Game and Match
The shadow!
There is?
It's the shadow.
The shadow! And even.
It doesn't matter how many images of the ball in a row you can see, it only has one shadow.
Echizen is getting it right by paying attention to the shadow.
2-0. Echizen leading.
It was pure luck.
It could only have been luck!
If you think it was just luck...
...you can try as many times as you like!
Damn it!
She will pass this time!
3-0. Echizen leading.
My... My Illusion was... easily...
Echizen Ryoma!
D-Did you get this?
It is clear!
There is? What's the matter, Inoue-senpai?
What you mean?
Your hand!
Is nothing. I just got a little too excited.
Kevin is impressive for having a ball like that, but...
...Ryoma-kun is even more impressive for being able to return it!
What are these two?
Looks like the Illusion has been completely mastered, doesn't it?
It can not be...
And beyond that...
...Echizen's Cyclone Smash is sealed as long as Kevin doesn't send an easy ball...
...he hasn't been defeated yet.
This is bad.
Good luck, Kevin!
It doesn't matter if the Illusion is defeated!
For in the end, the winner will be...
I!
Don't do this, Kevin!
Excellent!
Cyclone Smash!
4-0. Echizen leading.
There's no way I can lose!
What are you doing?!
Kevin, you're fired!
Coach Baker!
The next time you use offensive language, you will be asked to leave!
More than anything... What is he doing? Oh...
Y-You are the...
Kevin, get up!
Get up, Kevin!
Will I...
...lose?
If I lose here...
...I'll look like my father!
No!
I'm different from my father!
I... I... won't lose!
What was this?
4-1. Echizen leading.
H-Did he send a Higuma Otoshi?
Wh-What's going on?
Kirihara's Ghost Ball...
4-3. Echizen leading.
You...
Higuma Otoshi and the Ghost Ball...
And even Cyclone Smash?
Isn't this the same performance played by Echizen in the Kantou Tournament?
Does that mean Kevin has pushed his limits too?
This is a person who has gone beyond imagination.
As?
He's not consciously moving, but...
... his body is reacting unconsciously, using the memory of what was previously experienced.
He is in a state, so to speak, which only those who have surpassed his limits can reach.
But Kevin never played a match against Oshitari and me.
Does that mean he perfected that technique just by watching?
He did!
Now it's time for the Invisible Swing!
The Cyclone again?
Echizen, don't send him! He'll return it with Higuma Otoshi!
What?!
5-3. Echizen leading.
Echizen... Ryoma...
You are incredible.
Father...
...his opponent was too...
...as awesome as this guy?
Game and departure for Echizen. 7-6.
You still have a lot to learn.
Your...
Echizen, very well.
Kevin!
It's your fault it's all over!
How are you going to fix this?
Why? Why are they reacting like this to Kevin's defeat...
Despite being defeated, he fought valiantly to the end, and...
...everyone was deeply touched by Kevin-kun's style of play.
Nakamura-san, what...
You will probably never understand this in your entire life, I think.
Good job guys.
Thanks for the effort.
A return bus has been arranged.
Get ready as soon as possible.
Hanamura-sensei.
Yes, Sanada-kun?
I'm worried about Kirihara's health.
I'd like to go have a look at it.
All good. He will probably enjoy hearing the result as well.
Well then, you can come with me.
Hanamura-sensei, I leave the rest in your hands.
All good.
Thanks.
Very good. Dismissed!
Why are you wasting time?!
Hurry!
It makes no sense to stay in this country any longer.
It looks like this is not the case...
...Baker-san.
What it was? Surely, you have no further business with me.
Even if I say I'm going to sponsor Team USA?
What?! What did you say?
I said, "I'll sponsor."
W-Why? Despite Kevin's defeat...
Even though it was a defeat, Takayama-san was deeply moved by Kevin-kun's departure.
Baker-san, you heard them too, didn't you? All those voices calling for "Kevin" after the match...
Why? Why are they reacting like this to Kevin's defeat...
That!
It wasn't just Kevin.
Billy...
...Bobby, Arnold, Tom, Terry, Michael...
You all had a good match.
I was impressed.
T-So why did you say your condition was that Kevin had to win the match?
You still don't understand, Baker-san?
She wasn't testing the players. She was testing you.
W-What did you say?
The problem wasn't the players. It was you.
Whether you would make a good business partner in the future or not...
But, unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case.
Come in, please.
You...
This is All-Japan Junior High Tennis Association Director Steve Meyers-san.
Well well! What official business does the Director of the Association take all this way?
This may be abrupt, but I'll get straight to the point.
We don't want to waste a minute, not even a second, do we?
With the end of the Friendlies between Japan and the United States...
...you have been released from the Association.
I-I didn't understand what you meant...
That's right Desk!
Team USA got a sponsor.
However, Coach Baker, the key figure, was disengaged from the Tennis Association.
It seems that he used the funds provided by the Association inappropriately in advertising.
Well, I thought the way he spent the money at that press conference was questionable.
Yes. This is the monthly scoop for Tennis Professional Monthly.
Let's swap this month's article for this one right away.
I watched the match on television.
Good job.
It was all thanks to Echizen's good work in the last game.
Yes. Good job, Echizen.
It cost.
How is Kirihara-kun doing?
Fortunately, it looks like it was nothing serious.
If he rests for two or three days, he should be fine...
...that's what I heard from Sanada.
Great.
So, Tezuka, next time is yours, isn't it?
That's right, Captain Tezuka!
How's his shoulder?
Will you be able to come back soon?
About that...
...I can't guarantee for sure, but...
...I intend to be back in time for the Nationals.
Brother, this way!
By the way, where did Kevin go?
Eh? Good...
He said he had some places to visit and left.
You!
Don't make a soft body!
30 more racket swings!
That Arai... He gets really excited when the regulars aren't here, doesn't he?
Let's go! Keep up those swings! Keep going!
Hey.
Hey, that one is...
You there! Whispering is prohibited!
Hey you!
What it was?
Hey how are you?
W-What do you want?
Do you want to go through it all again?
It's not that.
I came to apologize.
I'm very sorry.
So you went to apologize to all the schools you smashed?
Did you two do terrible things when you came to Japan before us?
Not me, Kevin already...
If it was something you had to apologize for, you shouldn't have done it.
Shut up. That's enough, isn't it? It's all in the past.
Hey!
We made it in time!
We came to see you off.
See us go?
Thanks.
Many things happened, but...
...was a good match.
If a new opportunity arises, we'll meet on the court.
Okay! When your shoulder is healed!
The rumor that you are a good player has even reached the United States.
It's not just Captain Tezuka!
We will be your next opponents!
Oh! I will be looking forward to it!
I'll be back.
Take care.
Good luck.
Goodbye.
Goodbye!
Good job!
Eh...
Where is Kevin?
Oh! He disappeared again...
He's type B. There's no doubt about it.
Mama...
...I was defeated by Ryoma Echizen.
But I will not give up!
So for Dad too...
Attention passengers on Flight 846 to Los Angeles...
...start boarding.
So I'm going home.
Ryoma Echizen, the next time we meet, I will win without a doubt.
Come when you want.
Until then, take care.
You too.
Until later.
Hey, where did you go?
In a place...

Next episode
W-What's the matter, Echizen?
Like this?
This guy is cheating.
If we get arrested we won't be able to participate in the Nationals and then...
How are we going to tell the others?
I have no idea...
But we didn't do anything wrong, Momo-senpai.
Right! I'll get the money!
On the next episode of The Prince of Tennis: Run, Momo!
Wait for me, Echizen!
Run, Momo!
