Arumi's late-night run-in with a smaller "pest" on Ryugan Island raises a number of questions on the true nature of the Giant Beasts and reviewing footage captured by Bullbuster reveals something startling.

Standing up for the little guy against big business, Namidome Industries declares war on Shiota Chemical and sets about ridding Ryugan Island of the Giant Beasts as well as the bacteria that has been causing the animals to mutate.

After the collapse of the merger between Namidome Industries and Shiota, it seems like Namidome's days are numbered. That is, until a man representing another company shows up with an interesting proposal...

The commercial is ready to air, but Haruka isn't happy about Kouya's photograph being inserted, leading to past traumas being revisited.

Komaki Motors finally have a sponsor, but Haruka may not be so happy about the terms of the deal. Though out on track, money for more tires equals more practice time. Can Haruka make good use of the extra track time?

An inspired Madoka barges into Komaki Motors HQ and declares he wants to sponsor their F4 outfit, but it quickly becomes apparent that he has no idea how much it actually costs to go racing.

The FIA Japanese F4 Championship is reaching its climax and it all comes down to this race at Fuji Speedway. Will Haruka finally get to stand on the top step of the podium?
