Gah!

On a straightaway this short?! What are they thinking?!

That white FC just now, wasn't that Ryousuke Takahashi's?!

Are they battling?

An R-32 GT-R...!

You're pretty good.

I'm matching him... I'm matching Ryousuke Takahashi!

So, you are Ryousuke Takahashi of the Akagi RedSuns.

And you are...?

Takeshi Nakazato of the Myougi NightKids.

Nakazato...

I've heard your name, at least.

So, what's a racer from Myougi doing in Akina?

I could ask the same of a racer from Akagi.

We're both after the same target, aren't we?

To think... there's a guy like that in Akina...

A guy with a tuned-up 380 horsepower GT-R is gunning for Akina's 8-6, huh?

How do you know what my car's engine power is?

It's rare to see something so matched and yet mismatched.

I know what the outcome will be before you even do it.

The more powerful GT-R will win on the climb easily.

Conversely, downhill, you'll never beat the 8-6, no matter what you try.

What was that?!

I mean no offense. I'm just saying what I think.

Don't give me that.

Now that you've gone that far, there's no way I can back down!

I'll beat that 8-6 and make what you just said meaningless!

The one who'll show the true colors of Akina's downhill specialist...

is me and my R-32 Skyline GT-R!

Once he races him, he'll understand.

INITIAL D RACER

Don’t Spill it. The tofu will fall apart.

Isn't this more than usual?

Because you're carrying more than usual today.

He seemed a little different, but... maybe it's my imagination.

GENERAL

Thank you very much!

I see. So, Ryousuke Takahashi's come to Akina, huh?

He made a super-precise drift. But...

the bigger surprise was that GT-R.

Note: Grip racing is the opposite of drifting. He was grip racing like a bat out of hell, and was nipping at that FC's heels.

I dunno who it was, but it was pretty amazing.

Well, there are some who say that drift racing looks flashy, but it's actually slower than grip racing.

Huh? Really, Iketani-senpai?

The thing is, a real drift is fast.

Takumi there proves it.

Have you thought it over, Takumi? The offer?

Well...

Please! I got carried away and said, "That 8-6 is the Akina SpeedStars' secret weapon!"

That's what I told everyone.

Me too. if you don't join, I'll be humiliated.

You better join, Takumi!

Because they said if you get to join, then I get to join with you!

I'm fine with joining, but your team's a racing team, isn't it, Senpai?

I'm not a racer.

What are you talking about?

Nobody in Akina is faster than you!

Really?

Yes, really! If you can't do it, then who the heck can?!

Come to think of it, that cup of water he rides with...

I thought Takumi's superior technique came from him learning by attacking the downslope on Akina.

I was wrong.

The climb was more essential.

The most important fundamental in controlling a car is load shifting.

By not spilling the water in the cup while driving, he learned an amazingly delicate level of load control.

That's amazing, Bunta.

You're creating an incredible new type of racer.

Come again. You're creating an incredible new type of racer.

You're creating an incredible new type of racer.

That was a hell of a circus trick.

I hate drifters, but that 8-6... he's fast!

Unless I clear my mind and take the battle to the edge, I'll never beat him.

You'll give me all I can ask for as an opponent...

Akina's 8-6!

GENERAL

God, it's hot...

Senpai and Takumi are so lucky.

Making deliveries in an air conditioned car...

Still, I just don't get that Takumi.

He beat Keisuke Takahashi from the Akagi RedSuns by a mile!

But nothing's changed about him. He still says he's not a racer!

Now, if it were me, I'd be in seventh heaven!

I'd run around the school, and then...! And then...!

Welcome!

Whoa! A GT-R! Awesome!

I'm Nakazato from the Myougi NightKids.

Some locals told me I could contact the Akina SpeedStars if I came here.

You're a member, right?

Huh?

Tell me, when should I come to Akina to meet that famous 8-6?

Huh?

A member of the SpeedStars...

Oh, I like the sound of that!

Do you not know what I'm talking about?

Did I come to the wrong station?

No, you aren't wrong.

I just so happen to be really close friends with the driver of that 8-6.

Really?!

In our circle, we're known as the "Downhill Speed King 8-6 Combo"!

Really? There seems to be a lot of good 8-6 drivers out there.

The SpeedStars are getting a good rep, lately.

Yeah, well, we're not that great, but...

Anyway, if you need to contact him, I'll get your message through.

