The dead heat between Midousuji and Naruko at the front of the race continues! Behind them Kuroda pulls as hard as he can, but the two in front of them remain out of sight. Saying "Hakone Academy has nothing left to lose," Ashikiba, who had only been pulled until now, switches places with Kuroda and begins his Metronome Dancing. They are rapidly closing the gap. Imaizumi also pedals as hard as he can so he can support Naruko. Midousuji, Naruko, Kuroda, Ashikiba, and Imaizumi... The time has come for these five men who have steeled their resolve to settle the score!
But I always think of how we could've 
been the best of friends, Naruko-kun.
Aber wir wären vielleicht
beste Freunde geworden!
Pero siempre pensé que hubiéramos sido
pero siempre pensé
mais on aurait pu devenir
les meilleurs potes du monde.
Sai, penso sempre
che saremmo potuti essere ottimi amici, Naruko.
Sempre achei que seríamos
melhores amigos, Naruko.
Но я всегда думал, что мы могли стать отличными друзьями, Наруко.
