Sakamichi turns his pedals in order to fulfill his promise to battle Manami at the Inter-high. He and his team catch up to Hakone Academy, but it's not the lead pack. Ashikiba and Midousuji have gone on ahead. Due to the change in circumstances, Manami tells Sakamichi that they can't battle. Teshima orders Sakamichi to go after the lead pack. Steeling his resolve, Sakamichi and Imaizumi race their pace. Meanwhile, at the lead pack, in contrast with Hakone Academy, Kyoto Fushimi, and Kumamoto Daiichi, Naruko battles alone, believing his teammates will catch up!
Will he discard me when 
he's done with me, too?
Wird der mich opfern,
wenn wir fertig sind?
¿También me desechará
cuando no pueda más?
¿También me sacrificará a mí
cuando no pueda más?
Il compte aussi
m’abandonner après ?
Getterà via anche me, quando avrà finito?
Será que ele também vai me descartar?!
Он и от меня избавится, как
 перестану приносить пользу?
