Teshima     We'll use this opportunity to     get our team together first! [19:53] Teshima     If Hakone Academy gets all six members     together first, we won't stand a chance! [19:57] Sakamichi     I'm saying I'll go alone! [20:00] Sakamichi     I promise I'll bring him back! [20:02] Sakamichi     So— [20:02] Teshima     No! [20:04] Teshima     It was the second day when you brought     Tadokoro-san back to the team last year, too. [20:08] Teshima     Is that why you think you can do it? [20:10] Teshima     It's different now, Onoda.      Get that through your head. [20:14] Teshima     You're in a different     position from last year. [20:18] Teshima     You're #1, last year's champion! [20:21] Teshima     Not having #1 leading your     team is like night and day! [20:27] Teshima     Who will stop Manami if he attacks? [20:29] Teshima     Who will chase after Shinkai if he attacks? [20:32] Teshima     Some moves can be stopped     just by having #1 there. [20:35] Teshima     You have a job to do. [20:38] Teshima     You can't do what you want     like you did last year. [20:44] Sakamichi     Then Kaburagi-kun... [20:46] Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun, who worked so hard     during the first day's sprint... [20:51] Teshima     We'll leave him behind. [20:55] Sakamichi     Let's at least wait! [20:56] Sakamichi     We can drop our pace,      so Kaburagi-kun can catch up! [20:59] Teshima     We can't. [21:00] Sakamichi     We can! [21:00] Teshima     No. We can't, Onoda. [21:04] Teshima     Look. Hakone Academy's right behind us! [21:12] Teshima     Sorry, Kaburagi. [21:14] Teshima     You worked so hard on the     first day as a first-year. [21:19] Teshima     We'll catch up to the rest of the team! [21:20] Teshima     Eyes forward, everyone! [21:23] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy passed Kaburagi-kun. [21:27] Sakamichi     He must be in pretty bad shape. [21:29] Sakamichi     I need to go help him. [21:31] Sakamichi     But I can't. [21:32] Teshima     Face forward! [21:34] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [21:35] Aoyagi     Junta, I just remembered     I have something to do. [21:40] Aoyagi     Can I drop back? [21:45] Aoyagi     I forgot an idiot behind us. [23:26] Doubashi     Shut up!

[02:03] Teshima     Dropping back is easy. [02:05] Teshima     But bringing someone back with     you takes twice as much strength. [02:10] Teshima     It's a gamble. [02:12] Teshima     And we're 1,800 meters up in the mountains. [02:16] Teshima     You're a sprinter. You can't do it.

[03:06] Aoyagi     You must always be prepared     for your plans to fail. [03:10] Teshima     We're third-years. This is our last race. [03:14] Teshima     If you can't make it back, this will     be the last time we ride together. SIGN    Certain [03:22] Teshima     Thanks for riding with me these     last three years, Hajime. [03:27] Teshima     Our two-man team was the greatest. [03:35] Aoyagi     Yeah, Junta. [03:39] Both     I made it this far because of you. [03:44] Teshima     Our two-man team... [03:46] Teshima     ...is dissolved! [03:47] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san! [03:49] Aoyagi     Don't look back, Onoda. [03:50] Aoyagi     Ride with Junta and reach the     front before Hakone Academy. [03:54] Aoyagi     Support Imaizumi and Naruko as best you can. [03:57] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [03:58] Aoyagi     That's your job! [04:01] Sakamichi     Yes! [04:02] Aoyagi     Junta, tell me one last thing. [04:06] Aoyagi     Those seven more reasons my choice     is reckless... Is there an eighth? [04:11] Teshima     What? The eighth? [04:13] Teshima     There's... [04:16] Teshima     There is one. [04:18] Teshima     It's a tiny shred of hope! [04:24] Aoyagi     Then pray the eighth      turns out to be true, Junta! [04:28] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san's been swallowed     by Hakone Academy! [04:32] Teshima     I know! Face forward! [04:34] Teshima     We'll catch them first! Raise the pace! [04:37] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [04:39] Yuto     Sohoku's second rider has fallen. [04:47] Kaburagi     Damn it! I feel weak. [04:50] Kaburagi     Why? [04:56] Kaburagi     My limbs are heavy. [04:57] Kaburagi     My pedals are heavy. [05:00] Kaburagi     They've never felt this heavy before. [05:02] Kaburagi     Come on. Come on, strength! [05:05] Obori     I'm Fukuoka Josei's Obori! [05:09] Obori     You were showing off during yesterday's     sprint, Sohoku's Kaburagi! [05:13] Obori     And now you're mine! [05:14] Kaburagi     You can't catch me! [05:16] Obori     I will! [05:22] Teshima     Kaburagi probably won't be able to     group up with Aoyagi right away. [05:26] Sakamichi     What? [05:28] Teshima     He's too far behind. [05:30] Teshima     He may be trying to rescue him,      but at the very least, [05:33] Teshima     Kaburagi will have to reach Aoyagi on his own. [05:37] Teshima     If his spirit is broken, and he's     stopped moving, they'll never meet up. [05:42] Sakamichi     B-But... [05:44] Teshima     He'll be fine if someone's     there to give him a push. [05:48] Teshima     But that won't happen. [05:50] Teshima     Before we started, nobody noticed      that he wasn't feeling well. [05:57] Kaburagi     What am I going to do? [06:00] Kaburagi     Is this the end already? [06:04] Koga     Don't stop, Kaburagi! [06:06] Kaburagi     Huh? [06:08] Koga     Keep moving forward! [06:12] Koga     Put your feet on the pedals. [06:14] Koga     The race isn't over yet. [06:17] Kaburagi     Koga-san? [06:19] Kaburagi     Huh? What? [06:21] Kaburagi     What are you doing here? [06:23] Kaburagi     Did you warp here? [06:24] Kaburagi     Cast a magic spell? [06:26] Koga     There's no time to talk. [06:28] Koga     Focus on the race. [06:29] Koga     Put your feet on the pedals. [06:32] Koga     Move forward, Kaburagi! [06:33] Koga     Don't stop! [06:36] Koga     You must always move forward in a road race. [06:39] Koga     Standing still is the same as forfeiting. [06:42] Koga     If you abandon the Inter-High now... [06:45] Koga     I'll make sure you pay for it! [06:47] Kaburagi     Crap. He's serious. [06:50] Kaburagi     He wholeheartedly means     everything he's saying. [06:53] Kaburagi     It has weight. [06:55] Kaburagi     I can feel it all the way to my fingertips. [07:04] Kaburagi     But... [07:06] Koga     Move! [07:07] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [07:08] Koga     No matter what happens,      keep moving forward, Kaburagi! [07:12] Kaburagi     Yes! [07:13] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Koga-san, the van is leaving soon.

Why do you want us     to leave without you? [07:25] (Flashback) Koga     There's something bothering me. [07:27] (Flashback) Koga     You take command of the feed zone, Sugimoto. [07:30] (Flashback) Sugimoto     What? Wait a minute. [07:33] Sugimoto     What do you... [07:33] Koga     "I've been worried about     Kaburagi since this morning." [07:37] Koga     It'd be a disaster if I said that,     and it turned out to be true. [07:41] (Flashback) Toji     You're staying? [07:43] (Flashback) Koga     I imagined the worst case scenario. [07:46] (Flashback) Toji     For the team, huh? [07:48] (Flashback) Toji     If you stay now, you won't     make it to the feed zone. [07:54] (Flashback) Koga     Sorry for being stubborn. [07:59] Koga     Let this hike have been a     waste of time, Kaburagi. [08:09] Koga     But... [08:11] Koga     If you can't move... [08:15] Koga     Then I'll push you! [08:18] Kaburagi     A short push is fine, [08:20] Kaburagi     but a long push from anyone other than     another rider is against the rules. [08:23] Kaburagi     I'll be penalized. [08:24] Koga     Then I'll push little by little. [08:26] Koga     That shouldn't be a problem. [08:28] Koga     Supporting you as best we can is our job! [08:33] Kaburagi     Koga-san... [08:35] Koga     Sohoku still has a chance. [08:41] Kaburagi     Sorry, Koga-san! Thank you! [08:43] Koga     So you can say "thank you," Kaburagi. [08:48] Koga     The old me thought it was natural. [08:51] Koga     That Teshima and Aoyagi     were assigned to support us [08:54] Koga     because they didn't work hard enough. [08:56] Koga     That's not how it is. [08:58] Koga     We're able to move forward     because we all support each other. [09:01] Koga     Believe that you'll rejoin the team! [09:05] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [09:06] Koga     Imagine yourself returning     to form as you ride! [09:09] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [09:10] Koga     Keep racing and grow with     everything you've got! [09:16] Koga     I know you can do it! [09:18] Koga     You have the most potential! [09:20] Kaburagi     Huh? [09:24] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [09:26] Kaburagi     Imagine, imagine, imagine! [09:30] Kaburagi     Imagine your recovery! [09:32] Ref     Slow riders, please move to the left! [09:36] Kaburagi     Huh? [09:38] Ref     The pack is coming through! [09:42] Koga     The pack... [09:48] Kaburagi     The pack... passed us. [09:52] Koga     In an instant... [09:54] Koga     Even the pack passed him. [10:05] Koga     Someone stopped! [10:09] Koga     Go, Kaburagi! You can still make it! [10:12] Koga     Your teammate is waiting for you! [10:13] Koga     Tie your sash of wishes to his! [10:16] Kaburagi     Huh? [10:18] Kaburagi     He's right. I can see him. [10:20] Kaburagi     He's wearing a Sohoku jersey! [10:25] Koga     Go, Kaburagi! [10:27] Koga     Connect that thread of hope! [10:34] Kaburagi     Koga-san, thank you! [10:37] Koga     Who could have imagined it? [10:40] Koga     That as hands reached out to catch falling     drops of hope, some would fall through... [10:49] Koga     And another hand would     reach out to catch them. [10:54] Kaburagi     Thank you for waiting for me     when I'm in such bad shape. [11:00] Kaburagi     Now I might be able to return to the team. [11:03] Kaburagi     My Inter-High... [11:06] Kaburagi     ...isn't over yet! [11:08] Kaburagi     Who is it? Teshima-san? [11:10] Kaburagi     Onoda-san? [11:15] Kaburagi     Huh? [11:18] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san? [11:19] Aoyagi     That's right. [11:21] Kaburagi     Seriously? [11:24] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san... [11:26] Kaburagi     You were riding in front of us during     the chase, so we could reach the front. [11:33] Kaburagi     But you're... [11:35] Aoyagi     That's right. [11:36] Kaburagi     You're a third-year.      This is your last Inter-high. [11:40] Kaburagi     But you're here now, which means... [11:44] Aoyagi     That's right. [11:47] Kaburagi     You fell behind the team, too? [11:53] Kaburagi     Did you fall behind the team, too? [11:56] Aoyagi     No! [11:57] Aoyagi     Can't you tell from the situation? [11:59] Aoyagi     I was waiting for you! [12:01] Kaburagi     The situation? [12:03] Aoyagi     Wait. Why do you look like     you feel sorry for me? [12:06] Kaburagi     Oh, no. [12:07] Kaburagi     I understand. I get it. [12:10] Kaburagi     You don't want to admit that     you fell behind the team. [12:14] Kaburagi     You're desperately trying to save face. [12:16] Aoyagi     Does he really not get it? [12:17] Aoyagi     He doesn't get it. [12:19] Kaburagi     I was hoping you were     Onoda-san or Teshima-san. [12:23] Aoyagi     Who says that to someone's face? [12:26] Aoyagi     It doesn't matter. Follow me. [12:31] Aoyagi     Did Koga push him? [12:34] Aoyagi     You're the only one on     Sohoku who saw this coming. [12:38] Aoyagi     You're the greatest support     Sohoku has ever had, Kimitaka. [12:44] Aoyagi     Let's go, Kaburagi! [12:45] Aoyagi     We're going to reach the     team at the front together! [12:48] Kaburagi     Seriously? [12:50] Kaburagi     You and me? [12:52] Aoyagi     That's right. [12:53] Aoyagi     It'll be hard, but we'll do it. [12:55] Aoyagi     So follow me. Don't fall behind. [13:00] Aoyagi     No complaining. [13:03] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [13:04] Kaburagi     What's with this intensity? [13:08] Aoyagi     Supersonic Oxygen Muscle Climb! [13:15] Aoyagi     He's falling behind. [13:18] Aoyagi     He still doesn't feel well? [13:20] Aoyagi     If I raise my pace,     Kaburagi will fall behind. [13:25] Aoyagi     He can't do what should be easy for him. [13:27] Aoyagi     What should I do? [13:31] Kaburagi     You're knitting your brows. [13:32] Kaburagi     You look pained, Aoyagi. [13:36] Kaburagi     You called it your "Muscle Climb,"     but your pace has fallen so quickly. [13:41] Aoyagi     Whose fault is that? [13:44] Kaburagi     Then I don't have a choice, Aoyagi! [13:49] Aoyagi     Wh-What? [13:52] Okutani     See that? Sohoku's already     lost two of their riders. [13:55] Kawamoto     They were doing so well yesterday. [13:57] Kawamoto     Maybe they're just not that good this year. [14:00] Yamagiwa     Enough, Kawamoto, Okutani. [14:02] Okutani     Yamagiwa-san... [14:04] Yamagiwa     #4 is trying to bring their      out-of-form #6 back to the team. [14:08] Okutani     What? From back there? [14:10] Kawamoto     But that's impossible. [14:11] Yamagiwa     Maybe. [14:13] Yamagiwa     But last year they won from #170. [14:19] Yamagiwa     I think... [14:21] Yamagiwa     Sohoku might be strongest     when they're facing adversity. [14:28] Kaburagi     I don't have a choice! [14:30] Aoyagi     What are you doing, Kaburagi? [14:32] Aoyagi     Why are you pulling? [14:34] Aoyagi     Fall back! I'll pull! [14:36] Kaburagi     Look at you showing off and pushing yourself. [14:39] Kaburagi     Fine, then. [14:41] Kaburagi     I'll pull, too! [14:43] Aoyagi     Hey, listen! [14:45] Kaburagi     I'm fine. [14:47] Kaburagi     I feel a little better now. [14:51] Kaburagi     Koga-san gave me power. [14:55] Kaburagi     "Grow." [14:56] Kaburagi     "You have great potential." [14:59] Kaburagi     You should quit showing off      and rest behind me, Aoyagi. [15:03] Aoyagi     That's Aoyagi-*san *to you! [15:05] Aoyagi     I'll see how he does and      move up if he drops his pace. [15:12] Aoyagi     Kaburagi's still pulling. [15:17] Aoyagi     Well, well. He's still pulling. [15:20] Kaburagi     You're a lot of trouble, Aoyagi. [15:24] Aoyagi     Huh? He's still pulling? [15:27] Aoyagi     What's going on? [15:30] Aoyagi     He's faster when he's pulling     than when he's being pulled. [15:36] Kaburagi     Are you keeping up, Aoyagi? [15:39] Aoyagi     Yeah. [15:40] Aoyagi     How is this happening? But it's true. [15:44] Aoyagi     I'm a little surprised, though. [15:46] Kaburagi     By what? The view? [15:49] Aoyagi     I've never heard of the one being     rescued pulling for his rescuer. [15:55] Kaburagi     The view is nice. [15:59] Kaburagi     Half of road racing is mental. [16:02] Kaburagi     If your spirit is broken, it's over. [16:04] Kaburagi     But if you have a goal, you can keep moving. [16:08] Kaburagi     He's doing his best to     move forward to help me. [16:14] Kaburagi     He's still confused, though. [16:17] Kaburagi     Aoyagi, how are you feeling? [16:20] Aoyagi     Like I've been saying, I feel great. [16:22] Kaburagi     There you go again. [16:24] Kaburagi     You can be honest with me. [16:27] Aoyagi     In any case, he isn't just an idiot. [16:31] Aoyagi     He's a special idiot! [16:35] Kaburagi     Breathe with me! [16:37] Kaburagi     Ready and... [16:41] Aoyagi     This just might be... [16:47] Kawamoto     But isn't one of Sohoku's     riders out of sorts? [16:50] Yamagiwa     That's right. The unexpected doesn't happen. [16:54] Yamagiwa     If they're able to catch up to the pack, [16:56] Yamagiwa     it'll be in a style that defies common sense. [17:00] Rider A     Someone's coming up from behind! [17:06] Rider B     It's the two Sohoku riders! [17:09] Okutani     Th-The redhead is in front! [17:11] Kawamoto     Isn't it the other way around? [17:12] Kawamoto     Didn't #4 go to save him? [17:18] Kaburagi     I see them! [17:19] Kaburagi     It's the pack that passed us earlier! [17:24] Kaburagi     We caught up to them! [17:26] Aoyagi     He's impressive. [17:28] Aoyagi     Just by imagining he was saving me,      he pulled me until we could see the pack. [17:36] Kaburagi     We're almost there! [17:38] Kaburagi     Once we catch up and enter the pack,     you'll be able to rest, Aoyagi! [17:42] Aoyagi     Yeah, you will. [17:43] Aoyagi     Your speech has gotten really casual. [17:48] Kaburagi     Let us reach them! [17:51] Kaburagi     Docking! [17:53] Rider C     Sohoku returned to the pack! [17:56] Rider D     But they were stopped earlier! Seriously? [17:58] Rider E     Who are those guys? [18:02] Kaburagi     We joined the pack... [18:19] Aoyagi     Did you feel exhausted for a second? [18:22] Kaburagi     What? N-No. [18:24] Kaburagi     I was just looking at a     rare bug on the ground. [18:28] Aoyagi     What kind of bug? [18:29] Kaburagi     Huh? Uh, kinda like a rhinoceros beetle or a      stag beetle. It's called a rhinostag beetle. [18:37] Kaburagi     So he barely made it through the first stage. [18:40] Aoyagi     I'd like to catch up to the team soon, [18:43] Aoyagi     but he's still not in top shape. [18:45] Aoyagi     It'll be easier for him in the pack,     where there's less air resistance. [18:49] Aoyagi     I'll let him rest for a while. [18:51] Kaburagi     Anyway, you should get some rest, Aoyagi. [18:53] Aoyagi     Yeah, you should. [18:56] Aoyagi     But... [18:59] Aoyagi     Let's move up, Kaburagi! [19:01] Kaburagi     Huh? [19:05] Aoyagi     I get it. We're counting our opponents. [19:09] Kaburagi     One, two, three, four,     five, six, seven, eight... [19:11] Aoyagi     I don't see them. [19:13] Aoyagi     Have they already left? [19:15] Kaburagi     Huh? [19:17] Kaburagi     Kyoto Fushimi's not in the pack. [19:20] Aoyagi     His ability to sniff out his     opponents is first rate. [19:25] Kaburagi     This isn't good. [19:28] Kaburagi     Did I notice first? [19:30] Aoyagi     That doesn't matter. [19:31] Kaburagi     So you agree it was me, then? [19:34] Aoyagi     They have #116 this year, too. [19:38] Aoyagi     If they meet up with Midousuji... [19:41] Komari     M-Muscles! [19:44] Aoyagi     Sohoku will be at a massive disadvantage! [19:48] Aoyagi     The other strong teams are missing, too. [19:51] Kaburagi     Then we don't have time to rest, Aoyagi! [19:54] Aoyagi     I could say the same thing to you. [19:57] Kaburagi     We're ditching this pack, Aoyagi! [20:01] Rider C     Sohoku's pulling ahead! [20:12] Aoyagi     Did you see a rare bug? [20:17] Aoyagi     He understands the situation,     but his body won't move. [20:21] Aoyagi     He must be frustrated. [20:24] Aoyagi     Did you see this coming too, Junta? [20:28] Sakamichi     What? They won't be able to escape the pack? [20:31] Teshima     Yeah, even if they do make it to the pack. [20:35] Teshima     Leaving the pack is fairly difficult. [20:39] Teshima     That's reason four of seven     that his choice was reckless. [20:43] Sakamichi     Is it really impossible? [20:47] Teshima     It's a different story if he's     made special preparations. [20:51] Sakamichi     Special preparations? [20:55] Aoyagi     Kaburagi, do you want to leave     the pack, no matter what? [20:59] Kaburagi     Of course, damn it. [21:02] Aoyagi     What if there was a way? [21:04] Kaburagi     Huh? [21:06] Kaburagi     Do you have something? [21:09] Aoyagi     I wasn't expecting to use this here. [21:11] Kaburagi     I'll do anything. [21:13] Kaburagi     Tell me! [21:19] Aoyagi     It's this. [21:21] Kaburagi     G-God's stationery? [21:24] Kaburagi     I knew God would come through. [21:25] Kaburagi     He's written a hint on it. [21:27] Kaburagi     The princess...? [21:31] Aoyagi     Those are the lyrics to a certain song. [21:35] Kaburagi     "You are the princess"? [23:15] Kaburagi     Hikki the Third, grow up big and strong! [23:18] Aoyagi     Hey. [23:20] Kaburagi     Huh? [23:21] Aoyagi     What are you doing? [23:24] Kaburagi     Wait! [23:28] Kaburagi     Hey! What was that for? [23:30] Kaburagi     What about my Hikki-san?

[06:45] Aoyagi     Tadokoro-san used this song     to return to the team! [06:49] Rider 1     One of them started singing. [06:51] Rider 2     What is that? [06:52] Kaburagi     This is embarrassing, Aoyagi-san! [06:54] Kaburagi     Everyone's looking at us! [06:56] Kaburagi     I can't believe you're singing so loudly! [06:58] Aoyagi     Princess, Princess! Princess! [07:01] Aoyagi     I love, love, love you! [07:03] Aoyagi     Princess! Princess! [07:04] Aoyagi     Twinkle, twinkle! [07:05] Kaburagi     Stop, Aoyagi! [07:06] Aoyagi     Even with a spell to make you bigger! [07:07] Kaburagi     Seriously, give me a break! [07:09] Aoyagi     You're still my princess,     you are who you are! [07:11] Kaburagi     Princesses and magic are so lame! [07:16] Aoyagi     That's the most important part. [07:19] Aoyagi     Did you get all that? [07:25] Kaburagi     He's serious... [07:28] Aoyagi     Were you lying when you said you'd     do anything to escape the pack? [07:34] Aoyagi     Would you refuse to sing this song,     even if it increased your chance by 1%? [07:39] Kaburagi     No way! It can't do that! [07:41] Kaburagi     Calm down! [07:42] Kaburagi     It's a song! An anime song, no less! [07:44] Kaburagi     There's no way it'll help! [07:47] Aoyagi     I don't know if it will or won't. [07:49] Aoyagi     But you can't know for     certain until you try it! [07:54] Kaburagi     Sing loudly in the middle of the pack? [07:57] Kaburagi     He's out of his mind! [08:00] Kaburagi     But Aoyagi is serious. [08:03] Kaburagi     How can I know when I haven't tried it? [08:06] Kaburagi     He's right. [08:08] Kaburagi     Damn it! I don't believe this! [08:10] Kaburagi     I don't get it! [08:11] Kaburagi     But remember, this is a note from God. [08:17] Kaburagi     If this will help me move forward... [08:23] Kaburagi     Okay! [08:24] Kaburagi     I'm a man! [08:26] Kaburagi     I'll sing the anime song! [08:29] Kaburagi     As loud as I can! [08:31] Aoyagi     Keep singing! [08:33] Aoyagi     We'll escape the pack! [08:35] Aoyagi     Match your gears and cadence     to the song's rhythm and mine! [08:38] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [08:39] Aoyagi     "Princess, Princess!" [08:41] Aoyagi     Go! [08:42] Kaburagi     Princess, Princess! [08:44] Rider 5     Now they're singing together. [08:46] Rider 6     We're in the middle of a race. [08:48] Kaburagi     Seriously? This is really embarrassing     when you sing it out loud! [08:53] Aoyagi     "Lovely chance pancake girl!" [08:55] Aoyagi     Go! [08:56] Kaburagi     L-Lovely chance pancake girl... [08:59] Kaburagi     Seriously? [09:02] Aoyagi     Okay, one more time from the top! [09:05] Kaburagi     Huh? Uh, yes, sir! [09:07] Kaburagi     We're singing this song more than once? [09:10] Aoyagi     "Princess, Princess!" [09:11] Aoyagi     Go! [09:12] Kaburagi     Princess, Princess! [09:14] Rider 5     Stop, Sohoku. [09:16] Rider 6     My stomach hurts. [09:18] Aoyagi     I love, love, love you! [09:20] Aoyagi     Princess! Princess! [09:21] Kaburagi     I-I love, love, love you! [09:24] Kaburagi     Princess! Princess! [09:26] Kaburagi     Damn. Damn! [09:27] Kaburagi     This is so lame! [09:30] Kaburagi     Singing out loud... [09:31] Kaburagi     This is so embarrassing! [09:34] Aoyagi     "Even with a spell to make you bigger!" [09:39] Kaburagi     But I'm racing right now. [09:42] Aoyagi     "You're still my princess!" [09:45] Aoyagi     Go! [09:47] Kaburagi     Not fighting during a race     would be even lamer! [09:52] Kaburagi     You're still my princess! [09:54] Aoyagi     I can't hear you! [09:55] Aoyagi     You are who you are! [09:58] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [09:59] Kaburagi     You are who you are! [10:01] Rider 7     Sohoku's pulling ahead! [10:02] Rider 7     They're trying to leave? [10:03] Rider 8     There's no way! [10:05] Rider 8     They'll fall back again! [10:06] Aoyagi     Lovely chance pancake girl! [10:10] Kaburagi     Lovely chance pancake... [10:13] Aoyagi     Keep at it, Kaburagi! [10:15] Aoyagi     If you stop pedaling now,      you'll fall back into the pack! [10:19] (Flashback) Tadokoro     The important thing about using      it is to sing the whole thing. [10:25] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I don't know why, but you'll     move farther that way. [10:32] Aoyagi     Kaburagi, focus! [10:34] Aoyagi     Forget what's behind you! [10:36] Aoyagi     Focus on the song! [10:39] Kaburagi     On the song? [10:40] Kaburagi     Your instructions are insane, Aoyagi. [10:43] Kaburagi     But I'll do it if it'll make me move forward! [10:47] Kaburagi     Got it! [10:50] Aoyagi     "Even with a spell to make you bigger!" [10:54] Aoyagi     Go! [10:55] Kaburagi     Even with a spell to make you bigger! [10:59] Aoyagi     "You're still my princess!" [11:01] Aoyagi     Go! [11:02] Kaburagi     You're still my princess! [11:05] Aoyagi     Sing from your stomach! [11:07] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [11:08] Aoyagi     We're breaking through! [11:10] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [11:12] Aoyagi     You are who you are! [11:19] Both     Princess! [11:22] Rider 9     They escaped! [11:24] Rider 10     What was that weird song? [11:27] Aoyagi     Tadokoro-san, the song helped! [11:32] Aoyagi     Just you wait, Junta. [11:34] Aoyagi     I promise I'll bring him back to the team! [11:37] Both     Love Hime, fight! [11:45] Yuto     I see Sohoku in front of us. [11:51] Yuto     Can I go after them? [11:54] Izumida     Yeah. Take them out. [12:03] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, they're coming! [12:05] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is closing in on us! [12:08] Teshima     Yeah, but Imaizumi and Naruko are close. [12:12] Teshima     If we keep going, we should reach them first! [12:15] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [12:16] Teshima     We'll meet up with them as     long as nothing happens. [12:22] Yuto     In that case, I'm off, Izumida-san! [12:26] Izumida     Yeah. They're trying to     reach the front before us. [12:31] Izumida     Go shatter their spirits... [12:34] Izumida     Shinkai Yuto! [12:37] Yuto     I'm finally coming, Mountain King. [12:47] Yuto     To my race against you! [12:53] Doubashi     How can he climb so fast? [12:55] Doubashi     He got 200 meters ahead     in the blink of an eye. [12:58] Doubashi     Does that idiot always climb     so fast when he's alone? [13:03] Doubashi     Climbers creep me out. [13:08] Yuto     I'll catch up to you. [13:10] Yuto     Soon! [13:12] Sakamichi     One Hakone Academy rider is coming! [13:16] Sakamichi     What is this? His pressure is incredible... [13:19] Sakamichi     Who is it? [13:22] Sakamichi     That's... [13:25] Sakamichi     #16! It's Shinkai-kun! [13:28] Yuto     Gotcha! [13:31] Sakamichi     He's fast! [13:32] Teshima     Is he's trying to catch up     to the front by himself? [13:35] Teshima     No, those eyes... [13:37] Yuto     Yeah! [13:38] Teshima     He's trying to take us out! [13:42] Teshima     We don't have a choice. [13:44] Teshima     Go, Onoda! Alone! [13:46] Sakamichi     What? [13:48] Teshima     They're trying to use #16 to     stop us and reach the front first! [13:53] Teshima     You have to go on alone! [13:55] Sakamichi     What about you? [13:58] Teshima     I'll stop him! I'll form a wall! [14:03] Teshima     Ride as hard as you can to     reach Imaizumi and Naruko! [14:10] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [14:10] Teshima     Go, Onoda! [14:14] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [14:18] Teshima     #16 is coming. [14:20] Teshima     He didn't do much yesterday. [14:23] Teshima     His strength is unknown. [14:25] Teshima     But he's a regular on Hakone     Academy's team as a first-year. [14:30] Teshima     That alone tells me he's unbelievably strong. [14:34] Teshima     And he's the younger     brother of Shinkai Hayato, [14:37] Teshima     Hakone Academy's ace sprinter last year. [14:40] Teshima     The data we have on him is     so good it makes me sick. [14:45] Teshima     But... [14:47] Teshima     I'll stop him! [14:48] Teshima     I've teamed up with Aoyagi countless     times to claim the winner's podium! [14:53] Teshima     Run, Onoda! [14:56] Teshima     I'll form a wall and stop him! [15:03] Teshima     What happened? [15:04] Teshima     He was heading straight forward. [15:07] Teshima     But he changed his course at     the last second to pass me. [15:10] Teshima     On top of that, he drove his wheel towards     the right and faked a pass on my right side. [15:20] Teshima     His bike control is unbelievably fast! [15:23] Teshima     But we have our own plans! [15:28] Teshima     I've heard about him at races     from other guys from Kanagawa. [15:31] Teshima     They call Shinkai Hayato's brother the     Peak Hornet, the hornet of the summit. [15:39] Teshima     So it's his agile movements     that make him like a hornet. [15:43] Teshima     You're not going anywhere! [15:47] Teshima     I'm the man who climbs     through sheer effort... [15:50] Teshima     Teshima Junta! [15:55] Teshima     He's close! [15:57] Teshima     He's too close! [16:01] Teshima     The shoulder? [16:02] Teshima     Whoa! [16:05] Yuto     Later. [16:07] Teshima     Damn it. [16:12] Teshima     He's gone. [16:14] Teshima     I don't know what happened     for a second there. [16:17] Teshima     My entire body was pushed     off the asphalt. [16:21] Teshima     His speed... [16:23] Teshima     His timing... [16:24] Teshima     In the time it took me to do     one thing, he was doing five. [16:29] Teshima     Not only that... [16:31] Teshima     But he did it without mercy or hesitation. [16:34] Yuto     #5 has fallen. [16:37] Teshima     That's the Peak Hornet... [16:40] Teshima     Damn. [16:42] Teshima     Watch out, Onoda! [16:51] Yuto     It's already time for our race. [16:55] Sakamichi     Shinkai-kun? [16:56] Sakamichi     Huh? What's he doing there? [16:59] Yuto     Let's race, Mountain King. [17:04] Yuto     Is your answer "yes"? [17:08] Sakamichi     Teshima-san said he'd stop him, but... [17:12] Sakamichi     Um, Teshi— [17:14] Yuto     Teshi? [17:16] Yuto     Oh, Teshima-san. You mean #5? [17:20] Yuto     He... [17:24] Yuto     ...fell behind while chatting. [17:27] Yuto     I broke past him easily. [17:32] Sakamichi     He caught up to me! [17:34] Sakamichi     He's close! [17:35] Yuto     Until we reach them. [17:37] Sakamichi     Huh? [17:38] Yuto     We'll see who reaches the front first. [17:40] Yuto     How does that sound? [17:43] Yuto     You're going to reach them     before Hakone Academy, right? [17:47] Yuto     Aren't those your orders? [17:49] Yuto     Forget about rules and games. [17:52] Yuto     You understand, don't you? [17:55] Yuto     This is a race. [17:58] Yuto     Your strategy requires you to     stop me and reach your team first. [18:04] Yuto     Otherwise, your loss is certain. [18:10] Yuto     You have no choice but to fight me. [18:14] Yuto     Now, let's race. Your answer... [18:18] Yuto     It's "yes," isn't it? [18:20] Sakamichi     When did he... [18:24] Yuto     The race has already begun! [18:29] Sakamichi     He's fast! [18:32] Sakamichi     He's gone. [18:34] Sakamichi     I need to catch up. [18:36] Sakamichi     Shinkai-kun... [18:38] Sakamichi     He's fast. He's strong. [18:41] Sakamichi     But... [18:42] (Flashback) Teshima     You have to go on alone! [18:44] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [18:45] (Flashback) Teshima     You're #1. [18:48] (Flashback) Teshima     You have a job to do. [18:50] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [18:52] (Flashback) Aoyagi     What did you learn from Makishima-san? [18:54] Sakamichi     Yes, sir!

[19:06] Sakamichi     I'll pass you and reach the front! [19:10] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Think you can't do what you did last year? [19:15] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Of course not. [19:17] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Because you've gotten stronger. [19:23] Sakamichi     Stronger! [19:25] (Flashback) Kikuta     I'm Kikuta from class 4.     I'm on the baseball team. [19:27] (Flashback) Kikuta     Let's race. [19:29] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? [19:30] (Flashback) Kikuta     The bicycle club's the national     champion, right? That's amazing. [19:34] (Flashback) Kikuta     But I'm a regular and the     king of stolen bases. [19:36] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I-I'll pass. I doubt I'd stand a chance.

[19:46] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? B-But I... [19:48] (Flashback) Boy 1     Ready... [19:49] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Uh, but... [19:50] (Flashback) Boy 1     Go! [19:57] Sakamichi     I always flinch when I hear the word "race." [20:10] (Flashback) Kikuta     Come on, give me everything you've got. [20:12] (Flashback) Kikuta     This isn't fun. [20:14] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? But I am trying. [20:19] Sakamichi     Because I don't really like races. [20:23] Sakamichi     I don't particularly like them,      whether I win or lose. [20:29] Sakamichi     But... [20:31] Sakamichi     If you... [20:33] Sakamichi     If you're attacking the team      Makishima-san entrusted to me... [20:39] Sakamichi     If you're going to attack      Imaizumi-kun and Naruko-kun... [20:49] Sakamichi     Then my answer to your challenge to a race... [20:54] Sakamichi     My answer is yes! [21:02] Yuto     I thought that got me a hundred meters ahead. [21:05] Yuto     But he's already caught up. Incredible. [21:09] Yuto     No wonder he's the Mountain King! [21:11] Yuto     Man.

[03:42] Yuto     You truly are interesting, Mountain King! [03:46] Sakamichi     He accelerated again just when I caught up.

[04:25] Yuto     But you're still following me even     after I've pulled ahead four times. [04:29] Yuto     Exhausting yourself in the process. [04:31] Yuto     I'd like to know the secret     behind your strength— [04:35] Yuto     Are you trying to pass me,     Mountain King Onoda? [04:39] Yuto     It can't be. [04:39] Yuto     You're try to pass me? [04:41] Yuto     Seriously? [04:43] Yuto     He's trying to get to the front. [04:45] Yuto     Even though we're locked in battle. [04:47] Yuto     Even though I've attacked numerous times. [04:49] Yuto     Have I been beneath his     consideration this whole time? [04:51] Yuto     What is this, anyway? [04:54] Yuto     His pedaling... [04:56] Yuto     It's so plain and steady. [04:58] Yuto     It's not special at all. [04:59] Yuto     It doesn't even seem particularly fast. [05:02] Yuto     But for some reason, I can't     catch up to him easily. [05:05] Yuto     It's like he's moving forward with certainty. [05:07] Yuto     Step by step. [05:09] Yuto     And with a strange rhythm. [05:11] Sakamichi     I can't. [05:13] Sakamichi     I need to take this seriously, [05:15] Sakamichi     but for some reason I keep     hearing the* Love Hime* [05:17] Sakamichi     season two opening theme inside my head.

[05:35] Yuto     I'm going all-out against you. [05:39] Sakamichi     You're plenty strong. [05:43] Sakamichi     I think you're amazing. [05:46] Sakamichi     But Teshima-san told me to reach the front. [05:51] Yuto     He told you to? [05:53] Yuto     How strange. [05:56] Yuto     Do you ride because you're told to? [05:59] Yuto     Don't you not have a will of your own? [06:01] Yuto     Are you a robot? A doll? [06:05] Sakamichi     I'm told what to do and do as I'm told.

[06:20] Yuto     Who is this guy? [06:22] Yuto     I don't understand him. [06:24] Yuto     I have to beat him. [06:28] Yuto     Can you hear the cheers of the fans? [06:32] Yuto     The front is just ahead. [06:34] Yuto     Let's see who reaches the front first. [06:37] Yuto     It'll be our final race. [06:43] Imaizumi     Naruko! [06:44] Naruko     What, hotshot? [06:45] Imaizumi     They're coming from behind. [06:48] Naruko     I know. [06:49] Imaizumi     You're not going to check? [06:52] Naruko     I don't need to look. [06:54] Naruko     It's Onoda-kun. [06:57] Naruko     I know this rising pressure. [07:00] Naruko     Onoda-kun is coming. [07:02] Naruko     But... [07:03] Naruko     Feels like things didn't     go quite according to plan. [07:06] Imaizumi     Yeah. [07:07] Naruko     There aren't many of them. [07:09] Naruko     Onoda-kun and one Hakone Academy rider. [07:11] Naruko     According to this morning's meeting,     our strategy was to group up as a team. [07:15] Naruko     Did something happen? [07:18] Imaizumi     So Teshima-san decided to send just     Onoda after Hakone Academy attacked. [07:24] Imaizumi     Either way, we need to get ready. [07:26] Imaizumi     They could try to make a     move once they're together. [07:28] Imaizumi     Things will change depending on      who reaches the front first. [07:32] Imaizumi     And if Onoda's being pursued by     that guy's younger brother, #16... [07:37] Imaizumi     I know him well. [07:40] Imaizumi     After all, we fought one another     at last year's Inter-High. [07:43] Imaizumi     He's strong and... [07:45] Imaizumi     ...obsessed with victory! [07:48] Yuto     Yeah! [07:52] Yuto     Mountain King, I'm starting to understand     how you won the final climb last year! [07:59] Yuto     Plain and steady. [08:01] Yuto     There's nothing flashy or cool about you. [08:03] Yuto     Just plain, but with all your might. [08:04] Yuto     Steadily, steadily, steadily. [08:06] Yuto     You never stop. [08:08] Yuto     "You can't win like that." [08:09] Yuto     "That's too plain to fight." [08:12] Yuto     I'm sure you've heard that countless times. [08:14] Yuto     You suffered their criticisms and     proved them wrong through brute force. [08:19] Yuto     Didn't you? [08:19] Yuto     And so you ascended to your throne. [08:22] Yuto     You wanted to shut them up. [08:25] Yuto     Am I wrong? [08:27] Yuto     It must've felt good. [08:30] Yuto     How was it? [08:31] Yuto     How did it feel to prove everyone wrong? [08:33] Yuto     To overthrow conventional wisdom? [08:36] Yuto     Did it make you shake? [08:37] Yuto     Did it give you pins and needles? [08:39] Sakamichi     At last year's Inter-High, after the race,      my hands went numb. [08:45] Sakamichi     My entire body was shaking from exhaustion. [08:48] Sakamichi     I'm sorry, though. [08:50] Sakamichi     There wasn't a single person      who said I couldn't win that way! [09:01] Sakamichi     They were all so much nicer than I deserved. [09:05] Sakamichi     My senior Makishima-san gave     me a lot of encouragement. [09:10] Sakamichi     My classmate Imaizumi-kun... [09:13] Sakamichi     ...said he believed in me! [09:19] Yuto     Huh. I see. [09:22] Yuto     Is he serious? [09:24] Yuto     He rides for the team? For one jersey? [09:29] Yuto     Seriously? [09:31] Yuto     So these people really do exist. [09:34] Yuto     What other people think     doesn't affect how I ride. [09:41] Yuto     It seems our attitudes towards     victory are fundamentally different. [09:47] Yuto     I knew it. [09:49] Yuto     I have to beat him. [09:56] Yuto     In that case, shall I prove it to him? [09:59] Sakamichi     Shinkai-kun! [10:01] Sakamichi     He moved ahead. He's fast. [10:04] Sakamichi     He's standing. He's dancing. [10:05] Sakamichi     He's accelerating. [10:07] Sakamichi     I need to keep up. [10:09] Yuto     Prove I can achieve an overwhelming victory [10:11] Yuto     over the man who sits on the throne my way! [10:15] Yuto     Fall, Mountain King! [10:17] Sakamichi     He's fast! [10:18] Fan 1     Hakone Academy jumped ahead! [10:19] Fan 2     He's trying to get ahead and     meet up with the front first! [10:23] Sakamichi     He got so far ahead before     I could even start dancing! [10:28] Sakamichi     Let me catch up! [10:30] Fan 1     If Hakone Academy catches up to     the front, it'll be two on two! [10:33] Fan 2     The power balance will be a draw! [10:35] Fan 2     Either could attack at any time! [10:37] Yuto     I'll prove it... [10:41] Yuto     By defeating the enemies behind me! [10:44] Yuto     I'll prove it by pulling ahead! [10:47] Yuto     That's my... [10:49] (Flashback) Shinkai     This is Yuto. [10:50] (Flashback) Shinkai     He's my younger brother. [10:52] (Flashback) Shinkai     He started biking, too. [10:54] (Flashback) Shinkai     Be nice to him. [10:56] (Flashback) Shinkai     Honestly, he's got talent. [10:59] Yuto     Talent? [11:00] Yuto     This is... [11:02] Yuto     Shinkai Yuto's way! [11:05] Sakamichi     Turn! [11:07] Sakamichi     Catch up! [11:09] Fan 3     Hakone Academy's faster! [11:11] Fan 4     Sohoku's #1 can't close the gap! [11:13] Yuto     Don't worry, he won't catch up! [11:16] Yuto     I... [11:19] Yuto     I'll get there first! [11:22] Yuto     Yeah! First! [11:25] Yuto     I'm here, Ashikiba-san! [11:27] Yuto     Let's keep going. [11:28] Yuto     Let's leave Sohoku and     their Mountain King behind. [11:31] Yuto     I beat the Mountain King! [11:34] Ashikiba     No. We shouldn't, Yuto. [11:37] Yuto     Why not? [11:39] Yuto     The Mountain King is behind us. [11:40] Yuto     If grouping up was the battle,     I beat the Mountain King. [11:43] Ashikiba     Sohoku... [11:45] Ashikiba     Imaizumi and Naruko... [11:48] Ashikiba     Matched Onoda's acceleration,     and deliberately dropped back. [11:52] Ashikiba     They've already met up with him. [11:55] Imaizumi     You're always causing trouble, Onoda. [11:58] Sakamichi     Thanks. [12:01] Naruko     We've been waiting for you, Onoda-kun. [12:04] Ashikiba     If grouping up was the battle... [12:07] Ashikiba     It's a draw, Yuto. [12:12] Yuto     I see. [12:14] Yuto     I was going all out at the end. [12:17] Yuto     I thought I'd pulled ahead     and beaten the Mountain King. [12:22] Yuto     I never thought Sohoku's riders     in the front would fall back. [12:28] Yuto     They got us. [12:31] Yuto     If this were the finish line, I would've won. [12:36] Ashikiba     Team Sohoku... [12:39] Ashikiba     ...senses each other's vibrations     and turns that into strength. [12:43] Ashikiba     That's the kind of team they are. [12:45] Imaizumi     Good. Onoda's here. [12:47] Imaizumi     We have the strength of tag #1. [12:49] Imaizumi     This will put a lot of     pressure on Hakone Academy. [12:52] Imaizumi     This climb will end soon,      and we'll enter the downhill. [12:55] Imaizumi     For now, the battle for the second day's     long climb to the pass is going well. [13:01] Naruko     How was Shinkai-san's little brother? [13:04] Sakamichi     He was fast. It was like magic. [13:06] Imaizumi     Now we just have to wait for     the other three to catch up. [13:14] Sakamichi     Um, well... [13:16] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [13:18] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun... [13:21] Ashikiba     They're strong. [13:23] Yuto     If you say so, then they might be. [13:27] Yuto     Strong, huh? [13:28] Ashikiba     Especially when they're together. [13:31] Yuto     Oh, that. [13:33] Yuto     You mean when their team is together? [13:36] Yuto     In that case... [13:39] Yuto     That might not be a problem. [13:41] Imaizumi     What? [13:42] Naruko     Showoff and Aoyagi-san fell behind? [13:49] Naruko     You're joking. [13:51] Naruko     Two of our six members? [13:54] Naruko     It's still only the start of the second day! [13:56] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san said he'd come back, but... [14:01] Sakamichi     Teshima-san said we'd complete     the rest of the race as four. [14:08] Naruko     Oh, right. [14:10] Naruko     What about Kuroda-san? [14:11] Naruko     He fell during the finish line     sprint and started in the back. [14:15] Naruko     Is Hakone Academy climbing as three? [14:18] Naruko     That would mean they're missing one guy, too. [14:20] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy... [14:22] Sakamichi     They dropped back together     to collect Kuroda-san. [14:26] Sakamichi     They're climbing with all their members! [14:31] Imaizumi     Who said we were doing well,      Imaizumi Shunsuke? [14:37] Imaizumi     This climb will end soon. [14:39] Imaizumi     Are they trying to get here before it does? [14:43] Naruko     Is Hakone Academy trying to gather     all its members during this climb? [14:47] Sakamichi     Teshima-san will arrive before them. [14:50] Sakamichi     Once he's here, I'm sure... [14:52] Sakamichi     And then the four of us... [14:54] Sakamichi     If we accelerate, I'm sure— [14:56] Imaizumi     Onoda... [14:58] Imaizumi     Unfortunately, Hakone Academy      made it here first. [15:02] Kuroda     Looks like you're taking     this seriously, Yuto. [15:06] Yuto     Of course. [15:08] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan. [15:10] Ashikiba     I never thought I'd get     to see you ride again. [15:13] Ashikiba     I... I... [15:14] Kuroda     What am I, dead? [15:16] Kuroda     It's not like I came back to life. [15:18] Ashikiba     But I thought... [15:20] Kuroda     Hey, you'd better not be crying. [15:22] Sakamichi     Teshima-san? [15:24] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy... [15:27] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy has gathered all its members! [15:34] Izumida     Abs! [15:36] Naruko     Lashes is shouting! [15:38] Sakamichi     Where's Teshima-san? [15:39] Imaizumi     Behind us! [15:41] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy's passing us! [15:43] Naruko     They changed formation! [15:45] Naruko     This isn't good, hotshot! [15:46] Naruko     They're making their move! [15:48] Naruko     What should we do, hotshot? [15:49] Naruko     Wait for Teshima-san, or chase     after Hakone Academy as three? [15:53] Naruko     If we let them go now, they'll... [15:55] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, hurry! [15:57] Naruko     Hotshot! [15:58] Imaizumi     We don't have the numbers to go after them. [16:01] Imaizumi     But if we miss this opportunity... [16:04] Imaizumi     What should we do? [16:05] Imaizumi     What should we do? [16:07] Imaizumi     Teshima-san! [16:11] Imaizumi     We'll wait for Teshima-san! [16:13] Imaizumi     Sohoku will accelerate once     we have all our members! [16:18] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is accelerating     with all their members! [16:21] Sakamichi     They're getting farther and farther ahead! [16:24] Naruko     We let them get away! [16:25] Naruko     Hotshot, should we send one of us after them? [16:27] Naruko     Me or Onoda-kun? [16:29] Imaizumi     We'll wait for Teshima-san!     All of us, together! [16:32] Imaizumi     We'll wait. [16:33] Imaizumi     That's right. I'm sure     that's the right answer. [16:36] Imaizumi     But... [16:38] Imaizumi     It'll take just about 30 seconds or     more for Teshima-san to catch up. [16:43] Imaizumi     But staring at your opponents' butts while     you wait makes it feel like an eternity. [16:49] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is disappearing from sight... [16:52] Naruko     Hotshot! [16:56] Class Rep     Route 120, which connects     Nikkou and Numata City, [17:00] Class Rep     switches from uphill to downhill     at the Konsei Pass's Konsei Tunnel [17:05] Class Rep     1,842 meters above sea level, [17:06] Class Rep     where the course leaves     Tochigi and enters Gunma. [17:12] Class Rep     Last year it was Mt. Fuji and Hakone. [17:16] Class Rep     Why are road races held     at the top of mountains? [17:19] Class Rep     I wish they'd hold one in the city. [17:22] Class Rep     It's so hard to get around. [17:23] Class Rep     I have to transfer trains and buses. [17:26] (Flashback) Manami     The city? [17:27] (Flashback) Class Rep     Oh, not that I'm interested. [17:30] (Flashback) Manami     I don't like city races. [17:32] (Flashback) Manami     I'd be useless. [17:34] Class Rep     Since that's what Sangaku said,      I came all the way here. [17:40] Class Rep     He's always late and never     fills out his handouts. [17:43] Class Rep     If he's not useful here,      then he's banned from cycling. [17:47] Class Rep     But... [17:49] Class Rep     The view from the top of a     mountain certainly is nice. [17:53] Fan 5     They're here! [17:54] Class Rep     Huh? What? [17:55] Fan 6     Hakone Academy's in the front! [17:57] Fan 6     Their second-year ace     climber Manami is pulling! [17:59] Fan 5     And they have all their members! [18:04] Class Rep     They're here, they're here! [18:05] Class Rep     Wait... [18:06] Class Rep     He really is being useful! [18:09] Class Rep     Last year, I couldn't give     him those rice balls. [18:12] Class Rep     So this year, I know what to do! [18:14] Class Rep     There! [18:17] Class Rep     I dropped all my stuff! [18:19] Class Rep     I don't have time to pick this up. [18:21] Class Rep     Since I came all the way here,     I should at least say something. [18:25] Class Rep     Sangaku, good... [18:26] Class Rep     It's no use! I'm too late! [18:32] Manami     Is this for me? [18:33] Manami     Thanks, class rep. [18:36] Class Rep     Huh? [18:38] Manami     Did you have a long trip? [18:40] Class Rep     Sangaku... [18:44] Class Rep     I gave it to him... [18:45] Fan     Go, Hakone Academy! [18:48] Sakamichi     Teshima-san! Hurry! [18:52] Imaizumi     Come quickly, Teshima-san. [18:54] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy is so far ahead. [18:56] Imaizumi     Damn. [18:58] Imaizumi     It's so long. [18:59] Imaizumi     Does waiting always feel this long? [19:01] Naruko     I can't wait anymore! [19:02] Imaizumi     Calm down, Naruko! [19:04] Imaizumi     We have to wait! [19:05] Naruko     A moment's decision determines     everything in road racing. [19:09] Naruko     Will we or won't we respond     to our opponents' movements? [19:12] Naruko     That moment is now! [19:14] Naruko     We have to go! [19:16] Naruko     Even if it means leaving Teshima-san behind! [19:18] Naruko     You must understand that! [19:24] Naruko     Let's go, Onoda-kun. [19:26] Sakamichi     Huh? [19:27] Naruko     If we work together, we can     still catch up to them! [19:30] Imaizumi     No, Naruko! [19:32] Imaizumi     Sohoku will accelerate once     all four of us are together! [19:34] Imaizumi     That's an order! Stop, Naruko! [19:38] Naruko     Are you stupid, hotshot? [19:39] Naruko     Whoever breaks the      finish line tape first wins. [19:43] Naruko     The favorites are riding in front of us. [19:46] Naruko     Of course we have to go! [19:49] Naruko     Hotshot... [19:52] Naruko     I can't lose anymore. [19:59] Naruko     Flashy when he wins, flashy when he falls. [20:02] Naruko     The fastest man from Naniwa. That's... [20:05] Naruko     ...who Naruko Shoukichi is. [20:07] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun... [20:09] Naruko     Onoda-kun, you don't have to come. [20:12] Imaizumi     Damn it! He left! [20:16] Sakamichi     Before he left, Naruko-kun said     he'd defy your orders alone. [20:21] Sakamichi     That he wouldn't drag me into it. [20:23] Imaizumi     That showoff. [20:25] Imaizumi     You're self-centered, Naruko. [20:27] Fan 5     Sohoku's #3 is here! [20:29] Fan 6     Is he pursuing them alone? [20:31] Naruko     Sorry, hotshot, Onoda-kun, and Teshima-san. [20:34] Naruko     But if someone doesn't go now, we might lose. [20:38] Naruko     How could I not go? [20:42] Naruko     Okay, I've cleared the pass! [20:44] Naruko     Now it's all downhill! [20:46] Naruko     I'll catch up to Hakone Academy! [20:48] Naruko     It's one against six, but I'll show them. [20:50] Naruko     Show them my determination! [20:55] Midousuji     Nice timing, Naruko. [20:59] Naruko     Oh, Midousuji. [21:01] Naruko     Are you going after Hakone Academy now, too? [21:04] Midousuji     You left at the very last     second to catch up, Naruko. [21:10] Midousuji     As expected. [21:12] Midousuji     Hakone Academy would've sped up     if I'd gone after them right away. [21:16] Midousuji     So I let them ride ahead, waiting until     they relaxed and slowed down. [21:22] Naruko     And now you've started chasing them alone? [21:27] Midousuji     Oh, no. [21:31] Midousuji     You think I... [21:33] Naruko     Uh-oh, don't tell me... [21:34] Midousuji     ...would do something as reckless as Sohoku? [21:40] Midousuji     They're here right behind us. [21:45] Midousuji     Komari-kun and my Zakus.

[04:09] Imaizumi     And we can't support each     other without numbers. [04:11] Imaizumi     Let's go! [04:12] Both     Yeah! [04:15] (Flashback) Kinjou     Your true nature is within you. [04:20] (Flashback) Kinjou     Face yourself. [04:22] (Flashback) Kinjou     Face reality. Think of a way     to break through, and try it. [04:26] (Flashback) Kinjou     Copying others won't lead you to an answer. [04:29] Imaizumi     My true nature... [04:31] Imaizumi     The answer... The answer inside me... [04:34] Imaizumi     Did I come to this conclusion myself? [04:37] Imaizumi     Don't hesitate! [04:39] Imaizumi     Waiting for Teshima-san     was the right decision. [04:41] Imaizumi     My decision! [04:43] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [04:45] Sakamichi     You're going too fast. [04:47] Sakamichi     Teshima-san can't keep up. [04:49] Imaizumi     Sorry. [04:52] Imaizumi     I'm panicking. [04:54] Imaizumi     Damn. I've never been good at      matching someone else's pace. [04:57] Imaizumi     I'm aware of that. [04:59] Imaizumi     I don't have time to be thinking about this. [05:01] Imaizumi     I'm in the Inter-High. [05:02] Imaizumi     We need to go after Hakone Academy. [05:04] Both     Yeah! [05:05] Both     Yeah. [05:09] Imaizumi     I feel like I haven't gone all-out     since I became a second-year. [05:14] (Flashback) Miki     Huh? Imaizumi-kun,      you don't usually complain. [05:17] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I'm not. I'm just being candid. [05:23] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Now that we're second-years,     we've had younger members join. [05:25] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Things are noisier, and there's more to do. [05:28] (Flashback) Imaizumi     There are times I'd rather practice     on my own, but I can't do what I want. [05:32] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I'm still not very good at     interacting with underclassmen. [05:36] (Flashback) Miki     It's true that you don't have     many friends, Imaizumi-kun. [05:39] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Shut up! [05:40] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I prefer quality over quantity. [05:42] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Now that I'm a second-year,     it's only natural. [05:46] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I know I just have to get used to it. [05:48] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Last year, I had seniors. I was unconstrained. [05:53] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But this year... [05:55] (Flashback) Imaizumi     It feels like I have a limiter     installed all the whole time. [05:59] (Flashback) Miki     But your Minegayama time has     improved compared to last year. [06:04] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I know. I'm in good shape. [06:07] (Flashback) Imaizumi     That's why I said it's how I feel. [06:09] (Flashback) Imaizumi     It's probably just my imagination. [06:12] Imaizumi     Why am I remembering this nonsense now? [06:19] Imaizumi     Those purple jerseys I see... [06:24] Imaizumi     Those riders coming up behind us... [06:27] Imaizumi     Did Midousuji not simply     go after Naruko earlier? [06:32] Imaizumi     Was he planning to meet up with his team? [06:35] (Flashback) Midousuji     Why aren't you going? [06:36] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's Sohoku's chance to get ahead. [06:40] Imaizumi     Our chance... [06:42] Imaizumi     Did I throw that away? [06:44] Imaizumi     With my decision? [06:46] Sakamichi     What's wrong, Imaizumi-kun? [06:48] Sakamichi     Is there something behind us? [06:52] Komari     Sohoku's ace's muscles! [06:55] Imaizumi     What? [07:00] Sakamichi     K-Kyoto Fushimi's coming! [07:03] Sakamichi     They caught up! [07:05] Sakamichi     They're passing us! [07:10] Komari     Imaizumi-san... [07:12] Komari     He has such nice muscles,      but he's such a rough person! [07:16] Imaizumi     Onoda! Teshima-san! Accelerate! [07:18] Imaizumi     Stick to Kyoto Fushimi's butts! [07:19] Imaizumi     If we ride behind them, we'll     be able to catch up to Hakone— [07:27] Imaizumi     Recover faster, Teshima-san! [07:30] Imaizumi     Aren't you a climber? [07:39] Teshima     Sorry... [07:41] Imaizumi     No. It's not Teshima-san. [07:44] Imaizumi     I'm the one who made the wrong decision. [07:49] Imaizumi     What was that sound? [07:53] Midousuji     Crackizumi! [07:59] Sakamichi     What? Imaizumi-kun suddenly dropped his pace. [08:02] Teshima     Imaizumi... [08:03] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, are you— [08:05] Teshima     Onoda... [08:06] Teshima     Imaizumi's exhausted from     riding at the front. [08:11] Teshima     He's exhausted. [08:12] Teshima     That's all. [08:16] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun's... not just exhausted? [08:21] Teshima     Our situation couldn't be worse. [08:23] Teshima     Kyoto Fushimi's ahead of us.      So is Hakone Academy. [08:27] Teshima     And now we have to fight them      without our full team. [08:31] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [08:32] Teshima     We have to go after them to stand a chance. [08:35] Teshima     Can you pull, Onoda? [08:40] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [08:41] Fan C     Sohoku's coming! [08:43] Fan D     They've fallen behind Kyoto Fushimi! [08:45] Fan E     They're finally entering the tunnel! [08:50] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [08:52] Teshima     Sohoku is a team that supports     each other, Imaizumi. [08:55] Teshima     Especially during these moments. [08:57] Teshima     Maybe I'm just saying we're okay     to make myself feel better. [09:01] Teshima     But Imaizumi, believe. [09:03] Teshima     As long as we keep pedaling,     we'll get another chance to— [09:15] Teshima     Of course. [09:17] Teshima     If Hakone Academy hadn't passed me,      this never would've happened. [09:22] Teshima     Okay, you're right. [09:24] Teshima     You're right that I'm slow to recover, too. [09:27] Imaizumi     So why are you smiling? [09:30] Sakamichi     Huh? [09:32] Imaizumi     If you had caught up, [09:34] Imaizumi     we wouldn't have had a problem with     Kyoto Fushimi or Hakone Academy! [09:37] Imaizumi     But you're still talking! [09:41] Teshima     Imaizumi, when times get tough— [09:44] Imaizumi     That's enough. Sorry. [09:46] Imaizumi     It's all my fault. [09:48] Imaizumi     I made the wrong decision. [09:51] Imaizumi     Sorry for yelling at you. [09:54] Imaizumi     In that moment, Naruko made the     right decision by going ahead. [10:01] Imaizumi     This sound again... [10:06] Teshima     You think Sohoku won't get     another chance, Imaizumi? [10:10] Teshima     This is exactly when we should     be supporting each other. [10:22] Mizuta     Shifting from phase six to seven. [10:25] Mizuta     Team has grouped up. [10:27] Mizuta     Just as planned, we left     the pack during the climb [10:30] Mizuta     and caught up on the downhill four kilometers      past the tunnel, Midousuji-kun! [10:36] Naruko     Kyoto Fushimi actually got all     six of their members together! [10:40] Midousuji     Yeah. Good work, Zakus. [10:43] Midousuji     So, what happened? [10:45] Midousuji     Did Izumi-kun say anything     when you passed him? [10:50] Naruko     Hotshot! [10:53] Kiriya     Nothing in particular. [10:54] Funazu     He just grunted and gasped with     a surprised look on his face. [10:58] Midousuji     Hear that... [11:01] Midousuji     Naruko-kun? [11:05] Midousuji     Sohoku's been completely scattered! [11:09] Midousuji     Let's move onto phase eight! [11:12] Midousuji     After Hakone Academy! Accelerate! [11:15] Naruko     Damn it! [11:16] Naruko     I knew this was coming! [11:18] Midousuji     We'll pedal at the expected pace, [11:20] Midousuji     catch up within five minutes,     and crush the champions early! [11:26] All     Yes, sir! [11:28] Naruko     They're accelerating! [11:30] Naruko     But I'll keep up through sheer     willpower alone if I have to! [11:32] Naruko     I need to catch up to     Hakone Academy in the front! [11:48] Izumida     Looks like our pursuers are coming. [11:59] Izumida     Shall I praise you, Midousuji-kun? [12:02] Izumida     Congratulate you for catching up? [12:03] Midousuji     No need, Lashes. [12:06] Midousuji     You don't need to mind me. [12:09] Izumida     It's been a year. [12:11] Izumida     Knowing you, I'm sure you expected     to catch up at this exact moment. [12:16] Midousuji     I don't know what you're talking about. [12:19] Midousuji     We simply caught up after     pedaling as hard as we could. [12:25] Izumida     You know the second day's sprint     line is five kilometers ahead. [12:31] Izumida     And that exactly the     same situation as last year, [12:36] Izumida     when Hakone Academy tasted bitter defeat. [12:40] Izumida     Shall we have a rematch? SIGN    5 km to Road Race Second Day Sprint Line [12:45] Fan     Hakone Academy, you can do it! [12:50] Izumida     Let's do it, Midousuji-kun. [12:53] Izumida     Isn't that why you came? [12:55] Izumida     I'm sure you said you'd crush the     champions early before chasing after us [12:58] Izumida     at the sprint line five kilometers ahead. [13:01] Midousuji     No. No, no. [13:03] Midousuji     We didn't come to crush you. [13:05] Midousuji     We're just here to practice with our betters. [13:09] Midousuji     Our betters. [13:11] Midousuji     You're all too common during the summer... [13:13] Midousuji     You champion maggots! [13:16] Izumida     That's not the attitude of one come     to practice with their betters. [13:19] Izumida     If you're coming, send your best sprinter. [13:22] Izumida     Hakone Academy will mow him down. [13:27] Izumida     Doubashi! [13:32] Yamaguchi     Doubashi Masakiyo! They're sending him? [13:35] Yamaguchi     He's got the green number tag! [13:36] Yamaguchi     He won yesterday's first     result on the sprint. [13:40] Yamaguchi     The Road Monster, Doubashi Masakiyo. [13:43] Yamaguchi     Even as another sprinter,      his riding seems exceptional. [13:47] Yamaguchi     He's Hakone Academy's heavyweight sprinter. [13:49] Izumida     The team is counting on you. [13:54] Izumida     I'll be leaving you briefly,     for about five kilometers. [13:58] Izumida     I'm going to have some fun      with Andy and Frank [14:00] Izumida     as Hakone Academy's proud ace sprinter. [14:04] Izumida     Me, Izumida Touichirou! [14:08] Mizuta     I-Izumida? [14:09] Yamaguchi     The ace sprinter himself is going? [14:12] Izumida     Come on. [14:13] Izumida     Come on! You see this? [14:15] Izumida     My right pec, Andy! [14:17] Izumida     My left pec, Frank! [14:19] Izumida     They're excited now... by this battle! [14:23] Doubashi     Those were Izumida-san's pec squats. [14:26] Doubashi     He's never been beaten after doing that. [14:29] Doubashi     They call them the Squats of Death! [14:33] Doubashi     Everyone who sees it always     laughs at how comical it looks. [14:37] Doubashi     But that amusement turns     to fear in an instant. [14:41] Doubashi     He shoots ahead like a ray of light     with his spring-like muscles. [14:44] Doubashi     Their smiles collapse, and they tremble,      rooted in place. [14:49] Doubashi     Izumida-san has changed! [14:50] Doubashi     He's gotten even stronger! [14:53] Izumida     Will you laugh at Andy and     Frank, too, Midousuji-kun? [14:59] Midousuji     I won't laugh. [15:02] Midousuji     Those who can only judge others     by their comical appearance [15:06] Midousuji     are trash who can't see     a person's true nature. [15:09] Midousuji     I guess we'll send our own special man. [15:13] Izumida     There's no need to put on airs. [15:15] Izumida     It's you, isn't it? [15:16] Izumida     Kyoto Fushimi's ace, #111, Midousuji-kun. [15:20] Midousuji     Gross. [15:22] Midousuji     You used Doubashi-kun     to put on airs yourself. [15:26] Izumida     It was just a demonstration     before we started. [15:29] Izumida     Isn't it more fun that way? [15:34] Izumida     It's time for revenge... [15:36] Izumida     In exactly the same situation as last year. [15:38] Midousuji     It only seems similar. [15:40] Midousuji     Between last year and this year,      everything is different. [15:43] Izumida     I'll keep my zipper zipped up to start with. [15:46] Izumida     Against you, I'll have to go all out. [15:48] Komari     Don't! [15:51] Kuroda     What? The guy in the back is coming. [15:54] Komari     Don't zip up your zipper! [15:57] Kuroda     That's #116, Kishigami Komari! [16:00] Kuroda     He's trying to— [16:01] Kuroda     Watch out, Touichirou! [16:03] Komari     Muscles! [16:03] Kuroda     He's trying to touch you! [16:05] Komari     Muscles, muscles! [16:07] Komari     Muscles! [16:11] Yamaguchi     Kishigami! [16:12] Mizuta     What are you doing?! [16:14] Izumida     My Frank! [16:22] Komari     Sorry. The heat made me dizzy. [16:27] Kuroda     First-year, that's the same     excuse you used before! [16:29] Komari     With the way you keep     showing off your muscles, [16:35] Komari     how could you expect me to sit still? [16:41] Komari     These are... These are... [16:44] Komari     Good muscles! I knew it! [16:48] Komari     Midousuji-san, can I go     after this muscular man? [16:52] Doubashi     What? [16:54] Yamaguchi     He wants to race for the sprint line? [16:56] Kuroda     #116? SIGN    4000m to Road Race Second Day Sprint Line [16:59] Fan     You can do it! [17:00] Fan     You'll win this year! [17:03] Midousuji     You really don't have any restraint. [17:10] Izumida     Kishigami Komari... [17:13] (Flashback) Izumida     Kyoto Fushimi subbed out     one of their members? [17:15] (Flashback) Takadajou     This is the new list. SIGN    114 Funazu 115 Kiriya 116 Kishigami Komari [17:19] (Flashback) Izumida     They swapped out third-year Hironishi     for first-year Kishigami? [17:23] (Flashback) Izumida     Is Hironishi not feeling well? [17:25] (Flashback) Izumida     What do you think, Takadajou? [17:27] (Flashback) Takadajou     It's a strategic move. [17:29] (Flashback) Takadajou     Honestly, Hironishi's not strong. [17:32] (Flashback) Takadajou     Kyoto Fushimi has a shallow pool     to draw from this year. [17:35] (Flashback) Takadajou     We knew this, but Hironishi     was removed specifically. [17:39] (Flashback) Takadajou     This move will bring their members, excluding     Midousuji, into line with one another. [17:43] (Flashback) Izumida     Do we have any data on this first-year? [17:45] (Flashback) Takadajou     None. But according to rumors,      he's been brought along to every race. [17:49] (Flashback) Doubashi     A sub's a sub. [17:51] (Flashback) Doubashi     He can't be that good. [17:53] (Flashback) Doubashi     It's nothing to worry about, Izumida-san. [17:55] (Flashback) Izumida     No, I'll hear it. [17:57] Izumida     He could be the eye of the storm. [17:59] (Flashback) Takadajou     Supposedly, Kishigami tags along to     every race and gives them massages. [18:06] Komari     I can still feel it all the     way in my elbow, Izumida-san! [18:13] Izumida     He seems to be more than a mere masseuse. [18:16] Izumida     He's an unknown value.     We have no data on him. [18:18] Izumida     But that's— [18:19] Kuroda     Touichirou! [18:21] Kuroda     This race has a long way to go. [18:22] Kuroda     The six of us can ride     through the sprint together. [18:25] Kuroda     The way he touched you wasn't normal. [18:27] Kuroda     Before he does anything else to you— [18:29] Izumida     It's fine, Yuki. We're the champions. [18:32] Izumida     We're Hakone Academy. [18:33] Izumida     We accept and defeat all challengers. [18:37] Izumida     That's what champions do. [18:38] Izumida     If we lack data on our opponents, [18:41] Izumida     we can learn by battling them! [18:43] Izumida     Abs! [18:44] Yamaguchi     Izumida's "abs" call is amazing. [18:47] Yamaguchi     I can feel the pressure     all the way over here. [18:48] Yamaguchi     Izumida's gotten stronger than last year! [18:53] Yamaguchi     Will Kishigami be okay? [18:55] Izumida     Do you want to hear me shout     "abs" more, Kishigami-kun? [19:00] Komari     Yes, more! [19:03] Izumida     Abs ready! [19:04] Yamaguchi     Hakone Academy's ace sprinter     is about to make his move! [19:08] Midousuji     You really do lack restraint! [19:14] Izumida     Go! [19:16] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs, abs, abs! [19:20] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs, abs, abs! [19:24] Fan H     Hakone Academy's sending     their ace sprinter, Izumida! [19:27] Fan I     Who is Kyoto Fushimi sending? [19:28] Fan J     #116! Third-year Hironishi Sakudai! [19:31] Fan H     He's keeping up with Izumida! [19:33] Fan J     Hironishi's amazing! [19:36] Izumida     I'm impressed you're keeping up,     but perhaps I went too fast. [19:40] Izumida     Are you short of breath already? [19:42] Komari     Huh? What? [19:44] Komari     My breath? [19:45] Komari     I'm panting already [19:48] Komari     from seeing the movements     of your muscles up close. [19:52] Komari     Of course I'm panting. [19:54] Izumida     That's why he's panting? [19:56] Izumida     Then how's this? [19:58] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs! [20:00] Izumida     Bua, bua, bua! [20:02] Komari     Your "bua, bua" is great, too! [20:06] Izumida     Let's go, Andy and Frank. [20:09] Izumida     If he's determined to keep up,     then I'll break away by force! [20:12] Izumida     Bua! [20:16] Izumida     He's keeping up. [20:17] Izumida     I see. It seems you have fast reactions. [20:22] Izumida     The moment I prepare to accelerate,     you're already starting to chase. [20:26] Komari     I can tell from the     movements of your muscles. [20:29] Komari     Tiny vibrations tell me how much     you're going to accelerate. [20:32] Komari     I don't miss any of them. [20:35] Izumida     So no matter how much I accelerate,     your reaction will never be late? [20:38] Komari     After all, I won't get another chance     to see your muscles up close. [20:43] Izumida     Frank senses that this man is dangerous? [20:46] Komari     Did Frank-san just react? [20:51] Izumida     How does he know about Frank? [20:53] Izumida     No, I'm always shouting his name. [20:56] Izumida     It's not strange that he knows. [20:58] Komari     I see. He's careful, is he? [21:02] Komari     He senses all danger. [21:04] Komari     Since he increases the pressure on     your heart, he's careful and bold. [21:10] Komari     Is that Frank-san's personality? [21:13] Izumida     This man understands that     much just from touching me? [21:18] Izumida     Your senses are incredible. [21:20] Izumida     Do you know how this race will end, too? [21:22] Komari     More or less, based on the     movements of your muscles. [21:27] Izumida     Who will win this sprint? [21:29] Komari     Me. [21:32] Komari     Huh? Are you feeling slightly short of breath? [23:14] Kuroda     That cat... [23:19] Kuroda     Come on. Don't be that way. [23:22] Kuroda     We're both black cats. Let's be friends. [23:24] Kuroda     Huh? [23:25] Izumida     Abs! Abs! Abs! [23:28] Izumida     Andy! Frank, Frank, Frank, Frank! [23:29] Izumida     Andy, Andy, Andy! Frank, Frank!

