The Amazing TeniRace, episode 1 poll

[gekidasa]

SAKAKI:
In just a few minutes, you will be leaving on a race around the world.

The race is spilt into a number of legs and as you travel, you’ll have to complete various task.

At the start of each leg of the race, you will receive a small amount of cash that has to cover all expenses, except airline tickets, which you won’t need to pay for.

At the end of each leg of the race, there is a pit stop, 8 of these pit stops are elimination points, so you need to get to them as fast as you can, because if you’re last, you will be eliminated. Everybody understand that?

Your first clue is waiting inside the envelope on top of the luggage you brought with you. When I give you the word, you can run over to your bags, read the clue and jump into one of the cars in the parking lot.

What happens after that is completely up to you.

Is everybody ready?

Alright… The world is waiting for you… Good luck… Travel safe…

ITTE YOSHI!

The 11 teams are...




First pit stop: Taipei
Cash allowance: $90

Feel free to tell me anything you think happens on this leg. \XD/

ETA: Remember that they've been stripped of all of their own cash/credit cards/etc and electronic devices (this includes helicopters, Atobe) and only have what they can carry in their packs.

The poll will stay open until I get bored. XD

Poll is closed!

Shuusuke and Yuuta win because Shuusuke is evil. Atobe's helicopter runs out of gas and glides in slowly as Kabaji spins a towel to keep it safely aloft. They finish second. Koshimae encourages Shuusuke to shave Atobe's head again.

In a shocking twist, Inui and Yanagi are the ones who finish last, despite being in the lead for nearly the entire time. Something about a protractor in a pocket or just happy to see me.

Kite and Rin get lost because Kite refuses to even look at the map when they head out. Claims he already knows the way. Rin is sitting in the passenger seat with his feet on the dash, window rolled down, and the map goes flying out of the window. There is a tiny, but noticeable flinch from Kite. "You said you didn't even need the map." "That's correct."

Kin-chan and Koshimae only find the place at all because Koshimae can sniff out buchou to top "in tennis" and hair-pull humiliate from miles away.

Yuushi and Kenya end up driving in circles. They realise the third time they pass the cigar-store Indian that it's actually Chitose holding up a little sign that says "this way to self-actualisation ->"

Jackal has a keen sense of direction thanks to his early days in the jungle. Marui smacks him when they fall behind. They make a good team.

Helicopters aren't allowed on the race, though. :o

B-but...

What about zeppelins? :D?

...No. I made an edit explaining that they only have what they can carry on their backs.
