Sho Taniguchi is with us, he is down in Achiga City and the Girls' Academy, where they are enjoying themselves. Sho, what's going on over there?
Sho: High spirits and high hopes for an upset. The musical troupe Green Leaves is performing their smash hit "Yatta!" and everyone is dancing along to the music. It's a cloudy evening down in Nara but there is no rain, and that is a good thing. The hope here is that Kuro Matsumi, who is currently leading Hisa Takei in this contest, will pull off the "Upset of the Century" against Toki Onjouji but they are aware that if it doesn't happen, they shouldn't be surprised. To get this far, and to see the Dragon Lord finish this high is already a victory in and of itself. That's the scene down in Achiga, we'll send it back to you.
