### Summary
The spotlight swivels from the court's giants to Karasuno's fiery wing spiker, Ryuunosuke Tanaka, whose boisterous personality is put to the test. A chance encounter brings him face-to-face with his childhood friend, Kanoka Amanai, an ambitious player from the Niiyama Girls' team. Her appearance introduces a classic "childhood friend" dynamic, forcing a re-examination of Tanaka's well-known and over-the-top crush on team manager Kiyoko Shimizu and sparking questions about the true nature of his affections. Meanwhile, a humorous bath scene provides a moment of levity for the first-year boys, containing subtle foreshadowing that perceptive teammates like Ennoshita might have seen coming.