We are best buds, after all!

Please, be sure he gets the message.

Next Saturday night at 10:00, Nakazato from the NightKids will be waiting on Mt. Akina.

The challenge...

is one downhill race!

Huh...?

U-um... uh, wait! Wait, please! Stop!

Oh, this is so not good.

This is...

It's a formal challenge, isn't it?!

I'm so sorry!

I'm sorry! I'm seriously sorry!

Forgive me!

This is a big problem.

That black GT-R was the guy we saw on Mt. Akina. It has to be!

Yeah, and if it's Nakazato from the NightKids,

he's practically in the same league as Ryousuke Takahashi.

Takumi...

I have no right to ask this of you, but...

please, accept the challenge!

Huh?

Otherwise, it'll cause trouble for Senpai and the others.

I don't understand. Why would my not going cause trouble for them?

They'll say the SpeedStars chickened out. Racers...

Racers have to accept a challenge from a car!

If you like racing cars, that's enough to make you a racer!

That may be true of racers, but I'm not a racer.

Welcome!

H-hey, Takumi!

Iketani, what do we do?! if Takumi doesn't go, it'll be bad!

Well...

Facing a GT-R would be tough, even for Takumi.

And Nakazato from Myougi is as famous a racer as the Takahashi brothers from Akagi.

When you consider that, we can't force him to do this.

SCENIC ROUTE

Dad?

LS a GT-R really incredible?

Well, it's pretty incredible.

Could you beat one going downhill?

I could.

Doesn't matter if it's a GT-R or a Porsche.

Could I beat it?

You need me to lend you the car?

Huh?

No. It's okay.

I see...

Good meal.

Next one's a GT-R, huh?

It's here again today! Nakazato's GT-R!

The starting acceleration on it is unreal! How much horsepower does it have?!

He's taking on the SpeedStars' 8-6 tomorrow! Everyone's talking about it!

There's something fishy about that.

Nakazato from the NightKids...

is challenging the car Keisuke Takahashi from the RedSuns couldn't beat?

This is a clash of pride between the two major powers of Akagi and Myougi!

The nights in Akina this year are gonna be hot!

That Civic just now...

It's fast!

A GT-R is definitely a monster machine...

but it's not unbeatable!

Itsuki... I've given it a lot of thought,

and I think I'm going to ask Takumi to race in tonight's battle.

Even if his opponent is a GT-R, if Takumi drives, that 8-6 is no longer an 8-6.

It becomes an amazing super-machine!

I don't think it'll be any use.

Huh?!

Ever since he was a kid, Takumi's really hated when other people try to force him to do things.

He may look quiet, but once he says something, he's as stubborn as they come.

That's just how he is.

I see.

Iketani-senpai, I'll go to Mt. Akina tonight and apologize to that GT-R.

Itsuki...!

I'll explain the circumstances, then kowtow to him or whatever it takes.

The SpeedStars never had anything to do with this mess.

All right, then I'll go with you.

And don't tell Takumi about any of this.

He's already forgotten about it.

Speaking of him, where is Takumi?

Oh, in the office.

The boss said he wanted to talk to him.

I'll say it again, Takumi:

Your opponent's too nasty. Don't take on that GT-R.

First of all, you'd only be doing it so Itsuki can save face, right?

So, just forget about it.

You're not really into cars so I bet you don't know this, but the GT-R is beyond awesome!

It's in a league all its own!

It combines the strengths of being an FR with 4WD.

An amazing electronically-controlled torque split 4-wheel drive system!

It has high stability, making it fast even on the downslope.

And the RB26 twin-turbo at its heart is a monster!

It's designed to wring out up to 600 horsepower during a race,

so the minute you get close to it, it blasts out the power!

An 8-6 just isn't anywhere near its class.

Not to mention it's driven by a racer worthy of it.

It's an unreasonable challenge.

You've managed to make a name for yourself by beating the Akagi RedSuns.

You should try to take better care of it.

A challenge you have no hope of winning? What's the point?

You have to do what an adult tells you to, right?

Sorry, I appreciate the warning,

but I really don't consider my reputation as a racer to be that important.

You're determined not to quit, then?

I am.

Everyone's told me how amazing this car is, so now I want to see how amazing it is for myself.

Boss, I'm not afraid of this GT-R.

Gotcha!

How many times did I rope Bunta in using the exact same trick?

