Medalist episode 5 recap

Medalist episode 5, titled Meikoh Cup Beginner Women's FC (Part Two), commenced with Miketa preparing for her performance after Inori finished her. The episode gave a flashback to Miketa's past, where she was bullied by older people who failed to understand her every time. Returning to the present, Miketa entered the ice rink and began her performance.

Her start was flawless, and her clean moves had the audience enticed. However, when she tried to make a high-level move, she failed. However, the audience failed to notice it. Afterward, as MIketa was reaching the end of her performance, she tried to perform the move again. Even though she nailed it this time, she wasn't rewarded any points this time.

After her performance, she was appreciated by her coach. Miketa also made up with Inori as these two sat in the audience to wait for Hikaru's performance. Once the ongoing performance ended, Hikaru entered the ice rink and started her performance. As expected, her performance was majestic, to say the least, as she combined every move of hers with a beautiful transition.

Her performance was awarded a near-perfect score, surprising everyone. Hikaru then waved at Inori as the latter rushed to say her thanks to the former. However, when Inori was off to meet Hikaru, she encountered a stranger. After an awkward encounter, Tsukasa also joined them. This mysterious man was Jun Yodaka, an Olympic Gold Medalist and Hikaru's coach.

What to expect from Medalist episode 6? (speculative)

Medalist episode 6 is titled First Match Night. As stated in the preview synopsis, the next episode might see a flashback to Tsukasa's origins as to how he became an ice skater. This happens after Inori asks Tsukasa to make him as big of a star as Hikaru.

Tsukasa's past, as showcased in the preview trailer, might also see his first performance with Hitomi. The preview trailer also introduces some new characters so fans can expect good things from the episode.
