Episode Title:
Honoka Will Help You!.
Episode Description:
Kenichi has never once beaten Miu at sparring and believes that because he has no natural talent for martial arts he will never become a master no matter how much he trains. Apachai cannot beat Honoka at Othello. Sakaki and Kensei both play against Apachai only to lose straight away. Even Akisame only wins by a single point, which shocks everybody who had no idea Apachai was a master of Othello. Kenichi realises that dedication to his training is all he needs to improve and vows to do so. He wonders if Honoka, who has never lost to Apachai, might be able to beat Akisame. Akisame practises playing Othello. Tanimoto, aka Hermit, returns to Ragnarok, having been training for his rematch with Kenichi. Honoka sees delinquents harassing Tanimoto and tries to protect him. Tanimoto ends up saving Honoka, unaware she is Kenichi's sister, and takes her to his home when she is injured. Honoka feels sorry for him when she realises he lives alone. She insists on cooking for him, despite Tanimoto's demands for her to leave. Tanimoto has a flashback of his sister, and though Honoka's cooking is nearly inedible he eats it but becomes angry when Honoka finds a picture of his sister. Honoka teases him over the face he makes when he is fighting, making him laugh. At Ryozanpaku Dojo Honoka beats Apachai at Othello again. The masters wonder if, with training, she might be a better martial artist than Kenichi.
