Midousuji leaps into first with a desperate diving turn. More than 200 meters behind in the final stages of the race, Sohoku chases after Midousuji on the Naruko Super Express' final trip. Even as Naruko's consciousness fades, he throws away everything to reduce his weight, and Sakamichi realizes there's no way the three of them will finish together anymore. Imaizumi and Naruko express their gratitude for Naruko's resolve. Naruko accepts their thanks and uses the last of his strength to ride with determination!
In the end, you didn't get to see 
the finish this year either, Naruko.
Dieses Jahr konntest du die Ziellinie
also wieder nicht sehen, Naruko …
Al final, tampoco pudiste
ver el final este año, Naruko.
Al final, tú tampoco has llegado
a ver el final este año, Naruko.
En fin de compte, t’auras pas vu
l’arrivée cette année non plus.
Alla fine, non sei riuscito ad arrivare al traguardo 
nemmeno quest'anno, Naruko.
No fim das contas, você não vai
completar a prova de novo, Naruko...
В итоге в этом году ты вновь
 не увидишь финиш, Наруко.
