After being challenged by Tokyo Sport University's Sakaki, Kakeru and the other residents of Chikusei-so have grown closer.
As they celebrate the renewal of their resolve, King comes home wearing a suit for a change.
Meanwhile, Kakeru voices his objections to participating in a track meet so soon.
What point is there in forcing the amateurish residents to face reality?
In response to Kakeru, Haiji asks his own question.
Kakeru's doubts remain unresolved as Haiji begins holding proper practices.
However, King refuses to participate because he's busy looking for a job...
Under a cloud of anxiety, their proper training begins.
Aren't you embarrassed to run at their level?
!ألا تشعر بالإحراج للركض في مستواهم؟
Ist es dir nicht peinlich,
dich auf deren Niveau zu begeben?
¿No te avergüenza correr
con gente de su nivel?
¿No te avergüenza correr
con gente de su nivel?
T’as honte de courir
à ce niveau, non ?
Ma non ti vergogni a correre
con gente del loro livello?!
Não sente vergonha por
estar com caras deste nível?!
Тебе не стыдно бегать на их уровне?!
