Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The ridiculous performance lets the pair exist as travelling companions rather than only competitors in danger. Gyro’s confidence makes the small joke worth remembering.

Spoilers for Steel Ball RunShow the scene
During a pause in the race, Gyro performs his Cheese Song for Johnny in Steel Ball Run chapter 41. Johnny’s restrained response is part of the joke. The card uses only the four-word refrain; “pizza mozza-rella” is another way fans spell its rhythm.
