The other semifinal between Kaijo and Fukuda Sogo begins. For Kise, Haizaki is a nemesis that he has not once won against. Being on Teiko Middle School's starting lineup, Haizaki's skills were definitely there, but due to his arrogant attitude that ignores the rest of the team, the Kaijo team members feel anger against him.

Haizaki's ability allows him to "steal" any move he sees instead of simply copying it. Unable to use any of their special plays, Kaijo is on the ropes. Even Kise, who possesses numerous moves due to his copy ability, begins running out of moves he can use as the game progresses. Source: crunchyroll
