Akutsu wants to "pay back" Omagari since he had to stay up until 5am to clean the library because of the mess those two made the night before. The audience are amazed with Akutsu's movements. While the begiinijng of the match focused on Akutsu, Sanada finally uses one of his special techniques, Fire (Ka) Omagari is unimpressed. He hits the ball past Sanada, who resorts to using Lightning (Rai). Tanegashima has no issue returning Lightning and send Sanada's racket flying with a hole in its gut. The first string scores the first game. Tanegashima reveals there is no ball he cannot return.
