More like lv.1 cheater vs. lv.99 pro. No, seriously, you can see from the initial three seconds that Filo's much better from the get-go. ASSHOLE? (heard ya) She catches back up basically just after the starting line. Speed down + dragon tail bitchslap? She's just pissed off and she's like twice as fast as that shitty "dragon". Also, bonus points for dirt in Myne's face, too. Speed up? Bitch please, she basically shrugs it off and goes faster than the "dragon" did while boosted. Only cheating could bring any sort of tension judging from Filo's performance.
The OST for this part is just so unique for me. It's called "Catch Me", btw. Just the classical guitar and the orchestra combo at the end gets me everytime.
If anyone wants to know the manga difference: Myne's men tried one last cheat near the end of the race by creating another hole and Firo noticed the cast, so in response, lands two feet in the hole and jumps over it, Motoyasu however, didn't notice the hole and both him and the dragon fell into the hole. Another thing to add, when the dragon tail swiped Firo at 0:50 the dragon gave a smug look at Firo and pissed her off more.
Better in the manga Mainly cuz of the end of the race. Naofumi didn’t do any special tricks, Filo saw it and leapt over it, and Spear Hero fell into it! Proof of cheating: Giant hole in the middle of track.
Wouldn't that be used against Naofumi? I mean the Spear Guy fell into it, so it's only logical to assume that it's Shield Hero's allies cast this against the spear guy
I'm so tired of seeing these ThE ManGA DId iT BetTTEr!1!!1111" comments. Go read your black and white paper if you want to but don't try to take it from the anime.
This was the moment he surpassed the other heroes to become the strongest. He may have had the moral high-ground all along, but he started at a huge disadvantage. He wasn't able to fight of the 2nd wave on the front-lines, and while saving the village was good, the wave only ended because the other heroes killed the boss monster. It was at this moment that he surpassed the other three in strength, and he left them in the dust.
FF7 golden saucer and the overworld, breed and race chocobo in the attempt to get a rare and hard to get gold one that can travel almost anywhere on the map only way to get a few of the rarest items in the game.
What sucks Is that you never see the dragon again after this episode. I only imagine he let it go after losing. That dragon could have been a valuable ally assuming it would have gone through a similar change like filo eventually
This scene was almost perfect, if they just could have added the classic - Electric de Chocobo, for the soundtrack :) then it would be the perfect anime
This episode proves at least the spear hero is training wrong. His probably higher level dragon is slower than a 3 day old bird. He himself who I think is 20 levels higher lost to Naofumi and a few low level monsters. Seriously how is he good enough to easily kill mobs but lose to a player 20 levels under him.
I was thinking something like that too, where spear hero is cheating and taking the easy way to get ahead, shield Hero is actually training and gaining real experiences
Just a thought here but, I wonder if Naofumi has some kind of passive Debuff Resist and HP regen? I mean, Filo shrugged off that Slow pretty well and she recovered from that tumble almost immediately.
I think since naofumi been lvling up slower, he's taking the time to learn new abilities. since we also saw during this episode that he unlocked a new ability from the slave potion is fair to believe that there is no limit to what these heroes can learn. rather cool power system if you ask me.
@@fernandosalas4634 What makes it more awesome is what they all find out later. Or rather... what only Naofumi figures out and then the others are told it by him after the fact. Granted that's at the tropical island muuuuch later on.
Effictivly introducing a character (Filo) and demonstrating what makes them great, without having to talk about it. In one episode, we got Filo, learned about her insane speed, and her distain for Motoyasu. Brilliant writing.
Wait, so I have a question. If Naofumi has the ability to nurture a Filolial into a Filolial Queen, which is extraordinarily powerful, can the other heroes do the same thing with other animals? Because I'm thinking if spear boy here can raise that dinosuar to the same level as the one that gets unsealed in the episode where they met the current Filolial Queen, that would be... I mean... awesome if he stays not quite as much of an asshole as he was.
I think he can but he will never nurture one because he can barely take care of himself yet alone another, it took Shield hero 2 day to get Filo that strong, that´s 47 hours and 55 minutes more than he can do
It is not "paid to win" vs "experience" Naofumi started riding Filo 2 days prior, Filo did all the job. Call it "overmodified unbalanced tuner" vs "something that actually corners"
Reminds me of a certain race across America to find the parts of Jesus Christ, at the final moments of the race between a time stopper and a guy who can travel through dimensions, but a guy named Poco loco wins with a thing called Hey ya

This is basically skill vs pay to win

No, seriously, you can see from the initial three seconds that Filo's much better from the get-go.

