The Hojo Brothers (北条兄弟, Hōjō Kyōdai, "Hojo Brothers") is the six hundred and twenty-sixth chapter of Initial D.

Plot

Go is annoyed that Shinji would back out when they need him most, but Kubo hopes that Shinji will show up eventually. Go wishes to just focus on his race, and Kubo assures him that he will deal with it. Suddenly, Rin shows up. Go tells him that he thought he wasn't showing his face in Hakone, but Rin says that while the Grim Reaper is dead he can go wherever he wants. He apologises for the grief he caused both him and their parents. Go asks why he is there, and Rin admits that he wants to see him race. He doesn't offer him any advice, as he already has Kubo for that, instead simply telling him that he needs to use all of the skills he has gained so far in order to win, and that he should enjoy this race.

Five minutes before the beginning of the hillcimb, the two teams gather on the start line.
