What a fun way to start this episode before the race starts. His mother has no idea whatsoever what Sakamichi joined. Smooth start of the race, but it's starting to get intense. The banter and the competition among the Sohoku sprinters were so funny and fun to watch. I don't get why he unzipped his top jersey. And for someone who is in the front, cycling effortlessly doesn't make sense. Is the physics not present in that part?