[00:11] Komari     Izumida-san, let me hear     you shout "abs" more! [00:15] Komari     I want to see more! [00:18] Komari     I want to see them whip back and forth! [00:22] Komari     I want to hear the passionate     braying of your muscles! [00:27] Komari     Contract and release. They repeat     that action over and over. [00:31] Komari     Magnificently and proudly, thousands     and tens of thousands of times. [00:35] Komari     Muscles are beautiful! [00:39] Komari     The process by which you develop     your muscles is important. [00:42] Komari     Muscles that are raised     carefully are high quality. [00:45] Komari     Their appearance, feel,     elasticity, and durability... [00:49] Komari     All their properties shine fantastically.

[03:13] Izumida     Is he trying to knock me out of the race? [03:16] Izumida     On the first day, he left the rear and     caught up to the front with Midousuji. [03:20] Izumida     He may be an unknown, but he's strong. [03:24] Izumida     In other words, Kyoto Fushimi has     revealed their secret weapon.

He said everything's     going according to plan. [03:44] Komari     And that I wouldn't need to restrain     myself once the race started.

[04:17] Kuroda     At the very least, you must think     that first-year will beat Touichirou. [04:23] Doubashi     What? Beat Izumida-san? [04:26] Midousuji     Well... [04:28] Midousuji     I wasn't expecting him to go. [04:32] Midousuji     But he'll win. [04:35] Midousuji     Then it will be the same as last year.

[08:21] (Flashback) Murakami     Supposedly, it's because sprinters can't      issue instructions at the end of the race. [08:26] (Flashback) Gt     So it should be Kuroda-san or Manami?

[13:01] (Flashback) Ashikiba     At some point, I became the laundry boy. [13:06] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But Fukutomi-san and     Shinkai-san cheered me up. [13:11] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It made me really happy. [13:13] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But I failed to meet their     expectations when I got my chance. [13:18] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I was so impatient when things     didn't go the way I wanted [13:20] (Flashback) Ashikiba     that I did something you should never do. [13:23] Izumida     That was a huge issue within the team. [13:26] Izumida     And the result was a     permanent ban from racing. [13:31] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I don't think I had to win that race. [13:35] (Flashback) Ashikiba     They just wanted me to finish in the     top nine and gain some confidence. [13:39] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Arakita-san told me later that's what     Shinkai-san and Fukutomi-san wanted. [13:45] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But I put that pressure on myself. [13:47] (Flashback) Ashikiba     My need to win turned out badly. [13:52] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Earlier, in the club room,     you said you felt guilt. [13:55] (Flashback) Ashikiba     If that's guilt, [13:58] (Flashback) Ashikiba     then I carry more guilt than anyone. [14:05] (Flashback) Ashikiba     And probably... [14:07] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Oh, I'm not talking about me. [14:10] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But I think people who don't     carry guilt shouldn't lead others.

[15:24] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I placed second at the Minegayama race. [15:26] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Fukutomi-san got mad at me again.

[18:47] (Flashback) Fukutomi     We're expected to be strong.     We're expected to win. [18:50] (Flashback) Fukutomi     After all, Hakone Academy are the champions. [18:53] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Can you move forward without praise? [18:55] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Can you charge full speed     through the darkness? [18:58] (Flashback) Fukutomi     Can you carry everything and win,     no matter the circumstances? [19:03] (Flashback) Fukutomi     That's the resolve it takes to be the captain [19:05] (Flashback) Fukutomi     of the Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club. [19:07] (Flashback) Izumida     Yes... [19:09] (Flashback) Izumida     Yes, sir! [19:11] Izumida     I will win, no matter the circumstances. [19:14] Izumida     A sprinter is a pointed spear. [19:16] Izumida     In the past year, I have been polishing     this spear while no one was watching. [19:22] Izumida     My spear will pierce the line faster     and more beautifully than anyone else! [19:26] Izumida     Abs! [19:27] Izumida     Abs! Abs! [19:28] Izumida     Abs! Abs!

[19:39] Fan     He caught up, even though Izumida accelerated! [19:41] Fan     It's like #116 was already     moving by the time Izumida moved! [19:44] Komari     Muscles are honest. Fakes don't work. [19:47] Komari     You order them to move,     and they enter the motion. [19:50] Komari     They begin moving hundredths of     seconds before they enter the motion. [19:54] Komari     Especially yours, Izumida-san. [19:56] Komari     Your muscles are particularly honest. [19:58] Komari     And I won't miss a thing.

[20:26] Izumida     He'll conserve his energy     until the last hundred meters [20:28] Izumida     and match my pace, then attack at the end. [20:32] Izumida     So I just need to make sure I     don't go all out until the end. [20:36] Izumida     Did you see the slight slackness in my muscles     when I thought that, Kishigami Komari? [20:42] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi's staying ahead! [20:46] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs! [20:48] Fan     There's 200 meters left!

[23:19] Yamaguchi     It's preposterous for him to give me a gift. [23:20] Yamaguchi     Why me? This is terrifying! [23:23] Komari     You're not going to open it? [23:25] Yamaguchi     Oh, yeah...

[13:27] Shinkai     That was an awesome sprint. [13:33] Izumida     Shinkai-san... [13:39] Izumida     Shinkai-san. [13:41] Izumida     It was a heavy and difficult year. [13:47] Izumida     "A sprinter can't be the captain." [13:50] Izumida     "Last year's loss." [13:53] Izumida     There were times I nearly couldn't     withstand those pressures. [14:00] Izumida     But now I feel like some     of it's been wiped away. [14:06] Izumida     I carried the strong Hakone     Academy team on my back, [14:10] Izumida     created a new team with my teammates,      and carved a new path. [14:19] Izumida     Shinkai-san... [14:22] Izumida     Shinkai-san, am I... [14:26] Izumida     on the right path? [14:30] Shinkai     Izumida... [14:32] Shinkai     The captain's position and tag #4... [14:37] Shinkai     I'm glad we entrusted both of those to you. [14:41] Shinkai     You're the pride of Hakone Academy. [14:44] Shinkai     You're the fastest man! [14:47] Izumida     Abs!

[15:27] Hakogaku 1     He's gone. [15:28] Hakogaku 2     It was only for a moment. [15:30] Hakogaku 2     If this were the finish line,     we could've talked longer. [15:35] Shinkai     A moment... [15:39] Shinkai     Some things can only be conveyed in a moment. [15:55] Komari     I wanted to touch them! [15:58] Izumida     Kishigami Komari... [16:03] Komari     I was supposed to be able to touch them. [16:04] Komari     I pulled ahead 300 meters before the line. [16:08] Komari     You closed the gap during the turn,     but then you slipped on some debris. [16:13] Komari     I thought I had won. [16:15] Komari     After all, from your muscle mass      and movements, I expected [16:21] Komari     that you wouldn't catch me      by the end of the sprint! [16:24] Komari     But you did. [16:27] Komari     In other words, it was that moment. [16:31] Komari     In that moment, your muscles... [16:34] Komari     They became larger, stronger... [16:41] Komari     And far more swollen than I had imagined! [16:46] Komari     More virile! [16:48] Komari     Fiercer! [16:52] Komari     Your muscles exceeded my expectations. [16:57] Komari     They are the highest-quality muscles. [17:02] Komari     How did you forge them? [17:05] Komari     I thought I knew. [17:08] Komari     But your muscles exceeded my imagination. [17:19] Izumida     Do you want to touch my muscles? [17:28] Izumida     I don't mind. After all, the race is over. [17:53] Komari     No, thank you. [17:55] Komari     I made a rule that I would only touch     them if I crossed the line first. [18:02] Izumida     A rule? [18:05] Izumida     This man has his own aesthetic, too. [18:11] Izumida     What a sportsman. [18:13] Izumida     Though you're my opponent,     I admire your spirit. [18:17] Komari     No, I was just raised that way. [18:24] Komari     I really wanted to touch them. [18:34] Izumida     This guy is still a first-year. [18:38] Izumida     Whatever his motivation, [18:40] Izumida     as long as he keeps riding, he may     eventually pose a threat to Hakone Academy. [18:47] Izumida     No, I should be focusing     on this race right now. [18:53] Izumida     The sprint is over. [18:55] Izumida     The course will be flat for     a while, but after that, [19:01] Izumida     we'll enter the mountain stage. [19:04] Izumida     The climbers will make their move. SIGN    Day Two [19:08] Hakogaku 2     Thanks for coming. [19:10] Hakogaku 2     Really, thank you so much for     coming to watch the race. [19:14] Shinkai     There's no need to be so considerate of me. [19:16] Hakogaku 3     Is everyone who graduated doing well? [19:23] Shinkai     Why don't you ask them yourself? [19:30] All     Fu... [19:33] All     Fukutomi-san! [19:38] Shinkai     I felt more nervous watching him. [19:40] Shinkai     I felt more relaxed when I was riding. [19:44] Shinkai     Did you not want him to see you, Juichi? [19:48] Fukutomi     No. Just watching his sprint was enough. [19:53] Fukutomi     He managed to wipe away     the guilt he was carrying. [19:58] Fukutomi     Izumida did well. [20:02] Shinkai     He would've been happy to hear that from you. [20:05] Fukutomi     Hakone Academy's captain isn't     someone who should be praised. [20:11] Shinkai     You're strict. [20:13] Shinkai     Come to think of it, I heard      he was coming today. [20:17] Shinkai     Is he late? [20:18] Fukutomi     No. I got a call this morning. [20:21] Fukutomi     He's watching from somewhere else today. SIGN    Day Two     Mountain Line [20:36] Fan     It's still going to be another     hour before any riders get here.

[21:00] Toudou     It will be decided. [21:02] Toudou     After all, this is the only stage [21:07] Toudou     where they can race without any distractions. [21:13] Toudou     For the King of the Mountain... [21:15] Toudou     To inherit the title of Mountain God.

[00:06] Fan     It's Hakone Academy and Kyoto Fushimi! [00:08] Fan     That's #14, the guy from the sprint! [00:10] Fan     #116 has rejoined his team, too! [00:13] Fan     There's one Sohoku rider with them! [00:15] Fan     It's the red guy! SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    LINE.16 Sohoku Falls Behind [01:54] Naruko     It's suddenly muggy. The air's hot. [01:58] Naruko     The temperature rose sharply     once we exited the tunnel. [02:01] Naruko     Our elevation must have     decreased quite a bit. [02:04] Naruko     Once this downhill ends, we'll be in Numata. [02:08] Naruko     From there, the road will     be flat for a while. [02:10] Naruko     But once that ends,      we'll enter the mountains. [02:14] Naruko     Naturally, since I'm a genius, I won't let     Hakone Academy or Kyoto Fushimi get away. [02:19] Naruko     But honestly, having to do all of it     myself puts me at a disadvantage. [02:30] Naruko     Damn! [02:32] Naruko     Kyoto Fushimi's staggering their line [02:34] Naruko     and moving around so I can't get     out of the wind behind them. [02:37] Naruko     Is this one of Midousuji's phases? [02:40] Naruko     They're absolutely right. [02:42] Naruko     If I want to get out of the wind, I should      go get some of my own teammates. [02:46] Naruko     Right now, I'm just an eyesore.     They won't cooperate with me. [02:52] Naruko     My legs are starting to feel modestly     exhausted from this modest attack. [02:56] Naruko     No, wait. I'm a genius. [03:00] Naruko     I can handle this myself. [03:03] Naruko     I won't let modesty beat me! [03:06] Naruko     But... [03:07] Naruko     It would be easier if they caught up. [03:12] Naruko     My team... [03:14] Naruko     Onoda-kun... [03:16] Naruko     Teshima-san... [03:18] Naruko     Hotshot! [03:20] Naruko     Come on! [03:22] Naruko     Catch up! [03:28] Teshima     This is hopeless. [03:30] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, I'll switch with you. [03:33] Teshima     Thanks, Onoda. [03:34] Sakamichi     We'll catch up to the front somehow. [03:39] Teshima     Our situation couldn't be worse. [03:41] Teshima     We're pretty far behind the front. [03:44] Teshima     I wish we could catch up,      but they're six plus six plus one. [03:49] Teshima     That's thirteen riders. There's only three of us. [03:53] Teshima     And one of us is a climber who     won't be good on the flats. SIGN    Feed Zone [03:57] Teshima     At the feed zone earlier... [03:59] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Teshima-san! [04:00] (Flashback) Danchiku     Onoda-san! [04:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Thank you! [04:03] (Flashback) Miki     Teshima-san, you're five minutes     and ten seconds behind the front! [04:08] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I-It's okay! [04:11] (Flashback) Sugimoto     I-I'm sure you can catch up! [04:13] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Please catch up! [04:15] (Flashback) Sugimoto     Sohoku, go! [04:18] (Flashback) Danchiku     Senpai! [04:19] (Flashback) Aya     Good luck! [04:23] Teshima     Sugimoto was tearing up. [04:27] Teshima     In fact, he was crying. [04:30] Teshima     I was in the feed zone last     year and the year before. [04:32] Teshima     I know what it's like [04:35] Teshima     to wait and wait for your team to come. [04:39] Teshima     It makes you want to cry, but... [04:43] Teshima     This time, I have to do something     about this situation. [04:48] Teshima     But how? [04:55] Ise     You must be slow if you're     still hanging around here. [04:59] Ise     This year's Sohoku team sure is slow. [05:04] Teshima     Pursuers? You can't be serious. [05:06] Teshima     They caught up to us from behind? [05:09] Ise     You're slower than last year. [05:12] Ise     Higo blooms again! [05:15] Teshima     Kumamoto Daiichi? [05:19] Ise     We trained for the flats     on the plains of Kumamoto [05:21] Ise     and polished our climbing     on the slopes of Mt. Aso. [05:24] Ise     We are the Kumamoto Daiichi     Higo Superexpress! [05:31] Teshima     Kumamoto Daiichi third-year Ise! [05:33] Ise     We let Kyoto and Hakone take the sprint     and deliberately left the pack late. [05:40] Ise     If we'd left early, we would've     ended up like you, in pieces! [05:47] Ise     This year's Kumamoto Daiichi is smart. [05:50] Ise     We planned to delay our move and chase after     the front with all six of our members. [05:56] Teshima     The front? [05:58] Teshima     They're heading for the     front? In that case... [06:02] Sakamichi     E-Excuse me, Ise-san... [06:04] Sakamichi     You rode with a very energetic guy     named Taura-san last year, didn't you? [06:10] Ise     Are you trying to say we've changed, [06:14] Ise     tag #1, Onoda-kun? [06:17] Sakamichi     Oh, no! Um, I'm sorry if I offended you! [06:22] Ise     You're right. [06:24] Ise     I took over the club after Taura-san. [06:28] Ise     I don't want to face the pain we experienced     last year again, so I've become a demon. [06:35] Ise     The underclassmen call me the Demon Sergeant! [06:41] Teshima     Ise! [06:44] Teshima     Why don't we work together     until we reach the front? [06:48] Teshima     Us and Kumamoto Daiichi... [06:51] Teshima     In a road race, the more people there     are in a group, the faster they go! [06:58] Teshima     Not a bad deal, right? [07:03] Ise     Didn't I mention last     year's painful experience? [07:08] Ise     We're done with cooperating! [07:12] Sakamichi     That's right. [07:14] Sakamichi     Last year, during the third day's     final stage, Kumamoto Daiichi [07:18] Sakamichi     was abandoned by the guys from Hiroshima. [07:26] Ise     I've got another piece of bad news for you. [07:30] Ise     The pack behind us is slowly gaining speed. [07:34] Ise     If you keep riding at that pace, [07:38] Ise     forget about the front—the pack     behind will catch up to you. [07:45] Imaizumi     How could we have fallen so far behind? [07:48] Imaizumi     It's because I made the wrong choice. [07:52] Teshima     Forget about the front     because of the pack behind... [07:55] Teshima     I didn't plan on giving up, [07:59] Teshima     but should we leave Naruko alone and... [08:06] Daiichi     Captain Ise! [08:07] Daiichi     The pursuers behind us     have fallen out of sight! [08:10] Daiichi     We've shaken off Sohoku! [08:12] Ise     Roger that. [08:14] Ise     They were as persistent this     year as they were last year. [08:18] Ise     Sohoku's impressive. [08:21] Ise     But their race is over now. [08:24] Ise     Kumamoto Daiichi finished them off. [08:28] Ise     Since they're not trying to catch up,     they must've lost the will to fight. [08:33] Ise     They've given up [08:36] Ise     on this race! [08:49] Teshima     What's going on? Onoda? [08:52] Teshima     What is this rising pressure? [08:56] Imaizumi     Onoda? [08:58] Imaizumi     Despite the circumstances, [09:01] Imaizumi     he's smiling? [09:05] Teshima     What's up, Onoda? [09:07] Sakamichi     Uh, sorry. [09:10] Sakamichi     I know I shouldn't be smiling. [09:13] Sakamichi     I just couldn't help but imagine... [09:17] Sakamichi     Kumamoto Daiichi said the     pack is close behind us. [09:21] Sakamichi     The board on the referee car just said     there's two guys riding ahead of the pack. [09:30] Sakamichi     I thought it might be possible that [09:34] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san and Kaburagi-kun will     catch up and ride with us again. [09:40] Sakamichi     I'm sure we'll be faster     when there's five of us. [09:45] Imaizumi     Aoyagi-san and Kaburagi? [09:48] Teshima     They could catch up? [09:51] Teshima     Faster with five? [09:54] Sakamichi     Yeah. [09:56] Sakamichi     But it's still just my imagination. [09:59] Teshima     Since we've fallen behind the front,     it means we're closer to the back. [10:04] Teshima     I hadn't even considered that. [10:08] Teshima     I hadn't considered that     we'd increased our odds of [10:10] Teshima     grouping up with our teammates behind us. [10:13] Sakamichi     B-But it's not guaranteed! [10:16] Sakamichi     It's just a possibility! [10:20] Teshima     We can ride with Kaburagi and Aoyagi again. [10:29] Teshima     No. We're in the middle of a race. [10:32] Teshima     And I'm the captain. [10:35] Teshima     That's not happening, Onoda. [10:37] Teshima     Kumamoto Daiichi passed us, [10:40] Teshima     but we're still chasing after the lead pack. [10:45] Teshima     And I... [10:47] Teshima     have abandoned them! [10:50] (Flashback) Teshima     Then this is goodbye. [10:53] Teshima     They're not coming. [10:55] Teshima     We won't slow down to wait for them, either. [10:59] Teshima     Don't look back. [11:00] Teshima     We'll catch up to the front. [11:03] Teshima     We'll chase after them as quickly as we can. [11:05] Teshima     That's an order! Pedal as hard as you can! [11:08] Teshima     We must catch up to Hakone Academy      and Kyoto Fushimi! [11:12] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [11:17] Imaizumi     Onoda's smiling again? [11:20] Teshima     Onoda, let's switch! [11:22] Sakamichi     Th-Thank you. [11:25] Teshima     What's going on, Onoda? [11:28] Teshima     Why are you smiling? [11:30] Teshima     Has the heat made you lose your mind? [11:33] Teshima     I said we're chasing after     the front at full speed. [11:36] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [11:38] Sakamichi     Oh, um... Aoyagi-san promised he'd be back. [11:45] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'm bringing him back. [11:47] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, you said the     eighth reason was hope. [11:51] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Those seven more reasons my choice     is reckless... Is there an eighth? [11:56] (Flashback) Teshima     What? The eighth? [11:58] (Flashback) Teshima     There's... [12:01] (Flashback) Teshima     It's a tiny shred of hope! [12:04] Teshima     You didn't need to remember that. [12:07] Sakamichi     I think they've broken through the seven     obstacles and are headed this way. [12:13] Teshima     Sorry, but that's too optimistic. [12:17] Teshima     We're heading for the front     as quickly as we can. [12:21] Teshima     How will they catch up? [12:23] Sakamichi     The mountains were probably hard for them. [12:27] Sakamichi     But this course [12:29] Sakamichi     has been a gently sloping downhill     since we exited the tunnel. [12:35] Sakamichi     I'm sure they'll catch up. [12:38] Sakamichi     After all, [12:40] Sakamichi     they're sprinters. [12:48] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san... [12:50] Aoyagi     What is it? [12:54] Fan     They're faster than the     guys we've seen so far. [12:56] Fan     The wind was making the leaves shake. [12:59] Fan     They're the guys who competed     for yesterday's sprint. [13:02] Kaburagi     I can hear the fans saying we're fast,      but this is normal, right? [13:08] Kaburagi     I'm an all-rounder, not a sprinter. [13:12] Aoyagi     You're right. [13:21] Teshima     No, stay strong. [13:24] Teshima     Putting your hopes in the guys behind     you is proof you're wavering. [13:27] Teshima     Don't turn back, Teshima Junta. [13:30] Teshima     Aoyagi is a good guy. [13:32] Teshima     We've fought and eaten     together for three years. [13:36] Teshima     Pick up the pace! [13:38] Teshima     Earnest, silent, and     considerate of his juniors... [13:43] Teshima     But I've abandoned him! [13:45] Teshima     He's not coming! [13:48] Teshima     Let's go faster! [13:50] Fan     It's the three-man Sohoku team! [13:52] Fan     You can do it! [13:55] Fan     Some guys are coming from behind! [13:56] Fan     There's two of them! [13:59] Teshima     Two? [14:01] Teshima     No, it's some other team. [14:04] Teshima     They're chasing after us     like Kumamoto Daiichi did. [14:07] Teshima     Don't turn back, Teshima Junta! [14:18] Teshima     I can't let them catch up to us! [14:21] Sakamichi     Teshima-san! [14:23] Sakamichi     Behind us! Look behind us! [14:28] Teshima     Wishes made so long ago... [14:33] Teshima     sometimes come true. [14:39] (Flashback) Teshima     It's finally over. [14:40] (Flashback) Teshima     Laundry, cleanup,      and prepping for tomorrow... [14:44] (Flashback) Teshima     Working support for the Inter-High     is harder than I thought. [14:48] (Flashback) Teshima     Being a first-year is hard. [14:50] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Yeah. [14:53] (Flashback) Teshima     But Aoyagi... [14:55] (Flashback) Teshima     Someday, let's race in the Inter-High. [14:59] (Flashback) Teshima     Let's compete on the ultimate stage. [15:02] (Flashback) Teshima     Let's do it by the time we're third-years. [15:06] (Flashback) Teshima     I'll be a climber, and you'll be a sprinter. [15:10] (Flashback) Teshima     Just kidding. [15:12] (Flashback) Aoyagi     When the time comes,     I'll pull you to the mountains. [15:24] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm counting on you. [15:26] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Yeah. [15:33] Teshima     Our small wish... [15:40] Teshima     Onoda, are those... [15:42] Sakamichi     Yes. They're yellow jerseys. [15:46] Teshima     I'd given up hope long ago, but... [15:52] Teshima     Why do you always come [15:57] Teshima     to save me only when I'm in trouble? [16:04] Teshima     You idiot! [16:07] Teshima     Aoyagi! [16:12] Aoyagi     I brought the idiot back again, Junta. [16:18] Teshima     So casually, and without a     single change in expression... [16:23] Teshima     How can you be there like that? [16:28] Teshima     I see them, Onoda. [16:31] Teshima     I see them, too. [16:35] Teshima     The teammates I thought     would never come back. [16:42] Kaburagi     We're here, Aoyagi-san. [16:44] Kaburagi     Three yellow jerseys. [16:46] Kaburagi     We're almost to our team. [16:49] Kaburagi     It's Onoda-san, Imaizumi-san,     and Teshima-san. [16:52] Kaburagi     This is crazy. It feels     like it's been so long. [16:55] Kaburagi     We're almost there. [17:03] Teshima     Aoyagi... [17:06] Teshima     That shred of hope... [17:09] Teshima     The tiny wish I mentioned then... [17:12] Teshima     Those wishes... [17:15] Teshima     As we're struggling, they suddenly come true. [17:20] Teshima     That's how it is. [17:24] Teshima     I met you the day I was     thinking about quitting cycling. [17:30] (Flashback) Aoyagi     ..."one" for number one. [17:33] Teshima     I failed to make it to the Inter-High,      but you charmed me. [17:37] Teshima     When I had lost hope, you asked me      if I wanted to be your partner. [17:43] (Flashback) Teshima     We're a two-man team. [17:47] Teshima     During our second-year training camp, [17:49] Teshima     when I had given up hope,     you told me to keep riding. [17:53] (Flashback) Aoyagi     We'll go together. [17:56] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Otherwise, there's no point. [18:00] Teshima     During this year's training camp, [18:02] Teshima     in the final sprint of my race against Koga, [18:07] Teshima     you were the only one who believed in me. [18:10] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Junta, win! [18:13] Teshima     And now, you promised you'd return. [18:17] Teshima     You actually left the team and returned [18:22] Teshima     with our teammate in tow. [18:29] Teshima     Aoyagi... [18:31] Teshima     Our two-man team... [18:35] Teshima     can still ride at this Inter-High! [18:46] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun and Aoyagi-san     have just rejoined the team! [18:51] Kaburagi     Sorry we're late! [18:53] Teshima     How have you been, Kaburagi? [18:55] Kaburagi     Good, sir! [18:56] Teshima     Well done making it back! [18:58] Teshima     You shouldn't have fallen     behind if you're feeling good! [19:01] Kaburagi     Sorry! [19:03] Imaizumi     In this precarious situation,     we got five of our members together. [19:09] Imaizumi     Just like Onoda said. [19:12] Teshima     Koga did? [19:14] Kaburagi     He waited for me [19:16] Kaburagi     and pushed my back during the climb. [19:20] Kaburagi     I was really grateful. [19:23] Sakamichi     But you're most grateful     to Aoyagi-san, right? [19:27] Kaburagi     What are you talking about? [19:29] Kaburagi     Aoyagi fell behind, like me. [19:32] Kaburagi     We had no choice but to work together. [19:35] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san left the team by himself     so he could go back and save you. [19:42] Kaburagi     Huh? [19:43] Sakamichi     Teshima-san tried to stop him, but he     promised to bring you back and left. [19:48] Kaburagi     A-Are you being serious? [19:55] (Flashback) Aoyagi     So follow me. Don't fall behind. [19:59] Kaburagi     Seriously? [20:02] Aoyagi     Yeah. [20:03] Kaburagi     Wh-Why didn't you say so? [20:07] Aoyagi     I told you a bunch of times. [20:10] Kaburagi     Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-Then... [20:16] Kaburagi     I owe you the most! [20:19] Aoyagi     Yeah. [20:23] Sakamichi     You just noticed, Kaburagi-kun? [20:25] Kaburagi     Huh? [20:27] Kaburagi     I said some pretty rude things, didn't I? [20:31] Aoyagi     Yeah. [20:33] Kaburagi     Then I'm the most sorry to you! [20:47] Aoyagi     I'm back, Junta! [20:51] Teshima     Yeah! Somewhere in my heart,      I believed this would happen, Aoyagi! [20:57] Teshima     Thanks for coming back! [21:01] Teshima     There's five of us. [21:02] Teshima     Kyoto Fushimi, Hakone Academy, and     Kumamoto Daiichi are ahead of us. [21:06] Teshima     Naruko's working hard on his own. [21:09] Teshima     Sprinters to the front! [21:11] Teshima     Sohoku is accelerating! [21:14] Teshima     We'll work together and      catch up to the lead pack! [21:17] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [21:19] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [21:21] Teshima     We're going! [21:23] Sakamichi     To the front! [21:29] Manami     Once these flats end,     we'll be in the mountains. [21:36] Manami     You'll come, won't you, Sakamichi-kun? [23:14] Kaburagi     For a minute there,      I thought we were done for. [23:18] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san, I'm seriously     most grateful to you. [23:21] Teshima     Then you can't be rude to him anymore. [23:23] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. Sorry, Aoyagi-san. [23:27] Sakamichi     How did you and Aoyagi-san      make it back here? [23:29] Kaburagi     Well... [23:31] Kaburagi     I-It's a secret! [23:33] Aoyagi     Together we sang Love— [23:34] Kaburagi     Aoyagi!

[02:37] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? What? Where? [02:38] (Flashback) Naruko     Onoda-kun! Showoff! [02:40] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I'm losing my desire to stop them. SIGN    Kimitaka [02:42] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Sorry for making such a fuss. [02:44] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Sorry! [02:46] Aoyagi     I'll have to keep an eye     on him during the race. [02:50] (Flashback) Koga     Hey, thanks for coming. [02:54] (Flashback) Koga     Let's get this meeting started. [02:56] (Flashback) Koga     We won't be practicing riding,      but stay focused. [03:00] (Flashback) All     Yes, sir! [03:03] (Flashback) Kaburagi     That's a huge monitor. [03:06] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Are we gonna watch a movie or something? [03:08] (Flashback) Koga     It's data. [03:09] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Data? [03:11] (Flashback) Koga     Road racing is also a     battle against the road. [03:14] (Flashback) Koga     The upperclassmen used     to say it all the time. [03:18] (Flashback) Koga     This is data on this year's     Tochigi Inter-High course. [03:24] (Flashback) Koga     I attached a camera to my bike     and rode the whole thing myself. [03:29] (Flashback) All     What? [03:30] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Whoa! [03:31] (Flashback) Koga     I told Aoyagi and Teshima what I was doing. [03:34] Imaizumi     He rode the whole course alone? [03:37] Naruko     Is this four-eyes serious? [03:39] Naruko     He said it so casually, but that's... [03:42] Sakamichi     Koga-san is amazing! [03:45] (Flashback) Koga     I felt things like small gaps and      challenging sections not on the map. [03:52] (Flashback) Koga     And now, I'll tell you all about them. [03:54] (Flashback) All     Yes, sir! [03:59] (Flashback) Koga     That's all from me. [04:02] (Flashback) Koga     To round things off,      I have a question for you. [04:07] (Flashback) Koga     Is there anything you want     to try at the Inter-High? [04:11] (Flashback) Koga     If you're always on      the defensive, you can't win. [04:13] (Flashback) Koga     You'll never get any chances unless you try. [04:16] (Flashback) Koga     Those are Junta's words. [04:19] (Flashback) Koga     It doesn't matter what it is. [04:20] (Flashback) Koga     We'll go over them and incorporate anything     that seems possible into our orders. [04:24] (Flashback) Koga     You can speak freely. [04:25] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I want to cross the finish line! [04:27] (Flashback) Naruko     Hey, hotshot! That's mine! [04:29] (Flashback) Naruko     Saying it first doesn't mean you get it! [04:30] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I'll be our ace and win the race! [04:32] (Flashback) Kaburagi     After all, I'm an all-rounder! [04:34] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'd like to go for the sprint. [04:37] (Flashback) Naruko     I'll be our ace! [04:39] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Why not let me do it? [04:40] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Your hair makes you stand out enough already. [04:43] (Flashback) Naruko     Well, yeah. [04:44] (Flashback) Naruko     But you stand out the     most by finishing first! [04:46] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I'll do it! Seriously, I'll go anywhere! [04:48] (Flashback) Naruko     No, me! [04:49] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Forget about you. [04:49] (Flashback) Koga     No one's in agreement. [04:51] (Flashback) Kaburagi     I can do it! [04:55] (Flashback) Koga     Onoda. [04:56] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? [04:58] (Flashback) Koga     Don't you have anything? [04:59] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, well... [05:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I just want to ride as hard     as I can and help the team. [05:07] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, but... [05:10] (Flashback) Sakamichi     If I can make just one request... [05:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I made a promise over the winter. [05:19] (Flashback) Sakamichi     If possible... [05:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'd like to race against Hakone     Academy's Manami Sangaku-kun. [05:25] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Somewhere. [05:27] Koga     Race... [05:29] Koga     I never thought I'd hear that word     come from Onoda's mouth. [05:32] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, actually... [05:34] (Flashback) Sakamichi     When I ran into Manami-kun, [05:36] (Flashback) Sakamichi     we talked about how nice the     second day's mountains will be. [05:40] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But only if it's possible. [05:44] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What's important is the team's victory. [05:48] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I just... [05:50] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I just want to give everything     I have down to the very last drop. [05:56] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I want to experience that kind     of race against Manami-kun again. [06:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That's all. [06:08] (Flashback) Koga     You were last year's hero.     What are you talking about? [06:11] (Flashback) Koga     No one deserves to be selfish as much as you. [06:17] (Flashback) Naruko     Jeez, Onoda-kun. [06:18] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Yeah, you're being selfish. [06:20] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Let's do what we can to make that happen. [06:24] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, no, no, no! Guys! [06:26] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It doesn't have to happen! Really! [06:29] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Don't be shy. [06:30] (Flashback) Koga     I'll talk to Junta. [06:33] (Flashback) Koga     I'm sure it'll depend on the situation,     but I'll ask him to consider it. [06:37] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But... [06:39] Koga     The second day's mountains, right? [06:42] Teshima     Next! Aoyagi, move up and pull! [06:44] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [06:46] Teshima     Keep up the pace! Focus! [06:48] Teshima     We'll catch up to the front! [06:50] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [06:51] Sakamichi     I'll pull next! [06:53] Teshima     Wait. [06:55] Teshima     Onoda, you don't need to     be part of the rotation. [06:58] Teshima     Save your energy on these flats. [07:00] Sakamichi     Huh? [07:02] Teshima     That's an order, Onoda. [07:04] Teshima     Take the second day's mountain result! [07:08] Sakamichi     But, um, I... [07:10] Teshima     It's starting to seem possible. [07:13] Teshima     We could reach the front. [07:15] Teshima     Be the motivation that makes us      achieve that possibility, Onoda. [07:20] Sakamichi     Motivation... [07:21] Teshima     You only need one goal     when you're struggling. [07:27] Teshima     We'll take you to the mountains. [07:30] Imaizumi     That's right. [07:31] Imaizumi     I'll pull you there. [07:34] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun. [07:36] Imaizumi     Onoda, don't speak and follow me! [07:40] Teshima     Imaizumi. [07:44] Sakamichi     Guys... [07:46] Sakamichi     Thank you. [07:48] Sakamichi     Understood. I... I... [07:53] Sakamichi     I'll conserve my energy with all my might! [07:56] Kaburagi     Onoda-san. [07:57] Teshima     That's not something you     do with all your might. [08:00] Teshima     Let's go, Sohoku! [08:02] All     Yeah! [08:05] Fan     The lead pack is here! [08:06] Fan     Hakone Academy's in front! [08:08] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi's behind them! [08:11] Fan     There's one Sohoku rider behind them! [08:14] Fan     There are thirteen guys in the lead pack! [08:17] Izumida     Fall back, Doubashi. Well done. [08:20] Izumida     Yuto, to the front. [08:22] Izumida     Your mountains are finally here. [08:25] Yuto     Yes, sir. [08:27] Fan     They sent their climber to the front! [08:29] Fan     Hakone Academy is in     their mountain formation! [08:32] Izumida     The course is entering a mountain     stage with a wide, scenic road. [08:37] Izumida     Beyond it rises the treasure of Gunma, [08:40] Izumida     which houses the Ikaho Hot Spring      along its slope. [08:43] Izumida     Rising 1,391 meters above sea level is [08:47] Izumida     Mount Haruna. [08:50] Izumida     The second day's mountain line is at     the highest point of National Route 33, [08:57] Izumida     which runs along the mountainside,      at 1,170 meters. [09:06] Kuroda     Why do you keep glancing behind you, Manami? [09:10] Kuroda     Focus on the race. [09:12] Manami     I was just thinking about how nice the     weather is and wanted to check out the view. [09:17] Manami     Just kidding. [09:19] Manami     I can't fool you, can I? [09:20] Kuroda     No. [09:22] Kuroda     You're not worried about      Kyoto Fushimi behind us, are you? [09:25] Kuroda     Is it someone behind them? [09:28] Manami     Yes. [09:30] Kuroda     We're riding hard at the Inter-High,      but you're thinking about your own race? [09:36] Manami     I suppose I am. [09:38] Manami     Wouldn't it be a waste not to race here? [09:42] Manami     The team's doing well, and I took the      first day's mountains like I was ordered to. [09:48] Kuroda     Is it Sohoku's four-eyes? [09:50] Manami     Yes, him. [09:52] Manami     We made a promise. [09:55] Kuroda     You can't. [09:58] Kuroda     I've been asked to lead the     team through the mountains. [10:02] Kuroda     We have over ten kilometers      of climb ahead of us. [10:04] Kuroda     You should rest. [10:05] Kuroda     If we send anyone, it'll be Yuto. [10:08] Kuroda     The Inter-High has a third day. [10:10] Kuroda     If we send our ace climber today [10:13] Kuroda     and you're too tired to ride tomorrow,     then our strategy will be ruined. [10:20] Kuroda     Huh? [10:21] Manami     Kuroda-san. [10:23] Manami     Riding hard today so I can take it easy tomorrow [10:28] Manami     is not how I'm approaching this race. [10:33] Kuroda     His focus is increasing as we     get closer to the mountains. [10:37] Manami     Sorry. When he shows up, I'm going. [10:42] Doubashi     What kind of reason is that, Manami? [10:45] Doubashi     He overrode Kuroda-san's orders. [10:47] Kuroda     There's no argument that will convince him. [10:52] Kuroda     Riding without reason      is his greatest strength. [10:56] Kuroda     I understand what you want. [10:59] Kuroda     But... [11:00] Kuroda     But, Manami, there are two conditions     that will prevent you from going. [11:05] Kuroda     The first is if Sohoku doesn't make it here. [11:09] Kuroda     If the four-eyes in question never shows up. [11:12] Kuroda     I don't know why he even thinks     Sohoku will catch up. [11:17] Kuroda     But he's an oddball. [11:20] Manami     What's the second one? [11:22] Kuroda     Second... [11:24] Kuroda     We're entering the final     mountains of the second day. [11:27] Kuroda     Kyoto Fushimi and Midousuji     haven't won any titles yet. [11:31] Kuroda     He'll make his move before long. [11:33] Kuroda     You won't have time to race. [11:38] Doubashi     Kuroda-san! Kyoto Fushimi's on the move! [11:41] Doubashi     There's three of them! [11:42] Doubashi     Second-year climber Kiriya and     third-year launching pad Mizuta [11:46] Doubashi     are accompanying their ace, Midousuji! [11:51] Kuroda     Yuto, Manami! [11:53] Kuroda     Stop them! [12:00] Yuto     You're not going anywhere. [12:01] Manami     You heard him. [12:04] Manami     You're right. If they get ahead,      then I won't get to race, Kuroda-san. [12:13] Mizuta     They're so fast! [12:15] Kiriya     They stopped us immediately. [12:17] Kiriya     These are Hakone Academy's climbers? [12:19] Midousuji     One more time. [12:22] Midousuji     We'll attack again! [12:24] Mizuta     What? [12:25] Kiriya     Huh? [12:26] Kiriya     Wait. Wait, Midousuji-kun. [12:28] Kiriya     We're still out of breath. [12:29] Kiriya     We can't do that again right away. [12:31] Midousuji     We will. [12:34] Midousuji     Kiriya-kun, are you stronger     than the two in front of us? [12:39] Kiriya     Wh-What? [12:40] Kiriya     Of course not. [12:41] Kiriya     They're good enough to be aces in     terms of both strength and power. [12:44] Midousuji     Right? Then there's only     one thing you can do. [12:50] Midousuji     If you're inferior in every way,      then all you can do [12:55] Midousuji     is pedal like your life depends on it. [12:59] Midousuji     And now is the time. [13:04] Midousuji     Resume Phase 28! [13:06] Midousuji     Keep pedaling until your legs break! [13:09] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi is accelerating! [13:11] Fan     They're attacking again! [13:13] Midousuji     Our attack must succeed, Zakus! [13:18] Kuroda     Manami, Yuto! After them! [13:21] Yuto     Got it. [13:21] Manami     I know. [13:23] Manami     I'll stop this attack. [13:26] Manami     After all, I have my own plans. [13:28] Manami     Go! [13:31] Kiriya     They caught up in a flash! [13:39] Kiriya     And he passed us! [13:42] Mizuta     The wind? [13:43] Kiriya     I thought I saw wings for a second. [13:48] Manami     Sorry, but you're not going     anywhere, Midousuji-kun. [13:52] Kiriya     They're monsters. They're on     a different level from us. [13:55] Kiriya     We can't fight against them and win! [13:59] Midousuji     Manami. [14:03] Midousuji     It's been a while. [14:05] Manami     I don't think we've spoken     since last year's Inter-High. [14:09] Midousuji     A guy who enjoys fighting. [14:12] Midousuji     A guy whose talents are wasted. [14:15] Midousuji     A guy who isn't a Zaku. [14:18] Midousuji     The guy who lost to Sakamichi last year! [14:26] Mizuta     Brutal! He's hitting him where it hurts. [14:29] Mizuta     If I were in his position, that's the      last thing I'd want to hear. [14:36] Manami     Oh, that? [14:38] Mizuta     Huh? [14:40] Manami     If losing bothers me,      I should remove my jersey. [14:45] Manami     That's what he told me. [14:47] Manami     But I'm still wearing mine. [14:52] Manami     I realized then [14:54] Manami     that I was still in the middle. [14:57] Manami     It's not over yet. [15:00] Manami     I'm glad I didn't end it. [15:03] Manami     Someone even faster than me     is waiting beyond the peak. [15:08] Manami     What could be more exciting? [15:11] Manami     I can go all out at the peak. [15:13] Manami     It means I'll feel even more     alive than I ever have before. [15:21] Midousuji     This man, Manami... [15:24] Midousuji     I thought he'd given up after being     hurt last year, but now I know. [15:32] Midousuji     He's in perfect condition. [15:35] Midousuji     This attack won't go well. [15:39] Midousuji     Resume Phase 28, Zakus! [15:43] Kiriya     I-I can't! Midousuji-kun, let's fall back! [15:47] Kiriya     This is reckless! [15:48] Mizuta     Hey, Kiriya! [15:49] Kiriya     This attack can't possible succeed— [15:52] Midousuji     I said we're doing it now. [15:59] Midousuji     I have my reasons, but you don't need     to know what they are right now. [16:05] Midousuji     We have to make it happen now. [16:14] Midousuji     Cheers from behind? Could it be? [16:20] Midousuji     They're coming now? [16:25] Kuroda     Hey, you hear that? [16:27] Doubashi     Yeah, Kuroda-san. [16:29] Kyoto     There's noise coming from     behind us, Yamaguchi-san! [16:31] Kyoto     Is someone coming? [16:33] Kuroda     A Sohoku rider? [16:36] Doubashi     There's a lot of them. It's not just one rider. [16:39] Doubashi     That's... [16:43] Ise     I see the front! [16:45] Ise     Higo blooms again! [16:47] Manami     It's not Sohoku. [16:48] Kuroda     K-Kumamoto Daiichi. [16:50] Ise     That's right! [16:51] Ise     We're the Higo Superexpress,     Kumamoto Daiichi! [16:56] Mizuta     Did they pass them? [16:58] Doubashi     It's not Sohoku? [17:03] Midousuji     My Zakus reported that they     were plotting to catch up later [17:07] Midousuji     while they were in the pack. [17:12] Midousuji     But they actually did it. [17:14] Midousuji     What perfect timing. [17:17] Midousuji     I'll use everything I can. [17:20] Midousuji     Now's my chance. [17:21] Midousuji     We'll use this confusion to our advantage. [17:26] Ise     I'm the rumored Kumamoto Daiichi captain,      the Demon Sergeant Ise Shinya! [17:32] Ise     Surprised? This is Kumamoto Daiichi! [17:34] Ise     No one's team is stronger than ours! [17:36] Ise     Our team makes the impossible possible! [17:40] Fan     Kumamoto is amazing! [17:42] Fan     They caught up in the mountains! [17:45] Kuroda     Seriously, Kumamoto Daiichi? [17:47] Kuroda     They passed Sohoku? [17:49] Ise     Fujiwara, once we catch up to them,     wait for an opportunity to jump ahead. [17:53] Ise     I expect you to win the     mountain result number tag. [17:55] Fujiwara     You can count on me, Ise-san. [17:57] Fujiwara     I promise I won't let Kumamoto Daiichi down! [18:02] Kuroda     Did Kyoto Fushimi get ahead     while we were distracted? [18:08] Kuroda     No, they didn't. [18:10] Midousuji     What's important during road     races is to predict the future [18:16] Midousuji     during any confusion and calmly     deceive the eyes of others. [18:21] Midousuji     Kuroda-kun is keeping an eye on me. [18:25] Midousuji     First, I have to make him lower his guard. [18:28] Midousuji     We're skipping ahead to Phase 108. [18:30] Midousuji     Pretend you're exhausted. [18:31] Mizuta     Got it. [18:32] Kiriya     Yes, sir. [18:33] Midousuji     Tell the other Zakus, Mizuta-kun. [18:37] Midousuji     Stay toward the right side of the course, [18:39] Midousuji     and let Kumamoto Daiichi come     between us and Hakone Academy. [18:45] Mizuta     What? Are you sure we     should let them join us? [18:48] Mizuta     Their captain just said Kumamoto Daiichi's     team is stronger than anyone else's! [18:53] Midousuji     What? Team strength? [18:58] Midousuji     That's just what they say about themselves. [19:07] Ise     We finally caught up to the front. [19:13] Manami     I was wrong. [19:15] Manami     I thought it was you, Sakamichi-kun. [19:19] Manami     And since no one's left yet,      I thought we could go together. [19:31] Kuroda     He's replenishing his fluids. [19:32] Kuroda     It doesn't look like they'll     attack anytime soon. [19:35] Kuroda     Hey, Manami! How long are you     going to keep looking behind you? [19:42] Midousuji     Now, Zakus! [19:45] Midousuji     Without making a single sound, hold your      breath and silently go all out! [20:01] Izumida     Kyoto Fushimi? [20:02] Izumida     Yuki! [20:12] Aoyagi     Can you do it, Junta? [20:14] Teshima     Probably. It's pretty likely. [20:18] Aoyagi     Really? [20:19] Teshima     Everyone's motivated. [20:22] Teshima     In the next few minutes,      we should see the lead pack. [20:27] Fan     Look, it's Sohoku! [20:28] Fan     Last year's champions     are racing up the slope! [20:31] Fan     They fell apart once, but they're      back together again! [20:34] Fan     They'll catch up to the front! [20:36] Teshima     Onoda! [20:38] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [20:39] Teshima     Were you able to conserve your energy? [20:41] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [20:43] Teshima     I have orders for you! [20:45] Teshima     Once we join the lead pack, jump ahead! [20:47] Teshima     Push Hakone Academy's Manami aside and     cross the second day's mountain line first! [20:52] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [20:54] Kaburagi     I see them! [20:59] Teshima     Damn. [21:01] Teshima     We caught up. [21:02] Teshima     Hakone Academy, Kyoto Fushimi, and Naruko. [21:06] Teshima     We're here. [21:08] Teshima     Sorry to keep you waiting! [21:14] Teshima     What is this? Kumamoto Daiichi? [21:18] Sakamichi     Teshima-san, the Kumamoto Daiichi     team that passed us is scattered. [21:23] Teshima     Yeah. Don't drop your pace. [21:26] Teshima     Let's keep going. [21:27] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [21:29] Teshima     What's going on? What in the world happened? [23:07] Teshima     I'm hungry. [23:09] Teshima     Let's get something on the way home. [23:11] Koga     I want pizza. [23:12] Teshima     There it is! Your suggestion for pizza! [23:14] Teshima     Let's get something else     once in a while, like curry. [23:17] Koga     We're getting pizza today. [23:18] Koga     I decided we would this morning. [23:20] Teshima     You said the same thing when     we got pizza last time. [23:22] Koga     Pizza! [23:23] Teshima     No, we're getting curry today! [23:25] Teshima     Aoyagi, say something.

SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    LINE.18 Naruko's Determination [02:11] Doubashi     Team Sohoku was supposed to have     fallen behind on the first climb. [02:17] Doubashi     I've never seen anyone come back     after taking a beating like that. [02:20] Doubashi     And... [02:22] Doubashi     What are you doing back there, orange? [02:25] Kaburagi     I've got God on my side, pig! [02:31] Kaburagi     We caught up to Hakone Academy      and Kyoto Fushimi! [02:34] Kaburagi     Now we're back to square one! [02:35] Kaburagi     Yeah! [02:39] Manami     Square one... [02:43] Sakamichi     I caught up, Manami-kun! [02:46] Manami     Hey. You came, Sakamichi-kun. [02:48] Sakamichi     I got permission to go ahead of the group. [02:52] Sakamichi     They told me to compete     for the mountain result. [02:54] Sakamichi     We can race. [02:56] Sakamichi     Let's go, Manami-kun, [02:58] Sakamichi     to the very top of that mountain! [03:04] Yamaguchi     He climbed back up here to race? [03:07] Yamaguchi     And he can afford to enjoy that     competition at the Inter-High? [03:11] Yamaguchi     It's too bad, though. [03:13] Yamaguchi     Under these circumstances... [03:16] Manami     Sorry, Sakamichi-kun. [03:17] Sakamichi     Huh? [03:19] Manami     We probably can't fight. [03:22] Sakamichi     What? But it's okay. [03:25] Sakamichi     I even got permission. [03:27] Sakamichi     They let me conserve my energy for this. [03:29] Manami     That first-year just said     we're back to square one, [03:33] Manami     meaning you caught up to the lead pack [03:34] Manami     with all your members, and we're     back to our starting condition. [03:39] Manami     But right now... [03:41] Manami     Unfortunately, we're not back     to square one, Sakamichi-kun. [03:50] Teshima     Have you noticed, Imaizumi? [03:52] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [03:52] Aoyagi     Junta! [03:53] Teshima     Yeah, I know. [03:55] Kaburagi     What's wrong? [03:56] Kaburagi     We caught up to the lead pack. [03:58] Kaburagi     Don't we just need to let Onoda-san go now? [04:01] Teshima     You idiot. Look closely, Kaburagi. [04:04] Teshima     Count the number of guys from each team. [04:07] Kaburagi     Huh? [04:08] Teshima     There isn't enough of them. [04:09] Teshima     This isn't the lead pack! [04:12] Kaburagi     What? [04:13] Kaburagi     Which means... they're farther ahead? [04:15] Kaburagi     There are guys even farther ahead than this? [04:18] Teshima     Hakone Academy is missing two. [04:19] Teshima     Kyoto Fushimi is missing three. [04:21] Teshima     At the very least, there are     five riders in the lead! [04:25] Teshima     And among them are Shinkai,     Ashikiba, and Midousuji. [04:29] Teshima     Some of their teams' strongest members. [04:31] Teshima     Both teams have already made their move. [04:36] Manami     The race spans hours, [04:39] Manami     but a few minutes or even seconds     of missed timing can prevent [04:43] Manami     things from going as planned. [04:45] Manami     You don't get to do what you     should've been able to do. [04:47] Manami     That's road racing, isn't it? [04:50] Sakamichi     Huh? What are you talking about, Manami... [04:52] Manami     It's okay. [04:53] Manami     I'm sure the opposite will happen eventually. [04:57] Teshima     Are you ready to go now, Imaizumi? [05:00] Imaizumi     Yes, sir! [05:01] Teshima     Onoda! [05:02] Sakamichi     Y-Yes? [05:03] Teshima     I'm changing your orders! [05:05] Sakamichi     Huh? [05:06] Teshima     The situation is different     from what we expected. [05:08] Teshima     The lead pack has already made its     move far sooner than we anticipated. [05:13] Teshima     We've completely fallen behind! [05:21] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun's moving up? [05:24] Teshima     You and Imaizumi race up Mount Haruna [05:27] Teshima     and do whatever it takes to      catch up to the lead pack! [05:29] Sakamichi     The lead pack? With Imaizumi-kun? [05:32] Sakamichi     Huh? [05:33] Sakamichi     Manami-kun... [05:35] Teshima     Go, Onoda! [05:41] Teshima     O... noda... [05:48] Sakamichi     S-Sorry. [05:51] Sakamichi     No, I know. Sorry. [05:53] Sakamichi     I know... [05:55] (Flashback) Manami     That's road racing, isn't it? [06:00] Teshima     Onoda... [06:00] Imaizumi     Onoda... [06:02] Manami     Sakamichi-kun... [06:07] Teshima     Can you do it, Onoda? [06:08] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [06:10] Sakamichi     Sorry, Manami-kun. [06:12] Sakamichi     I... I... [06:17] Sakamichi     I'm going! [06:23] Manami     Yeah, I know. [06:27] Manami     You'll give up everything     you've built up for your goal. [06:32] Manami     And you have to make that     decision in an instant. [06:35] Manami     But every difficult decision you make [06:41] Manami     makes a person stronger. [06:45] Manami     Good grief. If you keep getting stronger, [06:49] Manami     I'll just be more excited for our next race. [06:53] Doubashi     Get up there and pull, Manami. [06:55] Doubashi     It's your job to take us     to the top of the mountain. [06:58] Manami     I know, Bashi-kun. [07:02] Sakamichi     Wait, Imaizumi-kun. [07:04] Imaizumi     You came, Onoda. [07:06] Imaizumi     I'm sure Teshima-san explained     the situation to you. [07:08] Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:09] Imaizumi     Right now, the only thing we can do [07:11] Imaizumi     is to keep on pedaling and     catch up to the lead pack. [07:14] Sakamichi     Yeah. [07:15] Imaizumi     Onoda! [07:16] Sakamichi     What? [07:17] Imaizumi     I'm sorry you didn't get to race. [07:23] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I want to race against Manami Sangaku-kun. [07:26] Imaizumi     I heard you make your     small request in person. [07:32] Imaizumi     You seemed so happy conserving your     energy while we caught up to the front. [07:40] Sakamichi     It's fine. I always wanted     to ride for the team. [07:43] Sakamichi     I can race next time. [07:47] Sakamichi     But if I can be honest, I am disappointed. [07:55] Imaizumi     It's all right. There's always next time. [08:00] Imaizumi     The race isn't over yet. [08:03] Imaizumi     You've saved me countless times. [08:06] Sakamichi     What? Saved you? [08:08] Sakamichi     But I haven't done anything. [08:09] Imaizumi     Until now and during this race,     you've saved me countless times. [08:13] Imaizumi     Just now, too. [08:14] Sakamichi     Huh? Just now? [08:17] Imaizumi     So let me know the next time     you want to do something. [08:21] Imaizumi     I'll do everything I can to     create that opportunity for you. [08:26] Sakamichi     Sure, thanks. [08:28] Imaizumi     Let's focus on the present for now. [08:30] Imaizumi     We'll go as fast as we can, Onoda! [08:32] Sakamichi     Got it, Imaizumi-kun! [08:34] Kaburagi     Hold on! [08:35] Kaburagi     Wait a minute, Teshima-san. [08:37] Kaburagi     This doesn't seem right. [08:39] Kaburagi     Does everyone want the     mountain result that badly? [08:41] Kaburagi     Isn't sending #11 and #111 way     too much for the mountain result? [08:46] Teshima     Kaburagi, you still haven't noticed? [08:50] Teshima     The second day's course layout     is a little bit special. [08:54] Kaburagi     Huh? [08:56] Teshima     If you look closely at the     course map, you can imagine it. [08:59] Teshima     I wasn't expecting them to make     their move this soon, though. [09:03] Teshima     Kyoto Fushimi moved so early     because they're going for it. [09:07] Teshima     And Hakone Academy sent their ace because     they don't want it taken from them. [09:12] Teshima     Today, on the second day, up ahead... SIGN    Day 2     Mountain Line [09:15] Teshima     the mountain line and      finish line are close together. [09:19] Teshima     The guys ahead of us aren't     going for the mountain result. [09:23] Teshima     They're going for what's     past that: the finish line! [09:29] Aya     If the mountain and finish     line are close together, [09:32] Aya     that means we can cheer for them at     both if we get there early, right? [09:35] Aya     That's good news for us, Miki. [09:40] Aya     Huh? Did I say something wrong? [09:43] Miki     No. In road racing, [09:46] Miki     when the mountain and finish line are     close together, it changes your strategy. [09:51] Aya     Miki has that serious look in her eyes again! [09:53] Aya     Uh, but we're in the mountains. [09:56] Aya     Can't our four-eyes work really hard [09:58] Aya     and beat those Kyoto whatever     guys who went on ahead? [10:02] Miki     It's not like that. [10:03] Aya     Huh? [10:04] Miki     If every team near the     front sends their climbers, [10:07] Miki     it'll become a race for the     mountain line, like usual. [10:10] Miki     But if just one team sends their ace,     then the other teams will have to follow suit. [10:16] Miki     Normally, they'd be too exhausted from the     mountain race to go for the finish line. [10:20] Miki     But with today's course layout, [10:24] Miki     they could do it. [10:25] Midousuji     More, more! [10:28] Midousuji     Pull harder, Kiriya-kun! [10:33] Midousuji     Keep going until we pull     ahead of the pests behind us! [10:42] Shinkai     Kyoto Fushimi accelerated again. [10:45] Ashikiba     They're trying to maintain the gap they     established when they first jumped ahead. [10:51] Ashikiba     No, they're trying to widen it. [10:53] Ashikiba     Yuto, don't let them pull ahead. [10:56] Shinkai     I know. [10:59] Ashikiba     Kyoto Fushimi probably plans     to push their climber, Kiriya, [11:03] Ashikiba     who's pulling right now, to the      limit before discarding him. [11:07] Shinkai     Their climber... [11:09] Shinkai     They're sacrificing him? [11:11] Shinkai     That's insane. [11:14] Kiriya     Mizu... Mizuta-san,      my legs are at their limit. [11:18] Kiriya     I can't breathe, either. [11:19] Kiriya     Please switch with me! [11:20] Mizuta     What? [11:23] Mizuta     We've got a plan, so you know... [11:27] Kirita     Please switch with me! [11:29] Kiriya     At this rate, I'll have to      drop out of the Inter-High! [11:32] Mizuta     Just power through it. [11:34] Midousuji     Kiriya-kun, you can complain all you     want once you get off your bike. [11:42] Midousuji     You have two choices. [11:45] Midousuji     Either keep pulling until     you can't and collapse, [11:49] Midousuji     or give up, get off your bike,     and wait for the recovery car. [11:55] Midousuji     Which will it be? [11:56] Mizuta     There's only one choice! [11:58] Kiriya     What? Which? [12:00] Kiriya     In any case, I want to     stay in the Inter-High! [12:07] Midousuji     We pulled ahead. [12:09] Midousuji     And we jumped ahead at the ideal moment. [12:13] Midousuji     In that moment, [12:14] Midousuji     by letting the heedless Kumamoto Daiichi      get between us and the pests, [12:21] Midousuji     we made them drop their guard. [12:24] (Flashback) Kuroda     Hey, Manami! [12:27] (Flashback) Ise     Kumamoto Daiichi's just getting started. [12:30] (Flashback) Ise     Fujiwara, I'm counting on     you to take the mountains. [12:33] (Flashback) Fujiwara     Yes, sir. [12:34] Midousuji     And then... [12:38] (Flashback) Izumida     Kyoto Fushimi? [12:39] (Flashback) Izumida     Yuki! [12:41] (Flashback) Ise     What? [12:42] (Flashback) Fujiwara     Ise-san, Kyoto Fushimi's getting ahead! [12:44] (Flashback) Fujiwara     When did they go? [12:45] (Flashback) Ise     But we're still in the mountains. [12:47] (Flashback) Ise     Why did they send their ace? [12:50] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Yuto, let's go! [12:51] (Flashback) Shinkai     Yes, Ashikiba-san! [12:53] (Flashback) Fujiwara     Ise-san, Hakone Academy's next. [12:55] (Flashback) Ise     What? [12:56] (Flashback) Kuroda     Doubashi, we're going after them! [12:58] (Flashback) Doubashi     Yeah! [12:59] (Flashback) Kumadai     What's going on? [13:00] (Flashback) Kumadai     Kyoto Fushimi is... [13:01] (Flashback) Kurdao     You're in the way, Kumamoto Daiichi! [13:02] (Flashback) Kumadai     Whoa! Why's Hakone Academy     suddenly accelerating? [13:06] (Flashback) Kumadai     It's dangerous. The climbers are about to— [13:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     Look around you! Move, idiots! [13:11] Kuroda     Did he deliberately let Kumamoto Daiichi     in so he could use them as a shield? [13:18] (Flashback) Kuroda     Take Manami and Touichirou with you! [13:21] (Flashback) Kuroda     Damn it! We won't make it in time! [13:23] (Flashback) Kuroda     He's too good at road racing! [13:26] (Flashback) Fujiwara     What should we do, Ise-san? [13:28] (Flashback) Ise     We'll go after them. Accelerate! [13:30] (Flashback) Kumadai     What? But my legs... [13:33] (Flashback) Ise     Why are they sending their aces now? [13:36] (Flashback) Ise     Aren't we going to race     for the mountain line? [13:42] Ise     The only ones left are you and me, Fujiwara. [13:47] Ise     We've fallen behind the lead pack,      and our team is scattered. [13:50] Ise     I'm sorry... [13:51] Fujiwara     That's enough, Ise-san. [13:54] Fujiwara     In any case, let's go for     the finish line together. [13:56] Ise     Fujiwara... [13:58] Fujiwara     Anyway, strength matters in those situations, [14:01] Fujiwara     but I guess animal instincts     are important, too. [14:05] Ise     You mean him? [14:06] Fujiwara     He was the only one who seemed     to be struggling alone, [14:10] Fujiwara     but he saw through Kyoto Fushimi's     plan and stuck right behind them. [14:14] Fujiwara     I felt some kind of tenacity     coming off of him. [14:18] Fujiwara     The man who raced for yesterday's     finish line and placed second. [14:22] Fujiwara     Sohoku's red bean, Naruko Shoukichi! [14:27] Fan     The lead pack's here! [14:28] Fan     Three from Kyoto Fushimi! [14:30] Fan     Two from Hakone Academy     slightly behind them! [14:32] Fan     No, look closer! [14:34] Fan     He's so small, I didn't notice! [14:36] Fan     There's one guy following them! [14:37] Fan     It's Sohoku's #3, the climbing sprinter,      Naruko the Red! [14:41] Naruko     Hey, don't call me small! [14:43] Naruko     Say you didn't notice me     because I'm so fast instead! [14:46] Fan     He snapped back at me while racing... [14:48] Fan     He's amazing. [14:53] Midousuji     Naruko... [14:55] Midousuji     He's the only one who understood     what I was trying to do. [15:01] Midousuji     His desire for victory, his obsession, [15:04] Midousuji     and his wild instincts... [15:06] Midousuji     First yesterday, and now this. [15:09] Midousuji     You really aren't gross! [15:14] Naruko     I won't let them get away, that's all. [15:17] Naruko     Not you, not victory! [15:19] Kiriya     I-I'm at my limit. [15:22] Kiriya     My vision's turning white. [15:23] Kiriya     Captain, Midousuji-kun! [15:26] Kiriya     I wanted to see the third day's     finish line with my own... eyes... [15:31] Midousuji     There's no point in just     seeing the finish line. [15:36] Midousuji     Come on. We're lighter now. [15:38] Midousuji     Accelerate, Mizuta-kun. Let's go even faster. [15:42] Mizuta     G-Got it. [15:43] Midousuji     Climb, climb, climb, climb! [15:47] Midousuji     Keep climbing until we completely     pull ahead of Hakone Academy! [15:52] Mizuta     O-Okay! [15:54] Mizuta     Will he discard me when     he's done with me, too? [15:57] Mizuta     No. No, no, no. [15:58] Mizuta     There's no way. [16:00] Mizuta     I'm the captain. [16:03] Naruko     Hey, purple seaweed. [16:05] Naruko     Why don't you give your     assist a little praise? [16:08] Naruko     #115 worked crazy hard for you. [16:11] Midousuji     What? Praise? [16:13] Midousuji     What's that? [16:15] Midousuji     "Thanks. Good job. I appreciate it." [16:19] Midousuji     What meaning do those words have? [16:24] Midousuji     After being self-satisfied     over what little work you did, [16:27] Midousuji     why would you want praise     from others on top of that? [16:31] Midousuji     There's a side to everyone     that's invisible to others. [16:35] Midousuji     If you're not polishing what's inside,      then what are you doing? [16:39] Midousuji     This is why he gets exhausted so quickly. [16:44] Midousuji     All you need in road racing     is your own strength! [16:51] Midousuji     And, Naruko, you must be     nearing your limit, too. [16:57] Midousuji     You can fall back now. [17:00] Midousuji     Just keeping up with us     must put you at your limit. [17:03] Midousuji     Both your legs and your mental strength. [17:05] Mizuta     Huh? Is that right, #3? [17:08] Mizuta     I see. [17:09] Midousuji     You did well to catch up     to the front by yourself. [17:13] Midousuji     You even withstood my Zakus'     unimpressive attack. [17:17] Midousuji     But there's always a price to pay. [17:23] Midousuji     Though I'm sure you're experiencing     that right now with your own body! [17:27] Naruko     I don't know what you're talking about. [17:29] Naruko     Since I'm such a genius, I might     just make it to the finish line. [17:35] Midousuji     I'm letting you trail behind us like a      goldfish turd because we're not enemies. [17:42] Midousuji     It's because I know you'll     fall on this climb. [17:51] Midousuji     But don't worry. [17:53] Midousuji     I'll tell you that you did a good job     and heap praise on you at the end! [18:01] Midousuji     Phase 37! [18:03] Midousuji     Accelerate, Zaku! [18:05] Midousuji     Shake off Sohoku's Naruko! [18:07] Mizuta     Yeah! [18:08] Naruko     He's right. I'm almost at my limit. [18:11] Naruko     But I made it this far! [18:13] Naruko     I left the hotshot and Onoda behind. [18:15] Naruko     I abandoned my team and came alone! [18:19] Naruko     So I can't just let them leave me behind! [18:23] Naruko     I'll show them! [18:24] Naruko     This is the flashy man from Naniwa's     ultimate, original sprint climb! [18:30] Mizuta     He still had that much strength left? [18:35] Mizuta     What? [18:36] Mizuta     Hey! You're in the way! Move! [18:37] Naruko     I'm doing it on purpose! [18:42] Midousuji     This is nonsense, Naruko. [18:44] Midousuji     Even if you slow us down, you're just     making Hakone Academy happy behind us. [18:50] Midousuji     Mizuta-kun, slip past him and get ahead! [18:53] Mizuta     G-Got it! [18:55] Naruko     I told you, I'm blocking you! [18:57] Midousuji     What do you think you're doing? [18:59] Midousuji     Is this some kind of friendship thing? [19:01] Midousuji     Are you trying to help them? [19:03] Midousuji     Yesterday, you lost to Hakone Academy's     two-meter-tall man because of your reach! [19:08] Naruko     Absolutely not. [19:11] Naruko     But if there's anything I can do with     what little strength I have left, [19:15] Naruko     it's slow down the lead pack! [19:17] Midousuji     But why on earth are you     doing something so stupid? [19:22] Naruko     Maybe it's my imagination, but I     get the feeling someone's trying. [19:27] Naruko     Someone wearing this jersey     is climbing up toward us! [19:30] Midousuji     Climbing? [19:32] Midousuji     That yellow jersey? [19:35] Midousuji     It really is your imagination. [19:37] Midousuji     You overestimate your teammates. [19:40] Midousuji     Didn't you choose to leave them behind? [19:44] Midousuji     They're probably crying right now. [19:47] Midousuji     They must resent you. [19:49] Midousuji     They must've begged you not to go. [19:51] Midousuji     What you're doing right now is repenting,     so you can justify your own actions! [19:58] Mizuta     Ouch... [19:59] Midousuji     Now pass him, Mizuta-kun. [20:02] Midousuji     He's so far past his limit,     he's started imagining things. [20:07] Mizuta     G-Got it. [20:09] Naruko     Repenting? Imagining things? [20:11] Naruko     Limit?

