Ep. 13: Arata se prepara para la tercera ronda mientras Inokuma se convierte en el Retador de la Reina

Arata wanders off to prepare for the third round while the second round of the Queen Challenger begins. Both players bring a keepsake to their match, signifying the blessing and support they received from those closest to them. Inokuma manages to win the second round by overcoming her fear of committing faults, becoming the Queen's Challenger. Chihaya catches a glipmse of Suou outside the karuta hall and joins him for a snack, hoping that she can uncover the reason behind his strength. The third match begins after Arata returns, wearing his grandfather's hakama. He recalls Chihaya telling him Harada-sensei will always be a mentor to them, and that he will not be able to win by being just Arata. Arata controls the flow of the game with his grandfather's style of play, an awful style of karuta that goes against ordinary conventions. Though struggling and falling behind, Harada-sensei is happy at the fact that he gets to play against the Eternal Meijin once more. His knees start to hurt again, before he sees the current Meijin Suou returning with Chihaya. Suou voices his excitement of possibly playing against Harada-sensei at the Meijin match.
