Episode 10 Plot: With Tsubasa unable to play, Shingo decides to withdraw from the tournament. The team is distressed about the loss of their pair, and the Tsukinose-Ishigami pair agree to let the other pairs handle scoring wins, but Shingo orders them not to slack off. While Maki and Toma are on a shopping trip, they run into Oji, who goads Maki into making him noodles. They then run into the Itsuse brothers, the defending national pair champions from the last year's tournament, and they taunt Oji. The next day at practice, Kinuyo visits the club and tells them that to save the club, they need to win only one match, which seems to be difficult given the bracket for the tournament. The day of the tournament arrives, and first up are Rintaro and Itsuki. While they take a 2-0 lead, Rintaro's leg cramps up and they lose the match. Next are Nao and Taiyo, who employ a strategy that involves running across the court to prevent their opponents from reading their movements. They take the match to the fifth set, but run out of stamina and lose the match.
