Yakitate!! Japan

The Critical Touch and Go Situation!! The Prohibited Rodin Strategy! (2x5)

Data di messa in onda: Mag 24, 2005

Kawachi goes along with Kanmuri's plan, suggesting to make Rodin's famous "Thinker" for their bread that will be presented in the opening of the Monaco cup. After its completion, Kawachi as planned accidentally ruins it. With no other choice, team Japan makes a new life sized statue, with Kawachi inside. Kawachi is eventually found out, and team Japan starts at a disadvantage with 8 points, as well as considered the weakest team in the Monaco cup, as planned by Kanmuri.
