3rd time's the charm for Yu Serizawa feat. MOTSU, and this is definitely one of the better (comeback) OPs of the series.

We're back with mangaka Shuichi Shigeno's MF Ghost for the new year, continuing on Fall 2024's cliffhanger on the last rites of the ongoing MFG's Round 3: the Peninsula Manazuru race.


Kanata and the rest having to finish what they started on the final day of the Peninsula Manazuru race, it's wearing on everyone. And with the overtakings and such, plus some drivers getting worried about Kanata's 86 gearbox issue (due to his elbow strain from saving Ren the other day) which he is falling behind rather unusually not being able to shift the 86 into 2nd Gear, while getting updates about Takumi Fujiwara's life since then with his marriage
everyone's been keeping their eye on Kanata as Takumi's Super Rookie successor, though to fall so badly behind, which only Ren and her father would know of his predicament.

All the more now, Kanata is repeating Takumi's tragedy by not being able to shift into 2nd Gear, it's really testing his endurance to the limit. Meanwhile, it's veterans like Moroboshi's 885 Toyota Spura GT on the front beating out the rookie drivers, while Shun couples himself with the Yashi-Kita siblings to stay on course. The last-placed finish hope is becoming a reality...but not, once Kanata's elbow literally moved to push the 86 into 2nd Gear, and forces his way to a miraculous comeback from that. It's the same thing too for Ren, whose MFG Angel job is still a secrecy from him.

Kanata, give it your all for this revenge fight, from the near-last place to finish the final race strong!

I see the endorphins have kicked in. Yeah, you stop feeling the pain, but you may injure yourself further. That high though, better than drugs. Speaking from experience here.

It starting good and I knew it gotta end in cliffhanging as usulaly.

Yeah he didn't feel any pain but he felt also something warm that it was supporting him.

His pride as racer and competition spirit is ignited full throught.

The new season throws me in the middle of the heated race. I kinda expect some kind of recap but it's scary how I can watch this without remembering the event from the previous season.

One thing I remember, female character in this franchise existed just to make male character's life miserable. It's not like Ren intentionally want to hurt Kanata's arm, it's an accident, and that's why I blame the author. Just when I thought MF Ghost is a step forward when there's female driver here.

We're back in the race, that "magic" that happened in the episode was kind of strange, but let's see, Kanata is back!

Someone seriously give the announcer an award or something. The way this guy gets your blood boiling in a second is insane. Got emotional when the Takumi bit started and lost my shit when rage your dream started playing, holy shit. So Takumi and Mika got married, really happy to have confirmation. She went pro as expected. The entire Mogi thing was unfortunate though.

Anyway back to the race and Kanata miraculously doesn't feel the pain anymore. The race is on baby. Looks like Ren is gonna tell him the truth too. This race is turning out to be the turning point for the series.

Was just lazing around whole first day of the year a bit sick but this got the adrenaline running.

Man we're so back with MF Ghost, the first episode starts off where it left off the last time and man so many stuff happened in this episode. I'm glad that Kanata is over his pain and i hope he will win the race or be in Top 3.

Also Takumi is now MARRIED? I did not see that coming tbh. We all know that Takumi is now happy with Mika and we even got a little tease of Takumi where he is now and it seems like he is a doctor now? Also Mika is now a pro golfer.

All in all a pretty good start to Season 3. 8/10

Good start. This is, at least to me, the best arc in the manga so i knew this seasson was going to be better but man, they cooked here. You can feel some effort in this ep.

My tears welled up when they started talking about Takumi and the music faded in. They know how to play with our feelings.

So I haven't read the manga, but there was a scene in the hospital? Was that Takumi's dad? A bit annoyed about supernatural elements in otherwise realistic animes, but is Takumi's dad's spirit giving Kanata a hand from the spirit realm?

This episode was fun. Excited to see how the race ends and how both Kanata and the 86 change over the course of the season.
