Returning from his injury, Furuya joins a game with the second string. Seeing Sawamura shine in the first string's game, Furuya mulls over the words Kataoka wrote in his journal. Meanwhile, in Yamanashi prefecture, Seido's rivals Yakushi, Ichidai Third High and Inashiro Industrial compete in intense games for the spring Kanto Tournament. Sawamura and his teammates watch intensely as their rivals become stronger.
He was so relaxed, I couldn't 
believe it was his first game.
كان مسترخياً تماماً لدرجة لم أصدّق أنها كانت
مباراته الأولى
Er war so ruhig. Kaum zu glauben,
dass es sein erstes Spiel war.
Estaba tan tranquilo
que no parecía su primer partido.
Estaba tan tranquilo
que no parecía su primer partido.
Vu son calme,
on aurait dit un grand habitué.
Da com'era rilassato,
non avrei mai detto che fosse la sua prima partita.
Ele estava tão relaxado que nem
parecia ser o primeiro jogo dele.
Ещё и был так расслаблен,
 будто не первый раз играет.
