----------------------------------------
Not bad, this episode shows Sakamachi going head to head against Midosuji. This rivalry seems a bit strange although still intense.

I just love how the guy screams out HIMEEEEEEEEEEEEE :D

And also, I thought the episode told a good story with Sakamachi's character building on the road. Definitely met my expectations anyways. Oh and Midosuji going all psycho again lol

Onoda making it back despite falling off track. He really is like a princess that never lets go xD

Catching up to the aces already. Imaizumi awakening Onoda's will to win for himself, looking forward to this hidden potential Onoda has.

Midousuji with that eating habit and head tilting! The name exchanges with Imaizumi was quite enjoyable. That composure Imaizumi is showing is really bringing Midousuji out!

Midousuji is a too good of an all-rounder :O

Midousuji really is gross. Good thing Imaizumi is able to get in front of him every time Midousuji tries to pass him.

God this was intense like yoooo (even though I accidentally spoiled the interhigh results for myself a few weeks ago, so now it is a little less tense for me)
Imaizumi was great in the ep, finally overcoming Midousuji (KIMOISUJI!!!), and Midousuji was gross.
The only issue was the SEVERE lack of Makishima in that ep like *deep sigh* I know the focus is on the front pack but stillll... like last week gave him a decent amount of screentime with his little monologue ;-;

Midousuji = Zombie?

Well, they've caught up to the aces. Even Onoda when he rode off track.

LOL, Midousuji's face when Manami wanted to shake hands on a good race.

Imaizumi holding his ground against Midousuji; even calling him Grossuji.
Hakone is well aware about Onoda's will to protect Imaizumi.

Took me a bit to figure out what game they were playing during the post credits.
So ironic with Fukutomi's last word.

Onoda's stamina is definitely infinite! Running off the course in such an intense moment just to be able to catch up once again was an amazing scene! Although, I really wish he'd already sing his famous "Hime Hime" song. >.<

Dat tongue movement though.. Midousuji probably turned on a lot of people with that. XD

Since when Imaizumi became this badass!? Loved how quickly he countered Midousuji's sudden advancement and called him Kimoisuji! I think he's indeed acting like Kimoizumi in a way now. XD

Midousuji's eating scene was too hilarious! So gross, yet so epic! Too much SHAFTing going on with each of his neck movements. Did he just look pregnant for a second there? XD

Great episode! Shiritori game in the Omake was pretty funny too! That moment when Fukutomi realized he just busted himself. XD

Holy Shit!! Midosuji got pregnant O_o XD

Anyway friggin EPIC episode!!!

Onoda's catching up was just so cool!! Midosuji keeps getting hit from the back from where he's not expecting it lol...Dat Onoda drift doe. Good job keeping up after the out of track slide there.

How the hell did Imaizumi become this BA though O_o!! He's owning Midosuji like nothing XD The way he just passed Midosuji after being passed in an insant asking him "Where do u think ur going" DAMN!! BOSS!! It's reminding of me when Goku first became SS and owned Frieza no matter what he tried lol XD...Dat "Kimousuji" comeback was friggin HILARIOUS XD I LMAO'd!! BURN LOLOLOL

And now Onoda has the goal of winning set in mind. Can't wait to see the result >.< HYPE

This was a great episode.

I love this Imaizumi epicness here.

Still after finishing the episode I updated my MAL and remembered that there are only 5 episode left...

-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

There is a lot to look forward in those 5 episodes though
Although... was it 6 kilometres left or so... so it will be one kilometer for each ep? (But in twenty minutes one can ride much more than that... who cares :)

Anyway even though it probably wont be that

I want Onoda to be the first at finishing line which he will achieve with overpowerness of HIME!

Ending of dreams :)

I can see Onoda taking the win here =) Onoda would be an amazing ace, he can sprint in straight road like crazy, as well as climb.

I'm done speculating at this point lol. I'm not even gonna be mad if Onoda wins...I think. Dude's just so gritty. Hell I'm finding myself rooting for Kimosuji. I burst into laughter at at least three of his reactions this episode.

I just don't wanna see Hakone win, even if its Manami, but I have a bad feeling about that.

That end card change, as nice as it was, I think they did it to confirm what we thought might be nip was indeed just handlebar :/

When did Imaizumi get so cool omg? And, what's up with Midousuji's flappy tongue like every episode with Midousuji has some weird close up of his tongue flying around... Manami's a really interesting guy, and I'm glad he's getting more screen time :D Haha Midousuji and Imaizumi are kind of pretty juvenile, like the names they call each other XD omg Grossmaizumi and Grosssuji and Chripmaizumi?!!? What even... :3 Is the Inter-high ending next episode? I sort of feel like it'll be 2 more episodes (maybe 3)...

Is it just me that thinks Onoda and Imaizumi are portrayed like gods in this anime even though they are simply first years? Their ability to catch up from behind and evolve are limitless.... The three person race between Onoda, Manami and Midousuji seemed short lived though. I really want to see Imaizumi beat Midousuji because Midousuji really gives me the creeps... ~__~ll

Ironic as always, calling others gross while he's the grossiest.. (I wonder if he does that at home? Won't his younger sister/cousin be scared? She should be in middle school by now..i think)

I'm so glad Imaizumi is finally shining, he was my favourite character until a certain green haired spider took became my fave around episode 10. Like, I am glad he is finally fufilling the ace role he wants and is facing up against Midousuji, which is what he went on about at the start of the show.

Midousuji just went full on psychopath in this episode. It was hilarious. Haha His facial expressions have been getting more and more exaggerated with each episode.

Omake was good, but I don't think that it was one that would translate very well for those who don't speak Japanese.

Kimoizumi & Kimoisuji haha EPIC name callings!
Maybe Imaizumi is setting-up Onoda for the final spurt of win in the race by stopping Midousuji.
And the problems will be Fukutomi & Manami from Team Hakone, as well as on their side, Manami said to Fukutomi that Onoda Sakamichi is a threat!
Manami made Fukutomi like a fool on that omake/outro.

That was a good one. XD But I think my favorite so far would have to be when Midousuji ate the watermelon. It was just so....disturbing.

Imaizumi was freaking badass, I think I fell in love with him.
And I don't really think it's a cheap power up, it sounds pretty legit to me.

This new season is being 9-10/10 for me atm. Got goosebumps every episode.

oh yes, that was messed up
my faves are probably the pubes one, BANG, the one when they are in the bath singing 'hime hime' and the Makishima Ramsey one (which is what I call the one where Makishima has his own cooking show)

Terrible development for Imaizumi, he just suddenly changed without any transition. Bleh.

I felt like this too. Imaizumi really was a different person in this episode and even though he was becoming more serious and confident in the previous episodes it seemed like too big a difference. Although he faced Midousuji before I don't think he really had enough time to come to terms with everything he had against him, I felt as though there should have been a bit more conflict there. Had to be proud when he called him Kimousuji though!

Midousuji should really quit telling people that they're gross when he's the grossest one out of all of them.

Also... I never thought I'd say this (esp. not after watching Naruto and being graced by Orochimaru's nastiness time and again through the series) but Midousuji is hands down the most disgustingly nasty (not in an evil way but in a gross way) character I've ever seen in an anime so far.