Well she has a couple of innate advantages a "normal" filo doesn't'
This is the last we see of Filo in her “regular Filolial” form, by the way. Yet she proves just as fast as her fluffy self.
My head canon is that she still looks like that, her queen form just makes her fluffier, buffing defense I guess.
@@zedantXiang apparently her body is the same in this form but it just gets loads of feathers

Sweet. Thanks for the info!

I wonder how it feels to lose after trying to cheat to win the entire race lol.

*inserts racing chocobo music*
All those times playing Chocobo racing is finally paying off.
Chocobo is best birb (sees chozo in Metroid)
Correction chocobo best birb of many
0:46 and this is why when you have Choco Sprint you save it until after someone uses Slow on you!
Gotta watch out for those Meteors, though.
Oh i love reference ffxiv
Filo is best Chocobo.
geardog24 No, Boko from FFV is better. (Nah i just love Filo) :P
Nah, Boko in FFTactics is way cooler XD
Still low class than a golden one...
It’s weird to see filo without all her fluff. She was so poofy last time I watched this anime and re watching this clip is messing with my brain.
floof
If anyone wants to know the manga difference:
Myne's men tried one last cheat near the end of the race by creating another hole and Firo noticed the cast, so in response, lands two feet in the hole and jumps over it, Motoyasu however, didn't notice the hole and both him and the dragon fell into the hole.
Another thing to add, when the dragon tail swiped Firo at 0:50 the dragon gave a smug look at Firo and pissed her off more.
Would you say the anime did it better? I honestly feel it more or less did
I love it when someone cheats and still loses. Feels so good
The sad thing is motoyasu probably doesn't realize that myne is cheating for him so he will win
0:57 You wont catch me when I shift into MAXIMUM OVERDIRVE!*YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
0:14 - Asshole was super effective...
and he says it with such passion
0:18 - Even Naofumi hit the dirt after getting in contact with that "asshole".
His defense rating is so high, he doesn't need a helmet when racing that Nascar bird.
Better in the manga
Mainly cuz of the end of the race. Naofumi didn’t do any special tricks, Filo saw it and leapt over it, and Spear Hero fell into it!
Proof of cheating: Giant hole in the middle of track.
@Quantum Jump He is a dumb person.
Quantum Wake. Have you watched Motoyasu?!
Dude seems to have this thing about falling for obvious traps.
Wouldn't that be used against Naofumi? I mean the Spear Guy fell into it, so it's only logical to assume that it's Shield Hero's allies cast this against the spear guy
Fuck I dunno how to edit its 5am

The music is great
Is it just me or does it sound like bleach’s music?
@@Joever5634 yes i knew i wasn't the only one
It's Kevin Penkin after all, same composer that did the ost for Made in Abyss.
Sound like a Mexican stand off
I wonder if he posted this OST somewhere
They could totally make a racing game out of this.
but Filo would be a Tournament first place skin
It's so random but I can see it being awesome
Final Fantasy: A realm Reborn (and it's expansion packs) is an MMO. It has full on chocobo racing against AI and other people.
FF7 golden saucer and the overworld, breed and race chocobo in the attempt to get a rare and hard to get gold one that can travel almost anywhere on the map
only way to get a few of the rarest items in the game.
An isekai Anime racing game with all the Isekai Anime and their Mounts race one another.
I like how the running animation for filo in this scene feels like it has weight to it
"Go Drumsticks!" - Joey Wheeler
"Umm guys, Joey named his chicken."
In all seriousness though I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that.
“It’s a Niwatori, Mai.”

Ok, the whole race was incredible, but can we talk about the music? So good!

