There's something about facing an opponent you have lost to in the past. Oishi tenses up, seeing the faces of the Minami-Higashikata pair of Yamabuki Chuu that defeated him last year.
But before he knows it, Eiji is flicking his nose.
"Oishi… get tense only after I get tired, okay?" his 'golden partner' says nonchalantly, turning towards the net with his finger still in the air.
Oishi's whole body relaxes as he watches the acrobatic player's back, the familiar sight immensely calming.
That's right… things are different this time. He isn't the same as last year.
He has Eiji now.
