The first-year welcoming race is on and another exhilarating episode of "Yowamushi Pedal: New Generation" was aired last Monday. After a brief introduction to the major contenders for the race in the last episode, the race finally began with Sugimoto Terufumi being the center of the whole chapter. Terufumi have only made very few appearances in the previous season, but now we got to witness the amazing development of his character.
The episode titled "Sugimoto Brother's Bond" started off with the first-year duo Kaburagi Issa and Danchiku Ryuuhou breaking away with the back for the lead. The other first years have already given up on catching up to them. However, the experienced rider Terufumi is not backing down and even managed to get ahead of them.
According to Anime News Network, though Terufumi is one year ahead of all the competitors, this doesn't make the job easier. Apparently, the pair of first years wearing the green and blue jerseys are no pushovers and are a member of an elite bicycle racing team called Speed Shot. They managed to join the prestigious as middle schoolers where each membership slot was determined by racing.
Going back to the race, the twosome underestimated their senior but they effortlessly took the lead position from Terufumi. The second year is disheartened at first but he regained composure when his mentor, Imaizumi passionately gave him words of encouragement. It is amazing for Imaizumi showing his real emotions to push Terufumi and its drama is one of the alluring charm of "Yowamushi Pedal: New Generation."
All things were lost for Terufumi when the van pulls forward away from him to follow the front runners as reported by Lost in Anime. However, he was rejuvenated when he saw his little brother, Sadatoki caught up with him. Together, the Sugimoto brothers chased after Kaburagi and Danchiku and pass over them. Sadly, the episode ended when the four of them are finally neck and neck near the peak of the climb.
All in all, "Yowamushi Pedal: New Generation" Episode 10 is an invigorating episode. It is action-packed and the drama really gives goose bumps to viewers. It's really disappointing for the cliffhanger ending so we'll have to wait next week for the end of the first-year welcoming race.
