SIGN Doubashi Masakiyo's Inter-High
[01:34] Yuuto
They're catching up.
[01:39] Doubashi
There's less than one kilometer
left to the mountains.
[01:43] Doubashi
My legs are practically frozen
solid due to the intense pain.
[01:46] Doubashi
My body's groaning under the strain.
[01:48] Doubashi
But I feel amazing.
[01:51] Doubashi
After all, I'm riding at the front
[01:53] Doubashi
of the Inter-High while wearing
a Hakone Academy jersey.
[01:59] Kuroda
Crap. Touichirou, Doubashi's
lost consciousness.
[02:05] Kuroda
Hey, Touichirou!
[02:06] Izumida
Yuki...
[02:07] Izumida
I'm not stopping him.
[02:08] Izumida
As another sprinter, I know...
[02:13] Izumida
he's currently experiencing
[02:16] Izumida
total satisfaction.
[02:21] Izumida
I can't stop him.
[02:23] Izumida
On the first day,
[02:25] Izumida
he won the sprint.
[02:28] Izumida
On the second day, he pulled
the team through the flats.
[02:31] Izumida
On the third day, he pulled our
cooperating teams, and now...
[02:35] Izumida
He's attempting to complete his final job.
[02:40] Manami
Bashi-kun...
SIGN Hakone Academy Bicycle Racing Club
[02:44] (Flashback) Izumida
Two second-years will be joining
our Inter-High team this year.
[02:48] (Flashback) Izumida
Manami and Doubashi.
[02:51] (Flashback) Hakogaku A
Manami the airhead and
Doubashi the bulldozer, huh?
[02:55] (Flashback) Hakogaku B
They're total opposites.
[02:58] (Flashback) Izumida
Could the two of you tell us your goals?
[03:00] (Flashback) Manami
Okay.
[03:00] Doubashi
Yes, sir, Izumida-san.
[03:02] (Flashback) Manami
Well, you see—
[03:02] Doubashi
I want to make Hakone Academy—
[03:06] Doubashi
I want to make Hakone Academy—
[03:06] (Flashback) Manami
I'm thinking about following
orders a little more.
[03:11] Doubashi
I want to make Hakone Academy—
[03:11] (Flashback) Manami
I'd like to win King of the Mountains
at Irohazaka, and...
[03:14] (Flashback) Doubashi
Stop talking while I'm talking, Manami.
[03:17] (Flashback) Doubashi
I'll speak first, got it?
[03:19] (Flashback) Manami
I already more or less
said what I wanted to say.
[03:22] (Flashback) Doubashi
What?!
[03:24] (Flashback) Hakogaku C
They're like oil and water.
[03:27] Doubashi
Manami Sangaku, huh?
[03:30] Doubashi
We've never talked much,
but I guess that's different.
[03:38] (Flashback) Manami
You want me to tell you about the Inter-High?
[03:40] (Flashback) Doubashi
That's right. I wanna know what you
thought about riding in that race.
[03:45] (Flashback) Doubashi
Tell me all about it.
[03:48] (Flashback) Doubashi
I don't know jack about the Inter-High.
[03:52] (Flashback) Doubashi
Last year, I wasn't even
allowed to go to the course.
[03:57] (Flashback) Doubashi
So I haven't seen it for myself.
[04:00] (Flashback) Doubashi
I don't know how it feels.
[04:02] (Flashback) Manami
It's lively. Everyone waves little flags.
[04:05] (Flashback) Doubashi
Not that. I'm asking about
how you felt on the inside.
[04:08] (Flashback) Doubashi
You've gotta have something for me,
[04:10] (Flashback) Doubashi
like a "watch out for this
or that" kind of thing.
[04:13] (Flashback) Doubashi
Anything helps.
[04:15] (Flashback) Doubashi
I have to achieve something.
[04:19] (Flashback) Doubashi
I go to practices and run simulations,
[04:22] (Flashback) Doubashi
but it's like a tiny thorn stuck in my heart.
[04:26] (Flashback) Doubashi
I fear the Inter-High.
[04:30] (Flashback) Manami
But it's fun.
[04:32] (Flashback) Doubashi
I'm looking for something more specific!
[04:35] (Flashback) Manani
It's fun. You'll experience
all kinds of emotions.
[04:39] (Flashback) Doubashi
What?
[04:40] (Flashback) Manami
Joy and sadness. Happiness and suffering.
[04:44] (Flashback) Manami
You'll even experience strange
coincidences and what feels like fate.
[04:48] (Flashback) Manami
There are goodbyes, loneliness, frustration,
impatience, and even dread, too.
[04:53] (Flashback) Manami
But despite all that,
[04:55] (Flashback) Manami
everyone pours their best efforts
into moments they'll never see again
[04:58] (Flashback) Manami
as they ride together toward the same place.
[05:01] (Flashback) Manami
The tiny lone gate at the finish line.
[05:09] (Flashback) Manami
I feel like that's how all bicycle races are,
[05:13] (Flashback) Manami
but I get the strongest version
of that feeling at the Inter-High.
[05:17] (Flashback) Manami
Right? Doesn't that sound fun?
[05:21] (Flashback) Manami
Since you're such an emotional guy,
I'm sure you'll really enjoy it.
[05:28] Doubashi
What kind of answer is that?
[05:29] Doubashi
I don't get it.
[05:32] Doubashi
But in other words, you're telling me not
to be afraid and to have fun, Manami.
[05:39] Manami
How is it, Bashi-kun?
[05:41] Manami
I bet you're having the time
of your life right now.
[05:46] Doubashi
Manami, I feel amazing right now.
[05:51] Doubashi
I've been falling in and
out of consciousness.
[05:54] Doubashi
My entire body hurts. I'm at my limit.
