As the final bout rages on, the team members all come to their own realizations about what sumo really means to them. Who will be victorious and make it to the top?!
His goal is to become a professional sumo wrestler! Ushio Hinomaru goes to visit Ishigami High School, famous for it's sumo program, but arrives at Odachi High School by mistake. There he meets Ozeki Shinya whose dojo has been overrun by delinquents.
The score is 1-1 as Yuma's bout against Kanamori begins. Before the match, Yuma went to the dojo where he learned karate before becoming a delinquent. He apologizes to the master for the things he's done.
Kei has been practicing the reverse, which some consider a dishonorable technique. Hinomaru fights head-on, and Kei worries that he'll stain it. Even so, he wants to get one win for the team, and faces an opponent far larger than himself.
Shibakiyama takes Hinomaru to a clinic he trusts to treat his arm. The clinic's Dr. Kanie initially refuses, saying that urgent treatment won't help because Dachi High won't beat a powerhouse like Kanazawa Kita High.
After an initial draw with Rion, Kirihito overcomes his lungs to instantly defeat is opponent in the follow-up bout. Despite a few losses during the tournament, the Dachi club's spirits remain high!
Kirihito orders the club members to harvest seaweed and do many other strange things, like standing on an unsteady boat to improve their balance. The club members admire Kirihito's methods, but have doubts about his experience and abilities.
