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.
He's working hard to be 
what he wants to be!
!إنّه يجتهد ليصبح ما يريد أن يكونه
Er hat so hart dafür gekämpft,
seinen Wunsch zu erfüllen!
¡Se esfuerza para ser lo que quiere!
¡Se esfuerza para ser lo que quiere!
Il se cherche de toutes ses forces !
Si sta impegnando tanto 
per diventare quello che vuole!
Ele tá se esforçando pra ser o que deseja!
Он так старался ради своей цели!