[01:41] Imaizumi     Yeah. [01:42] Imaizumi     Where and what is he doing? [01:45] Imaizumi     We just passed the Kumamoto Daiichi     guys that just barely made it out. [01:49] Imaizumi     We should've caught up by now. [01:51] Sakamichi     But I don't see them. [01:53] Imaizumi     Did you make it to the front? [01:55] Imaizumi     Does that mean you're fighting alone? [02:00] Imaizumi     Onoda, I'll help pull. [02:03] Imaizumi     Let's go faster. [02:04] Sakamichi     Y-You can't! Fall back! [02:07] Sakamichi     You're the ace, Imaizumi-kun! [02:09] Sakamichi     You've been letting me conserve     my strength until now! [02:11] Sakamichi     It's okay! I'll pull! [02:16] Imaizumi     I may be our ace, but I'm only half a man. [02:19] Sakamichi     Huh? [02:21] Imaizumi     Until we started today, I thought     I was a full-fledged ace. [02:25] Imaizumi     But during today's race, I came     to the painful realization [02:29] Imaizumi     that I'm still only half a man. [02:31] Imaizumi     I couldn't help my teammates. [02:32] Imaizumi     I said awful things to my senior. [02:35] Imaizumi     My spirit broke immediately. [02:37] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Recover faster, Teshima-san! [02:40] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Aren't you a climber? [02:45] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Why are you smiling? [02:49] Imaizumi     What was that sound? [02:52] Imaizumi     But... [02:53] Imaizumi     While I'm still a long way away from     being a super ace like Kinjou-san, [02:59] Imaizumi     I'm trying. Let me pull for now. [03:01] Imaizumi     I'm not mature enough to sit     back without doing anything. [03:07] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [03:10] Imaizumi     Onoda, you truly have saved me. [03:15] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun and Aoyagi-san     have just rejoined the team! [03:20] Imaizumi     In this precarious situation,     we got five of our members together. [03:24] Imaizumi     Just like Onoda said. [03:28] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Um, Imaizumi-kun. [03:30] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san and Kaburagi-kun rejoined the team. [03:33] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Y-Yeah, you're right. That's great. [03:36] (Flashback) Imaizumi     They're amazing. [03:39] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Now that there's five of us, I think     we can catch up to Kumamoto Daiichi. [03:43] (Flashback) Sakamichi     And maybe even reach the     lead pack where Naruko-kun is. [03:46] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Y-Yeah, maybe. [03:48] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It's all thanks to you. [03:52] Imaizumi     Thanks to me? [03:54] Imaizumi     He's not making sense again. [03:57] Imaizumi     I made an irremediable mistake. [04:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I've actually been thinking. [04:04] (Flashback) Sakamichi     If you trace events back far enough, [04:06] (Flashback) Sakamichi     sometimes you realize it actually     started with someone small, you know? [04:10] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It's about that. [04:11] (Flashback) Sakamichi     The two of them rejoined the team when     Teshima-san was coming up from behind [04:17] (Flashback) Sakamichi     and Hakone Academy was leaving,     during the first mountain. [04:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I think it's because [04:23] (Flashback) Sakamichi     you decided that we should wait. [04:28] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Wait, what? A-Am I wrong? [04:32] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Sorry. [04:34] Imaizumi     Was that the right decision? [04:39] Imaizumi     Is that the reason Aoyagi-san     and Kaburagi caught up? [04:43] Imaizumi     The reason there are five of us here now? [04:48] Imaizumi     Onoda, how many times [04:55] Imaizumi     are you going to save me? [04:58] Imaizumi     Onoda! You saved me! [05:01] Sakamichi     Huh? [05:02] Imaizumi     You can't know if you've made the right     decision until you've seen the results. [05:06] Imaizumi     That's what you were trying to say. [05:08] Imaizumi     If that's the case, then I'll      work as hard as I can. [05:11] Imaizumi     It's my only option! [05:13] Imaizumi     We'll accelerate as quickly     as we can while rotating.

[02:59] Midousuji     No. This situation... [03:03] Midousuji     is just the opposite! [03:05] Midousuji     We're simultaneously before the finish line [03:08] Midousuji     and 400 meters away from the mountain line. [03:11] Midousuji     Maybe... [03:13] Mizuta     Huh? What?

[04:59] Ashikiba     Just go and get it. [05:01] Yuto     At this distance, it'll have     to be an all-out attack. [05:04] Yuto     If I do that now, [05:06] Yuto     I won't be able to assist you during the     finish line sprint that's coming up. [05:10] Yuto     We made it to this point with an advantage.

[05:33] Ashikiba     You don't understand. [05:35] Ashikiba     We are Hakone Academy. [05:38] Ashikiba     We fight with pride! [05:42] Yuto     Wait! [05:44] Ashikiba     I'll go!

[06:08] Midousuji     And they'll end up losing something important [06:10] Midousuji     because they're so concerned     with something so insignificant. [06:14] Midousuji     As far as I'm concerned, [06:16] Midousuji     colored number tags are useless scraps     of paper before the finish line. [06:21] Midousuji     He actually took the bait. [06:24] Midousuji     I thought they'd send     their assist Shinkai-kun, [06:30] Midousuji     but it's their ace who impatiently left.

Hey, wait... [07:40] Midousuji     Congratulations, King of the Mountain. [07:43] Midousuji     We didn't stand a chance     against your all-out attack. [07:49] Midousuji     It was amazing. [07:51] Midousuji     We wanted the title so badly,     we even sent our captain. [07:57] Midousuji     I can't believe you took it from us. [08:01] Midousuji     Should you have done that as the ace? [08:04] Midousuji     Should you have used up your legs? [08:07] Midousuji     The finish line is at the bottom of the hill. [08:12] Imaizumi     He sent Mizuta to use up     one of Hakone Academy's cards. [08:19] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy had the advantage, [08:21] Imaizumi     but now they're disadvantaged. [08:24] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [08:26] Sakamichi     Why didn't Ashikiba-san stay ahead? [08:30] Sakamichi     He let us catch up so easily. [08:31] Imaizumi     We don't have far to go, [08:33] Imaizumi     but he determined we'd catch him with     our numbers even if he stayed ahead. [08:36] Imaizumi     If it's unlikely he'll stay ahead, it's smarter     to rejoin the group, rest his legs, [08:43] Imaizumi     and stay behind his assistant. [08:45] Midousuji     You must've thought you could     take it easily, Hakone Academy. [08:50] Midousuji     You thought you'd pretend you     didn't want the mountain line, [08:54] Midousuji     approach the line with the pack, [08:57] Midousuji     and send someone at the last second     to take the number tag easily.

[14:11] Imaizumi     I'll ride in front! [14:14] Yuto     Hakone Academy lost their ace. [14:17] Yuto     An ace should save his last bullet     for the finish line sprint, [14:23] Yuto     so he can fire it just before the     finish line and push aside all others. [14:29] Yuto     That's what Midousuji-san     and Imaizumi-san are doing. [14:32] Yuto     But Hakone Academy used ours [14:37] Yuto     to win an insignificant mountain title. [14:41] Yuto     What am I pulling for right now? [14:44] Yuto     It's like carrying a pistol     that's out of bullets. [14:49] Yuto     This has never happened before. [14:52] Yuto     Ashikiba-san is supposed to be calm. [14:54] Yuto     He's intelligent. [14:55] Yuto     He always makes the right choice. [14:58] Yuto     He's kind and strong. [15:01] Yuto     As far as I'm concerned, he's far more     impressive than my other seniors. [15:05] (Flashback) Ashikiba     What is it, Yuto? [15:07] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Think I should cut my hair again? [15:09] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You're right. It's too long. [15:13] (Flashback) Yuto     No, I was just looking. [15:17] (Flashback) Yuto     You're really tall, Ashikiba-san. [15:20] (Flashback) Yuto     Ow... [15:22] Yuto     So I respected you. [15:25] Yuto     But... [15:26] Yuto     Why, Ashikiba-san? [15:29] Yuto     You're not someone to act      thoughtlessly, Ashikiba-san! [15:34] Yuto     If we'd given up the mountain line,     this finish line would've been ours! [15:39] Yuto     Easily! [15:40] Ashikiba     Face forward, Yuto. [15:42] Yuto     Because we're in the middle of a race? [15:44] Ashikiba     That's right. Face forward. [15:46] Yuto     This is pointless! [15:48] Yuto     Hakone Academy has spent all its bullets! [15:51] Ashikiba     I... [15:53] Ashikiba     I haven't given up on the     mountain or finish line yet. [16:05] (Flashback) Yuto     That's the club room. [16:06] (Flashback) Yuto     I've been here once before. [16:12] (Flashback) Yuto     Hello. I'm interested in joining the team. [16:15] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Seriously? [16:16] (Flashback) Hakogaku     He's really a first-year? [16:18] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Crazy, right? [16:20] Hakogaku     Is that true? [16:20] Yuto     They're excited about something... [16:22] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Shinkai-san's brother is here. [16:24] (Flashback) Hakogaku     What? Seriously? [16:26] Yuto     I'll come back another day. [16:28] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Huh? [16:30] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Hey, you. Wanna join the bicycle club? [16:33] (Flashback) Hakogaku     You a first-year? [16:34] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Sorry we didn't notice. [16:36] (Flashback) Hakogaku     We just got some big news. [16:39] (Flashback) Hakogaku     There was a god-like sprinter named     Shinkai-san who graduated last year. [16:43] (Flashback) Hakogaku     His brother is... [16:47] (Flashback) Hakogaku     It's him! [16:49] (Flashback) Hakogaku     What? You found his brother? [16:51] (Flashback) Hakogaku     You're right. [16:52] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Whoa, their faces look so similar. [16:54] Hakogaku     It's Shinkai-san. He looks so young. [16:55] Yuto     You don't need to point... [16:56] Hakogaku     He's a little Shinkai-san. [16:57] Hakogaku     The rumors were true. [16:59] (Flashback) Yuto     Could you stop pointing at me? [17:01] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Do you do the ka-pow pose, too? [17:02] (Flashback) Yuto     I'm not Hayato-kun. I'm Yuto. [17:06] (Flashback) Yuto     Haven't you had enough? [17:08] (Flashback) Yuto     My brother has nothing to do with this. [17:10] (Flashback) Yuto     I'm my own person. [17:12] (Flashback) Yuto     Why are you taking pictures of me?! [17:22] (Flashback) Kuroda     Things are awkward. [17:24] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Since that incident, yeah. [17:27] (Flashback) Hakogaku     In any case, Yuto still hasn't     apologized to second-year Haraguchi. [17:31] (Flashback) Hakogaku     I told him it wasn't his fault. [17:33] (Flashback) Kuroda     Even pandas get mad if you     take pictures of them. [17:36] (Flashback) Kuroda     When I heard Shinkai-san's     brother was coming, [17:39] (Flashback) Kuroda     I thought the club would handle it better. [17:42] (Flashback) Kuroda     That incident has completely     turned things upside down. [17:45] (Flashback) Kuroda     Now we're treating him with kid gloves. [17:49] Kuroda     They did approach him as a group, and go on     about what a god and star his brother was. [17:56] Kuroda     I can see why it annoys him. [17:59] Kuroda     Touichirou doesn't know     how to handle him, either. [18:02] Kuroda     Of course he doesn't. [18:04] Kuroda     He's Shinkai-san's brother. [18:06] (Flashback) Hakogaku     I ran into Yuto in the hallway,     but he didn't even say hi. [18:12] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Maybe he doesn't recognize us yet. [18:14] (Flashback) Hakogaku     What? [18:15] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Shinkai-san spoke pretty highly of me. [18:18] (Flashback) Hakogaku     It came as a shock. [18:19] Kuroda     This is Hakone Academy. [18:21] Kuroda     Only the strong ride. [18:23] Kuroda     That's all we ask. [18:24] Kuroda     Being rebellious isn't a bad thing at all. [18:28] Kuroda     But if he's chosen for the Inter-High team,     the others won't accept it. [18:37] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Damn it! Someone's catching up! [18:39] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Shinkai? [18:40] (Flashback) Hakogaku     He passed the second-years? [18:41] (Flashback) Hakogaku     This is a practice session for     Hakone Academy's best climbers! [18:44] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Raise the pace, Kaneyan! [18:45] (Flashback) Hakogaku     I know, Shino! [18:47] (Flashback) Hakogaku     He may be his brother,     but we can't hold back! [18:50] (Flashback) Yuto     It's time to go. [18:55] (Flashback) Hakogaku     On this steep incline? [18:57] (Flashback) Yuto     And you call yourselves third-years. [19:01] (Flashback) Yuto     Talk about lame. [19:02] (Flashback) Yuto     You're losing to a first-year. [19:05] (Flashback) Yuto     Isn't that right? [19:07] (Flashback) Yuto     Is that a yes? [19:10] (Flashback) Hakogaku     Damn. When I heard Shinkai-san's brother     was a climber instead of a sprinter, [19:16] (Flashback) Hakogaku     I underestimated him. [19:18] (Flashback) Hakogaku     He's a real climber! [19:24] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You're surprising everyone, Yuto. [19:28] (Flashback) Yuto     Oh, uh... [19:30] (Flashback) Yuto     Oh, Ashikiba-san? [19:33] Yuto     This is the guy everyone     thinks is an airhead. [19:37] Yuto     He's a third-year and the ace. [19:40] Yuto     Why is this guy the ace? [19:42] Yuto     Come to think of it,     we've never spoken before. [19:44] (Flashback) Yuto     You're tall. [19:46] (Flashback) Yuto     Your bangs must be annoying. [19:48] (Flashback) Yuto     Why don't you cut them? [19:51] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Did beating the third-years go to your head? [19:54] (Flashback) Yuto     Oh, no. Sorry. [19:57] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Should you be acting like that     in front of a third-year? [20:00] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You're talking to me with your back     turned and a drink in your hand. [20:03] (Flashback) Yuto     Oh, you're right. [20:06] Yuto     What's with this guy? [20:09] Yuto     The team calls him an airhead,     but his words carry a strange weight. [20:14] (Flashback) Ashikiba     When you joined the team, [20:16] (Flashback) Ashikiba     you were told to ask second- and third-years     for advice after practicing with them. [20:22] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Why aren't you doing that? [20:23] Yuto     So he's lecturing me? [20:25] (Flashback) Yuto     I don't need advice from     people weaker than me. [20:29] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Did anyone criticize your attitude? [20:32] (Flashback) Yuto     Not really. [20:33] (Flashback) Yuto     If anything, they said I should be confident. [20:37] (Flashback) Ashikiba     No one wants to criticize     you because of Shinkai-san. [20:42] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Isn't that what you want     to shake off the most? [20:49] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Get on your bike, first-year Shinkai Yuto. [20:53] (Flashback) Yuto     Huh? [20:55] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I really don't like hearing that about guys     I've been riding with for three years. [21:02] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Let's race to the top of that hill.

[06:36] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Oh, that's right. [06:38] Yuto     He's not putting up a fight? [06:41] Yuto     Maybe he really is an airhead. [06:44] Yuto     I hate to admit it, but it's true that     he's stronger and smarter than me. [06:49] Yuto     When he accelerated in front of me,     the pressure I felt was no laughing matter.

[08:52] Ashikiba     I couldn't keep up with the increase in pace. [08:55] Yuto     What is this? Why? [08:58] Yuto     You tried to show off by     saying you hadn't given up.

[09:56] Ashikiba     I made them think Hakone Academy     was finished, so they'd let down their guard. [10:02] Ashikiba     When I decided to attack in the mountains,     I knew I'd be exhausting my legs. [10:08] Ashikiba     I knew I had to plan for what was next.

[13:54] Midousuji     Now this is a surprise. [13:57] Imaizumi     He caught up. [13:58] Imaizumi     What can a climber do in a     race for the finish line? [14:04] Ashikiba     I'm glad he caught up. [14:06] Ashikiba     If I'd pulled for Yuto on the     downhill instead of pretending, [14:10] Ashikiba     they would've realized he     was the ace and crushed us. [14:15] Ashikiba     I'm brilliant. [14:17] Ashikiba     But that face he made when he left... [14:19] Ashikiba     I've never seen Yuto so happy.

[14:38] Fan     All three of them want to pull ahead here! [14:41] Fan     Who will make it through first? [14:45] Fan     No one's giving any ground! [14:47] Fan     A super close-quarters battle! [14:48] Fan     You can hear them clashing! [14:52] Midousuji     Gross! [14:54] Fan     They pulled out of the corner     in the same formation! [14:57] Imaizumi     #16 kept up with our high-risk cornering. [15:02] Imaizumi     It seems he's no ordinary climber. [15:05] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy can't be underestimated. [15:08] Midousuji     So #16 has steeled his resolve. [15:13] Midousuji     He was smiling during the entire corner. [15:17] Midousuji     And I thought Hakone Academy     was out of the race.

[16:03] Imaizumi     He dropped behind Midousuji for a     second and accelerated around him. [16:07] Imaizumi     Did he use Midousuji to     block the wind for a moment? [16:10] Imaizumi     I can't predict what he'll do. [16:12] Imaizumi     His movements are too tricky. [16:14] Imaizumi     And he's always one step ahead. [16:17] Imaizumi     Is he going for the finish line... [16:20] Midousuji     ...from 400 meters? [16:22] Imaizumi     You're not getting away! [16:28] Yuto     Wow, I'm impressed. [16:30] Imaizumi     Where are you going, #16? [16:33] Imaizumi     That was some nice acceleration, [16:35] Imaizumi     but it's a bit early to be     racing for the finish line. [16:38] Imaizumi     Are you in a hurry? [16:46] Yuto     It was a feint. [16:48] Midousuji     A feint? [16:49] Midousuji     He did that on purpose, to see how we'd react? [16:54] Midousuji     When he attacked, I thought he was making     a desperate attempt for the finish line. [17:00] Midousuji     He really is [17:02] Midousuji     Shinkai Hayato's younger brother. [17:05] Midousuji     I'll need to raise my threat level to six. [17:09] Yuto     Was 400 too early, Imaizumi-san? [17:12] Yuto     Then... [17:13] Yuto     How about 300? [17:19] Imaizuimi     He's attacking! [17:20] Imaizumi     Is he starting the second round now? [17:25] Imaizumi     What's with this guy? [17:26] Imaizumi     The usual rules of the finish line      sprint don't apply to him. [17:31] Imaizumi     We caught you. [17:32] Imaizumi     What's the rush? [17:33] Yuto     I thought I had it that time. [17:36] Yuto     You really are fast. [17:39] Midousuji     First it was a feint made     to look like a sprint. [17:42] Midousuji     Then it was a sprint made     to look like a feint. [17:45] Midousuji     Shinkai Yuto! [17:48] Yuto     What is it, Midousuji-san? [17:54] Midousuji     You're contemptuous! [17:56] Yuto     You're a bit close. [17:56] Midousuji     You're two-faced! [17:58] Yuto     Getting close to people is my specialty. [18:01] Midousuji     And you're gross! [18:06] Yuto     What's that? A compliment? [18:09] Midousuji     Looks like I'll have to raise     my threat level to ten. [18:14] Midousuji     He won't even look away after all of that. [18:18] Midousuji     He fully intends to fight. [18:23] Midousuji     I wasn't expecting to find it here. [18:26] Midousuji     I thought it disappeared last year. [18:30] Midousuji     The ghost of Shinkai-kun! [18:33] Yuto     No, I'm alive. [18:37] Yuto     I've got legs. [18:39] Yuto     It is time for round three? [18:43] Fan     There's 250 meters left! [18:45] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi and Hakone Academy     are getting ready to sprint! [18:50] Fan     No, Sohoku attacked a moment earlier! [18:53] Fan     Imaizumi is entering the     finish line sprint in the lead! [18:56] Imaizumi     Now. [18:57] Imaizumi     My body reacted before I could think. [19:00] Imaizumi     I'll keep going like this! [19:02] Imaizumi     I'll stay ahead of them and win! [19:05] Imaizumi     Now! Go, Imaizumi Shunsuke! [19:11] Yuto     Seriously? [19:12] Yuto     He was a second faster! [19:13] Yuto     He just barely got ahead! [19:16] Midousuji     But he's Weakizumi! But he's Crackizumi! [19:19] Midousuji     But he's Chirpizumi! But he's... [19:23] Midousuji     No, no. That doesn't matter now. [19:26] Midousuji     There are pests in front of me! [19:30] Midousuji     I'll knock them aside! [19:32] Midousuji     That's all that matters! [19:34] Imaizumi     I'll win! [19:37] Imaizumi     I've fought for the finish line     in countless races until now. [19:41] Imaizumi     But I've only ever won when my body     reacted instinctively, like it did now. [19:47] Imaizumi     I'll shake off Midousuji and Shinkai. [19:49] Imaizumi     I'll ride in the front! [19:51] Imaizumi     So jump! Jump, jump! [19:54] Imaizumi     My limiter! [19:57] Miki     Imaizumi-kun's coming! [19:58] Sugimoto     He's in front!

[20:09] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I feel like I haven't gone all-out      since I became a second-year. [20:14] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Last year, I had seniors.     I was unconstrained. [20:17] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But this year... [20:19] (Flashback) Imaizumi     It feels like I've had a limiter     installed here the whole time. [20:24] Miki     His limiter... [20:26] Fan     They're catching up! [20:28] Imaizumi     Fall off! Off, off! [20:36] Imaizumi     A limiter? Don't be ridiculous,     Imaizumi Shunsuke. [20:41] Imaizumi     This is nothing. [20:42] Imaizumi     Compared to what they did, this is nothing! [20:46] Imaizumi     If it won't come off, then I'll force it off. [20:49] Imaizumi     The whole team carried this jersey this     far by pushing themselves to their limits! [20:58] Imaizumi     Fall off, limiter! [21:09] Fan     Sohoku's accelerating! [21:11] Fan     He's so fast! [21:11] Fan     What is that sprint? [21:15] Imaizumi     Charge straight ahead, Imaizumi Shunsuke! [21:18] Aya     Why is he so intense? [21:20] Aya     Has he always been that passionate? [21:23] Sugimoto     Imaizumi's always full of passion. [21:25] Sugimoto     He's the most dependable guy on the team. [21:28] Sugimoto     And the strongest. [21:32] Sugimoto     Win, Imaizumi! [21:36] Imaizumi     Of course! [21:38] Miki     He's back to his usual strong-willed self.

[05:01] (Flashback) Aunt     Are you trying to catch them, Akira-kun? [05:04] (Flashback) Yuki     You can do it, Akira! [05:10] (Flashback) Aunt     You're so clumsy, Akira-kun.

[05:39] (Flashback) Aunt     Not long enough to take to the hospital. [05:42] (Flashback) Aunt     Let it go. [05:43] (Flashback) Midousuji     No. [05:45] (Flashback) Aunt     Akira-kun, if you squeeze that tight... [05:59] (Flashback) Midousuji     There were so many. [06:00] (Flashback) Midousuji     They were all around the river. [06:02] (Flashback) Midousuji     They'd light up like "fwoom" and go out. [06:06] (Flashback) Midousuji     I caught one so I could show you. [06:10] (Flashback) Midousuji     Like this. [06:11] (Flashback) Midousuji     But, uh... [06:17] (Flashback) Midousuji     I held it too tight... [06:20] (Flashback) Midousuji     and crushed it. [06:30] (Flashback) Mom     Akira, you're so good at explaining things. [06:37] (Flashback) Mom     You're so good. I feel like I was there. [06:44] (Flashback) Mom     You even include gestures and sounds. [06:48] (Flashback) Mom     It's too bad about the firefly,     but I felt like I could see it. [06:53] (Flashback) Mom     Thanks to you, I got to see the fireflies. [06:57] Midousuji     Thanks to me... [07:00] (Flashback) Midousuji     No, real fireflies are prettier. [07:04] (Flashback) Midousuji     I'll take you there. [07:06] (Flashback) Midousuji     I'll bring a flashlight and show you the way. [07:09] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's dangerous, so I'll lead you by the hand. [07:11] (Flashback) Midousuji     Since firefly season's over     this year, we'll go next year. [07:19] (Flashback) Mom     You're right. [07:20] (Flashback) Mom     Thank you, Akira. I look forward to it. [07:26] Midousuji     I remember that summer clearly. [07:30] Midousuji     The smell of disinfectant. [07:33] Midousuji     The slightly chilly building. [07:36] Midousuji     The hospital was my oasis. [07:40] Midousuji     Happy times and warm, fuzzy feelings. [07:44] Midousuji     If I were to compare it     to a color, it would be... [07:48] Midousuji     Yellow. [07:53] (Flashback) Mom     There's a proper way to catch fireflies. [07:57] (Flashback) Mom     It's like this... [08:05] (Flashback) Nurse     Midousuji-san! [08:11] (Flashback) Mom     I'm okay now. Thank you. [08:16] (Flashback) Nurse     Akira-kun's been coming every day      since summer break started. [08:20] (Flashback) Nurse     He bikes in from far away, right? [08:23] (Flashback) Nurse     He said he's been practicing a lot. [08:26] (Flashback) Nurse     You must be proud of him. [08:30] (Flashback) Mom     He's always been a hard worker. [08:33] (Flashback) Mom     He can be awkward, but he's honest. [08:39] (Flashback) Mom     I wish I could've been with him. [08:46] (Flashback) Mom     I think he's been pushing himself     too hard without me around. [08:51] (Flashback) Mom     He's too proud to give up. [08:55] (Flashback) Mom     He stopped bringing me notices     for class observation day. [09:02] (Flashback) Nurse     Let's talk to the doctor about you     temporarily leaving the hospital. [09:06] (Flashback) Nurse     We can ask Akira-kun for his schedule. [09:09] (Flashback) Mom     You're right. [09:11] (Flashback) Mom     I think he wants to show me      how hard he works. [09:17] (Flashback) Mom     How he grits his teeth. [09:21] (Flashback) Mom     Sometimes I imagine him entering     middle school, then high school. [09:29] (Flashback) Mom     He'll ride that cool bike and keep     moving forward with all his strength. [09:36] (Flashback) Mom     Charging straight ahead at incredible speeds. [09:41] (Flashback) Mom     If I could see him pass everyone     else and take first... [09:46] (Flashback) Mom     I probably wouldn't be able to stop crying. [09:54] (Flashback) Nurse     You must be looking forward to it. [09:55] (Flashback) Nurse     You'd better get well soon, so you can see it. [10:01] (Flashback) Mom     You're right. I'll do my best. [10:05] (Flashback) Mom     It's okay. [10:06] (Flashback) Mom     Just imagining how Akira-kun will grow... [10:12] (Flashback) Mom     gives me strength. [10:33] (Flashback) Nurse     He's back. The boy from room 302. [10:37] (Flashback) Nurse     Oh, her son? [10:39] (Flashback) Nurse     But she's not here anymore. [10:46] Midousuji     I promised I'd show her     the fireflies next year. [10:52] Midousuji     She said she'd come watch me race. [10:55] Midousuji     Why isn't she at the window? [10:58] Midousuji     I'm here, so why isn't     she coming to greet me? [11:03] Midousuji     Is she not here today? [11:07] Midousuji     Whatever... [11:10] Midousuji     Why? Why don't I feel good, even though     I'm coming back from the hospital? [11:16] Midousuji     Why don't I feel warm and fuzzy inside? [11:20] Midousuji     I don't get it. [11:23] Midousuji     But... [11:25] (Flashback) Mom     No matter what happens, keep moving forward. [11:28] (Flashback) Mom     My little boy won. [11:33] Midousuji     I'll keep moving forward,     no matter what happens. [11:40] (Flashback) Mom     There's a proper way to catch fireflies. [11:43] (Flashback) Mom     It's like this. [11:45] (Flashback) Mom     You do it gently, so you don't crush them. [11:49] (Flashback) Mom     That's how everything works. [11:52] (Flashback) Mom     Anything important you've got to grab gently. [11:59] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi's catching up! [12:00] Fan     He's so determined! [12:01] Fan     What's with his form?! [12:04] Midousuji     Ball of victory... Rolling ball... [12:07] Midousuji     This time, I won't let you go. [12:10] Midousuji     I'd forgotten. [12:12] Midousuji     Grab it with both hands. [12:15] Midousuji     Grasp it tightly, but gently,     so it doesn't break. [12:19] Midousuji     After all, it's important. [12:23] Midousuji     I'm riding for victory! [12:28] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi caught up to Sohoku! [12:31] Yuto     They're neck and neck. [12:32] Yuto     There's less than 100 meters left. [12:35] Yuto     So what's going on? [12:38] Yuto     I'm in a dangerous situation. [12:40] Yuto     Ashikiba-san made me the ace. [12:42] Yuto     The finish line's right there. [12:45] Yuto     Even though I'm a climber, my body's     tingling and my heart's pounding. [12:51] Yuto     I'm so excited by this situation. [12:55] Yuto     This feeling... [12:59] Yuto     My brother was a great sprinter. [13:02] Yuto     My brother started riding early     and quickly distinguished himself. [13:07] Yuto     Before I knew it... [13:09] Announcer     Shinkai Hayato wins the     elementary school division again! [13:14] Yuto     He was always shining up     on the winner's podium. [13:18] Yuto     It wasn't long before I started riding, too. [13:24] (Flashback) Hayato     Faster! [13:25] (Flashback) Yuto     Wait, Hayato! [13:27] (Flashback) Hayato     Yuto, let's race to the top of Mount Azuma! [13:30] (Flashback) Yuto     Okay! [13:31] (Flashback) Yuto     Yeah! [13:32] Yuto     Everything was so much fun. [13:35] Yuto     I loved being praised by     my brother, so I rode every day. [13:41] (Flashback) Hayato     Want some? [13:42] (Flashback) Yuto     Yeah! [13:45] (Flashback) Yuto     The energy bars you give me     taste so good for some reason. [13:49] (Flashback) Hayato     They all taste the same. [13:52] (Flashback) Yuto     Hey, how can I ride like you? [13:56] (Flashback) Hayato     It comes down to how much     you practice, I guess. [13:59] (Flashback) Yuto     Got it! [14:01] (Flashback) Hayato     Since you're three years younger, [14:03] (Flashback) Hayato          we won't be on the same team      in middle or high school. [14:07] (Flashback) Yuto     What? By the time I enter school,     you'll have graduated... [14:12] (Flashback) Yuto     Huh? [14:13] (Flashback) Yuto     No! [14:15] (Flashback) Hayato     "No" isn't going to change anything. [14:16] (Flashback) Yuto     I want to ride together! [14:20] Yuto     Since I was so persistent,     he talked to a teacher about it. [14:24] Yuto     I was allowed to practice with him     as long as it was only on Sundays. [14:28] Yuto     As a grade schooler, [14:30] Yuto     I was allowed to ride with my brother's     Hadano Daiichi Middle School team. [14:35] (Flashback) Hayato     This is Yuto. He's my younger brother. [14:38] (Flashback) Hayato     He started biking recently. [14:41] (Flashback) Hayato     He's got talent. [14:43] Yuto     Talent? What's talent? [14:47] Yuto     Well, whatever. [14:48] Yuto     Now I get to keep riding with Hayato. [14:53] Yuto     At the time, I was really excited. [14:58] Yuto     I wanted to see how incredible Hayato     had become as a middle schooler. [15:02] Yuto     As though anticipating the     performance of a star player on TV, [15:06] Yuto     some nights I couldn't sleep because     I was so excited to see him up close. [15:14] Yuto     Why am I recalling that now? [15:17] Yuto     I'm in the middle of a race! [15:19] Yuto     Yeah! [15:21] Yuto     But my brother left me behind far     more quickly than I imagined. [15:29] Yuto     What? We're riding in a huge group? [15:32] Yuto     The guys in front are in my way. [15:34] Yuto     I can't ride with Hayato like this. [15:36] (Flashback) Yuto     Excuse me! [15:39] (Flashback) Senpai     Since you're still small, you can     stay out of the wind behind us. [15:43] (Flashback) Senpai     There's no need to be shy. [15:44] (Flashback) Yuto     That's not it. [15:46] (Flashback) Yuto     There's no point if I'm back here. Hayato— [15:49] (Flashback) Senpai     Your brother's amazing. [15:50] (Flashback) Senpai     As a first-year, he took third     in his first tournament. [15:54] (Flashback) Yuto     Can I move up to the front? [15:56] (Flashback) Senpai     To the front? Don't waste your time. [15:58] (Flashback) Senpai     Shinkai's so incredible, he's on      a different training menu. [16:03] Yuto     What? No way! [16:04] Yuto     Wait! [16:05] (Flashback) Yuto     I'm going with him! [16:06] (Flashback) Senpai     You can't. The course is too hard. [16:09] (Flashback) Yuto     Then when can I ride with him? [16:12] (Flashback) Senpai     He's faster than bad high schoolers. [16:15] (Flashback) Senpai     You can't handle it. [16:20] Yuto     Everyone else always happily described     how much better my brother was than me. [16:26] Yuto     We're on different levels? [16:28] Yuto     Don't be absurd, damn it! [16:29] Yuto     I'll just raise my own level! [16:32] Yuto     I'll participate in a race and win! [16:37] Yuto     It comes down to how much you practice. [16:39] Yuto     Hayato said not to get the wrong idea. [16:42] Yuto     I started practicing alone     to catch up to Hayato. [16:46] (Flashback) Yuto     Yeah! [16:48] (Flashback) Adult     What a fast grade schooler! [16:50] Yuto     I practiced every day. [16:52] Yuto     And then... [16:54] Yuto     I won my eighth race. [16:56] Yuto     Yes! See that, everyone? [17:00] Yuto     You can't have any objections now. [17:03] Yuto     Anyway, winning a race feels good. [17:06] Yuto     Is this how Hayato felt? [17:09] Yuto     It's not bad. [17:11] Yuto     Now people will know the name "Yuto." [17:15] Yuto     But what I learned at that race... [17:18] Announce     The winner of the elementary school division     is Shinkai Hayato's younger brother! [17:24] Yuto     ...was how great my brother was. [17:26] (Flashback) Fan     Wow, he's Hayato's brother. [17:29] (Flashback) Fan     When his brother was in grade school... [17:31] (Flashback) Fan     I know the one. That race, right? [17:33] (Flashback) Fan     Yeah. [17:33] Yuto     Huh? Hey! [17:35] Yuto     Wait! I'm the one who won! [17:37] Yuto     I worked pretty hard for this! [17:40] Yuto     I'm Yuto! [17:43] (Flashback) Reporter     Congratulations. [17:44] (Flashback) Reporter     Can I get an interview? [17:45] (Flashback) Yuto     Sure. [17:46] (Flashback) Reporter     Your brother's riding in the     middle school race after this. [17:49] (Flashback) Reporter     Do you think he'll win? [17:50] (Flashback) Yuto     What? [17:52] (Flashback) Reporter     What's your brother normally like? [17:54] (Flashback) Yuto     What? My brother? [17:56] (Flashback) Yuto     He makes me get the remote control for him. [17:58] (Flashback) Reporter     I bet you hope you'll catch up      to your brother soon. [18:01] (Flashback) Yuto     Y-Yeah... [18:04] Yuto     Why am I smiling and talking about Hayato? [18:10] Yuto     After that day, things between my     brother and me became awkward. [18:14] Yuto     We stopped talking. [18:16] Yuto     Yeah! [18:18] Fan     Such acceleration! [18:19] Fan     #16's trying to catch up! [18:22] (Flashback) Hayato     What's wrong, Yuto? [18:24] (Flashback) Hayato     Were you not happy to win the other day? [18:28] (Flashback) Yuto     I was happy. [18:32] (Flashback) Hayato     I see. [18:34] (Flashback) Yuto     Listen, I'm going to stop riding     with the middle school team. [18:41] (Flashback) Hayato     I see. [18:43] (Flashback) Yuto     I've only ever been Hayato-kun's     younger brother. [18:47] (Flashback) Hayato     I see... [18:48] (Flashback) Yuto     Close the door. [18:51] (Flashback) Hayato     Sure. [18:55] Hayato     Hayato-kun, huh? [18:57] Hayato     Maybe always being seen as my     brother is stressing him out. [19:02] Yuto     Everyone says it. They all do. [19:05] Yuto     Hayato's amazing,     learn from Hayato, become Hayato. [19:09] Yuto     I can't do it! [19:11] Yuto     Don't be ridiculous! [19:12] Yuto     I'm Shinkai Yuto! [19:17] Yuto     If I keep riding like this, I'll always     be Hayato's little brother. [19:22] Yuto     If Hayato-kun's a sprinter... [19:25] Yuto     Then I'll become a climber! [19:28] Yuto     Say it! Say it! [19:31] Yuto     Call me Yuto! [19:33] (Flashback) Rider     He's so small, but fast! [19:35] (Flashback) Rider     I've seen that face before! [19:37] (Flashback) Rider     That's Shinkai Hayato's brother! [19:39] Yuto     I'll win the hill climb! [19:42] Yuto     I'll participate in the Inter-High, [19:44] Yuto     beat the strongest climber, and prove     to everyone that I'm Shinkai Yuto! [19:50] Yuto     I won't follow my brother's path! [19:55] Yuto     It's odd. [19:57] Yuto     I thought I made up my mind that day. [20:00] Yuto     But since the moment Ashikiba-san made me     the ace, my cells haven't stopped buzzing. [20:06] Yuto     What's this tightness in my chest? [20:09] Yuto     This nostalgic feeling. [20:12] Yuto     This speed, this excitement, this tension... [20:16] Yuto     I'm just before the finish line on     the second day of the Inter-High. [20:18] Yuto     It doesn't make sense for me     to be recalling this now. [20:24] (Flashback) Hayato     Let's race to the top of Mount Azuma! [20:25] (Flashback) Yuto     Okay! [20:27] Yuto     I used to race against Hayato     all the time for fun. [20:30] Yuto     That was a sprint. [20:33] (Flashback) Hayato     That's it, Yuto! Faster! [20:38] Yuto     With tears in my eyes, a smile on my face... [20:41] (Flashback) Hayato     You're strong. [20:44] Yuto     With joy in my heart... [20:47] Yuto     He taught me how to sprint! [20:52] Yuto     There used to be a demon that     appeared on Hakone's straight roads. [20:56] Yuto     Have you heard that demon     has a younger brother? [21:05] Imaizumi     The brother! His eyes have changed. [21:08] Midousuji     A demon! Does he become one, too? [21:11] Midousuji     A sprinting demon? [21:13] Yuto     Yeah! [21:19] Fan     He caught up! [21:20] Fan     He forced his way in at the last second! [21:23] Fan     He passed them! [21:25] Hakogaku     Go, Yuto! [21:26] Hakogaku     There's fifty meters left! [21:30] Yuto     A sprint! [21:31] Yuto     It's hard! [21:33] Yuto     But it feels so good! [23:14] Hayato     Yuto, let's have a staring contest for it. [23:17] Yuto     Okay. [23:18] Both     Ready, set, go! [23:27] Yuto     Your face is funny! [23:29] Hayato     You lose.

[12:20] Midousuji     I was able to keep racing until     the end because of the fans, [12:24] Midousuji     my teammates, the support staff, and...

[12:38] Fan     Did he say lizards? [12:39] Midousuji     Like lizards that crawl around and     are quick to hide under rocks.

[16:09] Aoyagi     I'm okay. It's nothing. [16:13] Aoyagi     I just tripped. [16:17] Aoyagi     I'm tired from today's race. [16:19] Aoyagi     I'll be fine after some rest.

[16:33] Teshima     I never thought I was doing     it alone, but I was arrogant. [16:39] Teshima     I thought I just had to do my best. [16:42] Teshima     That he would help me. [16:46] Teshima     Somewhere in my mind, I thought that. [16:49] Teshima     I hid behind my weakness. [16:53] Teshima     Like he has until now. [16:56] Teshima     Like he did today. [16:59] Teshima     I thought he'd do something. [17:03] Teshima     I'm an idiot. I relied on him too much. [17:06] Teshima     I assumed he was tough. [17:08] Teshima     I assumed he'd always be by my side. [17:10] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I'm okay. It's nothing. [17:14] Teshima     Of course it's not "nothing"! [17:16] Teshima     But I told him my dream. [17:22] Teshima     Aoyagi, are you hurting? [17:25] Teshima     What about tomorrow's race? [17:36] Aoyagi     Junta... [17:38] Aoyagi     Thanks for telling me your dream. [17:41] Aoyagi     I always worry about the     things I couldn't do. [17:45] Aoyagi     That's why your cheerfulness saves me. [17:49] Aoyagi     You always tell me about     miracles, hopes, and dreams. [17:53] Aoyagi     Because of the visions you show me, [17:56] Aoyagi     I'm able to move forward, Junta. [18:01] Aoyagi     I pushed myself too hard. [18:03] Aoyagi     The pain's getting worse. [18:06] Aoyagi     I don't have a choice. [18:07] Aoyagi     I'll have to rely on someone. [18:09] Aoyagi     An experienced first-year... [18:12] Aoyagi     Kaburagi? No... [18:15] Aoyagi     What? You're injured? [18:17] Aoyagi     Danchiku, I'm going to ride tomorrow. [18:20] Aoyagi     So I need you to get some things for me. [18:23] Danchiku     Yes, sir. [18:24] Aoyagi     All the tape, supports, ice,     and painkillers we have. [18:30] Aoyagi     I need you to tape me up     and massage me in my room. [18:33] Aoyagi     And don't tell anyone about this. [18:37] Aoyagi     Not even Kaburagi. [18:38] Aoyagi     We don't need to make them worry. [18:41] Danchiku     Yes, sir. [18:44] Naruko     What are you up to, Onoda-kun? [18:46] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun. [18:47] Naruko     You're riding after your bath? [18:50] Sakamichi     Yeah. [18:52] Sakamichi     Toji-san swapped my gears out for some     lighter climbing ones for tomorrow's race. [18:56] Sakamichi     I thought I'd test them out. [18:59] Naruko     Really? [19:00] Sakamichi     But that's not the only reason. [19:03] Sakamichi     Tomorrow's the last day     of this year's Inter-High. [19:06] Sakamichi     When I think about it, I can't relax. [19:09] Sakamichi     I feel excited and restless. [19:12] Sakamichi     I feel like I still have things left undone. [19:15] Sakamichi     I thought riding my bike would help me relax. [19:20] Naruko     Sounds like you. [19:22] Naruko     But what sounds even more like you is     listening to a Whatever Hime CD on repeat. SIGN    Love Hime [19:30] Sakamichi     That would work, too! [19:32] Sakamichi     Which should I do? [19:33] Naruko     You've already got your bike out. [19:35] Naruko     Go for a ride. [19:36] Sakamichi     Okay. I'll be back soon. [19:42] Sakamichi     I'm nervous. [19:45] Sakamichi     Tomorrow's the last race. [19:48] Sakamichi     Everyone's done their best this past year. [19:51] Sakamichi     They've worked really hard. [19:53] Sakamichi     But as of right now, [19:55] Sakamichi     Sohoku hasn't won a single     number tag at this Inter-High. [20:00] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun did his best at the     finish line today, but he didn't win. [20:06] Sakamichi     Tomorrow's the last day. [20:08] Sakamichi     I have to work hard on the third day. [20:11] Sakamichi     Since I won last year, they probably     expect me to win this year. [20:16] Sakamichi     I wonder if I can. [20:18] Sakamichi     No, I shouldn't think that! [20:21] Sakamichi     I won't be able to relax! [20:24] Sakamichi     But last year, I had Makishima-san. [20:28] (Flashback) Makishima     Enjoy the tension for now. [20:31] (Flashback) Makishima     They're motivating us     more than you might expect. [20:35] (Flashback) Makishima     You have to think of ways [20:37] (Flashback) Makishima     to turn the situation around. [20:39] Sakamichi     No, what am I thinking? [20:42] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san said it's different this year. [20:44] Sakamichi     I'm stronger now. [20:46] Sakamichi     I'll sing the Love Hime song. [20:49] Sakamichi     I've always felt these hidden feelings— [20:55] Sakamichi     Huh? A bike? [20:57] Sakamichi     Who's riding this late at     night on this narrow pass? [21:02] Sakamichi     I've seen that form before. [21:05] Sakamichi     He's fast. [21:06] Sakamichi     And silent. [21:10] Sakamichi     He's climbing silently, like he's on rails. [21:14] Sakamichi     So quietly that it puts     even the forest to sleep. [21:17] Sakamichi     The Sleeping Climb! [21:19] Sakamichi     It must be him. [21:21] Sakamichi     The man who brought excitement to the     mountains at last year's Inter-High... [21:25] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy's Mountain God, Toudou-san! [21:27] Toudou     Well, if isn't four-eyes. [23:02] Sakamichi     Princess, Princess! [23:04] Sakamichi     I love, love, love you! [23:06] Sakamichi     Princess! Princess! [23:07] Naruko     Hearing this song gives me strength. [23:08] Sakamichi     Twinkle, twinkle! [23:09] Kaburagi     Jeez! Please don't sing that song! [23:12] Aoyagi     You're not going to sing? [23:13] Kaburagi     No way! [23:15] Kaburagi     I had no choice before, when it      was a command from God... [23:18] Kaburagi     Teshima-san, please put a stop to this! [23:20] Both     Princess, Princess! [23:21] Kaburagi     Hey! [23:22] Danchiku     Princess, Princess... [23:24] Kaburagi     Danchiku... [23:25] Sakamichi     Today, we'll sing the medley! [23:27] Sakamichi     I've always felt these hidden feelings! [23:32] Sakamichi     You'll always be my princess! [23:33] All     Huh? [23:34] Imaizumi     Ta-ta-ta-tan! [23:35] All     What?!

[01:44] Toudou     Well, if isn't four-eyes. [01:47] Sakamichi     G-Good evening! [01:49] Sakamichi     It's been a while! [01:51] Sakamichi     He's exuding so much pressure. [01:54] Sakamichi     But he's so composed. [01:55] Sakamichi     He's so cool! [01:57] Sakamichi     Are you here to inspire Hakone Academy? [02:03] Toudou     I was going to, but I got a call. [02:07] Toudou     Now I have to ride with this     borrowed jersey and bike. [02:11] Toudou     I'm chasing after a man riding up ahead. [02:17] Sakamichi     I see. [02:18] Sakamichi     Toudou-san, you haven't changed. [02:21] Sakamichi     No, actually.... [02:22] Sakamichi     You've gotten faster at climbing. [02:24] Sakamichi     Your aura's grown even more impressive. [02:27] Toudou     That's an honest impression, four-eyes. [02:31] Toudou     That's exactly right! [02:32] Toudou     I, the thrice-blessed Toudou Jinpachi,     have honed my speed and coolness even further! [02:40] Sakamichi     H-He really hasn't changed. [02:42] Toudou     I'm in college now. [02:45] Toudou     Fuku, Shinkai, and Arakita     are my opponents now. [02:49] Sakamichi     Opponents... [02:51] Toudou     But don't take me lightly, four-eyes. [02:55] Toudou     They are my opponents only when we race. [02:58] Toudou     In the mountains, they are no match for me. [03:00] Sakamichi     H-He's so cool! [03:04] Toudou     It's too bad you didn't get to race     against Manami in today's race. [03:11] Sakamichi     Oh, well... yes. [03:14] Toudou     I was disappointed I didn't     get to see you fight, too. [03:19] Toudou     I was looking forward to it at the peak. [03:21] Sakamichi     You were watching the race? [03:25] Toudou     I wanted to see Manami get his revenge. [03:29] Sakamichi     He believes in Manami-kun. [03:32] Sakamichi     That must be nice. [03:34] Toudou     Oh, right. I don't have time to chat. [03:38] Sakamichi     You're in a hurry. Sorry for bothering you. [03:42] Toudou     See you later, four-eyes! [03:43] Sakamichi     Sorry for taking up your time. [03:45] Sakamichi     Thank you... for... [03:49] Sakamichi     Huh? [03:50] (Flashback) Toudou     I'm chasing after a man riding up ahead. [03:55] Sakamichi     Toudou-san's chasing someone? [03:59] Sakamichi     That's odd. [04:01] Sakamichi     He said no one stands a chance     against him in the mountains. [04:04] Sakamichi     But he's riding with that serious expression. [04:09] Sakamichi     He's climbing in the middle of the night. [04:11] Sakamichi     Chasing someone. [04:14] Sakamichi     Chasing who? [04:16] Sakamichi     What is this? [04:17] Sakamichi     My heart rate suddenly increased. [04:20] Sakamichi     It's pounding so loudly. [04:24] Sakamichi     Wait for me, Toudou-san! [04:33] Toudou     Four-eyes! [04:34] Toudou     He's fast! [04:36] Toudou     He kept up with my acceleration on a climb! [04:39] Toudou     Are you sure, four-eyes?     You've got a race tomorrow. [04:42] Toudou     Should you be using up your energy here? [04:44] Sakamichi     Tell me! [04:45] Sakamichi     Who are you chasing right now, Toudou-san? [04:53] Toudou     A willful man. [04:56] Toudou     He went to England alone     without consulting anyone. [04:58] Toudou     I hadn't heard from him, [05:00] Toudou     but then he suddenly called to say he'd     be waiting for me on Mount Haruna. [05:05] Toudou     Funny, right? [05:07] Toudou     After hearing that, I hastily jumped on     a bike, and now I'm chasing after him. [05:12] Toudou     I wanted to push myself to the limit again. [05:17] Toudou     Who am I chasing? [05:19] Toudou     You should see for yourself. [05:21] Toudou     After the turn up ahead,     it's a long straightaway. [05:25] Toudou     You'll see him illuminated     by the streetlights then. [05:29] Toudou     His long limbs and hair     waving back and forth... [05:33] Toudou     Climbing with that unique form... [05:35] Toudou     That spider-like man! [05:41] Makishima     The glow of the streetlights     and the sound of wheels... [05:45] Makishima     How long are you going     to make me wait, Toudou? [05:50] Makishima     What's Sakamichi doing with you? [05:52] Sakamichi     My heart is pounding. [05:56] Sakamichi     Makishima-san! [06:00] (Flashback) Makishima     We're counting on you to     carry our Sohoku, Sakamichi. [06:04] Sakamichi     My heart's going to burst. [06:07] Sakamichi     Is what I'm seeing now an illusion? [06:12] Sakamichi     Is it real? [06:15] Sakamichi     You're right. [06:16] Sakamichi     I could search the whole world over, [06:19] Sakamichi     but you're the only one I'd     find who rides with that form. [06:22] Sakamichi     Makishima-san! [06:31] Sakamichi     Toudou-san's Sleeping Climb! [06:33] Toudou     Sorry, four-eyes! [06:35] Toudou     From here on out, it's a     race between me and him! [06:38] Toudou     I'm going on ahead! [06:39] Sakamichi     O-Okay... [06:42] Sakamichi     He's right. [06:43] Sakamichi     They're here because Makishima-san     called Toudou-san. [06:48] Sakamichi     I can't interfere. [06:53] Sakamichi     Toudou-san! [06:54] Sakamichi     I-I hate to bother you but, um... [06:59] Sakamichi     Could I keep riding with you? [07:04] Toudou     This is our race. [07:07] Toudou     However... [07:09] Toudou     Very well. History needs witnesses. [07:14] Toudou     You won't have time to blink, four-eyes! [07:17] Sakamichi     Got it! [07:20] Sakamichi     Toudou-san and Makishima-san     are neck and neck! [07:22] Sakamichi     They're fast! [07:24] Toudou     Maki-chan... [07:26] Toudou     Maki-chan! [07:29] Sakamichi     That's right. Toudou-san hasn't seen     Makishima-san in a while, either. [07:37] Toudou     It's good to see you again, Maki-chan! [07:39] Makishima     Yeah, Toudou! [07:44] Toudou     Why don't you answer any calls or texts? [07:47] Makishima     I'm too lazy. [07:49] Makishima     Besides, what am I supposed to write back? [07:51] Makishima     I can't think of anything to say. [07:52] Makishima     "I'm doing well"? [07:54] Makishima     "I miss you"? [07:56] Makishima     Wouldn't that be creepy? [07:59] Toudou     Your argument astonishes me. [08:01] Toudou     But what about the     sender's feelings, Maki-chan? [08:04] Toudou     We're talking about four-eyes. [08:06] Toudou     I'm sure he's sent you countless letters. [08:10] Toudou     Mountains of letters! [08:14] Makishima     That's why I'm here! [08:21] Makishima     Are you disappointed, Toudou? [08:22] Toudou     No! I'm totally satisfied, Maki-chan! [08:30] Toudou     Maki-chan! [08:37] Toudou     Maki-chan! [08:39] Makishima     Toudou! [08:40] Makishima     This feeling, Jinpachi! [08:42] Toudou     My heart is telling me to reach the peak! [08:46] Toudou     Let's go, Maki-chan! [08:47] Makishima     Jinpachi! [08:52] Toudou     That skill! That technique! [08:54] Toudou     You haven't changed at all     since a year ago, Maki-chan! [08:57] Makishima     Not that I care, but what's     up with that jersey? [09:00] Makishima     Talk about lame! [09:02] Toudou     It's your fault for suddenly calling! [09:04] Toudou     I had to borrow this bike and jersey! [09:08] Toudou     However... [09:09] Toudou     I don't care if it's lame! [09:11] Toudou     I get to battle you, Maki-chan! [09:14] Makishima     How can you shout such     embarrassing things, Jinpachi? [09:31] Makishima     What's wrong, Jinpachi? Is that all? [09:33] Makishima     Have your skills dulled in the past year? [09:35] Toudou     No! [09:36] Toudou     They've gotten sharper! [09:40] Toudou     The turn's ending! [09:41] Toudou     I won't let you take the peak, Maki-chan! [09:44] Makishima     I'll stop you, Jinpachi! [09:47] Sakamichi     Amazing... [09:48] Sakamichi     I could only describe this as amazing. [09:51] Sakamichi     My hands are shaking. My heart is on fire. [09:54] Sakamichi     Neither one's giving any ground. [09:58] Sakamichi     It's not even a race, but they're fighting     all out on this small, nameless pass. [10:04] Sakamichi     Last year's Inter-High must     have been this amazing. [10:09] Sakamichi     I'm on fire. [10:11] Sakamichi     What is this urge in my heart? [10:13] Sakamichi     This situation should be tough for them. [10:18] Sakamichi     But they're enjoying themselves! [10:21] Sakamichi     You can fight like this?     You can ride like this? SIGN    100 Meters to Lookout Point [10:25] Sakamichi     I want to see more! [10:27] Sakamichi     I want to see more, but... [10:30] Sakamichi     We're already at the peak. SIGN    Downhill Ahead [10:36] Sakamichi     We're entering the downhill. [10:42] Sakamichi     It's over. I wanted to see more. [10:48] Sakamichi     U-Um, I don't know what to say. [10:53] Sakamichi     That race was amazing. [10:55] Sakamichi     It really seemed like you finished     at the same time, though. [10:59] Sakamichi     Uh... [11:02] Sakamichi     They're right. It was too short. [11:07] Sakamichi     I'm glad I got to see their amazing race,     but I'm sure their feelings run deeper. [11:15] Sakamichi     They called it a race. [11:29] Sakamichi     But are they going to keep riding down? [11:33] Toudou     Did you hear what four-eyes said, Maki-chan? [11:37] Makishima     Yeah. He said we tied. [11:39] Toudou     He witnessed this race. [11:42] Toudou     He said we tied. [11:45] Toudou     That's not good. [11:46] Makishima     No, it's not. [11:48] Sakamichi     Huh? [11:49] Toudou     It can't be helped. [11:51] Makishima     Yeah, can't be helped. [11:53] Makishima     But it looked to me like you     slowed your pedaling at the peak. [11:59] Toudou     What are you talking about? [12:01] Toudou     You're the one who slowed down, Maki-chan! [12:03] Sakamichi     What? [12:03] Makishima     No other choice, then! [12:04] Toudou     In that case... [12:08] Both     Time for round two! [12:12] Sakamichi     They turned around! [12:15] Sakamichi     That's right. A downhill... [12:22] Sakamichi     Becomes an uphill if you make a U-turn! [12:26] Toudou     Let's go, Maki-chan! [12:27] Makishima     Yeah, Jinpachi! [12:29] Sakamichi     Round two! [12:31] Toudou     This time let's go all out to the peak! [12:34] Makishima     I've finished warming up! [12:36] Makishima     Now I'm going all out! [12:38] Makishima     Try not to fall behind, Jinpachi! [12:40] Toudou     Who do you think you're     talking to, Maki-chan? [12:42] Sakamichi     I-I'm not good at U-turns. [12:45] Sakamichi     Hurry. [12:48] Sakamichi     I need to catch up! [12:51] Sakamichi     They really are amazing. [12:54] Sakamichi     I'm so happy. [12:55] Sakamichi     I get to see them again. [12:57] Sakamichi     I get to watch them race! [13:01] Makishima     Round three! [13:04] Toudou     Round four! [13:07] Makishima     Round five! [13:19] Makishima     One more! [13:21] Toudou     Last one! [13:24] Sakamichi     That day on that small pass,     they climbed six times. [13:28] Sakamichi     The first time they tied. [13:30] Sakamichi     On the second through     fifth races, they won two each. [13:33] Sakamichi     And the one who ultimately     conquered the pass was... SIGN    100 Meters to Lookout Point [13:41] Sakamichi     Makishima-san. [13:44] Sakamichi     Their race on that small     pass won't be recorded. [13:54] Sakamichi     But it left a huge mark on my heart. [14:03] Manami     See? There they are again. [14:05] Hakogaku     What? Where? [14:07] Manami     One, two... [14:09] Manami     There's a third one, too. [14:11] Manami     Two of them are moving really fast. [14:13] Manami     It's like the third one is chasing them. [14:17] Hakogaku     You think they're UFOs? [14:19] Hakogaku     They are on top of the mountain. [14:20] Hakogaku     Well... [14:21] Hakogaku     This upperclassman of ours     can be kind of strange. [14:24] Manami     No. [14:26] Manami     Those are bicycle headlights. [14:28] Both     Huh? [14:29] Manami     You can see them through the trees. [14:33] Manami     They're pretty fast. [14:35] Manami     Someone's racing. [14:40] Manami     It's probably a serious race. [14:42] Hakogaku     Can you see them, Ishida? [14:43] Hakogaku     I see one that might be it. [14:46] Hakogaku     Is that a bike, though? [14:48] Hakogaku     He said he saw three. [14:50] Hakogaku     Just how good are Manami-san's eyes? [14:51] Manami     Oh... [14:53] Manami     It's over. [14:57] Hakogaku     By the way, Manami-san,     about tomorrow's schedule... [15:00] Manami     That's too bad. [15:03] Manami     I was going to go check     it out if they kept going. [15:06] Manami     Right? [15:07] Hakogaku     Check it out? Now? [15:09] Hakogaku     On a bike? [15:10] Hakogaku     "Right?" [15:11] Hakogaku     He wanted us to go with him? [15:12] Both     Manami-san's ideas are crazy! [15:14] Manami     Come to think of it, Toudou-san     was at the meeting earlier. [15:19] Manami     But he left in a hurry when it ended. [15:22] Hakogaku     He asked to borrow a bike. [15:25] Hakogaku     The guy who lent him his bike is lucky. [15:29] Hakogaku     Think something came up? [15:30] Hakogaku     Like a friend was in the area? [15:34] Manami     In that case, I hope     Toudou-san got to see him. [15:40] Sakamichi     U-Um, excuse me. [15:42] Sakamichi     I just got these at the     bottom of the mountain. [15:45] Sakamichi     You must be tired. [15:46] Sakamichi     These are for you. [15:53] Toudou     Why are you standing so far away, four-eyes? [15:56] Makishima     How are we supposed to get them? [15:57] Sakamichi     Right! [15:59] Sakamichi     Um, you're just so awe-inspiring! [16:01] Sakamichi     It's difficult to approach you. [16:03] Sakamichi     After a battle like that,     I thought I'd be bothering you. [16:07] Sakamichi     Um... [16:09] Sakamichi     It's been so long since I've seen     or talked to you, Makishima-san. [16:15] Sakamichi     I'm nervous. [16:19] Makishima     I'm not that big a deal. [16:22] Makishima     I'm just your senior who came     to Japan to watch the Inter-High [16:25] Makishima     and happened to be wandering     around a nameless pass. [16:30] Sakamichi     You're Makishima-san. [16:33] Sakamichi     You're kind, reliable, and strong. [16:37] Sakamichi     That's the Makishima-san I know. [16:40] Sakamichi     I'm glad you haven't changed. [16:44] Makishima     You're idealizing me too much. [16:47] Makishima     You can call me scary. [16:49] Sakamichi     While chasing behind you earlier, I kept     wishing to never wake up, if this were a dream. [16:57] Sakamichi     The situation was so incredible,     I thought I must be dreaming. [17:02] Makishima     Is it a dream or not? [17:05] Sakamichi     Thank you for letting me ride with you! [17:17] Toudou     Thanks, four-eyes. [17:24] Makishima     They're cold. [17:27] Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [17:28] Makishima     Stop shouting. [17:39] Makishima     Well, I'm heading back. [17:42] Makishima     Kinjou and Tadokoro are waiting. [17:46] Makishima     I forced Kinjou to lend me this. [17:52] Makishima     See you later, Toudou. [17:55] Toudou     Yeah. [17:57] Sakamichi     Um, I... [18:00] Makishima     Thanks for the letters, Sakamichi. [18:06] Makishima     Thanks for telling me about the club,     the new members, and your practices. [18:13] Makishima     I'm relieved to hear about them. [18:16] Makishima     But... [18:18] Makishima     You don't need to tell me about that     anime character named Kumotaro. [18:22] Sakamichi     Oh, really? [18:23] Sakamichi     You seemed very interested in him     when I gave you that present. [18:27] Makishima     No, I wasn't. [18:31] Makishima     It's very like you to include that, though. [18:34] Makishima     Are you uncertain, Sakamichi? [18:36] Sakamichi     Huh? SIGN    We keep telling each other we'll do our best. My second Inter-High is coming up. I'm not sure I'll be able to ride well, but I'll do my best. [18:37] Makishima     Your letter made it sound like you were     anxious about this year's Inter-High. [18:43] Makishima     Being a second-year is hard. [18:45] Makishima     Your seniors are giving you orders. [18:47] Makishima     Your juniors are relying on you. [18:49] Makishima     You have to try harder     than the previous year. [18:51] Makishima     Everyone expects it. [18:54] Makishima     It's not like being a first-year,     who just has to listen to orders. [18:58] Makishima     You start to see your surroundings. [18:59] Makishima     You restrict yourself by thinking     you have to do things or be a certain way. [19:04] Makishima     I know you. [19:06] Makishima     Compared to last year, you must be more     worried about how it's supposed to be. [19:12] Makishima     But don't worry about that stuff. [19:16] Makishima     The fundamentals will always be the same. [19:19] Makishima     Your style is like your letters. [19:22] Makishima     If you want to write     about anime, write all about it. [19:25] Makishima     Stick with it. [19:27] Makishima     Anything goes with bicycles. [19:29] Makishima     Nothing is cooler than seeing     your style through to the end! [19:37] Makishima     See you later, Sakamichi, Toudou. [19:40] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [19:41] Toudou     Yeah, Maki-chan. [19:45] Makishima     Come to think of it, [19:47] Makishima     I should've told him I was watching     this afternoon in the mountains. [19:52] Makishima     Whatever. [19:57] Sakamichi     Thank you, Makishima-san. [20:01] Sakamichi     Tomorrow, on the last day, I'll ride all out! [20:10] Toudou     I lit a fire inside four-eyes. [20:12] Toudou     Maybe I shouldn't have let him ride with us. [20:17] Toudou     No, that's not right. [20:19] Toudou     You always want to fight your      rival when he's in top condition. [20:23] Toudou     No one wants an opponent     who's uncertain or depressed. [20:27] Toudou     The stronger, the better. [20:29] Toudou     Isn't that right, Manami? [20:32] Hakogaku     Manami-san, where are you going? [20:35] Manami     To brush my teeth, I guess. [20:38] Hakogaku     Can we join you? [20:40] Manami     What? I can do it myself. [20:43] Hakogaku     Kuroda-san told us to keep an eye on him. [20:45] Hakogaku     He told us to send him to bed     early because he's always late. [20:49] Manami     Toudou-san... [20:52] (Flashback) Toudou     I'm a former member now. [20:54] (Flashback) Toudou     I don't intend to give you any advice. [20:56] (Flashback) Manami     What? Then why did you ask     to see me before the meeting? [21:01] (Flashback) Toudou     I came to see if your eyes had     grown dim, since you didn't get [21:06] (Flashback) Toudou     to race against four-eyes today. [21:08] (Flashback) Manami     Oh, please. They're totally fine. [21:12] (Flashback) Manami     If anything, I'm excited, now that     it'll be happening on the last day. [21:18] Toudou     That's a good look. [21:20] Toudou     I doubt he'll have any problems. [21:26] Hakogaku     Oh, no! The window... [21:28] Hakogaku     Manami-san escaped! [21:32] Manami     There's an even steeper     mountain on the third day. [21:35] Manami     It's also the last day of the Inter-High. [21:38] Manami     In this situation... [21:39] Manami     How could I not be excited? [23:15] Sakamichi     M-Makishima-san, you haven't changed! [23:18] Sakamichi     You're still cool! [23:20] Makishima     And you're... [23:21] Makishima     ...starting to look like a second-year. [23:24] Toudou     Maki-chan, I'm a college student now! [23:30] Makishima     You've gotten kind of gaudier.

