The students discuss the results of the day's games, and they all agree that they've lost three out of four. They're bummed that they haven't won yet, but they're glad that Hirokazu has come to cheer them up. He's a good kid, and he looks like he's got a good future ahead of him. He also tells them that he works as an editor for a shonen fighting magazine, which means he has a lot of work to do before he'll be able to publish his first story. He tells the students that he and his mom decided to send their manuscripts in for a fight, but then his mom threw them away. So he took a little break from school to finish the manuscript, and then he went back to school to do it again. He says he'd like to eat dinner with them now, since he knows they'll have to help him with his work. He thanks them for always being patient with him.
