In their first match of the summer tournament, the Mifune Dolphins lost all of the four point lead they had due to Daigo's grave mistake.
Daigo is completely demoralized and depressed about that mistake, when an unexpected voice makes him look up at the fence.
Unbelievably, Hikaru had come there all the way from Gunma!
Slightly awkward, as he left the team behind back then, Hikaru was there without a uniform just to cheer the team on.
But what's that in Hikaru's bag?!
but I showed up late on purpose
to avoid being put on the bench.
،لكنّي فكّرت في أنه سيجلس في الاحتياط لبعض الوقت
aber dann hätte man mich
vielleicht auf die Bank gesetzt.
pero creí que estaría en la banca,
pero creí que estaría en el banquillo,
mais je voulais éviter
qu’ils me mettent sur le banc.
ma ho pensato che all'inizio 
avrebbero potuto mettermi in panchina,
mas achei que iam botar
ele no banco no começo,
но решил, что его не сразу
выпустят на поле,
