During the episode, something's wrong with McQueen's feet, but neither she nor we know what. The sky turns greyer and starts pouring as she tries to run, breaking down in tears when she realizes she can't anymore. But Teio is there, promising a miracle. The music, the pace, the animation and the feeling in this episode are perfect.

Just like how she was there for Teio, Teio was there for her as well. Their rivalry together, even with the setbacks of injuries, basically boosts their relationship. Seeing her break down tore me apart. The switch of the vocals on the ED was a lovely touch. 8.2/10
