Aired on March 23, 2013

Nishida leaves after criticizing Komano’s decision to skip a round, prompting the team to let him rest. Chihaya recalls Harada’s advice on the fatigue of watching matches. Mizusawa faces Shoyo High School from Kyoto, utilizing data gathered by Komano to secure a victory. Chihaya acknowledges the value of this information alongside their technical skills. Meanwhile, Arata is permitted to compete only if he writes an apology essay and avoids watching his Tokyo friends in the team tournament. For the semi-final against Akashi, Mizusawa relies on data collected by Sumire. Chihaya reluctantly agrees to avoid facing an Akashi Class A player, but Taichi sets the lineup to include a direct match between Chihaya and Megumu.
