Sakamichi meets Kinjou, who tells him to become stronger. He learns that Makishima and Tadokoro have come to cheer on the team as well and tells the rest of the team shaken by the first day's loss. Team Sohoku resolves to approach the rest of the race with a new attitude. Meanwhile, the similarly defeated Midousuji of Kyoto Fushimi begins planning a new strategy for the second day's race... The morning of the second day dawns. Hakone Academy's Shinkai Yuto strikes up a conversation with Sakamichi. "Let's race at some point today."
Anyone who falls out of line or
doesn't do as I say will get left behind.
Jeder, der hier etwas Unnötiges
tut, was ich nicht sage,
Quien haga algo innecesario.
Quien haga algo innecesario
Ceux qui en font plus
que nécessaire
Chi romperà la formazione o non farà come dico
verrà lasciato indietro.
Quem não entrar no ritmo e desobedecer
minhas ordens vai ficar pra trás.
Каждый, кто будет отставать или
не слушаться меня, останется позади.
