Moshidora

Episode 3

Despite showing some initial improvement, Minami notices the team being less motivated following a week of exams, with many members skipping practise. After school, Minami encounters Yūnosuke Sakurai opting for karaoke instead of practise, saying he's not worthy to be on the team following some of his slip-ups in the previous game. Looking to Management, she looks into 'consumerism', believing the absensees to be a form of boycott against the way they practise. Minami and Yuki ask Ayano for her help, who determines most players who only show up for games because of its competitive nature compared to practise. With this information, she and Makoto set up a new training exercise focused around teams and points which encourages the players to be more responsible and strive to improve themselves. Later, Keiichirō asks Minami to try and get Yūnosuke to rejoin practise, but he continues to avoid her. However, his friend Hanae Chin manages to make him listen to what Minami has to say, which includes how Keiichirō was able to improve because of his mistakes. After convincing Yūnosuke to resume practise, Minami gets Hanae to join the team before finding herself being approached by several club captains about managing their clubs.
