Excited by Izumida taking the sprint result, Hakone Academy pushes to the front. Meanwhile, Sohoku's team is scattered, and their terrible situation continues. Naruko expends energy as he clings to the lead pack and waits for the rest of his team to catch up. Teshima, Sakamichi, and Imaizumi are passed by Kumamoto Daiichi, and they fall deeper into despair. However, Sakamichi cheerfully asserts Aoyagi and Kaburagi will catch up and continues pedaling. When Teshima looks behind him, he sees a pair of yellow jerseys come into view--!
I don't want to face the pain we experienced 
last year again, so I've become a demon.
Ich möchte nicht noch einmal
den Schmerz erfahren,
No repetiré el dolor del año pasado,
así que me hice un demonio.
No repetiré el dolor del año pasado,
así que me he vuelto un demonio.
Alors pas question
qu’on repasse un sale quart d’heure.
Non ho intenzione di provare di nuovo
il dolore dell'anno scorso.
Não quero sentir a dor do ano passado de novo...
E por isso, decidi virar um demônio.
Я не хочу вновь пройти через горечь прошлого
 года, потому решил стать демоном.
