OH YEAH BABY!!! I really like how the last three episode were going. I hope it continue :D |
|
| Mika is in highschool?!?! mind blown |
| I'd lol if Takumi drives the subi against the AE86 |
| IG: @ChrisCrossCrash "There isn't a single guy who doesn't want to spoil his girl." --Amagami SS |
| heh nice that Ryusuke survives that Shingami GTR lol, and wow AE86 vs AE86 on downhill (again) but this time Takumi wil go against that genius kid |
| Liking the new hood on Keisuke's FD. |
 |
| Oh boy this is going to be awesome! Looking forward for the last 3 episodes! |
 |
| if Takumi loses i will be really annoyed |
 |
| >wait for you song started playing Damn i missed this song so much. |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| So what's the deal... they just race into the toll booth all the time? lol That really should have finished last episode, rather than the needless cliffhanger. Nice setup for the final race. |
  |
| What a lackluster conclusion to this arc, first a "zone", then "wings", and now the scent of a dead person out of nowhere, really? They could've made her present in a more subtle way or something, and then that talk after the race, similar to the one between Shingo and Iketani, maybe worse, Hojo could've killed Ryousuke at least two times, but Ryousuke was like: "oh, you weren't serious, there's no problem!", even though Hoje resented him without a proper reason, even though he was one of the responsibles for driving the woman he loved to a corner, they still talked like nothing happened, just a "race", and mysteriously enough it served as closure to both of them. The only "saving grace" is that he was the one that made Ryousuke into a racer, and that the guy that was following with the obnoxious commentaries had a purpose for being there, but this was so underwhelming. And then the rest, with nothing new or good as usual, just the loser duo + Itsuki worried about Takumi's chances at winning, and some side characters saying that they are going to lose, and now we know that they are going to win for sure, not that I doubted it before. At least that boy that saw the wings also drives a 86, and he is both young and talented, at least I think he is the downhill racer here, but welp, next. |
 |
| I hope the race will be great |
 |
| Fucking finally that battle is over. I was tired of all those Ave Maria interludes. Now for the climax. |
A thrilling conclusion to the death match. Ikeda's help was much appreciated. I felt sorry for their brakes, though. And Mika learned that her school uniform is not suitable for practising golf swings. |
| This felt like a pointless interlude. And here we go again, underestimate 86? You lose to 86 |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Hahaha, I knew it - red car helped Ryousuke with braking. :D What an awesome scene it was! |
| Good resolution to the "battle". Unfortunately Shinigami didn't go flying down the cliff :( |
 |
| The zero theory guy helping Ryosuke save the grim reaper was unexpected. |
 |
| Great resolution for the battle now for 2 main upcoming races |
| takumi and mika are already dating? i mean he didn't really confirm nor deny it when she called herself his girlfriend, W takumi then. keisuke's car looks cooler with the black hood now. two more huge races incoming. |
 |
| Building up for the last few episodes I don't know where this thing goes since theres another whole season say it's even half a season for the final stage this would probably end up in a cliffhanger I suppose. |
