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!
Losing isn't an option!
All right!
My target is you, Takeshi.
Time for a walk!
Whoa, is this Team Edgeraid's new gear?
Takeshi's going for a walk on the course with rings on him!
That's League 1 for you.
Something smells funny.
Like something burning.
It can't be helped in a machine...
There's noise on the monitor.
I'll check.
I'm coming back.
The collar?
Not that, it's deeper.
The opponent!
I'll drag you around.
It's too noisy to think clearly!
Damn it!
You need obedience training.
Bye-bye, boy.
Takeshi, slow down! It's a trap!
I can manage!
All right.
Whoa, Takeshi slipped out of Team Edgeraid's ring!
But these movements...
Wandering on course like a kite with broken strings.
Is it machine trouble?
It won't move!
What's wrong?
Is it the cables?
No, the software failed?
If it's a control software error, the OS should work!
What's this?
Interesting.
Amy, sorry, but I'll leave machine control to you.
You're unguarded there!
Big chance!
Damn it...
Sorry, Luca says that he'll take control.
The driving mode check is yours.
Normal driving should be possible. Run!
Take this!
Here we go.
Here!
Back at you!
Could this be the problem?
Takeshi!
I'm your opponent!
This is it!
It's back!
Takeshi!
Good night, you two.
Amy, support me!
Nice!
What did you do, Luca? Amazing!
I can speak with you thanks to the IGPX software.
So I'm just a little chummy with the computer.
He says he's not bragging though.
But I'm really exhausted.
Luca, let's go!
Damn, the power's low.
Takeshi, behind me!
Thank you!
Damn it!
You won't get away!
I'll go all the way like this!
What an incredible last-minute melee!
The outcome is Team Satomi with first, second, and third places!
But just looking at the machines' states, it's unclear who won.
It turned out to be a pathetic race for Team Satomi!
Shall I lend a hand, Baron Feline?
Shut up, underdog.
Does the baron like basking in the sun?
We shouldn't intrude. Let's go back.
The way Takeshi's third lap went, it could be cable damage.
He might have suffered a total shutdown.
So a control software problem?
Well, this IGPX season is getting interesting!
The test run was problem free. Why out of the blue...
I'm unsure at this point.
No way...
All we can do is sort out the suspicious elements!
Max?
Interesting race.
It certainly was.
Takeshi!
Hey, why not go grab a bite? How about Chinese?
We can turn the table fast.
Luca is starving too.
Takeshi.
Sorry, I have plans.
A carefree date under these circumstances?
Am I wrong?
Liz...
Sorry.
I'll do better next time.
What do you think?
The machine trouble isn't untrue, but...
...that isn't the only problem.
That'll be a challenge...
Wow...
A simplified speed mode OS is installed solely in the head.
This booted it?
This is fast.
It's not just that. Luca's fixed portion is...
...shaped like a cat.
How cute!
How profound...
Can we fix it before the next race?
It'll be fine.
All we can do...
...is make Takeshi a machine in the best fighting condition.
That's the best way we can cheer him.
Now, let's recap the race once more!
Shumai, boiled dumplings, xiaolongbao, and...
...spring rolls.
They're all alike.
They're the basics.
Also, liver and leeks, pepper steak, and shrimp in chili sauce.
It's too much.
And almond tofu.
Takeshi!
Is your body all right?
Yeah.
I was worried since you were battered.
It sucks.
The cause of the trouble's unknown.
I'll have anything suspicious checked...
...but it might not be in time.
It's too late to go back to the older version of the OS.
Well, my condition isn't bad, so I'll win next time too.
True, and the season has just begun.
Yeah.
I wonder if Takeshi's okay.
I've never heard him say, "I'll do better next time."
Thanks to Lady Fantine...
...he'll be fine tomorrow.
I hope so.
This is yummy!
One more, please!
You're eating more?
A reaction to my childhood, maybe. I want to eat what I like as I please.
Sorry, it doesn't bother me, but it might bother you, huh?
Guess I lack tact since I was in an orphanage from day one.
That place is important to me.
Do you go back once in a while?
They must be thrilled that we won the championship.
Yeah...
I envy you.
You have a place and people dear to you inside your heart.
That must be the source of your strength.
Yeah...
They're in here all right.
All right, I'll do my best!
I don't want to look bad in front of them!
You were crying.
A crybaby shouldn't say that.
I wasn't crying!
What's wrong?
See you later.
Takeshi!
Give it your best in the next race.
Of course.
See you.
Right.
We didn't meet expectations... Is that what you think?
Team Satomi's fundamental power isn't like that.
It's a strong team supported by teamwork and trust.
We'll prove it to you in the next match.
This is awful.
They were both dragged by Takeshi too...
I acknowledge your strength more than anyone.
But...
This...
...isn't like you.
If you're like this in the next race...
Shut up!
Then what was that?
Where'd the old Takeshi go?
Quit assuming!
I'm not!
Don't talk like you know!
His own imagination is hurting him.
The one constantly battling him is himself.
The one at his best.
Sounds like you've gone through it.
I've lived long enough to go through all kinds of things.
Takeshi is battling all alone right now.
It might be interesting to center the team around Liz for a while.
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."
