"It's been a while..." Sakaki smirks fearlessly. He and Kakeru are old acquaintances. Kakeru is unable to hide how shaken he is by their unexpected reunion. Swirling inside Kakeru was the loneliness he experienced as a high school student due to his talents. Kakeru runs as though fleeing from shadows, when before him appears "the other Kakeru." It is the desperate man he used to be before he met Haiji. Kakeru glares resentfully at his past. Just as he's about to lose hope in himself, someone with a kind voice reaches out to him. It's Prince and his friends...
Kakeru tombe sur Kôsuke, un ancien camarade de son club d’athlétisme au lycée, mais les retrouvailles ne sont guère chaleureuses… Les entraînements amateurs continuent, et Kakeru commence à être perdu dans sa tête.
そう言って不敵に笑う榊浩介。思いがけない再会に動揺を隠せない走。
走の胸の内には、高校時代に味わった、才能が故の深い孤独が渦巻いていた。
影を振り切るように駆けていく走。その目の間に、“もう一人の走”が現れる。
카케루에게 말을 건 남자. 그 사람은 바로 카케루의 같은 중학교, 같은 육상부 출신인 사카키였다. 어째선지 사카키는 카케루에게 비아냥댔고, 카케루는 자신의 중학교 시절을 회상하게 되는데.
Haiji aos pouco consegue convencer seus companheiros de atletismo a praticarem dia após dia, mas os resultados ainda parecem bastante distantes para conseguirem participar de um grande evento de competição e essa também é a opinião de um antigo colega de escola de Kakeru.
說著“好久不見……”一邊目中無人地笑著的榊浩介。阿走和榊是舊相識的關係。對預料之外的再會感到非常動搖的阿走。在阿走的記憶中，高中時代所感受到的，因為才能而飽嚐孤獨的過去。打算走出過去陰影的阿走，在他的眼前卻出現了“另一個阿走”。那個阿走，就是與灰二相遇之前自暴自棄的自己。痛恨地回首著過去的阿走。終於，就在自己要陷入絕望深淵的時候，他聽到了一個溫柔的呼喚聲。那就是王子和其他夥伴……
لقاء كاكيرو بزميله القديم يعيد له ذكريات الثانوية المريرة، ويقيم هايجي سباقاً للفريق للاستعداد للمشاركة في اللقاء الرياضي القادم المؤهل لتصفيات هاكونيه إيكيدين
