Saki

Saki and Nodoka play mahjong; Nodoka wins but questions Saki's playing style and asks for another game.

Even though winning has been a difficult feat for Saki, Hisa proposes a mini-match to test Saki's true potential and reveal her hidden ability.

Everyone senses that Nodoka feels uneasy when Saki plays; meanwhile, Hisa and Mako are nominated by their prefecture to participate in a high school's mahjong tournament.

Saki and Nodoka are at Mako's house helping with the family's store; Hisa begins to talk about training when she really has something else up her sleeve.

Saki and Yuki's special training begins; Nodoka begins to think like Hisa, which causes her to become timid in her play.

Saki strays away from the group and sees a someone from Ryuumonbuchi High School, whose group won last year's team championship.
