Teacher remember what Arata said (about him not joining the individual tournament and just support his teammates) so he's wondering what made Arata said such a thing. whether he;s frustrated about losing to that pretty girl (Chihaya) or because their team lost.
Everyone's surprised because Arata and Shinobu are not too strong this year unlike last year.
Yoroshiko is scared and then he remember about what happened to his match with Hyoro
Nishida saw Chihaya and looking at her you can see that she is putting up a good fight.
Then he remember what Chihaya said about Taichi coming back so for the meantime she will become the Queen and make Mizusawa a karuta powerhouse like Hokuo and then he thought "so she will have to become the Queen first,does that mean it will be easier to beat Wakamiya than to make Mizusawa into a karuta powerhouse". But then he thought that if someday, Mizusawa became a karuta powerhouse then he'll also become one of it's foundations. Then he took the next card. Nishida made a call and Chihaya heard it, so Shinobu got annoyed.
Rion also made a team call and Yoroshiko heard it which annoyed Shinobu even more.
Murao stopped them because it's an individual game not team matches.
Shinobu's kimono is so heavy that it's so hard to move.
She tried putting on Tasuki but she doesn't know how so Chihaya offered to help her.
Shinobu won and said that Chihaya is strong but too bad the high school competition is over and she hope there will be next time, Chihaya said there is next time, in Queen Tournament.
In response, Shinobu makes this face
