EPISODE REVIEWS

Hay conversaciones, pequeñas interacciones, momentos de comedia y escenas aparentemente poco importantes y dependiendo de lo que esperabas de la serie, esto puede ser una virtud o un defecto. En mi caso, creo que funciona precisamente porque la serie necesita que conozcamos a estas personas antes de que ciertas cosas posteriores tengan peso.

Fasten your seatbelts, because we have another crazy race for this episode! The race involves..... running a 10k! Essentially, that's what the episode mainly is. All of the racers are taking part in 10km run, with a racing track being the finishing line. It seems like it's a filler episode more than anything,. It does have some wholesome moments, though. I also like the slow-paced, chill atmosphere of the episode as well. A nice little slice of life episode, away from the drama and the heart-pounding races.

Even though this episode feels like filler since it doesn't feature an F4 race, it is still worth watching. There is a moral lesson to be drawn from it, particularly regarding the unexpected turn of events Haruka experiences during the marathon. While the pacing is indeed a bit slower, the storyline remains strong and impactful for the character development of both Haruka and Tokumaru.
