I can go as far as I want.
Faster and farther than anyone.
Where in the world is the limit? I can't see it yet.
Just look forward and forge ahead.
Fight recklessly.
Until you conquer and win.
If you want to snatch it away no matter what...
...don't give up till the end. (Get Through the Night.)
When we look straight at the faraway place...
...our thoughts come together as one.
IGPX!
Go For It!
Stand firm and stay arrogantly stubborn.
Don't look back if it's the course you set.
Let's rise to the top of the very best.
If you stop, it's all over right there.
Show Fight!
Where are my dad and mom?
The master and mistress have already gone to work.
I see.
Madam Amy, you're alone all the time, but you're strong and mature.
As expected of one with brilliant parents, Amy.
That's Amy, the genius girl.
Since you're so persistent, I'll get up...
...but I wonder if this world is so worthwhile.
I'm sorry, Amy.
I can't come home today due to work.
I see.
And Dad?
He's returning tomorrow due to a lecture.
Let's have dinner when he's back.
I love you, Amy.
I love you too, Mom.
Tomorrow is too late...
You are the best right now.
Fight proudly.
You cannot lose.
Sir! Yes, sir!
It seems you'll be able to put my lessons into practice this season.
Do some light training today to prepare for tomorrow's race.
Sir! Yes, sir!
No chance of rain.
It should be clear the rest of the week.
Thank you for watching.
For your precious cat.
Luca brand cat food with all the essentials.
Naturally, this is what Luca, the IG machine pilot, also eats.
Amy, today is...
Hold it, Luca. Don't talk about it.
I wonder if everyone forgot.
Probably.
I'd like to give you a present, but I can't use a credit card.
I know.
Oh, that was a joke.
I know.
Amy!
Your course is sloppy! Focus!
I wish he could understand me.
If they understood everything you say, they'll feel down.
Hey, that's rude.
Basically, there's no problem.
We did everything we could before tomorrow's Velshtein race.
Looks like Luca's saying something.
Maybe he's hungry.
Sounds like he's saying "no."
I'll ask him for details later.
By the way, where's Takeshi?
He's not in the training room.
Going to the IGPX course, he said.
There shouldn't be any races today.
You didn't know?
Takeshi goes to the course by himself sometimes.
Huh?
It's not our first meeting, but it is our first introduction.
Team Velshtein's leader, Cunningham.
Team Satomi's Takeshi.
Looks like you enjoy being on the course, too.
I see you sometimes.
An empty course calms me. You too, Mr. Cunningham?
Drop the "Mr." part.
We're pilots racing on equal footing tomorrow.
Okay, Cunningham.
You're direct.
About the answer to your question, I won't give it now.
If your team beats us...
...I'll tell you then.
I apologize if you're annoyed.
I said we were on equal footing before...
...but there's a huge difference in skill.
I consider myself a genius when operating an IG machine.
And I put a lot into it.
If I'm a bit cocky, I'd like you to put up with it.
I hear you practice "iaido."
Could you show me your technique?
Sure.
See how much I've put in?
Yes...
But what I just did may not be all I've got. What do you think?
The same goes for me.
Takeshi, as I thought, you're interesting. My hunch was right on.
Hunch?
A hunch that you're "interesting."
I don't mean to be.
That's what's great about you.
I'm glad we talked. See you.
Uh, not at all. Me, too.
You're tardy, Takeshi.
Tardy?
I guess I am.
River, got a sec?
What is it?
I'm a fast draw.
That's why I asked.
All right.
If you get hurt, I'll go out in tomorrow's race.
If so, I'll count on you.
Ow...
He is awesome, after all.
What's going on?
I'll never forgive Takeshi!
It wasn't on purpose.
Everyone's being deceived by his facade.
You think?
I do.
You'd better be careful.
Want to see a movie this weekend?
You must be feeling better, right?
Ouch!
Amy, you're kind of gloomy today.
Why do you say that?
I kind of thought so. You're not?
I'm not.
I never felt anything.
Because you're insensitive.
Amy's down for sure. Right?
I'm not!
Huh?
Was she really down?
Or did you make her down, Liz?
I didn't!
Everyone says that.
Yes, I've confirmed Luca's schedule for the next commercial.
Thank you.
Isn't today...
Oh, how rare...
Seeing you here, Amy.
