Just before Sakamichi and Manami's race to the finish, Kuroda pulls for Manami from their position behind the lead riders. One year ago, after falling into a depression when he was beaten by Manami in the qualifier, he resolved to restore Hakone Academy to its former glory when Arakita entrusted him with the team. Kuroda, who rides shrewdly when he activates his switch, endures the pain in the leg before finally trusting Manami with his own hopes and sending him off. Manami spreads his wings and accelerates. Meanwhile, as Sakamichi falls behind, for some reason a song begins playing in his head!
He's being overwhelmed by the 
pressure of riding at the front.
Der Druck an der Spitze
Se siente abrumado por la presión
de ir a la cabeza.
Se siente abrumado por la presión
de ir a la cabeza.
La pression de rouler en tête,
La pressione di trovarsi al primo posto 
lo sta schiacciando.
Ele está sofrendo com a pressão
de liderar a corrida.
На него давит то, 
что он едет самым первым.
