Ranking matches for the prefectural tournament are being held again this year. As usual, it's a round robin involving the entire team. During lunch on the day of the matches, the second-years hype themselves up by eating dishes such as tonkatsu for good luck. Later, while Ryo and Matsuda are returning to their classroom together, they overhear the third-years' conversation and learn how they truly feel as they complain about the second-years bound to place well in the ranking matches. Ryo ignores their complaints and focuses on the matches, but Matsuda's expression remains overcast--
"If you want to go quickly, then go alone."
."إن أردت الذهاب بسرعة فاذهب بمفردك"
"Si quieres ir rápido, ve solo".
"Si quieres ir rápido, ve solo".
« Si tu veux aller vite, marche seul,
"Se vuoi andare veloce, vai da solo."
"Se quiser ir mais rápido, vá sozinho".
«Хочешь дойти быстро — иди один».
