Reporters pursue Yawara and Fujiko during training. While training with Sayaka, he assumes she will defeat Yawara, which would require him to marry Sayaka immediately, so he plans to flee after her anticipated win. Kojiro informs him that Sayaka has secured the necessary ninety-nine percent for victory, needing only one percent luck to overcome a genius. Fujiko faces a confidence crisis the night before the All Japan Selected until she hears Hanazono cheering in his sleep. Yawara faces Sayaka in the forty-eight kilograms and under finals. Before the bout, Yawara invites her to a post-match victory celebration.
