Spring. The Hatase High school gymnasium. Table tennis club adviser Koizumi Jo notices a cut-man with glasses on the team.
He is one of the up-and-comers who joined the team this year, Tsukimoto Makoto (Smile).
Meanwhile, the other up-and-comer Hoshino Yutaka (Peco) is swindling a man at Obaba's Tamura Table Tennis Hall.
Yes. Since Hoshino and Tsukimoto came 
along, he's not a starter anymore.
Bueno. Dejó de ser titular después 
de la entrada de Hoshino y Tsukimoto.
Sim. Ele não é mais titular por 
culpa do Hoshino e do Tsukimoto.