He's so much like his old man, I figured it'd work on him, too!

This is gonna be so much fun!

Temporarily closed for personal reasons - Fujiwara Tofu

Why's the store closed? No one told me about this!

We're poor enough, so he needs to work hard...

Where's the car?

Dad?

There's no way I can do it without a car.

This gallery's amazing.

There are even more than when we raced Keisuke Takahashi.

I can't believe it's caused this much of a fuss.

The black GT-R... Nakazato!

It's the NightKids.

Look how many of them have come!

Th-they are not in the mood to hear that this was all a big mistake!

They're here! The Takahashi brothers!

Come on! Come on!

Awesome! Keisuke-sama!

Ryousuke-sama! He's too amazing!

Gah!

Ryousuke and Keisuke Takahashi, too?!

We're getting in deeper and deeper! What do we do?!

Why? Why am I so damn irritated?

I want to go so bad, I can't stand it.

If you like racing cars, that's enough to make you a racer!

And if you're a racer, take some pride in the skills you've learned!

Do I really like racing that much? I don't really know for sure, but...

I do have pride in the skills I've learned by driving on my own.

And realizing that, I want to test just how far I can take those skills.

I want to take all I can do now and challenge that GT-R.

This is new for me.

This urge to race is getting stronger and stronger.

Dad... come home!

That's...

That sounds like...

See you later, Dad!

The look in his eyes has changed.

I figured the Takahashi brothers would come.

Of course they're curious about this, considering how he declared that I'd lose.

It's a good chance to show this crowd...

that drift racing can never beat grip racing.

Man, there you go again.

The same stupid thing you parrot endlessly.

Shut up! It's the truth!

Drifting is just a performance meant to stir up the gallery.

If you're not gunning for speed, what kind of racer are you?

I can say so because I used to drift, too.

Racers who graduate from drifting see that grip racing is faster.

The era dominated by drifting in an FR is over.

Because Akina's 8-6 will be ushered to its requiem by me!

Itsuki, let's go.

We'll apologize with you.

I don't know what'll happen, but...

Th-they're gonna kill me!

When I tell them now that the 8-6 isn't coming...!

Daddy... Mommy... God! Save me!

I still haven't even done it with a girl!

I DON'T WANT TO DIE!

Huh...?

What are you doing, sitting in the middle of the road?

T-Takumi...

Takumi... you came?

Yeah.

Sorry for being so late, Itsuki.

When a racer's challenged by a car, he has to accept, right?

TAKUMI...!

He's here, Takeshi.

Acting so high and mighty...

The guy always seems to show up at the last minute.

I was sure he'd be older than me.

A kid like that...

Why does he have that level of technique?

The 8-6 isn't here, is it?

Yuichi?

Did Takumi go? To Mt. Akina?

Yeah. He flew out of here with a weird look in his eyes.

I wonder what the deal is?

Him going up to the pass on his own is a bolt out of the blue.

Like father, like son, I guess.

Bunta, he's racing a GT-R, right?

Did you give him any sort of advice?

Nothing, really.

Just...

Just... what?

This is goal zone. Marshals are in place.

No intruders on the mountain. You can start any time.

Roger. Report any intruders at once.

Roger that.

I'm Nakazato of the Myougi NightKids. What's your name?

Takumi Fujiwara.

I'll remember that name.

Countdown, start!

5 seconds!

4...

3...

2...

1...

Go!

Takumi! Do your best!

Off we go on the Cinderella Castle mystery tour.

Watch this battle closely from your special seat, Keisuke.

That Nakazato... he's holding off on the accelerator to wait for the 8-6.

It'd be a waste to blow him away on the straightaways. I want a real battle. The real start...

comes when we enter the corners!

Are you kidding me?!

There's no way he can keep up with me with that flashy drifting!

I feel moved.

Seeing it up close like this...

once again makes me think how that drift is from technique.

Even I can't control an FC at the edge of the envelope that well.

Except a non-turbocharged 8-6 will eventually be out-powered, right?

A turbo is a powerful ally on straightaways.

When you hit a corner, though, that power disrupts a car's handling. It's a double-edged sword.

But with the 8-6, once he decides on the car's attitude, he just floors it.

On a technical course, an under-powered car that you floor can be fast.

It's true. On the downslope here on Mt. Akina, I barely even tapped my car's 350 horses.

As soon as I'd open her up, I'd have to be braking.

