The now whole Hakone Academy team accelerates, and Naruko ignores Imaizumi's orders and goes after them alone! Later, Teshima joins up with Imaizumi and Sakamichi, but he can't increase his pace. Kishigami Komari appears with the rest of Kyoto Fushimi in tow, passing Sohoku! Frustrated by his lapse in judgment, Imaizumi speaks harshly to Teshima, while the sound of something breaking can be heard in his heart... Meanwhile, Hakone Academy and Kyoto Fushimi head into the sprint. It looks to be a race between Izumida and Midousuji... but instead a surprising man approaches...!
If Hakone Academy hadn't passed me,
 this never would've happened.
Wenn Hakone mich nicht überholt hätte,
wären wir nicht in dieser Situation.
Si los de Hakone no me hubieran
adelantado, esto no habría pasado.
Si los de Hakone no me hubieran
adelantado, esto no habría pasado.
On en serait pas là,
si Hakone m’avait pas doublé…
Se l'Accademia Hakone non mi avesse superato,
tutto questo non sarebbe successo.
Se a Hakone não tivesse me passado,
nada disto teria acontecido.
Не обойди меня Хаконэ,
такого бы не случилось.