[15:35] Aoyagi     Don't go. [15:36] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [15:38] Kaburagi     Huh? What? [15:40] Kaburagi     You just told me to go. [15:42] Aoyagi     I said don't go. [15:43] Aoyagi     As in "do not." [15:45] Kaburagi     Oh, don't go. [15:47] Both     He's an idiot. [15:50] Midousuji     Morph, morph, morph! [15:53] Fan     The lead pack's here! He's saying "morph!" [15:55] Fan     Morph! [15:56] Fan     It's yesterday's winners, Kyoto Fushimi! [15:58] Fan     Kyoto Fushimi's Midousuji is wearing the     previous day's winner's yellow number tag! [16:04] Fan     That unconventional award     ceremony was the best! [16:07] Fan     You can do it, Kyoto Fushimi! [16:09] Fan     Kyoto! [16:12] Imaizumi     Midousuji... [16:13] Imaizumi     He won over the fans with the second day's     victory and his performance. [16:18] Imaizumi     The atmosphere has changed     completely since yesterday. [16:21] Fan     We hope you win again today! [16:22] Fan     You've got this, Kyoto Fushimi! [16:24] Imaizumi     It's harder for us now. [16:29] Sakamichi     You just wait, Imaizumi-kun. [16:31] Sakamichi     Today's course starts by     taking us around the lake. [16:35] Sakamichi     It's not too long, but it's     a fairly long, flat road. [16:39] Sakamichi     I need to catch up here. [16:42] Sakamichi     Around now, at the front... [16:57] Ashikiba     I caught up, Yuto. [16:59] Yuto     That was quick, Ashikiba-san. [17:01] Sakamichi     Third-year and ace Ashikiba-san     and first-year Shinkai Yuto-kun. [17:06] Sakamichi     Against to Hakone Academy's two,     Sohoku has only Imaizumi-kun. [17:13] Ashikiba     How do you feel? [17:17] Yuto     Not bad. [17:19] Imaizumi     Damn. [17:21] Imaizumi     I can't believe yesterday's     results created this situation. [17:25] Imaizumi     Is he here yet? [17:26] Imaizumi     Come quickly, Onoda! [17:30] Sakamichi     I see him. It's Imaizumi-kun! [17:33] Sakamichi     He's still pretty far ahead. [17:36] Sakamichi     But I'll get there! [17:40] Mizuta     What?! [17:45] Sakamichi     I'll definitely catch up. [17:48] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [17:55] Sakamichi     Since meeting you and learning about the     world of bicycle racing, I've changed. [18:04] Sakamichi     I'd never played a sport before. [18:08] Sakamichi     I met so many people after     joining the bicycle racing club. [18:14] Sakamichi     Kinjou-san taught me how Team Sohoku never     gives up and always supports each other. [18:23] (Flashback) Kinjou     You don't need to try so hard by yourself. [18:25] (Flashback) Kinjou     If you fall, I will support you. [18:30] (Flashback) Kinjou     But if someone else should fall,      you must support them. [18:34] (Flashback) Kinjou     That is Team Sohoku. [18:36] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's how we ride. [18:40] Sakamichi     The strong-willed and determined     Tadokoro-san taught me to ride single-mindedly. [18:48] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I am eternally grateful enough to you. [18:53] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Onoda... [18:56] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Thank you. [18:58] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I didn't think I'd get to see those jerseys      with my own eyes again... [19:08] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I'm back! [19:10] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Team Sohoku! [19:13] Sakamichi     Makishima-san taught me the difficulty,     fun, and coolness of climbing. [19:21] (Flashback) Makishima     I understand... [19:23] (Flashback) Makishima     I'm a climber, too. [19:25] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [19:27] (Flashback) Makishima     You just have to ride. [19:30] (Flashback) Makishima     On a bicycle, the more you pedal,      the stronger you'll become. [19:35] Sakamichi     Sugimoto-kun, Koga-san,     Kanzaki-san, and Tachibana-san... [19:41] Sakamichi     They're all important members of Team Sohoku. [19:44] Sakamichi     No, that's not all. [19:50] Sakamichi     Manami-kun and the other     members of Hakone Academy... [19:55] Sakamichi     Midousuji-kun and the rest of Kyoto Fushimi... [20:00] Sakamichi     Everyone riding on this course     right now is so fast and strong, [20:07] Sakamichi     but they're all friends I've met     because I starting cycling. [20:22] Sakamichi     So I'll ride as hard as I can! [20:27] Sakamichi     Teshima-san wore himself     down fighting against [20:30] Sakamichi     Manami-kun and sent us his     passionate vibrations. [20:37] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun pursued Hakone     Academy and Kyoto Fushimi, [20:41] Sakamichi     and he clung to the lead pack alone     until we could rejoin him. [20:48] Sakamichi     Kaburagi-kun pushed himself so hard in a     sprint for the first day's first result [20:54] Sakamichi     that he collapsed after he finished. [21:00] Sakamichi     And when Kaburagi-kun stopped     pedaling on the second day, [21:05] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san went to get him and     brought him back to the team. [21:16] Sakamichi     For all those people! [21:18] Sakamichi     For Team Sohoku, I ride! [21:31] Sakamichi     Just you wait, Imaizumi-kun! [21:39] Imaizumi     Onoda! [21:41] Sakamichi     Let's go to the finish line, Imaizumi-kun! SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [21:50] Sakamichi     I'll pedal as hard as I can! SIGN    This is a work of fiction.

[00:51] Miki     On the first day, shortly after     Hakone Academy passed the sprint line, [00:56] Miki     Onoda-kun got separated from the     team and swallowed up by the pack. [01:00] Miki     Teshima-san had to fight     for the team on the climb. [01:05] Miki     He lost that battle, but it     raised the team's morale. [01:10] Miki     Naruko-kun participated in the     sprint for the finish line. [01:13] Miki     But Hakone Academy won again. [01:17] Miki     In the end, Hakone Academy     took the first result, [01:21] Miki     the mountain result, and won the first day, [01:25] Miki     earning them all three colored number tags. [01:29] Miki     On the second day, Kaburagi-kun fell     behind as soon as the race started, [01:33] Miki     and Aoyagi-san went to help him. [01:37] Miki     During that time, Hakone Academy      won the sprint again. [01:43] Miki     Kaburagi-kun and Aoyagi-san finally caught up [01:45] Miki     so they could participate     in the finish line sprint. [01:49] Miki     On the second day, it was     Midousuji-kun of Kyoto Fushimi [01:52] Miki     who crossed the finish line first. [01:56] Miki     After the second day,     Sohoku still hasn't won anything. [01:59] Miki     They haven't won a single      colored number tag. [02:02] Miki     But...

[02:21] Teshima     Even if we give everything we've got     and collapse at the finish line, [02:24] Teshima     our faith in miracles will take us there. [02:26] Teshima     We'll keep our faith alive. [02:28] Teshima     If one of us ends up in a race of     centimeters before the final finish line...

[12:18] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Honestly, I thought you'd quit the bicycle     racing club after last year's Inter-High. [12:26] (Flashback) Imaizumi     During our first practice     after the Inter-High ended, [12:30] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I asked if you wanted to go together.

[13:08] Sakamichi     Mizuta-san? [13:11] Mizuta     It seems your full attention is     on what's ahead of you, Onoda. [13:14] Mizuta     But I, Mizuta, as captain of the great     Kyoto Fushimi Bicycle Racing Club— [13:19] Sakamichi     Sorry, but I'm in a hurry. [13:22] Mizuta     What? He's gone. [13:24] Sakamichi     I've entered the climb. [13:26] Sakamichi     I can catch up to the lead     pack and Imaizumi-kun. [13:31] Mizuta     You must be joking. [13:32] Mizuta     He disappeared in an instant. [13:38] Toji     How do you think the start will go? [13:40] Koga     Well, it'll depend on whether     or not Onoda catches up. [13:45] Toji     If he can catch up to Imaizumi? [13:49] Koga     No, to the two Hakone Academy     riders ahead of him. [13:54] Koga     If they allow the two of them to get away, [13:57] Koga     today's race might be over for them. [14:06] Sakamichi     I see him. [14:07] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [14:09] Imaizumi     Onoda! [14:11] Midousuji     Oh? Sakamichi... [14:17] Sakamichi     I caught up, but Hakone Academy isn't here. [14:22] Imaizumi     I know. They're gone.

[14:29] (Flashback) Yuuto     Once this climb is over,     there's a long downhill up ahead. [14:33] (Flashback) Yuuto     We'll be racing down at 80 kmph. [14:35] Imaizumi     They knew I'd be waiting for you [14:38] Imaizumi     so I couldn't increase my pace     or cooperate with Midousuji. [14:43] Sakamichi     Sorry. It's because I didn't get here sooner. [14:47] Imaizumi     No, you just barely made it in time. [14:50] Imaizumi     Stick behind me. Don't look at the scenery. [14:53] Imaizumi     Copy my gear, cadence, and how     I shift my weight exactly. [14:57] Sakamichi     What? [14:59] Imaizumi     We can still catch up to them. [15:01] Imaizumi     You caught up at just the     right moment, Sakamichi. [15:07] Imaizumi     Let's hurry. You're about to ride down this     mountain faster than you've ever ridden. [15:12] Imaizumi     One mistake and you'll crash into the     shoulder on this deadly high-speed downhill. [15:18] Sakamichi     Downhill... [15:21] Imaizumi     Prepare yourself. [15:23] Imaizumi     We're about to accelerate to 90 kmph. [15:25] Sakamichi     Ninety...? [15:28] Sakamichi     That's as fast as a car. [15:31] Sakamichi     But we have to catch up to the     Hakone Academy riders ahead of us. [15:37] Sakamichi     Yeah. Let's do it. [15:39] Imaizumi     All right. [15:40] Imaizumi     Let's go. [15:42] Midousuji     Oh? [15:45] Sakamichi     It's so fast. The scenery is flying past us. [15:49] Sakamichi     We're already at the turn. [15:52] Sakamichi     We're leaning so far over. [15:54] Sakamichi     I can feel the centrifugal force. [15:55] Sakamichi     We're turning so quickly,     I feel like I'm going to fall. [15:58] Sakamichi     I've never taken a turn this quickly before. [16:00] Sakamichi     But I'll match Imaizumi-kun's     movements and go! [16:08] Sakamichi     Hard brake! [16:11] Sakamichi     We're nearly into the next corner again. [16:12] Sakamichi     We're cutting it so close. Incredible. [16:14] Sakamichi     It's like we're racing on fast-forward. [16:16] Sakamichi     It's so fast. I'm scared. [16:19] Sakamichi     But I don't feel so scared [16:23] Sakamichi     when I'm looking at Imaizumi-kun's back. [16:26] Imaizumi     Can you go keep going, Sakamichi? [16:29] Sakamichi     Yeah. [16:30] Sakamichi     Your back always feels reassuring,      so I'll be fine. [16:35] Imaizumi     What? [16:37] Sakamichi     It's like it's always telling me, "Come on." [16:42] Sakamichi     It's like it's always... [16:46] Sakamichi     gently pulling me forward. [16:49] Imaizumi     That's not something you     should be saying right now. [16:52] Sakamichi     You're right. Sorry. [16:54] Imaizumi     No, that's not right. [16:56] Imaizumi     If you felt like saying it during a race,      then that's the time to say it. [17:00] Sakamichi     Huh? [17:01] Imaizumi     Road races are similar     to the passage of time. [17:04] Imaizumi     At times they change at dizzying speeds,      and there's no going back. [17:08] Imaizumi     Whatever you're thinking at that     time has to be said in that moment. [17:13] Imaizumi     Thanks for what you said earlier. [17:16] Imaizumi     It's encouraging. [17:18] Imaizumi     Not that I'm particularly gentle or kind. [17:22] Sakamichi     That's not true. [17:25] Imaizumi     Now, then, Hakone Academy are     finally coming into view. [17:36] Yuuto     Man, you gotta be kidding me. [17:38] Yuuto     They closed the gap on the downhill. [17:40] Ashikiba     Not only that, but there are two of them now. [17:44] Yuuto     I know I accelerated to 80 kmph. [17:46] Yuuto     Does that mean Sohoku raced downhill     faster than that? Seriously? [17:52] Yuuto     How many times does the Inter-High     have to tear down a man's pride? [17:56] Yuuto     Then let's accelerate again     and pull ahead of them. Yeah! [18:01] Ashikiba     Don't, Yuuto. [18:05] Ashikiba     It's two against two now. [18:07] Ashikiba     Continuing to race against     them would only exhaust us. [18:10] Ashikiba     We should cruise along for a while     and wait for the rest of the team. [18:14] Yuuto     Roger that. SIGN    Lead Pack SIGN    Lead Pack [18:22] Teshima     There are four riders in the lead pack. [18:24] Naruko     Onoda-kun really did it. [18:26] Kaburagi     Take that, Hakone Academy! Bladdy-blah-blah! [18:29] Kaburagi     See how powerful Sohoku is? [18:33] Teshima     I wouldn't do that if I were you, Kaburagi. [18:35] Kaburagi     What? Why not? [18:37] Kaburagi     Road racing is a team sport. [18:40] Kaburagi     It's better to make it clear     who your friends and foes are. [18:45] Kaburagi     How could you talk to the enemy captain when     I just finished saying that, Aoyagi-san? [18:51] Kaburagi     Hey, Aoyagi. Get away from him. [18:54] Aoyagi     We have a deal. [18:57] Kaburagi     What? A deal? [19:03] Kaburagi     Huh? [19:04] Kaburagi     Wait, Teshima-san, that Hakone Academy pig is— [19:08] Kuroda     Excuse us. [19:09] Kaburagi     What? [19:10] Izumida     Abs. [19:13] Kaburagi     What? Naruko-san, you, too? [19:15] Manami     Hey, you must be the energetic     first-year Sakamichi-kun mentioned. [19:20] Kaburagi     Even the late guy? [19:22] Kaburagi     What's going on here? [19:24] Teshima     We're cooperating. [19:27] Teshima     The more cyclists that     ride together, the faster you go. [19:32] Teshima     Four is faster than two,     and eight is faster than four. [19:35] Teshima     The more cyclists you have, the easier,     faster, and farther you can go. [19:40] Teshima     If your interests are aligned, [19:41] Teshima     then you'll even work with     your opponents for an advantage. [19:46] Teshima     That's cooperating. [19:48] Teshima     Onoda and Imaizumi have made     this an evenly-matched race. [19:51] Teshima     In this situation, [19:53] Teshima     both we and Hakone Academy [19:54] Teshima     want to reach the lead pack as quickly     as possible and get our teams together. [20:00] Teshima     You've never experienced this before? [20:02] Kaburagi     No. This is my first time. [20:05] Kaburagi     In other words, until we reach the lead pack,     Hakone Academy are our allies and teammates. [20:11] Teshima     That's right. [20:12] Kaburagi     This is kind of inspiring, isn't it? [20:15] Kaburagi     I'm so excited. [20:17] Kaburagi     I'm Sohoku first-year Kaburagi Issa. [20:20] Kaburagi     I have a pet rhinoceros beetle. [20:23] Doubashi     What are you getting so excited about? [20:25] Doubashi     Did you forget what you     just did to us earlier? [20:30] (Flashback) Kaburagi     Bladdy-blah-blah! [20:34] Doubashi     I'll knock you on your butt, orange! [20:37] Kaburagi     So this is what he meant. [20:39] Doubashi     Get to the front. [20:41] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [20:45] Kaburagi     I'm so excited. [20:47] Kaburagi     I feel like I'm dreaming. [20:50] Kaburagi     I'm racing as allies with people      who were my opponents. [20:53] Kaburagi     Doubashi-san and the captain,     the late guy, and Izumida-san. [20:57] Kaburagi     I'm so excited. [20:59] Kaburagi     So this is cooperating. Interesting. [21:02] Kaburagi     Bicycles are so interesting and fun. [21:05] Kaburagi     There really is a god after all. [21:12] Aoyagi     We should be good for a while. [21:17] Kuroda     Things are going well so far. [21:19] Kuroda     There aren't likely to     be any obstacles ahead. [21:27] Fan E     It's Kyoto! [21:28] Fan F     The rest of Kyoto Fushimi's here! [21:31] Fan G     Why aren't they working with     Hakone Academy and Sohoku? [21:34] Fan G     They're clearly going slower. [21:36] Fan E     And the two guys riding ahead haven't met up. [21:39] Fan F     Did they make a strategic error? [21:42] Funatsu     Yamaguchi-san, at this rate,     they'll get away from us. [21:46] Funatsu     You and I are sprinters,     but they've got numbers. [21:52] Funatsu     Komari fought during yesterday's sprint, [21:56] Funatsu     but I don't know if he's a sprinter or what, [21:59] Funatsu     and he won't answer my questions. [22:01] Komari     What? Did you say something, Funatsu-san? [22:05] Funatsu     I said I don't know if     you're a sprinter or what. [22:10] Komari     Oh. [22:12] Funatsu     He's still not going to tell me? [22:16] Funatsu     Yamaguchi-san, are things really     going according to plan? [22:20] Funatsu     We haven't been abandoned, have we? [22:23] Funatsu     By Midousuji-kun. [22:27] Funatsu     His reactions are always so muted. [22:30] Funatsu     He's as stoic as a soldier. [22:32] Funatsu     Girls definitely like me more than him. [22:34] Funatsu     He has, hasn't he? [22:35] Funatsu     He even made us shave our heads. [22:37] Funatsu     Nobody's told me anything. [22:39] Funatsu     He's always doing stuff I've never heard of. [22:41] Funatsu     I've never heard of a team shaving     their heads after winning. [22:44] Funatsu     Normally you'd celebrate together. [22:46] Funatsu     I can never tell what he's thinking. [22:51] Funatsu     I was really trying to grow my hair out. [22:55] Yamaguchi     Did you say everything you wanted to say? [23:00] Yamaguchi     If you have, then ride in silence. [23:03] Yamaguchi     Keep this pace. [23:04] Funatsu     Huh? [23:06] Yamaguchi     The next phase has already begun. [23:09] Funatsu     What? [23:10] Yamaguchi     I promise I'll complete this phase. [23:14] Yamaguchi     That's what you want, [23:16] Yamaguchi     right, Midousuji?

[00:15] Yamaguchi     His name is Ise. [00:16] Yamaguchi     He's a third-year at Kumamoto Daiichi. [00:18] Midousuji     Kumamoto? Ise-kun? [00:21] Midousuji     Oh, the guy we used yesterday. [00:28] (Flashback) Ise     We finally caught up to the front. [00:32] (Flashback) Midousuji     Now, Zakus! [00:41] Ise     That's right. Because of you,      our team was scattered. [00:46] Ise     Our only option was to get swallowed by      the pack and cross the finish line that way. [00:48] Midousuji     Don't tell me you came to complain. [00:51] Midousuji     That was a race. [00:53] Midousuji     If you're going to resent anyone, then resent      yourselves for not predicting [00:56] Midousuji     what would happen and being     too weak to keep up. [00:59] Yamaguchi     Midousuji, you shouldn't say that. [01:01] Ise     You're right. [01:02] Yamaguchi     What? [01:03] Ise     It was all our—no, my fault. [01:08] Ise     Despite being responsible for leading     Kyushu's great Kumamoto Daiichi team, [01:12] Ise     at this rate, I'm heading for a     disappointing finish two years in a row. [01:17] Ise     I can't allow that to happen, so... [01:22] Ise     Please. [01:24] Midousuji     Oh? [01:25] Ise     Midousuji, you're a strategist. [01:28] Ise     You took advantage of the confusion      to win the race yesterday. [01:34] Ise     You must have some method we can     use to turn our situation around. [01:37] Midousuji     A method? Method? [01:41] Midousuji     Method? [01:45] Midousuji     Come up with one yourself. [01:49] Midousuji     Didn't I tell you? [01:50] Midousuji     This is a race. I'm not obligated     to tell you anything. [01:56] Midousuji     That's what I'd like to say, but... [02:00] Midousuji     Fine, then. It seems like I apparently     owe you guys something, [02:06] Midousuji     so I don't mind showing you a method     that'll turn your situation around.

[06:31] Izumida     If they work together to chase after us... [06:37] Kuroda     You worry too much, Touichiro. [06:40] Izumida     It caused a lot of chaos last year. [06:49] Kawahara     Are you listening, Bunya and Ishimaru? [06:51] Both     Yes, sir. [06:52] Kawahara     Our team is currently in fourth place behind [06:55] Kawahara     Hakone Academy, Sohoku, and Kyoto Fushimi. [06:57] Ineshiro     Yes, sir. [06:58] Kawahara     We had to stop pedaling in the     mountains on the first day, [07:01] Kawahara     but yesterday, we put our legs     to good use on Mt. Haruna [07:04] Kawahara     and finished in a decent position. [07:06] Kawahara     The front is still within our grasp. [07:08] Both     Gunpei-san! [07:10] Kawahara     Let's go. It's the final day. [07:12] Kawahara     We'll show them how strong     Yamagata Mogami really is. [07:15] Both     Yes, sir! [07:20] Ineshiro     Huh? [07:21] Ishimaru     This sound... [07:22] Ishimaru     It's the pack. [07:23] Ineshiro     You're kidding.     How'd they get here so quickly? [07:29] (Flashback) Ise     A condition? [07:31] (Flashback) Midousuji     You'll be piranhas. [07:33] (Flashback) Ise     What? [07:35] (Flashback) Midousuji     They're fish that live in the Amazon     and have lots of sharp, little teeth. [07:40] (Flashback) Ise     Uh, okay... [07:42] (Flashback) Midousuji     But even piranhas are     puny little small fry. [07:46] (Flashback) Midousuji     No matter how sharp their teeth are,     a single one can easily be swatted away. [07:52] (Flashback) Midousuji     But what about two? Or three? Four? Five? [07:59] (Flashback) Midousuji     What about ten, twenty, fifty? [08:07] Kawahara     If we get swallowed up by this pack... [08:09] (Flashback) Midousuji     Each individual fish is no serious threat.

[08:39] Niwazuma     They're cooperating, huh? [08:41] Niwazuma     That's our strongest strategy. [08:47] Niwazuma     The more people there are in     a pack, the faster it goes. [08:50] Niwazuma     But on the other hand, it also     becomes more difficult to control. [08:55] Niwazuma     The leader of a pack needs charisma     to unite those around him. [09:00] Urakubo     That's right. [09:02] Niwazuma     But even if you know that, it's no easy task. [09:05] Niwazuma     Like with Machimiya-san last year, [09:07] Niwazuma     the pack needs strength     and hope to reach the front. [09:12] Urakubo     Sorry, Niwazuma. [09:14] Niwazuma     Enough already, Urakubo. [09:17] Urakubo     I brought you down with me      when I fell yesterday. [09:22] Urakubo     You should be out there     chasing down a big one, too.

[09:42] Niwazuma     And besides, as Kure's Landshark,     you must be more frustrated. [09:47] Urakubo     Nah, I just wanted you to     see me take down a big one. [09:54] Niwazuma     Urakubo... [10:00] Kaburagi     What's wrong, Aoyagi-san? [10:02] Kaburagi     Did you drop something? [10:05] Kaburagi     You gotta keep your supplements safe     and secure in your back pocket. [10:09] Kaburagi     Oh, are you worried about the pack? [10:13] Kaburagi     It's all right. We're more than     ten minutes ahead of them. [10:18] Kaburagi     Not even a pack can close that gap. [10:26] Manami     The wind has changed. [10:28] Kaburagi     Don't worry. [10:30] Kaburagi     Nothing's going to happen. [10:32] Kaburagi     After all, the Cooperative     Kaburagi Superexpress... [10:36] Kaburagi     is so fun and fast! [10:38] Kaburagi     What's better than that? [10:41] Kabruagi     We'll catch up to the lead pack in     no time and meet up with our teams. [10:45] Kaburagi     Look, I see two of them now. [10:52] Kaburagi     Two guys are no match for our Superexpress. [10:55] Kaburagi     Let's pass them right quick. [11:00] Kaburagi     And they worked so hard yesterday, too. [11:02] Kaburagi     They probably worked too hard.

[12:21] Naruko     Winnin' a race because your opponent was     sick or his legs were in poor shape is lame. [12:28] Naruko     On the first day, you and I tied for second. [12:31] Naruko     Yesterday, you pulled off a crazy     strategy and claimed first place. [12:36] Naruko     I was super pissed when I heard about that, [12:39] Naruko     but after that, I thought     you were amazing, honestly. [12:44] Kaburagi     Naruko-san, just leave him. Let's go. [12:48] Naruko     If this is a strategy of yours,      then bring it on. [12:51] Naruko     But if you've really fallen behind     because you don't have the strength, [12:54] Naruko     and your race ends here, then... [12:58] Midousuji     Then? [12:59] Naruko     Then I'll roll you up in a takoyaki      and swallow you whole. [13:03] Naruko     Last winter, I lost to you. [13:07] Naruko     I lost, I cried, and I quit being a sprinter. [13:11] Naruko     Until now, I've trained with the intention     of beating you and reclaiming that.

[14:54] (Flashback) Mizuta     Wait, wait, wait. But we won. [14:57] (Flashback) Mizuta     We won the second day. [14:58] (Flashback) Mizuta     Can't we at least celebrate today— [15:03] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Midousuji-kun... [15:06] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I-I'd like to ask you to reconsider, too. [15:09] Funatsu     Yamaguchi-san? [15:10] Mizuta     How unusual. [15:12] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I think shaving our heads is a step too far. [15:17] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     You've made your point. [15:19] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     The team is ready for tomorrow. [15:21] (Flashback) Midousuji     Oh, yeah? You're ready? [15:25] (Flashback) Midousuji     Then why don't we cut our hair right now? [15:27] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     What? [15:28] (Flashback) Midousuji     You can, can't you? [15:30] (Flashback) Midousuji     If you're really so mentally     prepared for tomorrow, [15:34] (Flashback) Midousuji     then cutting your hair should be no big deal! [15:38] (Flashback) Midousuji     You've gotta throw away all     meaningless vanity and adornments. [15:44] (Flashback) Funatsu     Damn it. Why do we have to     cut our hair after we won? [15:49] (Flashback) Mizuta     Wait. Take one last picture     before you cut it. [15:51] (Flashback) First Year A     Okay. [15:53] (Flashback) First Year B     Are you sure, Yamaguchi-san? [15:55] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Huh? Yeah. [16:00] Yamaguchi     Sorry, Ishigaki-san. [16:03] Yamaguchi     I failed to become Midousuji's conscience. [16:07] Yamaguchi     He's not someone I can handle. [16:11] Yamaguchi     I don't mind being in the     background after all. [16:13] Yamaguchi     I'm not meant to fight on the front lines. [16:20] Yamaguchi     Kishigami... [16:22] Yamaguchi     Is he really letting them cut his hair? [16:26] Yamaguchi     Guys like him who have something     exceptional aren't even shaken by it. [16:31] Yamaguchi     I certainly do feel like I've     got nothing left to throw away. [16:36] (Flashback) Midousuji     Yamaguchi-kun? [16:37] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Midousuji-kun. [16:40] (Flashback) Midousuji     Tomorrow is the last day. [16:42] (Flashback) Midousuji     We won today. [16:44] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Y-Yeah, thanks to your efforts. [16:48] (Flashback) Midousuji     Today was such a nice day, wasn't it? [16:52] Yamaguchi     Does he want me to compliment him? [16:55] (Flashback) Midousuji     But that's in the past now. [16:59] (Flashback) Midousuji     We'll advance. Forward, forward, forward. [17:05] (Flashback) Midousuji     I came to talk to you about tomorrow. [17:08] (Flashback) Midousuji     I thought I'd have you     perform an important job. [17:13] Yamaguchi     An important job? [17:16] (Flashback) Midousuji     I'm only going to tell you about this phase. [17:22] Funatsu     Yamaguchi-san, the pack's right behind us. [17:28] Yamaguchi     Funatsu Kazuho, Kishigami Komari. [17:32] Yamaguchi     It's time for phase number 99. [17:34] Yamaguchi     The rest of the Kyoto Fushimi team     is going to keep cruising along. [17:39] Funatsu     Cruise along? [17:41] Yamaguchi     Entrust your fates to me. [17:56] Funatsu     Phase, my ass. Fate, my ass. [17:59] Funatsu     We haven't accomplished anything! [18:02] Funatsu     We shaved our heads for nothing! [18:04] Urakubo     It takes a big one. [18:06] Niwazuma     What? [18:07] Urakubo     Chasing after the front requires a leader. [18:10] Urakubo     One who never breaks,     no matter the circumstances. [18:12] Urakubo     A big one with an unyielding will. [18:16] Niwazuma     What would happen if that     pack got a leader like that? [18:21] Urakubo     Then they just might     catch up to the lead pack. [18:26] Yamaguchi     Funatsu, raise your head. [18:27] Funatsu     Huh? [18:28] Yamaguchi     It's not over yet. [18:30] Yamaguchi     No, our phase begins now. [18:34] Yamaguchi     Ise. [18:35] Ise     You came, Yamaguchi. [18:37] Yamaguchi     Yeah. We're piranhas now, too. [18:41] Yamaguchi     Let's go after the front together. [18:42] Ise     Yeah. [18:43] Rider N     "You came?" What's that mean? [18:45] Rider O     Didn't we swallow them up? [18:48] Rider P     No, that's not how it felt. [18:50] Rider N     Were they waiting for us to catch up? [18:54] Yamaguchi     Listen up. Starting now,     I'm taking command of this pack. [18:58] Yamaguchi     Me, Yamaguchi Noriyuki of Kyoto Fushimi. [19:01] Rider K     Yamaguchi of Kyoto Fushimi? [19:03] Rider L     Was he the type of guy     to say stuff like that? [19:06] Rider M     I'm not so sure. [19:08] Rider M     Honestly, I have practically     no memory of what he's like. [19:11] Rider L     Me, neither. After all,     he doesn't stand out much. [19:14] Rider L     He's always hiding in Midousuji's shadow. [19:17] Both     Midousuji? [19:19] Yamaguchi     Ohori, Yaguramaru. [19:22] Yamaguchi     Two minutes. [19:24] Yamaguchi     I want the two of you to pull     from the front for two minutes. [19:26] Ohori     What? [19:27] Yaguramaru     You can't just suddenly issue us orders. [19:30] Yamaguchi     In two minutes, I'll pull. [19:32] Yamaguchi     Is that good enough for you? [19:35] Ohori     Uh... Fine. [19:39] Rider H     That must be it. [19:41] Rider I     This isn't Yamaguchi's decision. [19:44] Rider J     It's Midousuji's strategy. [19:51] Fujiwara     Ise-san, was what they just said true? [19:54] Ise     It is. [19:55] Ise     Today's starting order [19:57] Ise     means Midousuji will be riding alone with     his assist at the start of the race. [20:01] Ise     Once Hakone Academy and Sohoku     get their members together, [20:04] Ise     they'll be at a major disadvantage. [20:05] Ise     That said, if they slow down to     meet up with the rest of their team, [20:10] Ise     naturally, they'll get left behind. [20:12] Ise     In order to keep that gap     as small as possible, [20:15] Ise     we'll raise the pack's pace and     meet up with Yamaguchi's group. [20:18] Ise     Then we'll ride that momentum     all the way to Midousuji. [20:22] Fujiwara     What happens after     we meet up with Midousuji? [20:27] Ise     We'll probably go after the lead pack. [20:29] Fujiwara     The lead pack? [20:31] Rider H     We've got this! [20:32] Rider I     Yeah. As long as we keep     following Yamaguchi's orders... [20:36] Rider J     We'll reach Midousuji, and then... [20:39] Rider H     We could actually catch up to the lead pack. [20:42] Yamaguchi     Let's swap. [20:43] Ohori     Got it. [20:44] Yaguramaru     I'm gonna rest a bit. [20:47] Yamaguchi     Funatsu, don't fall behind. [20:48] Funatsu     What? [20:50] Yamaguchi     It'll be your turn after mine. [20:51] Yamaguchi     We'll be swapping right away. [20:56] Funatsu     He's like a different person, Komari. [21:02] Funatsu     It really is impossible to talk to this guy. [21:05] Yamaguchi     Funatsu, swap. [21:07] Funatsu     Fine, fine. [21:18] (Flashback) Midousuji     Because of Ise-kun, my strategy     required some fine tuning, [21:23] (Flashback) Midousuji     but that doesn't change what you need to do. [21:26] (Flashback) Midousuji     Do exactly as I told you     yesterday, Yamaguchi-kun. [21:31] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I know. [21:35] Yamaguchi     Is this what you wanted, Midousuji? [21:40] Yamaguchi     Swap leaders. I'll pull. [21:49] Niwazuma     A big one, huh? [21:51] Niwazuma     You think there's someone     like that inside that pack? [21:55] Urakubo     Not right now, but once he joins them, [22:01] Urakubo     the pack will become stronger     than you could ever imagine. [22:09] Midousuji     Splish, splash. Splish, splash. [22:12] Mizuta     Huh? Did you say something, Midousuji-kun? [22:16] Midousuji     I can hear the small fry coming. [22:20] Mizuta     What? [22:27] Midousuji     The pack. The pack of small fry. [22:31] Mizuta     What? Yama... [22:34] Mizuta     Why is he pulling the pack? [22:38] Midousuji     No, not small fry. [22:41] Midousuji     That's a school of piranhas. [22:44] Mizuta     P-Pira...? What are those? [22:47] Midousuji     You don't need to know. [22:50] Midousuji     Let's raise our pace. [22:52] Mizuta     Huh? Hey, wait! [23:06] Yamaguchi     I'm here, Midousuji. [23:13] Midousuji     I've been waiting for you, Yamaguchi-kun.

[05:43] Rider C     We're amazing. [05:46] Teshima     My team's leaving. You can't be serious. [05:49] Teshima     What am I doing? This is a critical moment. [05:53] Rider A     Huh? Where are Midousuji and Yamaguchi? [05:57] Rider D     What's going on? All the     Kyoto Fushimi guys are gone. [05:59] Rider C     Hey, look! [06:04] All     They're attacking? [06:06] Teshima     Midousuji! [06:07] Teshima     He waited for the moment the pack     became giddy to counterattack. [06:12] Rider A     What's going on here? [06:13] Rider D     I thought we were going after the     lead pack together, Kyoto Fushimi. [06:18] Midousuji     Thank you for your contribution, piranhas. [06:21] Midousuji     Your job ends here.

[11:24] Teshima     Once our opponents come     into view, go up to 100%. [11:26] Teshima     If it becomes a race, go to 120%. [11:29] Teshima     We'll slip past our opponents     and meet up with our team. [11:33] Teshima     It's all right. [11:35] Teshima     We've got this. [11:36] Teshima     The two of us can do this.

[11:52] Teshima     But strangely, talking to someone while     you walk makes the journey feel shorter. [11:58] Teshima     One day, I had a thought... [12:02] Teshima     Maybe that's strength. [12:05] Teshima     Everyone walks with their own strength. [12:08] Teshima     But though it's invisible, there's definitely      some kind of force at work. [12:14] Teshima     Even if you're not touching,     being with another person [12:20] Teshima     walking together in the same direction      gives you both strength. [12:26] Teshima     Let's swap. Rest behind me for two minutes. [12:30] Teshima     It's true. Moving forward     together is strength. [12:33] Teshima     Even though we're in a crisis,      I feel so powerful.

[13:55] Imaizumi     Took you long enough, Naruko. [13:58] Ashikiba     You came. [13:59] Yuuto     You kept us waiting a long time, Izumida-san. [14:02] Yuuto     Now all six of us are here. [14:04] Yuuto     Let's accelerate at full speed. [14:06] Izumida     No. [14:07] Izumida     Wait, Yuuto. [14:10] Sakamichi     What? Teshima-san was... [14:12] Kaburagi     Yes. [14:13] Imaizumi     Is that true, Naruko? [14:15] Naruko     Yeah, it's for real. [14:20] Izumida     Wait until they're settled. [14:22] Izumida     Teshima-kun's sacrifice is     the reason the pack stopped. [14:27] Sakamichi     A-And Aoyagi-san, too? [14:30] Kaburagi     That's right. I tried to stop him, but... [14:34] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san and... [14:36] Imaizumi     ...Teshima-san. [14:39] Kaburagi     We finally met up with the lead pack, [14:42] Kaburagi     and Hakone Academy has all six     members while we only have four. [14:46] Kaburagi     We're at a terrible disadvantage. [14:48] Kaburagi     If Aoyagi-san had stayed,     then at least we'd have five. [14:51] Sakamichi     Aoyagi-san and... [14:53] Imaizumi     ...Teshima-san! [14:54] Kaburagi     Huh? What? Why are you smiling? [14:57] Kaburagi     We're screwed. [14:58] Kaburagi     This is hopeless. [15:00] Kaburagi     They're not coming back. [15:02] Naruko     You think they won't come back, hotshot? [15:05] Imaizumi     Normally, it'd be impossible. [15:07] Kaburagi     Right? [15:09] Imaizumi     But it's the two of them together. [15:11] Kaburagi     Huh? [15:11] Naruko     Kabu doesn't know about it. [15:13] Imaizumi     Those two used to race     together as a two-man team. [15:20] Imaizumi     We know better than anyone     how strong they are. [15:23] Sakamichi     Yeah. [15:25] Imaizumi     Don't abandon hope yet. [15:27] Imaizumi     Those two will come back. [15:29] Imaizumi     Sohoku will wait as long as it can for them. [15:35] Teshima     Let's catch up to the team, Aoyagi. [15:37] Aoyagi     Yeah, Junta. [15:39] Teshima     You just wait, Imaizumi,     Naruko, Kaburagi, Onoda... [15:44] Aoyagi     Junta, I see riders ahead. [15:47] Aoyagi     Those jerseys... [15:49] Teshima     It's Kyoto Fushimi. [15:51] Midousuji     Oh? [15:55] Teshima     Midousuji... [15:57] Teshima     Let's swap, Aoyagi. [15:59] Teshima     Midousuji, I know you. [16:01] Teshima     You predicted we'd catch up, didn't you? [16:05] Teshima     Will you cooperate with us? No, impossible. [16:08] Teshima     Will you block our path? [16:09] Teshima     Or will stick behind us and use us? [16:12] Teshima     Show me. What will you do? [16:19] Midousuji     What's the matter? [16:20] Midousuji     You look absolutely dumbfounded. [16:25] Teshima     I didn't think you'd let us come up      beside you without a fight. [16:30] Midousuji     How could you? [16:31] Midousuji     I'm not that mean. [16:36] Teshima     Yeah, right. Aoyagi! [16:47] Midousuji     If you want to go after the lead pack, [16:49] Midousuji     you'll have to do something     about that wall first. [16:54] Teshima     So these two are going to block our path. [16:57] Teshima     Are you planning to wall us off? [16:59] Yamaguchi     No. [17:01] Yamaguchi     We'd like to challenge you     to a race, two-against-two. [17:05] Teshima     A two-against-two race? [17:09] Yamaguchi     A team battle. [17:10] Yamaguchi     You remember the course map, don't you? [17:13] Yamaguchi     Beyond these flats is a large bridge. [17:17] Yamaguchi     The finish line will be     the end of that bridge. [17:23] Yamaguchi     However... [17:24] Yamaguchi     In a team battle, there's no     point unless both riders finish. [17:29] Yamaguchi     We won't be competing to see who     crosses the finish line first, [17:33] Yamaguchi     but whose second rider     crosses the bridge first. [17:40] Teshima     Why does he seem so intense? [17:44] Yamaguchi     This is insane. [17:47] (Flashback) Midousuji     Yamaguchi-kun... [17:49] (Flashback) Midousuji     In the end, you'll crush     one of Sohoku's riders. [17:52] (Flashback) Midousuji     Two, if things go well. [17:57] (Flashback) Midousuji     In order to ensure the third day     goes advantageously for us, [18:00] (Flashback) Midousuji     I need you to complete this phase. [18:04] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's all riding on your shoulders,     Yamaguchi-kun. [18:12] Yamaguchi     This is ridiculous. It's unreasonable. [18:15] Yamaguchi     Just getting into Kyoto Fushimi and     becoming a regular was a miracle for me. [18:22] Yamaguchi     I get weirdly nervous and     can't speak properly. [18:25] Yamaguchi     I've told the others countless times [18:27] Yamaguchi     that I can't be trusted with important tasks. [18:29] Yamaguchi     So why? Why does he keep     making unreasonable requests? [18:33] Yamaguchi     It's unreasonable!     Unreasonable! Unreasonable! [18:38] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Yama, you have to be     Midousuji's conscience. [18:49] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     This is the first time I've ever     grabbed someone by the collar. [18:53] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Forgive me, Midousuji. [18:57] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     At least year's Inter-High, I was abandoned     in the mountains and left behind. [19:03] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     You always do this. [19:04] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Your practice schedules and     orders are always unreasonable. [19:08] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     But I don't like conflict. [19:11] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Even if I had something to say,     I've kept quiet until now. [19:15] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     But after being forced to comply     with all your unreasonable requests, [19:18] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I finally figured it out. [19:21] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     That must be my fate. Fine, then. [19:24] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     I accept it. [19:26] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     Tomorrow, on the third day,     I'll complete your phase [19:32] (Flashback) Yamaguchi     like my life depends on it. [19:36] Midousuji     If it means you'll do it, letting you     grab my collar is a small price to pay, [19:44] Midousuji     Yamaguchi-kun. [19:47] Yamaguchi     I am a third-year sprinter for Kyoto Fushimi,     Yamaguchi Noriyuki. [19:52] Funatsu     And I'm a workhorse on the flats,     second-year Funatsu Kazuho. [19:55] Teshima     Both of them are sprinters. [19:58] Teshima     As a climber, I'd be outclassed     in a race on the flats. [20:02] Aoyagi     Junta! [20:03] Aoyagi     We don't need to accept their challenge. [20:07] Teshima     No, this is a wall we have to overcome [20:11] Teshima     if we want to meet up with our team. [20:13] Teshima     Isn't that right, Yamaguchi? [20:16] Aoyagi     What do you mean? [20:17] Teshima     I'm sure Midousuji told you     that even if we win this race [20:21] Teshima     and meet up with the lead pack... [20:25] Midousuji     We won't hinder you or chase after you. [20:29] Midousuji     You'll be free to go after your team. [20:34] Yamaguchi     That's right. [20:35] Yamaguchi     And if we win, then you'll give     up on going after the front. [20:40] Yamaguchi     That's our condition. [20:43] Aoyagi     Junta... [20:44] Teshima     I know. It's just their word. [20:47] Teshima     There's no guarantee Midousuji will keep his. [20:50] Teshima     But the fact is, we can't meet up with     our team unless we get past these guys. [20:57] Teshima     I'm sorry. [20:58] Teshima     I know it'll take a toll on you, but... [21:04] Teshima     I have to get back to the team     so I can do what I need to do. [21:09] Aoyagi     Junta... [21:11] Teshima     Fine. We accept your challenge, Yamaguchi. [21:14] Yamaguchi     I see. [21:15] Teshima     The two-against-two sprint race... [21:18] Teshima & Yamaguchi     ...is on! [21:24] Teshima     Crap! Yamaguchi Noriyuki's damn fast. [21:29] Teshima     It's no wonder he's a regular     on the Kyoto Fushimi team. [21:33] Funatsu     We've got this. It's just over four kilometers     to the finish line across the bridge. [21:36] Funatsu     If we can claim a decisive lead over them     while Teshima the climber is pulling, [21:40] Funatsu     we'll win. [21:44] Funatsu     So why isn't Aoyagi pulling? [21:47] Funatsu     This is the wrong time to be stingy. [21:50] Aoyagi     How long are you going     to keep pulling, Junta? [21:53] Teshima     Well, you know... the weather's nice. [21:57] Teshima     And you're wearing leg covers     in this scorching heat. [22:03] Teshima     I thought you might be feeling     a little under the weather. [22:06] Aoyagi     Don't worry about me, Junta. [22:09] Aoyagi     I've gotten plenty of rest riding behind you. [22:20] Aoyagi     Supersonic Oxygen Human Bullet, Third Style. [22:25] Funatsu     What? He inflated?! [22:27] Aoyagi     Muscles expand when you use them. [22:30] Aoyagi     And mine are just a little bit special. [22:32] Funatsu     A little bit?! [22:33] Aoyagi     My core and leg muscles     expand to an abnormal size! [22:36] Funatsu     That's absurd! [22:40] Aoyagi     Junta, I'm going to accelerate now. [22:43] Aoyagi     Stick right behind me. [22:44] Teshima     You're already accelerating. [22:46] Aoyagi     Here we go. [22:47] Teshima     Got it. [22:51] Funatsu     What? [22:51] Teshima     We caught up, Yamaguchi. [22:55] Mizuta     They've probably caught up to     Yamaguchi and Funatsu by now. [22:59] Mizuta     Are you sure it wouldn't have been better     for the five of us to crush them? [23:04] Midousuji     They're prepared to work really hard for it. [23:09] Midousuji     And besides, [23:11] Midousuji     it's not so difficult to     capture an injured birdie.

[02:44] Funatsu     Teshima may not be a threat,     but Aoyagi is a first-class sprinter. [02:48] Funatsu     We were pulling the pack until     a few moments ago. We can't— [02:50] Yamaguchi     Get in front, Funatsu. [02:52] Funatsu     What? [02:53] Yamaguchi     Don't think. Just keep pulling     until you drop out of the race. [02:57] Funatsu     Drop out? [02:59] Yamaguchi     We've got four kilometers to go. [03:00] Yamaguchi     The other side of the     bridge is our finish line. [03:05] Funatsu     I thought I didn't have anything left     to lose after I shaved my head, but... [03:11] Funatsu     You're demanding this of     us, too, Midousuji? Damn it. [03:17] Yamaguchi     Don't worry. I'll pull     until I can't anymore, too. [03:21] Funatsu     Yamaguchi-san, you're also planning     on ending your race here? [03:25] Yamaguchi     That's the phase we've been tasked with. [03:30] Funatsu     Yes, sir! [03:35] Yamaguchi     That's it, Funatsu. [03:37] Yamaguchi     We're gonna see our final phase through. [03:41] Aoyagi     We're going after them, Junta. [03:43] Teshima     Yeah. [03:52] Teshima     2.5 kilometers to go. [03:54] Teshima     The finish line is approaching, but... [03:57] Teshima     We're slowing down. [04:00] Teshima     Are his knees finally getting to him? [04:04] Aoyagi     Don't worry about me, Junta. [04:08] Aoyagi     It feels like we're going slower [04:10] Aoyagi     because I'm riding at 40% strength     so I don't exhaust my legs. [04:16] Aoyagi     Sprinting isn't just about going fast. [04:20] Aoyagi     That's what Tadokoro-san taught me last year. SIGN    Sohoku     High     School     Bicycle     Club [04:23] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Listen up, Aoyagi. [04:25] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Sprinting is about strategy. [04:28] (Flashback) Tadokoro     In certain situations, it's important     to allow your opponent to run. [04:33] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Allow them to run? [04:34] (Flashback) Tadokoro     That's right. The longer you make     them run, the more power they use. [04:41] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Conserving your energy [04:43] (Flashback) Tadokoro     and catching up slowly rather than      immediately gives you an advantage. [04:49] (Flashback) Tadokoro     You get it, don't you? [04:51] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Sprinting is surprisingly intellectual. [04:56] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Huh? Uh... Yeah, okay. [05:01] (Flashback) Tadokoro     I'll show you how it's done. [05:05] (Flashback) Tadokoro     You need strong legs to catch your opponents. [05:08] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Yes, sir. [05:09] (Flashback) Tadokoro     You gotta practice like crazy, [05:11] (Flashback) Tadokoro     and finally, it takes experience and guts. [05:13] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Yes, sir! [05:15] Tadokoro     I'm the man I am today because of him. [05:19] Teshima     I received a lot of help     from Tadokoro-san, too. [05:22] Teshima     He taught me a lot of things. [05:26] Teshima     But maybe you learned     more from him than I did. [05:29] Teshima     Honestly, I'm jealous. [05:30] Aoyagi     What? [05:32] Teshima     It probably made Tadokoro-san happy [05:35] Teshima     that of the two racers he     looked after and trained, [05:40] Teshima     one of us followed the same      sprinter path that he did. [05:45] Aoyagi     You think so? [05:47] Teshima     I do. You're special. [05:59] Aoyagi     Now that I think about it,     he did pat my head a lot. [06:04] Teshima     Look. While we were reminiscing, [06:07] Teshima     we caught up to them. [06:11] Funatsu     It's not possible for us to shake off Aoyagi. [06:14] Yamaguchi     You did well, Funatsu. [06:16] Yamaguchi     I'll pull now. Try to keep up. [06:22] Aoyagi     Stick to me, Junta. [06:23] Teshima     Yeah. SIGN    Bridge 1km Ahead SIGN    Bridge 1km Ahead [06:30] Teshima     One kilometer to the bridge. [06:32] Teshima     1.5 kilometers to the other side. [06:34] Teshima     I feel like I'm losing     years off my life, but... [06:39] Teshima     Right now, I'm racing along at speeds right     in the middle of a sprinter's range. [06:43] Teshima     Don't fall behind. [06:44] Teshima     If you fall behind now,     you'll never catch back up. [06:48] Teshima     Aoyagi, catch up to Yamaguchi and Funatsu. [06:51] Teshima     From there, we'll go all out. [06:52] Teshima     Pull ahead of them and race     through to the finish line. [06:55] Teshima     I'll be fine. [06:57] Teshima     I'll keep up, even if it kills me. [07:03] Aoyagi     Got it. You can count on me, Junta. [07:08] Aoyagi     Supersonic Oxygen Human Bullet! [07:16] Aoyagi     The pain's getting worse. [07:24] Imaizumi     Do you feel the tension in the air, Naruko? [07:28] Naruko     Unfortunately, I totally do. [07:32] Imaizumi     They're raring to go. [07:37] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy is showing us kindness,     but it won't last that long. [07:45] Imaizumi     Prepare yourselves. [07:46] Imaizumi     We'll accelerate when they make their move. [07:51] Kaburagi     Damn it! [07:53] Kaburagi     That really was the last time, wasn't it? [07:56] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun... [07:57] Kaburagi     I mean, right? [07:59] Kaburagi     If we're accelerating and they still     haven't caught up yet, then... [08:04] Kaburagi     I should've tried harder to stop him. [08:07] Kaburagi     I can't believe that was the last     time I'll race with Aoyagi-san. [08:11] Kaburagi     I'm an idiot after all. [08:13] Kaburagi     Yesterday, when Aoyagi-san came to help me,      I thought he'd fallen behind. [08:20] Kaburagi     He's always giving me nonsensical     orders and making me sing weird songs. [08:26] Kaburagi     I thought he was a nutty guy     who never did anything, but... [08:32] Kaburagi     Yesterday, I figured it out. [08:35] Kaburagi     When I thought about what I'd     have done in his position... [08:40] Kaburagi     I wouldn't have gone to help him! [08:42] Naruko     He came right out and said it. [08:44] Kaburagi     But without a word... [08:47] Kaburagi     Without bragging about it,     without speaking, he gets it done. [08:52] Kaburagi     He does things even when     no one thanks him for it. [08:56] (Flashback) Kaburagi     He's crazy. [08:59] Kaburagi     He doesn't walk the talk, he just walks. [09:04] Kaburagi     So in the end, I wanted to race my heart     out and tell him how much I respect him. [09:14] Kaburagi     I get it, though. This race will be difficult. [09:19] Imaizumi     That's right. [09:20] Kaburagi     Then let's go and not look back. [09:26] Kaburagi     Onoda-san? [09:27] Onoda     U-Um, I think you should tell him that. [09:31] Kaburagi     Huh? [09:33] Kaburagi     But I can't possibly given the circumstances. [09:37] Onoda     Tell him, Kaburagi-kun. [09:39] Onoda     Maybe it won't happen,     and maybe it's unlikely, [09:44] Onoda     but keep thinking you want to     tell him that until the end. [09:47] Kaburagi     Keep thinking? [09:48] Onoda     Isn't that what it means     to believe in someone? [09:55] Naruko     Sounds like somethin' you'd say, Onoda-kun. [09:57] Imaizumi     Keep thinking, huh? [10:00] Imaizumi     That reminds me. [10:01] Imaizumi     Last year, I became certain of something     after seeing what you achieved. [10:06] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Our thoughts will reach them. [10:10] Imaizumi     Showoff, think. [10:12] Imaizumi     Appreciate the words of wisdom     Onoda-senpai has given you. [10:15] Naruko     That's it. Think as hard as you can. [10:17] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [10:18] Onoda     Uh, I didn't think it was that big a deal. [10:23] Yuuto     I'm not sure what happened, but the pressure     Sohoku's exuding suddenly increased. [10:28] Izumida     Yeah, you're right. [10:31] Onoda     Let's believe in them.     I'm sure they'll catch up. [10:35] Kaburagi     Got it. I'll do it. [10:39] Kaburagi     I'll keep thinking about what I want to     tell Aoyagi-san even if things get dicey. [10:47] Teshima     There's the bridge! [10:49] Yamaguchi     To the other side of the bridge... [10:51] Aoyagi & Teshima     ...there's one more kilometer. [10:53] Aoyagi     We caught up! [10:54] Teshima     Go, Aoyagi! All-out! [10:55] Teshima     Pedal at 120%. [10:59] Aoyagi     Got it, Junta. [11:07] Aoyagi     Funatsu doesn't have the     strength left to pull. [11:10] Aoyagi     Yamaguchi's exhausted, too.     They're at their limit. [11:13] Aoyagi     There are 800 meters to go. [11:15] Aoyagi     If we can pass them, then we'll win! [11:23] Aoyagi     You're kidding, right? [11:24] Aoyagi     How does he have the strength to do that? [11:26] Yamaguchi     I gotta do this. It's my final job. [11:30] Yamaguchi     I'll do it, no matter what! [11:34] Teshima     No. If they pull ahead here,      we'll be screwed. [11:37] Aoyagi     Junta, we're going faster. [11:40] Yamaguchi     Don't fall behind, Funatsu. [11:42] Funatsu     Yes, sir. [11:48] Teshima     We're on the bridge. [11:49] Yamaguchi     Five hundred meters to the finish line. [11:52] Funatsu     Only the sprint to the finish remains. [11:55] Funatsu     What will you do? What's your play, Sohoku? [12:00] Funatsu     Aoyagi is a first-class sprinter. [12:02] Funatsu     It should be possible for him to accelerate     before the finish line and pass us, [12:06] Funatsu     but as a climber,     Teshima won't be able to keep up. [12:11] Funatsu     It's possible Aoyagi will     continue supporting him [12:14] Funatsu     and launch Teshima at the last second, [12:18] Funatsu     but as the weaker sprinter,     Teshima won't be able to pass us. [12:22] Funatsu     Either way, we'll finish     crossing the bridge first. [12:26] Yamaguchi     It's really a shame. [12:28] Yamaguchi     Your defeat was certain the moment     you accepted this challenge. [12:34] Teshima     Go. You're great at sprints, Aoyagi. [12:40] Teshima     What? [12:41] Teshima     Aoyagi, you... [12:44] Teshima     You made it this far despite your knee? [12:47] Teshima     No, it's because of that. [12:50] Teshima     You were prepared for this to     be your last sprint, so you... [12:56] Teshima     I'm sorry for pushing you so hard, Aoyagi. [13:01] Teshima     I'll handle the rest of the sprint. [13:03] Teshima     Stick behind me. [13:07] Aoyagi     Junta... [13:09] Aoyagi     He's smiling? [13:11] Aoyagi     How can he smile under these circumstances? [13:14] Teshima     Thanks for pulling me this far. [13:19] Aoyagi     It's that cheerfulness of yours     that's saved me over and over. [13:32] Aoyagi     I'm a gloomy person. [13:34] Aoyagi     It's what I've always been told,      and I believed it myself. [13:42] Aoyagi     I even started bicycle racing     because I could practice alone. [13:47] Aoyagi     I entered races alone and raced alone. [13:52] Aoyagi     Because I had no one to correct me, [13:54] Aoyagi     I always raced too quickly     through the first half [13:57] Aoyagi     and got left behind during the second. [14:09] Aoyagi     I met Junta at the high school I chose     just because it had a bicycle racing club. [14:17] (Flashback) Teshima     You're a pretty decent climber. [14:22] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm Teshima Junta from Minami      Middle School. What's your name? [14:27] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Aoyagi Hajime. [14:34] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Hajime is written with the     character "one" for number one. [14:40] (Flashback) Teshima     You were in that race? [14:44] (Flashback) Teshima     Higashido from class four used to race, too. [14:49] (Flashback) Teshima     Today's practice was really tough. [14:53] Aoyagi     I don't know what he liked about me,     but Junta often started conversations with me. [14:58] Aoyagi     Not that I was any good at responding to him. [15:03] (Flashback) Teshima     Hey, Aoyagi... [15:05] Aoyagi     He was always smiling. [15:08] (Flashback) Aoyagi     I-Isn't it boring always talking to me? [15:13] (Flashback) Teshima     No, it's fun. [15:16] (Flashback) Teshima     You actually listen to what I'm saying. [15:20] Aoyagi     Junta always granted me strength. [15:24] Aoyagi     After our first-year Inter-High,     we formed our two-man team. [15:30] Aoyagi     And Junta put me up on the     winner's podium five times. SIGN    Chiba Prefecture Newbie Road Race [15:36] Aoyagi     I apologized to him numerous     times because I felt bad [15:39] Aoyagi     about being the only one up there. [15:42] Aoyagi     But every time, Junta smiled. [15:46] (Flashback) Teshima     We've proven we're strong enough to do it. [15:51] (Flashback) Teshima     That satisfies me. [15:53] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm happy. [15:55] Aoyagi     And every time, that ignited my passion, [15:59] Aoyagi     and I felt like I became     stronger and stronger. [16:05] Aoyagi     Whenever I was lost, troubled, or suffering, [16:09] Aoyagi     Junta, you always stood by my side. [16:12] Aoyagi     You've always sacrificed     yourself so I could win. [16:17] (Flashback) Teshima     Thanks for pulling me this far. [16:21] Aoyagi     I should be thanking you. [16:27] Funatsu     He moved up. [16:28] Funatsu     So Teshima's going for the final sprint. [16:31] Funatsu     But what can a climber do? [16:34] Funatsu     We've won. We've won this race. [16:40] Yamaguchi     I'll do it. I'll do whatever it     takes to complete my final phase! [16:46] Funatsu     Anyway, how is Yamaguchi-san     racing like this? [16:50] Funatsu     I've always looked down on him,      but this is incredible. [16:53] Funatsu     I've never seen him like this before. [16:55] Funatsu     His roots are planted deep,     and he's blooming in all his glory. [17:01] Funatsu     He's like a wild cherry tree     secretly blooming in spring [17:04] Funatsu     up in the mountains, hidden behind the trees. [17:10] Aoyagi     Is this the end? [17:12] Aoyagi     Is it impossible for us to     win despite Junta's efforts? [17:22] Aoyagi     Not yet! [17:24] Aoyagi     Road races end when you give up! [17:28] Aoyagi     Junta! [17:30] Aoyagi     Junta, I've got an idea! [17:33] Teshima     What? [17:34] Aoyagi     There's no time to explain! [17:36] Aoyagi     Let's do it! [17:38] Yamaguchi     Two hundred meters left! [17:40] Funatsu     The finish line is right there. [17:45] Funatsu     Teshima? Did he catch up? [17:48] Funatsu     No, it's not Teshima who's accelerating. [17:53] Funatsu     It's Aoyagi! [17:55] Yamaguchi     He's pushing him with his hand? [17:59] Yamaguchi     So he's planning to push Teshima until     the last second before launching him. [18:04] Funatsu     But he's just a climber. [18:06] Funatsu     He'll lose speed the moment he's launched. [18:09] Funatsu     Victory belongs to us sprinters! [18:12] Funatsu     Where will he launch him? [18:15] Funatsu     Well? Well? Well? [18:20] Funatsu     Why isn't he launching? [18:22] Teshima     Aoyagi... [18:23] Aoyagi     Match your movements, gear,     and breathing to mine, Junta. [18:27] Aoyagi     I'm going to keep pushing you at max     speed until we cross the last line. [18:32] Teshima     The last line? [18:35] Aoyagi     Here we go, Junta. [18:39] Funatsu     Crap. If they pass us... [18:44] Teshima     Fifty meters left. [18:46] Aoyagi     Let's go, Junta. One last acceleration. [18:53] Aoyagi     If I can make one wish, [18:57] Aoyagi     then just for a little while, [19:00] Aoyagi     take this pain away! [19:07] (Flashback) Aoyagi     In that case... [19:09] (Flashback) Aoyagi     Let's make it two. [19:11] Teshima     Aoyagi, it's a little early,     but let me just say... [19:16] Teshima     Thank you for fighting with     me for these last three years. [19:22] Teshima     Thank you. [19:27] Aoyagi     Junta, I can feel your     gratitude through my hand. [19:37] Yamaguchi     I can't believe they did that. [19:42] Yamaguchi     Funatsu... [19:44] Yamaguchi     You did well. Thank you, Funatsu. [19:50] Yamaguchi     We lost, but strangely, I feel satisfied. [19:55] Yamaguchi     Now I can end my last Inter-High. [20:00] Yamaguchi     But... [20:02] Yamaguchi     I'm sorry, Ishigaki-san. [20:06] Yamaguchi     I never managed to... [20:14] Yamaguchi     become his conscience. [20:22] Mizuta     M-Midousuji-kun, someone's     coming up from behind. [20:28] Komari     Sohoku... [20:33] Mizuta     Those two lost? [20:36] Midousuji     What is it, Komari-kun? [20:40] Kishigami     Nothing. [20:41] Kishigami     Just thinking about how [20:44] Kishigami     steadfastly riding through to the     end is a beautiful way to go, too. [20:48] Midousuji     You mean Yamaguchi-kun, huh? SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [21:00] Teshima     You really saved my neck. [21:02] Teshima     Thank you, Hajime. [21:05] Aoyagi     Sure thing, Junta. [21:07] Teshima     Is your knee okay? [21:09] Aoyagi     It hurts, but I'm okay. I feel amazing. [21:15] Aoyagi     Look. You can see them. [21:19] Teshima     That's... Those jerseys... [21:22] Aoyagi     Yeah. It's Team Sohoku. [21:26] Onoda     Th-They're here! It's them! [21:28] Imaizumi     Teshima-san. [21:30] Naruko     For real? [21:31] Kaburagi     Aoyagi! [21:33] Teshima     He's right. I feel amazing, too, [21:36] Teshima     now that we've been reunited     with our fantastic team. [21:39] Teshima     Onoda, Imaizumi, Naruko,     and Kaburagi, sorry I'm late. [21:44] Aoyagi     I'm back with one of our climbers. [21:48] Onoda     Now Team Sohoku has all six of its members. [21:53] Kaburagi     Aoyagi! I'm glad you made it back, Aoyagi! [21:57] Aoyagi     I keep telling you this,     but I'm a third-year, [22:00] Aoyagi     and you're just a first-year. [22:02] Kaburagi     There's something I wanted to tell you. [22:05] Aoyagi     Are you listening? You're not listening. [22:07] Kaburagi     Listen, I... [22:10] Kaburagi     I'm so overwhelmed, I can't speak. [22:12] Imaizumi     Come on! [22:14] Naruko     This guy really is an idiot! [22:16] Onoda     Teshima-san, I know you just caught up,      but there's no time to waste. [22:22] Teshima     I'm sure. I see what's going on here. [22:26] Teshima     You guys were supposed to be     riding with Hakone Academy, [22:30] Teshima     but they're already gone. [22:33] (Flashback) Izumida     Enough. We've waited long enough. [22:37] (Flashback) Izumida     Let's go. Hakone Academy,     it's time to accelerate. [22:40] (Flashback) Izumida     Abs! [22:40] (Flashback) All     Yeah! [22:43] Imaizumi     And then they disappeared from     our sight a few minutes ago. [22:47] Teshima     I see. [22:49] Onoda     Give us our orders, Teshima-san. [22:52] Teshima     No matter how many climbers     we bring for the critical moment, [22:56] Teshima     you don't stand a chance unless     you're at the front in road races. [23:00] Teshima     Let's do whatever it takes to catch up. [23:03] Teshima     These are your orders. [23:04] Teshima     We'll catch up to Hakone Academy on     these flats before the mountains begin. [23:09] Teshima     Kaburagi, get up there. [23:10] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [23:11] Teshima     Naruko! [23:12] Naruko     Yes, sir. [23:13] Teshima     Aoyagi! [23:13] Aoyagi     Yeah, Junta. [23:15] Teshima     After them! [23:17] All     Yeah!

