For some reason they have moved all the flashbacks from the 3rd day forward, which makes me wonder what they will do if they ever make a second season.

i would be pretty upset of there was not a second season - i look forward to this show every week. would love to see a arakita spinoff haha.

Good episode although the pacing slowed down a little.


Noticed that too. Haha, I see they included Arakita history. I thought that part was weird because I haven't read that in the manga! :)

I keep forgetting about Midousuji, so whenever he shows up I think, "Right that creepy ass lanky bastard is riding too."

Well, I'll be damned! Midosuji comes out of nowhere. If he wins... *speechless*

On the other hand, all I heard from Arakita's mouth was noise! Ara ara!! So annoying.

I just knew Midousuji will pop up somewhere...like hell he's going to let anyone besides him win.
Neverthless, it was an awesome episode with lots of flashbacks, not really a fan of Arakita here, but his and Fuku's past is really interesting.

Imaizumi's character growth over the seasons has been great! I can't imagine ep 1 Imaizumi doing what he did in this episode.

Midosuji! That was a shock! I was so absorbed with Arakita's back story that I completely forgot about him and when he showed up I was like 'aaaaaahhhhh whhaaaaat?'

I would certainly love to know more about Akira Midosuji and how did he became like this. No human is bad from the birth, it's just life that shapes our personalities and this Akira dude probably saw tons of crap in his life, maybe even to such extent that is not fit to this anime. xD Also, from omake we see that Arakita is actually a nice guy, even too nice, unfortunately for that cat.

Flashback again? Damn. I don't like the fact Imaizumi is actually keeping up with Arakita, but I guess I could accept that he couldn't get past Arakita. Captain vs Captain should be good, but Midousuji, wow, he just came out of nowhere lol wtf, without any assistant, that's too much to be honest..

It's cuz he worked hard for it. But most people are blinded by his 'evilness' and overlooked his hardwork.

You mean to tell me the 2 captains did not worked hard? Or you mean to say Midousuji is league above those 2 in talent?

Arakita is now hands down my favorite character ever. Yankees are the best.

Also I really liked this episode, probably because there's next to no Onoda in it.

MIDOSOUJI OUTTA NOWHERE LOL. Thanks for waiting Lmao.
Damn Arakita is loud. he is the type of person who never seems to be happy :P nice that he acknowledged Imaizumi. Imaizumi was great this episode, keeping up with 3rd years is incredible to say the least. Kinjou's wise words were nice,saying how they are way worse than them anywhere, but what they need to do is grow, and not copy opponents style, but grow your own. Imaizumi understood it well.
Arakita's riding style is way too dangerous, he is riding so recklessly damn.... He is the typical delinquent as it turned out. saw similar stories many times. I really wonder how Fuka-chan remained so calm after Arakita dropped his bike and pressed him towards the water machine. Like i was sure he is gonna hit him, i can't believe his face didn't change at all, he wasn't fazed at all. I don't understand... he really seems like a pushover.
I like how Imaizumi accepted that Arakita is better than him btw. Kinjou seemed proud of him at the end thanking him for carrying him through.
Didn't understand anything about being a bad boy o_o

Completely forgot about Midousuji... great. Here I was, rooting for the aces and then this creepy guy from the wrong anime (he should be in the horror genre) pops up with that grin- oH THAT GRIN.

A fierce battle of the aces' assistants with build-up from previous episodes, hearfelt backstory, struggles, all that good stuff, and the hopes of their entire teams riding on their respective aces' backs. Only for Midousuji to unexpectedly show up and pass everyone. I don't know about character, but I love him as a sinister force lol. Also Arakita's riding style seems way too dangerous. :/

The ace assistant duel made up for another intense episode. We had some focus on Arakita and I really like that dude. Not top favorite character, but that speaks more for the cast than him not being likeable.

The duel also made you forget about Midousuji lmao. That manisch is crashing the party and even the OST. It was funny how him pulling up didn't fit at all.

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

Good to see Arakite moved forward by starting cycling instead of staying a punk with a slow scooter (especially one that can't overtake a 80 km/h going downhill bicycle).
Intense end but too bad that creepy bastard had to ruin the cool moment with his ugly face.
