RUN, RYUUJI, RUN!

Winning a race filled with obstacles guarantees the victor the title of “Lucky Man” and earns him the right to dance with Ms. Festival at the closing festivities. Ryuuji knows that Taiga has never felt more abandoned, so he’ll stop at nothing to stand by her side. But as Ryuuji approaches the finish line, another unexpected contender quickly closes the gap...!