[03:55] Imaizumi     are currently doing their     best to make that happen. [04:00] Koga     They finally got all six members     together in the eleventh hour. [04:03] Sugimoto     Koga-san...

[05:54] Kaburagi     Watching him ride at full     power in front of me... [05:58] Kaburagi     reminds me of everything that's happened. [06:04] Kaburagi     For some reason, I started crying. [06:09] Aoyagi     Do you see that, Kaburagi? [06:11] Aoyagi     That's the finish line I've been racing     toward for these past three years. [06:19] Aoyagi     I'm almost there.

[06:36] Kaburagi     For some reason, watching     Aoyagi-san ride is making me cry. [06:41] Naruko     Hotshot. [06:42] Imaizumi     I know. [06:44] Imaizumi     So does Onoda. [06:46] Imaizumi     He's giving 110%. This is his last ride. [06:51] Kaburagi     What do you mean, last ride? [06:54] Imaizumi     I meant exactly what I said. [06:55] Kaburagi     What? [06:57] Imaizumi     It always happens on the third and final day. [07:01] Imaizumi     There comes a moment when     your teammates drop out. [07:05] Kaburagi     What? Drop out? What are you talking about? [07:09] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san is strong like steel. [07:12] Kaburagi     He's always been there in front     of me to help and lead me.

[07:26] Imaizumi     Face forward, Kaburagi. [07:29] Imaizumi     Accept the truth. [07:31] Imaizumi     Even if your brain refuses to     understand it, your body knows. [07:36] Imaizumi     That's why you're crying. [07:40] Imaizumi     Everyone's moved by the sight     of a man finishing his job. [07:47] Imaizumi     What you should be doing now     is watching his final moments. [07:52] Imaizumi     You should be listening     to his hopes and dreams...

[08:22] Aoyagi     It wasn't for long, but I'm glad     we got to ride together in the end. [08:35] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san! [08:40] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san has fallen. [08:43] Kaburagi     He's been separated from the team. [08:45] Kaburagi     And... [08:48] Kaburagi     We just caught up to Hakone Academy! [08:51] Doubashi     You came, orange! [08:54] Izumida     I thought we'd pulled ahead completely, [08:57] Izumida     but this year's Sohoku seems     to be rather persistent again. [09:01] Izumida     You did well to catch up. [09:03] Izumida     Allow me to congratulate you. [09:05] Izumida     The entrance to the mountains     is 3.3 kilometers ahead.

[09:17] Izumida     Your team would've been scattered by     the steep, narrow, and long climb. [09:22] Izumida     It was the dispassionate and correct choice [09:25] Izumida     to give up one of your teammates     to catch up to us now. [09:30] Kaburagi     Don't call it a dispassionate choice. [09:32] Kaburagi     Don't talk about him like a     card or piece we sacrificed. [09:36] Kaburagi     No one is stronger than Aoyagi-san!

[13:19] Doubashi     Seems like you're more than just     an idiot with a full head of steam. [13:23] Doubashi     I bet you take practice     surprisingly seriously. [13:26] Kaburagi     What? [13:30] Kaburagi     Absolutely not! I never practice in secret! [13:33] Kaburagi     After all, I'm a genius! [13:35] Doubashi     Yeah, right. Someone who doesn't practice     wouldn't have made it this far. [13:40] Doubashi     I like guys who take practice seriously. [13:44] Doubashi     It's the right thing to do. [13:45] Kaburagi     Huh? [13:47] Kaburagi     You're confessing your love for me now? [13:49] Doubashi     No, idiot! Pay attention to the context! [13:54] Doubashi     You're the first opponent     I've ever praised during a raise. [13:58] Doubashi     The gate's finally come into view.

[14:18] Doubashi     Go on, orange.     Look, the finish line's in view. [14:23] Doubashi     Izumida-san said neither the     sprint nor the mountains matter. [14:28] Doubashi     You can have 'em. [14:30] Doubashi     We've claimed plenty of number tags already. [14:33] Doubashi     The only thing left for us     to take is the finish line. [14:36] Doubashi     The number tag's right there. Go on. SIGN    rd Day [14:39] Doubashi     Abandon the teammates following behind you. [14:43] Onoda     T-Teshima-san... [14:45] Doubashi     Don't you want honor? Your own medal?

[15:15] Fan B     Fifty meters to go! [15:17] Onoda     Teshima-san, if Kaburagi-kun goes     alone now, the team will scatter. [15:22] Fan B     Thirty meters to go! [15:24] Fan C     Who's gonna go for the sprint? [15:29] Onoda     What? They're not attacking? [15:32] Fan A     What was that? [15:34] Fan B     Nobody accelerated? [15:36] Fan C     Was it a tie? [15:38] Fan A     No, Hakone Academy was a little faster. [15:43] Doubashi     That was an impressive     display of patience, orange. [15:46] Kaburagi     Of course. [15:47] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san taught me through his riding     and trusted me to pull the team. [15:53] Kaburagi     So...

[16:29] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun used to be so     focused on his own victory, [16:34] Onoda     but now he's supporting his     teammates and carrying the hopes [16:38] Onoda     entrusted to him by his teammates. [16:39] Onoda     He's riding the Sohoku way with     his entire heart and soul. [16:45] Kaburagi     You're not getting away     from me, Hakone Academy. [16:48] Doubashi     I'll snap your hopes in half, orange. [16:53] Onoda     He's grown. [16:55] Onoda     He's getting stronger. [16:58] Onoda     And I'm experiencing that first-hand. [17:01] Onoda     It's incredible. Bicycles really are amazing. [17:06] Onoda     We carry on the hopes of our teammates     and let our riding do the talking.

[17:32] Izumida     Turn their raised morale into despair. [17:42] Doubashi     Sorry, orange. Playtime is over. [17:46] Doubashi     This jersey is too tight.

[18:12] Kaburagi     Come on, fix yourself.     Fix yourself this instant! [18:16] Izumida     Perhaps it was too great a     responsibility for a first-year. [18:20] Izumida     Unfortunately for you, we've won this race. [18:24] Teshima     Don't you know, Izumida? [18:26] Teshima     We're a team that supports each other. [18:29] Kaburagi     Huh? What? [18:31] Naruko     Kabu, let's swap. [18:31] Imaizumi     Showoff, let's swap. [18:31] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun, let's swap. [18:33] Kaburagi     Naruko-san, Onoda-san, Imaizumi-san!

[18:50] Kaburagi     Onoda-san! [18:51] Onoda     Fix your leg while you're doing that. [18:53] Kaburagi     Thank you. [18:56] Kaburagi     Damn it. What is this? [18:59] Kaburagi     Our twin aces are pulling the team, and our     best climber is letting me lean on him. [19:03] Kaburagi     This is awesome. I'm so hyped up. [19:07] Kaburagi     Okay, all better. [19:09] Onoda     Great. [19:10] Imaizumi     Kaburagi, you're going to catch up, right? [19:13] Imaizumi     You're not going to lose     to Doubashi, are you? [19:15] Kaburagi     No, sir. [19:16] Naruko     Go on and show off. Seize the spotlight. [19:19] Naruko     A man's gotta be flashy. [19:21] Kaburagi     Yes, sir. [19:22] Onoda     Good luck, Kaburagi-kun. [19:24] Kaburagi     Yes, sir! [19:29] Kaburagi     Thanks. [19:30] Kaburagi     I thought I'd say it beforehand. [19:34] Kaburagi     I'm going all-out after this, [19:36] Kaburagi     so I probably won't be able to speak     at the end due to lack of oxygen. [19:42] Kaburagi     I can say it clearly now. [19:45] Kaburagi     Sohoku is the ultimate team. [19:48] Kaburagi     So I'll ride for my team until     my legs can't move anymore. [19:59] Onoda     Imaizumi-kun! [20:00] Imaizumi     Yeah. [20:01] Kaburagi     I'm gonna catch up to you, Hakone Academy. [20:05] Imaizumi     He's steeled his resolve. [20:08] Imaizumi     He figured out what his role is. [20:10] Imaizumi     He knows... [20:12] Imaizumi     He'll be leaving the team soon. [20:17] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun! [20:19] Onoda     No. [20:20] Onoda     Shouting about it won't change anything.

[20:32] Onoda     That's how it goes. [20:35] Onoda     I know that. [20:36] Onoda     I know that, but... [20:39] Kaburagi     What is it, Onoda-san? [20:41] Kaburagi     Are you wondering why we haven't     caught up to Hakone Academy yet? [20:44] Onoda     No, it's not that. [20:46] Kaburagi     It figures last year's champion     would have harsh words for me. [20:51] Kaburagi     It's all right. We're almost there. [20:54] Kaburagi     When I accelerate, I imagine giant gears. [21:00] Kaburagi     When those mesh together completely,     I get a huge burst of speed. [21:06] Kaburagi     I think I've got this. [21:07] Kaburagi     Mesh together, mesh together, mesh together. [21:11] Kaburagi     Mesh together, mesh together, mesh together. [21:15] Kaburagi     They're in. [21:17] Kaburagi     Time to accelerate! [21:19] Kaburagi     Onoda-san, watch this! [21:26] Onoda     Kaburagi-kun's trying so hard,     but there's nothing I can do for him. [21:32] Teshima     Does it hurt, Onoda? [21:35] Teshima     Does it hurt not being able     to do anything to help [21:38] Teshima     the first-year who's giving his all? [21:41] Teshima     It must. After all, you've     never had a junior before. [21:47] Teshima     In times like these, Onoda, you watch them. [21:51] Onoda     Huh? [21:52] Teshima     Watch his growth, failures,     and attempts closely. [21:57] Teshima     And when he uses up everything     he's got to finish the job, [22:01] Teshima     shower him with praise. [22:03] Teshima     That's all you need to do. [22:06] Teshima     Juniors always want their     seniors to watch them. [22:13] Teshima     The paths they've walked until now, [22:15] Teshima     and the paths they'll walk in the future. [22:18] Onoda     We want our seniors to watch the     paths we'll walk in the future. [22:22] Onoda     I need to raise my head. [22:25] Kaburagi     Come on, turn! [22:28] Onoda     I have to watch him. [22:30] Onoda     That's what I can do for Kaburagi-kun. [22:34] Onoda     That's right. Naruko-kun said the same thing. [22:37] (Flashback) Naruko     So pass on their kindness to your juniors. [22:42] Onoda     You can do it, Kaburagi-kun. [22:44] Onoda     Go, Kaburagi-kun! [22:47] Onoda     I'm watching you, Kaburagi-kun! [22:51] Onoda     No, Kaburagi Issa! [22:56] Kaburagi     What's gotten into you, Onoda-san? [22:59] Kaburagi     You suddenly dropped the honorifics. [23:01] Kaburagi     That really hypes me up! [23:06] Kaburagi     After all, I joined Sohoku     because I looked up to you!

[10:54] Yuuto     Did you know... [10:55] Yuuto     that this route is apparently an     old road to a famous hot spring? [11:02] Yuuto     Do you like hot springs? [11:05] Teshima     Be careful, Onoda.     He's trying to disrupt our pace. [11:10] Yuuto     Is that a yes? [11:13] Onoda     That's too close! [11:14] Imaizumi     They're already attacking. [11:16] Naruko     So that's Shinkai Yuuto. [11:18] Teshima     He's acting sooner than expected. [11:19] Teshima     He shows no mercy or hesitation. [11:24] Yuuto     You've been pulling your team since we     entered the mountains, King of the Mountains. [11:29] Yuuto     Why is that? [11:31] Yuuto     Why would your team have their     number one rider pull in the mountains [11:35] Yuuto     when they should be saving his strength? [11:37] Yuuto     Is this your strategy? Or is it... [11:43] Onoda     Shinkai-kun accelerated. [11:45] Naruko     Crap! [11:46] Teshima     They're attacking as soon as     we've entered the mountains? [11:55] Teshima     But we can't allow him to go without a fight. [12:00] Teshima     Go, Onoda and Imaizumi. [12:02] Imaizumi & Onoda     Yes, sir. [12:09] Yuuto     They're fast. Dangerously fast. [12:18] Yuuto     The King of the Mountains     and Imaizumi-san the ace. [12:21] Imaizumi     There's no reason to rush, Shinkai. [12:23] Imaizumi     We've got plenty of mountain to climb. [12:26] Imaizumi     Or are you eager to visit     the hot springs up ahead? [12:31] Yuuto     I suppose you're right. [12:33] Yuuto     It'll feel better once     I've worked up a sweat. [12:39] Teshima     We survived Hakone Academy's     first attack, but... [12:43] Kuroda     Aw, man. It didn't work. [12:45] Manami     The timing was good, though. [12:48] Ashikiba     Imaizumi's fast, too. [12:51] Teshima     Manami, Ashikiba, Kuroda... [12:53] Teshima     After sending Shinkai alone,     they've got strength to spare. [12:57] Teshima     We sent Onoda and Imaizumi,     so it's just me and Naruko. [13:00] Teshima     And... [13:03] Teshima     Naruko, have you noticed? [13:05] Naruko     Of course. One guy you don't normally     see in the mountains is taggin' along. [13:11] Teshima     Hakone Academy captain and     sprinter, Izumida Touichirou. [13:16] Izumida     What are you staring at? [13:19] Izumida     I practiced with Hakone     Academy for three years. [13:23] Izumida     I'm capable of keeping up     on a little climb like this. [13:26] Teshima     What's their angle? [13:28] Teshima     It's true that Izumida left the     flats entirely up to Doubashi [13:33] Teshima     and didn't pull a single time. [13:36] Teshima     Is this your strategy? [13:38] Izumida     Since this is my last Inter-High,     I thought I'd enjoy the mountain view. [13:45] Izumida     Andy and Frank are delighted, too. [13:49] Imaizumi     Five... [13:50] Onoda     This year, Hakone Academy's bringing     five men into the mountains. [13:56] Miki     Mt. Haruna. [13:58] Miki     The third and final day's race     that started at Lake Haruna [14:02] Miki     heads west along the gently sloping     hills of National Route 145 [14:06] Miki     after a long downhill. [14:09] Miki     It turns right at Sukawa Bridge     over the Agatsuma River [14:12] Miki     and heads north along National Route 292. [14:16] Miki     It takes a left at the fork beyond that point [14:20] Miki     and rises along a steep mountain road. [14:23] Miki     Beyond the trees on that     steep and narrow path [14:28] Miki     is an old hot spring town     surrounded by mountains. [14:32] Miki     At 1,156 meters above sea level,     30,000 liters of water gush forth every minute. [14:38] Aya     Oh, I know. [14:39] Aya     You're talking about the     Kusatsu Hot Springs, right? [14:41] Miki     Correct. [14:42] Aya     That place is famous. [14:44] Miki     But we'll be passing through today. [14:46] Aya     What? That's not where the finish line is? [14:48] Miki     Nope. [14:49] Aya     We won't get to visit the hot springs? [14:51] Aya     No Yubatake? No Yumomi? [14:54] Koga     The Kusatsu Hot Springs are at     1,100 meters above sea level, [14:58] Koga     but there's an even taller     mountain providing the area [15:02] Koga     with an abundance of water     and geothermal energy. [15:04] Koga     It's known as the Mt. Kusatsu-Shirane. [15:07] Koga     This Inter-High's finish line [15:09] Koga     is at the top of that mountain, [15:11] Koga     at over than 2,000 meters above sea level. SIGN    Highest Point in the Japanese National Highway System     2,172 Meters Above Sea Level [15:15] Koga     On the border between Gunma and     Nagano Prefectures at Shibu Toge Pass, [15:19] Koga     the highest point in the     Japanese national highway system, [15:22] Koga     the finish line is at     2,172 meters above sea level. [15:26] Aya     The highest point? That's where     they put the finish line? [15:30] Aya     Wait, there's way more mountain ahead. [15:33] Aya     They've got so much farther to climb. [15:35] Miki     You're right. [15:37] Koga     On the final climb after Kusatsu, [15:40] Koga     the roads are wide, but not only     is there hardly anywhere to rest, [15:44] Koga     but the trees are short,     and the wind is strong. [15:47] Koga     If they fall behind on the gentle     climb leading to Kusatsu, [15:52] Koga     Team Sohoku will have no chance of winning. [15:55] Naruko     This ain't good. [15:56] Naruko     Kuroda and Ashikiba are attackin'. [15:59] Teshima     Damn it. We thought we'd     stopped Shinkai's attack, [16:02] Teshima     but they're already launching     their second attack. [16:04] Teshima     If we fall behind now, it's over. [16:06] Teshima     Let's go, Naruko. [16:07] Naruko     Yes, sir. [16:14] Teshima     No, wait. What are they     planning to do about Izumida? [16:18] Teshima     Are they going to leave     their sprinter behind? [16:22] Manami     Here we go. [16:23] Izumida     Abdeed. [16:25] Naruko     Teshima-san, Hakone Academy's last     two guys are acceleratin', too. [16:28] Teshima     A third attack? They're making     Manami pull so they can catch up. [16:32] Teshima     Let's raise our pace, Naruko. [16:34] Naruko     Yes, sir. [16:35] Teshima     They've even turned pulling     their sprinter into an attack. [16:39] Teshima     Hakone Academy's power is     so broad and overwhelming. [16:46] Teshima     We can't let our guard     down for even a second. [16:50] Teshima     Not bad. [16:51] Teshima     You launched an all-out attack     as soon as the climb started. [16:54] Teshima     Are you trying to scatter our team     before the final climb, Izumida? [17:00] Izumida     I wish I could say you're correct, [17:02] Izumida     but you're mistaken about     one thing, Teshima-kun. [17:06] Izumida     This plan isn't mine. [17:09] Izumida     Since the moment the climb started,     control of Hakone Academy shifted... [17:15] Izumida     to this man, Kuroda Yukinari. [17:18] Kuroda     Huh? [17:20] Kuroda     Don't give it away, Touichirou. [17:23] Teshima     Kuroda is their commander from     here until the finish line? [17:27] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san has taken over? [17:29] Naruko     Those three attacks were his call? [17:32] Kuroda     Now let's see, who should I attack with next? [17:37] Onoda     They're strong. Hakone Academy     is strong this year, too. [17:41] Koga     And if they think Hakone Academy     is their only opponent, [17:46] Koga     their situation is even more desperate. [17:48] Koga     They'll be coming for the finish line, too. [17:53] Midousuji     Mizuta-kun... [17:58] Midousuji     Come on, pull harder. [18:02] Mizuta     I'm already pulling as hard as I can. [18:05] Midousuji     More. [18:08] Mizuta     This doesn't make sense. [18:09] Mizuta     Why am I pulling through the flats? [18:14] Mizuta     When Midousuji told me to stick with     him during last night's meeting, [18:19] Mizuta     it wasn't because he trusted me     to take on the King of the Mountains, [18:22] Mizuta     or the final finish line because I finished     second in the mountains the day before! [18:28] Mizuta     Damn, damn. Why am I     burning up my energy? [18:32] Mizuta     I'm a third-year. I'm the captain. [18:34] Mizuta     This should be first-year Komari's job. [18:39] Midousuji     More, Mizuta-kun. [18:42] Mizuta     Shouldn't Komari be doing this? [18:45] Midousuji     No. [18:48] Mizuta     No? [18:50] Mizuta     This jerk... [18:51] Mizuta     I know. So that's what it is. [18:53] Mizuta     He really stepped in it. [18:56] Mizuta     He made a strategic error. [18:58] Mizuta     Now that I think about it, all kinds of     funny business went down in this race. [19:01] Mizuta     We took advantage of the     moment's opening that occurred [19:05] Mizuta     when a single Sohoku rider was swallowed     up by the pack and left them behind. [19:08] Mizuta     If we'd stayed together,     we might've caught up to the front. [19:12] Mizuta     But instead, he put them up to     that nonsensical race and lost. [19:17] Mizuta     On top of that, we didn't even chase     after those two Sohoku riders. [19:22] Mizuta     And now we're in this situation. [19:25] Mizuta     Your faults have been exposed, Midousuji. [19:29] Midousuji     What? [19:31] Mizuta     Are you satisfied after     winning the second day? [19:34] Mizuta     You made us shave our heads     because we got carried away, [19:38] Mizuta     but ultimately you were     the one most drunk on victory. [19:43] Midousuji     Huh? [19:45] Mizuta     There you go again, making your noises. [19:46] Mizuta     I kept quiet until now because I thought you     had a plan, but I can't take it anymore. [19:52] Mizuta     Let me make this clear. [19:53] Mizuta     Komari, you'd better listen closely, too. [19:56] Mizuta     I, Kyoto Fushimi Captain Mizuta Nobuyuki,     have a shocking announcement to make. [20:02] Mizuta     No matter how fast we ride, we'll never     catch up to the guys ahead of us. [20:07] Mizuta     Though he acts like a leader,     Midousuji has made a strategic error. [20:17] Mizuta     I see. You're so surprised,     you can't even speak, Komari. [20:22] Mizuta     Does that frustrate you?     Does that make you sad? [20:24] Mizuta     But this is the truth. [20:27] Mizuta     This guy's judgment has been     clouded after yesterday's events. [20:31] Mizuta     So, Komari, from here on out, I'll be      the team's leader, and together— [20:36] Midousuji     Are you done talking? [20:39] Midousuji     Your cruising speed has dropped. [20:42] Midousuji     Your job is to pull me. [20:46] Midousuji     And unfortunately... [20:50] Midousuji     when we didn't go after     those two Sohoku riders... [20:57] Midousuji     That was on purpose. [20:59] Mizuta     What? [21:00] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy's launching their     fourth attack. It's Ashikiba-san. [21:05] Imaizumi     Damn it. How long are they     going to keep this up? [21:09] Teshima     Onoda, fall back and rest. [21:11] Onoda     Yes, sir. [21:12] Teshima     Naruko, go. [21:14] Naruko     Yes, sir. [21:15] Naruko     You're not goin' anywhere. [21:20] Naruko     Especially not you, beanpole. [21:24] Kuroda     Sohoku's damned persistent. [21:28] Midousuji     It would've been possible     to catch up to those two. [21:31] Midousuji     But what we should be doing is winning. [21:35] Midousuji     The most fearsome situation     in road racing is... [21:40] Midousuji     a single dominant team. [21:42] Midousuji     When one powerful team rides in front     with complete control over the race. [21:48] Midousuji     But with only three of us,     we're at a disadvantage. [21:53] Midousuji     So I allowed those two to join their team. [22:00] Midousuji     Then they were guaranteed     to go after Hakone Academy. [22:05] Midousuji     If someone can catch up to the     dominant team and challenge them... [22:12] Midousuji     their control is disrupted. [22:15] Midousuji     An opportunity is created. [22:19] Midousuji     Don't worry. We're sailing along smoothly. [22:25] Midousuji     Now face forward. [22:28] Midousuji     Don't bother looking back again. [22:30] Midousuji     Don't speak. Just face forward, [22:34] Midousuji     and devote your entire body and soul     to pulling us until you're spent. [22:39] Mizuta     Yes, sir. [22:41] Mizuta     Wait, did you say us? [22:44] Midousuji     You only need to make it until     the end of the first climb. [22:52] Midousuji     The two of us will take     it the rest of the way. [22:55] Midousuji     We'll be attacking soon, Komari-kun. [22:59] Komari     Understood, Midousuji-san. [23:02] Midousuji     The thing you desire most lies     ahead of us on the path ahead. [23:09] Komari     The thing I desire most? [23:15] Komari     Ah... [23:17] Komari     You must mean muscles! E7 - FINAL ROAD!

SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [01:33] Naruko     Hakone Academy's been attackin'     non-stop since we entered the climb. [01:39] Teshima     Yeah. [01:40] Naruko     Little Shinkai started     them off with a splash, [01:44] Naruko     then their commander Kuroda-san     attacked, then Manami. [01:47] Naruko     And just now, it was the lanky Ashikiba. [01:50] Teshima     It's an all-out attack. [01:52] Teshima     Are you struggling, Naruko? [01:53] Naruko     Who do you think you're     talkin' to? This is nothin'. [01:56] Naruko     I'm the flashy genius from      Naniwa, Naruko Shoukichi. [02:03] Teshima     You're right. You guys have stopped all     of Hakone Academy's attacks so far. [02:08] Teshima     Things are going well, more or      less according to plan. [02:12] Teshima     You guys are doing great. [02:14] Teshima     The first climb will be ending soon. [02:16] Teshima     From there, we'll be on the highland road. [02:20] Teshima     For 2.5 kilometers, the elevation     will remain mostly level. [02:23] Teshima     We'll be able to rest until the next climb. SIGN    Kusatsu Hot Springs SIGN    Kusatsu Hot Springs [02:26] Teshima     Thank you, Naruko. [02:28] Naruko     Huh? [02:29] Teshima     For becoming an all-rounder. [02:33] Naruko     Where'd this come from? [02:35] Teshima     I'm grateful we have four     riders at this moment. [02:41] Teshima     Not only that, but you've got     a nose for the finish line. [02:44] Teshima     You could go for the goal. [02:48] Naruko     I'll seize just about anythin'     if you order me to do it. [02:51] Naruko     Should I put my arms around     Onoda-kun and hotshot's shoulders [02:55] Naruko     and hold their hands so the three     of us can finish at the same time? [02:59] Imaizumi     Whoa, whoa... [03:01] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun, isn't that     what you said last year? [03:04] (Flashback) Naruko     I think it'd feel amazing [03:07] (Flashback) Naruko     if we finished first all     three days together. [03:13] Sakamichi     You were still holding onto that promise. [03:18] Imaizumi     Have you been hiding that until now? [03:22] Imaizumi     This year you became an all-rounder. [03:25] Imaizumi     You can even climb mountains. [03:27] Imaizumi     Are you saying there's real     potential for that now? [03:31] Naruko     I'll miraculously pull off the world's first     three-man finish in spectacular fashion. [03:38] Imaizumi     That's ridiculous. But I like     the sound of it, Naruko. [03:42] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun... [03:45] Teshima     What's this pressure coming     off of these three? [03:47] Teshima     Their morale is rising, unbelievably so. [03:52] Teshima     This may be the extra strength we need     to stand against Hakone Academy. [04:00] Teshima     Hakone Academy is making their move. [04:02] Teshima     Who's attacking? Will it be Kuroda or Manami? [04:05] Teshima     The first climb is ending soon. [04:07] Teshima     We'll enter the flats, and... [04:08] Teshima     No, wait. The flats? [04:11] Teshima     Why do I feel like something's wrong? [04:14] Teshima     I may have badly misinterpreted     the situation. [04:18] Teshima     Imaizumi, accelerate. [04:19] Teshima     Bring us next to Hakone Academy right away. [04:22] Imaizumi     What? What do you mean? [04:24] Teshima     How did I not notice when it's so simple? [04:27] Teshima     There's only one man Hakone     Academy would send now. [04:30] Teshima     It's their sprinter Izumida. [04:33] Teshima     He's going to accelerate and     pull his team along with him. [04:35] Imaizumi     Izumida-san! [04:37] Sakamichi     What? [04:37] Naruko     Lashes, huh? [04:38] Teshima     Damn. [04:40] Teshima     I thought the flats up ahead would     be an opportunity for us to rest. [04:44] Teshima     But from the start, Hakone Academy     was planning to use them to attack. [04:50] Teshima     That's why they brought a     sprinter into the mountains. [04:57] Imaizumi     He's so fast. [04:58] Teshima     What's important here is not falling     behind during this first climb. [05:03] Kuroda     Go! Scatter the enemy. [05:06] Kuroda     It's the flats you've been waiting for. [05:09] Kuroda     Zip up your jersey... [05:11] Kruoda     Izumida Touichiro. [05:14] Izumida     Of course, Yuki. [05:16] Izumida     I zip up my jersey all the way to the top... [05:22] Izumida     whenever I get serious. [05:26] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs! [05:28] Teshima     Imaizumi, don't fall behind.     Go after him at full speed. [05:31] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [05:34] Kuroda     Honestly, this is pointless, Sohoku. [05:36] Kuroda     You can't catch up. [05:38] Kuroda     Our Izumida is a super sprinter. [05:42] Kuroda     And Touichirou's putting his entire     being into sprinting right now. [05:42] Izumida     Abs, abs, abs! [05:48] Kuroda     Sorry. Thank you, Touichirou. [05:52] (Flashback) Izumida     A change of plans? [05:54] (Flashback) Izumida     You want to use me in the mountains? [05:56] (Flashback) Kuroda     That's right. [05:57] (Flashback) Kuroda     Tomorrow, every team will bring out     their sprinters before the climb begins. [06:02] (Flashback) Kuroda     But there are 2.5 kilometers of flats     before the climb at the hot springs. [06:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     Normally teams would consider     it a place to rest, [06:11] (Flashback) Kuroda     but I'd like to attack there instead. [06:13] (Flashback) Izumida     Wait. That would mean     the flats before that... [06:16] (Flashback) Kuroda     Will be handled by Doubashi alone. [06:21] (Flashback) Doubashi     I don't mind, Izumida-san. [06:23] (Flashback) Izumida     Doubashi... [06:25] (Flashback) Kuroda     I want to establish a solid lead. [06:27] (Flashback) Izumida     Yuki... [06:28] (Flashback) Izumida     With that plan, I'd have to climb     the initial mountains with the team. [06:32] (Flashback) Izumida     I'm best on flats. [06:34] (Flashback) Izumida     It could be a risky gamble. [06:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     No, I actually think you     might be able to pull it off. [06:42] (Flashback) Kuroda     Not only have you ridden with     Hakone Academy for three years, [06:46] (Flashback) Kuroda     but you've also carried on the role of     captain while being a sprinter. [06:51] (Flashback) Kuroda     I know because I've always been watching you. [06:53] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're probably three times     stronger than you think. [06:57] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're probably three times     stronger than you think. [06:59] Izumida     Yuki... [07:00] Izumida     Abs, Yuki! [07:03] Izumida     Yuki, we've been together      since we were little. [07:06] Izumida     I secretly admired the way you     elegantly handled any sport. [07:12] Izumida     I was overjoyed when you said you'd come to     Hakone Academy and ride bicycles with me. [07:17] Izumida     But while working our hardest,     I eventually surpassed you. [07:27] (Flashback) Izumida     Don't worry, Yuki. [07:30] (Flashback) Izumida     You have a lot of potential. [07:33] (Flashback) Izumida     Even if you don't make it     this year, next year— [07:34] (Flashback) Kuroda     Don't try to cheer me up! [07:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     You're lucky you get to race. [07:40] (Flashback) Kuroda     Go ride your heart out at the Inter-High. [07:45] (Flashback) Izumida     Yuki... [07:47] (Flashback) Kuroda     They called me a genius, but I... [07:55] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'm sorry. [07:57] (Flashback) Kuroda     I know grabbing you by the     collar won't change anything. [08:04] (Flashback) Kuroda     I know. [08:06] (Flashback) Kuroda     Touichirou, I'm frustrated.     I'm so damn frustrated. [08:12] Izumida     Yuki... [08:15] Izumida     Those countless frustrating     experiences changed you. [08:20] Izumida     You became graceful, lithesome, and powerful. [08:23] Izumida     Determined, too. [08:26] Izumida     You honed your thirst and nose for victory. [08:30] Izumida     I'll accept any plan you throw at me. [08:33] Izumida     I'll grant any desire you have. [08:35] Izumida     I'll pour my entire body and     soul into these final flats. [08:41] Yuuto     Sohoku's still keeping up. [08:43] Yuuto     Izumida-san! [08:46] Izumida     Don't worry, Yuuto. [08:49] Izumida     I've been listening to their newborn cries. [08:51] Yuuto     Newborn cries? [08:52] Izumida     From my muscles, I mean. [08:54] Izumida     Soon they'll appear in     response to my summons. [09:00] Izumida     Come on out, my right pec, Andy,      and my left pec, Frank. [09:06] Izumida     My back muscles Fabian are waiting, too. [09:10] Izumida     The muscles that produce fierce acceleration     in the sprint before the finish line... [09:17] Izumida     are the quads. [09:19] Izumida     Using the legs on the top     side of my legs allows me to [09:22] Izumida     generate overwhelming instantaneous     and explosive power. [09:27] Izumida     However, at the same time, [09:29] Izumida     once I've exhausted them, it's over. [09:31] Izumida     My legs stop moving. [09:33] Izumida     Therefore, they are the Final Muscles. [09:36] Yuuto     He's going to awaken his Final Muscles? [09:40] Izumida     I see. Sorry, sorry. [09:43] Izumida     I hadn't called you by your names yet. [09:46] Izumida     Come on out, both of you... [09:50] Izumida     Left quad, Peter! [09:52] Izumida     Right quad, Mark! [09:56] Izumida     Let us ride together as a spear of light! [10:00] Izumida     The remaining two kilometers of     highland flats are our final job! [10:05] Izumida     Ab you ready? Final road! [10:10] Izumida     Go! Abs! [10:15] Izumida     What? Hakone Academy accelerated again? [10:20] Izumida     Let us go beyond the light! [10:23] Izumida     Abs! Abs, abs, abs, abs!! [10:29] Izumida     Ah, I can hear your joyous voices ringing. [10:33] Izumida     Come on out. Don't be shy. [10:36] Izumida     You can give everything you've got. [10:38] Izumida     Ah, yes. With your strength,     I shall become... [10:44] Izumida     The world's fastest spear! [10:51] Imaizumi     Damn. I even chased after him at full speed. [10:55] Imaizumi     It's only been one kilometer     since the flats started, [10:58] Imaizumi     and they've vanished from sight. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [11:10] Yuuto     Heck yeah! We did it. [11:13] Yuuto     Sohoku has vanished from sight,      just as we planned. [11:17] Yuuto     We've established a definitive     lead in the flats, Izumida-san. [11:21] Izumida     Burn this into your eyes,     first-year Shinkai Yuuto. [11:26] Izumida     This is how the man who wears the     number four for Hakone Academy rides. [11:30] Yuuto     Huh? [11:32] Yuuto     I kept sprinting because     I looked up to your brother. [11:35] Izumida     This is everything I've got! Abs! [11:42] Yuuto     What is this feeling? I'm so emotional. [11:47] Yuuto     It makes me want to join him and ride,      like I'm being pulled to him. [11:52] Yuuto     This is how Hakone Academy's     number four rides, [11:56] Yuuto     Izumida-san?! [11:57] Izumida     I'm moving. My body is moving. [12:00] Izumida     So freely, however I please. [12:03] Izumida     I can follow the line I've imagined     without a millimeter of imprecision. [12:08] Izumida     My physical body is moving, and my spirit     races several centimeters above that. [12:13] Izumida     Sounds are fading away. So are smells. [12:23] Izumida     I know. When this happens... [12:28] Izumida     the end is near. [12:35] Fan A     The leaders are here! [12:37] Fan B     It's Hakone Academy! [12:38] Fans     Their sprinter Izumida is pulling! [12:39] Fans     Hakone Academy are riding like champions! [12:40] Fans     There's less than one kilometer left     until you enter the next mountains! [12:43] Fans     You can do it! [12:44] Izumida     The Inter-High is incredible. [12:48] Izumida     My entire body is delighted, Yuki! [12:52] Kuroda     Touichirou... [12:53] Izumida     I feel like I could ride forever, Takuto! [12:57] Ashikiba     Tou-chan... [13:00] Fans     You're almost at the last climb! [13:01] Fans     Go, Hakone Academy! [13:06] Izumida     These three years have been     a dream, Yuki and Takuto. [13:11] Izumida     Thank you for supporting me. [13:15] Izumida     When Arakita-san once hurled insults     at Shinkai-san at the Inter-High, [13:20] Izumida     I saw the trust that was still between them, [13:23] Izumida     and felt that between men who had     fought for three years together [13:26] Izumida     on the ultimate team known as Hakone Academy, [13:29] Izumida     there must be a unique shared feeling     beyond simple trust or connection. [13:38] Izumida     And we clearly have that, too. [13:42] Izumida     Yuuto, Manami, Doubashi... [13:47] Izumida     Thank you for following us. [13:51] Fans     They're passing the hot springs! [13:52] Fans     The climb starts here! [14:04] Izumida     Be proud of yourselves. [14:06] Izumida     Carry that pride up to the finish line. [14:10] Fans     One of Hakone Academy's riders is falling! [14:14] Izumida     You were the ultimate team. [14:17] Izumida     So allow me to say in the end,     as your captain... [14:22] Izumida     Be champions, Hakone Academy! [14:25] Yuuto & Manami     Yes, sir! [14:26] Ashikiba & Kuroda     Yeah! [14:33] Izumida     Jerseys fading into the distance... [14:36] Izumida     My legs ceasing their movements... [14:42] Izumida     I'm counting on you to finish the rest. [14:49] Izumida     You worked hard, Peter, Mark,     Andy, Frank, and Fabian. [14:56] Izumida     It's all right now. You can rest. [15:01] Izumida     You did the best I could've asked for. [15:12] Izumida     Thanks to you, the team established     a solid lead over Sohoku. [15:18] Izumida     It must be 500 meters—no, perhaps 700. [15:22] Naruko     We've entered the climb, but I don't see     Hakone Academy anywhere, Teshima-san. [15:28] Teshima     They got us. [15:29] Teshima     Things went exactly according to their plan. [15:32] Sakamichi     How far ahead do you think     they are, Imaizumi-kun? [15:35] Imaizumi     Judging by the power of Izumida-san's     pulling and his acceleration, [15:39] Imaizumi     probably 500 meters. [15:41] Sakamichi     500 meters... [15:43] Naruko     That's probably an underestimate, hotshot. [15:46] Naruko     Check out the fans by the road. [15:48] Naruko     Some of them are sittin'. [15:50] Naruko     They're even drinkin', too. [15:52] Naruko     That's proof it's been a while     since the lead pack passed through. [15:56] Naruko     Honestly, I think they're 700 meters     ahead, though I hate to say it. [16:00] Imaizumi     700... [16:01] Sakamichi     That much? [16:03] Naruko     Several millimeters of difference determine     who finishes first in road racin'. [16:07] Naruko     100 meters is already hopeless. [16:10] Naruko     200 meters is enough      to make anyone give up, [16:12] Naruko     but we're talkin' about 700. [16:14] Teshima     Damn! That's practically a kilometer. [16:18] Teshima     We don't have a choice. [16:20] Teshima     I misjudged the situation. [16:22] Teshima     I'll pull at full speed and catch up     to Hakone Academy as much as I can. [16:29] Imaizumi     700, huh? [16:32] Naruko     Yeah. [16:33] Sakamichi     That much? [16:34] Imaizumi     Catching up to them now would     be excruciatingly difficult. [16:38] Naruko     It'd be extra spicy and super hard. [16:40] Sakamichi     Wow, that sounds d-difficult. [16:44] Imaizumi     All right, Naruko. You'll pull first. [16:46] Naruko     You're not gonna go first, hotshot? [16:48] Sakamichi     I'll pull. We're in the mountains. [16:49] Teshima     What's this? [16:51] Teshima     What's with these guys? [16:53] Teshima     Normally a 700-meter lead would     make anyone pull a sour face. [16:56] Teshima     They'd say it's impossible. [16:59] Teshima     But these guys... [17:00] Imaizumi     I'll pull third. [17:01] Teshima     They fully intend to catch up. [17:02] Naruko     Lame-o. [17:04] Imaizumi     Doesn't bother me. [17:05] Naruko     Now he's acting defiant. [17:05] Teshima     The rising pressure... [17:07] Sakamichi     Come on, guys. [17:07] Teshima     This is what Kinjou-san mentioned     that's most amazing about them. SIGN    Sohoku High School Bicycle Racing Club [17:12] (Flashback) Teshima     They never give up? [17:14] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's right. Especially in tight     corners and hopeless situations, [17:20] (Flashback) Kinjou     the desire of those three first-years     to turn the situation around increases. [17:26] (Flashback) Kinjou     You feel a rising pressure. [17:29] (Flashback) Teshima     I don't feel that much     from them during practice. [17:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     You'll experience it once you race with them. [17:37] (Flashback) Kinjou     And that power will effect a tremendous     change on how the race goes after that. [17:43] (Flashback) Teshima     What should I do? [17:46] (Flashback) Kinjou     It's simple. Look into their eyes [17:50] (Flashback) Kinjou     and tell them you're counting on them. [17:53] Sakamichi     Okay, I'll pull. [17:55] Imaizumi     Thanks. [17:56] Naruko     Onoda-kun's the biggest man among us. [18:01] Teshima     What's with you guys? [18:03] Teshima     I thought you'd lose hope after      Hakone Academy flexed their strength. [18:10] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy certainly     is strong. Exceptionally so. [18:15] Imaizumi     But we can't win by fighting     back using the same methods. [18:21] Imaizumi     Izumida-san is fast, [18:23] Imaizumi     but our legs will never last if     we try to chase him on the flats. [18:26] Naruko     I offered to catch up by pulling     the team, but hotshot said... [18:32] Imaizumi     We don't need to exhaust Naruko     when he's finally learned to climb. [18:39] Imaizumi     We can close the gap established     on the flats in the mountains. [18:43] Naruko     It's a huge friggin' gap, though. [18:45] Sakamichi     Yeah, but we'll do our best. [18:51] Teshima     Can I count on you to do that? [18:52] Naruko     We gotta try. [18:54] Imaizumi     Of course. [18:55] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. We'll go all-out to catch up. [19:03] Teshima     A climb... [19:05] Teshima     In the worst possible scenario... [19:08] Teshima     But he's smiling? [19:10] Teshima     What is this overwhelming pressure? [19:13] Teshima     Onoda, what are you... [19:16] Teshima     Wind pressure? [19:18] Teshima     Since we formed our new team, I hadn't     observed Onoda's max strength up close yet. [19:26] Teshima     This is his maximum high-cadence     climb that's only seen during races. [19:31] Teshima     He's practically managing the speed     fluctuations of climbing with his cadence alone. [19:37] Teshima     His legs spin so fast... [19:39] Teshima     That's Onoda's true strength. [19:41] Teshima     I'm starting to sweat. [19:43] Teshima     What is this? I can feel     myself getting goosebumps. [19:47] Teshima     Is it his focus? [19:50] Teshima     Is it reaching me, too? [19:52] Naruko     Hotshot, Onoda-kun's outta control. [19:55] Naruko     He's real amped up. He's crazy fast. [19:58] Imaizumi     Yeah. He's always like that. [20:01] Imaizumi     More than when riding for himself... [20:04] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Can you catch up to them, Onoda? [20:06] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah. [20:07] Imaizumi     ...he's fastest when      someone's counting on him. [20:15] Teshima     Since he won the Inter-High last year,     the situation surrounding Onoda has changed. [20:22] Teshima     He was even nicknamed the      King of the Mountains [20:25] Teshima     for his control and reign over the climbs. [20:30] Teshima     Plenty have challenged the     King of the Mountains. [20:34] Teshima     Most were perplexed by Onoda's     small and weak appearance. [20:40] Teshima     But once the race began, [20:43] Teshima     they marveled at his overpowering riding [20:46] Teshima     with mouths agape and eyes     round with amazement. [20:50] Imaizumi     Don't push yourself too hard, Onoda. [20:53] Sakamichi     It's tough. I'm struggling to breathe,      and my chest hurts. [20:58] Sakamichi     But it's strange. When I'm riding     with the team, it's so fun. [21:03] Imaizumi     Yeah. [21:06] Naruko     You're right. [21:08] Teshima     He's smiling again. [21:11] Teshima     You're having fun? [21:13] Sakamichi     Sorry, Teshima-san. [21:15] Teshima     Huh? [21:16] Sakamichi     You must be wondering how I'm having     fun when we're in a dire situation. [21:22] Teshima     No, keep pulling the way you are. [21:26] Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [21:31] Teshima     Onoda, do you remember? [21:34] (Flashback) Teshima     They're yours. Use them. [21:38] Teshima     I gave you shoes then. [21:42] Teshima     After losing to you, I wanted to see     just how much faster you'd become. [21:50] Teshima     You grew shockingly quickly. [21:53] Teshima     You overcame all manner of walls     and shattered my assumptions. [21:59] Teshima     But I never thought you'd become this fast. [22:06] Teshima     It's the race official's car. [22:07] Teshima     The one that follows the lead pack! [22:09] Teshima     They must be close. [22:10] Teshima     We're closing the gap between     us and Hakone Academy. [22:13] Naruko     Onoda-kun, let's switch. [22:14] Sakamichi     Okay, thanks. [22:16] Imaizumi     Don't try to stand out, Naruko. [22:18] Naruko     Shut up and watch my super climb. [22:20] Naruko     Here comes the flashiest man     in Naniwa, Naruko Shoukichi— [22:26] Imaizumi     Want me to switch with you? [22:27] Naruko     Shut up! [22:28] Naruko     That was quick! I thought     I told you to shut up and watch! [22:31] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [22:34] Teshima     Onoda has grown tremendously     and beyond expectations. [22:39] Teshima     But even with that,     Hakone Academy's strength... [22:45] Teshima     I'm sorry, Onoda. [22:47] Sakamichi     Huh? [22:48] Teshima     About the third day's—today's orders. [22:52] Sakamichi     Don't worry about it. It's fine. [22:56] Sakamichi     As long as we get to work together as a team.

SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    Teshima's Orders [01:32] Naruko     What do you mean, Onoda won't be     our mountain ace on the third day? [01:38] (Flashback) Naruko     Onoda-kun is last year's champion! [01:40] (Flashback) Naruko     He beat Manami in the mountains     at the end of that race. [01:44] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I can't accept this decision, either. [01:46] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I'd understand if Onoda wasn't doing well. [01:49] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But he's fine. [01:51] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I made sure he'd be in peak     condition during the Inter-High. [01:55] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yeah, I appreciate it. [01:58] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm doing better than ever. [02:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But if that's the decision Teshima-san     made after giving it a lot of thought, [02:05] (Flashback) Sakamichi     then I'll accept those orders. [02:07] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Onoda... [02:09] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm having you step down [02:11] (Flashback) Teshima     because I expect we'll face circumstances     that will force you to anyway. [02:17] (Flashback) Teshima     By the time we enter the final     mountains on the third day, [02:21] (Flashback) Teshima     Hakone Academy will be well-prepared. [02:24] (Flashback) Teshima     And it'll probably be Manami     who gives us the most trouble. [02:30] (Flashback) Teshima     He was Hakone Academy's      first ever first-year regular [02:34] (Flashback) Teshima     and a finalist at last year's Inter-High. [02:36] (Flashback) Teshima     Rumor is he's even stronger this year. [02:40] (Flashback) Teshima     Manami will be launched from     their rock-solid position [02:43] (Flashback) Teshima     and race straight to the finish line. [02:47] (Flashback) Teshima     That's the worst possible     scenario I can think of. [02:51] Sakamichi     Manami-kun... [02:53] Sakamichi     Can I beat Manami-kun now     that he's even stronger? [02:57] Sakamichi     I... [03:00] Sakamichi     There's a road leading to the finish line. [03:03] Sakamichi     A slope climbing up into the sky. [03:05] Sakamichi     There's no telling what will happen there. [03:08] Sakamichi     Everyone rides as hard as they can [03:11] Sakamichi     toward a totally undecided     blank slate of a future. [03:16] Sakamichi     If I got to race against a stronger     Manami-kun and was able to keep up, then I... [03:24] Sakamichi     I would be really happy. [03:27] (Flashback) Teshima     For Sohoku, [03:29] (Flashback) Teshima     it's best for us to take down Manami early. [03:32] Naruko     Take him down... [03:33] Imaizumi     ...early. [03:34] (Flashback) Teshima     We'll make the first attack once     we enter the final mountains. [03:38] (Flashback) Teshima     When we catch up to them,     we'll send one attacker. [03:43] (Flashback) Teshima     They'll send someone after him. [03:45] (Flashback) Teshima     We'll pull him at full speed, keep him      in check, and exhaust his legs. [03:51] (Flashback) Teshima     But the third day's mountains are long. [03:54] (Flashback) Teshima     Whoever makes the first attack will     become exhausted before the end, [03:57] (Flashback) Teshima     be passed by the team, [03:59] (Flashback) Teshima     and stop pedaling because he doesn't have     the stamina to even reach the finish line. [04:04] (Flashback) Teshima     One of us will drop out of the race and     take one of our opponents down with him. [04:07] (Flashback) Teshima     That will be our first     attack in the mountains. [04:10] Sakamichi     Drop out... [04:11] (Flashback) Teshima     The only person who can lure Manami     and take him down is you, Onoda. [04:20] (Flashback) Teshima     Tomorrow, if what I'm expecting happens...

[04:42] Imaizumi     Yes, sir. [04:42] Teshima     I can't be the only one not     pulling when I'm making the [04:46] Teshima     second-years pull and asked     Onoda drop out of the race. [04:49] Teshima     Show yourselves, Hakone Academy. [04:51] Teshima     Let me see you around this corner. [04:55] Teshima     Show yourselves, Hakone Academy! [05:05] Teshima     I see them.

[05:33] Teshima     I'll pull at full speed. [05:36] Teshima     I'm sorry. [05:37] Teshima     After that, it'll be up to you     three to reach the finish line.

SIGN    Tadokoro Bread [05:49] Makishima     At 1,700 meters, it's cool     even during the summer. [05:54] Kinjou     Yeah. [05:55] Makishima     By the way, Kinjou... [05:57] Makishima     You think Teshima Junta, the man     you appointed Captain of Sohoku, [06:02] Makishima     will make it up here? [06:07] Makishima     Through the hot spring town of Kusatsu and [06:09] Makishima     the endlessly zig-zagging road,      all the way up here... [06:16] Kinjou     Will Teshima make it, huh? [06:18] Tadokoro     He will. [06:20] Tadokoro     I trained Teshima and Aoyagi. [06:23] Tadokoro     They've got more guts than anyone. [06:29] Tadokoro     That's what I hope, anyway. [06:32] Tadokoro     It'll probably be tough, though. [06:35] Makishima     Yeah. [06:36] Tadokoro     He's got guts, but his legs are average. [06:40] Kinjou     Unfortunately, Tadokoro's right. [06:43] Makishima     You need something exceptional     to survive at the Inter-High, [06:48] Makishima     and Teshima lacks that. [06:50] Makishima     Then why'd you choose Teshima to be captain [06:55] Makishima     if he's an average guy     who can't make it up here? [06:59] Makishima     I know he's injured, [07:01] Makishima     but you could've made Koga captain instead. [07:04] Makishima     He might've made it up here. [07:07] Kinjou     It's true that Teshima is weak and ordinary. [07:10] Kinjou     He often said so himself. [07:12] Kinjou     "I'm at the bottom. I'm a low-level player." [07:17] Kinjou     But Teshima continued     working hard regardless. [07:20] Kinjou     He used every minute and     every second carefully [07:23] Kinjou     and struggled to climb higher many times. [07:26] Kinjou     Last year, by reeling in a thin     thread of hope, Sohoku won. [07:31] Kinjou     We reached the top. [07:34] Kinjou     But those who achieve the     highest result in competition [07:38] Kinjou     always pay for it in the form of stagnation. [07:43] Kinjou     The satisfaction of reaching the highest     level diffuses the winner's tension. [07:48] Kinjou     He becomes weak and uncertain     about which way to proceed. [07:52] Kinjou     Sohoku won. What the new generation     needs now more than anything else [07:57] Kinjou     is the strength to push even farther. [08:02] Kinjou     The mental strength to keep putting [08:04] Kinjou     one foot in front of the other     no matter the circumstances. [08:07] Kinjou     A powerful heart that never     loses sight of its goals. [08:10] Kinjou     And he had that in spades. [08:13] Kinjou     That's why I chose him. [08:15] Kinjou     There are sights that can     only be seen from the bottom. [08:19] Kinjou     The hunger to break through stalemates     and shatter preconceptions. [08:25] Makishima     Yeah. [08:26] Kinjou     And the efforts of an ordinary man [08:29] Kinjou     become a vibration that resonates     through the other players. [08:33] Kinjou     It becomes the strength     that pushes them forward. [08:38] Makishima     Kinjou, wouldn't that be the     special something you mentioned [08:42] Makishima     that everyone needs to     survive until this point? [08:52] Teshima     Come on, body. Don't start screaming now. [08:57] Teshima     Fight, Junta. [08:58] Teshima     This is your last Inter-High! [09:02] Imaizumi     We're catching up to Hakone Academy. [09:04] Sakamichi     Teshima-san... [09:07] Naruko     Hey, what'd you mean when you     said the rest is up to us? [09:11] Naruko     It'd be better for us     to take turns pulling— [09:13] Teshima     Rest for now. You'll need your strength. [09:17] Teshima     That's an order. [09:18] Teshima     Naruko, Imaizumi... [09:21] Teshima     Our opponents have an advantage     from Izumida pulling. [09:25] Teshima     If our whole team is     exhausted when we catch up, [09:28] Teshima     we'll be beaten by an immediate attack. [09:30] Teshima     One of us has to pull for the team. [09:34] Teshima     And it has to be me. [09:37] Teshima     So, heart, keep on pumping until then. [09:52] Yuuto     What's with this guy? [09:59] Imaizumi     Incredible. He's... [10:02] Naruko     Crap. What is this? [10:04] Naruko     My hands are startin' to shake. [10:06] Sakamichi     I can feel Teshima-san's     passionate vibrations [10:10] Sakamichi     from his determination to     move forward no matter what. [10:13] Yuuto     Kuroda-san, I'm not sure what's going on,      but they've nearly caught up. [10:18] Kuroda     Yuuto, the two of us will pull together. [10:21] Yuuto     Yes, sir. [10:23] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan, can I make     just one selfish demand? [10:28] Ashikiba     Let me pull. [10:29] Kuroda     Takuto... [10:31] Ashikiba     I was trying to stay calm, but after     seeing Jun-chan ride like that, [10:36] Ashikiba     I can't contain it anymore. [10:41] Ashikiba     Let's race, Jun-chan. [10:43] Teshima     Shikiba... [10:45] Ashikiba     Your vibrations are reaching me. [10:48] Ashikiba     The classical music has already     begun playing in my head. [10:53] Ashikiba     It's cliché, but it's the Ninth. [10:55] Imaizumi     Ashikiba-san... [10:57] Naruko     ...stood up! [10:58] Sakamichi     He's moving up! [11:00] Teshima     He's three meters ahead. [11:03] Teshima     Is he challenging me to a race? [11:05] Teshima     Seriously? [11:07] Teshima     I'm trying to complete     my last job for the team [11:11] Teshima     by bringing them next to Hakone Academy. [11:17] Ashikiba     That's it, Jun-chan! [11:19] Ashikiba     That's the vibration! [11:20] Ashikiba     Let's race! [11:22] Teshima     What situation do you see that makes      you say that, Ashikiba? [11:26] Imaizumi     Situation? [11:28] Imaizumi     We're currently trying to     catch up to Hakone Academy. [11:32] Imaizumi     Things are going as we expected. [11:33] Imaizumi     The one difference is that their ace,     Ashikiba-san, is trying to pull ahead. [11:39] Imaizumi     What will Hakone Academy do? [11:41] Imaizumi     They probably weren't expecting     Ashikiba-san to jump ahead here. [11:46] Imaizumi     If their ace leaves their team now, [11:49] Imaizumi     the race after this point     will change dramatically. [11:52] Imaizumi     And this situation was brought about by him. [11:56] Imaizumi     Which means... [12:03] Teshima     What are you doing, Imaizumi? [12:05] Imaizumi     Do you still have the will     and strength left to fight? [12:08] Teshima     What? [12:09] Imaizumi     Conserve your strength in the     back as much as possible. [12:12] Imaizumi     And prepare yourself for the     biggest moment of this Inter-High. [12:17] Teshima     Prepare myself? [12:18] Imaizumi     Hakone Academy is attacking. [12:21] Teshima     They're attacking first? [12:24] Naruko     I agree with hotshot. [12:26] Teshima     You, too? [12:28] Naruko     They're comin'. It's gonna be a strong one. [12:32] Teshima     Could it be? [12:34] Teshima     Now? [12:37] Teshima     They're sending their ace, Ashikiba, now? [12:43] Imaizumi     You're the one who created     this situation, Teshima-san. [12:48] Imaizumi     Your self-sacrifice moved everyone around you,      including Hakone Academy's ace. [12:55] Teshima     I did? [12:57] Sakamichi     Sometimes it's hardest to notice     when you're the one doing it. [13:04] Imaizumi     You're the only one who     can stop Ashikiba-san now. [13:07] Teshima     *I'll *stop him? [13:10] Sakamichi     Please. [13:11] Naruko     We're countin' on you. [13:13] Imaizumi     Go. [13:14] All     Sohoku captain and climber, Teshima Junta! [13:21] Teshima     They're making crazy demands. [13:23] Teshima     This can't be happening.     Shikiba, I'm getting to race against you? [13:29] Teshima     Bicycle racing is fantastic. [13:32] Teshima     We're at the front of the Inter-High. [13:36] Ashikiba     Jun-chan! [13:37] Teshima     Shikiba! [13:38] Ashikiba     You came! Oh, you came. I'm so happy. [13:42] Ashikiba     Let's race! [13:44] Teshima     My third-year and final Inter-High [13:46] Teshima     is shaping up to be the most difficult     last time I'll ever face. [13:50] Teshima     Yeah, let's do it. I'm ready. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [14:02] Fan A     The front is here! [14:04] Fan B     From Hakone Academy,     it's the first day's winner, [14:06] Fan B     wearing the red mountain tags      from the second day. [14:09] Fan B     He's the unstoppable and     towering ace, Ashikiba Takuto. [14:12] Fan C     Racing against him is Sohoku's #5     and captain, Teshima Junta, a climber. [14:18] Fan A     Teshima's racing for Sohoku, huh? [14:20] Fan B     Teshima lacks an impressive record, [14:24] Fan B     but he narrowly lost the     first day's mountain battle. [14:28] Fan C     An uncrowned man,     someone who's never won a title, [14:32] Fan C     is going to beat Hakone Academy's ace. [14:34] Fan C     Maybe that's their plan for sending #5. [14:38] Ashikiba     I'm glad you came. [14:41] Ashikiba     How do you feel right now, Jun-chan? [14:45] Ashikiba     As for me... [14:47] Ashikiba     I... [14:51] Ashikiba     I feel amazing! [14:53] Teshima     Metronome Dancing! [14:55] Teshima     You're doing that already? Hold on. [14:58] Teshima     Wait, Shikiba! [15:01] Teshima     My legs feel so heavy... [15:04] Teshima     But move! [15:08] Ashikiba     That's it. This is so thrilling. [15:12] Ashikiba     Let's go again, Jun-chan. [15:14] Teshima     Seriously? [15:16] Teshima     My heart's about to stop. [15:18] Teshima     Take a break, Shikiba. [15:27] Kuroda     What's wrong, Sohoku? Are you giving up     the race because things have gotten tough? [15:32] Kuroda     I'm surprised you sent Teshima. [15:35] Kuroda     Did his miraculous second-place     finish at Irohazaka on the first day [15:38] Kuroda     make you hope for more? [15:39] Kuroda     But don't they call it a miracle     because it'll never happen again? [15:45] Kuroda     From here, it's roughly     15 kilometers to the finish line. [15:48] Kuroda     If one of the two guys who left can't keep up,      the other will take the finish line. [15:55] Kuroda     The race will end without us doing our jobs. [15:59] Imaizumi     We sent Teshima-san so that wouldn't happen. [16:04] Kuroda     Sorry, but Teshima doesn't have     the strength to stop our Ashikiba. [16:09] Imaizumi     I doubt he does. [16:12] Imaizumi     But he'll stop him. [16:14] Kuroda     Is that a riddle? How's he going to stop him? [16:18] Kuroda     I'm saying Teshima doesn't stand a chance. [16:21] Sakamichi     Excuse me. [16:22] Kuroda     What? [16:24] Sakamichi     Um, well... [16:26] Sakamichi     The reason we sent Teshima-san     is because he's... very, uh... [16:33] Sakamichi     He's very hard-working. [16:34] Kuroda     Hard-working? [16:37] Kuroda     I was wondering what you'd say. [16:39] Kuroda     You think hard work and effort     are enough to succeed? [16:42] Kuroda     Do you, Onoda-kun? [16:44] Sakamichi     Um, but Teshima-san has worked     really hard this past year. [16:52] Sakamichi     He tirelessly built up his     strength little by little. [16:56] Sakamichi     I thought it was amazing. [17:00] Sakamichi     Couldn't you call the ability to     gradually build up your efforts talent? [17:08] Teshima     Are you laughing at me for     jumping ahead, Kuroda? [17:12] Teshima     I'm sure you are. [17:14] Teshima     Until a moment ago, I was pulling     my team at full strength, [17:18] Teshima     with the intention of dropping out. [17:21] Teshima     But... [17:25] Teshima     an unexpected road opened in front of me. [17:29] Teshima     Just as I was about to     collapse from exhaustion... [17:32] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Do you still have the will     and strength left to fight? [17:36] Teshima     For a moment, I thought,     "Why now, when I'm exhausted?" [17:41] Teshima     "I would've gladly rushed ahead     if it weren't right now." [17:45] Teshima     But I turned my pedals     because it happened now. [17:50] Teshima     Only when you've pushed yourself to     the limit and steeled your resolve [17:56] Teshima     does the next door open. [17:59] Teshima     So move forward     without hesitation, Teshima Junta. [18:03] Teshima     Wait, Shikiba! [18:04] Teshima     Let's ride together for a little longer. [18:07] Ashikiba     Jun-chan! Incredible! You truly are amazing. [18:11] Teshima     Wouldn't want to waste the opportunity. [18:13] Teshima     Shikiba, I hadn't answered      your question yet... SIGN    Certain [18:17] Teshima     about how I feel. [18:19] Teshima     I should be exhausted, so I wonder why... [18:22] Teshima     It's strange.

[18:49] Announcer     Teshima has fallen behind slightly. [18:51] Masuda     Teshima? From class four? [18:55] Higashido     Yeah, that's him. [18:56] Announcer     But Teshima is hanging in there. [18:56] Masuda     You're friends with him, right, Higashido? [18:59] Masuda     Didn't you say you were going     to Tochigi the other day? [19:01] Higashido     Yeah. [19:03] Higashido     I spoke with him briefly     before the race started. [19:06] Announcer     Teshima is sticking behind     Hakone Academy's number 11. [19:07] Higashido     Wow, Teshima. You're playing     a big part at the Inter-High, [19:12] Higashido     where the country's best riders gather. [19:14] Higashido     It makes me shiver. [19:16] Announcer     Meanwhile, Hakone Academy     has strength to spare. [19:17] Higashido     You've seized an opportunity. [19:19] Announcer     He's riding so effortlessly. [19:20] Higashido     I'll say it again. [19:21] Announcer     All 202 centimeters of     #11 Ashikiba are swaying. [19:22] Higashido     You're the star of Minami Middle School. [19:26] Higashido     Ashikiba? [19:27] Girl B     Who? [19:29] Higashido     Ashikiba... [19:30] Higashido     He was so slow and nice in middle school. [19:35] Higashido     Are Shikiba and Teshima battling each other? [19:39] Higashido     Those two from Minami Middle School are     taking each other on at the great Inter-High? [19:44] Higashido     Amazing. [19:46] Higashido     You can do it. [19:47] Higashido     Good luck, both of you! [19:55] Teshima     This is rough. I'm struggling. [19:57] Teshima     But I feel strangely calm. [20:01] Teshima     This is a huge race. [20:03] Teshima     I'm shouldering a heavy     responsibility for my team. [20:06] Teshima     It's the final mountains of the     third day of the Inter-High. [20:10] Teshima     But my body is responding. [20:12] Teshima     The wavelength feels good. [20:13] Teshima     It's probably because I'm     racing against you, Shikiba. [20:18] Teshima     Our rhythms are synced. [20:23] Ashikiba     I feel the same way, Jun-chan. [20:27] Teshima     What? [20:31] Ashikiba     I can feel it. [20:33] Ashikiba     Sorry. My senses are keen right now. [20:41] Teshima     He's no ordinary man after all. [20:44] Teshima     Just making eye contact with     him gives me pins and needles. [20:48] Ashikiba     I'm strong when I get like this. [20:51] Teshima     He unleashed his senses. [20:53] Teshima     He was never a logical rider.     He rides based on feel. [20:58] Teshima     People generally tease him for     being air-headed and not listening, [21:02] Teshima     but that's just because his     interest is out of alignment. [21:06] Teshima     Once he's set his sights on something     and his senses are tuned in, [21:09] Teshima     he performs unbelievably well. [21:13] Teshima     He's been this way since middle school. [21:16] Teshima     He was strong once he got going. [21:19] Teshima     He's not lying. [21:20] Teshima     He's probably fairly strong right now. [21:25] Teshima     Shall we race for real? [21:28] Ashikiba     Isn't that why you came? [21:31] Ashikiba     Let's do it for real. [21:33] Ashikiba     You're strong. I want to try it. [21:36] Teshima     Don't overestimate me. [21:38] Teshima     I lost to you last year at Minegayama. [21:42] Teshima     Everyone says I've got average legs. [21:47] Teshima     But it hasn't made me spineless. [21:49] Teshima     I am who I am now knowing that. [21:53] Teshima     I want to believe the path     I've traveled and the goals [21:57] Teshima     I've worked toward weren't wrong. [21:59] Teshima     So I want to prove that by     fighting and beating you. [22:05] Teshima     What's an ordinary climber, [22:06] Teshima     a #5 like me doing picking a      fight with Hakone Academy's ace? [22:11] Teshima     I know I wouldn't be able     to contain my laughter [22:14] Teshima     if I calmed down and thought about it. [22:16] Teshima     But we stand in the same ring. [22:19] Teshima     I'm on this side of the     road at the Inter-High. [22:22] Teshima     I have the right. [22:24] Teshima     From another perspective,     this is an opportunity. [22:27] Teshima     For the rest of my life, [22:30] Teshima     I'll probably never have     another opportunity to ride [22:32] Teshima     at the front of a big race with you. [22:35] Teshima     I consider this a miracle. [22:37] Teshima     So I'm riding this miracle     all the way to the end. [22:41] Teshima     After all, miracles hardly ever happen,     no matter how hard you wish for them, [22:48] Teshima     but when it rains, it pours. [22:50] Teshima     Isn't that how it works?

