I can't predict the story of next chapter at all. While Achiga-hen ending is easy to see, it's very hard to predict how the story progress.

These are what in my head

Spoiler for little text wall:

- What will happen to Toki? If looking 2 turns ahead really have bad effect on her body, would she risks to use it in this match? and what's about her "3 armies" power? are we going to see it somehow?

- What can Ryuuka do? Does she have any power or she's just skilled normal player? I guess that she is #3 in the team after Toki and Cela.

- Are there still any hope for Kuro? Will her power suddently get upgrade?

- What can Arata and Shizuno do????

- What is the true power of Shindouji?? Are they "tsuruga" of side-a??? (Kiyosumi said Shindouji is pretty strong in main manga) One of their player seem to be good logical player.

- Will we see Teru's nine gates in side-a???

- How strong are the rest of Shiratodai members? especially Awai, who is set to be the final boss of the team competition for Saki.

Right now, it's start to hard for me to decide which team to cheer for. Achiga or Senriyama. While I want Achiga to win and get to play with Kiyosumi, I also don't want Senriyama to lose. Toki, Ryuuka, and Cela are all 3rd year, so this will be their last chance to win the National in High school. Ryuuka will probably cry when her team lost in Semi-final due to her mistake T_T

Only 4 days? Awesome! And hey, right at the same time Keima returns from his break. That's going to be a good day.

I am, however, quite worried about

Spoiler for What will happen?:

Toki pushing herself so hard, especially after seeing her struggle with her regular level of power in the anime, she really looked bad by the end. What if she literally passes out when the match is over? I mean, it could happen, especially since we're talking about Teru. She could literally be sending someone to the hospital in the next chapter

I'm afraid hope abandoned Kuro a long time ago.

Shizuno looks to be perfectly normal, except for that downright shounen spirit of hers, which I admit could come useful when battling monsters the size of Shiraitodai. Arata is still an enigma in that department. Personally, I would like for her to be normal but still pull off a surprise victory (or even pulling a hax power out of nowhere) in the name of her beloved Haru-chan, and Saki (the series) being like it is, you know it could easily happen.

We'll definetly be seeing just how strong Awai is in achiga-hen, since she'll essentially be the final boss. Now, you could say Senriyama will be the final boss, and it would make sense, especially if something does happen to Toki, because then Ryuuka will be out for blood, but we're talking about one of the most expected characters for the entire fanbase (Or at least I think she is), it would be a downright waste not to use Awai, and as I said before, Shizuno has quite the shounen spirit, so she could decide to try take some of the absolute domination imposed by Shiraitodai (assuming the other girls besides Teru are monsters as well) and go for the bigshot for the big climax, as a way of saying "Achiga will not play second fiddle to you!" or something along those lines, and if things go that way, you'll definetly need to have Awai being as threatening and dominating as possible.

That would be a battle to behold: Teru's (alleged) wife, heartbroken wife looking for revenge, and the hopeful young lover fighting against all odds to reach her old love. Sounds corny as hell? Well, that's Saki for you.