Spending so much time partialing the throttle was irritating.

That's the fate of an FR, which sends all its power to the road surface through the rear tires.

The fate of an FR...

Wait a second, Big Brother! What about a 4-wheel drive GT-R?!

Note: ATTESA E-TS - Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All-Electronic Torque Split Even if he floors it, with its ATTESA E-TS traction control system,

Note: ATTESA E-TS - Advanced Total Traction Engineering System for All-Electronic Torque Split wouldn't he be able to use all Of his turbo power?!

This is it!

This feeling!

This excitement that has every drop of my blood boiling!

This is what battling's all about!

The 8-6 is falling back.

He may have a big mouth, but Nakazato's good.

He's skillfully shifting his load to kill the understeer as he races.

It's a method of racing that brings the GT-R's power to life.

It's not particularly interesting, but he's not wasting any moves or leaving any openings.

This is no time for idle chit-chat, Big Brother.

If the NightKids end up taking down that 8-6 before we do, it'll be humiliating!

We'll see about that.

The first half has relatively long straightaways and a gentle slope.

A downhill specialist's true worth is brought out in the latter half, when the slope gets steep.

Gah! Would you look at that amazing drift!

Is that the Akina 8-6?

Intense!

I'm dreaming!

Ryousuke Takahashi's FC!

Why are three of them racing?!

You don't suppose...

this has turned into a battle for who's the fastest in Gunma!

Low speed hairpin curves are where the GT-R shines!

If you use its powerful brakes to carefully drop the car's speed,

then the load has no choice but to stay on the front wheels going downhill!

That makes it hard for the understeer, its greatest weakness, to come out.

And...

it's this moment that drives me wild.

The acceleration from low gear that no car can beat!

Not a shudder from its rigid body!

The machine that's strongest on the circuit track is also the strongest on the open road!

That "R" mark on the rear is the mark of invincibility!

Can you keep up with that R, 8-6?!

It's different...

Something's different.

You adjusted the chassis?

It'll understeer when you press the accelerator.

Understeer?! Bunta, what the hell were you thinking?

Takumi's a drift racer. With that setting--

You don't get it, do you?

If you have the skill, understeer in an FR will let you hold it at full throttle even longer.

All the more so when you drift.

Except I didn't tell Takumi that.

You didn't tell him?!

Changing the handling all of a sudden will confuse Takumi.

Telling him wouldn't have helped.

He's not the sort who can change his driving style by thinking about it.

All the more reason to have told him!

He might not have the skills in his head, but he's sure to sense it through his body.

It won't matter to him that the chassis was fiddled with slightly.

Bunta...

Takumi will get through this.

The 8-6 is a car that raises its driver.

It's different. It's definitely different.

No matter how hard I press, the car isn't disturbed.

I can push the car harder than I could till now.

It's not drifting too much, so I can floor it as much as I like...

I get it, Dad...

Is this why you closed the store and went out?

I don't quite get what you've done, but I know I like it!

Incredible! My eyes can't even follow them!

The trick that beat me!

Hooking his tire into the gutter...!

He's finally starting to take this seriously!

The 8-6 is catching up to me!

It can't be! That's impossible!

It's top-class. To think it's gotten this far

My opinions of the 8-6 being an old, under-powered car have been totally blown away!

It's a good machine with first-rate battle power, isn't it?!

I'm so happy, it's giving me chills!

I haven't had a battle this tasty since I started driving this car!

No matter how the 8-6 snaps at him as they enter the low-speed turns,

the difference in recovery acceleration just opens up the gap again.

But...

In high-speed turns, the 8-6 has the advantage!

"Attack the inside dead on" is a racer's creed, but...

he goes all out!

Skimming the guard rail with his bumper as he does a four-wheel drift at maximum speed,

he slips through in the shortest possible distance.

He doesn't make a single useless deceleration in order to keep that under-powered 8-6 from stalling.

Every drift he does is toward that end!

He's on a whole other level!

This isn't a question of the car's capabilities!

That bastard...

has got two or three screws loose in his head!

This pressure's incredible... You think I can't shake you?!

You son of a bitch!

I'm so glad to be alive!

I wonder where Takumi is now.

Probably pretty far down.

They're going at an outrageous speed, after all.

If that 8-6 is for real...

then it won't be long before the GT-R's weakness will start to work against Takeshi.

The GT-R's weakness?

What would that be?