[05:56] Doubashi
But I don't care about any of that!
[06:00] Doubashi
Five hundred meters to go.
[06:02] Doubashi
My legs will stop turning soon,
but I have no regrets!
[06:07] Doubashi
This is the ultimate jersey,
the ultimate race, and the ultimate end!
[06:13] Doubashi
Come to think of it, Arakita-san
said something about this...
[06:17] (Flashback) Doubashi
I'll do anything. Please.
[06:20] (Flashback) Arakita
Shaddup. You shout too much.
[06:24] (Flashback) Doubashi
Sorry, Arakita-san.
[06:27] (Flashback) Arakita
Come to think of it,
you didn't get to go this year.
[06:29] (Flashback) Doubashi
No, sir.
[06:31] (Flashback) Doubashi
I'm determined to ride in
the Inter-High next year.
[06:39] (Flashback) Doubashi
I only know about the Inter-High
through the team's records.
[06:42] (Flashback) Arakita
Then that's all there is to it.
[06:44] (Flashback) Arakita
Nothing happened besides
what's recorded in the logs.
[06:48] (Flashback) Doubashi
No, but...
[06:51] (Flashback) Doubashi
I see...
[06:56] (Flashback) Arakita
There is one thing, though
I doubt it'll help you at all.
[07:01] (Flashback) Arakita
You can't understand it unless
you experience it for yourself.
[07:04] (Flashback) Arakita
I certainly didn't.
[07:06] (Flashback) Arakita
But if you go, you'll see.
[07:10] (Flashback) Arakita
Riding at the front in the final
stage of the Inter-High...
[07:14] (Flashback) Arakita
feels unbelievably awesome.
[07:18] Doubashi
He was right. This is unbelievable!
[07:21] Doubashi
This is exhilarating, Arakita-san!
[07:24] Doubashi
Riding at the front in the final stage
of the Inter-High is electrifying!
[07:30] Doubashi
I won't stop.
[07:32] Doubashi
I won't stop pedaling.
[07:34] Doubashi
I'll keep charging forward.
[07:35] Doubashi
My dignity demands I perform this final act!
[07:38] Fan A
Hakone Academy's in front!
[07:40] Fan B
Sohoku's here, too!
[07:42] Fan B
They're going as fast as they can
so they can send off their climbers
[07:44] Fan B
from the best possible position!
[07:48] Kaburagi
Turn faster! Faster, gears!
[08:06] Onoda
Kaburagi-kun, I've caught up
to Hakone Academy's last rider.
[08:10] Naruko
Kabu!
[08:11] Imaizumi
Kaburagi.
[08:11] Teshima
Kaburagi!
[08:13] Kaburagi
Aoyagi-san said Sohoku always gets
things done in the nick of time.
[08:18] Kaburagi
So I'll catch up to Doubashi in
the front in the nick of time!
[08:25] Yuuto
Sohoku's accelerating even more.
[08:27] Fan A
Three hundred meters left!
[08:30] Fan B
Two hundred meters!
[08:32] Fan C
One hundred meters!
[08:33] Kuroda
We're almost at the mountains. Get ready.
[08:33] Teshima
We're almost at the mountains. Get ready.
[08:39] All
Zero!
[08:43] Doubashi
Go, climbers!
[08:43] Kaburagi
Go, climbers!
[08:46] Sohoku
You did great, Kaburagi!
[08:48] Onoda
Thank you!
[08:52] Manami
Was that tough? Did it make you happy?
[08:55] Manami
Didn't you experience all
kinds of emotions, Bashi-kun?
[08:59] Doubashi
The only thing I felt was joy.
[09:09] Doubashi
I never imagined, orange...
[09:14] Kaburagi
Huh?
[09:15] Doubashi
...that you'd catch up to me at the last second.
[09:21] Kaburagi
Of course I did.
SIGN Yowamushi Pedal
[09:30] Fan A
The lead pack is here.
[09:32] Fan B
It's finally time for the climb.
[09:33] Fan C
Sohoku's got four riders.
[09:35] Fan D
Onoda's pulling his team.
[09:37] Fan E
He's the little climber who took
the final mountain finish line
[09:41] Fan E
last year as a first-year.
[09:42] Fan E
He's the King of the Mountains,
Onoda Sakamichi.
[09:44] Fan F
Third-year Teshima Junta, who performed
unexpectedly well in the mountains
[09:47] Fan F
on the first day, is right behind him.
[09:49] Fan F
Second-year ace Imaizumi Shunsuke.
[09:51] Fan E
Red and flashy Naruko Shoukichi.
[09:54] Fan F
Wow, Sohoku's in great shape.
SIGN GoGo! Chiba
[09:56] Fan F
With this team, they're sure
to do it again this year.
[09:59] Fan E
Yeah, they could win the whole thing.
[10:02] Fan G
No, look at the Hakone Academy
team behind them.
[10:09] Fan F
Hakone's fastest deliveryman,
third-year Kuroda Yukinari.
[10:13] Fan E
The third-year who seized victory on the
first day, the towering ace Ashikiba Takuto.
[10:19] Fan E
The second-year who wears Hakone Academy's
mountain ace number, Manami Sangaku.
[10:25] Fan G
First-year climber and Peak Hornet,
[10:27] Fan G
younger brother of the Straight
Line Demon, Shinkai Yuuto.
[10:31] Fan H
They're incredible.
[10:32] Fan I
Yeah, their aura is out of this world.
[10:35] Fan E
I don't feel like we can beat them.
[10:37] Fan E
At least hang in there until the end, Sohoku.
[10:42] Yuuto
The road winds as it gains elevation.
[10:47] Onoda
Shinkai-kun...
[10:49] Yuuto
I wonder which mountain it is
that we can see ahead of us.
[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!