So it would seem. Wait weren't we fighting pirates earlier?
What sucks Is that you never see the dragon again after this episode. I only imagine he let it go after losing. That dragon could have been a valuable ally assuming it would have gone through a similar change like filo eventually
Given Bitch's personality, she probably ordered it slain, lest she be remembered of her defeat every time she saw it.
In the light novel, Spear idiot abandons it after the race and the villagers adopt it.
@@nunyabisnuth828hopefully it happens in the anime and it gets referenced.
Meanwhile on my head FFVII chocobo racing theme was all i could hear.
This scene was almost perfect, if they just could have added the classic
- Electric de Chocobo, for the soundtrack
:) then it would be the perfect anime
Or Miserlou
the new final fantasy anime looks great!
The race at least exonerated Motoyashi from my scorn because you can se he has no clue what is going on when his mount just suddenly sped up.
A filolial racing like a chocobo is fun...
The best part is after the race, when motoyasu's ones are kicked by Firo
Damn THAT was satisfying
I really like how Naofumi beat Motoyasu with pure skill
This episode proves at least the spear hero is training wrong. His probably higher level dragon is slower than a 3 day old bird. He himself who I think is 20 levels higher lost to Naofumi and a few low level monsters. Seriously how is he good enough to easily kill mobs but lose to a player 20 levels under him.
I bet that redhead power leveled him just to use him as a pawn
I was thinking something like that too, where spear hero is cheating and taking the easy way to get ahead, shield Hero is actually training and gaining real experiences
His int stat is garbo and he may have just received the dragon :)
@Fizz Oh. That explains a lots actually. Thanks for telling me that.
@Fizz gonna be so sweet when the other 3 get their reality checks though LOL
0:14 Japanese accent can some times sound like totally different thing then earth hole
This time, their cheating failed.
I had this part play muted and played the chocobo theme through the race. It suits it somehow.
Love that Spanish background song. Viva la madre patria🇪🇸!!!
"It will be a photo finish or an oil painting..."

The sick Spanish guitar song name is "Catch Me".
Took longer than it should have to find that.
Can also be found on Spotify
We got a NFS Hot Pursuit Turbo @0:57 😂💀
I love that Filo got into it.
You gotta love that ost tho (It's called 'Catch Me' by Kevin Penkin btw)
In the LN, Myne forced Pedoyasu to abandon his dragon just because it lost to Filo. Fortunately the people in Ryute village took the poor guy in.
That makes me happy knowing that
1:40 I love this animation lol
That orchestra part of the song @ 2:00 reminds me of another anime song, I just can't put my finger on it
Can you remember what the anime was about?
The fact that they cheat either means she didn´t think Motoyasu could win on his own or she thought that Naofumi had the skills to win.
Either way she was scared that her golden goose wasn't as golden as she saw. And she might actually be scared of naofumis mad lad skills.
0:29 DEJA VU!
A simple movement to the right would’ve easily saved him but no my man literally drifted 10m away
The bird in the thumbnail looks manly af
Filo: *JoJo mode
Motoyasu: seems it's over
Am I the only one who was laughing at this scene? I also loved Naofumi's victory lmao
Oh you sweet angel of girl.
This show really should have made a FF reference. I mean they did spider man they could have done a chocobo thing.
Air strike shield be the real MVP of this anime xd
The soundtrack is so cool

the music... the fucking music is perfect!

One of the best moments
When the Hacker cries "HACKS" because they lost...
When they be the one hacking.
kinda tells how incompetent motoyasu is when he cant even win with cheats
Naw just Filo is no joke
AND IT'S FILO BY A BEAK!!!
Man I was looking forward to the Spear Hero falling into a hole...but this is fine too.
Now thats a pure loser. At his purest form. Lost even when he strike his opponent and his disciple helped him unknowingly.

Imagine cheating in a race and still losing.

Wait, so I have a question.
If Naofumi has the ability to nurture a Filolial into a Filolial Queen, which is extraordinarily powerful, can the other heroes do the same thing with other animals? Because I'm thinking if spear boy here can raise that dinosuar to the same level as the one that gets unsealed in the episode where they met the current Filolial Queen, that would be...
