Blue Box Episode 7 recap
Titled Can I Have One? Blue Box Episode 7 begins with Taiki and Chinatsu preparing for their respective tournaments. Taiki trains hard in badminton but loses a match to Haryu, who warns him not to let losing become a habit.
During practice, Nishida jokes about Haryu’s past loss to Hyōdō from Sajikawa, which Haryu brushes off, reminding Taiki of their eventual singles match. After practice, Taiki spots Chinatsu with heavy bags and offers to help.
They humorously pretend to be strangers, turning the interaction playful. They later visit a shrine where Taiki prays for both of them to reach Nationals in Blue Box Episode 7. Chinatsu’s basketball team wins their first prefectural match but faces dismissive remarks from their next opponents, Kagohara Academy.
Chinatsu remains composed, resolving to let her performance speak for her. Inspired by her focus, Taiki doubles down on training, eventually winning a set against Haryu, though Haryu quickly counters with a new move.
Later, during a casual moment, Chinatsu jokes about being “jealous” of Hina, leaving Taiki confused and flustered in Blue Box Episode 7.
