cote Year 2 Volume 11 Reaction

the archery

Now we will begin the sessions

At times like this, I wonder if we'll face Nagumo's group in the final 19th
match.
That's what you might think, but things don't always go as planned.
In the 17th match, with two personal defeats, we clashed with the still-
undefeated Nagumo group.

Ryuen:kukuku so exciting
Sakayanagi:fufufu indeed ryuen
Ichinose:when is this happening
Kanzaki:I think it might be the mixed training camp in our second year

Following a game of table tennis, the upcoming game was 'archery,' making
it the second 'archery' match in the exchange meeting.
In this case, doesn't it work in our favor that the game isn't solely based on
craftsmanship or luck? Archery, a skill-based activity, provided an interesting
opportunity for others to shine.

Katsuragi:setting aside,ayanokoji seems to have a knowledge of archery
Akita:yaa the way u r describing it

Matshushita pov

Nagumo was present as their leader, but he didn't speak up.
This time, Nagumo and I had a personal bet, but few knew about it.
Even the first-year students who had been ordered to gather information
might not know the details.

What ayanokoji Kun has a personal bet with nagumo
Matshushita:ayanokoji Kun what do u mean by personal bet
Nagumo:hahahahha u can't win against me ayanokoji,it's better for u if u surrender
Shinohara :yaa playing a bet against him is dangerous ayanokoji Kun
Hirata:guys first let's watch the video we should not make conclusion

"So, why are you here, Morishita?"
"Of course, I'm here to do archery. I came to fight."
Her results yesterday were disastrous, but she was still trying to participate
without being discouraged?
Looking at Kiryūin, she gave a sincere nod. It seemed she had accepted
Morishita's participation.
"That's how it is. You can think of it as being on the winning ship,
Ayanokōji Kiyotaka."
"Let's hope it's not a sinking ship."

Muffled laughs could be heard
Nene:ayanokoji u should speak ur mind more open
Onodera:yaa
Morishita:it will not be a sinking ship ayanokoji kiyotaka

She seemed to say full name without any honorific and yet so polite

The instructor started speaking again, explaining safety procedures to
students who had never handled archery before and for those who had, he
repeatedly emphasized the importance of learning the correct shooting form.
Unlike the original rules, the format was to switch teams after shooting six
arrows instead of taking turns one after the other.
Hashimoto, who had seen the five opponents, approached and whispered in
my ear.
"Katsuragi apparently practiced quite a bit yesterday, and he scored a
maximum of 36 points. There's a chance you could lose if you face him."
I was impressed by his thorough research as I reflected on myself.
Yesterday, my scores were 2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 9, for a total of 30 points.
I understood his concern, but to put it bluntly, I probably wouldn't lose to
Katsuragi.
The problem was elsewhere. Soon, the match-ups were announced.

Katsuragi:ayanokoji do u have experience with archery,u seem to be confident
Akito:yaa
Ryuen:kukuku
Sakaysnagi:fufufu
Ayanokoji:no i don't know
Matshushita:scratch that what do u mean by the problem is elsewhere
Ayanokoji :how would I know

"Nagumo had skillfully arranged for our opponents to match our fixed
positions in the lineup."
"Nice to meet you, Senpai."
"Your opponent is a first-year girl. You're lucky."
