Chihaya chooses to go on her class trip in hopes to come closer to fulfilling her dream of being a teacher, but she spends the entire time lost in space, wondering how Taichi is doing at the Master tournament qualifiers. Harada and Inokuma are also participating in the East Japan qualifiers, but as Taichi tries to quietly psych himself up, someone unexpected shows up to get in his way. Meanwhile, at the West Japan qualifiers, Master Suo makes a surprising comment to Arata.
All that separated victory from 
defeat was that fault early on!
ما فصل بين الفوز والخسارة في مسابقة
يوشينو كانت المخالفة مُبكّراً فقط
Der Sieg hing nur an dem einen
Fehler in der ersten Hälfte!
Solo tuvo la victoria por esa falta.
Solo ganó por esa falta.
J’ai perdu à cause de mes fautes,
mais j’étais plus fort !
Ciò che ha deciso la vittoria 
è stato un fallo all'inizio!
Ele só conseguiu aquela vitória 
pelos meus erros no começo!!
От победы отделяла
лишь одна ошибка!
