Sawakita complicates Shohoku's recovery against Sannoh in this Slam Dunk paperback. VIZ describes the deficit narrowing through Sakuragi's rebounds before focusing on Sannoh's star. Choose this as a continuation for readers particularly interested in Rukawa and Sakuragi being tested within the same contest. It belongs with the surrounding Sannoh books, where the remaining time and accumulated effort give the individual comparison a cost beyond a simple ranking of player talent.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
Rebounding creates a route back, but the opponent can answer that route. VIZ's synopsis pairs Sakuragi's contribution with the challenge of Sawakita and frames both Sakuragi and Rukawa as needing to reassess their games. The useful buying argument is the interruption of a solution that had begun to work. This is a better selection for someone following the players' changing responsibilities than for someone wanting an isolated demonstration of superiority. Read it after the earlier Sannoh pressure so the reassessment has something concrete to revise. Recovery does not stop the opponent from acting.
