This chapter is like the calm before the storm. Everyone is pretty much polishing up their performance. Exams are coming soon. They most likely will be able to pull that off with Tetsuki’s help. It is nice that they acknowledge his contribution to the club even if he isn’t playing.
I’m curious though about the part when Natsu muses aloud that he is close with Chika. Was it a casual remark or he knows more? I just wondered about it because of the last part of the chapter and Tetsuki’s reaction to that remark.

The TV program seems to have a more or less positive impression from those who watch it. I expected something from the competitors = new conflict but it turns out that the author is going to focus on Chika’s past next with his former friends finding it interesting.
I guess they would most likely cause trouble and might involve the other club members. That is because they got Chika’s grandfather involved with their disagreement with him. So, will they just try to ruin Chika’s reputation again or just force him to quit the club?
Anyway, most likely, with this new issue...on how they’ll overcome it, they can finally finish up how they’ll play the piece. Perhaps, the theme would be something coming out of like protecting Chika and their group to complete their goal of playing together in the Nationals one last time.