To tell the truth, this is my favorite place.
You too, Jesse?
Is it surprising? I understand.
But to be cheerful all the time...
...you need to charge your energy somewhere.
My parents were busy at work, and I've always been alone.
But I wasn't lonely, and I did my best.
I studied hard, and people made a big deal about my genius.
But I couldn't make friends...
Then I met Luca by accident...
...and found my place here.
But sometimes...
...I worry if everything is fine the way it is.
That's natural.
I may not sound too convincing...
...but I think we're very lucky to have you here.
I feel lucky, too.
Needless to say, the Velshtein bunch is strong.
Normal tactics won't beat them.
I feel like I'm always hearing the same speech.
So what should we do? The race is tomorrow.
There's nothing we can do.
I knew it.
Just one thing.
Believe that you'll win.
Those who win believe they will win.
You can't win unless you do.
Only those who want to win can win.
Have a will to win.
That's all.
Say, do you have plans for dinner?
Oh, sorry.
I have plans.
Okay, I understand.
Takeshi?
I really hate to turn down a lady's invitation...
...but I can't today.
I see...
Not to be forward before you ask...
...but I have important business, too.
I understand.
See you.
Later.
It might be a bit lonesome today...
Luca?
Where are you?
Luca?
Luca!
Stop joking around and come out.
Happy birthday, Amy!
Did we surprise you, Amy?
Happy birthday, Amy.
Really... happy birthday.
Everyone...
Thank you.
Amy, keep up the good work.
Right!
I'll never forget about today for the rest of my life.
No, no.
It was really like this.
You're all right now.
Let's become friends.
Your name is...
...Luca.
Good morning, Luca.
It feels great this morning.
You say I'm selfish?
Yeah.
I've certainly done things that would cause you to call me that.
I'm glad you're here.
Well, let's give it our best today!
I'm a failure as a mother to forget my daughter's birthday.
Your father feels bad, too.
Will you forgive such no-good parents?
Of course!
You're my wonderful mom and dad who let me play in the IGPX.
Wow, that's great.
Thank you.
Cunningham, yesterday...
Huh?
He wouldn't acknowledge an opponent talking out of the blue.
You have no manners.
Huh?
"Huh" what?
Everyone's misunderstanding me.
No.
You misunderstand everyone misunderstanding you.
It can't be...
Takeshi, let's channel that frustration in the race!
Amy...
You sure sound like you're a year older.
Cunningham, do you know Team Satomi's Takeshi?
No, I've only seen his face.
He sounded friendly, though.
Maybe he was nervous before the race against the champions.
Finally, the Team Velshtein vs. Team Satomi race is beginning!
Go on, my wolves.
Show them who the king of this world is!
Velshtein has two wins, no losses.
Satomi has one win, one tie, not bad for IG-1's newcomers.
Can they show us another miracle in today's race?
Huh?
I'm feeling relaxed now.
Then you were nervous till now?
Hard to believe.
Really.
It's time.
Well, I don't think we can beat the champions...
...but what's important is how they fight.
Is that from our "extremely able" coach?
If we win today, I'll buy both of you dinner.
You plan to win?
My birthday was yesterday.
We need goals in life, right?
So I tried to think of a present for you two.
And you chose dinner?
You must think we're cheap.
Today's easy.
I agree.
Team Satomi is no match for us.
Don't ease up.
Team Satomi is...
Takeshi is...
...someone to watch out for.
All machines are returning on the homestretch to finish the first lap!
Let's go like challengers. I'll beat Cunningham!
I won't stop you today!
I won't, either!
The battle begins. Team Satomi pursues boldly!
The distance to Velshtein is closing!
They'll catch up.
No.
Velshtein is slowing down.
Do you hear, Takeshi? It's a trap! Takeshi!
I know, but there's no other way.
This is to beat him!
Come on, Takeshi.
I'll annihilate you!
The orange-colored sunset...
...dyes the colors of the scenery.
Soon night will fall.
It's a little chilly, isn't it?
Frustrations of today.
Sadness and quietly concealed tears.
All will change into tomorrow's radiance.
Don't worry.
I'll hug you tightly, tightly.
It'll be fine.
Keep believing in your feelings.
I'll smile more and more for you.
Though this is all I can do.
I want to be by your side even so.
I whisper in my heart, "I love you."
