Bakuten Episode 4: Release Date, Speculation and Watch Online

In Episode 4, Ao High and Shiro High agree to a training campaign that will help them perfect their moves before the tournament.

However, the athletes are more concerned about showing off their skills to the other party. Will the healthy rivalry between the two veteran groups be ultimately beneficial for both?

I’m more concerned about Futaba as he is new to this field. Will Ao High fall behind because of him? We bring you the latest episode updates for this anime.   

1. Episode 4 Speculation 

Shiro High has already shown how perfect their teamwork is, and now it’s Ao High’s turn to come up with a perfect performance and save themselves from embarrassment before their arch-rival.

Ao High is used to their four-man combination, so it’s hard for them to completely sync with each other just yet. So, their performance won’t be as good as that of Shiro High.

Moreover, Futaba has just learned to do handstands. I don’t think he is ready for performance yet.

Coming to the positive sides, the athletes will learn from each other, especially for Futaba, who has a lot to learn before he catches up with others.

2. Episode 4 Release Date  

Episode 4 of the Bakuten: Backflip anime has been released on Friday, Apr 30, 2021. The episode title or preview has not been shown.

3. Episode 3 Recap 

In Episode 3, Futaba passes the coach’s test. This means he will be performing with his sensei and Misato in this Year’s tournament.

The rule of men’s rhythmic gymnastics is, each six-player team is allotted 20 points, and from there on, points get subtracted based on their mistakes.

So, you can understand that synchronized teamwork is absolutely necessary. Since Ao High is used to their 4-man combination, they face difficulty shifting to a 6-man combination suddenly.

With Futaba still learning the basics, the coach decides to hold a training campaign with their rival team Shiro High. This way, both teams can learn from each other.

Before the campaign, Keisuke, Ao High’s Captain, takes his team out to relax a bit. He appreciates Futaba’s decision of practicing handstand instead.

On their way, they come across the athletes of Shiro High. From their not-so-friendly conversation, it was clear that the rivalry between them is pretty intense.

Meanwhile, Futaba meets Mashiro of Shiro High while practicing handstand in a park. He gives Futaba some invaluable tips regarding rhythmic gymnastics.

Later, the two teams confront each other before the gym. They introduce each other officially and indirectly challenge each other. The two coaches believe that this healthy rivalry will benefit both.

We also get to know about Mashiro Tsukiyuki, who just in 1st Year, but his skills surpass even the third-year athletes. In middle school, he beat Misato in a tournament.

Shiro High starts with their graceful and picture-perfect performance before the Ao High athletes. Can Ao High live up to this benchmark? We will get to know as the next
