Day Two of the Inter-High, early morning. Team Sohoku's managed to stay ahead of Hakone-with the exception of their sole first year, Kaburagi. Aoyagi stayed behind to help him get back in the race...but will the help of his upperclassman and Onoda's love flat-chested princess be enough to catch up to the lead?!

Day two waits for no one!  After close calls in every stage on day one of the Inter-High, Team Sohoku is utterly exhausted. But with two full days left, the fight is far from over. Right off the bat, Naruko, Imaizumi, and Ashikiba are once more stuck in a face-off on the dangerous Konsei Pass.

Can he endure the grueling uphill battle before him, or will the looming climb prove to be insurmountable?

Just once. If only he could win just once... Teshima’s always had a single desire when it comes to road racing—he wants to be the hero at least one time. And now, 400 meters before the Mountain Stage goal, he has the opportunity of his life! With Manami down for the count due to mechanical issues, nothing can stop him from clinching the win...right? In the aftermath of the two’s showdown, Midousuji’s unwavering pursuit of the day-one goal leaves chaos in his wake!

With so little distance remaining, Kaburagi decides to finally shift into top gear—but will it be enough to overcome Doubashi’s rampage and win the green sprinter tags?! Meanwhile, Onoda gets swallowed by the peloton just before the Mountain Stage. It’s familiar territory for him, but there’s one key difference: Onoda’s new reputation as defending champion means everyone’s on guard against his infamously outrageous comebacks…
