Slam Dunk

Hanamichi learns about the slam dunk.

After Rukawa beats up those thugs, Hanamichi is shocked and asks him for his name. When he discovers that he is the one that Haruko has a crush on, he becomes angry. Then, Haruko comes and helps Rukawa with his wounds, but he dismisses her and this makes Hanamichi very angry. Haruko mistakes Hanamichi for injuring Rukawa and she says that she hates Hanamichi. Hanamichi's world comes tumbling down again.

Gori and Hanamichi's confrontation continues, and the condition for the 1 on 1 game is set.

Akagi refuses to acknowledge Hanamichi's spot on the team.

Though one week has passed since the rookie, Hanamichi, is accepted into the team, he finds himself practicing dribbling in the corner of the court.

Coach Anzai comes into the scene.
