### Summary
The intense pressure of the national stage claims its first victim as Tsubakihara Academy's pinch server, Aoi Himekawa, buckles under the weight of the moment. Tasked with turning the tide against a formidable Karasuno, his high-stakes serve goes disastrously awry, hitting the ceiling in a comical but telling display of nerves. The error stands in stark contrast to the readiness of Karasuno's own bench player, Hisashi Kinoshita, who has finally stepped onto the court, proving that every member of the "fallen crows" is now a weapon forged in the fires of their previous struggles.