[05:24] (Flashback) Teshima     I can't ride 200 kilometers yet, [05:26] (Flashback) Teshima     but if I keep trying, I think     I'll be able to eventually. [05:29] (Flashback) Teshima     So... [05:30] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Huh? [05:32] (Flashback) Teshima     Do you wanna try road racing with me? [05:37] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Wow, what a great sound. [05:40] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It really is like an instrument. [05:43] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Isn't this fun, Jun-chan? [05:45] (Flashback) Teshima     Yeah, Shikiba. [05:48] Teshima     And that's how we began riding bikes. [05:52] Teshima     At first, Shikiba couldn't keep up,     but before long he became a competent rider. [05:58] Teshima     We entered middle school and joined     the bicycle racing club together. SIGN    Bicycle     Racing     Club [06:03] (Flashback) Senpai A     Pedal hard, Shikiba. [06:04] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Okay. [06:06] (Flashback) Senpai B     AshiTeshi are pretty good for first-years. [06:09] (Flashback) Senpai C     AshiTeshi? [06:10] (Flashback) Senpai B     They're inseparable, you know? So... [06:14] (Flashback) Senpai B     Ashikiba plus Teshima makes AshiTeshi. [06:17] (Flashback) Higashido     Man, they're fast. [06:19] (Flashback) Senpai B     Don't be a wimp. [06:21] (Flashback) Senpai A     Keep working at it, Higashido. [06:23] (Flashback) Senpai A     You're a first-year, too. [06:26] (Flashback) Higashido     Yes, sir. I'll strive to     achieve AshiTeshiHiga. [06:30] (Flashback) Both     That sounds awful. [06:33] Teshima     We were all right in practice,     but in races, we got buried. [06:41] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Those three were really fast. [06:44] (Flashback) Teshima     You dummy, we let them get away from us. [06:46] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Get away? [06:47] (Flashback) Teshima     They're gonna reach the     finish line before us. [06:49] (Flashback) Teshima     We had to keep up with those three. [06:52] (Flashback) Teshima     They planned this attack and were quietly     waiting for an opportunity. Damn it. SIGN    16 Ashikiba Takuto      17 Suda Naoya      18 Teshima Junta [06:58] Teshima     We were failing to achieve anything. [07:04] (Flashback) Teshima     We still haven't gotten any chances yet. [07:08] (Flashback) Teshima     I placed 18th in that last race. [07:11] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I was 16th. [07:13] (Flashback) Teshima     That's not much different. [07:15] (Flashback) Teshima     Road races are all about winning. [07:19] (Flashback) Teshima     To achieve that, you need to try     countless times, fail countless times, [07:22] (Flashback) Teshima     and seize opportunities that are     as difficult as threading a needle. [07:26] (Flashback) Teshima     That's what the upperclassmen said. [07:28] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Opportunities? [07:30] (Flashback) Teshima     Maybe you just need to develop a feel for it. [07:33] (Flashback) Teshima     A feel for riding a bike. [07:35] (Flashback) Teshima     I have no idea what I'm     supposed to be seeing. [07:39] (Flashback) Teshima     All I ever get out of racing is regret     and things I could've done better. [07:42] (Flashback) Ashikiba     They're fun for me, [07:44] (Flashback) Ashikiba     because I get to ride with you. [07:48] (Flashback) Teshima     I appreciate that, but I feel conflicted. [07:51] (Flashback) Ashikiba     There's something else I enjoy about racing. [07:56] (Flashback) Ashikiba     There's something I see when     I start having fun during races. [08:00] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I start to see a path that seems like it     would lead me to the front if I did this, [08:04] (Flashback) Ashikiba     that, and the other thing. [08:05] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But force myself to hold back. [08:09] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I mean, if I followed it,     I'd be separated from you. [08:16] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I race because I want to ride with you. [08:21] Teshima     What path? Is that what it means     to have a talent for riding bikes? [08:25] Teshima     Is this guy actually way closer [08:28] Teshima     to finding his opportunity than I am? [08:32] (Flashback) Teshima     Shikiba! [08:33] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Huh? [08:34] (Flashback) Teshima     You... [08:37] Teshima     "You might have an incredible latent talent." [08:41] Teshima     I couldn't come out and say those words then. [08:45] Teshima     Damn, damn. [08:47] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You're so funny, Jun-chan. You're powerful. [08:52] (Flashback) Teshima     I lost today's race because I'm not powerful. [08:55] (Flashback) Ashikiba     No, I can feel it in my heart.     You're emotionally powerful. [08:59] (Flashback) Teshima     Huh? [09:00] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm having so much fun right now. [09:03] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm glad I came to Chiba. [09:09] Teshima     Ashikiba had apparently moved several     times due to his parents' jobs. [09:15] Teshima     And each time, he left places he'd grown     accustomed to behind. [09:21] Teshima     I wonder how it feels to move. [09:26] Teshima     Is it a lonely experience, or is     it more complicated than that? [09:31] (Flashback) Teshima     Hey, Shikiba. Have you been     thinking about high school? [09:35] (Flashback) Teshima     In Chiba— [09:35] Ashikiba     I don't know if I'll still     be in Chiba by high school. [09:40] Teshima     "The best schools in Chiba for bicycle racing are     Makuhari Keiyo, Chiba Sohoku," [09:44] Teshima     "and Kashiwa Higashi." [09:46] Teshima     I decided not to say that after all. [09:50] Teshima     Oh, right. Shikiba, you... [09:54] Teshima     Your time is limited. [09:57] Teshima     You practice road racing     and piano knowing that. [10:01] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Huh? What's the matter, Jun-chan? [10:05] (Flashback) Teshima     I love bicycles. [10:07] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Huh? [10:08] (Flashback) Teshima     So I want you to learn to     love them even more, too. [10:11] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm already having plenty of fun. [10:13] (Flashback) Teshima     That's not what I meant. [10:16] (Flashback) Teshima     I don't know how to explain it. [10:22] Teshima     I want him to achieve something     that will make him glad [10:27] Teshima     he decided to take up bicycle racing.

[11:06] Teshima     I want you to be glad you chose to     ride bikes with your limited time. [11:14] Teshima     Once you stand on the     winner's podium, I'm sure... [11:19] Teshima     you'll come to love bikes even more, too. [11:23] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Jun-chan, you seem even     more hyped up than usual. [11:26] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I can feel your competitive spirit. [11:30] (Flashback) Teshima     I told you, today you're going     to be the King of the Mountains. [11:34] (Flashback) Teshima     Leave it to me. I'll make sure you win it. [11:36] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I told you, that's not possible. [11:39] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Let's ride to have fun, like we always do. [11:44] (Flashback) Teshima     Listen to me, Shikiba. [11:46] (Flashback) Teshima     In road races, most everyone     is riding for the finish line. [11:50] (Flashback) Teshima     In a hill climb, since the     finish line is at the peak, [11:54] (Flashback) Teshima     that's what everyone's going for. [11:55] (Flashback) Teshima     There's a lot of competition. [11:57] (Flashback) Teshima     But the mountain result line     is on the middle of the course. [12:02] (Flashback) Teshima     Making an attempt on the mountain     result line would exhaust them, [12:05] (Flashback) Teshima     so guys aiming for the finish     line won't make a move. [12:08] (Flashback) Teshima     There's less competition.     Not many guys are going for it. [12:11] (Flashback) Teshima     Even you could be the King of the     Mountains if you work hard enough. [12:17] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Really? I see, it's because     there's less competition. [12:21] (Flashback) Ashikiba     You're so smart, Jun-chan. [12:23] (Flashback) Teshima     Hey, don't look at me like this is the     first time you're hearing about it. [12:30] (Flashback) Rider A     We've entered the climb.

[13:37] (Flashback) Teshima     What are you doing? This is pointless. [13:40] (Flashback) Teshima     I even told you when to go     and what our goal was today. [13:44] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I turned you down! [13:47] (Flashback) Ashikiba     That's not possible. [13:51] (Flashback) Ashikiba     The view was nice. [13:53] (Flashback) Ashikiba     It was sunny, the air was dry,      and we were up high. [13:58] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Is it really so wrong to want to show     someone else when you see a beautiful view? [14:05] (Flashback) Teshima     There's a time and place for that. [14:09] (Flashback) Teshima     Damn it. What was all my effort for? [14:14] (Flashback) Teshima     Forget it. Let's get ready to go home. [14:21] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm over it, too.

[14:39] (Flashback) Higashido     You should know my name     by now. It's Higashido. [14:42] (Flashback) Higashido     My nickname is Higashimaru.

No, uh... [15:10] (Flashback) Ashikiba     How did you know? [15:12] (Flashback) Higashido     Teshima said that might be the case.

SIGN    Chiba Cycling Festival [15:23] Higashido     Even after the race started, [15:24] Higashido     he waited there at the starting line     by himself like he was half-asleep. [15:29] Ashikiba     What? [15:33] Ashikiba     But... [15:35] Ashikiba     Being grabbed and screamed at would     make anyone want to quit riding. [15:41] Higashido     Have you thought about why Teshima     grabbed you by the collar? [15:46] Higashido     He told me a while ago on     the way home after practice. [15:50] (Flashback) Higashido     You're gonna make Ashikiba     the King of the Mountains? [15:52] (Flashback) Teshima     It's a good idea, right? [15:54] (Flashback) Teshima     He's a pretty good climber     once he gets going. [15:58] (Flashback) Higashido     Well, yeah, but... [16:00] (Flashback) Teshima     I'll have to work hard, too. [16:02] (Flashback) Higashido     You? [16:04] (Flashback) Teshima     Someone needs to take Shikiba     to the top of the mountain. [16:07] (Flashback) Teshima     Winning requires sacrifice. [16:12] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Sacrifice... [16:14] (Flashback) Higashido     That's right. After all,     road racing is a team sport. [16:18] (Flashback) Higashido     When multiple opponents come at you,     you can't fight them off alone. [16:21] (Flashback) Higashido     You need someone to set things up for you. [16:25] (Flashback) Higashido     I can't do it. [16:28] (Flashback) Higashido     But maybe he's the kind of guy [16:30] (Flashback) Higashido     who gets excited about working     hard for someone else's sake. [16:34] (Flashback) Higashido     Do you know where Teshima is today? [16:38] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Huh? [16:40] (Flashback) Higashido     He needs to be able to climb, too,      if he's going to set you up. [16:44] (Flashback) Higashido     He has to practice climbing. [16:46] (Flashback) Higashido     But on normal days, his schedule's     full with team practice. [16:50] (Flashback) Higashido     So he told me... [16:54] (Flashback) Higashido     On rainy days when the team doesn't practice,      he practices climbing alone. [17:00] (Flashback) Teshima     It's so cold. The water's seeped     all the way into my gloves. [17:05] (Flashback) Teshima     What am I doing? [17:09] (Flashback) Teshima     I can't believe I'm practicing for     a guy who's about to quit the team. [17:13] (Flashback) Teshima     I must be stupid. [17:14] (Flashback) Higashido     He trained pretty hard for that race, too. [17:19] (Flashback) Higashido     He told me not to tell you because     it'd put pressure on you, though.

[18:34] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm gonna show you the ultimate sight. [18:38] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Is there a observation platform with     a view of the sea or something? [18:40] (Flashback) Teshima     That's not what I meant... [18:44] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Jun-chan was trying to sacrifice himself [18:47] (Flashback) Ashikiba     to show me the view from the winner's podium. [18:53] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But I heedlessly enjoyed the     view of the mountains that day. [18:57] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I made myself the victim     and skipped practice alone.

[02:10] Teshima     Don't look so surprised.     Of course I'll catch up to you! [02:14] Teshima     I've experienced plenty of hardship, too. [02:17] Teshima     I even desperately developed     my own ultimate technique. [02:22] Teshima     Ow, my palm cramped. [02:26] Teshima     I'm not fast. [02:28] Teshima     I'm not cool, either. [02:30] Teshima     But my technique is fitting for me. [02:33] Teshima     I'm sure you've heard the     same thing from Manami. [02:36] Teshima     I slowly and steadily     advance towards my ideals. [02:43] Teshima     I push myself as hard as possible. [02:45] Teshima     That's my ultimate technique.

[03:15] Ashikiba     Both Jun-chan and I are     riding as hard as we can. [03:19] Ashikiba     It's incredible. [03:23] Ashikiba     Why am I recalling the two of us     in the music room that day now? [03:31] Ashikiba     We're reverberating and     energizing each other. [03:36] Ashikiba     Even though I'm sweating and I'm straining     my body, I feel like I could go anywhere. [03:42] Teshima     What is this? It's crazy.

[06:37] Fan     If he's got the strength left to     do it, then he has an advantage. [06:41] Fan     But it's a close battle. It's probably      tough on them physically.

[09:14] Ashikiba     I've always watched Jun-chan from behind. [09:18] Ashikiba     You really are incredible, Jun-chan. [09:21] Ashikiba     After this, I'll probably get to see [09:23] Ashikiba     the moment Jun-chan's talent blooms. [09:34] Teshima     Amazing. This pressure from     the spectators is mesmerizing. [09:41] Teshima     Come to think of it, Naruko mentioned     something after last year's Inter-High. [09:45] Teshima     He said the spectators were     crazy on the third day. [09:51] Teshima     The intensity of their cheers were on     another level from the first and second days, [09:56] Teshima     especially in the final mountains.

If I'm prepared     to believe everything, [11:35] Teshima     does that mean my pace has increased? [11:38] Teshima     Wait a minute. Shikiba, if you... [11:41] Teshima     That would mean...

[13:03] Makishima     "I'm sorry." [13:07] Kinjou     Makishima... [13:08] Makishima     You've got nothing to be sorry for.

[03:28] (Flashback) Mom     I'm sorry. [03:29] (Flashback) Mom     I know it's last minute again,     but yesterday Dad's company reassigned him. [03:35] (Flashback) Mom     We're moving to Kanagawa     at the end of the year. [03:38] Ashikiba     What? [03:39] (Flashback) Mom     I'm sorry. I know you have exams. [03:42] (Flashback) Mom     I need to start gathering applications     for high schools in Kanagawa. [03:46] Ashikiba     What? [03:47] (Flashback) Mom     We'll be spending New Year's there. [03:52] Ashikiba     What? [03:55] (Flashback) Tsubasa     This is so funny! [03:56] Ashikiba     What? [04:02] Ashikiba     What? [04:07] Ashikiba     What? [04:14] Ashikiba     What? [04:17] Ashikiba     Why? But what about New Year's? [04:25] (Flashback) Teshima     Have you heard Hiraken's new song? [04:27] (Flashback) Friend     Yeah.

[05:07] (Flashback) Teshima     What's gotten into you?     We didn't graduate today. [05:10] (Flashback) Teshima     Are you saying goodbye forever?     We still have the third semester. [05:14] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm sorry I couldn't do anything for you. [05:19] (Flashback) Teshima     Huh? [05:20] (Flashback) Ashikiba     But you're always doing things for me. [05:23] (Flashback) Teshima     What are you talking about? [05:26] (Flashback) Teshima     You're an incredible guy.     Don't worry about it. [05:29] (Flashback) Teshima     Be more confident in yourself. [05:33] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Before it's over, let's shake hands. [05:36] (Flashback) Teshima     What? Over? [05:38] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Humor me. [05:45] (Flashback) Teshima     Is this some kind of magic spell? [05:48] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Yeah. [05:50] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Bye. [05:51] (Flashback) Teshima     Huh? H-Hey! [05:57] Ashikiba     I didn't tell Jun-chan I was moving because [06:00] Ashikiba     I didn't want to give     him more to worry about. [06:03] Ashikiba     I thought I was being strong. [06:07] Ashikiba     Every time I moved, I said so many goodbyes. [06:11] Ashikiba     I'd decided after the last time that     I wouldn't cry when I said goodbye anymore, [06:15] Ashikiba     because it made me sad. [06:18] Ashikiba     But this time... [06:21] Ashikiba     My tears kept falling and wouldn't stop. [06:26] Ashikiba     All my memories until now     kept playing in my head. [06:30] Ashikiba     No matter how much I wiped them away,     the tears kept coming. SIGN    Doremi Moving Company [06:41] (Flashback) Ashikiba     That's Hakone, huh? [06:44] Ashikiba     After we moved to Kanagawa, I realized     I'd lost the team's phone tree, SIGN    Minami Middle School Bicycle Racing Club Phone Tree [06:50] Ashikiba     and that I didn't have Jun-chan's phone number,      since we were never in the same class. [06:57] Ashikiba     I couldn't act on any of my plans to call him      when I got there or write him letters. [07:06] Ashikiba     What am I doing? [07:14] Ashikiba     My bicycle... [07:16] Ashikiba     Jun-chan said he was quitting, but if... [07:21] Ashikiba     If he keeps riding, then someday... [07:28] Ashikiba     Somewhere, I might get to see Jun-chan again. [07:34] Ashikiba     I chose Hakone Academy for my high     school and joined the bicycle club. SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club [07:45] Ashikiba     After my struggles and screwing up, [07:48] Ashikiba     in the fall of my second year, when I'd     been banned from racing indefinitely... [07:53] (Flashback) Shinkai     Do you want to try racing with Teshima-kun? [07:56] (Flashback) Ashikiba     What? [07:58] Ashikiba     I was unexpectedly offered a chance to race. SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club [08:07] Ashikiba     A race. I haven't been     in a race in forever... [08:11] Ashikiba     Not only that, but I'll be     wearing a Hakone Academy jersey. [08:16] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Hey, Ashikiba. [08:19] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Kaneyan. [08:20] (Flashback) Kaneyan     They say your ban was lifted. [08:23] (Flashback) Kaneyan     I heard the news.     You're going to race, right? [08:25] (Flashback) Ashikiba     That's right. [08:27] (Flashback) Kaneyan     That's great. You've been practicing so hard. [08:30] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Thanks, but it's a heavy responsibility,     since I'll be wearing a jersey. [08:36] (Flashback) Kaneyan     I'm sure you can do it now. [08:39] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Hold your head high when you get there. [08:43] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Do you have to be up early tomorrow? [08:45] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Yeah. I'm taking the first     train to Minegayama in Chiba. SIGN    Minegayama Hill Climb Race [08:52] Ashikiba     After two years of no contact with Jun-chan, [08:56] Ashikiba     I participated in the Minegayama     Hill Climb Race held in Chiba. [09:02] Ashikiba     I bore a heavy responsibility,     but my heart was leaping... [09:09] Ashikiba     Because Jun-chan's name was     on the list of participants. [09:14] Ashikiba     He's somewhere up ahead on this course. [09:19] Ashikiba     I searched for him as soon as I     arrived and only saw him from behind. [09:25] Ashikiba     It brought back memories. [09:27] Ashikiba     He's grown a little. He's taller now. [09:32] Ashikiba     I wonder if he'll be angry that     I couldn't get in touch for two years. [09:38] Ashikiba     That I moved without saying anything. [09:42] Ashikiba     It's okay if he's mad. [09:44] Ashikiba     It's okay if he never     wants to be friends again. [09:46] Ashikiba     I actually kind of think today might be fate. [09:52] Ashikiba     Jun-chan said he'd quit riding,     and I moved away. [09:57] Ashikiba     But we're finally getting to meet     again on Minegayama here in Chiba, [10:02] Ashikiba     where we used to ride all the time. [10:04] Ashikiba     There he is. He's on his bike. [10:07] Ashikiba     He's racing. Jun-chan! [10:11] (Flashback) Teshima     Have you been well? [10:14] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Yeah. [10:16] (Flashback) Teshima     Are you still playing the piano? [10:22] (Flashback) Ashikiba     Sometimes. [10:24] (Flashback) Ashikiba     I'm glad you haven't quit racing. [10:29] (Flashback) Teshima     I felt like riding again. [10:33] Ashikiba     Jun-chan wasn't angry. [10:36] Ashikiba     He spoke kindly to me, just like      he did in middle school, [10:39] Ashikiba     as though picking up where we left off. [10:42] Ashikiba     It felt like such a long and nostalgic time. [10:48] Ashikiba     And at the same time, I understood... [10:51] (Flashback) Teshima     I'm Sohoku's captain now, which means I have     to fight against you and Hakone Academy. [11:01] (Flashback) Ashikiba     And I'm Hakone Academy's next ace, so... [11:08] Ashikiba     ...that we were in different places,     and there was a wall between us. [11:18] Fan A     They're both racing up the     hill as fast as they can! [11:20] Fan B     Only 80 meters left to the     third day's mountain line! [11:24] Ashikiba     So I distanced myself from Jun-chan. [11:28] Ashikiba     I suppressed the emotions that     came welling up inside me. [11:31] Ashikiba     Because I thought we couldn't have     fun together the way we used to. [11:37] Ashikiba     If we hadn't been wearing     jerseys when we met again, [11:40] Ashikiba     I think I would've told Jun-chan right away [11:45] Ashikiba     about the two things that     had been on my mind. [11:48] Ashikiba     That I moved away without saying anything. [11:52] Ashikiba     That I had a mountain of things [11:54] Ashikiba     I wanted to ask him about if I'd     had his contact information. [11:59] Ashikiba     But you know, Jun-chan,     I feel so strange right now. [12:03] Ashikiba     I feel like I've already told you about     the things I wanted your advice on. [12:08] Ashikiba     I feel like I've apologized for     moving away without saying anything. [12:13] Ashikiba     This must be the power of bicycles. [12:18] Ashikiba     Just as they brought us back together again,     I think bicycles have a mysterious power. [12:24] Ashikiba     By riding as hard as we can together, [12:27] Ashikiba     our rivalry, the burdens we carry, [12:30] Ashikiba     and all the other unnecessary things     fly past us with the scenery. [12:35] Ashikiba     The wall that should exist     between us has fallen away, too. [12:38] Ashikiba     It's like we're great friends again. [12:41] Ashikiba     Right, Jun-chan? [12:45] Fan B     50 meters left! [12:48] Teshima     Shikiba, do you remember the     Minegayama race last fall? [12:55] Teshima     When I saw your name on     the list, my hands froze. [12:59] Sugimoto     That's right. I found him. Me! I did. [13:03] Sugimoto     I know why you're so shocked.     He's from Hakone Academy, after all. [13:08] Sugimoto     If he's coming all the way from     Kangawa, then that must mean... SIGN    Ashikiba Takuto Hakone Academy (Kanagawa) [13:11] Teshima     Ashikiba Takuto... [13:14] Teshima     It must be you. [13:15] Teshima     It's you, Shikiba. [13:19] Teshima     I was overjoyed. [13:25] Teshima     I was glad that you still liked bikes, [13:27] Teshima     and you kept riding even after     you moved to Kanagawa. [13:33] Teshima     Look. SIGN    Day 3     Mountain Line [13:34] Teshima     Can you believe this? [13:36] Teshima     The two of us are currently competing for     the mountain result at the Inter-High.

[14:27] Teshima     But my brain is commanding me     to advance, to face forward. [14:32] Ashikiba     Go, go, go. [14:35] Ashikiba     My whole body's so tense, I feel     like it's all going to cramp up. [14:38] Ashikiba     Go, go, go! Raise your head! [14:42] Both     To the finish line in front us!

[17:57] Ashikiba     We won it together. [18:01] Teshima     Shikiba... [18:04] Ashikiba     You were strong today, Jun-chan. [18:07] Ashikiba     More than you were in      any moment before. [18:12] Ashikiba     We stayed neck and neck until the very end, [18:14] Ashikiba     when I thrust my bike across the line. [18:17] Ashikiba     Honestly, I thought I finished first. [18:20] Ashikiba     But you didn't stop pedaling until the end. [18:26] Ashikiba     When I saw your back wearing that yellow     jersey pass me on the left, I was amazed. [18:33] Ashikiba     I was disappointed, but at the same time,      I thought you were cool. [18:43] Teshima     I'm not that great. [18:46] Teshima     Shikiba, I... [18:47] Ashikiba     Be honest, Jun-chan. [18:51] Ashikiba     You're the one who won over the crowd, [18:53] Ashikiba     enthralled them with your riding,     and crossed that line first. [18:59] Ashikiba     When we were riding side by side, [19:01] Ashikiba     I could feel the pressure coming off     you rising every time they cheered. [19:06] Ashikiba     Turning the spectators' strength     into your own is a skill. [19:12] Ashikiba     It's something you used to     do all the time at karaoke. [19:17] Teshima     Are you saying I should let     it get to my head a little? [19:19] Ashikiba     Yes, exactly. [19:27] Teshima     All right, I won the King of the Mountains. [19:30] Teshima     I'm amazing. I won the King of     the Mountains at the Inter-High! [19:34] Teshima     I'm Teshima Junta, the genius climber! [19:39] Teshima     How was that? [19:44] Ashikiba     Great. [19:47] Teshima     I probably would've let it get to     my head like that a long time ago, [19:51] Teshima     but I've experienced a lot since then. [19:54] Teshima     I've suffered a lot, too. [19:57] Teshima     The happiness will probably come later,     but right now, all I feel is gratitude. [20:03] Teshima     For my teammates who supported me,     for my juniors who sent me off, [20:07] Teshima     for my seniors who taught me so much, and...

[22:47] Naruko     The sprinter's blood flows through     your veins, too, doesn't it? [22:52] Naruko     Looks like I'm right. [22:54] Naruko     I can tell. [22:56] Naruko     Shall we race if we meet on     some flats again somewhere? [23:03] Yuuto     Race? We could do that right here,      though it's a climb.

[03:56] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun is amazing! [04:00] Kuroda     I told Yuuto he could attack     if he saw an opening, [04:03] Kuroda     but I should've known     it wouldn't be that simple. [04:07] Manami     Wow, he really has learned to climb. [04:15] Naruko     Yuuto, you asked earlier if I had strength     to spare because I'm a second-year. [04:19] Naruko     Let me answer you now. [04:21] Naruko     Of course I don't. [04:24] Naruko     I'm here after practicin' a ton and     endurin' all kinds of experiences. [04:28] Naruko     I feel more pressure now     than I did in my first year. [04:33] Naruko     I've pushed myself right up to the limit. [04:36] Naruko     If I let my guard down even     a little, I'll suffer defeat. [04:39] Naruko     I'm obviously tryin' as hard as I can. [04:42] Naruko     But that suits me just fine.

[07:20] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, Naruko-kun,     did they say someone fell? [07:25] Imaizumi     Yeah. [07:25] Naruko     I heard it, too. [07:28] Naruko     It was probably Teshima-san. [07:32] Naruko     Knowin' him, he was probably so exhausted     from givin' everything he had [07:35] Naruko     that he could barely ride in a straight line. [07:40] Naruko     But he waited for us to     catch up and pass him. [07:45] Naruko     Then gave us a push, saw us off, [07:48] Naruko     and hung on until we were     out of sight before he fell.

[08:51] Naruko     You think you stopped me? [08:54] Yuuto     What?

[09:15] Yuuto     Naruko-san is blocking me. [09:17] Yuuto     Imaizumi-san's planning to attack     while Naruko-san acts as a wall. [09:23] Yuuto     No, that's not it. [09:25] Yuuto     He's taking Sohoku's #1, Onoda-san, with him! [09:28] Fan I     Two of Sohoku's riders     accelerated and jumped ahead! [09:32] Fan J     They're so fast!

[09:54] Yuuto     I heard you were fighting over who'd     get to be the ace on the first day. [10:00] Naruko     We've been ridin' all-out for three days. [10:03] Naruko     We've learned how the other thinks     even if we haven't gotten any closer! [10:08] Naruko     I could tell he was itchin' to do something, [10:13] Naruko     so I drew you away from     the rest of your team. [10:17] Yuuto     What? [10:21] Yuuto     He accelerated so I'd be isolated? [10:24] Yuuto     Is he saying this attack      wasn't planned at all, [10:27] Yuuto     and they executed it on the     spur of the moment? [10:32] Kuroda     They got us! [10:34] Kuroda     I thought it was a flashy attack by Naruko,      but #1 and #2 have jumped ahead! [10:39] Kuroda     We're going after them, Manami!

[14:50] Ashikiba     I won't let them get any farther ahead. [14:55] Ashikiba     Yuki-chan listened to my     request and sent me off. [15:01] Ashikiba     When he passed me earlier,     even though I lost in the mountains, [15:07] Ashikiba     he gently patted me on the back. [15:09] (Flashback) Kuroda     No regrets, Takuto?

[06:23] Kuroda     You don't have the strength left to do that. [06:27] Yuuto     So you go on ahead, Kuroda-san. [06:31] Yuuto     I'll stop these two... [06:40] Yuuto     Yeah! [06:42] Yuuto     While my legs still move! [06:45] Kuroda     Yuuto! [06:46] Midousuji     Gross! [06:47] Yuuto     I've stopped him! Move up on     the counter, Kuroda-san! [06:54] Kuroda     Yuuto! [06:56] Yuuto     Kuroda-san... [06:58] Yuuto     There's another reason I dropped back. [07:02] Yuuto     I've changed a little. [07:04] Yuuto     After riding and fighting alongside     the team for three days... [07:09] Yuuto     After watching how Ashikiba-san,     Kuroda-san, and Izumida-san rode... [07:15] Yuuto     Honestly, before the race started,     I only cared about me winning. [07:22] (Flashback) Yuuto     My team doesn't know this, but... [07:26] (Flashback) Yuuto     I came to the Inter-High to challenge you. [07:31] Yuuto     But now... [07:33] Yuuto     Now, I... [07:36] Yuuto     Now, I want Hakone Academy's jersey to win! [07:42] Yuuto     Win the race, Kuroda-san! [07:44] Kuroda     I'm already on it! [07:49] Kuroda     Thank you, Yuuto. [07:51] Midousuji     You let your teammate get ahead by     blocking the inside of a 180-degree turn. [07:56] Midousuji     A clever plan, Yuuto. [08:00] Yuuto     Well, you know... [08:01] Yuuto     But stopping you guys by myself won't be easy. [08:10] Yuuto     If I allow Midousuji-san     to go after him right away, [08:12] Yuuto     then this will have been pointless. [08:14] Yuuto     It all comes down to how      long I can hold him back. [08:17] Midousuji     Why are you looking at me like that? [08:20] Midousuji     You're so cool, aren't you? [08:22] Midousuji     What? What's wrong? [08:24] Midousuji     Your movements are slow.     You're short of breath. [08:29] Midousuji     What happened to your cool     mannerisms and smart remarks? [08:33] Midousuji     Look at how close I am. [08:35] Midousuji     I thought speed and proximity were     supposed to be your specialties. [08:43] Yuuto     Damn it. My legs feel so heavy. [08:45] Midousuji     Now then, maybe I'll go after him. [08:48] Midousuji     I could still easily catch up to     Kuroda-kun and Manami. [08:57] Yuuto     Damn it. He's got me in the palm of his hand. [09:00] Midousuji     What a shame. [09:02] Midousuji     Your desperate attempt to     buy time was for nothing! [09:10] Yuuto     Yeah! [09:14] Yuuto     You're not going anywhere.     I'm going to stop you. [09:17] Yuuto     Speed and proximity are my specialties! [09:21] Yuuto     Yeah! [09:23] Fan A     Did you see that? [09:25] Fan B     He accelerated to stop Kyoto Fushimi! [09:28] Fan C     Wow! [09:29] Fan D     But #16 looks like he's struggling.     He's sweating so much. [09:35] Midousuji     Huh? I thought Komari-kun had     caught up, but it's you again. [09:43] Midousuji     You're persistent. [09:45] Yuuto     This is brutal. My legs fight moving.      I pushed myself too hard. [09:55] Yuuto     Damn. I'm out of power bars. [10:02] Yuuto     My bottle's empty, too. [10:04] Yuuto     But I can't let him go yet. [10:07] Yuuto     It'll come down to how     long I can hold him here. [10:10] Midousuji     Huh? [10:11] Midousuji     Did you just wobble a little? [10:15] Midousuji     Are you okay? Are your legs shot? [10:18] Midousuji     Your hands must feel numb, too. [10:22] Midousuji     You don't need to push yourself so hard. [10:24] Midousuji     You should seek treatment right away. [10:26] Midousuji     After all, nothing's more     important than your health. [10:29] Midousuji     You should get off your     bike as soon as you can. [10:34] Midousuji     You'll feel more comfortable. [10:36] Yuuto     Comfortable? Yeah, I'm sure I would be. [10:41] Yuuto     My vision has been going blurry, too. [10:43] Yuuto     This situation is difficult and drab, but... [10:49] Yuuto     But... [10:50] Midousuji     You don't have to keep going. [10:52] Midousuji     Your seniors will forgive you if     you shamefully stop pedaling now. [10:59] Midousuji     After all, you're still only a first-year. SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club [11:07] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Congratulations, Yuuto. [11:09] (Flashback) Kaneyan     You're the sixth member of     the Inter-High team, #16. [11:13] (Flashback) Shinosan     Good luck. [11:14] (Flashback) Yuuto     Thank you. [11:15] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Pretty impressive for a first-year. [11:18] (Flashback) Shinosan     Yeah. [11:18] (Flashback) Yuuto     I have your guidance to thank for that. [11:24] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Yeah, right. [11:26] (Flashback) Shinosan     You looked down on us at first, didn't you? [11:32] (Flashback) Kaneyan     We're third-years now. [11:34] (Flashback) Kaneyan     We'll never wear Hakone Academy's     jersey at the Inter-High. [11:38] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Look after Takuto, Yuki, and Izumida for us. [11:42] (Flashback) Kaneyan     You're still only a first-year. [11:44] (Flashback) Kaneyan     You'll probably be made to     take on drab and tough jobs. [11:47] (Flashback) Kaneyan     They might feel like forgotten     and thankless jobs, [11:49] (Flashback) Kaneyan     but I guarantee those efforts     will help the team down the line. [11:55] (Flashback) Kaneyan     This is my advice for you: [11:57] (Flashback) Kaneyan     No matter how tough things get,      remember these words. [12:01] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Yuuto... [12:03] (Flashback) Kaneyan     Don't give up. [12:06] Yuuto     Why? Why am I suddenly     remembering that day now? [12:12] Yuuto     I'd forgotten until now. [12:15] Yuuto     Is that something I should be remembering     when I'm under so much strain? [12:18] Yuuto     "Don't give up," huh? [12:20] Yuuto     There's no way I can give up. [12:25] Yuuto     Is this what it means to     ride as part of a team? [12:29] Yuuto     Hakone Academy is insane. [12:33] Yuuto     It's a mighty team. [12:36] Midousuji     His dying flame flared up again. [12:41] Komari     What are you doing, Midousuji-san? [12:44] Komari     Just ignore his obviously exhausted flesh. [12:47] Komari     I have no interest in it or him. [12:51] Komari     Let's go to the climbing flesh      that waits ahead of us! [12:54] Komari     To Manami Sangaku. [12:57] Yuuto     To Manami-san? [12:59] Komari     Or would it be all right     for me to go without you? [13:05] Midousuji     Yeah, sure. [13:08] Komari     Climbing flesh! [13:10] Komari     To the flesh! [13:13] Yuuto     Seriously? Kyoto Fushimi's sending #116, too? [13:20] Yuuto     But... [13:22] Yuuto     I've gotta go. [13:25] Yuuto     My body is way past its limit, [13:28] Yuuto     but my answer is... [13:29] Yuuto     Yes! [13:34] Komari     What? [13:35] Komari     How? He caught up? [13:37] Komari     Using his tattered flesh,     which should be exhausted? [13:42] Yuuto     I won't give up! [13:45] Komari     Could it be? No, it must be. [13:49] Midousuji     Shall we go now, Komari-kun? [13:53] Midousuji     We're running out of time for playing games. [13:57] Midousuji     We'll resume our pursuit. [14:00] Yuuto     If they get away from me now... [14:04] Midousuji     Komari-kun? [14:10] Komari     I'm sorry, Midousuji-san.     You go on without me. [14:13] Komari     I've become interested in this flesh. [14:17] Komari     This flesh that should be     exhausted is still moving. [14:21] Komari     They say skilled riders [14:23] Komari     use completely different muscles     at the start and end of a race. [14:28] Komari     The glutes, the lats, the quads,      and of course, the abs. [14:32] Komari     The muscles extending from the hips     to the muscles of the upper leg, [14:35] Komari     and the muscles attached to the scapula. [14:37] Komari     Each muscle that we think     of a singular muscle [14:39] Komari     has an important function and     is split into many parts. [14:43] Komari     Muscles lose their mobility as     they accumulate lactic acid. [14:46] Komari     In bicycle racing, it's the sensation     of your legs being completely spent. [14:51] Komari     But what if you had other     muscles you could use? [14:54] Komari     What if you could turn your pedals with     something other than your leg muscles? [14:58] Komari     That's right. [14:59] Komari     You could continue moving even after you     thought your muscles were exhausted! [15:03] Yuuto     What is he talking about? [15:04] Komari     But this is all theoretical. [15:08] Komari     That's right. [15:08] Komari     Normally it's impossible to     have such precise control [15:10] Komari     over which muscles you're using. [15:12] Komari     But think about it. [15:14] Komari     The human body is made     of blood, flesh, and bone. [15:18] Komari     Imagine it. [15:20] Komari     Can you control your blood? [15:23] Komari     Can you control your bones? [15:25] Komari     No, but that's right.     You can control your flesh. [15:30] Yuuto     I thought he was accelerating, [15:32] Yuuto     but now he's slowing down to turn around and     throw me off by saying confusing things? [15:37] Yuuto     I'm not falling for that. [15:40] Yuuto     I want Hakone Academy's jersey to win! [15:44] Komari     See? He moved again. I knew it. [15:48] Komari     Don't get the wrong idea. [15:49] Komari     It's not your powerful will or determination     that's moving your body right now. [15:55] Komari     It's your muscle control. [15:57] Komari     They say it's possible to manipulate     specific muscles by knowing them well, [16:01] Komari     being aware of their parts,     and imagining their movements. [16:05] Komari     But there are those who consciously     achieve that through hard work [16:09] Komari     and geniuses who naturally     achieve that through feel. [16:12] Komari     And there's one essential condition     to controlling your muscles by feel. [16:19] Komari     High quality flesh that obediently     submits to your instincts. [16:25] Yuuto     Kyoto Fushimi's #116, Kishigami Komari... [16:29] Yuuto     Is this guy for real? [16:33] Komari     Your legs appear to be exhausted,     and yet they're still moving. [16:38] Komari     You're hiding something, aren't you? [16:39] Komari     You must be hiding something,     Hakone Academy first-year Shinkai Yuuto! [16:45] Komari     What are you using to ride? [16:47] Komari     Your iliopsoas? Your obliques? [16:49] Komari     No, if you're doing it subconsciously,     then you wouldn't know. [16:53] Komari     Your ability to move exceeds my imagination. [16:57] Komari     Your exceptional flesh comes from good stock. [17:02] Komari     Let me touch your Stealth Impact     so I can feel it for myself! [17:06] Komari     Impact! [17:08] Yuuto     This is what Kuroda-san was worried about. [17:11] Yuuto     I'm not letting you touch me! [17:16] Midousuji     Komari-kun, we're in the     final stages of the race. [17:20] Midousuji     I expected him to stop somewhere before     we reached the finish line, but... [17:28] Midousuji     I never thought Shinkai Yuuto-kun's     efforts would stop Komari-kun. [17:36] Midousuji     Komari-kun, you really have no restraint. [17:41] Midousuji     That's fine. You did plenty     on the first and second days. [17:48] Midousuji     I can take it from here. [17:50] Midousuji     Besides, the area ahead... [17:53] Midousuji     can only be entered by those     who earnestly desire victory! [17:59] Midousuji     Those who lack strength,     those who fell to strategies, [18:02] Midousuji     and those who seek something     else cannot enter this place! [18:06] Midousuji     Here, before the finish line! [18:09] Midousuji     Victory, victory, victory! [18:14] Fan E     Whoa, did you feel that gust? [18:15] Fan F     He rode just inside the white     line on this wide course! [18:20] Fan E     Is he trying to shave centimeters     and seconds off his time? [18:25] Fan E     It's finally go time for Kyoto Fushimi! SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [18:38] Manami     I see. After that, Yuuto... [18:41] Kuroda     Yeah. Thanks to him, I caught up to you. [18:46] Kuroda     I was worried we were babying him. [18:48] Kuroda     There was a time when I thought he     didn't know his place on the team [18:52] Kuroda     because everyone treated him so gingerly     as Shinkai-san's younger brother. [18:56] Kuroda     But he understood what he had to do. [19:01] Minami     Sounds promising. [19:04] Kuroda     You know, he once asked me for advice. [19:08] Minami     Advice? [19:09] Kuroda     About you, Manami. [19:11] Manami     Huh? SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club [19:14] (Flashback) Yuuto     Tell me, Kuroda-san. [19:16] (Flashback) Yuuto     There's something I need to make     clear before the Inter-High. [19:20] (Flashback) Yuuto     How can I make Manami-san take me seriously? [19:26] (Flashback) Yuuto     Didn't the legendary climber     Toudou-san recognize his skill? [19:29] (Flashback) Yuuto     I want to beat him. [19:31] (Flashback) Yuuto     But he's always dodging my challenges,     smiling, and won't climb all-out against me. [19:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     The other day at practice, [19:39] (Flashback) Kuroda     you celebrated because you reached     the top of the mountain before him. [19:43] (Flashback) Yuuto     I found out later that he wasn't even trying. [19:47] (Flashback) Yuuto     He was gossiping about how     I must've tried really hard. [19:51] (Flashback) Kuroda     He did that to build up your confidence. [19:56] (Flashback) Kuroda     Shouldn't you be thanking him? [19:58] (Flashback) Yuuto     Well, it's not working. [20:00] (Flashback) Yuuto     I rode like crazy to win group F      of the selection tournament. [20:05] (Flashback) Yuuto     But Manami-san got out of climber group C      with Hakone Academy's first-ever bye. [20:10] (Flashback) Yuuto     He won a number tag without     having to fight for it. [20:15] (Flashback) Yuuto     I want to know how he rides. [20:16] (Flashback) Yuuto     I want to beat him, [20:18] (Flashback) Yuuto     so I can prove I'm the climber, Shinkai Yuuto. [20:22] (Flashback) Kuroda     Don't glare at me like that. [20:25] (Flashback) Kuroda     There is definitely a way to make him go all-out. [20:30] (Flashback) Kuroda     But... [20:32] (Flashback) Kuroda     I doubt you'll see it.     I'm not even sure I will. [20:38] Kuroda     "Because he only goes all-out on the     third and final day of the Inter-High," [20:43] Kuroda     "before the finish line     in the final mountains." [20:45] Manami     You really talked me up, Kuroda-san. [20:48] Manami     Don't expect anything impressive from me. [20:49] Kuroda     Oh, but you will impress me. [20:54] Kuroda     I know how hard you've worked this past year. [20:57] Kuroda     I know you burdened yourself     with a heavy responsibility [21:01] Kuroda     and became depressed after placing     second at last year's Inter-High. [21:05] Kuroda     And I know you got over it and have     become unbelievably strong, too. [21:11] Manami     It's not like I worked that hard. [21:14] Manami     I was always late to Sunday practice. [21:18] Kuroda     You're just that confident, huh? [21:20] Kuroda     That's why it doesn't bother you that     this red guy is right behind us. [21:27] Manami     I tried to accelerate past him,     but Naruko-kun followed me up here. [21:37] Naruko     I'm not lettin' Hakone Academy slip past me. [21:39] Naruko     I jumped on board. [21:41] Naruko     I won't let y'all have it your way. [21:43] Kuroda     Manami, are you confident? [21:46] Manami     Yes. He's not much of a climber. [21:49] Manami     I could accelerate and leave     him in my dust at any time. [21:54] Naruko     We're in the final mountains,     with less than ten kilometers [21:56] Naruko     to the finish line. [21:58] Naruko     Onoda-kun and hotshot are up ahead,     trying to stay out of reach. [22:01] Naruko     A minor miscalculation here     could affect who wins. [22:06] Naruko     Though it seems like nothing's happenin',      the situation is fraught. [22:11] Naruko     I can feel the cracklin' tension. [22:15] Naruko     I feel like I'm on fire! [22:17] Naruko     My red blood's about to start boilin'! [22:22] Naruko     You could leave me in your dust anytime? [22:25] Naruko     Is that what you said, Manami? [22:27] Manami     Yeah, I stated it clearly. [22:30] Naruko     On this climb? [22:32] Manami     Yes, since you're not much of a climber. [22:38] Naruko     In that case... [22:39] Naruko     Shall we race, Manami? [22:43] Kuroda     He slipped through the     30-centimeter gap between us. [22:48] Manami     Your riding's faster and more     precise than it was last year. [22:55] Naruko     I'm the man who never stops evolvin',     the genius Naruko Shoukichi! [23:01] Naruko     You interested, Manami? [23:03] Minami     You're challenging me here,      in these mountains? [23:07] Naruko     Your hearin' must be pretty     good if you caught all that.

[00:29] Naruko     Are you a flippin' bullet train? [00:35] Manami     Oh? You kept up. [00:37] Manami     I can tell you're straining yourself. [00:39] Naruko     Of course I am.

[01:00] Naruko     You're really gettin' on board with it. [01:02] Manami     You mean the train, or your joke? [01:04] Naruko     The joke. [01:06] Manami     Now that I think about it, even though we     both raced in the Inter-High last year... [01:12] Manami     We've never spoken much before. [01:16] Manami     What a novel experience. [01:18] Naruko     Of course we didn't. [01:19] Naruko     You're a climber, and last     year I was a sprinter. [01:26] Kuroda     Wait, Manami. [01:27] Manami     Kuroda-san... [01:31] Kuroda     Your contest is over.     Quit racing him immediately. [01:35] Kuroda     There's no need to accept his challenge. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    Naruko VS Manami, a Tense Battle [03:11] Kuroda     Did you think this was the     crossroads of the race? [03:15] Kuroda     That was pretty clever of you, Naruko. [03:17] Kuroda     Your plan was to challenge Manami [03:19] Kuroda     and exhaust him just before     the finish line, wasn't it? [03:23] Kuroda     Even if it meant sacrificing yourself. [03:26] Naruko     Sacrifice? Not a chance, Kuroda-san. [03:30] Naruko     I'm on my way to the front of the race... [03:35] Naruko     by pullin' ahead of Manami. [03:39] Naruko     I've got an old promise left     unfulfilled from last year. [03:43] Naruko     I'm headin' to the front so     I can make good on that, too. [03:49] Kuroda     Pull ahead of Manami and reach the front? [03:52] Kuroda     Is he bluffing? [03:55] Kuroda     He thinks he can pull ahead     of Manami on this climb? [03:58] Kuroda     You're not capable of that! [04:00] Manami     So that was his plan after all. [04:03] Manami     I could tell from the way he was riding. [04:06] Naruko     Oh, right. I forgot to mention     the rule I came up with. [04:10] Naruko     Just ridin' normally wouldn't be any fun. [04:13] Kuroda     Rule? Fun? [04:16] Naruko     Our destination is the lead riders. [04:18] Naruko     Until we reach them,     no ridin' two against one. [04:22] Naruko     Sorry, Kuroda-san, but you're     not allowed to interfere. [04:26] Naruko     But in exchange, I'll give something up, too. [04:31] Naruko     If I lose this race, I'll stay behind     Kuroda-san until I cross the finish line.

[05:18] Fan B     He instantly caught up to Sohoku! [05:20] Naruko     Crap, you caught up already? [05:23] Manami     Did you just say,     "Crap, you caught up already?" [05:25] Naruko     Whoa! Nah, you must've misheard me. [05:28] Manami     Are you sure you're okay? [05:29] Naruko     Shut up. I said, uh,     "Crap, I love being red." [05:35] Manami     Before long, you'll be     saying I passed you. Look. [05:39] Manami     You'd better pedal like     your life depends on it. [05:41] Fan C     Hakone Academy is so fast! [05:43] Naruko     He passed me already. [05:45] Naruko     It's not surprising,     considering Manami's a pure climber. [05:48] Naruko     Though I've learned to climb,     I'm still just a sprinting all-rounder. [05:53] Naruko     He's on another level. [05:55] Manami     You're one step behind. [05:58] Manami     That's what makes you different     from a pure climber. [06:02] Manami     Do you want to forfeit this race? [06:04] Manami     I can already see how this ends. [06:06] Naruko     Oh, yeah? And where do you see that? [06:09] Naruko     There isn't an outcome in this world     that can be seen before it happens. [06:12] Naruko     In 100% of cases,     you won't know until you try. [06:16] Naruko     He's on another level, but my chances      of beating him are greater than zero. [06:19] Manami     That's exactly what I'd hoped you say. [06:22] Naruko     Then don't ask, dummy. [06:26] Manami     I guess you could say I wanted to confirm... [06:29] Manami     if I could really go all-out against you. [06:32] Naruko     Overconfident much? You were appraising me? [06:35] Manami     You're expensive, Naruko-kun. [06:37] Manami     You're A5. [06:38] Naruko     Are you callin' me a tasty piece of wagyu? [06:41] Manami     No, you're a fighting bull. [06:43] Manami     You're a sucker for red things, aren't you? [06:45] Manami     You charge straight at your     opponents with your horns out. [06:48] Naruko     Of course. I'm always puttin'     my life on the line [06:52] Naruko     with everything I do! [06:59] Naruko     He's friggin' fast. But I'll do     whatever it takes to keep up. [07:03] Manami     Naruko-kun, there are two things     surprising me right now. [07:08] Manami     The first is that you're keeping     up better than I expected. [07:12] Manami     I thought you'd have fallen     behind a while ago, [07:14] Manami     but you've doggedly kept up     with all my accelerations. [07:17] Manami     On this climb, no less. [07:20] Manami     Then there's the other thing. [07:22] Manami     Battling you right now is     more fun than expected. [07:25] Manami     That goes for me and for you. [07:28] Manami     We're both enjoying this tension. [07:31] Manami     I always feel most alive when     I'm brushing up against death. [07:40] Manami     Right now, I feel alive. [07:46] Naruko     Manami, you're a pretty     flashy daredevil, too. [07:51] Naruko     Each time I've kept up with you,     I've felt a fire burnin' inside me. [07:56] Manami     I'm glad I took you up on your challenge. [07:58] Manami     It was fun. Thanks. [08:02] Manami     But unfortunately, our race is over. [08:06] Manami     We'll probably catch up to the lead     riders once we're past the next turn. [08:10] Manami     Then I'll accelerate at full speed. [08:13] Manami     You won't be able to keep up. [08:15] Manami     I'll get there first. [08:17] Manami     I don't know what your plan was, [08:20] Manami     but challenging me on this climb     really was a reckless gamble. [08:27] Naruko     That's right, I took a gamble. [08:30] Manami     On your own potential? [08:32] Manami     Look, the backs of the lead     riders are coming into view. [08:35] Naruko     Our race isn't over yet. [08:43] Manami     Huh? I don't see them. [08:46] Manami     The lead riders aren't here. [08:48] Manami     Huh, I guess our race isn't over yet. [08:52] Manami     Shall we race a little longer? [08:54] Manami     They're farther ahead than I— [08:56] Naruko     You're right. Looks like they're farther     ahead than you guys expected, Manami. [09:03] Manami     He's smiling? [09:05] Naruko     So that's what Hakone Academy      expected after all. [09:08] Naruko     You thought you'd catch up to the     lead riders around here on the climb. [09:12] Naruko     In road races, predicting future     events affects the outcome. [09:17] Naruko     I expect we'll catch up to the     lead riders farther ahead. [09:22] Naruko     I made a different prediction     from Hakone Academy. [09:25] Naruko     That's why I challenged you. [09:27] Manami     That's his gamble? [09:28] Naruko     Do you know what I mean by     "farther ahead," Manami? [09:34] Naruko     That's right. I'm sure you     saw it on the course map. [09:37] Naruko     Once we're out of the next two turns, [09:40] Naruko     the climb will end temporarily. [09:42] Naruko     The course turns into a flat road     passing by the beautiful Lake Yumi. [09:49] Manami     A flat road? [09:51] Manami     Naruko-kun is a sprinting all-rounder. [09:55] Naruko     I'm at a total disadvantage on a climb. [09:57] Naruko     But if I can drag it out into the flats,      then I've got a chance. [10:02] Naruko     The difference in our predictions     determined this contest. [10:05] Naruko     We're risking everything in     this tense last-minute battle [10:07] Naruko     as we push ourselves to the limit. [10:10] Naruko     You're right. This is truly fun. [10:14] Naruko     Come on, Manami.     It's time for the final battle. [10:19] Manami     I see. I'm surprised. [10:21] Manami     I didn't realize this was your strategy. [10:24] Manami     We expected to catch up on the climb. [10:28] Manami     You expected our race to continue     into the flats past the climb. [10:33] Manami     And you used the difference in     our expectations against us. [10:36] Manami     Not bad. [10:39] Manami     As it should be. [10:41] Naruko     Manami stood up? [10:42] Naruko     He entered his dancing stance. [10:45] Naruko     His eyes say he's ready to fight. [10:47] Naruko     Of course. Though there are flats     ahead and their prediction was wrong, [10:54] Naruko     we're still on his home turf—a climb! [10:59] Manami     Let's go! [11:04] Manami     Naruko-kun said we'd be into the flats     once we're through these two turns. [11:10] Manami     Two? That's right. [11:12] Manami     There's still two whole     turns' worth of climbing. [11:15] Manami     Our race isn't over yet. [11:19] Manami     Show yourselves, lead riders. [11:21] Naruko     Damn, he's freakin' fast. [11:23] Naruko     Is Manami even human? [11:25] Naruko     Oh, right. He's a bullet train. [11:36] Manami     They're not here? [11:38] Manami     One more turn to go. [11:40] Naruko     All right. We still haven't seen them. [11:42] Naruko     I've just got to hold on for one more corner. [11:46] Naruko     Then the climb will be over. [11:49] Naruko     Stay out of sight, Onoda-kun and hotshot. [11:52] Naruko     Once the climb is over,     we'll be on a flat road. [11:54] Naruko     I'll speed past him then. [12:01] Naruko     But if there's a break in the climb, [12:04] Naruko     that means we'll have reached a peak. [12:08] Naruko     And it's a bit windy on peaks. [12:14] Naruko     But I'll be fine. [12:16] Naruko     Naruko Shoukichi, the Speedman      of Naniwa, is a friend of the wind. [12:20] Naruko     Once we enter the flats,     I'll show off my true... [12:26] Naruko     The wind? Crap. [12:29] Naruko     I heard this guy uses the wind, too. [12:30] Manami     The wind's picking up... [12:36] Manami     Naruko-kun... [12:37] Naruko     He's a friend of the wind, too!      He's accelerating. [12:44] Naruko     Crap, what was that? [12:46] Naruko     He accelerated like some kind of CGI model. [12:49] Naruko     I saw wings for a second. [12:51] Naruko     I'm accelerating at full speed,      but I can't keep up. [12:54] Naruko     What are you, the Linear Shinkansen? [12:57] Manami     This is the last turn. Show yourselves. [13:00] Manami     Show yourselves, show yourselves! [13:03] Manami     Show me the lead pack! [13:08] Manami     I see. The lead riders still aren't in sight. [13:13] Manami     I'm impressed, Naruko-kun. [13:16] Manami     Congratulations. You won your gamble. [13:20] Manami     It was a long shot, but you didn't hesitate. [13:24] Manami     Why not? [13:27] Naruko     Before I answer your question,     you're too friggin' fast. [13:31] Naruko     Were you tryin' to kill me? [13:34] Manami     Look. The lead riders are on     the other side of the flats. [13:38] Manami     We failed to catch up to them     on the climb like we expected. [13:44] Naruko     Why didn't I hesitate? [13:48] Naruko     It's not that I didn't have doubts. [13:50] Naruko     After all, I was up against you. [13:52] Naruko     And the conditions were tough. [13:54] Naruko     I barely made it. [13:56] Naruko     But still, I gambled. [13:58] Naruko     Like you said, on my own potential. [14:02] Naruko     I persevered. [14:04] Naruko     But I couldn't have won this gamble alone. [14:09] Manami     What? [14:10] Naruko     There was another thing I bet on: [14:15] Naruko     the potential of my teammates. [14:19] Naruko     I didn't stand a chance [14:21] Naruko     unless they sped up the mountains     faster than Hakone Academy expected [14:25] Naruko     and far ahead on the flats     where I'm strongest. [14:31] Naruko     While racing against you,     I kept praying in my head, [14:35] Naruko     "Go, Onoda-kun. Hurry it up, hotshot." [14:40] Manami     A prayer, huh? I see. [14:45] Manami     This race was actually three against one. [14:52] Manami     I know I wasn't any weaker than you, though. [14:56] Manami     Maybe I enjoyed chatting too much. [14:58] Manami     Sorry, Kuroda-san. [15:02] Kuroda     Listen to me, Manami. [15:04] (Flashback) Kuroda     You can go, but promise me one thing. [15:08] (Flashback) Kuroda     Even if something goes wrong and it looks     like he's going to win, don't over-commit. [15:13] (Flashback) Kuroda     There's no need. [15:16] (Flashback) Kuroda     He's... [15:18] (Flashback) Kuroda     working too hard. [15:21] (Flashback) Kuroda     In this race, [15:23] (Flashback) Kuroda     before he reaches the finish line... [15:26] (Flashback) Kuroda     he'll drop out. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [15:38] Onoda     Imaizumi-kun! [15:41] Imaizumi     Yeah, I see him. Honestly, I'm surprised. [15:46] Imaizumi     It's not a blue jersey or a purple one. [15:51] Imaizumi     It's hard to believe, but it's     our team's yellow jersey. [15:59] Naruko     The flashy genius of Naniwa is     finally here, Onoda-kun and hotshot. [16:04] Naruko     I, Naruko Shoukichi, have finally [16:08] Naruko     made the flashiest [16:11] Naruko     of returns! [16:13] Onoda     Naruko-kun! [16:14] Imaizumi     Naruko. [16:16] Imaizumi     I'm glad you made it back. [16:18] Naruko     You surprised, hotshot? [16:19] Naruko     Does my flashiness make you dizzy? [16:22] Naruko     Good, that shocked expression     is exactly what I wanted to see. [16:28] Imaizumi     Yeah, I'm genuinely surprised. [16:31] Imaizumi     You let me and Onoda get ahead. [16:33] Imaizumi     The Kyoto Fushimi pair caught up just     as you put a lid on Hakone Academy. [16:38] Imaizumi     And you escaped from that     melee all on your own. [16:43] Imaizumi     You couldn't have done it with     calculation and stamina alone. [16:46] Naruko     Sorry, but like I told you, I'm a genius. [16:50] Naruko     I'm overflowing with inventiveness,     ingenuity, and competitive instincts. [16:57] Imaizumi     Aren't inventiveness and     ingenuity the same thing? [17:00] Naruko     Don't correct me like some     kind of hotshot, hotshot! [17:03] Imaizumi     I was just thinking you lack language skills. [17:06] Naruko     Shut up! I was baskin' in my glory. [17:08] Naruko     Just make some sounds of amazement. [17:10] Imaizumi     Oh, wow. [17:12] Naruko     With feeling! [17:13] Imaizumi     Wow... [17:15] Naruko     Sixty points. [17:16] Imaizumi     Personally, I think that     was worth 100 points. [17:19] Naruko     That was 100 points? [17:20] Naruko     You're emotionless. Emotionally bland. [17:22] Naruko     You're like salt-flavored rice crackers. [17:24] Imaizumi     What kind of metaphor is that? [17:27] Onoda     But, um, I really, um... [17:31] Onoda     Thank you, Naruko-kun. [17:34] Imaizumi     What are you thanking him for? [17:36] Naruko     Don't say that! [17:38] Onoda     It must've been really hard. [17:42] Onoda     To make it here, I mean. [17:44] Onoda     Like Imaizumi-kun said,     it must've been really hard. [17:49] Onoda     Your back... [17:52] Onoda     Even your number tag is soaked with sweat. [17:56] Naruko     Well, yeah. I mean, it was no big deal. [17:59] Naruko     He was a pushover. [18:01] Imaizumi     What exactly did you fight against? [18:03] Naruko     A mountain-going bullet train. [18:04] Imaizumi     What? [18:06] Onoda     I think you must've worked really hard. [18:11] Onoda     But because of that, look. [18:15] Onoda     The three of us are currently riding     at the front of the Inter-High. [18:20] Fan D     The lead pack is here! [18:22] Fan E     It's three Sohoku riders! [18:24] Fan F     What? Just one team? [18:26] Fan G     Yeah, riding all by themselves! [18:29] Fan H     If they hold their positions,     they'll sweep the top three! [18:33] Imaizumi     You're right, Onoda. [18:35] Imaizumi     There are seven kilometers     remaining to the finish line. SIGN    Road Race Distance Remaining 7km [18:38] Imaizumi     Once we ride out those last seven     kilometers, we'll finish first. [18:42] Onoda     Yeah. [18:45] Naruko     We get it, you yahoo. [18:47] Naruko     You don't have to spell it out for us. [18:50] Naruko     We're this close to achieving our promise. [19:01] (Flashback) Makishima     Dream, Onoda. [19:04] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? Did you say "dream"? [19:08] (Flashback) Makishima     Dream dreams with no hope of coming true. [19:11] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? You mean during a race? [19:15] (Flashback) Makishima     Sure I do. [19:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm not sure that's a good idea. [19:19] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Calm judgment and decisiveness     are vital during races. [19:24] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Like K-Kinjou-san. [19:26] (Flashback) Makishima     Don't worry. [19:28] (Flashback) Makishima     You could spend your whole life trying,     and you'd never become Kinjou. [19:32] (Flashback) Sakimichi     You're right... [19:37] (Flashback) Makishima     I'm a realist. [19:39] (Flashback) Makishima     I think too much, and I don't dream. [19:43] (Flashback) Makishima     But you're different. [19:45] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? [19:47] (Flashback) Makishima     Until now, you've made     many dreams come true. [19:52] (Flashback) Makishima     In your first-year race,     you caught up to Imaizumi. [19:55] (Flashback) Makishima     At the Inter-High, you brought     Tadokorocchi back to the team [19:59] (Flashback) Makishima     and took our jersey across     the finish line first. [20:05] (Flashback) Makishima     You made the impossible possible with your     dreams of who and what you wanted to be. [20:14] (Flashback) Makishima     That power of yours is     stronger than anyone else's. [20:18] Onoda     Power? I have power? [20:23] (Flashback) Makishima     So dream. Dream outrageous     and impossible dreams. [20:29] (Flashback) Makishima     Sometimes you'll fail.     Sometimes they won't come true. [20:33] (Flashback) Makishima     But your repeated efforts will     draw in the people around you... [20:38] (Flashback) Makishima     and become a powerful force     that pushes you forward. [20:43] Onoda     A powerful force... [20:45] Onoda     On that hot summer day, Makishima-san gave      me some advice in our club room. [20:49] Onoda     He told me to dream. [20:53] Onoda     I didn't really understand     it then, but now I really do. [20:58] Onoda     The three of us will cross     the finish line together. [21:02] Naruko     When we do, I'll be in the center. [21:04] Imaizumi     The center? You mean when we finish? [21:07] Imaizumi     It should be me. [21:08] Naruko     What? Why? [21:09] Imaizumi     I know, I'll rush ahead when we're     right in front of the finish line. [21:12] Naruko     Even though we're teammates? [21:14] Imaizumi     Because we're teammates. [21:14] Onoda     Just knowing there's a possibility     makes my heart pound. [21:20] Onoda     I feel like strength and courage     are endlessly pouring out of me. SIGN    Road Race      Distance Remaining      7km [21:25] Onoda     There are still seven kilometers remaining. [21:27] Onoda     Our opponents are behind us. [21:29] Onoda     It's not guaranteed. I know that. [21:33] Onoda     But if I maximize my power to dream,     I feel like I can face any challenge. [21:41] Onoda     Come on, guys. Don't fight. [21:44] Onoda     What are you talking about? [21:45] Naruko     Who would you prefer to be in the center? [21:47] Imaizumi     When we cross the finish line. [21:49] Onoda     Um, who? I'm not sure. Uh... [21:56] Naruko     For now, it doesn't matter. Let's go. [21:59] Onoda     What? Uh, yeah. [22:01] Naruko     The race isn't over yet. [22:03] Imaizumi     Yeah. [22:04] Onoda     Yeah.

[03:44] Naruko     Onoda-kun, it's a downhill. We'll gain speed. [03:47] Naruko     Stick close so you don't fall behind. [03:50] Sakamichi     Okay! [03:53] Naruko     That's a nice determined response. [03:55] Naruko     I'll have to do my best to stick close, too. [03:59] Naruko     My field of view's been shrinkin'     because I'm not gettin' enough oxygen. [04:07] Manami     Now, then... [04:08] Manami     What shall we do, Kuroda-san? [04:11] Kuroda     Don't worry. We'll catch up     on the downhill up ahead. [04:15] Kuroda     You just wait, Sohoku. [04:27] Naruko     Crap. [04:28] Naruko     I'm havin' trouble finding the      correct angle on the turns. [04:32] Naruko     I'm practically enterin'     them on instinct alone. [04:36] Naruko     Whoa! [04:38] Imaizumi     What are you doing?      Don't fall behind, Naruko. [04:41] Imaizumi     Avoid gaps in the road's surface. [04:43] Imaizumi     Even those will slow you down a little. [04:45] Naruko     I know that, hotshot. Ain't no big deal. [04:49] Naruko     I can't them, damn it. [04:51] Naruko     I was just enjoyin' the     scenery since it's so pretty. [04:55] Naruko     Quit nitpickin'. [04:56] Naruko     A high-speed downhill with my     limited vision is pretty risky. [05:02] Imaizumi     What if you fall or get a flat? [05:08] Imaizumi     I have to nitpick because we're in the lead. [05:16] Imaizumi     The riders behind us are closing in [05:19] Imaizumi     at full speed so they can     knock us out of position. [05:21] Sakamichi     There are riders behind us! [05:23] Naruko     I know that, you jerk. [05:26] Imaizumi     Road racing is an equipment-based sport.

[05:41] Imaizumi     We're trying to stay ahead, and the     guys behind us are trying to catch up. [05:45] Imaizumi     The slightly less than seven kilometers     remaining may seem short, but they're not. [05:49] Imaizumi     You can't assume things will go as expected. [05:52] Imaizumi     That's why you need to carefully and     consistently get the details right. [05:58] Imaizumi     All of us do. [06:04] Naruko     You're exactly right, hotshot. [06:06] Naruko     Every single thing you said is correct. [06:08] Naruko     But if I could add just one thing... [06:11] Naruko     It's that you gotta be bold sometimes. [06:13] Naruko     Opportunities are only born from bold moves. [06:18] Sakamichi     Bold moves... [06:21] Imaizumi     You're right. [06:23] Imaizumi     Sounds like you really do know     what you're doing, Naruko. [06:26] Naruko     Of course I do. [06:28] Naruko     Sometimes a man's gotta be bold. [06:32] Naruko     And flashy. [06:37] Imaizumi     Let's go. Don't let your guard down. [06:42] Imaizumi     And let's raise our pace a little more. [06:44] Imaizumi     We'll create a decisive lead     over the riders behind us. [06:47] Imaizumi     We'll do our best to stay out     of reach until the finish line. [06:51] Sakamichi     Got it. [06:51] Naruko     Sure thing. That'd be supremely flashy. [07:01] Fan D     The last rider's going up the hill! [07:04] Fan E     You can do it!

