Tamakoma Second 6

This is about the chapter. For other uses, see Tamakoma Second (disambiguation).

Short Summary
Tamakoma Second wins their battle against Suwa Squad and Arafune Squad.

Long Summary
Sasamori holds onto Yūma as Suwa prepares to shoot him. Usami cues Chika to shoot at the same time, saving Yūma. Sasamori Bails Out; however, Arafune uses the opportunity to shoot Chika, causing her to Bail Out. Since Suwa lost a leg, Yūma uses Grasshopper to try to outmaneuver him. Suwa had prepared for this, though, and quickly changed direction to shoot Yūma, but Osamu appears and shoots down Suwa and Arafune, giving victory to Tamakoma Second.

Arafune is congratulated by his comrades for managing to get at least a single point, whereas Suwa is chided for not getting a point at all by his Squad. Reflecting on the battle, Azuma notes that Tamakoma Second won because they stuck to their objectives: tear apart formations, and effectively use Yūma. Kodera explains that they chose the specific topography to pressure Suwa Squad to get to the top to avoid Arafune Squad's advantage. Kuroe summarizes it as getting the other teams to play by their rules; the two opponents could only react to what Tamakoma Second did.

As the ranks updated, Tamakoma Second moved to #8, while Suwa Squad and Arafune Squad respectively descended to #10 and #11. Tamakoma Second's next match was on February 8; against Suzunari First who is 9th and Nasu Squad who is 13th.
