Rou once chased figure-skating glory. Now he chases redemption in the ice hockey rink!

Rou and the other Oinokami first-year students survived their first day on the ice hockey team and made the cut, but their training has only just begun. Despite the warm days of summer, Oinokami moves ahead, practicing in indoor ice rinks. The former team captain, Higuchi, has come back to town, but guilt over the team's loss has taken him down a dark path. Will the new team members follow him? Then it's time for the first-years to play in their first real game, against the decidedly delinquent players of Sekka High.
