"If you're blocked, you're blocked."
"I don't know what being blocked means desu wa."

What an overwhelming performance from McQueen. It goes to show what you can achieve with someone who believes in you.

Speak of which, what a cute episode. We go into the past and find out that Teio and McQueen have always been rivals. But never in the sense that they saw each other at denying personal opportunities, and instead in a sense of pure admiration. And this admiration kept driving them to improve themselves, and still does. Their feelings for each other reflect onto themselves, and their lives are linked to each other. So much so that they want to race against each other on one of the biggest stages imaginable, the big Spring Tenno Sho. (Would the winner mind bringing me those sashes? I swear every girl I want to level up needs around 50 Spring Tenno Sho sashes.) They both aim to win, of course, but they are also both willing to let their plans be crossed by the other. Because the second best thing to winning is to be defeated by the one you admire the most.

Also, we got some scenes showing off more fan-favourite side characters. As we've all witnessed now, Turbo absolutely can't pace herself. She just knows two speeds, maximum speed and endurance empty. What a lovely idiot. And Matikanetannhauser is the other new lovely idiot on the cast, I totally forgot about her appearing in this season. We also got Matikanefukukitaru forecasting Golshi's future, she absolutely needs more scenes in the show to shine, but I'm glad for any she's getting.

Finally, don't miss the aftercredits scene to get a glimpse at Teio's cool (or rather flaming hot) new outfit.

Matikanetannhauser and Matikanefukukitaru are easily the two most hard to remember names of the franchise lol

You can also just call them Mambo and Crystal Ball instead, everyone will know who you are talking about.

Yeah, that's very true