[08:07] Doubashi     The tent next door sure is noisy. [08:08] Kaburagi     Aoyagi-san! Did you hear that, Aoyagi-san? [08:10] Nurse     No! [08:11] Doubashi     Right, Sohoku's Aoyagi-san? [08:11] Kaburagi     Let me go! [08:14] Nurse     No! [08:16] Aoyagi     Yeah, sorry. Our idiot's making     all that noise by himself. [08:22] Doubashi     You're not going to make     any noise, Aoyagi-san? [08:25] Aoyagi     It's incredible. I'm thrilled after     hearing the announcement, too. [08:30] Doubashi     What? That's what "thrilled" looks like? [08:33] Doubashi     Does this guy barely react to things? [08:36] Aoyagi     But we won't know for certain     until the race is over. [08:40] Aoyagi     Favorable situations are     frequently turned around. [08:44] Aoyagi     But if I could talk to them now, [08:49] Aoyagi     I'd praise them. [08:50] Aoyagi     I'd tell them they did a good job. [08:53] Aoyagi     It's not easy to achieve such a huge     lead in the final stages of a race. [09:00] Doubashi     Our team won't let your guys get away. [09:03] Doubashi     We've got Manami and Kuroda-san. [09:06] Doubashi     I know they'll do it. [09:07] Aoyagi     Probably. It won't be easy. [09:11] Aoyagi     And my words won't reach them. [09:15] Aoyagi     So I'll pray. [09:18] Doubashi     Pray? [09:20] Aoyagi     We all put our faith and trust in each other. [09:24] Aoyagi     That's how Team Sohoku rides. [09:30] Naruko     Looks like things won't go as     planned after all, hotshot. [09:34] Imaizumi     Yeah. [09:36] Sakamichi     What? [09:39] Imaizumi     We're raising our pace on the downhill, [09:44] Imaizumi     but our opponents have raised     their own speed quite a bit. [09:49] Kuroda     Look, Manami. [09:51] Kuroda     You can see the lead Sohoku riders. [09:57] Sakamichi     I just caught a glimpse     of the riders behind us. [10:00] Sakamichi     Two blue jerseys. It's Hakone Academy. [10:05] Aoyagi     You'd better not lose,     Imaizumi, Naruko, Onoda. [10:11] Doubashi     I'm counting on you, Kuroda-san and Manami. [10:15] Sakamichi     They're behind us. They're right behind us. [10:18] Imaizumi     I know. I'm doing everything I can. [10:23] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san, huh? He's fast on downhills. [10:29] Imaizumi     I thought I knew what to expect, but I     didn't think they'd catch up this quickly. [10:36] Kuroda     I'm not letting you... [10:39] Kuroda     have your way, Sohoku! [10:46] Manami     That's how Kuroda-san always     shifts into a higher gear. [10:49] Manami     They can't escape him now. [10:51] Kuroda     Hold up, Sohoku! [10:54] Naruko     They're coming, hotshot. [10:56] Sakamichi     They're closer than before. [10:59] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is 50 meters behind us. [11:04] Sakamichi     40 meters. [11:06] Imaizumi     I know, Onoda. [11:08] Imaizumi     Damn, they're closing in. [11:11] Imaizumi     On downhills, the riders in front     face the brunt of the wind, [11:16] Imaizumi     so the riders behind them have an advantage. [11:20] Imaizumi     But that's just an excuse. [11:27] Sakamichi     30 meters. [11:29] Sakamichi     They're right on our tails. [11:33] Imaizumi     Remove the limiter! [11:37] Imaizumi     Remove it! [11:40] Imaizumi     Should we let them catch up     so we can prepare ourselves? [11:44] Imaizumi     Is that the safer choice? [11:46] Imaizumi     No, that's just another excuse. [11:49] Imaizumi     Keep moving forward, Imaizumi Shunsuke. [11:52] Imaizumi     In a high-speed downhill battle,     whoever defeats their own fear wins. [11:57] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san, if you're trying to catch up     on this downhill, then I'll take you on. [12:03] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, your shoulder... [12:11] Imaizumi     I'll pull ahead of you. [12:15] Kuroda     Sohoku's Imaizumi... [12:18] Kuroda     ran up against the guardrail to slow     himself down instead of braking. [12:22] Kuroda     Interesting. He's challenging     me to a downhill battle? [12:26] Kuroda     He wants to go head to head? [12:29] Kuroda     Bring it on. [12:32] Kuroda     Flex, cat legs! [12:42] Sakamichi     That let us pull ahead of     them to about 80 meters. [12:47] Naruko     Are you stupid, hotshot?     You're out of control. [12:50] Naruko     I can barely see over here. [12:53] Imaizumi     It's still going. Don't relax yet. [12:56] Sakamichi     60 meters... [12:58] Sakamichi     They're closing in again. 50 meters. [13:01] Kuroda     Hey, elite! [13:03] Imaizumi     Kuroda-san! [13:05] Imaizumi     It's all right. We'll reach     the climb ahead of them. [13:08] Imaizumi     If we can get there without them catching up, [13:11] Imaizumi     then we'll hold whatever     lead we have on the climb. [13:14] Imaizumi     It's difficult to close gaps on a climb. [13:16] Imaizumi     Let's stay focused. [13:19] Sakamichi     40 meters. [13:21] Sakamichi     Hakone Academy is on us. [13:23] Imaizumi     Let's speed up again. [13:28] Imaizumi     Remove the limiter! [13:31] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [13:35] Sakamichi     Um, behind us... [13:38] Imaizumi     I know. You mean Hakone Academy, right? [13:41] Sakamichi     No, actually. I just caught a     glimpse of the guy behind them. [13:49] Imaizumi     Behind them? [13:52] Naruko     What? [13:55] Sakamichi     He's catching up from behind Hakone Academy. [14:02] Sakamichi     It's Kyoto Fushimi! [14:05] Sakamichi     Midousuji-kun... [14:11] Midousuji     I caught up on this downhill. [14:16] Midousuji     Just as planned. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [14:28] ---      [14:33] Midousuji     Gotcha, housefly! Sand fly! [14:38] Imaizumi     Damn it! I don't have time     for Midousuji right now! [14:41] Kuroda     Damn, it's Kyoto! [14:43] Kuroda     I knew you'd show up on the downhill! [14:52] Manami     Kuroda-san, he caught us.

[15:16] Sakamichi     He's trying to catch up to     us on this downhill, too. [15:21] Kuroda     You may be fast, Midousuji,     but you're going too fast. [15:25] Kuroda     There's a banked 270-degree turn up ahead. [15:30] Kuroda     If you enter it at that speed, you'll slip. [15:37] Kuroda     Wait, what's happening? [15:39] Kuroda     He's not slowing down. [15:41] Kuroda     Midousuji's entering the     turn at his current speed? [15:46] Kuroda     What kind of crazy diving bank is that? [15:57] Kuroda     He took that corner at an      unbelievable angle and speed! [16:03] Sakamichi     He's right behind us. [16:06] Imaizumi     Seriously? He's so damn fast. [16:09] Imaizumi     It's all right. This downhill is ending soon. [16:12] Imaizumi     It's a straight line     after that. Don't let up. [16:14] Imaizumi     We're nearly at the climb. [16:17] Imaizumi     He's fast, but not much faster than us. [16:20] Imaizumi     We can hold our lead. [16:21] Sakamichi     Yeah! [16:23] Naruko     Stay ahead of them, hotshot! [16:24] Imaizumi     As long as we don't make any mistakes, [16:27] Imaizumi     they won't catch up. [16:31] Imaizumi     Part of the road is uneven. Be careful. [16:34] Sakamichi     Yeah. [16:35] Imaizumi     We're entering the climb. [16:36] Imaizumi     Shift to a lighter gear when we do. [16:38] Sakamichi     Yeah. [16:48] Midousuji     Gross! [16:51] Imaizumi     Naruko! [16:52] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun! [16:53] Naruko     Sorry, I hit a bump. [16:56] Imaizumi     Midousuji! [16:58] Sakamichi     He passed us. [17:00] Sakamichi     He passed all five riders fighting     for the lead on this downhill, [17:06] Sakamichi     like a ferocious insect consuming its prey. [17:10] Midousuji     Consume! I consumed my prey. [17:13] Midousuji     I passed them. [17:15] Midousuji     The houseflies. [17:16] Midousuji     And the sand flies. [17:18] Midousuji     Just as planned, on this downhill. [17:25] Midousuji     I'll hone my alertness and the sensitivity     of all the nerves in my body and search, [17:32] Midousuji     as though groping around     for pebbles in the mud. [17:39] Midousuji     Always considering and selecting     what can be discarded. [17:42] Midousuji     Everything unnecessary and useless. [17:47] Midousuji     Status, praise, and useless assertions     are nothing more than vanity. [17:53] Midousuji     Everything not necessary to victory     will be discarded without hesitation. [18:00] Midousuji     And finally, I search only for things     that will lead me to victory. [18:06] Midousuji     Find, secure, and execute. [18:10] Midousuji     A teammate slipped? A friend is in trouble? [18:14] Midousuji     Who turns around out of     concern during a race? [18:20] Midousuji     Haven't I told you again and again... [18:25] Midousuji     that friendship should be the     first thing you throw away? [18:40] Fan H     It's #111 with the number yellow tag!

That's bigger than I thought. [19:15] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, he's already way up there. [19:17] Imaizumi     He got us. [19:20] Midousuji     How disgraceful, Sohoku. [19:23] Midousuji     All three of you. [19:26] Midousuji     I'll maintain the lead I built     before the climb on the uphill. [19:32] Midousuji     And closing it is no mean feat. [19:34] Midousuji     Didn't you have the     same thought, Chirpizumi-kun? [19:37] Midousuji     That's correct. [19:40] Midousuji     That little climb is a huge     opportunity to seize victory. [19:45] Midousuji     So I devoted my entire body     and mind to passing everyone. [19:52] Midousuji     A 200-meter lead with 5.5 kilometers to go. [19:55] Midousuji     That's plenty. [19:58] Midousuji     In road races, riders often hold 30 to     50 meter leads before the finish line. [20:06] Midousuji     I bet you wasted time     building up your friendship, [20:09] Midousuji     helping each other, and dreaming together. [20:13] Midousuji     That was all a waste of time! [20:17] Midousuji     Throw it away. When your friend skidded earlier, [20:21] Midousuji     you should've enjoyed the lighter load [20:24] Midousuji     without sparing a glance and     charged ahead at full speed.

[04:08] Midousuji     You should've quietly given up. [04:13] Midousuji     But you're still fighting? Gross! [04:18] Midousuji     You think you can catch     up to me? On this climb? [04:22] Midousuji     Is that your final challenge? [04:27] Midousuji     Didn't I tell you at the very start? [04:31] Midousuji     You only get one shot. [04:35] Midousuji     But you raced me before the     finish line on the first day, [04:38] Midousuji     stuck to me in the mountains yesterday,     and now you're challenging me again today. [04:43] Midousuji     You're persistent. [04:46] Midousuji     You're awfully persistent, Naruko! [04:52] Naruko     You know, Midousuji... [04:54] Naruko     Challenges don't end     until a winner is chosen. [04:58] Naruko     Let's make our final race a flashy one. [05:02] Fan D     Sohoku's Naruko accelerated again! [05:06] Fan E     He's slowly closing the gap on the climb! [05:08] Fan F     He's catching up!     He's only 150 meters behind! [05:15] Midousuji     He's coming. He's getting closer. [05:20] Naruko     Reducing weight is essential to climbing. [05:22] Naruko     I'm getting rid of stuff     I don't need anymore. [05:26] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun still had water in that bottle! [05:29] Naruko     I'll shed weight and accelerate again. [05:33] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun, don't push yourself any harder! [05:36] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun— [05:39] Sakamichi     No, that's not right. [05:41] Sakamichi     I shouldn't be trying to stop him right now. [05:44] Sakamichi     I should face forward with him. [05:46] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun... [05:52] Naruko     Hold up. [05:53] Naruko     Hold up, Dumbosuji! You're not gettin' away! [05:58] Fan G     Sohoku is still closing the gap! [06:00] Fan H     They're 100 meters behind! [06:04] Imaizumi     Naruko reduced the 200     meter gap to 100 meters. [06:07] Sakamichi     We have a clear view of Midousuji-kun's back. [06:10] Midousuji     What? That man... [06:15] Naruko     Oh, right. I've got one     last bit of weight to shed. [06:26] Naruko     Reducing weight is essential to climbing. [06:28] Naruko     Throw away everything you don't need. [06:30] Naruko     What do you think of my Naruko-style     flashy ultimate lightweight climb? [06:35] Sakamichi     His saddle, too? [06:42] Sakamichi     He threw it away. [06:43] Naruko     We're just 100 meters behind now. [06:46] Naruko     Dancin' will be enough to     catch up to you, Midousuji. [06:51] Naruko     I won't need that thing anymore. [06:53] Sakamichi     He's not going to sit back down on his bike? [06:57] Sakamichi     But we're still five kilometers      away from the finish line! [07:01] Imaizumi     Naruko... [07:04] Midousuji     You're doing that again, Naruko? [07:09] Midousuji     That saddle-less sprint to     the finish you demonstrated [07:14] Midousuji     during our unofficial race      in Osaka last year? [07:22] Midousuji     You've thrown away something important [07:26] Midousuji     without hesitation for     that last bit of resolve... [07:32] Midousuji     to settle our drawn-out contest at last? [07:40] Midousuji     Settle it? Too bad, though. [07:46] Midousuji     Your resolve will be for nothing... [07:50] Midousuji     Because it's impossible     for you to catch up to me. [07:55] Naruko     I swear I'll catch up to you. [07:59] Fan I     Kyoto Fushimi accelerated!     Sohoku accelerated in pursuit, too! [08:03] Fan J     They're still 100 meters behind! [08:06] Naruko     I'll do whatever it takes to catch up     with my original sprint climb! [08:12] Naruko     Come on, flashy body. Move it. [08:16] Naruko     I told you to wait, Dumbosuji! [08:19] Fan K     Wow, Sohoku is catching up! [08:21] Fan L     They're 80 meters behind the leader! [08:25] Fan M     70 meters! 60 meters! [08:29] Fan K     They're going to catch up! [08:34] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun... [08:36] Midousuji     Naruko's closing in. [08:39] Midousuji     But he won't catch up.     He's pushing himself pretty hard. [08:45] Midousuji     When a body is pushed too hard,     regardless of the mind's intentions, [08:49] Midousuji     it suddenly reaches its     limit and stops moving. [08:56] Naruko     Dumbosuji, just a little more.      I'm almost there. [09:00] Naruko     I can't give up. Move, flashy legs. [09:05] Sakamichi     We're 50 meters from the front. [09:18] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun lost consciousness... [09:21] Midousuji     Too bad, Naruko. You did     good hanging on until now. [09:27] Midousuji     But the thread connecting one's body and mind     is thin and prone to suddenly snapping. [09:35] Midousuji     Looks like I'll win our contest after all. [09:42] Sakamichi     He's going to fall... [09:47] Imaizumi     What's wrong, Naruko? [09:51] Naruko     Hotshot... [09:52] Sakamichi     That's the first time I've seen     Imaizumi-kun carry Naruko-kun. [10:00] Imaizumi     Why did you suddenly stop     pedaling and look at the ground? [10:04] Imaizumi     Remember what you told me? [10:06] Imaizumi     I thought you were burning at 300 degrees. [10:14] Naruko     Stupid hotshot... [10:17] (Flashback) Koga     Naruko... [10:18] (Flashback) Koga     Looks like you're working on something     new to surprise us again this year. [10:24] (Flashback) Naruko     It'll be a piece of cake. [10:26] (Flashback) Naruko     I'll be heating things up     this summer to 300 degrees! [10:32] Imaizumi     Naruko, I thought your     body was harder than iron. [10:38] Naruko     You remembered that, stupid hotshot? [10:41] Naruko     Yeah, you can count on me. [10:44] Naruko     Don't rush me, hotshot.     I've just reached 280 degrees. [10:49] Naruko     I'm almost there. [10:54] Naruko     I'm heating up to 300 degrees. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [11:06] Imaizumi     That pathetic wobble of     yours widened the gap again. [11:12] Imaizumi     We'd brought it down to 50 meters, but     now we're about 120 meters behind again. [11:18] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun's phrasing is cold, [11:22] Sakamichi     but his hand is firmly supporting     Naruko-kun so he doesn't fall. [11:25] Sakamichi     He's inspiring Naruko-kun. [11:29] Imaizumi     I thought you were going     to pull us to the front. [11:34] Imaizumi     I thought you were a super express. [11:37] Naruko     That was a single-track section. I was just     waitin' for the train comin' the other way. [11:43] Naruko     Don't underestimate the Naruko Super Express. [11:46] Naruko     The Naruko Super Express always     makes good on its promises. [11:49] Naruko     It's got red cars and never runs late. [11:54] Naruko     As planned, it'll reach its     destination right on schedule! [11:59] Naruko     At maximum speed... [12:08] Imaizumi     Naruko Shoukichi! [12:11] Imaizumi     The man called Naruko Shoukichi! [12:13] Imaizumi     The Naruko Shoukichi I know     always overcomes all obstacles. [12:19] Imaizumi     He's a powerful man who     charges straight ahead. [12:22] Imaizumi     Do it. Complete the final     task you chose for yourself. [12:31] Naruko     Now you're talkin', hotshot. [12:33] Naruko     Thanks. I'll accept your     injection of determination. [12:38] Sakamichi     That's the first time I've seen     Imaizumi-kun help Naruko-kun. [12:43] Sakamichi     And the first time I've heard     Naruko-kun thank Imaizumi-kun. [12:50] Sakamichi     We're changing, like ripples colliding     as they expand across the water. [12:57] Sakamichi     Until recently, I didn't want     Naruko-kun to jump ahead. [13:01] Sakamichi     I didn't want him to go any farther ahead. [13:05] Sakamichi     Even though the three of     us made it this far... [13:08] Sakamichi     Even though we were so close     to fulfilling our promise... [13:13] Sakamichi     Even though Makishima-san     told me to dream... [13:18] Sakamichi     I thought if Naruko-kun rested, [13:21] Sakamichi     the three of us would be able to     cross the finish line together. [13:25] Sakamichi     But no, that's not right anymore. [13:30] Sakamichi     We're changing. Every second, we're changing. [13:37] Sakamichi     Just as all six of us can't finish     together as much as we'd like to, [13:43] Sakamichi     the three of us can't     finish together anymore. [13:47] Sakamichi     Makishima-san was probably     trying to tell me... [13:50] (Flashback) Makishima     So dream. Dream outrageous     and impossible dreams. [13:55] (Flashback) Makishima     Sometimes you'll fail.     Sometimes they won't come true. [14:00] (Flashback) Makishima     But your repeated efforts will     draw in the people around you... [14:10] Sakamichi     I'm supposed to hold onto our dreams [14:14] Sakamichi     and turn them into the strength to     clear new roads, and advance down them! [14:20] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun! [14:23] Sakamichi     It must be tough. It must be really tough. [14:27] Sakamichi     But, um, thank you for doing this. [14:31] Sakamichi     So let me give you all the     determination I can, too. [14:43] Naruko     Thanks, Onoda-kun, hotshot. [14:49] Naruko     I just reached 300 degrees. [14:54] Fan N     Sohoku's catching up like crazy! [14:57] Fan O     Look! His bike doesn't have a saddle! [14:59] Fan P     Sohoku's red guy, Naruko,     is dancing without a saddle! Wow! [15:06] Imaizumi     Naruko! [15:07] Sakamichi     Naruko-kun! [15:11] Naruko     I can feel their determination. It's crazy. [15:17] Naruko     It's drivin' me forward. [15:19] Naruko     Even though I'm strugglin'     and nearly at my limit, [15:22] Naruko     I feel so powerful! [15:31] Midousuji     Naruko! [15:34] Naruko     Midousuji, I'm here. Just like you said,     I threw away everythin' I didn't need! [15:43] Naruko     I threw away my bottles, my saddle,     and even finishin' the race! [15:48] Naruko     I threw it all away to get here. [15:51] Naruko     And after throwin' it all away, [15:54] Naruko     the last thing remaining is the     thing you said to throw away first. [15:58] Naruko     It's friendship. [16:00] Fan Ql     Sohoku caught up to the lead     Kyoto Fushimi rider on the climb! [16:10] Midousuji     He's beside me? Right beside me? [16:12] Midousuji     He caught up to me? [16:16] Midousuji     Friendship? What? [16:18] Midousuji     After throwing everything away,     he still had friendship left? [16:22] Midousuji     Gross, gross, gross... [16:25] Midousuji     He used the thing he should've     thrown away first? What? [16:31] Midousuji     Is that how you caught up to me, Naruko? [16:37] Naruko     We caught up. Right, hotshot? [16:42] Naruko     Right, hotshot? We should be next to him. [16:46] Naruko     I can sense him. We're right     next to Midousuji, right? [16:52] Imaizumi     Naruko can't see anymore. [16:58] Imaizumi     Yeah, we caught right up to him. [17:02] Imaizumi     You did well. [17:04] Imaizumi     Thank you. [17:06] Naruko     I'm glad... to hear... that. [17:13] Fan R     #3 is falling back after all that hard work. [17:15] Fan S     They're letting him rest in the back. [17:18] Fan R     Wait, no. They didn't send him back. [17:24] Sakamichi     Thank you, Naruko-kun. [17:27] Naruko     We caught up. We really caught up. [17:31] Naruko     I did it. I really did it. [17:34] Naruko     I've got nothing left. [17:40] Naruko     My hands, my legs, my toes... [17:44] Naruko     I've used everything up. [17:47] Naruko     I feel so fulfilled. [18:01] Naruko     Hotshot, Onoda-kun, take this     with you to the finish line. [18:10] Naruko     An injection of determination from me. [18:16] Naruko     Go all-out, and make it flashy. [18:22] Midousuji     You didn't even spare a glance for     your friend when he dropped out [18:26] Midousuji     just before the finish line? [18:28] Midousuji     I thought friends were supposed to rush     to their side and ask if they're okay. [18:31] Midousuji     I thought friends cried and     screamed out of sadness. [18:35] Imaizumi     Naruko wouldn't want that. [18:38] Imaizumi     Don't look back. Head toward the finish line. [18:41] Imaizumi     That's Naruko's last wish. [18:50] Imaizumi     Attack all you want. I'll stop you. [18:54] Imaizumi     And I'll cross the finish line before you, [18:58] Imaizumi     as our team's ace. [19:00] Midousuji     You'll stop me? [19:02] Midousuji     You were so weak last year. [19:05] Midousuji     I thought you'd grown a little after a year, [19:10] Midousuji     but you made errors in judgment,     chirped like a baby, and broke again this year. [19:15] Midousuji     You groaned and gasped in surprise. [19:18] Midousuji     You haven't changed at all,     but you think you can stop me? [19:25] Fan T     Sohoku and Kyoto Fushimi collided! [19:27] Fan U     They're raring to go! [19:29] Midousuji     Hitting him with his handlebars     didn't make him falter. [19:32] Midousuji     Wimpy little Groanizumi! [19:34] Imaizumi     What's the matter? [19:38] Imaizumi     Bring it on. [19:40] Imaizumi     We're at the front of the race. [19:42] Imaizumi     The front of the race     is always a battlefield. [19:46] Imaizumi     Let's tear each other apart, Midousuji. [19:51] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun's body is emitting     some kind of pressure. [19:55] Sakamichi     It's so strong. [19:59] Midousuji     Groanizumi, what is this pressure? [20:03] Midousuji     You look like you've just     been released from the limits [20:07] Midousuji     that had been restraining you. [20:11] Midousuji     In that case, shall we go? [20:14] Midousuji     Either way, the only way to win [20:17] Midousuji     is to either outsmart you or     pull ahead by brute force.

[21:01] Tadokoro     After all, it's the culmination     of all their efforts. [21:05] Kinjou     Yeah, win or lose. [21:10] Makishima     Don't make it sound so sad. [21:12] Makishima     At least dream with them. Dreaming is free. [21:19] Kinjou     You don't often talk about dreams, Makishima. [21:25] Makishima     What can I say? Those three were dreamers. [21:29] Makishima     Onoda, Naruko, and Imaizumi... [21:33] Makishima     Those three always shrieking and squabbling. [21:36] Makishima     They kept facing forward     when the going got tough [21:39] Makishima     and worked together to find solutions. [21:42] Makishima     They were always dreaming outrageous dreams. [21:46] Makishima     And they passed that on to me. [21:51] Makishima     It's too bad about Naruko, though. [21:55] Makishima     But he probably conveyed     his hopes to the other two [21:58] Makishima     and gave them a push,     trusting his dreams to them. [22:02] Tadokoro     Yeah, no doubt about it. [22:08] Makishima     In the end, you didn't get to see     the finish this year either, Naruko. [22:14] Makishima     But knowing you, you probably     collapsed after exhausting yourself. [22:21] Makishima     I'll say it again. Impressive work, Naruko.

[06:35] Midousuji     The opportunity to leave Groanizumi     behind and get ahead of him. [06:39] Midousuji     Find it. It must be around here somewhere. [06:42] Midousuji     The path to victory... [06:45] Midousuji     Pry open the tiny gap to that path. [06:50] Midousuji     I'll stick my fingers inside and pry it open. [06:53] Midousuji     And I'll crawl through it. [06:56] Midousuji     I'll crawl like my life depends     on it and seize victory. [07:05] Imaizumi     He's riding so close to the edge of the     course that he knocked down a sign. [07:11] Imaizumi     He's taking the shortest route     straight to the finish line. [07:16] Imaizumi     Is Onoda keeping up? [07:18] Imaizumi     No, I can't afford to worry     about what's behind me. [07:21] Imaizumi     I need to focus all my attention on     what's in front of me, or he'll beat me. [07:25] Iamizumi     That's the kind of pressure Midousuji exudes. [07:30] Midousuji     Feel free to slow down if your legs     are getting tired, Groanizumi. [07:37] Midousuji     Groanizumi! [07:41] Imaizumi     Crap! [07:43] Fan C     Sohoku wobbled! [07:44] Fan D     Their wheels collided! [07:45] Fan E     Kyoto Fushimi accelerated in the meantime! [07:48] Midousuji     You lost focus for a moment there. [07:53] Midousuji     What's wrong? Were you thinking     about your teammate behind you? [08:00] Imaizumi     Our wheels made contact! [08:03] Imaizumi     Since the front rider's back wheel is     bearing his weight and driving him forward, [08:07] Imaizumi     the rear rider's front wheel is deflected. [08:10] Fan F     Did he take advantage of a     moment's opening on purpose? [08:14] Fan F     Does that mean Kyoto Fushimi     expected this to happen? [08:19] Fan F     The course is about to enter a     downhill along a steep ridge. [08:26] Imaizumi     That's right. This year, there are two     downhills at the end of the course. [08:29] Imaizumi     The downhill before the climb     we just finished, and this one. [08:36] Midousuji     It's open. [08:39] Midousuji     The hole! The gap! To* victory*. [08:44] Midousuji     I did it. A lead here is massive. [08:47] Midousuji     My victory is becoming certain. [08:49] Midousuji     I didn't miss a moment's opening. [08:52] Fan G     Kyoto Fushimi's coming down in the lead! [08:54] Fan H     Why is he leaning so far forward? [08:57] Fan I     He's practically on top of his handlebars! [08:59] Fan J     He's reducing his wind resistance     by streamlining his profile! [09:03] Midousuji     I don't need your cheers. [09:05] Midousuji     Why don't you direct them     at the guy behind me? [09:11] Midousuji     Wish him luck. [09:13] Midousuji     He's a little baby chick     who never seems to grow up. [09:18] Fan G     Kyoto Fushimi's all alone! [09:20] Fan H     He's more than three seconds     ahead of the guy behind him! [09:25] Imaizumi     Damn it! [09:27] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun! [09:32] Imaizumi     Don't worry, Onoda. [09:35] Imaizumi     I'm so calm right now,      I can hardly believe it myself. [09:41] Sakamichi     What? [09:42] Imaizumi     I felt this once before last year on     the third day of the Inter-High. [09:49] Imaizumi     While fighting on the climb up Mt. Fuji, [09:52] Imaizumi     all sounds faded away. [09:54] Imaizumi     My senses were heightened. [09:58] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Riding at the front is so quiet. [10:08] Imaizumi     It feels great. It's a good feeling. [10:12] Imaizumi     I'm growing right now. [10:17] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [10:19] Imaizumi     I'm going to catch up to him now. [10:21] Imaizumi     I can do it. [10:23] Imaizumi     I can tell. I can feel it. [10:26] Imaizumi     I'll ride in front. [10:32] Imaizumi     You're an interesting guy, Midousuji. [10:35] Imaizumi     You always use tricky techniques and     risky methods to get in front of me. [10:42] Imaizumi     You got me yet again. [10:44] Imaizumi     Bring it on. I'll brush you aside. [10:47] Imaizumi     Using all the strength     I have, again and again, [10:51] Imaizumi     I'll keep knocking you down! [10:54] Imaizumi     Midousuji Akira! [10:56] Fan I     Sohoku's closing in! He's stupid fast! [10:59] Fan J     He's crazy! [11:01] Fan I     That's Imaizumi! The second-year, Imaizumi. [11:03] Fan I     He's famous in Chiba. [11:06] Fan I     He's swept every tournament     title since he was little. [11:09] Fan I     Last year he served as his team's ace     assist in the Inter-High as a first-year. [11:14] Fan I     On the third and final day,     on the climb up Mt. Fuji, [11:17] Fan I     he even fought against Hakone Academy's     ace Fukutomi and won the mountain result. [11:26] Fan K     He caught up to Kyoto Fushimi! [11:29] Midousuji     I thought I'd finally pried open the gap. [11:35] Midousuji     You closed my precious three-second lead. [11:40] Midousuji     Not bad. [11:42] Midousuji     I'd expect nothing less     from Sohoku's ace. So cool. [11:47] Midousuji     But you rode so hard to catch up. [11:50] Midousuji     You may look fine, [11:54] Midousuji     but you're short of breath, aren't you? [11:57] Fan L     Kyoto Fushimi accelerated! [11:58] Fan L     The gap's widening again! [12:00] Midousuji     Attacks are most effective right after     your opponent has finished his own attack. [12:06] Midousuji     After someone has used all     the muscles in their body, [12:08] Midousuji     raised their heart rate,     and pushed their heart, [12:13] Midousuji     even the most athletic person needs some     time before they can go all-out again. [12:22] Midousuji     And repeatedly going all out makes     your cells and muscles scream. [12:29] Midousuji     I will pull ahead. [12:31] Midousuji     You'll fall here, Groanizumi. [12:38] Imaizumi     Didn't I tell you to bring it on     and that I'd stop you? [12:43] Midousuji     What? [12:45] Imaizumi     You were right earlier. I haven't     changed at all since one year ago. [12:50] Imaizumi     You outsmarted me and won yesterday. [12:54] Imaizumi     I hadn't achieved anything     over the past three days. [12:57] Imaizumi     But there are people who     praised me regardless. [13:02] Imaizumi     "Good job." "You're amazing." "Not bad." [13:08] Imaizumi     Sometimes I hear their voices in my head. [13:11] Imaizumi     They encourage me to keep going. [13:15] Imaizumi     They're telling me to fight.     To stand strong. To move forward! [13:25] (Flashback) Naruko     Catch, hotshot. [13:31] (Flashback) Naruko     Don't dodge it, you jerk! [13:33] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I thought it might be poisoned. [13:36] (Flashback) Naruko     Why would I poison you? [13:37] (Flashback) Imaizumi     So it's not poisoned? How unusual. [13:44] (Flashback) Naruko     I've been wondering lately     about when a person grows. [13:52] (Flashback) Imaziumi     Grows? Are you trying to get taller? [13:56] (Flashback) Naruko     That's not what I meant, you jerk! [13:58] (Flashback) Naruko     When they've lost something important,     their pride has been shattered, [14:03] (Flashback) Naruko     and they've hit rock bottom. From there... [14:12] (Flashback) Naruko     I think people grow when they've     gotta start all over from nothing. [14:20] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Oh, you were being serious. [14:24] (Flashback) Naruko     Yeah... [14:26] (Flashback) Naruko     Real serious. [14:30] Imaizumi     When the struggle makes people give up once, [14:34] Imaizumi     but they're still struggling to     move forward and rise back up, [14:41] Imaizumi     that's when people grow. [14:43] Imaizumi     That's when they become stronger. [14:44] Fan M     Sohoku's attacking! He's pulling     ahead of Kyoto Fushimi! [14:47] Imaizumi     Isn't that right, Naruko? [14:49] Fan N     Wow, he's pulling ahead! [14:53] Fan M     Is he going for the      finish line from back here? [14:56] Imaizumi     I'm going for it from here. [14:59] Imaizumi     I can do it. I can tell. I can feel it. [15:02] Imaizumi     I'll claim the finish line from here. [15:05] Imaizumi     I'll do it myself. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [15:30] Fan O     Go! [15:31] Fan P     Keep it up and you'll win again this year! [15:35] Imaizumi     I don't hear anything. It's quiet. [15:38] Imaizumi     It feels like all the cells in     my body are connected to my brain [15:41] Imaizumi     and are moving freely. [15:48] Imaizumi     They're directly connected. [15:50] Imaizumi     Crap, this feels amazing. [15:54] Imaizumi     I could win this year's Inter-High, [15:57] Imaizumi     as long as nothing happens. [16:02] Fan Q     Kyoto Fushimi's desperately chasing him! [16:04] Fan R     But he's slowing falling behind! [16:06] Fan S     That's it! He's gonna make it! [16:09] Fan S     This year's winner is Sohoku! [16:12] Fan Q     No, we don't know yet. [16:14] All     What? [16:15] Fan Q     There's a sudden wind blowing. SIGN    Inter-High Road Race [16:18] Fan Q     And some cold air has suddenly     blown in and darkened the skies. [16:25] Fan Q     The weather changes quickly     in the mountains. [16:28] Fan Q     Maybe it's temporary, but it's possible     that on the downhill ahead... [16:37] Fan Q     It'll rain. [16:45] Imaizumi     Rain?! [16:47] Imaizumi     Now? On the downhill? [16:52] Imaizumi     It hampers visibility and makes     the road surface hard to see. [16:55] Imaizumi     Not only that, but rain lifts dust when it     starts falling, reducing my tires' grip. [17:03] Imaizumi     It might cause me to slip. [17:08] Imaizumi     Rain is risky, but we're     all in the same boat. [17:13] Imaizumi     Road racing is an all-weather sport. [17:16] Imaizumi     The terrain and weather are part of the race, [17:21] Imaizumi     and we fight to determine the     winner under those conditions. [17:25] Imaizumi     Naturally, I've practiced riding in the rain. [17:29] Imaizumi     I'm going all-out. [17:31] Imaizumi     I'll ride alone under these conditions. [17:35] Midousuji     Rain! [17:37] Midousuji     Such unfortunate weather we're having. [17:39] Imaizumi     Midousuji! [17:42] Midousuji     What's wrong? You look     like you've seen a ghost. [17:48] Midousuji     You just said you'd ride alone, didn't you? [17:53] Imaizumi     When did he get right behind me? [17:56] Midousuji     Don't be so surprised. [17:58] Midousuji     I just turned my pedals and caught up to you [18:02] Midousuji     while you were hesitating     because of the rain. [18:06] Midousuji     I showed up while you were regaining     your balance after slipping. [18:16] Midousuji     I closed the gap you so desperately created. [18:33] Fan R     Kyoto Fushimi's so close! They're colliding! [18:35] Fan S     They're riding right next to each other! [18:37] Fan S     Aren't they scared? It's raining! [18:42] Imaizumi     Does he not understand how risky the rain is? [18:45] Midousuji     Fall, and it's over. [18:48] Midousuji     You'll fall dozens of seconds behind. [18:51] Midousuji     An irrecoverable loss. [18:54] Imaizumi     So he does know. He knows, and yet... [18:57] Midousuji     I wonder who summoned this rain. [19:01] Midousuji     It's a passing shower. [19:02] Midousuji     Ten minutes from now or ten minutes earlier,     and we wouldn't have been rained on. [19:05] Midousuji     But it's raining now on this downhill. [19:10] Midousuji     Either you or I summoned it. [19:14] Midousuji     Road racing is about     terrain, weather, and luck. [19:20] Midousuji     The luckiest survive. [19:23] Midousuji     Shall we find out [19:24] Midousuji     whether it was lucky or unlucky     that it started raining? [19:30] Midousuji     Which of us is luckier? [19:32] Midousuji     We'll race around this last turn and     see who enters the climb first. [19:41] Midousuji     Doesn't that sound fun? [19:45] Imaizumi     A race? [19:47] Midousuji     That's right. To the final climb on the     third and final day of the Inter-High. [19:54] Midousuji     One last contest. [19:59] Imaizumi     Fine. Bring it on. [20:02] Midousuji     Shall we decide which of us is worthy     of the champion's title, then? [20:07] Midousuji     Which of us is luckier? [20:10] Midousuji     It'll be decided on this rainy downhill. [20:14] Imaizumi     Midousuji's attacking! [20:19] Imaizumi     He's accelerating again. [20:21] Imaizumi     His rear wheel is slipping,     but he's still dancing to accelerate. [20:25] Midousuji     Gross! So gross! [20:28] Imaizumi     At first glance, his form seems strange, [20:31] Imaizumi     but from behind, [20:33] Imaizumi     I can tell he's moving his body back and     forth precisely to maintain his balance. [20:37] Imaizumi     He's even using his long     neck to shift his weight. [20:40] Imaizumi     They say a person's bike     control is determined by [20:41] Imaizumi     how well they ride downhill on a rainy day, [20:45] Imaizumi     but he's dancing within     millimeters of losing his balance [20:49] Imaizumi     and falling on rain-slick tires. [20:55] Imaizumi     His bike control is actually insanely good. [21:01] Imaizumi     Sorry, though. [21:03] Imaizumi     I'm confident in my own abilities as well. [21:10] Midousuji     You caught up. But should     you be going that fast? [21:15] Midousuji     There's a sharp turn up ahead. [21:18] Midousuji     Shouldn't you be braking? [21:21] Imaizumi     You first. [21:23] Midousuji     No, you go ahead. You'd better hurry. [21:26] Midousuji     Everyone's worried about you. [21:30] Fan G     Are they okay? They won't     make the turn at that speed. [21:33] Fan H     They're charging right in. [21:35] Imaizumi     I know your tricks. [21:40] Imaizumi     You're going to slide right through. [21:47] Fan G     Their frames and styles are different, but... [21:51] Fan H     Yeah, they were perfectly in sync. [21:56] Fan I     Hey! [21:57] Fan J     Wait, stop! The wind blew     the banner into the road! SIGN    You can do it [22:04] Imaizumi     No problem. [22:07] Midousuji     None at all. [22:08] Imaizumi     Move. [22:10] Imaizumi     I'll jump over it. [22:12] All     They jumped on their bikes! [22:17] Fan I     Wow. They're both amazing, but a     winner will be chosen after this. [22:24] Fan I     After all, it's a race. [22:26] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [22:32] Sakamichi     The rain's getting in my eyes. [22:36] Sakamichi     Whoops. [22:39] Sakamichi     It's slippery. I can't see very well. [22:43] Sakamichi     I don't like rain or downhills. [22:47] Sakamichi     My hands are slick, too. [22:49] Sakamichi     The water's seeping into my jersey. [22:52] Sakamichi     My bike control is diminished. [22:55] Sakamichi     But... [22:57] Sakamichi     I'll chase after Imaizumi-kun. [23:00] All     You've got this! [23:05] Sakamichi     I bounced. [23:06] Sakamichi     There was a bump in the puddle.     I didn't notice! [23:11] Sakamichi     Oh, no!

[00:35] Imaizumi     We'll catch up to him soon,      and then pass him. [00:39] Imaizumi     So follow me. [00:44] Imaizumi     Do whatever you can to keep up. [00:47] Imaizumi     Whether it's 100 meters or     10 centimeters before the finish line, [00:54] Imaizumi     pass Midousuji. [00:57] Imaizumi     Our flashy red teammate used the last     of his strength to bring us here. [01:06] Imaizumi     His nonsensical pipe dream [01:09] Imaizumi     of a three-way finish makes     you laugh, doesn't it? [01:14] Imaizumi     So let's do it together, you and I. [01:17] Imaizumi     Sohoku will finish first and second. [01:21] Sakamichi     A one-two finish for Sohoku... [01:25] (Flashback) Naruko     I think it'd feel amazing [01:29] (Flashback) Naruko     if we finished first all     three days together. [01:36] Sakamichi     Our promise to Naruko-kun... [01:41] Sakamichi     Yeah... [01:43] Sakamichi     Yeah. [01:45] Sakamichi     Got it. [01:47] Imaizumi     Let's go. I'll pass Midousuji ahead of us. [01:50] Imaizumi     I'll ride in the lead. [01:53] Sakamichi     So... [01:55] Sakamichi     I need to reach the front. [01:58] Sakamichi     Calm down, calm down. [02:01] Fan A     He's coming this way! [02:02] Sakamichi     Calm down! [02:05] Sakamichi     It calmed down! [02:07] Fan B     That was some crazy cornering! [02:10] Fan C     Did he just drift on a bike? [02:12] Fan D     That couldn't have been on purpose. [02:14] Fan A     But that boy was amazing. [02:17] Fan A     He was looking forward and riding     straight ahead as hard as he could. [02:21] Fan A     Watching him gives me courage. [02:25] Sakamichi     Both Imaizumi-kun and Midousuji-kun are fast. [02:28] Sakamichi     I'm chasing after them as fast     as I can, but I'm falling behind. [02:32] Sakamichi     The way they're riding down this challenging     rainy downhill so quickly is impressive. [02:38] Sakamichi     But I heard the rain robs your      body of heat and stamina. [02:43] Sakamichi     The anxiety-inducing surface     of the road stresses you out. [02:47] Sakamichi     Not only that, but we've been riding for     three days, and this is the final peak. [02:52] Sakamichi     The two riding in the front... [02:55] Sakamichi     must be pretty exhausted. [02:58] Imaizumi     We're almost there. [02:59] Midousuji     We're almost there. [03:00] Both     To the end of the downhill. [03:03] Imaizumi     Midousuji, if you're tired,     feel free to brake and fall back. [03:07] Midousuji     Why don't you go ahead, Groanizumi? [03:10] Midousuji     Go on, fall back. [03:11] Imaizumi     I trust you're keeping up, Sakamichi. [03:15] Imaizumi     Let's go. Sohoku's finishing     first and second. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    Water Gate Dive [04:52] Midousuji     There. [04:53] Imaizumi     I see it. [04:54] Both     The moment of truth.

[05:03] Both     I'll attack. [05:06] Midousuji     Gross! [05:12] Imaizumi     There's a puddle covering the road. [05:15] Imaizumi     Not only that, but it's pretty big. [05:18] Imaizumi     There's a puddle blocking     the start of the climb. [05:23] Imaizumi     Is the drain backed up? [05:25] Imaizumi     Is all the rainwater from this sudden     downpour putting it over capacity? [05:30] Imaizumi     There's a huge puddle at the     critical point on the course. [05:34] Imaizumi     But you'd never suggest we safely and     slowly cross it, right, Midousuji? [05:41] Midousuji     Of course not. [05:45] Midousuji     We're in the middle of the race. [05:47] Midousuji     Doesn't this make it more interesting? [05:49] Midousuji     It's the perfect thing for the end of a      race when we're running on fumes. [05:56] Midousuji     Into the puddle... [05:58] Imaizumi     We'll dive at full speed. [06:00] Midousuji     How deep is it? [06:03] Midousuji     Too deep, and the water     resistance will stop our bikes. [06:08] Midousuji     We want to cross the shallowest point. [06:11] Midousuji     But the depth varies across the puddle. [06:15] Midousuji     Is the inside shallowest? [06:17] Midousuji     Is the outside shallowest? [06:19] Midousuji     Or is the middle? SIGN    MIDDLE [06:22] Midousuji     Cornering theory calls for taking     the shortest route on the inside. [06:28] Midousuji     But that doesn't apply now.

[07:22] Fan F     Will he be okay? [07:23] Fan G     I got stuck down there earlier,     and it was pretty deep! [07:29] Midousuji     Why are you so spirited? [07:36] Midousuji     He fell for it. [07:41] Fan F     What? [07:42] Fan E     Kyoto Fushimi shifted to     the edge of the course! [07:45] Midousuji     This is why everyone still     calls you Chirpizumi. [07:51] Midousuji     You need to be more observant. [07:55] Midousuji     You need to search more desperately     for the path to victory. [08:02] Midousuji     Charge right in, Chirpizumi. Just like that. [08:06] Midousuji     You'll drown in that puddle, unable to fly. [08:11] Imaizumi     Wait. [08:13] Imaizumi     Trust the heavens and charge in? [08:17] Imaizumi     Would he do something like that? [08:20] (Flashback) Midousuji     Underhanded? [08:23] (Flashback) Midousuji     You shouldn't be blaming others. [08:26] (Flashback) Midousuji     That's what you call unjustified resentment. [08:30] (Flashback) Midousuji     You're a nasty, nasty person. [08:36] Imaizumi     He's so chatty and cunning. [08:39] Imaizumi     Would he... [08:41] (Flashback) Midousuji     Now dive into the water gate of fate. [08:46] Imaizumi     ...dive in? [08:48] Imaizumi     Did he entice me into     charging into the puddle? [08:52] Imaizumi     In that case, [08:54] Imaizumi     is there some other strategy to cross this     puddle that only he instantly identified? [09:02] Imaizumi     The drain cover. [09:04] Imaizumi     It was practically invisible under the grass, [09:07] Imaizumi     but there's a covered gutter     on the left side of this road. [09:11] Imaizumi     We have no idea what the road's surface     condition is like under the water. [09:16] Imaizumi     The safest route through     this puddle dive is... [09:20] Imaizumi     on top of the drain cover     on the outside of the turn. [09:25] Fan H     They're both charging into the puddle! [09:27] Fan H     Sohoku's crossing the middle!     Kyoto Fushimi's right on the edge! [09:32] Imaizumi      [09:33] Midousuji     Groanizumi, you have to throw     away your preconceptions. [09:39] Midousuji     Like your preconception that you have     to charge straight into a puddle. [09:47] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But you'd never suggest we safely and     slowly cross it, right, Midousuji? [09:53] Midousuji     I threw away mine and searched. [09:56] Midousuji     Desperately honing my senses,     all the nerves in my body... [10:02] Midousuji     Is there any other way through this puddle? [10:05] Midousuji     A certain method that minimizes damage? [10:14] Midousuji     That's how I found the drain     cover hidden beneath the grass. [10:19] Imaizumi     He got me. [10:21] Imaizumi     He fell back momentarily     so he could change course. [10:28] Fan I     Look! That spray is all     the water he's displacing! [10:32] Fan I     The rider with the smaller spray     is facing less resistance. [10:35] Fan I     He's following the better route. [10:40] Imaizumi     Damn, the water's deep. [10:42] Imaizumi     About half my wheels are submerged. [10:44] Imaizumi     The water resistance is     weighing down my bike. [10:47] Imaizumi     My pedaling legs won't listen to me. [10:54] Imaizumi     My legs... [10:56] Imaizumi     But don't stop, Imaizumi Shunsuke. [11:00] Fan J     Sohoku's heading towards Kyoto Fushimi! [11:06] Midousuji     Groanizumi forced his way over. [11:08] Midousuji     Is he trying to stick to me? [11:10] Imaizumi     Midousuji! [11:12] Fan H     Now that I think about it,     riding through water is really risky. [11:17] Fan H     You can't see anything. [11:19] Fan H     Worst case, you could get a flat. [11:22] Fan I     Yeah, which means their luck is being tested. [11:28] Imaizumi     I taste iron in my mouth. [11:34] Midousuji     Groanizumi! [11:35] Imaizumi     Midousuji! [11:45] Fan K     Sohoku lifted his bike onto the drain cover! [11:50] Fan K     He's on! [11:53] Imaizumi     I told you, this is our last contest. [11:58] Imaizumi     Let's tear each other apart. [12:00] Fan L     Sohoku's right behind Kyoto Fushimi! [12:04] Imaizumi     Move. I'm riding in front. [12:09] Midousuji     You're trying to pass me on      this narrow drain cover? [12:14] Imaizumi     The luck you mentioned is definitely real. [12:19] Imaizumi     Lucky and unlucky are real concepts. [12:24] Imaizumi     But it's not determined from the start. [12:28] Imaizumi     And it never falls into your lap. [12:31] Imaizumi     So I'll go and get it, [12:34] Imaizumi     with all my strength, no matter     how uncool I look, by brute force. [12:40] Imaizumi     Using strength beyond my limits. [12:44] Fan M     Sohoku forced his shoulder in! [12:47] Fan N     He's passing Kyoto Fushimi!     He's exiting the puddle! [12:52] Fan O     On the third and final day of the Inter-High,      the first rider to enter the final climb... [12:58] Fan P     ...is Sohoku's ace and #2, Imaizumi Shunsuke! [13:07] Fan Q     Sohoku's so fast! [13:08] Fan R     He's insanely spirited! [13:11] Fan P     He's still accelerating on the climb! [13:13] Fan O     The gap between Sohoku and     Kyoto Fushimi is widening! [13:17] Midousuji     What? Weakizumi is strong? [13:20] Midousuji     Groanizumi is strong? What? [13:24] Midousuji     That's impossible. [13:29] Fan S     Kyoto Fushimi's chasing him! [13:30] Fan T     He hasn't given up! [13:33] Midousuji     My legs... They're screaming... [13:38] Midousuji     So, what? It doesn't matter. [13:42] Fan U     Sohoku's accelerating again! [13:44] Fan V     He's trying to leave Kyoto Fushimi behind! [13:48] Midousuji     Groan, groan, Groanizumi! [13:51] Midousuji     He's trying to leave me behind? [13:54] Midousuji     Do you really think the     flooded end of the downhill [13:57] Midousuji     was the deciding moment of our contest? [14:01] Midousuji     Groanizumi! [14:04] Midousuji     Gross! [14:07] Imaizumi     This is the end. I'll pull     ahead completely here. [14:12] Imaizumi     That puddle was the deciding     moment of our contest. [14:16] Imaizumi     Throw off the limiter! [14:19] Imaizumi     Going beyond my limits is seriously tough, [14:23] Imaizumi     so grant me strength... [14:26] Imaizumi     Teshima-san. [14:27] Imaizumi     Aoyagi-san. [14:29] Imaizumi     Kaburagi. [14:30] Imaizumi     Onoda. [14:34] Imaizumi     Naruko. [14:35] Imaizumi     One last bit of strength. [14:40] Imaizumi     This is my second Inter-High. [14:42] Imaizumi     I've still got so much to learn. [14:45] Imaizumi     I struggled through this race. [14:47] Imaizumi     I'm grateful I'm allowed to ride     here with this jersey on my back. [14:52] Imaizumi     So I'll beat all challengers! [14:57] Imaizumi     That's what an ace does! [15:00] Fan W     Sohoku's accelerating at full speed! [15:02] Fan V     He's rapidly climbing the final hill! [15:07] Fan W     Kyoto Fushimi's chasing him! [15:08] Fan V     Yeah, but he's fallen behind! [15:11] Midousuji     Groan, groan, groan. [15:14] Midousuji     There's no way I can lose     to weak little Groanizumi. [15:20] Midousuji     Not me. [15:22] Midousuji     Not me! [15:24] Midousuji     Extend your arms. Seek it. [15:27] Midousuji     Extend arms from your pores. [15:30] Midousuji     Extend, extend, extend them all... [15:34] Midousuji     and seize it. [15:46] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     There's a proper way to catch fireflies. [15:50] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     Like this, so you don't crush them.

[16:03] Midousuji     Precious? My body? [16:07] Midousuji     No, it's victory. [16:11] Midousuji     Victory, victory. [16:14] Midousuji     It's victory! [16:30] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     You've got more scrapes again. [16:36] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     Akira, take good care of your body. [16:41] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     You're a hard worker, [16:44] (Flashback) Midousuji Mom     so I worry about you a little. [16:50] Midousuji     You don't need to worry about me. [16:59] Midousuji     I'm falling? Here? [17:05] Midousuji     That's impossible. I'm almost there. [17:12] Midousuji     I'll pedal until I've reached     my limit and pass everyone. [17:21] Midousuji     Pass everyone... [17:24] Midousuji     and win. [17:31] Midousuji     Seize victory... [17:35] Fan X     He fell! [17:36] Fan Y     That's Kyoto Fushimi's #111! [17:42] Fan Z     He was magnificent. [17:47] (Flashback) Midousuji     Open, hole. [17:52] (Flashback) Midousuji     Open, come on. [17:58] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Move, Midousuji. [18:02] (Flashback) Midousuji     Gross. [18:05] Fan Z     Last year he raced with     two colored number tags. [18:09] Fan Z     Spectators trembled at how hard he fought.

[18:42] Kyofushi     Yes, they just announced it. [18:44] Funatsu     He fell? But I just heard     he was riding at the front. [18:48] Funatsu     Did he slip? [18:50] Kyofushi     No, we don't know why yet. [18:53] Funatsu     But we completed all his phases, too. [18:57] Yamaguchi     I see. Midousuji didn't make it to the end. [19:02] (Flashback) Midousuji     In order to ensure the third day     goes advantageously for us, [19:05] (Flashback) Midousuji     I need you to complete this phase. [19:09] (Flashback) Midousuji     It's all riding on your shoulders,     Yamaguchi-kun. [19:17] Yamaguchi     We had our misunderstandings,     but maybe trying to win alone... [19:25] Yamaguchi     Why does he keep making     unreasonable requests? [19:30] Yamaguchi     It's unreasonable!     Unreasonable! Unreasonable! [19:37] Yamaguchi     Maybe we made the most     unreasonable request of him. [19:45] Yamaguchi     He was incredible at     practice and won yesterday. [19:49] Yamaguchi     He's superhuman. [19:51] Yamaguchi     I thought we could count     on him to do anything. [19:55] (Flashback) Ishigaki     Yama, you have to be     Midousuji's conscience. [20:00] Yamaguchi     I should've been watching     Midousuji more closely [20:09] Yamaguchi     because he always pushes     himself to the limit. [20:15] Yamaguchi     Ishigaki-san, is that what you meant? [20:19] Yamaguchi     On the day of your graduation,     you asked me to stay by his side. [20:33] Midousuji     Sakamichi... [20:41] Sakamichi     Sorry, Midousuji-kun. [20:44] Midousuji     Gross. Sorry? What? [20:49] Midousuji     Why did you look at me like that?

[21:13] Midousuji     The rain finally stopped. [21:20] Imaizumi     The rain stopped. [21:23] Imaizumi     I pulled ahead completely. [21:27] Imaizumi     All right. [21:30] Imaizumi     I'm glad my legs lasted. [21:33] Imaizumi     I really was at my limit. [21:36] Imaizumi     I just passed the three-kilometer marker. [21:39] Imaizumi     I'm almost there. [21:42] Imaizumi     My legs are shot, but I can maintain     this pace to the final gate. [21:45] Imaizumi     I see more spectators. [21:48] Imaizumi     The finish line is close. [21:52] Imaizumi     This is crazy. I've won lots of races before,      but the Inter-High is on another level. [22:00] Imaizumi     My heart is pounding.

[22:28] Imaizumi     You're amazing, Sakamichi. [22:30] Sakamichi     Sorry I took so long. [22:33] Sakamichi     I did my best to keep up, [22:36] Sakamichi     but the rain gave me a lot of trouble. [22:39] Sakamichi     The course was badly flooded at     the bottom of the final climb.

[11:23] Sakamichi     But this is the critical moment when the     outcome of all our efforts will be decided. SIGN    Event & Team Vehicles Turn Left SIGN    Finish Line Up Ahead [11:33] Sakamichi     I didn't think it would happen now. [11:36] Imaizumi     Hurry up. Just go. [11:39] Imaizumi     Onoda! SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [11:49] (Flashback) Makishima     Don't be so irritable, Imaizumi. [11:52] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Onoda's slow to make decisions. [11:55] (Flashback) Imaizumi     It's fine in the mountains,     but on flats, he'd get left behind, [11:59] (Flashback) Imaizumi     like just now. [12:01] (Flashback) Makishima     Well, you know, he needs time. [12:05] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But he won the Inter-High. [12:08] (Flashback) Imaizumi     He needs to get stronger on     the flats so that next year— [12:11] (Flashback) Makishima     Don't be so impatient. [12:14] (Flashback) Makishima     Honestly, he is slow to make decisions. [12:17] (Flashback) Makishima     Unlike others, he needs     time to think about things. [12:23] (Flashback) Makishima     So when he's having trouble deciding,      wait for him, Imaizumi. [12:31] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Me? [12:34] (Flashback) Makishima     Don't worry. [12:35] (Flashback) Makishima     He'll find his answer and move forward. [12:40] (Flashback) Makishima     He's always [12:43] (Flashback) Makishima     straightforward and earnest. [12:51] Sakamichi     But I've reconsidered. [12:55] Sakamichi     I wondered why this had to happen now, [12:58] Sakamichi     but it's probably because it's such     a difficult and critical moment. [13:04] Sakamichi     This is exactly when these things happen. [13:08] Sakamichi     So I'm sorry, Imaizumi-kun. [13:11] Sakamichi     I can't finish first and     second with you anymore. [13:14] Imaizumi     Onoda... [13:16] Imaizumi     You were trying to follow my orders     to achieve a one-two finish [13:20] Imaizumi     in the final moments of the race? [13:23] Imaizumi     Seriously... [13:25] Imaizumi     Don't apologize. [13:27] Imaizumi     I already knew we couldn't     when my legs stopped moving. [13:35] Imaizumi     Don't hold back, Onoda. [13:37] Imaizumi     Those orders are now rescinded. [13:42] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun... [13:47] Imaizumi     The situation has changed. [13:49] Imaizumi     Your intuition is right.     We're really screwed. [13:53] Imaizumi     So these are your final orders for this race. [13:58] Imaizumi     Take our jersey to the finish line first. [14:03] Imaizumi     These orders come from everyone on the team! [14:06] Sakamichi     Got it! [14:11] Imaizumi     Onoda's pressure is rising. [14:25] Imaizumi     Go! [14:27] Imaizumi     Steel your resolve! Don't look back! [14:29] Imaizumi     Be strong, Onoda Sakamichi! [14:32] Onoda     Yes, sir! [14:40] Imaizumi     We're still in this. [14:42] Imaizumi     If you hadn't caught up... [14:45] Imaizumi     If I'd been alone, they would've     won the race for sure. [14:50] Imaizumi     But you apologized? Stupid. [14:54] Imaizumi     I should be thanking you, Onoda. [14:58] Imaizumi     You're always saying ridiculous things. [15:03] Imaizumi     And every time, your words save me. [15:06] Imaizumi     Thank you. To me, you're a Superman     with glasses who's always by my side. [15:15] Fan B     Sohoku is jumping ahead! [15:17] Fan C     He's climbing like crazy! [15:19] Fan B     That's #1, Onoda Sakamichi, the guy who     conquered Mt. Fuji at last year's Inter-High! [15:25] Fan C     What? That little guy is the     legendary climber, the Mountain King? [15:31] Sakamichi     I'm going now, Imaizumi-kun. [15:34] Sakamichi     Thank you for giving me a push. [15:37] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Be strong! [15:39] Sakamichi     Be strong, be strong... [15:43] Sakamichi     Be strong! [15:48] Sakamichi     I see Manami-kun. [15:50] Fan D     Wow. Sohoku's Onoda chased after Hakone     Academy's Manami when he jumped ahead. [15:57] Fan D     They're going to battle with     only two kilometers to go? [16:03] Fan E     Didn't they battle last year, too? [16:05] Fan D     Yeah, but it has more meaning now. [16:07] Fan D     It's been a year since then. [16:10] Fan D     In one year, Onoda's been     nicknamed the Mountain King. [16:14] Fan D     He's famous enough to attract     a crowd at hill climbs. [16:19] Fan D     Meanwhile, Manami has won every     hill climb he's raced in over the past year. [16:25] Fan D     In most cases, he set a new course record. [16:29] Fan D     Those who raced against him     say he climbed so lightly, [16:33] Fan D     they thought he'd fly up into the sky. [16:37] Fan D     Apparently, he instantly passes people     with a pleasant smile on his face. [16:43] Fan D     They call him... [16:45] Fan D     The winged noble of the     heavens, the Sky Prince. [16:49] Fan D     All those racing against him could     do was watch his back recede. [16:54] Manami     I knew you'd come to the front     of the Inter-High, Sakamichi-kun. [17:03] Sakamichi     Yeah, Manami-kun. [17:07] Manami     It didn't have to be at the very end. [17:11] Sakamichi     What? [17:13] Manami     If you get two meters closer     to me, we'll have to race. [17:21] Sakamichi     If I get two meters closer? [17:24] Manami     I know we promised we'd race, [17:28] Manami     that it'd be nice if we could go all-out     against each other at the Inter-High, [17:35] Manami     but it didn't have to be at     the very end of the third day. [17:43] Manami     It carries too much weight. [17:45] Manami     Any contest between us would     be a contest between our teams. [17:51] Sakamichi     He feels the same way I do. [17:55] Sakamichi     Manami-kun! [17:57] Manami     I was hoping for something more relaxed, [18:00] Manami     like a mountain result line     or competing for third place. [18:04] Sakamichi     Yeah. [18:06] Sakamichi     I'm glad. [18:08] Sakamichi     I understand that. I feel the same way. [18:18] Manami     But things don't always go as planned. [18:24] Manami     You didn't come in the     mountains on the first day. [18:30] Manami     We didn't get to race on the second day. [18:34] Manami     And today, on the third and final day, [18:37] Manami     we're both riding as the last     remaining members of our teams. [18:41] Manami     We finally have the opportunity     to race, and it's at the very end, [18:46] Manami     with two kilometers remaining     to the finish line. [18:50] Manami     But I believe...

[19:39] Manami     What's important is that we now have the     opportunity to race against each other. [19:47] Manami     And we should be grateful for the     opportunity and live life to the fullest. [19:53] Sakamichi     To the fullest... [19:55] Sakamichi     Yeah. [19:57] Manami     That's what it means to accept fate. [20:02] Sakamichi     Accept fate... [20:09] Fan F     Sohoku's accelerating! [20:11] Fan G     He's closing in on Hakone Academy! [20:14] Sakamichi     If I get two meters closer, we'll race. [20:17] Manami     That's right. If you catch up,      I'll have to pull ahead. [20:22] Manami     If you pass me, I'll have to pass you back. [20:25] Manami     You've steeled your resolve, Sakamichi-kun. [20:28] Manami     Very well. Let's race.

[20:51] Fan J     They were talking. [20:52] Fan I     Yeah. [20:53] Fan H     They were even laughing. [20:55] Fan I     But Sohoku got a determined look in     his eye when they reached the sign.

[21:32] Sakamichi     Manami-kun removed his gloves. [21:37] Manami     I can feel the wind of this race with all five senses and my prickling skin. [21:45] Manami     The tension is pleasant. [21:49] Manami     I won't hold back, Sakamichi-kun. [21:53] Sakamichi     He unzipped his jersey, too. [21:55] Manami     After all, it'd be a waste not     to go all-out against you. [22:03] Manami     Sakamichi-kun! [22:05] Sakamichi     Manami-kun! [22:07] Manami     We can never experience this moment again.

[00:43] (Flashback) Naruko     We lost to some weirdo named Daikanji     from Fujigawa while we were arguin'. [00:47] (Flashback) Naruko     That's the worst thing     that could've happened.

[09:26] Sakamichi     I wonder what has me so excited. [09:29] Sakamichi     Hope? Anxiety? [09:32] Sakamichi     Is it because I'm racing against Manami-kun?

