In Episode 11, Futaba endured his arm pain a bit longer and somehow pulled off his performance perfectly. No one in the audience could figure out what he was going through.
However, it’s too early to celebrate since the result isn’t out yet. To win Northeast Japan Sports Tournament, they must beat Shiro High’s remarkable score of 18.
Was the performance good enough to beat the defending champions? We bring you the latest episode updates for this anime.
1. Episode 12 Speculation
Episode 12 will show us the final scores of the Northeast Japan Sports Tournament. Considering Ao High’s flawless performance and how well they covered the entire stage, they may beat Shiro High’s score.
Even if they don’t, I am sure that the performance was good enough to qualify for Inter-High. They will probably be looking forward to the Inter-High, hoping that they can make a mark there.
Right now, I am more concerned about Futaba’s hand injury. He will most likely be taken to the hospital immediately. Coach Shida is very cautious since he doesn’t want his students to share the same fate as him.

3. Episode 11 Recap
In Episode 11, Futaba continues to suffer from his hand injury. Sichigahama being the captain, decides to take Futaba to a clinic, and he can only participate if the doctor approves.
Misato accompanies Futaba to the doctor, who prescribes him to take atleast two weeks break. Everyone fears that trying to perform in this condition may cause permanent damage to his hand.
Coach Shida remembers how he ruined his rhythmic gymnastics career but ignoring an injury. He doesn’t want Futaba to go through the same hardships.
Despite all the risks, Futaba requests his team to let him perform along their side. He doesn’t want everyone’s dream to end for a hand injury. Even Misato proposes that winning as six is better than losing as five.
After carefully analyzing the situation, Coach Shida permits Futaba to take part. However, he gives a few conditions according to which Futaba will be benched if the injury gets any worse and he shouldn’t warm up before the performance.
Shiro High, Ao High’s arch-rival, has already impressed everyone by scoring a remarkable 18 points. The only way to win the tournament is to beat them, and that is only possible if they perform as a team of six.
The episode ends with Ao High’s performance that awes the audience. But is it enough to beat the benchmark that Shiro High has set? We will find that out in the next episode.
