“The Domain That Lies Ahead”
「子の先の領域」
Arakitaaaa! Machimiyaaaa! The amount of shouting in this episode was actually kind of hilarious, but when you’re dealing with two serious yakuza potentials, it’s no wonder.
“The Fighting Dog of Kure”
「呉の闘犬」
Machimiya’s sob story leaves quite a lot to be desired and Arakita finds that he can’t quite hate the guy he used to be just like.
“The Pack Approaches”
「迫る、集団」
Well, pack solidarity didn’t last very long on either side.
“Those Who Have”
「持ってる男」
The third day of the race begins and Machimiya is a thorn in everyone’s side.
“The Three Kilometres to the Pharmacy”
「薬局までの３km」
The obligatory episode where Onodera and Midosuji kind of have a heart-to-heart that’s not really a heart-to-heart.
“Resolution”
「覚悟」
The second day of the race is over and Fukutomi takes the gold, with Kinjou in frustratingly close second and Midosuji third. I actually really thought that Kinjou would win, but alas, it wasn’t meant to be yet.
“Akira”
「翔」
The pre-requisite Midosuji episode, complete with depressing flashbacks and the outcome of the race!
“The Aces” 「エースたち」
As the episode title implies, it’s all about the aces, as their remaining companions literally launch them to the finish.
“Phase 49” 「フィズ４９」
Aaand we continue from last time with the last length of the race – which should span another few episodes – and it’s a race of the Aces to the finish, with only their helpers to carry them on.
