Good character development of Prince and Kakeru, that's what I've been waiting for! Pretty good episode, Prince always proving to be the best boy. One thing just bugged me out is why it's always lone girls in some sports anime (and other anime) terrible at cooking, imo it's overused. That jojo reference made me laughed though.

Jumping on the Kakeru x Ouji ship! Kufufu. Or Haiji x Kakeru x Ouji? XD

Can someone explain the Jojo reference or where it is, I’ve never seen it... thanks Armandoriel!!!

This episode was so beautiful! I found Ouji's running posture hilarious, but I understand that it had to be fixed. I love how everything is in terms of manga for him, totally understand the feeling!

I liked how Kakeru took the time to understand Prince's running habits. He improved so much!! It was nice to see them read manga together too. Kakeru's acting differently than usual. Probably from watching his friends run? It's a good different though I wonder if he'll get caught up in his past again.

Also... Haji is an amazing cook. I would eat his food ANYTIME.

More than the final twist of the previous episode, what magnetized my interest is what happens starting from the quotation of Ouji to Jojo onwards. Too funny is the so-called scene in which Ouji imitates and quotes the phrase inserted in the anime of Jojo, passing with the scene of Hana cooking for the boys, and ending with the qualification of Ouji at the Hakone race.

So proud of both Kakeru learning leadership/coaching & Prince improving, big leaps for their growth.
And the synchronized reading Prince mentioned previously pretty cool indeed.

One of the best episodes so far for sure.. Ouuuji san the struggle! That was a nice way for him to learn proper posture.. Really glad Kakeru was the one that helped him.

Haiji continues with the greatness speeches! "They will always watch you from behind but you will never be able to see them unless you turn around. You can't judge their eagerness and willpower without knowing where and how they run."

It was the perfect decision of Haiji to let Kakeru observe the meet in the last episode.

The OST in this anime is the GOAT. I wonder if this is the same composer from haikyuu? Gonna look it up for sure.

I got really worried for Haiji, but I'm glad he's fine huhu.
This is my favorite episode so far. To think that Kakeru helped Prince in his training when he previously shaded him in previous episode. I'm crying

I love seeing Prince level up. It's inspiring.
Love how he's bonding with Kakeru-- they're trying to understand each other :') they don't always get along, but it's a lot better than constantly clashing lol

That was also clever of Kakeru to merge manga and running together. Well, technically
Prince did it first, but Kakeru built upon the idea and it's going v well

JoJo references in my running anime, god bless.

That was such a great episode that made Prince and Kakeru grow so much, I'm so happy that he can finally see his teammates.

Prince's paleness is amazing, as pale as I.

Well, the entire episode focused on Prince, and I didn't mind it. He's read quite a few mangas though, he'd probably have one hell of a list on MAL.

So it only took Haiji to collapse for Kakeru to turn into a more likable character. That's convenient. I'm glad Kakeru and Oji are on better terms now. I guess Kakeru isn't a total d1ck.

JoJo References ✓

I really liked the scene in which Kakeru and Prince flipped the page at the same time while reading manga!

That was so good!!!!!! Kakeru genuinely helping Ōji & getting him to improve on his own ways & he even sacrifice his improved timing to spur him on. I loved that subtle scene where he checked his watch & knew he had already achieved a good timing. That was already enough for him. That was so nicely executed!

And sooo cute when he & Ōji were reading manga together. I loved this episode ♡ㅠㅡㅠ♡

The ending was brilliant where they celebrated their small yet meaningful victory. A victory that only they would understand, I was tearing up!

I fucking love this show man, the chemistry is just so good between all of them


It's really refreshing to get a show like this once in a while.

Finally Prince is under 30 minutes!
Though I still think the anime is exaggerating a bit in how slow he is compared to the times he's setting, 10km/h shouldn't be seen as basically walking which is what Prince is doing :P

I loved how Kakeru evolved too, not just seeing numbers anymore but genuinely caring for his team and seeing the fun of it.
