Hoooomygat I LOVED this episode!

Yay Onoda! Creepy guy is still really creepy, but let's put that fact aside for now.

Go Makishima!! Catch up to Toudou! I can't wait for more of their past to be revealed.

I like Makishima's personality the most, he is probably the kindest out of the team, always putting others before him and never putting his own desires first. Onoda being a climber was probably the best thing that happened to him, and you can truly see his gratitude for Onoda joining the club from the flashback. If there was anyone who has pure faith in Onoda, it would be Makishima.

That's almost unbelievable, I wish there was a specific time frame for how long it took him, because they made it seem like it took him just over 3 minutes.

I really do love the short scenes after the credits role, and this one is prolly one of my favs after seeing Imaizumi sing Hime song in the bath (i think it was eps 2 or 3 haha)

But dayuuum

That Initial-D's-gutter-run-like technique! :D

What's Midousuji doing? Is he really planning to make his team win or just be third? The only teams that really look like they could win this race are Hakone and Sohoku.

Epic achievement to Onoda for beating that 100-man barrier (including Midousuji at that!) and actually catching up! Now waiting for the Toudou vs Makishima! Kuh~! Can't wait!!!

You have to check out Chihayafuru. It's also one of those sports animes where "everything passes by in a minute"

Chihayafuru was amazing! I loved everything about it. I highly recommend it as well. Both seasons got a 9/10 from me.

I really dislike that creepy guy. I bet he never looked at the mirror thus he doesn't realize how gross he is. Maki-chan thanking Onoda via the captain was quite touching. He was the happiest one because Onoda is back. And that Maki-chan impersonation made me giggle.

I thought that i will hate it if Onoda actually manages to pass all 100 of them in 3 minutes...and yes it was unrealistic as hell, but...i just can't hate it when i see how happy they are and how hard Onoda was trying to make his nakama happy! Also, Makishima can finally race-climb with Toudou ;_;
Midousuji is so fucking creepy.When he was staring at Onoda in one of those scenes i couldnt stand it and i had to look away.I feel sorry for Imaizuni.

Okay, 100 ppl in 3 minutes, okay.
But WTF 65 ppl are riding ahead of Sohoku and Hakone?! Onoda passed 100 and saw his team immediately, he was no. 176 when he'd been last, so 175-100-10=65 o_O

They only need their ace climbers to get the checkpoint so there is no need for their whole team to be at the top when they could be saving energy instead.

And it does make sense if you think about it, in real life road race most of the participants are only within minutes of each other so to get pass 100 people in 3 minutes is quite possible.

And I just noticed that when Makishima said that Onoda only needed 3 minutes to pass 100 people, it was at the same time Onoda had already passed 45 people. That makes it even more plausible. But it's anime who cares about realism this episode was intense anyways xD

Even though passing 100 people in 3 minutes seems unrealistic, I found this episode truly inspiring and motivational. Sohoku is a very solid team and after seeing each member's goals and hard work, I've come to love every single one of them

I think Midousuji's special move is freaking people out so they lose their rhythm. Seriously, he likes to make people doubt themselves or throw them mentally off balance, and once that didn't work, Onoda was home free. Not that he's not a strong opponent. I'm sure he has more than that up his sleeve. He's biding his time for something, I can feel it. ;^; Creepy. That teeth clicking and the way he stares. *shudder*

Unrealistic, very superpower-ish, but surprisingly, I don't hate it. I think that's because Onoda's feelings reached me, another factor is Toudou and Makishima's rivalry, I want Makishima to be able to go ahead and fulfill the promise.

When Onoda (and me) found out that Midousuji is the 100th rider, I got chills, I thought something bad would happen, like Midousuji purposely tripping Onoda or something like that. Surprisingly, he didn't. It seems like there is more to him than I expected, he doesn't seem so bad when he said "gross" the last time in this episode.

Lol @ post credit imitation part.

best episode yet

Midousuji calling Onoda "gross, gross, gross, gross!" gave me so much life
I couldn't stop cackling
A character in the anime that has the same opinion as me? amazing
And: "I KNEW THOSE EYES LOOKED GROSS" <-- best one-liner ever

Thanks Midousuji. You said all I've ever said about Onoda TO HIS FACE. /clap

5/5
would definitely rewatch this episode again

Man, this series fucking infuriates me. Some parts are 9/10 worthy and other parts are 2/10 worthy, with many parts soundly around 5-6/10. Sigh...

Onoda passing the pack was some Initial D shit.

It's like when you are in a difficult pinch, you automatically start singing your favorite songs just like Onoda, it didn't give him the strength, it kinda psychologically eased the burden that was put on him, cause passing 100 people and knowing that everyone relies on you is not easy, so he kinda subconsciously started singing it and it helped him. I understand that cause i was doing that as well, not the same song though and not all out loud but similar <3
OH i just loved how his team trusted in him,Tadokoro having that Ehe-hee face really made me like this episode even more. NAkama power!!! everyone believes in him, they are so friendly Ahh. and Onoda is riding at his best speed trying to catch up to them knowing they are waiting.
NIce to see that Midosouji acknowledged Onoda <3 in his weird way. And wth is this riding technique O_O
Loved seeing that flashback of how Makishima wanted a climber and he saw a climber in Onoda and was so happy <3 He even told Kinjou to send him the message that he is grateful for him being a climber and catching up. MAkishima is grateful cause because of Onoda being a climber they can win the Inter high, now all is left for Makishima to do his magic and CRUSH Toudou <3

Impersonating senpais at the end was very funny. I love Onoda's impersonation of Tadokoro. haha funny lol.

Midousuji really is a supernatural force lol. It's unrealistic as hell for sure but Onoda passing 100 people in 3 minutes and riding on the gutter got me super pumped. Makishima has a lot of distance to make up to reach Toudou but we'll finally see their last battle. If only Onoda didn't fall...

So it was Midousuji and Kyoto who were preventing the pack from catching up. Forgot about that detail.

Well, cool to have an episode focussed on a challenge for Onoda. Can't deny it was forced development, but nonetheless awesome and now he's on everyone's radar. Even Mido acknowleged him being special.

Now time for the climber duel.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron
