Before the race, Captain Teshima told Sakamichi that he wouldn’t be the mountain ace at this Inter-High so the team could focus on taking out Hakone Academy’s formidable climber Manami early during their first attack. However, in order to close the unexpected gap created by Izumida’s sprint, Teshima sacrifices himself and pulls the team. The passionate vibrations of every step he takes forward reach not only Sakamichi and the rest of Team Sohoku but Hakone Academy ace Ashikiba as well…!
Only when you've pushed yourself to 
the limit and steeled your resolve
Ich will entschlossen
an meine Grenzen gehen.
Solo cuando te esfuerzas al máximo
y refuerzas tu determinación
Solo cuando te esfuerzas al máximo
y refuerzas tu determinación
que je dois me résigner
à tout donner jusqu’au bout.
Solo quando ti spingi al limite 
e torni a lottare, più determinato di prima...
É só quando você chega ao limite
com uma determinação inabalável
Лишь когда ты сломал все
 преграды и закалил решимость,