[10:56] Manami     Not only that, but you passed me. [10:58] Manami     I'm so eager. [11:00] Manami     I'm so eager, I can't help it. [11:02] Manami     I keep shifting up gears. [11:05] Sakamichi     He caught up already! [11:07] Manami     Isn't climbing so much fun? [11:09] Sakamichi     He shifted up again. [11:11] Fan E     Hakone Academy's Manami instantly     passed him while smiling! [11:16] Fan F     So light, so skillful, so invigorating! [11:18] Fan F     He's so strong! [11:19] Fan E     That's Hakone Academy's ace climber,     Manami Sangaku the Sky Prince! [11:26] Sakamichi     Manami-kun is strong, but... [11:30] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Go! [11:31] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Steel your resolve! Don't look back! [11:33] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Be strong, Onoda Sakamichi! [11:37] Sakamichi     Yeah. [11:38] Sakamichi     I'm all right. I can keep going. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [11:50] Fan G     They've already passed     the two-kilometer mark. [11:53] Fan H     They're coming. [11:56] Toudou     There's no telling what will happen     in road races until the end. [12:01] Toudou     I can't believe the final battle on the     third day has come down to those two again [12:08] Toudou     or that I'd meet you at the last turn     before the finish line, Maki-chan. [12:17] Makishima     I can't believe you of all people     had to be here, Toudou. [12:20] Makishima     I can't get rid of you. [12:21] Toudou     It was fate that brought us together. [12:26] Makishima     But we just met last night. [12:29] Toudou     Do you believe in fate, Maki-chan? [12:32] Makishima     What? [12:32] Toudou     Naturally, I do. [12:35] Makishima     Hey... [12:35] Toudou     I believe my fate's tied to yours, Maki-chan. [12:38] Makishima     Let me speak. SIGN    Here SIGN    One Turn Earlier [12:40] Makishima     The highlight of any race will happen at the      finish line, right here, or one turn earlier. [12:47] Makishima     We had one-in-three odds of meeting.      It's not a big deal. [12:52] Toudou     Normally you're in England, but right now,      you're in the mountains of Japan [12:56] Toudou     watching a road race right next to me. [13:00] Toudou     That alone makes it a big deal, Maki-chan. [13:05] Makishima     What a warm welcome. [13:06] Toudou     Of course. [13:08] Toudou     Not only that, but the battle that will     determine the outcome of the Inter-High [13:12] Toudou     is between the four-eyes you trained and     Manami Sangaku, who I put my trust in. [13:20] Toudou     What is fate if not this? [13:23] Makishima     I wouldn't say I trained him. [13:26] Toudou     Two climbers joined our     teams two years after us. [13:31] Toudou     The two of them met and fought one another. [13:33] Toudou     They caught each other's attention     and were drawn together. [13:35] Toudou     They're just like us, don't you think? [13:38] Makishima     Are they? [13:39] Toudou     Not only that, but their riding     styles are complete opposites. [13:42] Makishima     I guess... [13:43] Toudou     They're almost here. They'll be     here in less than ten minutes. [13:47] Toudou     It's a mere ten minutes, but for them [13:52] Toudou     it'll feel like an eternity. [13:56] Makishima     Yeah, it's an eternity. [14:00] Makishima     Burdened with responsibility, [14:03] Makishima     they'll give all their strength to risk it all. [14:05] Makishima     Only those riding understand what it's like. [14:09] Toudou     And since they missed     their chance to determine [14:14] Toudou     a King of the Mountains on     Mt. Haruna on the second day, [14:16] Toudou     this battle will decide     who claims that title. [14:18] Makishima     Yeah, that's just in your head. [14:23] Toudou     No, that title can only be awarded to the     winner of a race between the two of them. [14:29] Toudou     Let's see this historical     event through together. [14:34] Makishima     Sure. [14:35] Makishima     I owe Onoda for watching our race yesterday. [14:44] Toudou     Yeah. [14:46] Toudou     Go, Manami. [14:48] Toudou     Be free. To the peak. [14:50] Makishima     Onoda, Toudou says I trained you. [14:56] Makishima     But did I really? [14:58] Makishima     All I did was ride ahead of you without a word. [15:02] (Flashback) Makishima     I can only speak through my riding. [15:08] (Flashback) Makishima     After all, if you're fastest      at your own style... [15:11] (Flashback) Makishima     nothing's cooler than that. [15:15] Makishima     But you always kept up,     and when I looked back... [15:21] Makishima     you were always happily smiling. [15:28] Makishima     Come, Sakamichi. [15:31] Makishima     Don't flinch. Don't be afraid. [15:33] Makishima     It's all right. I'm watching. [15:36] Makishima     So turn your pedals as hard as you can. [15:47] Manami     Go! [15:51] Manami     Can you keep up, Sakamichi-kun? [15:58] Manami     Good. It wouldn't be fun if it were too easy. [16:02] Manami     As it should be. [16:04] Manami     We wouldn't feel alive if we     acquired things too easily. [16:10] Sakamichi     Manami-kun's pressure rose again. [16:14] Manami     We're right on the edge. [16:17] Manami     We're in the very final stages of the race. [16:19] Manami     We're already above 2,000 meters     of elevation and the air is thin. [16:22] Manami     I'm out of breath. My heart rate is rising. [16:25] Manami     My body is screaming. [16:27] Manami     And I have an opponent to race against. [16:30] Sakamichi     He accelerated again. [16:31] Manami     But that's always true. [16:33] Manami     It's when we're right on the edge of our     limits and closest to death that we feel it. [16:42] Manami     I am alive. [16:43] Manami     I'll raise my heart rate even higher. [16:45] Manami     To the limit. [16:46] Manami     Go! [16:49] Sakamichi     He's accelerating again. [16:51] Fan     Sohoku's sticking to Hakone Academy! [16:54] Fan     No, look closely! He's doing his best to     keep up, but he's slowly falling behind! [16:58] Sakamichi     I'm slowing down. [17:02] Sakamichi     I'm struggling. The air is thin. [17:04] Sakamichi     No matter how much I inhale,     it doesn't feel like enough. [17:07] Sakamichi     My fingertips are going numb. [17:11] Sakamichi     But... SIGN    Inter-High Road Race [17:13] Announce     The third day will begin shortly. [17:17] (Flashback) Teshima     Today's finish line is at the top of a     mountain at 2,000 meters of elevation. [17:21] (Flashback) Teshima     At that elevation, the air will be thin. [17:23] (Flashback) Teshima     You'll hardly do anything     and you'll be out of breath. [17:26] (Flashback) Teshima     If you end up in an all-out battle up there,     your body will be screaming. [17:30] (Flashback) Teshima     Your limbs will go numb,     and you'll have trouble breathing. [17:35] (Flashback) Teshima     If you find yourself in a difficult situation,      say this out loud. [17:39] (Flashback) Teshima     It'll make it easier. [17:41] (Flashback) Teshima     "We're in the same boat." [17:44] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't be fooled by the pain. [17:46] (Flashback) Teshima     Everyone's riding under     the same circumstances. [17:49] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't look at your speedometer. [17:51] (Flashback) Teshima     Don't compare yourself to     your normal performance. [17:53] (Flashback) Teshima     Look only forward and let your     emotions take over your body. [17:56] (Flashback) Teshima     Rely only on your instincts and ride. [18:01] (Flashback) Teshima     I know you can do it. [18:03] (Flashback) Teshima     I know you can do it. [18:05] Sakamichi     We're in the same boat. [18:09] Sakamichi     Don't look at your speedometer. [18:11] Sakamichi     Don't compare yourself to     your normal performance. [18:13] Sakamichi     Listen to your feelings. [18:15] Sakamichi     I want to catch up to Manami-kun. [18:19] Sakamichi     Raise your cadence. [18:21] Sakamichi     I want to catch up. [18:22] Sakamichi     I want to pass him. [18:25] Fan     Sohoku zipped past Hakone Academy! [18:27] Fan     It's the Mountain King's high-cadence climb! [18:30] Manami     He's in front of me? [18:32] Sakamichi     I'm having an easier time turning my legs. [18:36] Sakamichi     Thank you, [18:38] Sakamichi     Teshima-san. [18:40] Fan     Sohoku's in the lead! [18:42] Fan     They've got 1.5 kilometers     left to the finish line! SIGN    Road Race Distance Remaining [18:46] Sakamichi     I passed him. I passed Manami-kun. [18:49] Sakamichi     My excitement is increasing. [18:51] Sakamichi     The finish line is getting closer. [18:55] Manami     He passed me again. [18:58] Manami     He's a tough opponent. [19:01] Manami     It's thrilling. [19:02] Sakamichi     I've got a small lead. [19:04] Sakamichi     Are things going my way? [19:07] Sakamichi     I should maintain this pace. [19:12] Manami     He's fast. His pace is incredible. [19:14] Manami     He was struggling until a     moment ago, but he recovered. [19:19] Manami     He's far stronger than he was last year. [19:23] Manami     After achieving victory once,     everyone relaxes mentally and physically. [19:31] Manami     Not only that, but the Inter-High     only happens once a year. [19:34] Manami     They lose the drive to continue     their long, hard training [19:37] Manami     to prepare for the next one. [19:40] Manami     They say a champion can't win. [19:43] Manami     The fulfillment of winning a major title     makes champions lose their motivation. [19:48] Manami     The jinx makes them unmotivated and unable     to seize opportunities during the race. [19:54] Manami     But you're riding ahead of me now [19:58] Manami     before the finish line at the Inter-High, [20:00] Manami     boldly wearing your #1 tag. [20:03] Manami     How did you motivate yourself over     the past year? Did you do it alone? [20:07] Manami     No, that's not right. [20:15] Manami     It's probably because you had teammates. [20:17] Manami     Come to think of it, you said     the same thing that day in May. [20:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? Me, the ace on the third and final day? [20:24] (Flashback) Manami     Yeah, I figured you might be. [20:27] (Flashback) Sakamichi     No, no, no. I can't do that. [20:30] (Flashback) Manami     You can't? [20:31] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Sohoku's goal is winning, of course. [20:36] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But, um... [20:38] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm just hoping someone on my team wins. [20:42] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It'd be nice if I could help them do it. [20:48] Manami     So that's what that meant. [20:50] Manami     You got stronger by helping     your teammates win. [20:56] Manami     You're riding powerfully on the     final day of the Inter-High [21:00] Manami     so you can take your team's     jersey to the finish line. [21:06] Sakamichi     Imaizumi-kun, Naruko-kun, Teshima-san,     Kaburagi-kun, Aoyagi-san... [21:12] Sakamichi     Koga-san, Kanzaki-san, Sugimoto-kun,     and the first-years... [21:18] Sakamichi     I'll take this jersey to the finish line. SIGN    Inter-High Road Race [21:26] Manami     Incredible. I could never do that. [21:29] Manami     But that's fine. Everyone rides differently. [21:34] Manami     I can't ride your way. [21:36] Manami     But you can't copy my style, either. [21:40] Manami     Right, Kuroda-san? [21:43] (Flashback) Kuroda     We've entered the final climb, Manami. [21:46] (Flashback) Kuroda     We're almost there. Sohoku should     be coming into view soon. [21:50] (Flashback) Kuroda     Until then, stay out of the wind     and preserve your strength. [21:54] (Flashback) Kuroda     Don't go until I tell you to. [21:56] (Flashback) Manami     Sure, but you're nearly at your limit. [22:01] (Flashback) Manami     The injury you suffered falling before     the finish line on the first day... [22:05] (Flashback) Manami     It hasn't healed yet.     It hurts pretty bad, doesn't it? [22:10] (Flashback) Kuroda     You noticed? [22:12] (Flashback) Manami     You've been avoiding pedaling     too hard with your right knee. [22:17] (Flashback) Kuroda     There's nothing I can do about that. [22:20] (Flashback) Kuroda     I decided I'd get you there. [22:25] (Flashback) Kuroda     And I've never been able to tolerate     things not going as planned. [22:32] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'm a proud elite athlete. [22:35] (Flashback) Kuroda     But I know there's a price I have     to pay for things to go as planned. [22:41] (Flashback) Kuroda     I'm determined to make this long shot work. [22:43] (Flashback) Kuroda     Of course, there will be a little pain. [22:46] Manami     It must hurt even more than I thought. [22:50] Manami     Could it be? [22:51] (Flashback) Manami     On second thought, let's switch. [22:52] (Flashback) Kuroda     Not yet. [22:53] (Flashback) Kuroda     Manami, hang tight. [22:56] (Flashback) Kuroda     I told you. I'll pull until     we catch up to Hakone Academy.

[00:17] Manami     Kuroda-san... [00:19] Kuroda     Are you bored, though? [00:21] Kuroda     In that case, let's reminisce about the past. [00:26] Kuroda     Last year, in one intra-squad tournament     to determine our Inter-High lineup, [00:32] Kuroda     I lost to you. [00:35] Kuroda     I was depressed. [00:37] Kuroda     I had no place to vent     my frustration and rage. [00:39] Kuroda     My head was a mess because I didn't     understand my own feelings. [00:47] Kuroda     I couldn't even speak to you. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal SIGN    Switches and Humming [02:29] Hakone A     It's not fair how fast Manami     is despite being so easygoing. [02:33] (Flashback) Hakone B     Honestly, it's impossible to hate him, too. [02:36] (Flashback) Hakone C     He's like a new generation of climber. [02:40] (Flashback) Hakone A     Yeah. [02:42] Kuroda     Every time someone praised you,      I became enraged [02:48] Kuroda     because I believed I'd be the one who'd     make a name for himself at the Inter-High. [02:55] Kuroda     I really don't get to race     at this year's Inter-High? [03:01] Kuroda     Until then, I'd been the best      at everything I did. [03:05] Kuroda     That may have been the moment     my pride truly came crashing down. [03:10] (Flashback) Kuroda     Damn it! [03:13] Kuroda     But time gradually smoothed      over my emotions. [03:18] Kuroda     By the time the Inter-High started, [03:20] Kuroda     I was thinking about what I needed     to do to participate next year. [03:27] Kuroda     Luck's not enough to race. [03:28] Kuroda     And on top of that, people think     of this team as champions. [03:31] Kuroda     Ultimately, I was naïve.     I wasn't good enough. [03:36] Kuroda     I've just gotta do it. [03:38] Kuroda     But I'd heard a rumor... SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club [03:42] (Flashback) Arakita     No matter how you look at it,      Kuroda should wear #6. [03:45] (Flashback) Arakita     He actually makes some sense,     and he climbs well during practice. [03:48] (Flashback) Arakita     Manami's just a first-year. [03:50] (Flashback) Arakita     It's too soon. [03:53] Kuroda     When I heard Arakita-san wanted     me instead of Manami to wear #6, [03:59] Kuroda     it made me really happy. [04:01] Kuroda     That's my one ray of hope. [04:04] Kuroda     Thank you, Arakita-san. [04:08] Kuroda     But shortly after,     I'd witness a shocking truth.

[04:52] Kuroda     He had a terrible attitude and a mouth     to match, but his skills were top class. [04:57] Kuroda     He saw through my elite mindset and taught     me that efficiency wasn't enough to win. [05:04] Kuroda     He was the only man I'd ever bowed to. [05:08] Kuroda     I assumed it was a forgone conclusion     that he'd win the Inter-High... [05:13] (Flashback) Arakita     Of course we won. [05:15] Kuroda     ...is what I thought he'd say.

[07:27] Kuroda     Captain Izumida's strengthening     program was simple. [07:31] Kuroda     We'd practice adequately     and enter more races.

[08:16] (Flashback) Izumida     I'm counting on you, Yuki. [08:19] Kuroda     Hardly anyone notable was participating     in that dull little race. [08:24] Kuroda     But Touichirou and I raced in earnest. [08:28] Kuroda     We swore to each other that we'd     achieve total victory in every race. [08:35] (Flashback) Kuroda     We'll show no overconfidence. [08:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     When we race, we go all-out.

[08:59] (Flashback) Rider E     Quit going on about Hakone Academy.     He's just another second-year racer like us. [09:04] (Flashback) Rider E     What I'm trying to say is... [09:07] (Flashback) Rider E     Don't get ahead of yourself, Hakone Academy! [09:09] (Flashback) Rider E     You lost at the Inter-High! [09:11] (Flashback) Kuroda     What? [09:12] (Flashback) Rider C     Don't make him angry. [09:13] (Flashback) Rider D     You'll ruin our chances of winning. [09:16] (Flashback) Rider E     It's the truth. These guys lost     to a first-year of all people. [09:20] (Flashback) Rider E     This year's lineup must've     been really pathetic, [09:23] (Flashback) Rider E     especially the third-years. [09:25] (Flashback) Rider E     Fukutomi? Shinkai? Toudou? [09:28] (Flashback) Rider E     Was there someone named Arakita, too? [09:30] (Flashback) Kuroda     Hey, asshole. [09:33] (Flashback) Rider E     You're resorting to violence? [09:35] (Flashback) Rider E     Hakone Academy guys are scary. [09:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     Take it back. [09:39] (Flashback) Kuroda     You can speak the truth,     but that last bit was wrong. [09:43] (Flashback) Kuroda     Take it back. [09:45] (Flashback) Kuroda     The third-years were strong. [09:47] (Flashback) Kuroda     They were far better than you can imagine. [09:51] (Flashback) Rider E     You're the one who grabbed     me first. No hard feelings. [09:57] (Flashback) Rider E     Oh, no. My handlebars hit him. [10:01] Kuroda     This jerk did that on purpose. [10:03] (Flashback) Rider E     Two years ago in middle school,     I was the captain of my basketball team. [10:10] (Flashback) Rider E     I lost because of Kuroda-kun     the last-minute substitute. [10:14] (Flashback) Rider E     My elbow still hurts. [10:17] (Flashback) Rider E     I doubt you remember, but do     you know what you said then? [10:23] (Flashback) Rider E     "You're so clumsy." [10:31] (Flashback) Rider E     Pick up the pace. We're holding this     lead all the way to the finish line. [10:35] (Flashback) Rider C     O-Okay. [10:37] Kuroda     After striking the ground,     I didn't move for a while. [10:43] Kuroda     I stayed there for about 30 seconds. [10:47] Kuroda     Even if I'd stayed down, either Touichirou     or Shino would probably win the race. [10:52] Kuroda     As far as the team was concerned,     there was no problem. [10:54] Kuroda     I could report his dangerous behavior later. [10:59] Kuroda     The thought crossed my mind. [11:02] Kuroda     But I... [11:05] Kuroda     Sorry, but I'm Kuroda Yukinari. [11:08] Kuroda     I'm not so serene that I'll stay     down after someone mocks Hakone Academy. [11:16] Kuroda     You just wait, jerk. You're not getting away. [11:19] Kuroda     I'll catch you. [11:23] Kuroda     I'll make you apologize for what you said. [11:28] (Flashback) Rider C     Is Kuroda-kun okay? [11:30] (Flashback) Rider D     Should we go back and apologize? [11:33] (Flashback) Rider E     What are you talking about?     Don't be so noncommittal. [11:35] (Flashback) Rider E     This is a race. In other words, a battle. [11:38] (Flashback) Rider E     Races are cutthroat survival games. [11:41] (Flashback) Rider E     Only one rider wins. [11:42] (Flashback) Rider E     If 80 riders race, then 79 of them lose. [11:45] (Flashback) Kuroda     Those are Fukutomi-san's words. [11:48] (Flashback) Rider E     Yeah, I'm surprised you knew that. [11:51] (Flashback) Rider E     I quoted something Hakone Academy's     Fukutomi said a long time ago. [11:53] (Flashback) Rider C     What? Did you say that? [11:55] (Flashback) Rider D     No. Who said that? [11:59] (Flashback) Rider E     Forget about Kuroda. He's gone. [12:01] (Flashback) Rider E     He got what he deserved. [12:03] (Flashback) Rider E     He elbowed me and called me clumsy. [12:07] (Flashback) Kuroda     Sorry about that. I apologize. [12:10] (Flashback) Kuroda     That was the old me. [12:11] (Flashback) Kuroda     Honestly, it sounds like something I'd say. [12:14] (Flashback) Rider E     What?! [12:16] (Flashback) Kuroda     But we're in the present now. Let's play fair. [12:20] (Flashback) Rider E     He caught up alone after getting injured? [12:24] (Flashback) Kuroda     Apologize. Then I'll forget what you did. [12:29] (Flashback) Rider E     S-Sorry for pushing you? [12:33] (Flashback) Kuroda     No, not that. Before that. [12:37] (Flashback) Kuroda     For mocking Hakone Academy. [12:41] Announce     Kuroda Yukinari has won     the sprint to the finish! [12:44] Announce     Hakone Academy wins! [12:48] Kuroda     I'm suffering from a bit of blood loss,     but the lack of blood kept me calm. [12:55] Kuroda     It's actually pretty all right. [12:58] (Flashback) Hakone A     Kuroda-san! [12:59] (Flashback) Hakone B     Are you all right? [13:00] (Flashback) Hakone C     Kuroda-san! [13:02] Rider E     Hakone Academy is incredible. [13:08] Kuroda     That event was the origin of     what I call my switch now. [13:13] Kuroda     I looked up to my seniors and     Hakone Academy itself, too. [13:19] Kuroda     They're all strong. [13:21] Kuroda     Fukutomi-san, Shinkai-san, Toudou-san,     and Arakita-san are beyond our reach. [13:27] Kuroda     They're gods. [13:29] Kuroda     But last year, they still didn't win. [13:33] Kuroda     So it's up to us to prove ourselves now that     we've been entrusted with the team. [13:39] Manami     Kuroda-san... [13:41] Kuroda     It's our pride that allows us     to continue being champions. [13:46] Kuroda     The Sohoku lead riders will     be coming into view soon. [13:48] Kuroda     You think "my injury hurts" or "my wound stings"      are adequate excuses, Manami? [13:56] Manami     But he injured himself trying     to win the first day. [14:00] Manami     Wouldn't that be a good enough reason? [14:03] (Flashback) Arakita     Don't make excuses. [14:06] Kuroda     You're right, Arakita-san. We have to win. [14:09] Kuroda     There's no point if we don't win. [14:13] Manami     He activated his switch.     He's accelerating again in his condition? [14:17] Manami     That's what it means to be Hakone Academy. [14:20] Kuroda     Let's go, Manami! [14:22] Kuroda     Let's catch up to Sohoku! [14:24] Manami     Yes, sir! [14:25] Kuroda     Flex, cat legs. [14:27] Kuroda     My injury still hurts, but my legs     had better not stop moving now. [14:34] Kuroda     I see Sohoku! [14:38] Kuroda     Sorry for dumping everything on     you at the end again, Manami. [14:44] Manami     It's fine. I don't mind. [14:47] Kuroda     You've grown. You truly are dependable. [14:55] Kuroda     Go on. You can go now. [14:58] Kuroda     There's nothing left for me to do. [15:01] Kuroda     All that's left is to watch     you fly up into the sky. [15:06] Kuroda     Fly. Don't worry about what's behind you. [15:10] Kuroda     Fly your way. Ride freely. [15:14] Kuroda     But if I can ask you for one     last thing before the end, [15:20] Kuroda     make me say my first and last     Inter-High in my third year [15:30] Kuroda     ended the best way possible! [15:32] Kuroda     Yes, sir! [15:39] Manami     Kuroda-san, thank you. [15:42] Manami     We're 1,400 meters from the finish line. [15:47] Manami     It's time to fly. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [15:59] Fan D     The lead riders are here! [16:01] Fan E     Sohoku's in front! He pulled     ahead of Hakone Academy! [16:04] Fan E     He's 20—no, 30 meters ahead! [16:09] Sakamichi     I'm in the lead. I'm currently     closest to the finish line. [16:16] Sakamichi     What's this? [16:17] Sakamichi     The moment I started thinking about     the finish line, I became nervous. [16:21] Sakamichi     My head feels fuzzy. My legs feel slow. [16:26] Sakamichi     I'm thinking about being in front?      About the finish line? [16:30] Sakamichi     No, don't. It's not over yet. [16:33] Sakamichi     Don't. Calm down. [16:35] Sakamichi     Calm down, calm down. [16:38] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Go! [16:40] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Steel your resolve! Don't look back!

[17:01] Manami     He recovered again. [17:02] Manami     His mind wavered for a moment.     It disrupted his pace. [17:08] Manami     He's being overwhelmed by the     pressure of riding at the front. [17:13] Manami     You have an advantage riding at the front, [17:14] Manami     but it's not as though you have no enemies. [17:17] Manami     The moment you realize you might win     while riding alone and focus on victory, [17:23] Manami     the fear of making a mistake     becomes too strong, [17:27] Manami     and you make mistakes     you normally wouldn't. [17:33] Manami     That pressure comes from something small. [17:37] Manami     It enters the smallest of gaps in your mind. [17:40] Manami     The bigger the title, the more     you feel like you have to win, [17:46] Manami     and the more it sneaks through     gaps to take over your mind [17:49] Manami     and paralyze your body. [17:52] Manami     You become your own enemy. [17:54] Manami     You panic as you try to     move your immobile body [17:57] Manami     and become unable to move as you normally do. [18:01] Manami     People call it the swamp before victory. [18:05] Manami     But you just pushed it aside. [18:08] Manami     You grabbed your handlebars and     stopped your hands from shaking. [18:11] Manami     You wiped it away by dancing     with all your might. [18:18] Sakamichi     I've calmed down. [18:20] Sakamichi     I'm okay. I'm all right. [18:23] Sakamichi     I can keep going. [18:24] Sakamichi     I'll keep going. [18:28] Manami     He's returned to his earlier pace. [18:30] Manami     You're amazing, Sakamichi-kun. [18:36] Manami     Despite saying you couldn't do anything alone, [18:39] Manami     you're strong when others     are depending on you. [18:41] Fan H     1,300 meters to go! [18:43] Fan I     Keep going, Mountain King! [18:45] Fans     Mountain King! Mountain King! Mountain King! [18:52] Manami     The wind's picking up. [18:55] Manami     You're strong, but unfortunately,     your steady advance is about to end. [19:01] Manami     Once we're through the next turn,     the crosswind blowing across these highlands... [19:09] Manami     will become a tailwind. [19:13] Manami     Too slow. Go! [19:18] Sakamichi     Manami-kun... [19:20] Sakamichi     It's a good thing you noticed,     but you were a little too late. [19:24] Sakamichi     This time I'll be going ahead, Sakamichi-kun. [19:28] Fan J     Hakone Academy instantly passed Sohoku! [19:30] Fan K     Seriously? Using that gust? [19:33] Fan L     He read the direction of the wind! [19:35] Fan M     That's Manami Sangaku, the Sky Prince! [19:39] Fan M     With 1,200 meters to go,     Hakone Academy is in the lead! [19:43] Manami     Are you keeping up, Sakamichi-kun? [19:46] Manami     In the hill climbs I've raced in until now, [19:49] Manami     when I accelerate like this     before the finish line, [19:51] Manami     most of my opponents hang     their heads and slow down. [19:54] Manami     But what about you? [19:58] Fan     Don't give up! [20:00] Fan     What's wrong, Mountain King? [20:02] Fan     Raise your head! [20:03] Sakamichi     It's no use. [20:05] Sakamichi     He's strong. Manami-kun is incredible. [20:10] Fan N     You've got this! He's pulling way ahead! [20:13] Fan O     No, wait. The Mountain King      is saying something. [20:18] Sakamichi     Lovely chance pancake girl... [20:23] Fan N     What? Something about a chance? [20:27] Fan N     No... [20:28] Sakamichi     Even with a spell to make you bigger, [20:31] Fan N     It's got a rhythm. [20:34] Sakamichi     you're still my princess! [20:37] Sakamichi     You are who you are! [20:40] Fan N     He's singing. [20:44] Sakamichi     It's no use. [20:45] Sakamichi     Even though he passed me, watching     Manami-kun's incredible riding makes [20:50] Sakamichi     "Love Hime-Hime Pancake Girl"     is playing endlessly in my head. [20:55] Sakamichi     Princess, Princess! [20:57] Sakamichi     Princess! I love, love, love you! [20:59] Sakamichi     Princess! Princess! [21:00] Sakamichi     Twinkle, twinkle! [21:02] Fan O     I've heard about this. [21:04] Fan O     When Sohoku's Mountain King starts singing     during races, his cadence increases. [21:10] Fan O     It makes him faster. [21:11] Fan N     What?! [21:12] Sakamichi     You're still my princess! [21:16] Sakamichi     You are who you are! [21:19] Manami     He's closing in right behind me?      While smiling, no less? [21:26] Manami     Amazing. [21:27] Manami     I haven't felt this in a while. [21:31] Manami     You're making this thrilling, aren't you? [21:33] Manami     You truly are special. [21:35] Fan P     Hakone Academy accelerated again! [21:37] Fan Q     He's away from Sohoku! [21:40] Sakamichi     His acceleration is incredible. [21:42] Sakamichi     Manami-kun is so skilled. [21:45] Sakamichi     Even with a spell to make you bigger, [21:50] Sakamichi     you're still my princess! [21:52] Sakamichi     You are who you are! [21:56] Sakamichi     Manami-kun, you're amazing.     You're so amazing, Manami-kun. [22:01] Manami     So are you. [22:04] Fan R     The Mountain King caught up to Manami! [22:06] Fan S     Wh-What's with this battle? It's crazy! [22:10] Fan T     Neither one's giving any ground! [22:14] Manami     I see it. [22:16] Manami     The red upside-down triangle     flag with the number one. [22:20] Manami     It means we're one kilometer     from the finish line. [22:23] Manami     Let's settle this. [22:26] Manami     The finish line is one kilometer ahead of us. [22:32] Manami     I wonder why?

[07:58] (Flashback) Class Rep     O-Oh, really? Huh. [08:01] Class Rep     I should change the subject. [08:03] (Flashback) Class Rep     Um... [08:05] Class Rep     "I went to see the Inter-High." No, not that. [08:08] Class Rep     "It was close. Too bad you placed     second." Definitely not that. [08:11] Class Rep     I shouldn't mention the Inter-High. [08:15] (Flashback) Class Rep     I know. Have you done your summer work... [08:18] (Flashback) Manami     You came to the Inter-High. [08:21] (Flashback) Class Rep     ...sheets? [08:22] (Flashback) Manami     I heard you. [08:25] (Flashback) Manami     Thanks. [08:28] (Flashback) Class Rep     You're welcome. I'm surprised     you could hear me. [08:33] (Flashback) Manami     Yeah. I could hear everyone's voices     and my teammates' cheers of "go," [08:41] (Flashback) Manami     "You can do it," and "Manami!" [08:44] (Flashback) Manami     But I couldn't answer them. [08:49] (Flashback) Manami     I had to answer them. I'm an idiot. [08:54] (Flashback) Manami     I finally understand the weight of what     Fukutomi-san, Arakita-san, Toudou-san, [09:00] (Flashback) Manami     Shinkai-san, and Izumida-san     were trying to do after I lost. [09:14] (Flashback) Class Rep     Cheer up. This isn't like you. [09:17] (Flashback) Class Rep     You forget everything, from your     homework to your worksheets. [09:22] (Flashback) Class Rep     Just forget about all that unpleasantness. [09:26] (Flashback) Manami     Thanks, class rep. But I can't cheer up. [09:33] (Flashback) Manami     I've cried so many times since     the race, but nothing changes. [09:44] (Flashback) Manami     My senior Toudou-san told me something. [09:48] (Flashback) Toudou     It's not your fault. [09:50] (Flashback) Toudou     Don't feel bad about the outcome. [09:52] (Flashback) Toudou     But when your final loss is the     team's loss, we blame ourselves. [09:58] (Flashback) Toudou     Though the pain will tear you apart,     it can't be helped. Not for a while. [10:05] (Flashback) Toudou     It takes time. [10:07] (Flashback) Toudou     You just have to endure     it until you can face it. [10:12] Class Rep     There was nothing I could say     to him as he sadly smiled. [10:24] Class Rep     It must've really come as a shock to him. [10:27] Class Rep     Of course it did.     What should I have said to him? [10:31] Class Rep     I don't know. Sangaku's always so carefree. [10:36] Class Rep     I've never really seen him depressed before. [10:39] Class Rep     Should I take him cycling like I used to? No. [10:45] (Flashback) Class Rep     I know, games!     Sangaku plays video games. [10:50] (Flashback) Class Rep     Here. [10:52] (Flashback) Class Rep     Try this. They said on TV that     games are a good distraction. [10:57] Class Rep     And this thing was expensive.     You'd better play it. [11:01] (Flashback) Manami     How unusual. [11:03] (Flashback) Manami     You're giving me a gift? [11:06] (Flashback) Class Rep     No... Well, yes. [11:10] (Flashback) Class Rep     But don't read into it too much. [11:13] (Flashback) Manami     Thanks. [11:15] (Flashback) Class Rep     Don't play too much. [11:17] (Flashback) Class Rep     You'd better do your homework, too. [11:19] (Flashback) Manami     I know. [11:22] (Flashback) Manami     Don't worry. I won't. [11:28] Class Rep     By the time summer ended, [11:29] Class Rep     he was attending practice every day and      seemed to be cheerfully riding his bike. [11:35] (Flashback) Manami     Sorry. [11:37] Teacher     Manami. [11:38] Class Rep     He even showed up late when     the new semester started. [11:40] (Flashback) Class Rep     Jeez! [11:43] Class Rep     I was relieved to see he was     back to his normal self. [11:48] Class Rep     But that relief didn't last long. [11:53] Class Rep     After that, Sangaku collapsed several     times during practice and intrateam races. [11:58] (Flashback) Class Rep     Excuse me. [12:00] Class Rep     He was never seriously injured,     and every time I showed up... [12:04] (Flashback) Manami     I fell again. I'm so clumsy. [12:09] Class Rep     He always brushed it off. [12:12] Manami     I have to win. [12:13] Manami     I have to win every team and official race. [12:19] Manami     I have to become even stronger. [12:23] (Flashback) Teammate A     Hey, it's been two hours. [12:25] (Flashback) Teammate B     If you don't stop,     you'll collapse again, Manami. [12:29] (Flashback) Manami     I'm fine. [12:30] (Flashback) Teammate A     But... [12:31] (Flashback) Manami     I'm fine. [12:36] Class Rep     He's not back to normal at all. [12:39] Class Rep     I've never seen Sangaku     scowl like that before. [12:42] (Flashback) Toudou     Do you know Manami? [12:46] (Flashback) Toudou     You've been coming to watch a lot recently. [12:48] (Flashback) Class Rep     Yes, I'm sorry. I promise     I won't get in the way. [12:53] (Flashback) Toudou     He's put it all on himself. [12:55] (Flashback) Toudou     No, we put it on him. [13:00] (Flashback) Toudou     He's currently inside a long tunnel. [13:04] (Flashback) Toudou     Unfortunately, he won't be back for a while. [13:06] (Flashback) Touduo     Not until he realizes a     certain truth for himself. [13:12] (Flashback) Class Rep     A certain truth? SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [13:23] (Flashback) Class Rep     Could you please tell Sangaku about     that truth right this instant? [13:28] (Flashback) Toudou     We've already told him numerous times. [13:31] (Flashback) Toudou     Me, Fuku, and Shinkai. [13:35] (Flashback) Toudou     But listening and understanding     are different things. [13:38] (Flashback) Toudou     It takes days for the things we've heard     to pass through our bodies and sink in. [13:43] (Flashback) Toudou     I also want to take away Manami's pain. [13:49] (Flashback) Toudou     The legendary Hakone Academy bicycle     racing team lost at the Inter-High. SIGN    Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Team [13:57] (Flashback) Toudou     Not only that, but he was our final rider. [14:00] (Flashback) Toudou     And it's not a burden he could carry     as a scrawny little first-year. [14:13] (Flashback) Teammate A     Manami! [14:14] (Flashback) Teammate B     Are you okay? [14:19] (Flashback) Class Rep     Toudou-san... [14:21] (Flashback) Class Rep     You're him, right? The third-year. [14:25] (Flashback) Class Rep     There's... There's nothing I can do for him. [14:30] (Flashback) Class Rep     I attended the race,     but I couldn't say anything. [14:35] (Flashback) Class Rep     I can't think of anything     clever to say, and frankly, [14:38] (Flashback) Class Rep     I don't know much about bicycles. [14:41] (Flashback) Class Rep     But... [14:42] (Flashback) Class Rep     But is there anything I can do? [14:48] (Flashback) Toudou     Listen to him. [14:50] (Flashback) Class Rep     What? [14:51] (Flashback) Toudou     You don't have to respond. [14:53] (Flashback) Toudou     You can just nod along to his idle chitchat. [15:01] (Flashback) Class Rep     Okay. [15:04] Class Rep     After that, I earnestly listened     to everything Sangaku said. [15:09] (Flashback) Manami     My teammate put his jersey in the wash     with an energy bar in the pocket. [15:13] (Flashback) Class Rep     Uh-huh. And? [15:15] (Flashback) Manami     What? That's the whole story. [15:17] (Flashback) Class Rep     That's it? There must be more. [15:19] (Flashback) Class Rep     Like it got on the other     laundry or attracted birds. [15:23] (Flashback) Manami     But he didn't say what happened after that. [15:26] Class Rep     Oh, no. I'm supposed to be listening. [15:29] Class Rep     I took his story too seriously. [15:31] (Flashback) Manami     You know, class rep... [15:32] (Flashback) Class Rep     Yes? [15:33] (Flashback) Manami     You seem awfully interested in energy bars. [15:35] (Flashback) Class Rep     Yes. [15:36] (Flashback) Manami     Do you want one? [15:37] (Flashback) Class Rep     Yes. [15:42] Class Rep     At school... [15:43] (Flashback) Manami     Class rep. [15:46] (Flashback) Manami     Are you busy? [15:47] (Flashback) Class Rep     Actually, I... [15:49] (Flashback) Class Rep     Not at all. [15:51] (Flashback) Manami     What do you think of the new cafeteria menu? [15:53] Class Rep     He wants to talk about that? [15:55] (Flashback) Class Rep     Well... [15:56] Class Rep     Do we have to talk about that right now? [15:59] Class Rep     While standing, no less? [16:01] (Flashback) Manami     I preferred the old one. [16:03] (Flashback) Class Rep     Y-Yeah... [16:06] Manami     Om nom nom nom... [16:08] Class Rep     What is he saying? [16:11] (Flashback) Class Rep     U-Uh, yeah. [16:14] Class Rep     The seasons changed,     and one day, out of nowhere... [16:19] (Flashback) Manami     Class rep... [16:21] (Flashback) Manami     Are you free now? [16:23] (Flashback) Class Rep     Yeah, sure. [16:26] (Flashback) Manami     I found it. [16:30] (Flashback) Manami     All of a sudden, while riding my bike yesterday. [16:34] (Flashback) Manami     I found a kind of—how can I explain it? [16:39] (Flashback) Manami     I arrived at a certain truth. [16:43] Class Rep     They were the words Toudou-san     had told me that day. [16:48] (Flashback) Toudou     The truth is very simple. [16:52] (Flashback) Toudou     When people fail, they immediately     try to make up for it. [16:56] (Flashback) Toudou     They're desperate to wipe away their failure. [16:59] (Flashback) Toudou     They rush to produce results. [17:02] (Flashback) Toudou     But as long as they're     doing that, they can't. [17:06] (Flashback) Toudou     He'll fail again. [17:09] (Flashback) Toudou     Once he's tried to his heart's content, [17:12] (Flashback) Toudou     given everything he has     physically and emotionally, [17:15] (Flashback) Toudou     and is finally empty, he'll realize it. [17:19] (Flashback) Manami     In the end, that's how it is. [17:25] Class Rep     After that day, Sangaku changed,      little by little. [17:30] (Flashback) Teammate A     Manami placed third in the recent team race. [17:33] (Flashback) Teammate B     That's good. He's returning to form. [17:38] Class Rep     When he rode with the third-years     in their sendoff race... [17:44] Class Rep     When he met Toudou-san on a snowy day and     raced against someone on some road... [17:52] Class Rep     He seemed happy when he told me about it. [17:56] Class Rep     Sangaku had cheered up. [17:59] Class Rep     He'd exited the long tunnel and returned. [18:05] Class Rep     And in March, [18:08] Class Rep     when Sangaku showed up on time for     once to his seniors' graduation, [18:12] Class Rep     he was radiant. [18:22] Class Rep     Sangaku is back.     He's overflowing with confidence... [18:27] (Flashback) Manami     I forgot to sign the participation agreement,      so my victory was invalidated. [18:33] (Flashback) Teammate A     What? [18:34] (Flashback) Teammate B     Seriously? [18:35] Class Rep     ...and wearing that dopey smile. [18:39] Class Rep     And now, you've overcome numerous     struggles on your way here. [18:46] Class Rep     To the finish line of the     final day of the Inter-High. [18:51] Class Rep     Sangaku, do you remember     what you said that day? [18:56] (Flashback) Manami     In the end, that's how it is. [18:59] (Flashback) Manami     It's simple. [19:03] (Flashback) Manami     A loss at the Inter-High can only     be made up for at the Inter-High. [19:09] Class Rep     Such powerful words. [19:12] Teammate A     The lead riders are coming! [19:15] Class Rep     Sangaku is surely here at this Inter-High     to make those words reality. [19:24] Class Rep     There's nothing I can do.     There's nothing I can say. [19:27] Class Rep     So I'll cheer my heart out. [19:31] Class Rep     That's why I came here. [19:34] Class Rep     Sangaku! [19:36] Fan A     Go! [19:37] Fan B     Hakone Academy! [19:38] Fan C     Pedal hard! [19:40] Class Rep     What? No way. [19:41] Class Rep     Everyone else is so loud. My     voice won't reach him like this. [19:45] Fan A     The two lead riders are     the same as last year! [19:48] Fan B     Will one get revenge,     or will the other win again? [19:50] Fan C     This is so exciting! [19:53] Class Rep     What should I do? [19:54] Class Rep     Sangaku will be here soon. [19:56] Class Rep     I'm too small. He won't see me. [19:58] Class Rep     He won't hear me. [20:04] Class Rep     No, Sangaku is fighting now. [20:08] Class Rep     He's fighting all alone to achieve     what he's wanted all year. [20:12] Class Rep     All I need to do is cheer for him. [20:16] Class Rep     It doesn't matter if he doesn't hear me. [20:18] Class Rep     It doesn't matter if he doesn't see me. [20:19] Class Rep     I'll yell as loud as I can. [20:22] Class Rep     I'll cheer for you. I'll tell you... [20:25] Class Rep     That's odd. They're the same     words I said last year. [20:29] Class Rep     Please win, Sangaku! [20:35] Class Rep     What? Did Sangaku just nod slightly? [20:42] Manami     The class rep was here. [20:45] Manami     I must be amazing. I picked out her     voice through all these cheers. [20:50] Manami     I wonder why. [20:53] Manami     It must be because she listened     to me so much over the past year. [20:59] Manami     Win? Yeah, of course. [21:03] Manami     That's why I'm here. [21:06] Fan D     Hakone Academy accelerated! [21:07] Fan E     He's got a slight lead! [21:09] Sakamichi Mom     He's here. It's my son.

[21:46] Sakamichi     I just heard a voice that     sounded like my mom's. [21:49] Sakamichi     I said "yeah" without thinking about it. [21:52] (Flashback) Sakamichi Mom     Go after it! [21:53] Sakamichi     My mom used to say that to me all the time. [21:58] (Flashback) Sakamichi Mom     Come on. Try harder to go after it. [22:01] (Flashback) Young Sakamichi     But, Mom... [22:03] (Flashback) Sakamichi Mom     Go get it yourself. [22:07] (Flashback) Young Sakamichi     I can't. There are bugs in there. [22:09] (Flashback) Sakamichi Mom     You'll be fine. Go on. [22:13] Sakamichi     I was scared of tall grass back then. [22:15] Sakamichi     Places where anything might jump out     at you were like alien worlds to me.

[22:31] Sakamichi     I can enter the tall grass alone. [22:36] Sakamichi     I'm riding this road alone. [22:40] Sakamichi     I'm even chasing after what's in front of me. [22:43] Sakamichi     Do you know why? [22:46] Sakamichi     Because my seniors, my juniors, and friends [22:50] Sakamichi     have given me so much strength and courage.

[02:31] Arakita     If I had to predict a winner,     I'd say Manami's way more likely to win. [02:40] Arakita     He struggled this past year. [02:43] Arakita     At first, I called him an oddball     and opposed him joining the team, [02:47] Arakita     but he was strong. [02:49] Arakita     And losing made him even stronger. [02:53] Arakita     Toudou said the same thing. [02:57] Arakita     The look in his eyes has changed. [03:00] Arakita     So has his smell. [03:01] Arakita     It's like his focus has improved. [03:05] Arakita     He jokes around, but his     smell has gotten stronger. [03:09] Arakita     Onoda-chan is a hard worker. [03:11] Arakita     I'm sure he worked hard this past year. [03:14] Arakita     But it takes a certain kind of person to     cross the finish line at the peak first. [03:21] Arakita     In his first year, he seized the champion's     glory without understanding anything. [03:26] Arakita     Then he won at Minegayama, too. [03:29] Arakita     Someone who's been having such a     cheerful, fun time can't— [03:33] Arakita     Sorry, Kinjou. I'm not trying to put him down.

[03:46] Fan E     He's fallen behind because he can't     keep up with Manami's increased pace! [03:52] Arakita     They're closing in on the 500-meter mark. [03:55] Arakita     If one of them falls more     than ten meters behind, [03:59] Arakita     then whoever's in front will win. [04:04] Arakita     In a one-on-one with 500 meters     to go, they'll be out of stamina. [04:08] Arakita     It'll come down to willpower. [04:10] Arakita     And willpower is the product of everything     you've experienced until now. [04:14] Arakita     Failure. Frustration. Feelings you      can't do anything about. [04:19] Arakita     They prop you up. [04:21] Arakita     And guys who don't have that... [04:24] Arakita     Honestly, they can't win. [04:27] Sakamichi     He got ahead of me.

[04:45] Fan E     They're 600 meters from the finish line! [04:49] Sakamichi     A gap at this distance is likely fatal! [04:54] Kinjou     "Feelings you can't do anything about," huh? [04:57] Kinjou     If that's the condition for surviving     the battle before the finish line, [05:02] Kinjou     then Onoda is worthy, too. [05:08] Kinjou     Did you think Onoda's growth     has been smooth and steady? [05:12] Arakita     What? You mean it hasn't? [05:17] Arakita     Are you talking about     the pressure of winning? [05:19] Kinjou     No, not that. [05:22] Kinjou     I doubt anyone outside the team would know. [05:25] Kinjou     At nearly the same time he won the     Inter-High, he lost something important. [05:33] Kinjou     The man he admired from the bottom of his heart, [05:37] Kinjou     who rode with him at the Inter-High     and always offered advice...

[07:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     What's the matter? [07:06] (Flashback) Makishima     I've been meaning to tell you something. [07:09] (Flashback) Makishima     It's important, Kinjou. [07:14] (Flashback) Makishima     I know this isn't the time     or place for this, but... [07:21] (Flashback) Makishima     Sorry. I never got the chance to tell you. [07:24] (Flashback) Makishima     You and Tadokoro did a lot for me. [07:27] (Flashback) Makishima     We rode hard together for three years. [07:31] (Flashback) Makishima     You supported me through difficult practices. [07:34] (Flashback) Makishima     Winning the Inter-High felt amazing. [07:38] (Flashback) Makishima     I've told the teachers. [07:41] (Flashback) Makishima     They're letting me submit reports instead     of attending class so I can graduate. [07:50] (Flashback) Makishima     I'm going to England in September. [07:55] (Flashback) Makishima     I've submitted my club resignation. [07:57] (Flashback) Makishima     I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. [08:02] Sakamichi     Lovely chance pancake girl. [08:08] Sakamichi     You're still my princess! [08:09] Imaizumi     He's in a good mood. [08:11] Sakamichi     You are who you are! [08:11] Naruko     He's in an exceptionally good mood. [08:12] Sakamichi     Love Hime fight! [08:14] (Flashback) Naruko     You're in a real good mood, Onoda-kun. [08:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? What? You could tell? [08:18] (Flashback) Imaizumi     Yeah, it's obvious. [08:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'm just so happy because     one of my dreams came true. [08:27] Imaizumi     His dream? Is he talking about the other day? [08:30] Naruko     Winnin' the Inter-High? [08:32] (Flashback) Sakamichi     We all went to Akiba together. [08:35] Both     That's what he meant? [08:37] (Flashback) Sakamichi**     I got to visit Akiba with     everyone and thank all of you. [08:43] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I have no regrets. [08:45] (Flashback) Naruko     There must be somethin' you still wanna do. [08:48] (Flashback) Imaizumi     What about winning the Inter-High? [08:51] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That was fun. [08:55] (Flashback) Sakamichi     It's always been my dream... [08:59] (Flashback) Sakamichi     to go to Akiba with my friends. [09:03] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You know, because I always went there alone. [09:08] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I guess that sounds like you. [09:11] (Flashback) Naruko     Yeah, you are who you are. [09:14] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Do you think the seniors will     go to Akiba with me again? [09:17] (Flashback) Naruko     I hate to say this, Onoda-kun... [09:20] (Flashback) Imaizumi     But I seriously doubt it. [09:22] (Flashback) Naruko     Don't come out and say it, hotshot! [09:24] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Even Makishima-san? [09:25] (Flashback) Imaizumi     He's the hardest sell. [09:26] (Flashback) Naruko     Watch it, hotshot! [09:27] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? What? [09:29] (Flashback) Naruko     You didn't hear that, Onoda-kun? [09:32] (Flashback) Tadokoro     What? Why? [09:34] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Makishima's going to England?      No one told me anything about that! [09:38] (Flashback) Kinjou     No one told me, either. [09:41] (Flashback) Kinjou     He just told me in the hallway, too. [09:43] (Flashback) Makishima     I'm sorry, Kinjou. Really. [09:48] (Flashback) Makishima     Tell Tadokorocchi for me. [09:51] (Flashback) Makishima     I won't be able to attend     graduation with you guys. [09:58] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Makishima-san! [10:02] (Flashback) Makishima     Onoda, I'm on my way up Minegayama. [10:07] (Flashback) Makishima     Want to join me? [10:14] (Flashback) Makishima     Hey, Sakamichi! [10:15] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir! [10:19] (Flashback) Makishima     Do you enjoy riding your bike? [10:22] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes! [10:25] (Flashback) Makishima     We're counting on you to     carry our Sohoku, Sakamichi. [10:40] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Good evening. What are the     two of you doing here? [10:45] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I just went for a ride with Makishima-san. [10:49] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He invited me. [10:50] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Makishima-san said he was     heading straight home. [10:56] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He's amazing, isn't he? [10:59] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He's so fast and cool. [11:01] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He doesn't like it when I call him cool, [11:04] (Flashback) Sakamichi     but today his back looked     exceptionally awe-inspiring. [11:11] (Flashback) Sakamichi     And he said something really nice, too. [11:17] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, I'm sorry for rambling on. [11:20] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Were you waiting for someone? [11:22] (Flashback) Tadokoro     Yeah, you. [11:24] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [11:26] (Flashback) Kinjou     Onoda, we need to talk. [11:29] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Did I do something? [11:32] (Flashback) Kinjou     It's not about you. It's about Makishima. [11:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What is it? Will Makishima-san     be racing again? [11:40] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Do I get to race with him? [11:44] (Flashback) Sakamichi     There's so much I still     want to learn from him. [11:49] (Flashback) Kinjou     Try to stay calm, Onoda. [11:54] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [11:58] (Flashback) Sakamichi     England? You mean he's not coming back? [12:05] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Not to practice, or even school? [12:09] (Flashback) Kinjou     Makishima is quitting the team today. [12:14] Kinjou     It even hurt us to see how dispirited     and lifeless Onoda became. [12:22] Kinjou     He forced himself through     practice and often fell. [12:28] Kinjou     He began staring off into     space from time to time. [12:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     No, I shouldn't be like this. [12:39] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I promised I'd make Sohoku stronger, but... [12:47] (Flashback) Kinjou     Teshima. [12:50] (Flashback) Teshima     Yes, sir. [12:51] (Flashback) Kinjou     I've retired from the team     and left it in your hands. [12:55] (Flashback) Kinjou     I'm in no position to tell you what to do. [12:58] (Flashback) Kinjou     But I realized there was one     thing I forgot to do as captain. [13:05] (Flashback) Kinjou     Could I borrow Onoda tomorrow? [13:09] (Flashback) Teshima     Yes, sir. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [13:20] (Flashback) Sakamichi     U-Um, where are we going today? [13:24] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Teshima-san said I'd be     training directly under you. [13:30] (Flashback) Kinjou     I thought we could check out the beach today. [13:33] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That sounds incredibly difficult. [13:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Wait, what? The beach? [13:43] (Flashback) Sakamichi     We actually came to the beach. [13:45] (Flashback) Kinjou     Onoda, do you think you could     hit that buoy with a rock? [13:49] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? A rock? [13:52] (Flashback) Kinjou     When I was in middle school,     I had a senior I looked up to. [14:00] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You had a senior? [14:04] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, I'm sorry. [14:06] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You've been my senior ever     since I started high school, [14:09] (Flashback) Sakamichi     so I was just surprised     you ever had one, too. [14:14] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I mean, of course you did. [14:17] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You have seniors, too. [14:19] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Your senior, huh? I can't imagine     what that would be like. [14:25] (Flashback) Kinjou     In middle school, I was on     a local shop's club team. [14:29] (Flashback) Kinjou     I practiced alongside adults. [14:32] (Flashback) Kinjou     Not that it was an especially     high-level team. [14:37] (Flashback) Kinjou     But Koseki-san was there. [14:40] (Flashback) Kinjou     He was a former pro. [14:42] (Flashback) Kinjou     He was a strict but kind and awesome guy. [14:46] (Flashback) Kinjou     I copied his riding style,     his clothes, and even his bike brand. [14:50] (Flashback) Sakamichi     You looked up to him? [14:54] (Flashback) Sakamichi     He must've been incredible. [14:56] (Flashback) Kinjou     Yeah. Every time he told me,     "Good job, Shingo," I was overjoyed. [15:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     It made me feel like I'd become     a hundred times stronger. [15:08] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I know that feeling. [15:10] (Flashback) Sakamichi     When Makishima-san praised me, I... [15:16] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I felt the same way. [15:18] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, I'm all right. [15:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I promised I'd do my best to     become stronger, so I... [15:30] (Flashback) Kinjou     But in the fall of my second     year of middle school, [15:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     Koseki-san moved away      because of his job. [15:36] (Flashback) Kinjou     He was suddenly so far away. [15:43] (Flashback) Kinjou     I used to come here with     Koseki-san during practice [15:48] (Flashback) Kinjou     and try to hit that buoy with rocks. [15:56] (Flashback) Sakamichi     A-Amazing, Kinjou-san. You got it in one try. [16:00] (Flashback) Kinjou     The first time he told me to do it,      I couldn't hit it once. [16:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     After Koseki-san moved away, [16:06] (Flashback) Kinjou     there was no one to praise me when     I came here alone and hit it. [16:12] (Flashback) Kinjou     Chance encounters can be cruel sometimes. [16:16] (Flashback) Kinjou     They're not there when you wish they were. [16:19] (Flashback) Kinjou     When you're troubled, when you're suffering, [16:22] (Flashback) Kinjou     when you're happy, when you're overwhelmed... [16:29] (Flashback) Kinjou     They're gone. [16:31] (Flashback) Kinjou     What would you do, Onoda? [16:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     Would you look for their replacement? [16:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? A replacement? [16:49] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's right. You already have your answer. [16:53] (Flashback) Kinjou     There's no one [16:57] (Flashback) Kinjou     who can replace them. [17:02] (Flashback) Kinjou     Then what do you do? [17:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     You ask them for guidance in your heart     and choose the path you should follow. [17:10] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's all you can do. [17:14] Kinjou     You can't recover from something     like that right away. [17:20] Kinjou     But unlike the trip here,     his pedaling has become natural. [17:24] Kinjou     He's not tensing up. [17:28] Kinjou     That's it, Onoda. One step at a time. [17:33] Kinjou     I came to this beach to     make you face the truth. [17:37] Kinjou     There's nothing you can do about     Makishima going to England. [17:42] Kinjou     But you can think back on everything     Makishima taught you, just like I once did. [17:51] Kinjou     Those joyful moments,     those moments that moved you... [17:57] Kinjou     And after all that thought,     the path you choose. [18:04] (Flashback) Kinjou     Onoda. [18:06] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Huh? Yes, sir. [18:09] (Flashback) Kinjou     When you're struggling or troubled,     you have to decide for yourself. [18:15] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [18:16] (Flashback) Kinjou     The answer can only be found within yourself. [18:19] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [18:20] (Flashback) Kinjou     But when things get so difficult     that you can't stand... [18:25] (Flashback) Kinjou     Lean on me. I'll support you. [18:29] (Flashback) Sakamichi     What? [18:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     You know what I mean. [18:35] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's right. Sohoku is a team     that supports each other. [18:42] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes, sir. [18:44] (Flashback) Kinjou     The path you choose after all     that thought leads to the future. [18:53] Kinjou     That fall, Onoda won the     Minegayama hill climb. [18:59] (Flashback) Naruko     Nice work today, Onoda-kun. [19:03] (Flashback) Sakamichi     A-Aw, shucks. [19:05] (Flashback) Naruko     I was shakin' when you passed that lanky     guy from Hakone Academy at the end. [19:10] (Flashback) Naruko     Meanwhile, hotshot did absolutely     nothin' while ridin' in the back. [19:14] (Flashback) Imaizumi     I did plenty. You just weren't watching. [19:18] (Flashback) Naruko     Yeah, yeah. Sure you did. [19:20] (Flashback) Kinjou     Good work, Teshima. [19:23] (Flashback) Kinjou     That was the new Sohoku's first victory. [19:26] (Flashback) Teshima     I was just there when it happened.      I didn't do anything. [19:31] (Flashback) Kinjou     I'm not so sure about that. [19:33] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But I didn't come close to     beating Makishima-san's time. [19:38] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Makishima-san is the winner. [19:40] (Flashback) Both     That's not right! [19:42] (Flashback) Kinjou     Onoda couldn't have attacked if     you hadn't ridden so recklessly [19:46] (Flashback) Kinjou     during the middle of the race. [19:49] (Flashback) Teshima     I wouldn't say that. [19:54] Kinjou     Little by little, Onoda's condition improved. [20:00] Kinjou     He stopped falling during practice. [20:03] (Flashback) Naruko     That's it, Onoda-kun. [20:07] (Flashback) Teshima     Onoda's climbing reasonably well again. [20:10] (Flashback) Teshima     Kinjou-san, what did you do that day? [20:15] (Flashback) Kinjou     I simply told him the obvious. Sohoku is      a team that supports each other. [20:21] (Flashback) Kinjou     That doesn't change once the race     ends and we've gotten off our bikes. [20:26] (Flashback) Kinjou     Onoda's recovery is in part due to you     carrying on that spirit and leading the team. [20:31] (Flashback) Kinjou     That's good news. [20:36] (Flashback) Teshima     He seems to be doing well physically. [20:41] (Flashback) Teshima     But sometimes he still     spaces out during practice. [20:46] (Flashback) Teshima     He falls back when he needs to try harder. [20:49] (Flashback) Kinjou     So it's an emotional problem. [20:51] (Flashback) Teshima     Yes. I don't think he's over it yet. [20:54] (Flashback) Kinjou     Normally winning a race would fix it. [20:59] (Flashback) Teshima     It's all right. We'll do something about it. [21:03] (Flashback) Teshima     Come visit the team room from time to time. [21:21] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Hello, Kinjou-san. [21:24] (Flashback) Kinjou     Another letter? [21:26] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Yes. [21:27] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Practice was canceled due to the snow, [21:30] (Flashback) Sakamichi     so I'm catching him up on     everything that's happened. [21:33] (Flashback) Kinjou     I'm impressed. You must've sent     more than 20 letters by now. [21:39] (Flashback) Sakamichi     But, well... I enjoy     doing this, so it's fine, [21:45] (Flashback) Sakamichi     but I've never received a     response from Makishima-san. [21:50] (Flashback) Kinjou     He can be a bit odd.     He's not much of a writer, either. [21:56] (Flashback) Kinjou     But he'll enjoy receiving your letters. [21:59] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I hope you're right. [22:01] (Flashback) Kinjou     The other day, I sent him     the Inter-High results. [22:05] (Flashback) Kinjou     On the edge of the envelope     sent back, he wrote, [22:08] (Flashback) Kinjou     "Tell Onoda thank you for the letters." [22:15] (Flashback) Kinjou     He wrote it directly on the envelope     instead of writing a letter. [22:19] (Flashback) Kinjou     He's a weird guy. [22:23] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Is that true? [22:27] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That means my letters are     reaching Makishima-san, right? [22:36] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That means he's reading them, right? [22:44] (Flashback) Sakamichi     That's great. I'm so glad. [22:49] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Thank you. [22:51] Kinjou     This rising pressure... [22:53] Kinjou     All this from one sentence scribbled     on the edge of an envelope? [22:58] (Flashback) Sakamichi     Oh, right. I'd better keep writing. [23:01] Kinjou     Onoda, you truly are a surprising man. [23:10] Kinjou     Surprisingly, Onoda recovered     quickly after that day.

[04:35] (Flashback) Sakamichi     I'd be happy just supporting them. [04:40] Kinjou     At the time, I thought     he was just being modest. [04:44] Kinjou     But he truly felt that way. [04:47] Kinjou     Just as he was delighted by a     brief note from Makishima...

[04:59] Kinjou     He doesn't desire victory. [05:03] Kinjou     Within the team's hierarchy,     he's rather low-ranking. [05:06] Kinjou     I'm constantly surprised by      his unexpected behavior. [05:11] Kinjou     To chase after those ahead of him. [05:14] Kinjou     To connect with his teammates. [05:17] Kinjou     He rides for those simple reasons.

[11:05] Imaizumi     I'm sorry for asking you to     do this twice, Sakamichi. [11:09] Sakamichi     I'm sorry we couldn't     pull off a one-two finish. [11:12] Imaizumi     That was forever ago. [11:14] Imaizumi     It's not your fault. You did plenty. [11:17] Imaizumi     Thank you. [11:19] Sakamichi     At the very end, when Manami-kun     pulled ahead of me... [11:25] Sakamichi     When I was struggling,     I saw a mirage for a moment. [11:28] Sakamichi     The whole team was waiting     for me beneath the goal gate. [11:34] Sakamichi     I saw you. [11:38] Imaizumi     That probably wasn't a mirage that you saw. [11:43] Imaizumi     Bicycles have that power. [11:47] Aya     Oh, right. Who's finishing next? [11:51] Aya     I gotta get their bottles and towels. [11:55] Miki     You don't need to do that, Aya-chan. [11:58] Miki     They all gave everything they had. [12:02] Miki     It must've been difficult. [12:06] Miki     This year Onoda-kun and Imaizumi-kun [12:09] Miki     are the only members of Team     Sohoku completing the race. SIGN    Yowamushi Pedal [12:22] Announce     This is Onoda's second victory! [12:25] Announce     Chiba's Sohoku High School are     once again Inter-High champions! [12:29] Announce     It was a close race. [12:30] Announce     It wasn't clear who would     win until the very end. [12:33] Announce     But Sohoku pushed      just a little bit harder. [12:37] Teshima     Onoda... Onoda... [12:40] Teshima     Onoda... Onoda... [12:42] Teshima     Seriously, well done. [12:45] Teshima     I'm sorry for making you take on     such difficult jobs all the time. [12:52] Teshima     I've been wanting to see     how fast you'd become [12:56] Teshima     ever since that day I gave you those shoes. [12:59] Teshima     But I never imagined you'd     take me all the way here. [13:07] Teshima     I once thought about quitting     bicycle racing in middle school. [13:11] Teshima     I started riding again when I met Aoyagi. [13:16] Teshima     I lost my chance to go to the Inter-High     after you guys beat us at the training camp. [13:22] Teshima     I finally won a ticket to the Inter-High     as a third-year after beating Koga [13:25] Teshima     when we couldn't settle on a lineup. [13:30] Teshima     Taking over as captain for a championship     team was a heavy responsibility. [13:35] Teshima     I had a hard time with it.     I certainly wasn't strong, [13:39] Teshima     but I can say this proudly now. [13:47] Teshima     I'm glad I kept riding. [13:51] Teshima     But I'm sorry, Onoda... Imaizumi. [13:54] Teshima     I don't think I'll be able to      attend the award ceremony. [13:57] Teshima     I'm counting on you guys. [13:59] Kaburagi     Teshima-san! [14:01] Teshima     Kaburagi? [14:03] Kaburagi     We're going to the award ceremony. [14:06] Teshima     You came in that way? [14:07] Kaburagi     The race staff were considerate     enough to give us a ride. [14:13] Kaburagi     Step on the clutch, driver! [14:16] Aoyagi     It's the "gas," not the "clutch." [14:18] Kaburagi     Come on! Step on it! [14:20] Teshima     He's rather intense. [14:21] Kaburagi      [14:23] Aoyagi     Junta... [14:24] Teshima     Aoyagi... [14:27] Naruko     Hey! [14:30] Naruko     Thanks for givin' me a ride     again this year, driver! [14:33] Driver     Oh, you're that boy from last year. [14:37] Naruko     Could you step on it again this year? [14:52] Fan     Someone's coming. [14:54] Announce     The next rider to arrive is the race's     tallest competitor at 202 centimeters tall, [15:00] Announce     #11, Ashikiba Takuto. [15:03] Announce     He's just crossed the finish line. [15:05] Announce     He is the winner of the     third day's mountain tag. [15:10] Fan D     Huh? He's already wearing a red mountain tag. [15:14] Fan E     Ashikiba won the mountains yesterday, too. [15:18] Fan E     In other words, he won it two days in a row. [15:21] Fan D     What? But didn't he win the first day, too? [15:24] Fan D     Wow, he won a tag every day? [15:27] Fan     Ashikiba-kun! [15:30] Ashikiba     King of the Mountains... [15:32] Ashikiba     Today's tag belongs to     the both of us, Jun-chan. [15:38] Announce     Next to finish is another     Hakone Academy rider. [15:42] Fan E     He won two tags in a row, too. [15:44] Fan D     What? [15:45] Announce     #14, Hakone Academy Captain     Izumida Touichirou. [15:50] Announce     He's won the third day's green sprint tag. [15:54] Fan D     But I thought they crossed     today's sprint line as a group. [15:58] Fan E     They get ranked regardless. [16:00] Fan E     Izumida crossed the line fourth, [16:03] Fan E     but the three riders before him     dropped out, so he won it instead. [16:07] Fan E     That means Hakone Academy won the     third day's mountain and sprint tags. [16:16] Izumida     You lost the finish line     to him again, Manami. [16:23] Izumida     I heard you swore to Fukutomi-san [16:25] Izumida     that you'd get revenge next     year after last year's race. [16:29] Izumida     I know how hard you've worked this past year [16:32] Izumida     through the frustration     and heavy responsibility. [16:36] Izumida     You took on so much and did well. [16:40] Izumida     But I never once praised you. [16:44] Izumida     As your captain, I didn't want     to undermine your determination. [16:51] Izumida     No, perhaps I saw myself in you. [16:59] Izumida     We're the only two members who     know last year's frustration. [17:09] Izumida     I expected no praise from anyone     as I rode this past year. [17:13] Izumida     I did everything I could, prayed for success, [17:16] Izumida     and grew out my hair for my last Inter-High. [17:19] Izumida     Manami, you did well. [17:25] Izumida     I'll praise you once we're back at our tent. [17:28] Izumida     For this year. [17:30] Izumida     For the distance you traveled to get here. [17:37] Kaburagi     Onoda-san! [17:39] Miki     Kaburagi-kun. SIGN    Judge's Car [17:43] Kaburagi     Sorry to keep you waiting. [17:45] Kaburagi     New-generation Sohoku rookie     Kaburagi Issa has arrived! [17:48] Koga     You're awfully lively for     someone who's injured. [17:50] Imaizumi     The dumber they are, the quicker they heal. [17:53] Kaburagi     The award ceremony can't get started     without super rookie Kaburagi Issa. [17:58] Teshima     I don't believe it. [18:00] Announce     The award ceremony will begin shortly. [18:02] Announce     Riders, please get ready. [18:06] Teshima     I'm actually here. [18:07] Announce     Once again, the award     ceremony will begin shortly. [18:14] Arakita     There you are. [18:16] Arakita     Kuroda's looking for you, oddball. [18:20] Manami     Arakita-san, you came? [18:25] Arakita     I thought you'd be crying like last year,     but it looks like you're doing all right. [18:31] Manami     I'm sorry. I lost again this year. [18:35] Arakita     I already graduated.      I'm not on the team anymore. [18:38] Arakita     You've got no reason to apologize to me. [18:43] Arakita     You couldn't get revenge, huh? [18:48] Manami     No. He'd gotten even     stronger than I expected. [18:54] Manami     No, maybe he became stronger in that moment. [18:59] Manami     He exceeded my expectations. [19:02] Manami     Most of the time he doesn't     seem strong at all. [19:06] Arakita     You're actually pretty similar. [19:10] Arakita     Well, you know, in reality,     it's always hard to turn things around. [19:15] Arakita     My seniors laughed at me when     I said I'd ride in the Inter-High. [19:19] Arakita     I finally made it after three years. [19:22] Arakita     Sometimes no matter how hard you struggle,      you can't make any progress. [19:26] Arakita     But eventually, an opportunity comes around. [19:30] Manami     Are you trying to cheer me up? [19:32] Manami     Is that why you came here? [19:35] Arakita     What? [19:38] Arakita     Yeah, that's right. [19:41] Arakita     When you were carrying Hakone Academy on     your back as you raced for the finish line, [19:47] Arakita     you were freakin' awesome. [19:52] Manami     Please, Arakita-san. [19:55] Manami     Since I went all-out this year, I decided     I wouldn't cry whether I won or lost. [20:04] Manami     Thank you. [20:10] Official     Huh? There was a rider sleeping in here... [20:14] Official     Did he go to the bathroom? [20:19] Kaburagi      [20:19] Miki     I found the spare jersey. [20:22] Naruko     Thanks. Mine got ripped up 'cause I fell. [20:25] Official C     This way, please. [20:27] Sakamichi     Okay. [20:32] Teshima     I can hear the crowd's cheers. [20:36] Teshima     I'm about to climb up     there on my own two legs. [20:40] Teshima     Onto a podium I've never stood on before. [20:44] Sakamichi     U-Um, I'm really glad that you     all made it to the ceremony. [20:51] Sakamichi     So that all six of us will be going up together. [20:53] Aoyagi     Yeah. [20:54] Imaizumi     Totally. [21:00] Teshima     Thank you, Onoda. [21:04] Teshima     For taking our Sohoku to those heights again. [21:09] Sakamichi     Oh, no. I couldn't have done without all of you. [21:14] Sakamichi     I won because of you. [21:17] Sakamichi     Thank you. [21:26] Imaizumi     Teshima-san... [21:28] Imaizumi     In that moment, [21:30] Imaizumi     past the mountain gate,      you sent us off without hesitation. [21:36] Imaizumi     You gave no sign of wanting to defend     your own mountain result title. [21:41] Imaizumi     Your resolve lit a fire in us. [21:47] Imaizumi     We got our team's jersey to the finish line [21:50] Imaizumi     despite the struggle because     of you, Teshima-san. [21:52] Teshima     You're giving me too much credit, Imaizumi. [21:56] Imaizumi     I disagree. [21:59] Teshima     Let's do it together. [22:01] All     Ready, and...
