Absolutely stunning! I always loved the visuals especially during the competition and we can see the tension rising every second. Thank goodness they work better as a team. If you watch this episode, don't forget to watch the post credit scene. It hits my heart like an arrow!

Synopsis
"Tsurune"—It's the sound made by the bowstring when an arrow is released, and the sound that inspired Minato Narumiya to learn kyudo, a modern Japanese martial art focusing on archery. However, an incident during his last middle school tournament caused him to quit the sport. But soon, many factors conspire to make Minato take up the bow once again: the start of a new kyudo club in his high school, a chance encounter with a mysterious archer, and the support of his childhood friends, Seiya Takehaya and Ryouhei Yamanouchi. Together with his childhood friends and his new teammates, Kaito Onogi and Nanao Kisaragi, Minato rekindles his love for kyudo and works with his team toward their aim of winning the prefectural tournament.

Quick Takes
View all 39 takesI love the fact that this episode feels very realistic. The absence of someone very important to the team makes it difficult for them to maintain their composure. The team spirit they show in this episode touches my fragile heart. I can't wait to watch the next episode!
This episode focuses more on Masaki and his reason's for being a Kyudo coach. Adults have a hard time keeping a mask on and making it seem like they have everything in control. The ending was quite heartbreaking and I wonder what the team will do to handle the shocking news!
