Shohoku has a lead to protect against Ryonan in this Slam Dunk continuation. VIZ emphasizes fatigue and Anzai's absence, so this paperback suits readers following how the team functions when its earlier effort has become a cost. Keep it with the surrounding Ryonan installments. The practical appeal is a change from pursuing an advantage to maintaining one, making the book more useful in a continuous match reading than as an isolated purchase.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
A lead can conceal a worsening position. The publisher's synopsis describes Shohoku's attack exhausting the players while their weaknesses become exposed without Anzai's guidance. Sakuragi's inexperience is among those limits. That makes the volume a useful selection for readers interested in team management: the scoreboard and the capacity to keep playing need not move together. Buy it in the Ryonan sequence to preserve the relationship between the effort spent and the trouble that follows. The advantage still exists, but the means of defending it have become less secure.