Without a doubt...

its body weight.

Its body weight?

The understeer on a super-front heavy car like the GT-R is its weakness.

No matter how you might compensate by tuning the chassis and driving technique,

that doesn't change its basic characteristics.

Note: ABS - Antilock Braking System On a hard downhill, if you engage the ABS while continuing to force the steering control,

the front tires and the brake adjusters are sure to grow slack.

As he drives down to the base of the mountain,

he'll probably feel like he's wrestling that understeer as he enters every turn.

No matter how he's got the brakes tuned.

My front end response has gotten weird!

It feels like it's understeering!

Was the strain on the front tires a lot worse than I expected?

This is rough.

But there is no way I'm losing this!

Here they come!

The 8-6 is snapping at him!

Nakazato, the Speed King of Myougi, is fighting for his life!

I saw you get by Keisuke Takahashi on these five consecutive hairpins.

You can attack the inside all you like, but I'll die before I let you through!

Wh-what?!

He's coming from the outside?!

I won't be shown up by this kid!

Hey, did you see that?

That's nuts! He's trying to drift past him in that tight a space?!

From the outside again?!

You are pissing me off beyond belief!

The GT-R's handling pretty strangely.

Dammit, Nakazato, you're starting to lose focus.

Keep your eyes on them, Keisuke!

The 8-6 looks like it's about to pass him!

I see... I was so fixated on taking the inside,

I got on an unnatural line that messed up my entry.

If I can just keep him from passing, I can raise the entry speed!

And that'll swing the line out!

He'll have no way in!

He's gone!

Where is he? Where'd he go?!

The outside move was a feint!

He changed his line while on full brake?!

Brilliant. However...

if we stay side by side like this, I can open her up in 2nd gear and accelerate past him!

Now, see the latent power of the RB26!

I lost...

The GT-R... lost.

That's not right. The one that lost was me.

The GT-R didn't lose to that 8-6.

Shock is shock, but...

It feels strange and invigorating.

Because I gave this everything, and still lost.

There are amazing people in this world.

Touge racing is both deep and vast.

You enjoyed that, didn't you, Keisuke?

It was amazing.

The 8-6's ABS ran that GT-R right down with its downhill braking...

Its performance was incredible.

What are you talking about? An 8-6 doesn't have ABS.

That guy's right foot worked better than a mechanically-controlled ABS.

I haven't been that excited in a long time.

I'm going to have to practically rewrite that article I'm working on.

That 8-6 really does make a tasty target to bring down.

Big Brother...

HUH?!

T-Takumi...!

He won?!

Seriously?!

We're confirming it now.

Looks like it's true.

No way!

Are you serious?

You were going to show everyone his true nature, Takeshi.

Now you can't act so high and mighty.

And once I beat that 8-6, then it'll be Shingo Shoji who'll lead the NightKids!

Just you wait, 8-6.

With some thrillingly dangerous rules, I'll send you to the chop shop.

Eat.

Thank you.

Hot...!

It seems so strange.

You have a totally different look in your eyes than before.

Huh? What's that supposed to mean?

Right now, you're normal Takumi.

But once you get in that 8-6 and fly off to the mountain at night,

you become the hero every racer in Akina longs to be now.

Is that how it is? Is that who I am now?

You're embarrassing me, Itsuki.

Only at the moment, you're just some dumb-ass eating manju.

I'm not a dumb-ass!

I feel it, too.

This kind of strange feeling inside of me.

But, I'm glad that what I do makes people happy.

It's incredible.

I see.

You have an unexpected need to please others, don't you?

Little by little, racing is becoming fun for me.

Iketani-senpai says his car's fixed.

Really? That's great.

Let's go up to Akina tonight, too.

Sure.

You look happy, Senpai.

Of course I am.

Because I finally got her back. My S13, Silvia.

Where'd they come from?!

They knocked my bumper?! What, is that "Out of the way, slowpoke"?!

Are you kidding me?!

T-Takumi...!

Itsuki! Iketani-senpai! Are you okay?

I... I think we're okay.

Apologize? You got to be kidding!

Don't give me that! You hit us on purpose!

One mistake and we could've been seriously hurt!

Which is why, no matter how many times you say it, it's obviously your fault.

I didn't expect you to enter that turn so slow.

Nobody would have been able to hit the brakes in time.

What?!

That was a nasty way to put it.

