### Summary
The fated "Battle of the Garbage Dump" concludes not with a climactic spike, but with a quiet, sweat-soaked ball slipping from a player's grasp—an ending symbolic of the exhaustive war of attrition. The true victory transcends the scoreboard, belonging to Nekoma's brilliant setter, Kenma Kozume. For the first time, he admits to his rival and friend, Shoyo Hinata, that the game was genuinely "fun," bringing their long-standing rivalry to a deeply satisfying and emotional peak. Drained but content, the players from both teams share a moment of mutual respect, fulfilling a dream decades in the making for their coaches.
