Giant Killing Vol. 40 (Kodansha, 2023)

Eight matches remain in the league season, and ETU's still within arm's reach of the title-and if that isn't enough good news, Team Japan's just come knocking on their players' doors again! But somehow, their manager seems less than thrilled about this. When a team's hot, after all, that's exactly when they need to watch out for pitfalls! It's an important lesson to remember as they face off against Kofu-and against Tatsumi's former teammate Ishihama!