If you're telling us to apologize,

I have no problem with that.

Our rules say we get down on hands and knees to whoever wins a downhill battle.

I'll even take on that 8-6 driver, if you like.

You're the downhill specialist, right?

What're you gonna do?

Gonna do it or not?

You gonna do it or not?

You big bad SpeedStars!

If you lose, you'll get down on your hands and knees and apologize?

Don't take the bait, Takumi!

You don't know what they might try!

There's no way I'll lose to guys like them, Iketani-senpai.

Hold it. You mentioned some sort of rules before.

Yeah.

It's nothing special. We call it a duct tape deathmatch.

We tape our right hands to the steering wheel, and then battle like that.

That's all.

Don't! Don't do this, Takumi!

This is crazy! It's too dangerous!

Do you understand what's going on here?

You won't be able to change your grip on the wheel!

You'll barely have control of your front wheels!

How will you manage to turn through the corners?!

He'll be under the same conditions, won't he?

He's got to have practiced doing it!

That's why he imposed this rule!

This is too dangerous, even for you! Don't do it, Takumi!

I'm not backing out of this, Iketani-senpai.

I don't know why, but I'd rather die than lose to a guy like this.

Takumi...

See you later, Mr. 8-6!

Go!

Th-there they go...

We're going, too!

Forget it, we'll never keep up!

I don't plan to!

But if Takumi wrecks, we'll have to help him as soon as we can!

There's no need for two downhill specialists.

The Gunma area's downhill speed king drives an EG-6 Civic for the Myougi NightKids...

Shingo Shoji.

Let's see how many corners you can clear.

One down...

How'd he recover from that position?

But, it's just a matter of time...

For an FR, no matter how much of a drifting expert the driver is,

he can't stop its oversteer if he can't countersteer.

Yeah, but...

an FF can stop the oversteer with its accelerator, and enter the corners as fast as he likes.

And by pulling to the side, the understeer disappears, too.

Yeah, under these rules, without an FF, you're 100% guaranteed to wreck.

An FR driver who doesn't wreck...

would be a monster.

Each time he clears a corner, my heart pounds.

I keep seeing that 8-6, smashed flat, appearing in front of me.

I think Takumi will be okay.

If it's him, then...!

How? How can he turn?!

A duct tape deathmatch out of nowhere isn't easy!

Well? I can pass any time I want to!

Come on! Come on! Go faster!

Hit those corners harder and wreck!

It's working...

It's flying even faster...

...than usual!

It's faster to turn without relying on the wheel!

What is this?

No matter how much pressure I put on him, he doesn't break!

If anything, he's going faster and faster!

It doesn't matter.

All you have to do in a contest is win!

No matter how you do it!

Shit!

Lucky kid! In that case, I'll just leave him in the dust!

This is it!

This sound as it slams into the red zone!

This euphoria!

I love it so much, I could die! I can't take it!

You did that on purpose.

So help me...

I won't lose to scum like you!

This isn't happening!

How can he be catching up?! I can't go any faster than this!

What the hell is that 8-6?!

He's not using the wheel!

He's turning by load shifting alone!

Wh-what was that?!

Just now... how did he pass me just now?!

If I lose a duct tape deathmatch that I challenged him to...

I'll be the laughingstock of the team.

I'll never recover from it!

Even if this ends in a tie, I have to try and save face!

This battle will end...

IN A DOUBLE-CRASH!

My EG-6...

Holy shit, he crashed.

Hey, you all right, man? You hurt?

It looks like the kickback broke my right arm when I hit.

Get in. We'll take you to the hospital.

It'll be way faster than calling an ambulance.

I can't accept your help.

Don't be unreasonable.

It hurts, right? Let us handle this.

We're used to doing stuff like this.

Don't be shy. We're all equals when we wreck.

And we're locals, so we know where the emergency hospital is.

Yeah, that's right!

Thanks. I owe you.

He won. Takumi did...

That guy... is incredible.

TOFU AND ABURAAGE FUJIWARA HANDCRAFTED TOFU

I kind Of Snapped in the middle Of it.

I don’t even know What happened after that.

We do tend to Snap, you and me both.

Except I absolutely wouldn't have gotten hit.

So... did you win?

Yeah.

I see.

Itsuki and Iketani-senpai and all the other racers love their cars and treat them well...

while I...

I'm sorry.

That's a hell of a scrape.

