It's the Inter-High quarterfinals! Kaijo's Kise is challenging To-Oh's Aomine, and he's finally managed to copy Aomine's playing style. And with four fouls already, Aomine's not looking so hot.

The top schools from the Inter-High qualifiers are vying for the final spots, and with a revived Kiyoshi on their side, Seirin is like a whole new team!
