Sora’s new strategy has put him in the crosshairs of the defense, and things are looking bleak. Luckily for him, Kuzu High’s secret weapon is ready to take the court.

Dedication. Perseverance. Commitment. These are the qualities that make a basketball champion — and thanks to Konishi, Momoharu isn’t sure if he possesses any of them.

After a sleepless night, the first match of the tournament has arrived. But Kuzu High isn’t the only team pinning their dreams on this game.

As the end of the game draws near, the players of Kuzu High push themselves to the limit. Only one thing’s for certain: Stamina will decide their fate.

It may be raining, but nothing can douse Sora and his teammates’ fiery passion for basketball. Proving that passion to the administration, however, is another matter entirely.

At rock bottom, the only way to go is up. Tobi knows this all too well, and he’s determined to take Kuzu High all the way to the top! But first they need to take Taiei down…

Once they find the spark that sets them alight, Kuzu High will not be stopped. The spark that sets Sora ablaze? Another player who will bring out his full potential.
