[01:47] Shinkai
    once the air's become a little chilly.
[01:51] Shinkai
    I never even thought about
    it when we were first-years.
[01:57] Toudou
    I can't believe we're the
    ones being sent off now.
[02:01] Shinkai
    Let's go. It's our last run as part of
    the Hakone Academy bicycle racing club.
[02:06] Fukutomi
    Yeah.
[02:07] Toudou
    Yeah.
[02:08] Arakita
    It's cold.
[02:13] Izumida
    I look forward to riding with you today.
[02:16] Toudou
    Sure.
[02:17] Shinkai
    We're counting on you.
[02:18] Fukutomi
    Izumida.
[02:19] Arakita
    Try not to fall.
[02:20] Izumida
    Yes, sir.
[02:25] Club A
    The third-year send-off
    fun ride will now begin!
[02:29] All
    Thank you!
[02:30] All
    Thank you!
[02:41] Second-Year
    Make sure you obey all traffic signals.
[02:43] Second-Year
    This 120 kilometer course
    follows the national highway
[02:45] Second-Year
    and heads south along the coast,
[02:46] Second-Year
    turns right at Kawazu, crosses Amagihara
    Pass, and finishes at the city parking lot.
[02:52] First-Year B
    A hundred and twenty kilometers?
    Isn't that a little long for a fun ride?
[02:56] Second-Year
    This is the course we ride every year.
[02:59] Second-Year
    We keep up a brisk pace,
    so try not to fall behind.

[03:06] Girl B
    Toudou-kun!
[03:08] Girl C
    You can do it!
[03:10] Toudou
    There are my fangirls.
[03:15] Toudou
    Thanks for your passionate send-off.
[03:18] Girl B
    Toudou-sama!
[03:19] Girl C
    The last time we'll see his valiant figure!
[03:21] Arakita
    You idiot, eyes forward!
SIGN    Toudou
    -sama
[03:22] Girl A
    Toudou-kun, point your finger at us!
[03:29] Toudou
    The heavens granted me three things.
[03:32] Toudou
    Not only can I climb, but I'm
    also a skilled conversationalist,
[03:34] Toudou
    and then there's my great looks.
[03:35] Toudou
    Even the forest sleeps through my—
[03:36] Arakita
    I told you to face forward, you idiot!
[03:40] Club E
    Toudou-san's amazing.
[03:42] Club D
    Yeah. I don't really get it,
    but he's amazing.
[03:45] Fujiwara
    No, Toudou actually is amazing.
[03:48] Club D
    Fujiwara-senpai!
[03:50] Club D
    Thanks for your three years of service.
[03:52] Fujiwara
    Yeah. The next generation of Hakone
    Academy is counting on you.
[03:56] Fujiwara
    Toudou seems to joke around,
    but when the team needs him,
[04:00] Fujiwara
    he always shows up in top condition.
[04:03] Fujiwara
    Remember what happened at the Inter-High?
[04:06] Club D
    Yes, sir.
[04:07] Fujiwara
    He works hard while we're not watching.
[04:10] Fujiwara
    Back-breakingly hard.
[04:12] Toudou
    Not at all, Fujiwara.
[04:15] Fujiwara
    What?
[04:15] Toudou
    It's just the talent heaven has granted me.
[04:18] Toudou
    I'm what they call a ge—
[04:19] Arakita
    Eyes forward!
[04:20] Toudou
    What's your problem? That's the best part.
[04:22] Fujiwara
    He's kind of annoying.
[04:22] Arakita
    Shut up and ride! You're distracting me!
[04:23] Club D
    He really is amazing.
[04:27] Shinkai
    Thanks, Juichi.
[04:30] Shinkai
    For six years.
[04:32] Fukutomi
    Yeah, Shinkai.
[04:35] Fukutomi
    We've known each other since middle school.
    We've been together a long time.
[04:39] Shinkai
    It couldn't have been better.
    I'm glad I had you, Juichi.
[04:43] Shinkai
    Thanks to you, I was able to keep riding.
[04:47] Fukutomi
    You're the fastest man alive.
    What are you talking about?
[04:49] Club F
    Amazing. They're recognizing
    each other's abilities.
[04:53] Club G
    And they're strong.
[04:55] Club H
    I want to be like them by
    the time I'm a third-year.
[05:00] Fukutomi
    In order to become strong, you must
    endure the pain and persevere.
[05:05] Fukutomi
    I was able to do that for six years because I
[05:07] Fukutomi
    had someone as strong as you
    riding beside me, Shinkai.
[05:11] Fukutomi
    Thank you.
[05:13] Shinkai
    It's embarrassing when you
    put it like that, Juichi.
[05:17] Shinkai
    Want some?
[05:24] Arakita
    Don't look at me so expectantly!
[05:26] Arakita
    I don't have anything heartfelt to say!
[05:29] Club F
    I knew it.
[05:31] Club M
    He doesn't seem the type.
[05:32] Club H
    But how did he know?
    Was it his wild instincts?
[05:38] Toudou
    No, the team came together because of you.
[05:42] Arakita
    Tou—
[05:45] Shinkai
    Thanks for practicing with us.
[05:48] Arakita
    Shinkai.
[05:51] Fukutomi
    Arakita, no one could've carried us better.
[05:54] Arakita
    Fuku-chan, you, too?
[05:57] Arakita
    Shut up! Stop complimenting me!
[06:06] Shinkai
    We're on the seaside highway now.
[06:09] Shinkai
    It's a two-lane road from here on out.
[06:12] Club A
    Huh? The third-years are moving ahead.
[06:15] Fujiwara
    It's time.
[06:16] Club A
    Huh?
[06:17] Fujiwara
    This is where it always starts.
[06:19] Club A
    But I thought this was a fun ride.
[06:22] Fujiwara
    You must be stupid.
[06:24] Fujiwara
    Today's course has a finish line,
    and we're Hakone Academy.
[06:28] Fujiwara
    There's no way it won't turn into a race.
[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!
