Synopsis

Match Summaries Tezuka vs. Atobe The Singles 1 matchup of the Kanto Regionals features the two team captains: Seishun's Kunimitsu Tezuka and Hyoutei's Keigo Atobe. The match is intense and closely contested, with Seishun's tournament run depending on Tezuka's performance. Atobe refuses to let Hyoutei fall early in the competition—he's set on beating Tezuka by finding and exploiting whatever weaknesses he can. Inui-Kaidou vs. Shishido-Ootori Seishun's newly formed doubles team of Sadaharu Inui and Kaoru Kaidou take on Hyoutei's Ryou Shishido and Choutarou Ootori. Before the match, Inui pitches the idea to Kaidou that teaming up could push them both beyond their current limits. For Shishido, this is his chance to prove he deserves his spot on the regular roster—he needs this win. Oishi-Kikumaru vs. Niou-Yagyuu At the Kanto Regional Finals, Seishun's celebrated "Golden Pair" of Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi face off against Rikkai's Masaharu Niou and Hiroshi Yagyuu. The match starts well for Seishun, but Niou and Yagyuu gradually shift their strategy, making things increasingly difficult. As the Golden Pair struggle, their history as a team comes into focus. Fuji vs. Kirihara In Singles 2 at the Kanto Regional Finals, Seishun's "Genius" Shuusuke Fuji battles Rikkai's second-year star Akaya Kirihara. Kirihara confidently declares he'll win in just 13 minutes—a claim that Fuji finds pretty amusing. When the match stretches on longer than expected, Kirihara turns to a more aggressive style. Now Fuji has to think fast and adapt if he wants to come out on top.