Maybe I'll take the opportunity to change the sheet metal.

It's hot today!

GENERAL

Man, you are amazing!

NOW We'll be rid Of people coming to Challenge Akina'S downslope.

I don’t think SO.

Huh?

BECAUSE Gunma's pretty high level, and there are lots Of Skilled racers buzzing around.

And I doubt RyOUSUke Takahashi from the RedSuns is going to stay quiet.

Ryousuke Takahashi, huh?

That guy's fast.

Huh?!

In the battle with the GT-R, there was a white RX7 keeping up with us.

At the time, it was all I could do to catch up with the GT-R,

but when I remembered it later, I was really curious.

That much, I know for certain.

I think he's really fast.

Faster than anyone I've met so far.

Really? I suppose he is.

Hey, Takumi.

If someone that incredible challenges you to a battle, what'll you do?

Huh?

There's no way you'd accept it, right?

If something like that were to happen...

I think...

I'd want to give it a try.

Huh?!

Huh?! Huh?!

Oh!

I finally found you!

Mogi?

What's Mogi doing here?

Takumi, you only told me you work at a gas station, so I've been looking all over before work!

Why?

Because, I wanted to see it! You at work!

Itsuki, who's the girl?

A classmate from school.

Your belly button's showing.

So what? It's supposed to!

Akina Flowers

Could I get a signature?

Let's see... it's addressed to Mr. Panda Trueno.

"Panda Trueno"?

Takumi, that's you, isn't it?

Me?

You got a bouquet, Takumi?

Hm...

Who's it from?

Oh, there's a letter!

Hurry up! Hurry up!

Well, well? Who is it? Who is it?

Hey, who's it from?

August 27th, 10:00PM. I'll be waiting at the top of Mt. Akina. Ryousuke Takahashi

Mimi wo fusaidemo kikoeru kodou Even if you block your ears, you can still hear the heartbeat

Kasoku shiteku michibikidasu seikai kotae nante nai Accelerating, and there's no right answer that you can derive

Hey daddy tell me "I wonder why those people fight?"

For their name? For their cash? Or for their pride?

Kazaranai massagu tsukisasu your eyes Unadorned, straight ahead, piercing, your eyes

I'm going down!

(I'm going down!)

But everybody's saying "we're right" all the time!

Cuz zettaiteki seigi wo kakagetai Cuz I want to set out what's absolutely right

They're never turning back, hiteisaretakunai They're never turning back, don't wanna be negated

But It's falling down!

(It's falling down!)

Hiraita kizu ni Into those open wounds

Kako wo surikonde Grind the past

wasurarenai itami omoidashite Remembering the unforgettable pain

Nukihanatsu my blade I unsheathe my blade

Ima HERO ni natte Now, I'll become a hero

"Kono sekai wo sukuu" to ka sonnan janakute It doesn't have to be one who says "I'm gonna save the world"

Koe kareru made Because I want to sing

Tonari de nakimushi na Till my voice is gone of a future where you,

Kimi ga warau mirai wo utaitai kara The crybaby next to me, is laughing

Tatakai tsuzukeru I fight on

Who the fuck do you think you're talking to? Dumbass!

Don't get carried away hanatare ga kojirasu Don't get carried away, your snotty nose just makes it worse

Iki wa ii ga, torima should I kick 'em asses? It's good to be alive, but for now should I kick their asses?

Koe ga chisee na whatcha say huh? I can't hear you, whatcha say, huh?

When I close my eyes

Kimi no namida ga yakitsuite Your tears scorch

Mune ni tsuyoku chikai mou mayoi wa nai! In my heart, I swear a strong vow and it all becomes clear!

Ima HERO ni natte Now, I'll become a hero

"Kono sekai wo sukuu" to ka sonnan janakute It doesn't have to be one who says "I'm gonna save the world"

Koe kareru made Because I want to sing

Tonari de nakimushi na Till my voice is gone of a future where you,

Kimi ga warau mirai wo utaitai kara The crybaby next to me, is laughing

Itsuka kimi to mirai de I want to create a world

"Ano toki wa tsurakatta" tte waraiaeru you na Where, someday, in the future, you and I can laugh together

Sekai ni shitakute And say "Those were tough times, huh?"

Uchitsukeru ame no naka In the driving rain

Harewataru kimi e omoikogashite Pining for you to clear it away

Tatakai tsuzukeru I fight on
