I hope Kyoko at least gets a date out of this, loaning your car to someone is a huge deal for a racer and there's no way he doesn't know that.

btw, I tend to think that Takumi could do what that guy suggested and still win ; )

Yeah if i was her i would have negotiated a date for the car. On the other hand that may have backfired making him dislike her taking advantage of him like that so who knows.
She must have gotten some points for the whole thing.
Come on dude, give the girl a chance, she even lend you her car and instead of being in the way like you said she seems to be quite useful.

I was happy seeing that stupid guy lose. He was such a lame driver and chicken shit.
It seems the show kept the most dangerous one for Fujiwara.

"Why can't I pull away from you?"
Because you sucked.

That was an easy win, Keisuke FTW! Loved it when he said "Oi, oi" XD

Ha, a threat, huh? Think of yourself as some big deal or what-not piece of junk? Dontcha kiddin' me punk

By the way, if they care about that small amount of money, 50k-100k, that means they're kinda poor, and a fast car like a Lan Evo should be pretty expensive, so where did they get the money for that? Rob, I guess.

The opponent is totally shit and just playing all dirty! But well I doubt he'll have too much trouble winning the next race!

Kyoko is hero.. hmm no, heroine! I don't think so maybe lady of luck?
Lady of luck indeed :D

I like how Kyoko's car turned into yellow just like Keisuke's car.. What a nice detail

Surprisingly if someone threaten me like that, that's just going to give me more motivation to beat him

Kyoko to the rescue. Keisuke owes her a diamond ring after that one. I've said it before, she's the right kind of crazy for him.

The way in which everyone tried to cheer Keisuke up, and help him was really cute, even Takumi was worried. And they did what they could, but there was no way to race with his car like this, so when Kiyoko appeared with her car, she was like an angel sent from heaven. Keisuke was able to win the race with it, and was really grateful, and she was really happy too, so there was a win-win situation here.

It was also cute the way Ryousuke blushed when Keisuke asked him if he was trying to get another car so that he could race, it would be simple for Ryousuke to run with his car himself or something, but Keisuke wouldn't have closure with his incident like this, so it was really nice of Ryousuke to try to do what he could so that his little brother could race, and once again, it was really nice that Kiyoko was there.

But that guy wasn't only a lowlife cheater, but also a sore loser, so lame. Now it's time for Takumi to defeat the other lowlife.

Yes! Another Keisuke centric arc. Such a badass when Keisuke tells the lan evo guy that he doesn't even understand his own course.

Lucky Kyoko, having her darling's hands all over her keys, steering wheel and stick shift.

Wow, the stalker-girl turned out very helpful, again, this time insanely helpful, goddamn helpful, her obsession over Keisuke was useful! Keisuke beat that fat ugly fuck easily, if he had his car, Keisuke would've beaten him even faster. It was satisfying to see Keisuke beat him like that, though. The next race is interesting, he seems to want to beat Takumi fair, just with a little threat at the beginning, it's an interesting psychological trick though, it seems to be working, just a few misleading words and that's enough to throw your opponent off.

Kyoko saved the day and thanks to her Keisuke was able to wreck that dude. Pretty satisfying.

But now the opponent is going for cheap mind games.

Kyoko saved the day.

And enabled Keisuke to crush the Evo pushover. No dirty tricks or intimidation tactics.

Kyoto aka "Darling girl" saved the day! :D She fully deserves to be taken for a date by Keisuke.

Very good race, though those guys play dirty... I guess Takumi won't have problems with his downhill battle.

Hoo boy, it's the return of the "dArLin~" chick, and what a surprise, she appeared in Keisuke's most dire moment to lend him her car for his run. Totally didn't see that coming.

Sarcasm aside, I think it was so sweet of Ryosuke to have already backtracked in his decision to pull Keisuke from the race and arrange to get another car for him without telling him. Despite him claiming no "other" factors pushed him to make that call (which definitely was unexpected coming from Ryousuke like Fumihiro stated) other than the fact that going with the car he was more familiar with would be to his advantage, I think he realized he was a bit too harsh and hurt his brother's feelings and really wanted to make it up to him by giving him a chance to do what he really wanted. Seeing him get flustered and blush like that when Keisuke said it out loud was super cute lmao. I love the unspoken bond they have, really heartwarming to see two brothers who do really care for each other amongst all the grit and adrenaline in the anime.

And talk about character development for Kei, he totally ripped that guy apart and still held his ground and kept his cool even when the bastard kept running his mouth off at him when the race was over. What a satisfying triumph. Now let's see how Takumi does.

Hats off to Kyoko for this one she went in for the clutch, Either way that was a bit too fast for him to lose like that wanted more of a dramatic loss but this'll do

Now Takumi's turn to kick some ass hopefully he doesn't get too distracted by his opponents bluff.

Oh and I still like seeing Keisuke race, seeing anybody racing aside from Takumi is always a treat, I like having different stakes and seeing different people's passion and abilities when it comes to racing, like with the girls in Extra Stage 1.

The girl showed up right on race day, how lucky for him.

It was a good race with another FD.

I hope Takumi thinks about this proposal.
