Manji tells the team that he wants to step down from his regular spot. He believes that with his current skills, he will not be able to help Kirisaki. The team respects his decision and replaces him with Kabashima. Manji’s brother Senichi is worried for him and promises to give him his full support.
After the meeting, Shu goes home where he sees his sister Sae waiting for him. She tells Shu that she wants to watch him shoot at the regional tournament. Shu points out that she has a piano lesson on that day and suggests her not miss it for the match.
On the day of the Regional High School Tournament, Minato leaves home early. He meets up with Seiya and together they reach the tournament venue.
The venue is filled with participants from various schools. Minato finds the atmosphere exciting. Ryouhei is quite nervous about performing well at the tournament.

The scene where Minato shoots is quite aesthetic. Kazemai moves on to the next stage with 16 hits. Sae is completely fascinated and finds Kyudo incredible.
After the match, Masaki gives Minato feedback. Minato is surprised by how detailed his observation can be. Ryouhei finds that one of his arrows is missing and looks for a potential replacement but is unable to find any.
Minato suggests that Shu can lend him one of his spare arrows as his build is similar to that of Ryouhei. Despite his doubts, Ryouhei finds Shu unexpectedly friendly too which Minato responds that Shu has been a friendly person by nature.
On their way back, Minato meets Eisuke Nikaido, his senior from junior high. They briefly catch up. Nikaido and his team leave for their match.
