<Tr> <Th> 73 </Th> <Td> 23 </Td> <Td> "Why don't we give up" "Akiramemasen ka" (諦め ませ ん か) </Td> <Td> June 13, 2015 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="4"> Faced by Akashi's huge zone of defence, Kagami despairs, having reached the bottom of the zone, but seeing no way to open the "door". Kuroko suggests they give up relying solely on Kagami for now, and offers to take some of the burden . By watching and predicting Kagami's movement, Kuroko becomes Kagami's "eye" and is able to intercept Akashi . Although stunned, Akashi catches up and attempts to stop Kagami, but is intercepted again by Kuroko . One last time, Akashi attempts to intercept Kagami's dunk, but Kagami, with his teammates supporting him, manages to crack open the "door" within the zone and scores . Akashi misses a goal, and has fallen out of the Zone . A voice inside Akashi starts telling him to give - up . Rakuzan calls a time out with 5 minutes left in the game, and the score 92 - 90 . Just as Rakuzan's coach is about to sub Akashi out, Mayuzumi chastises Akashi, asking rhetorically "Who are you?", which triggers an internal dialogue with his other self . Akashi strove for victory in order to keep his team together and in his weakness he created his other self . But then he started playing for victory itself, forgetting why . Now, his two selves appear to merge, or perhaps switch places, and, echoing his words to Kuroko in middle school, aloud he declares himself "Akashi Seijuro". </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 74 </Th> <Td> 24 </Td> <Td> "So It Was You" "Omaedattan janē ka" (お前 だっ た んじゃ ねー か) </Td> <Td> June 20, 2015 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="4"> Akashi starts supporting the team by setting up perfect opportunities which also boosts their morale . The watching members of the Generation of Miracles recognise Akashi's old self . Seirin still manage to score, but Akashi enters the zone again and Akashi's support draws out his team members' potentials, making them enter an imperfect version of the zone, possible because they are members of the "Uncrowned Kings". Kagami is the only one who can stand against them, but reaches his physical limits, and exits the zone . The rest of Seirin are also exhausted and Seirin has no more time outs left . Suddenly, Kuroko's friend, Ogiwara, cheers from the audience, bringing Kuroko to tears . Aomine, Kise, Midorima and other past opponents adds their cheers, and the crowd starts to chant for Seirin . With the Rakuzan in the lead, 103 - 96 and 2 minutes left in the game, Kagami talks with the team, and manages to fully open the "door within the zone", unveiling the "True Zone", which is team play at the speed of the zone (possible because of the bond between the team members). Aomine realises that the person in front of the "door" is not a gatekeeper, but Kuroko, leading the way to team play . Seirin manage to score a two - pointer, but Akashi counters with a two pointer, and is not going to allow Seirin to win that easily . </Td> </Tr>
